Will anything suffer as much hype backlash as SAO? It may have taken 4 years but the reasonably intelligent and degrees of normalfags watching e-celeb reviews effectively turned the show into the 10s equivalent of Mars of Destruction.
How does that even happen?
SAO isn't any worse than Marvel capeshit. I don't get why normalfags would hate one and love the other.
If we are honest Mars of Destruction is better than SAO since the suffering only lasts for one episode as opposed to 50.
>overloved when it came out
>overhated now
SAO is the Naruto of our generation.
We hated it since it started.
>>144070692
SAO is very good for what it tries to be, though.
It's easily the pinnacle of the invincible protagonist fantasy battle harem genre.
SAO was ok, kirito and asuna had nice relationship simulator thing going on without tsundere bullshit or beta faggotry.
GGO was a stinking pile of shit.
>>144070692
At least with Mars of destruction we never have to see it again. Weebs and faggots still love SAO, and it's all over the fucking place
>>144071566
SAO was pretty ok, innofensive and even cute even if the final battle was highly stupid. But the stakes were there and the relationship between the main protagonists was actually its high point.
Then ALO happened. It didn't need to. It was literally written after almost a decade later.
>>144070692
SAO I hated back when it was still popular so what does that mean?
>>144072495
This. If they'd ended it at Ep. 12 most /a/nons would've been like, "Meh." ALO is where most get the "kill it with fire" reaction.
>>144072495
Sugu is pretty cute though
I thought GGO and it's snail pacing was more boring to watch than ALO
>>144070692
It's because it followed the new age story plot in anime, form a solid romantic relationship, then introduce a harem with 1st wife ok with MC's concubines, or at least not acting like a jealous bitch about it.
It also abandoned the core death survival concepts LN fags had for it, as well as game concepts.
We knew the original story was rushed, in the anime development we wanted it fleshed out, at least take some stories from WN2 that was out at the time.
Instead they did the market machine on it and boy did it sell well, it got pigeon holed for pre-teens, and if you look at it from that angle this series is perfect material for the age group.

>overhated now
Wait, what happened?
They can't possibly ruin Alicization too, right guys?
R-r-right?

Everything that needs to be said about SAO
>people actually considered SAO to have one of the strongest first episodes back when its season started
>fell apart in record time
>>144077956
forgot the image
SAO is the best wish fulfillment anime out there.
>>144078152
lies...
>>144076662
The people who liked it accepted their enjoyment and moved on.
The people who hated it continue to relive it for the rest of their lives.
>>144078152
give me another example?
>>144078465
The chad who's still banging that girl you had a crush on.
>>144078495
>what the fuck are you talking about anon?
>>144078588
Wish fulfillment, what else?
>>144078634
>why would I want someone to cuck me anon?
>>144078152
That may be the case, but kirito still has to play second fiddle to onii-sama
>>144078700
Kirito's harem is more loyal. They don't move onto other guys.
>>144078700
I liked the premise to this show, but this guy pissed me off so much that I dropped it.
>>144079291
it's only watchable as a comedy.
>>144079128
yeah, it's amazing how the winner is already determined and they still stick around anyway as if nothing happened.
>>144079407
they're actually friends.
they like kirito because he is a fun and likable person, not because they think they might get to fuck him.
>>144079407
I don't think Asuna mind polygamy. She probably will encourage Kirito.
>>144070899
The first 3-4 arcs in naruto were actually good though. It just steadily kept getting worse after the chuunin exam.
Asuna a cute.
>>144077759
Depends. The adaptation of Mother's Rosario was 10/10, while the rest of the adaptation was somewhere between mediocre and balls. A-1 can do well when it tries.
Volume 17 is actually pretty hype so far.
>>144070692
I don't think you've actually seen Mars of Destruction if you're comparing fucking SAO to it.
>>144079815
If Kirito takes a secondary role and they focus more on Eugo at first and Alice afterwords I think it has the potential to be very good.
To be honest, I think Mother's Rosario was as good as it was because Kirito wasn't the focus of it.
>>144070692
Most /a/nons like SAO. It's just the hater minority is extremely loud, has a lot of time on its hands, and works in shifts.
>>144070692
normalfags are going to keep being normalfags.They are easily dazzled so they hype up shit like Kabaneri,iron blooded orphans or SAO and then bitch because it fails or the subject matter is no longer aligned with their sensibilities
>>144072495
ALO was fine in the novel. The anime frankly butchered it. GGO was a quick diversion in the novel and Sinon was a pretty cool guy. None of the actual good stuff (Alicization) has been animated.
>>144079815
>Mother's Rosario
but the story itself was too melodramatic
>>144074279
it means you're a normal person
>>144079291
Just pretend that it's actually a parody in disguise, the show takes itself wayyy too seriously
>>144079815
post mega links to 11+ please. can't be assed o search for good version of them and last read volume 2 of alicization.
>>144078700
true
>>144079128
onii-sama is beyond such mortal concerns.If he wanted any of them you know he could keep them effortlessly
>>144083535
>>144079291
or embraced fully.its more fulfilling than overlord
SAO is only as good as your ability to ignore things.
just ignore all the death game drama, ignore all the muh asuna drama, ignore the secret special agent kirito death game (again) drama, ignore the aids drama, ignore the drama with asuna's mother.
>>144083643
so basically watch it for sol
>>144083696
yea
it's good fantasy video game sol
excalibur arc is the best thing to ever come out of SAO
>>144070692
Re:Zero is already suffering it, and rightfully so for being a garbage show
>>144079544
Naruto was never good. It's just the same self insert shit for 14 year old retards and it just happened to get edgier as time progressed. It was never good.
>>144083783
Elaborate. I haven't seen it.
>>144083729
>>144083729
>excalibur arc is the best thing to ever come out of SAO
>not mother's rosario
this is why we never have nice things on /a/
>>144084010
Mothers Rosario requires you to actively ignore things, Excalibur is fine as it is.
>>144083696
Yeah.
Considering the fact that Kirito actually wasnt a faggot who blushes everytime he thinks of holding hands and actually stayed with Asuna after they got out of the game it is already better than 95% SoL/Drama/Romance anime
>>144083783
in reverse. everyone I know has been bashing it from day 1 but after the gore fest of the last ep and all the shades of akagami kill, they all love it
>>144075651
This.
The ALO arc was complete trash. I still dont understand why his cunt sister sudently decided that after 2 years in coma she wants to suck her brothers dick and ruin the whole shitshow even more.
>>144085737
I thought the main issue was the overly cartoony rapey villain and its only redeeming power is being slightly better structured goal wise.
