Review of Sword Art Online

I watched this a year ago, and it was one of the first shows I had seen in a while. I thought the first half was interesting, and I honestly think it would have been perfect if the two had died and the show ended with the virtual world collapsing...but my god did the show nosedive afterwards. The elf arc not only had dumb looking character designs, but a whole weird "rape" thing going on... heathcliff was pretty cool though.
