So I finished watching SAO, and I realized something, something I should have noticed ages ago, Kirito is FUCKING BADASS.
Indeed. Only faggots with shit taste hate on him.
>>136014005
He's okay, it really wasn't as bad as many say but it could have been better. Asuna a best.
I will admit it. I was GAR for kirito and thought SAO was fun until /a/ started hating it. Then I sliently started hating it because of /a/.
That and the fucking final fight with healthcliff what the fuck man.

Where the fuck does time go?
>>136014761
Time marches on despite everything.
Kill La Kill feels as old as gurren lagann to me now.
I remember when people used to complain about gurren lagann the way they do about SAO because it became too popular. If anything, SAO is actually standing the test of time as a hated show like attack on titan.
Although attack on titan only got hate after the anime aired and it became too popular.
>>136014005
I can beat the shit out of him IRL, and probably in any RPG too.
Guess I'm the ultimate badass and I didn't even realize...
This man may possibly be the one main character to rule above all the protagonists of any anime I've ever seen.

Isn't that the same for SAO?
Before the anime, I'm told there were plenty of quiet threads about the LN, but no one really hated on it until it became over-hyped.
>>136016564
Nigga got the shit beaten out of him by a bony loon shouting about mexican food. In One Punch.
>>136016814

>>136016814
>Shirou never beat Servants,only an servant
Really? because I'm pretty sure Gilgamesh, Berserker, Archer and Saber Alter were all servants.
>He did not succeed in fullfilling Kiritsugus dreams
"Succeeds were his loser dad failed" means he actually won the HGW and destroyed the HG without it killing anyone, saving most of humanity from Gil's ethnic cleansing.
>Saber
>not hot
Sure, if you like worms that is.

He and Inaho from Aldnoah Zero are literally the MC's /a/ has been demanding for years.
The only people who hate on him are insecure beta autists who feel insecure looking at his successes, so they take out their social and sexual frustrations on him.
>>136018725
>The only people who hate on him are insecure beta autists who feel insecure looking at his successes, so they take out their social and sexual frustrations on him.
Weak bait, too obvious. Work on your set up.
>OP is trolling/falseflagging
>redditors flock to post about how SAO is a masterpiece anyway
Thanks OP.
>>136014005
Yeah. He's also a disgusting quasi-autistic sociopath who hides out in the woods glopping his waifu instead of trying break out of the prison-game, thinks a guy touching his waifu's digital boobs is worse than another guy who killed about 4000 people, and seems to actually have some camaraderie with the guy who killed 4000 people.
He's worse than your average Stu, in terms of characterization and personality.
>>136014005
Totally, Kirito and Naruto is probably two of my most favourite characters.
>>136018855
I honestly can't tell if these are all actually newfags whose first anime was SAO, or if pretending SAO is good is the new hipster craze. But what's the point of so many people in here baiting each other? Is it in the hopes that some idiot will show up and start arguing that SAO is shit?
Shirou VS Kirito VS Touma. Who would win?
>>136014005
You forgot to turn your trip on, derp_commander.
>>136019257
Which Kirito?
Which Shirou?
To my understanding, there are several variations, with varying "powerlevels".

Is there a spell I can cast to make Kirito real? I LOVEEEEE him I actually saw him walking down the street dual swords and everything

>>136023607
How else are people supposed to discuss SAO?
Both the people who love it and the people who hate it are retards, so it's only to be expected.
Don't want to make a new SAO thread for this
So apparently the Director a week or two ago said that the movie was in the storyboard phase, and mentioned Avengers, Age of Ultron as a hint to the plot of the movie.
I haven't seen that movie, but what might he have meant?
>>136024770
Malevolent AI gets a physical body, clones himself, tries to take over the world. Heroes must put a stop to it alongside a benevolent AI.
...Yui's gonna end up getting superpowers, isn't she?
I came to this thread to see peoples reactions to the bait OP. Boy am I disappointed.

That's because GoB is shit against UBW. He'd lose otherwise.

It's a draw, and Saber is holding back.
Shirou's win is a series of convenience.
>>136025795
Going by your description of the plot; yeah, it's probably a Yui-based movie.
On the other hand, it might be about Alicization's Fluctlights?

No, they're still around. It's still not really acceptable yet.

>>136026014
There's no way they're going to bring Fluctlights in before having them brought up in season 3. It would necessitate Underworld, which would necessitate Kirito alone, which means no harem which is inconceivable.
I'm gonna guess that the basic Cardinal process in ALO gets corrupted and tries to destroy Arun/Yggdrassil/Alfheim/etc. in the form of massive quests that should have not been allowed to happen (i.e. Caliber Failure Side). Yui's probably gonna get superpowers. Why the fuck not?
Can you name a more badass character than Homura?
>Somehow survived 12 years of timeloops of fighting abominations and her untrusting "friends"

>She could destroy it if she wanted
If she were straight, she'd make that pansy Kirito into a rentboy sex slave.
>>136027456
kek, no. Kirito will save Madoka from Homura and HOmura will fall in love with Kirito so they can engage in threesome.
>>136026151
And it never will be.
Sorry SAOshitters; a consensus of anons still thinks all copies of your anime should be gathered up and shot into the sun. If you don't like that, kindly fuck off to MAL or wherever.
Of course, you're probably just three people at the most anyway.
>>136014005

I'd rather have ageneralthan not.
Despite my knowledge of how shitty this series is, I keep coming back for more.
Maybe I just keep coming because Jake knows more about SAO and it's workings than Reki himself.

>>136027857
t-thanks
It's funny because my first and lasting impression of the series upon reading it was "It's not very good." Yet I keep on coming back."Not good" does not mean "not fun", nor does it mean "not enjoyable".
>>136025903
Wait until your nephew grows up, he will have better taste then.
>68 replies to a bait thread
>even I replied here
This world deserves punishment, that's for sure.
Why SAO is objectively shit and you should hate it:
(the basics)
-overdone "stuck in a video game" setting
-gary stu MC with a "harem"
(why S1 is shit)
-Forced drama:
Introducing a character for 1-3 episodes and then letting them die. This is done multiple times so that it can end up in the
>"I have to endure all the pain on my own because everyone around me is getting hurt"-trope
which leads into the
>"No wait friendship is actually pretty important"-trope
which then leads into the next point
-Massive tonal shifts / sudden character development unfitting to the established characters and world
Our self-insert teenaged MC gets the girl everyone desires and marries her. (reminder that Kirito is 14 years old at this point) At this point the setting doesn't even matter anymore and even the characters don't care about the plot anymore. The story takes a break to show us that the MC is a perfect lover and father. ( still 14 years old) Of course the daughter is also a "deus ex machina / tragic character"-cliché.
At this point the Gary Stu powers of our MC reach a new high, he can suddenly hack the game. This shows how unimportant the "danger" of dying in the game is to him, which leads us to our next point
-Shit pacing
At this point the writer remembered that there still is an overarching "danger" in form of the plot but there is only one episode left!
The true villain of the anime at this point reveals himself and gets killed off in one episode. Our MC overrides the death system, shitting on the plot and established universe even more. Cue tragic backstory of the villain and of course TO BE CONTINUED.
-The anime is just a money-making machine
Letting the anime continue and reuse the same plot for 4 seasons even after it's shown that nothing is really dangerous for the main characters is by far the biggest sin and shows that it's just a big money-making scheme that shits on consumers and people who actually care about good anime
>>136025903
It could be worse. Kirito is pretty ok as a gary stu self insert and Asuna is cute.

Not for anime. What does this matter?
>Forced drama
Cute argument.
>Introducing a character for 1-3 episodes and then letting them die. This is done multiple times so that it can end up in the
You mean the one time it was done in episode 3?
>"No wait friendship is actually pretty important"-trope
Didn't happen at all. Are you sure we're talking about SAO?

16, but point taken.

Wat?
People call this hacking? Holy shit, you tech-illiterates. I mean, have you ever logged into any website ever? Do you suddenly call it hacking when you forget to log out, and someone starts using your account?
I find it hard to imagine that the only time you connect to the web is anonymously, and that you don't use any kind of social media, forums, or email. But I guess there are some ancient grandparent who would call this hacking.

He's good at everything, has no flaws, and any girl he talks to for 5 mins falls in love with him (including his fucking sister).
I get it. Kirito is everything you want to be. That doesn't change the fact that he's a terribly written gary-stu made to pander to teenagers.
