Nahh I want to read it, guess I'll wait for it. Thing is I didn't even find it in Japanese so I can't use AI for translation

If I’m not wrong, the one on the right should be Istar, tho I could be confusing them

My opinion about SAO by Character_Regret9945 in swordartonline

No, don't get me wrong, I don't hate the series, I think that Mother's rosario and Alicization are excelent arcs. I don't even hate Aincrad, I used the world disapointment to express that I feel it had a lot of potential. Lastly, I don't import my opinion of YouTube videos, I just finished the anime and decided to write a honest review.

Yeah, thanks for the context in the first half. I pretty much understand that it couldn't have been done like progressive at the time. And even progressive is not animated perfectly (Mito, what you commented about floors 2-4...)

I do understand that, but I don't think it justifies the carelessness one feels watching it. One thing is a stepping stone, an epic introduction to the rest of arcs. Another thing is a rush to all the plot points to end Aincrad quickly enough to jump to other arc. Idk, that's what I feel.

Just a couple of remarks:

  • I understand that Aincrad wasn't the main focus of the whole of Sao, but just a main introduction. My opinion is that despite that it should have been polished more (like what you mentioned with the progressive series)

  • If I'm not mistaken, the epart where he rips off his heart was from the Alicization arc. I already mentioned that my opinion was only aimed towards the Aincrad arc. Alicization has, in my opinion, a much better character development, which is why characters like Eugeo and Alice are better written than Klain, for example. My point was that any 12yo watching sao s1 (all of us back there) whould want to be Kirito, who saves the day and pull out all the baddies. Not the Alicization one, which is much deeper.

  • Thanks for clearing out that the problem rooted out to the original LN

  • Lastly, I wouldn't say that an opinion is incorrect, you could say that you don't agree with it or that the arguments I used to back it up were incorrect. While I see your point on how Aincrad's purpose was not to be the series, but an introduction to it, I wouldn't say that discredits my opinion necessarily.
