What does Sup Forums think of SAO?

What does Sup Forums think of SAO?

That it's not only garbage, it's by far the weakest out of the "waaah I'm stuck in a Sup Forumsideo game" stories which have existed for like fifteen years.

why are you asking a question you know the answer to

I think most of Sup Forums hates it for some reason. But I find it quiet good. Love story was pretty cute.

>dude what if we came up with a premise that's like 100% foolproof impossible to fuck up, and yet, somehow, like, totally fucked it up beyond recognition

Only redeeming character from the franchise.

Fanservice in the series isn't bad either

what do you mean?

First 14 episodes were alright, then it became a shitfest.

Don't pretend that this premise was originally to begin with

Juvenile Edgelord Fantasy who's “too cool” for party members in an attempt to make self-inserters feel like a lone wolf badass yet parties up with the most bland and boring member of the female cast. The “romance” was also shit.

I hate it frankly

That character is a literal turd tho.

The premise is retarded and has always been retarded though.
The only way to make it not retarded is to go the Overlord route of making the video game world the real world and dropping all the video game aspects from the get go, but at that point you might as well not bother with the video game shit at all.

I only liked the cousin.

>2 YEARS WORTH
>GLOP

That's about all I can think of, even after watching it

the Progressive manga and the movie kinda saved it for me

To be fair wouldn't you glop two years worth into this?

SAO: 6/10
Fairy Dance: 3/10
Phantom Bullet: 5/10
Calibur: 1/10
Mother's Rosario: 6/10
Prove me wrong. Pro tip: you can't

It's trash. We all know it's trash. Anyone who says otherwise is either a newfag who just doesn't know better or a contrarian.

Still overrated shit.

>Calibur: 1/10
I'd rate it a little higher just for the Sinon and Kirito interactions. Those two actually have some good (platonic) chemistry.

6/10 it's okay. I didn't feel anything special about it that warrants the hate.

First episode had a little bit of promise, then it went off the shitrails. Gun Gale was the only season with a slight bit of enjoyment cause Sinon's PTSD was an interesting concept, but JESUS-KUN KIRITO had to ruin that too.

I think most of the undeserved hate is a reaction to all the undeserved praise it gets.

There's nothing praiseworthy about the show (maybe beyond character designs), yet a lot of people consider it one of the greatest shows of the last decade.

It's a masterpiece by all standards, but people who consider themselves special for watching anime can't stand the fact that normal people enjoy it, so they gotta hate it to be cool. There's absolutely nothing wrong with SAO and it's just getting better next season.

>making the video game world the real world
>not retarded

Okay

>yet a lot of people consider it one of the greatest shows of the last decade
Only people new to anime think that, and who cares about their opinion really? Unless you purposely went to shitholes like facebook or youtube you would never see those people.

>people new to anime
I think it's the same thing with Attack on Titan. While it's not AS shit it isn't the best thing ever like a lot of them claim. WAY too many AoT cosplayers on conventions too.

Its not as bad as some people make it out to be (and i saw worse shows)

Is it good? No, but its not the worst thing ever, the action scenes look good and the animation isnt really awful

Actually, the only really bad thing is the bland as fuck main character

The porn is great!

The series is nothing special, but most people shitposted threads into oblivion because its the type of show that attracts filth to the board.
Though nowadays we even have shounenshit plaguing the board and its generally okay to talk about the series since its fallen out of grace with most normalfags.

>promises mmo anime in the first episode
>transforms into a generic romance fantasy by ep3
>naked girl in mc's house offers sex
>mc declines
Dropped it at that point.

It's the one of the best anime this decade

The only ones who like SAO are self-insert waifufags.

I liked the abridged series that portrayed Kirito as a depressive asshole with severe PTSD.

That's about it.

>lanklet
Wish fulfillment anime that happens to be popular.

Mediocore harem drama. But some weebs didn't recognise that, even after intorducing 2 other girls. With that after begining of Alfheim ark it was obvious that it's just some harem/cringyopMC/tradegy, thus weebs got separated into 2 factions.
Cringy kids who thinks MC is very cool, and series itself is MASTERPIECE.
And angry "high taste" critics who got bamboozled, because they were to stuped to recognize that it's just some romance+harem+drama.
My favorite quotes:
"Asuna+Kirito is best anime couple of histroy"
"Damn these show is so shit, MC only won in the end cause of deus ex machina, eww"
Pros of all that BS - this show is perfect for detecting retarded weebs.

It's pretty bad.
