Review of Sword Art Online

This anime has been given a really low overall rating but i loved the anime personally; Story: I really enjoyed the story line about people getting trapped into a futuristic game online, although at the beginning i was a bit confused because it didn't make any sense for them to be trapped, anyways i liked how the story continues because it is fast pasted and at times sad and then happy. i also thought that the second part should really have been a separate season as they didn't really connect at all. but overall the story line was great (Y). Art: The art was modern and slick, especially thefight scenes; they were amazing!! I also like the design of the clothes within the game, i really liked Kirito's coat.

sound:

i enjoyed the openings and endings to the anime, i think they worked really well with the genre.
i also liked the music that they used in certain times in the anime because it really set the atmosphere and at times made me want to cry!!

characters:

i liked the characters, they were well explained and there characteristics suited the characters (such as kirito's was kind and warm hearted whereas Asuna's character was stern and a bit grumpy at the start of the anime).

i really enjoyed this anime because of the characters, plot and drama!
even though this is a "shouen" it is very feminine and romantic . (Kirito cries a lot, and i mean A LOT).
overall i give it an 8 because i enjoyed the anime and the reason i didn't give it a 10 is because at times the anime left me confused and wondered why they added certain scenes to the anime,

hope this helps!!.
