Review of Sword Art Online

This show is not nearly as bad as it has been made out to be. The story is half decent and the power-system is actually well explained in comparison to other isekai. That being said; the show possesses lackluster characters who leave much to be desired. The protagonist Kazuto is very one dimensional and does not really possess a likeable persona. Additionally, Kazuto falls into the typical OP protagonist trap that many other isekai fall victim to. Additionally, there are many moments in the first season that I felt like would have been better left out to pad out the runtime of episodes. You wouldprobably be better off watching any other Isekai in SAO's stead.
