For some reason, I don´t think this will happen, as much as I wanted it to. I mean, Asuna is a minor character in this arc, or so I´ve heard. Unless they pair Kirito with other girls, I really don´t see any good romance coming out of this season :/

If there's more romance, I will watch it. The action is okay too, but for gaming related reasons, I find the MMO/RPG qualities of SAO to be an eyesore. More romance please!

That'd ruin it. They make a good couple. Hum, I might check it out then still. Not having any new ♥ really drops the appeal for me though.

No, there won't be any romance this season, Sinon (Shino) develops feelings for Kirito near the end of this Arc, however other then that, there's no romance, however there are also the Mothers Rosario and Caliber arcs which are being rumored to appear in this season which will have romance between Asuna and Kirito/Kazuto
for those who want much more information, I recommend reading the light novels, and going to the Sword Art Online wikia

Not being funny at all, only simply pointing out how hypocritical you seem to be.
If you get easily angered, offended, or pass someone off as simply mocking because someone repeated what you said to prove a point, I'm afraid the internet is not the place for you. Truthfully, socializing may not be for you.
All you seem to be doing, is using SAO hate, to "hate" SAO haters.
You do well in school, Congratulations. I hope you earn your diploma/degree/whatever. Book smarts, however, doesn't equate to social skills though.
EDIT: I know you'll probably read this again, but if you're going to post comments degrading others, you might want to be prepared to back it up and be able to respond to criticism. All the same, you may delete your comments, but they are still quoted within my responses.
Good luck on your education though. If you're in college, I recommend a public speaking course as an elective, it'll improve your skillset, trust me.

You're trying to be funny, which you're not, stop.
Answering your question, I dislike people who seem erudite and scholarly but just use it to mock others, it seriously makes me question human nature here, and this is coming from someone who does well in school and knows a lot of the stuff they're using to mock SAO fans. SAO hate is probably the prime example of this.
Read my previous post regarding the issue, it's one thing to utilize learned ideals, but to use it to mock people shouldn't be how it's done if you're going by the said philosophies of some of them. I just don't find it classy, I find it shallow.

I think he actually made the big mistake to take MAL posts seriously. Or Internet seriously.
People mock other show's and fan's taste all the time, why SAO would be any different? It is fun to Hate, we all get that.

It would appear there are some that eat, sleep, and dream of SAO haters. Tell me, do you decorate your room with SAO haters? Are you a SAO hater otaku?
I'm intrigued.

This is actually good news in my opinion, for how bad SAO was, the forum threads made up for it 110%.
Jan 26, 2014 11:19 AM by Venom900
Hmmm...just hope it's get more better.

Guns might make SAO better, but you never know. I liked SAO because it was medieval styled so who knows.

So wait, you basically agreed with Shangetsu that completely follows the opposite of your ideas?
On those ideas themselves?
Are you fucking kidding me?
