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

For currently airing anime, please see Anichart.net

Some of us are sour because shit adaptation of an already unimpressive and dragged out work. Trash adaptations? Fine, but at least be like Oreimo and milk it well (even if that too stabbed me in the back).

Suffering.

Also SAO was boring. Even if I were to buy the idea that it was only trying to be what it was and nothing more it was still a pretty boring anime.

universal Hayamin balance. Does it work with manga too when Yamada threw an interview at us?

SAO is pretty good for what it is. Think people in this thread get a little sour because it's not what they like in terms of anime, and it's more popular than what they do like. It's a pretty enjoyable show though, like Free or any of the other popular light entertainment anime, and it's never trying to be anything else.

No, its not good for "what it is". "What it is" is an adaption of a LN series, which manages to be much worse than what it is adapting (which is actually an impressive feat, in a morbid kind of way). Not mention saying "its good for what it is" is such a terrible way to describe something or try to defend sometime, like you can't even defend it based on its own merits. Plus, I couldn't really care less about how popular it is, considering that one of my favorite animes is Gundam SEED.

No MichaelEU. IRC pretty much talks about every game and then never plays shit... unless it involves copious farming and/or RNG.

SAO was one of those animes showing promise in their summary. After the first episode and slap in the face, you actually don't even want to see the second. Then you decide to give it a second chance and watch the second episode, only to be slapped in the face again.

SAO had a chance to be really good. Then they threw away their only interesting plot device: Where you die irl if you die in-game.

Then they were like, "NO NO, ITS OKAY, DAIJOBUU-DESU~". Well give you some incest plot, and loli plot, and lewd Haruka Tomatsu. See this show is still pretty good. *thumbs up*

The first volume could have made for a decent anime arc. But for whatever reason, the anime decided it was a good idea to rape the show's pacing by shoving in a bunch of side stories, most of which just existed for fake-harem-building, or for things that would surface in later volumes not covered by the anime (but they still removed any relation to those later volumes anyway). The first volume is best as a side story anyway, with how obnoxiously Kirito and Asuna's relationship was developed, so it would have been better as a movie or short OVA imo.
