ITT: We share the most ridiculous theories!
SAO was the best anime, a deconstruction of the harem genre, and posited philosophical questions like the nature of reality.

Indeed. A pig rolls in mud, covering itself with all the mud, but turns out in the end it is for a good purpose; it reveals the usefulness of the mud for the well-being of the pig.
Just like this simile of pig in the mud, although SAO dwells in all the sins of the harem genre, it reveals the goodness in the genre and it reveals the significance of the tropes to the well-being of the stories in the harem genre.
I wish I can be as succinct as you, anon. That is a great simile.

When. Literally when does it do this.

SAO's only merit was spawning an endless torrent of clones, some of which arefun
Unless it is confirmed by the author himself, it is still a theory.

I unironically appreciate video game anime. Writers should really expand beyond fantasy MMOs though. SAO II got it right with GGO until it fucked up the pacing.
