I'm just wondering how many people who have stated they disliked/hated SAO will watch SAO II?
Navizel
Me. For baiting purposes.
Tari
A sequel

I want to see how this comes out

A lot because it's a good show people just wanna hate because they can.
Navizel
It's actually a bad show (even though I'm still not past the first half) and here are some reasons why:
1. Gary Stu main character
2. Kirito leveled up from lvl 40 in the previous episode to lvl76 iirc in the next episode basically to make him overpowered (also looked rushed)
3. Easy to get girls obviously for harem purposes
4. Just what you would expect from a generic light novel
5. Forced romance and love triangle
6. Kirito's plot armor He should've been killed by Kuradeel in ep10/11 but damn plot armor. There's no way Asuna can arrive on the scene without Kirito being already dead. Why? Kuradeel's damage overtime. It's like his damage is slowed 10x and Asuna is sped-up 11x just to fucking save the shitty MC

Pretty sure I can still add more reasons after I finish it since the second half is considered horrible. I'm sure there's incest too which is another downside.

-just my two cents.

It's okay, I've played enough FPS's to know that Kirito will die someday
(hopefully ending the damn series or worse, adding a new character)

If your reasoning for watching it is so you can force your irritated opinions on other people, than I suggest you stop watching it ;)
Navizel
I'm just saying what factors made SAO a horrible anime in my opinion. By the looks of your post, it is clear that you're pertaining to my reason why I will watch SAO II while quoting my reason why SAO season 1 is bad which are obviously two different things.

Obviously, my reason for SAO II is a bluff. I'm watching it for guns ;)

This was actually my idea when I watching the second episode......I had to try and not sleep to watch the show fully....never again :o
Even though I dislike SAO completely, I still can't seem to agree with you on all points there.
I mean, the first two episodes were kind of the thing that WAS promising, compared to the rest of the anime which was obviously rushed as fuck. It's also those two episodes' fault that it got such bad ratings. They practically promised one thing and delivered another... if they had stated from the start that it was a harem anime without exaggerating the story to oblivion - it would've been a nice one to pass the time. Instead they just deceived the audience by turning SAO into something that it isn't.

The overly shitty story aside, the music, the battle scenes and the animations were definitely better than your average anime.

The only point on which I could agree with you is that after the quasi-magical fairy part of SAO, would I watch the next one? Fuck no.

Haha I agree with your whole first two episode concept completely, sword art online seemed very rushed for sure.

The SAO anime is completely shit. However, your view on the story may change once you actually read the light novel ([google:1337]sword art online light novel[/google:1337]). It is so much more detailed, and everything is actually explained. You can actually read the MC's thought tracks, unlike in the anime, where incredible stuff just... happens.

Furthermore, the anime is so rushed, and the second part (fairy stuff) is really, really, REALLY bad. But once again, the anime does not even explain half of the story that was included in the light novel. So if you are interested in the storyline, but disappointed in the content of the anime, I would really recommend you to give the light novel a read!

Slight spoiler... SAO II will be incredibly similar to a popular book/movie that many of you may have read/watched...

The story that will be included in SAO 2 is not in the manga, the original content would be from Volume 5 onwards of the light novel :)

SPOILER
The setting of the story is INCREDIBLY similar (i'm trying to not use the word "copy" here being the sao fanboy I am...) to Hunger Games....

Still on the first half of SAO and this is already my reaction towards the show.
Ryukaii
I really enjoyed SAO up to the bit where the second arc came in. The third arc COULD be interesting, but we have to wait and see if they ruin it like arc 2. I only wish they made the first arc longer, as they skimmed over a lot from the novels. Still looking forward to it in though in my opinion.

If they manage to make one, at least make better character development

The coming story arc (arcs if they decide to animate volume 7 or even 8 of the light novel..) is/are all nice imho! Please don't hate the story just because the director of the anime was really really fu----- terrible...

Navizel
So..... Are we expecting Kirito not wearing his plot armor?
Kuki
Yeah, I guess it might be a down point for the new series, but i'll definitely still check it out as I loved the first series.

SAO was okay/good but ALO killed it for me. They completly fucked that up. Im not sure if ill watch the second season, maybe out of boredom sometime.

SAO: oh shit what an epic anime!!
ALO: WTF? nothing interesting from here
GGO: ....................
Nyquill
I wonder if they'll do rosario with S2.

Anyway, i'm gonna ignore all of GGO, just like I ignored all of ALO. I'll be back for alice.
Tekklorn
Fingers crossed they don't fuck it up, the first half of the the first season was really good, just a shame they had to include ALO

Yeah, they really shouldn't have included ALO. It was just plain right boring. I'm still excited for SAO II though.
Also I've read somewhere that Asuna might get a supporting role and won't be included as much as in the previous arc's :-(

Edit: I don't know if it's really a spoiler or not, but I've included a spoiler box anyway. It's about Asuna.
gretay
if asuna get a supporting role it's not Sword Art Online / Alfheim Online / Gun Gale Online more , it's Bad art offline
Pawsu
i'm excited for it, the concept looks cool but from what the large hate mob is saying. it looks like it'll have a lot of flaws.
but whatever, i like the style of it and it looks like it'll be cool!
Miyu
Been waiting for so long yet im kinda..holding my feet behind when it comes to GGO =/ since kirito is turning out to be a female character and the lovey dovey interactions will decrease even more,i really enjoy seeing kirito and asuna together specially gaming wise but meh well im dying to see it lol

Yeah I had the exact same response. I guess they want to make Sinon a populair character and by doing that they are trying to lay off Asuna. She's still gonna appear though, I'd dare to bet on that. SAO is just not SAO without Asuna.
