THIS REVIEW IS FOR ALL THE SAO HATERS CAUSE BOI... I WAS ONE OF YOU UNTIL NOW Just to point it out SAO was my first anime that i watch back when i was in the Last Year of Middleschool 5 years ago. SAO opened the gates to anime for me, however as i grow older i saw the flaws in it's plot and characters I see that SAO could have been better and so i started hating on the fact, thinking that someday it would be what i envisioned it to be. However that is just not the case, the fact of the matter is you can't changea writers story and he created SAO to ENTERTAIN the watchers because SAO is meant for all ages. Thats why when i watch SAO for the very first time and as my very first anime i was ENTERTAINED, i was hooked by the art and as you say an OP character that gets boobs and women is my kinda style for a middle-school gamer student.

It made me Entertained and made me enjoyed SAO, however as i grew older around mid High-school, I re-watch the anime reminiscing the first anime i watched and seeing the plot and character as dull as paper it made me Angry and Mad as to what it COULD HAVE BEEN making me a hater.

But as of now I manage to see both sides of the spectrum and I for once came to a good conclusion that SAO isn't as bad as i usually said. But SAO is an ENTERTAINING anime to watch without thinking. It's the anime where my middle-school self got hooked and enjoy because of it's easy to understand narrative thats dull and enjoyable sound and art. Its just a anime to watch and go, you dont need any discussions no forums no debates no nothing.

I had enough discussions of how SAO is bad and everyone shouldn't watch it VS SAO is the best anime and everyone should watch it. It's just an anime for you to just Chill and enjoying the ENTERTAINMENT that it provides.

For me i could remember 5 years ago that i really enjoyed the anime to the point that i become an otaku. It opened me to a culture that i haven't experienced before and so i shouldn't be hating on it yet grateful.

For reference even the creator Reki Kawahara, decided to remake the plot of SAO by creating Sword Art Online: Progressive. I read the manga and i enjoyed the plot better, however SAO as it is i could score it as the following:

Story : 3 (Storywise it's paper)
Art : 7 (Art is good at the time)
Sound : 8 (Sound is Great, loved the OP and battle soundtrack)
Character : 4 (Characters are a bit dull and generic)
Enjoyment : 7 (I enjoyed the anime for what it have given which is ENTERTAINMENT)
Overall : 6 ( It's an OK anime)

For all thing considered im not a SAO Hater nor a SAO lover, i just enjoy the anime for it's worth and i believe i didn't waste any of my time watching SAO if you open your mind.

If you want to watch SAO, watch it. Be my guest, i won't argue or discuss anything about the plot i'm now just enjoying the ENTERTAINMENT it provides. Everyone differs and overall it's not a bad show if you see it in an ENTERTAINMENT point of view like me. It's no longer what i consider a sh!t show but more of a enjoy it for what it delivers that what you want it to deliver.
