there are so many things i learned from sao. i learned that true love does exist, and it will appear to you when you least expect it. if there's a god/goddess, the only thing i want from him/her is a cute waifu like asuna

asuna has been an integral part of my life. i'm going through a pretty rough patch in my life rn, and the only thing that's keeping me going is her. whenever i think about her, it calms me down. maybe i'm just too autistic, since i don't go out much and use gaming/other media as an escape. but whenever i'm close to losing it all, even the slightest thought of her helps me stay grounded. ik she's not real, but she has done more for me than any real person ever has

Question yourself for a second anon, have you met all of the accomplishments of the Black Swordsman? a man who grinded till people genuinely believed he was cheating in life.

he’s not a harem king yaar xD. in both the lns and the anime, he’s always been loyal to asuna. but you’re right about how much he does for the people he cares about, i respect that and honestly feel like i should learn from it too. kirito deserved the peace and happiness he got. i kinda see a bit of myself in him before he met asuna

Based, you too should grind in something you find joy in anon. Just don't project the image of asuna when you find a cute Pajeeta. Realise we have our own stories, and you do yours. Your life will be a little different than Kirito's. Ganbatte.

explain me why it's not, because it is. it's also far better than all the modern anime slops. ln are even better doe, but i still enjoyed the anime more

also, before sao, the mainstream anime consumers in the west were mainly into sadslops (the equivalent of western young adult stuff). maybe the only outliers were comedies here and there, but usually action were expected to take a more sad or dramatic seinen tone. sao was different, it showed the success of kirito in hardship, the happiness of being a family man and responsibility for ones own life and destiny. media meant for young adults has to emphasize despair in a hopeless society and world and loneliness. sao was the opposite of what the audience at the time wanted so it's natural they hated it

dogshit writing with a cool premise that doesn't holds up to expectations and just doesn't age well
maybe its sequel is somewhat redeemable? suguha is extremely rapeable I guess but doesn't make it a good show the damage was already done in s01
there are more "slop" like shows that predates sao and are still exponentially more respectable compared to it

eh, you're sounding like an ironic weeb. these weren't even the reasons why it got hate. ecelebs did the major damage than anyone else, because they were pseudo-elitists at the time of early-mid 2010s. you really think new fag normies care about how deep a story is? no, they watch and go back to normal activities like fucking a woman while she watches anime. they aren't here to prove to any of weaboos that this or that anime is good or bad. there's some stuff sao does well and there's also plenty of genuine criticism you can point out about the anime. i think it's bad but there's far worse anime out there that people won't spend 15 years talking about. anyone who acts like sao is the worst thing ever made has probably seen less than 30 anime. people are unable to admit that something they like has flaws or something they dislike has actual merits.

yep, its definitely over hated and has aged terribly
while the characters were one dimensional and the plot was nonsensical, the premise was new and exciting and plot twists were decent.
it does turn into absolute revolting garbage after s1 though

nah, i actually loved season 2 more than season 1. alicization was where sao peaked, but the underworld arc felt a bit underwhelming with very few payoffs, especially since kirito wasn't present for most of it
