Review of Sword Art Online
There may have actually been series i would consider worse than the first season of sword art online, Aho Girl as an example. Still Aho Girl got a higher rating from me because of one simple reason: Aho Girl never managed to disgust me in a way this series did near the end of this season. Actual rape depictions in a series that up to this point was mostly made with a younger audience in mind. Everything it does right in the slightest is in my opinion overshadowed by the massive amount of flaws. Nice Art and an OK soundtrack can't make up for that either... There aren't anyengaging characters apart from Asuna during actual SAO, which also got thrown overboard with the second arc, where she spends the entire time locked away and...... ugh... getting sexually assaulted by some ass-pull villain.
Totally confused on how this series ever got a rating above 7.5 and over 1.3 million members on this website.
