That is just ridiculous.
It's popular, so it has to be good, right?


I donno, I find Gungnam Style ridiculous.

Whether it's good or not is one thing, you rating it 10 for the heck of it is a complete other issue.

And popularity =/= great.

By that logic, twilight is one of the greatest movie franchise of our time.

Expectations aside....

I guess these threads will be again people repeating themselves with(mostly 9 out of 10) random flaws only they can see or people complaining about GETTING explanations.

Poor SAO,no matter what , you can never win.

I don't think it'll be as heavily discussed as last year though, I mean, a lot of people who were disappointed in the past like myself, probably approach SAO this year expecting a lot less.

Well you'll be pleasantly surprised by a few things since the GGO arc is far and wide regarded as the better one of the series especially coming after the lackluster ALO.

You're prob right AirStyles, unless season 2 is better than season one or does something really extreme. Like Asuna getting pregnant

Who ever came up with this fact has a sad mind.
I would you waste your time just to criticize?! Don't you have someone else to watch ? Watch that.
I am here to watch SAO II FOR THE SAKE that I enjoyed SAO and ALO
ignored all the haters and I am here to watch to enjoy ,welli will listen to some criticism
But won't take it as an offense I mean ,this is something to enjoy .
Some may hate it but that is how it is.
The new season looks strong

Except that you are one of those normal people that dont bitch about..everything in an episode of SAO. I dont think this has anything to do with expectations.

Dont do this please.

Sinon alone is a big reason why I am sure that A-1 will do a shitty job again.Unless they do a 180 and actually do include some of her inner monologues or narration about her.

I just like to express this from the viewpoint of an anime only viewer.

When we hear Sword Art Online, the image that pops up in our head and got us excited is Aincrad.

Aincrad wasn't done well imo, and ALO further damage SAO for us.

Let's put it this way.


Imagine a great Aincrad vs a great GGO.

I can tell you, that a great Aincrad will be more attractive to the average viewer.


What I'm trying to say is, unless GGO is done really well, I think it's a tall order for SAO as a franchise to win back those who were let down by the first season.

Don't you know it's mandatory for SAO to explore all the different types of romance and fetishes?

We've had harem (?), loli, vanilla, tentacles, NTR and wincest so far. Can't wait to see what else we have besides traps in this season ;)


Oh god O.O you just made realize this show is more fucked up then i tought it was :/

What were you expecting out of Aincrad? To be like .Hack//Sign or Log Horizon? Sorry if it wasn't.

It's really unfair to put up and compare the whole series to the first arc, as much as iconic as it is. The whole theme of multiple virtual worlds is the point of it and you're going at it the wrong way imo.

Yeah, well I like Sinon too but that's not the ONLY reason to watch it. Thanks for the unwarranted pessimism.

Is it even overhyped if it's overhated as well? Kind of cancels out two and two together now.

I won't because participating in hate bandwagons is fucking retarded and immature. It's the most despicable form of ego-patting, regardless of how much you sugarcoat it.

I'm going to watch it because I actually want to watch it.

And why not? Criticizing something can also be a fun time, especially watching and pointing at cliches and just plain bad parts, as well as wondering why saliva-dripping teens love it so much. Could be good for your psychology studies.

Another reason it is good is because that way you can see who are the ones that love to play the smart kid that knows everything and can point every flaw even if it isnt there. Really good for psychology studies.

I'm pretty sure there are more people who dislike things for a reason than you might think. Go ahead and ask why they might dislike something, you might get a deeper look at their opinion.

The problem is that people who dislike things tend to go on a rant so much they start coming off as someone who had his mom or dad killed by said thing. Transparency and rationalization be damned. SAO is just the punching bag for this treatment.
