Why so hate

Boostcris007 said:
What's wrong with this show??? Really don't get. I have watched only one season but I really enjoyed it so much.
Good animations nice fights and nice songs
What's to hate here.
It was my 3rd anime and I had really liked it.
It's still better than overrated anime like code geass and Tokyo ghoul

Them :
Season 1 = bad writing
Season 2 = bad because guns, not swords
Season 3 = slow pacing
Season 4 = weak plot messed up story

But tbh,
SAO I was actual the best, fun and entertaining.
SAO II Phantom Bullet Arc is my all time favorite the main reason is GUNS. Battle Royale with Guns instead of swords was something different and totally loved it.
SAO Aliz. was decent good gives the same vibes as SAO I and SAO War of Underworld is PER-FECT solid season tbh part 1 is 9/10 and part 2 is 10/10 for me.
But yeah it's just my opinion and most of the people hate the anime for no reason.

SAO isn't a perfect anime, it has alot flaws but still it's super overhated, doesn't deserve the hate it gets.

SAO is my first anime and will remain in my top 3 4L.

i can see that you just started watching anime if you think tokyo goul is overrated 😂😂😂. bro tokyo ghoul's latest season have a 6/10 on mal,you call that overrated...
As for Code Geass,it is not overrated,if you didnt like it then fine,it still is considered by most to be the anime with the best ending out there and I consider that to be true,it is one of my favs.You either genuinly didnt like,which is just your opinion,or you didnt understand what the show was aiming for,which seems most realistic out of these two possibilities.If you identify with the latter,you should give it a rewatch,maybe you will understand it the second time.
As for SAO,yeah,I liked it,it was one of my favs when I started watching anime (3 years ago) too,but I gave it a 7/10 since it was good and fun,but it didnt amaze me with anything in order to give it a higher score.Also,the 2nd half of the first was pretty bad,but the first was really good. =)

I must agree with the first part. boostcris007 problably didn't get the anime itself, but thats no problem. However, about SAO, lets just say that you too have your opinion 😱

these SAO fanatics didnt see "Mother's basement" essay about every Little bad thing about this anime.
It isnt overhated
It isnt emotional
It Is a bad harem
Kirito doesnt have personality, same for the others

these kinda of thread was made too many times, so dont waste time of others and Simply read in the other discussion about the same anime

I don’t understand this reasoning though… He quite literally does. Idk how people classify personality anymore. This has always been such a bad excuse. S1 he was more angsty, but S1P2 and S2P1 is character development arcs after another one. He has more personality than most shounen/romance characters. I just never understood that argument unless you just watched like a few eps. To each their own.

SuntProstMare said:

because he Is a edgy, cool character, that doesnt evolve so much

S1 he Is overpowered and doesnt struggle doing nothing, with asuna he didnt grow mentally, since he got an arc with the sister and other female characters, so how does marriage matter?
S2 still overpowered, didnt grow at all
as I said, go Watch Mother's basement, he explain everthing in detail since i wont waste my time doing It.

DanyBoy_2006 said:

Agreeeeeeeeeeeeeed

official_brown said:

Again, just regurgitated info/opinions. The only reason he was OP was because of multiple reasons that make sense. You don’t need to be “underpowered” to have character development… S1P2 the person he loved was in a coma and basically being molested. Pretty big character development there. S2 in GGO he has PTSD (so did Asida) but they both work through it in their own ways as he comes to terms that he murdered people because he wanted to. He doesn’t need to come out depressed because of those things, so he resumes his regular personality. As do most characters. I’ve watched the video, he has bad opinions. I like to make my own opinions rather than just agreeing with an anime YouTuber.

SuntProstMare said:

ok, a question, After S1 why did he come back in VR? should he be traumatized?💀
the goverment asked a kid to catch a killer,why?

another thing, most of the hate of SAO Is his plot, It Is too stupid to think that was written in It. the author Is milking the serie so bad, and you still Say that It isnt so bad?

if I see " Watch this video" Is because i think the same thing as the "movie critical" that you talk about and if you dont agree with him, then why should i care? i said what I wanted and what i think Is the most correct answer to why this anime Is bad, im not here talking about what you wanna hear.

official_brown said:

1. Not always. He said in S1 that he felt more alive in a virtual world than in the real one. Obviously people have addictions if they went through trauma or not. Plus you see in S2, the second movie, and in S3, he is interested in making VR his career. He wants to replicate real touch through VR.

2. It was a separate government branch overseeing all things VR. Kirito was the top player in SAO and his knowledge and experience trumps that of most players. If you are trying to catch someone in a game, why not use a top player? Plus at that point 17/18 he was an adult, so it was fine and was under his consent. It’s not too far fetched.

3. People kind of mistake what SAO is all about since it’s called “SAO.” The crux of the show is the “world seed.” The seed that can create any type of VR game and even replicate your stats to any other game in existence. The point of the show is VR, not necessarily the game “Sword Art Online.” As is the overarching plot in the show. I view it as playing the DLC after a game. I enjoy the series. Also, why not milk something that makes a TON of money? I’m not saying the plot is perfect, but it’s better than most and SAO isn’t trying to be anything sophisticated. So it’s weird that people put on their “critic” glasses on SAO but barely any other anime.

That’s an easy question. What’s the point of MAL threads? Mainly to interact with the community. So defending an anime is open discussion for the community. I like to discuss anime, that’s why I’m on here. If someone makes bad arguments, I want to discuss it. If you’re receptive or not, doesn’t really matter. It’s legit half the point of MAL. I just encourage people to use their brains rather than just agreeing with others and make their own opinions that actually make sense.

ok, so to fully understand an anime i Need to Watch other other 69 seasons and 32 movies?(irony)
he was 17/18 and basically the goverment ask him to track down a killer, but you dont how It works, a videogame ask your email, and any other information, so the goverment can track down the killer himself asking Simply the game Dev or other ppl those information, and the should get It, so no, your point doesnt make fucking sense

Ahh here we go again. You are a newbie right? No wonder. No hate but understandable that you think so.

I mean come on this show is plagued with flaws.
Trash writing, no plot, poor characters, poor handling of sensitive topics, pretending to be a serious show when it's a just a fan service show for escapists.

The problem is how badly this show is written. No direction, self contradicting, mc is ass, tons of exposition with no sense. The show establishes 1 thing and proceeds to destroy it within the next 4 eps by doing something totally opposite.

I agree the fights, music and animation are good but that's all. If you want mi dress Action and tasteless drama top show but it's nothing more than that. Just a mid show.

The problem is how hype its fanbase give it, most of them being new fans like you who haven't consumed enough of the actually good and great stuff.

You will know when you see a well written story.

Check out 'Mother's Basement' videos on SAO and you will understand what I am trying to say. Great essayist he is.

It's an ok show. But as you explore more and more, you might see the problems with this train wreck of a show.
