sekaiwaKIREI said: Hrybami said: The ironic thing is that it's generally those who are new to anime who bash the most on SAO. really? when i was new to anime i loved sao. only when i rewatched it 2 years later did i realise it wasn't as good as i remembered. I'm talking about those who hate it, not those who like it. |

| -MMORPG where you can do whatever you want. -Waifus -Edgelord of a protagonist that is overpowered just because and can accomplish anything. -It was innovative when it came out -Pretty animation If the Stardust whatever (Dual Wielding) of Kirito was made today, internet would have gone crazy in almost the same way they did for the Hinokami (since they are the same kind of asspull with pretty animation) but times are different, and people who grew up with SAO also didn´t like the second arc and what came afterwards, so the other generations already had the "Sao is a bad anime" mentality. In reality, most isekai LN´s just copy what SAO popularized. |

| I always fantasized about virtual reality MMORPGs. Initially, I was interested in the anime to see how it executed the concept. |

| Cause its not a bad series but for some reason people love to hate on it. |

| SAO did blow everyone's mind in 2011, that's why. Like gaming is not a popular genre? I think so. Especially at that time. Even the animation is really super fantastic also. So everybody watched it right away, SAO is also one of the first Anime I ever watched. |
  “The first requirement of being a hero isn’t being right. It’s being strong. That’s why the hero always wins.” – Koyomi Araragi |
| Probably has to do with it being mainstream, since its usually how shows like these get so popular. |
GoldenMonster said: I mean I know the actual quality of a show doesn't necessarily translate to the popularity, but I mean come on it's so hated it can't be that wide-spread. The one good thing that SAO did right is a good marketing campaign. Even people who don't watch anime have heard of SAO and that says a lot when you could point to over a dozen other titles with an equivalent amount of public exposure that lack the same acknowledgement. |
