Review of Sword Art Online

There’s a reason why it’s famous……… About the STORY As it is after-all a role playing game story so the series is packed with action and adventures. It’s quite educational for people with zero knowledge with this kind of industry as there are tons of details about anything about Role-Playing-Game. As it is a survival story, the drama is quite in the heavy side but nevertheless, it is still accompanied with light elements such the nicely made romance part of it. About the CHARACTERS The two main characters are quite rare combination because it’s not very often you see both male and female protagonists who equally can kick buttsas it is usually the cliché “knight and shining armor plus damsel in distress” kind of set-up. It is refreshing to see both on fair and equal roles. Each characters’ role whether protagonists, antagonists, and even the second characters are well-executed.

About the ANIMATION
The animation is no doubt one of the top of today’s famous series. There are extremely cool fights and beautiful landscapes. The character designs are well-made although; they kind of look like characters from a slice of life series. The impression of all-so-cool action/adventure looks are lacking or in this case, different. Well, as the series progresses it doesn’t matter already.

About the ENJOYMENT
Virtual worlds and role playing games or rather being in a fictional world are probably not only dreamed by game otakus but almost all anime otakus as well who dream at least once to experience a fictional world where there are powers or weapons to use and villains to fight. This series is the epitome of that dream and I believe in all fairness this series is able to justify and features drama that comes with it. And although the characters look so cute for a shounen action series, their strong and admiring personalities still made them cool. Plus, you get two different adventures in one series.
