If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

Did anyone else pull the >.> look when Kirito said like "that is not what i meant", very smooth. Got to learn to go with the mood Kirito. I think the anime heavily implies that they slept together, I mean that is the the clichéd after sex scene, even has the "did i wake you" line.

Just out of curiosity--based on what you've seen of SAO, roughly where would you put it?

Relative rank, absolute (score) rank, etc? Just wondering.

Well, this moment make it worth it I guess

Horizon's Maid Style Receive is not as cool as AHEAD, which functions more like a railgun, though with gravity.

Eh... strangely enough I'd rank it below Accel World based on anime only. Main reason is AW does novel justice while SAO does not. Definitely not in the top 20, probably not in the top 50.

Apparently just looking at my list, it would fit in with everything else I've given a 4/5, which I know I have far too many of.
Accel world would go in there as well.

It's my generic "I liked it" category for the most part.

Ah, I see. Just curious. I think it's very pretty, but otherwise a lot of the characters are sort of annoying :S

Depends on what your grading scale is. Problem is half people treat 3 as "barely passable" like school grade, while half people treat it as "above average", which is the system I somewhat prefer (precisely to avoid your problem of 4/5 cluster). I'd rate it as above average, but not very good.

I personally haven't really liked it since the start... it had a good concept but Kirito is completely devoid of anything interesting in his character and it's kinda stupid to have the main guy be so OP and oneshot all the bosses

and yeah I've read the first few volumes of the LN, I don't really see it getting much better tbh

I just use a 1-10 system lol. Used to treat it like school grades too, but it alleviates the cluster problem even more to have 5 represent an average score, and to go right/left for degrees above average. Works out pretty well.

And yeah, I thought I was the only one underwhelmed for a bit :X

SAO is pure MMO player wish-fulfillment fantasy. If you like MMORPGs, you'll probably enjoy SAO a whole lot more than if you don't.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

Yeah, 3 is more or less my average. Things would smooth out on my curve somewhat if I dropped quite a few half a point.

Even though SAO doesn't do the LN justice, I still rank it 8/10 - only thing I do not like is the pacing.

I like it so much as I used to play WoW a lot back when I was younger. :D

I played 10 years of MMO and couldn't really get into it... I guess the parts they represent MMO wrongly piss me off more than other parts help.

yo this is not a brag or anything; im pretty manly and i don't cry at movies/shows AT ALL, but this episode almost made me cry near the end because of how good it was.

for me I just laugh at almost every scene due to how predictable and stupid it is, but I shall still watch the next episode because I don't know of anything better to watch -_-

SAO at this point is like 4/10 or 5/10. At least it looks nice, and the past 2 episodes have had a few good fights.

And next episode, we are back to the side stories.

I am glad I am not the only one who think SAO is mediocre. I think the plot is decent enough to get into but the characters are pretty uninteresting. 7/10 so far.

SAO anime's problem is there practically is no plot, since they decided to shove 7 episodes of disjointed side stories down your throat for the first 8 episodes, before 2 episodes of the actual story, before going back to side stories again.

honestly the best thing about the sao adaptation is the fact that the romance isnt rushed as fuck. the first novel went from "kinda friends" to "married" within the span of like 2 days
