| I do not have much to say about that final, just like to point out that loved how it ended. |
| As predicted the ending was meh-bad i didn't get really attached to yuuki so her death was meh feels forced at least season 1 had that great start season 2 was at start bad later mediocre the animation was good once again the music was great even more stand out song then first season overall great sound track.Enjoyment was not so good i found myself alt-tabing quite a bit through these 24 eps. if there will be a season 3 i hope they will focus more on animating fight scenes then emotional scenes because they leave to much stuff out to really care. 6/10 probably never rewatching didn't leave any strong impressions |

ZeroMoon said: Is there anyone who wants an Accel World 2nd season instead of the 3rd season of SAO? I am Actually never ended up finishing Accel World even though I really need to. I started watching it when it was airing but just kinda fell out of it. Anyhow, seeing as Log Horizon has two seasons and so does SAO, I think it could be nice to bring out a season two of Accel World for the fans of season one. It would make some interesting competition between the three haha. |

| Though kirito was gonna get |
| Much beter than season 1 overall. 9/10 for season 2. Anicrad: 8/10 Fairy Dance : 6/10 Phantom bullet: 8.5/10 Caliber: 7.5/10 Mothers Rosario: 8/10 I hope there be a season 3. |
| GGO was pretty fun, and the Excalibur arc quest was pretty nice, second half of the show was there-there. Salute to them for another succesful SAO run. |
 |
The way she broke mid-talking... damn... |
 I should have realized that earlier. |
| Anyone know what Volume did the anime end on the LN? I'm planning to read it at one point before the year ends. Also how many volumes are currently out? |

| RIP Yuuki. At least,not all Sleeping Knights going to die. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| I would've liked to see more game related content but I guess it wasn't too bad. It was interesting how they implemented real life medical treatment with video games though. |
| Beautiful ending of a beautiful season 2. Cant wait for season 3 |

| There wasn't a cliffhanger after season 1 so why would you expect one after this season. They have content to animate and I'm sure it will come in due time because of the obvious reason...everyone apparently loves SAO. I personally found this show to be not very entertaining since the first arc. It isn't painful to watch but it's not very engaging either. The actual virtual world content is very bland the majority of the time. However, I suppose that is what this show is about. Not so much about action but about interaction between virtual and real world. I'm just not a big fan on the story that they are telling. To each their own. Mother's Rosario was a sentimental arc but nothing more. GGO really wasn't as good as the hype train made it into. The Caliber arc was very mediocre. This warrants about a 6/10. As someone else said previously I would much rather see another season of Accel World then the inevitable season 3 of SAO. |
| Well, Yuuki did die. Fuck. Nice episode overall, some feels here and there too, and Yuuki gets to leave both worlds after making her mark. 5/5 GGO 8/10 Caliber 6/10 MR 9/10 Who gives a fuck, I'm giving this 10/10 because reasons. |
 |
| Hmm it was okay, I have mixed feelings about this second season of SAO. Some parts were good, some parts were better left out. 7/10. |

| The las episode was great. It's sad that Yuuki died, but she will live in everyone's hearts. |
 |
| That was way too sad :( But alas it ended beautifully. I'm really gonna miss Yuuki and her friends....I'm happy that Jun and Siune are doing well though, RIP the rest TwT Overall this season has been a lot better than season 1 imo and I loved every bit of it GGO - 9/10 Calibur - 7/10 Mothers Rosario - 9/10 Overall 8.5/10 for me....I'm gonna miss you yet again SAO....Now we wait for S3 |

| If the second season only had GGO I would rate it 9/10 but the second half wasn't that good (at least for me) but I have to admit that the last episode was nice. Anyway for me it's a 6/10 because of the weaker half. I think I might not watch a possible third season :o |

I simply must agree with you... There should be more action, at least that's what would I want... That's exactly why I like it better when Kirito is in the main role. But this was a very nice episode :) |
| I have to confess I actually liked Yuuki's character and this last arc. Sure, it was still tainted with Kawahara Reki's absolutely awful writing, but it was not choke-full of it and it had some genuinely nice moments. I'm honestly surprised. Elevated the show to a 4/10. |

But this was a very nice episode :) The series isn't about action though. I thought GGO had the perfect mix of everything and even showed the true meaning of how VR can impact someone. Which the true focus of SAO is what VR can do to people, and the world. MR arc showcased how VR was important for other reasons besides video games. Caliber showed us how advanced AI is getting in the VR world. |
| 7/10 from me,if the whole series was like the first half 9/10. |

LastChapter said: Jarkzy said: If an anime watcher is going to start reading the SAO light novels, they should start from the very beginning instead of skipping to Alicization. The anime just skips way too much and omits an unbelievable amount of information.You have to start reading at 9, and its on volume 15 right now but it will take 4 or 5 volumes more to end the series so its still at least 2 years to reach it Yeah I guess I try to start at the beginning then. I don't really like reading something when I already know the key events. But I do my best :3 |

| (insert mandatory comment about manly tears here) Seriously though, I am not a fan of SAO as a whole but this will probably go down as one of the most touching moments I have ever seen in anime. |
| Missing the times of Rewrite, good times. |
| I guess foreshadowing that Rinko person will be the connection to a next season. Oh well, I still like the first season compared to this season overall. |

I would simply like it to have a bit more fighting (like GGO or first season), nothing else. After all I do like the anime :) |

| Ushina was so bad, that this show was better. |
 |
| Well that was fun, better than the first season at least. |
| Beautiful ending. The animation when Asuna and Yuuki were lying on the ground was amazing. To think about that, it was such a long journey from the first episode back to first season... EPIC journey. P.S Yuuki, you will never be forgotten. 10/10 from me, for sure. LastChapter said: macamiki said: Why so much hate 0o ? I think it's mostly because they rushed the ending of the arc just to insert an anime-original scene that played no major importance instead of teasing us for the next arc. At least that's the reason for most rational watchers. i found that picnic a very good closure to this season. They pretty much summarized arcs with Kirito's speech... |
| Welp that all folks, now on the special edition |
| yeo |
| Garbagio. |
| Kinda sad that they didn't hint out Alicization. Anyway good ending, and overall good second season. |
