Even know someone in real life who's a blind fan of SAO giving it a 10/10 without even providing one logical reason on why it's a "masterpiece" to him. They dont have to provide one.Better that way since they will get replies about how shitty taste they have.

| Well I wonder why haters even bother with this news. If they don't like it's not like someone forced them and have to watch it. This news shouldn't concern them a bit. As for me I'm just glad to have another season of SA0. I hope it will have another 25 ep. at least. |

| GGO= Call of Duty Online. If you haven't read the light novel, trust me, it isn't much to hope for next season. As an added note, why is it Sao part 2? They could at least made creative names before hand like: Sword Art Online, Sword Art Online: Link Start or something along those lines. It's really confusing explaining eps 1-14 (part 1) and 15-25 to someone. |

Why some rate 10/10 doesnt change the criticism solid or not.They have no reason to attack them.It wont change anything except their ego. |

I didn't even state one of those reasons on what you just said. I'm talking about, flawed character development, flawed story progression, big plotholes etc. If you "enjoy" something you mainly have a reason for enjoying it right? That means you have a reason. Yeah, attacking people isn't good on here, but having a debate with good facts is reasonable. |

There is no rule that says to write an essay. Of course posts like "!10/10!!!!" "BEST ANIME EVER" and the complete opposite "SHIT" "HAHAHAHAHA" are irritating. |

| That's cool, looking forward to it. Hopefully it doesn't turn crappy in the end like the first season. Although I mostly care if SnK will have a season 2. |

Lol, you already think that much ahead xD I STILL DON'T GET WHY THE SERIES IS NAMED "SWORD ART ONLINE" AFTER JUST ONE ARC OF THAT. Because every single story arc after that has connections to events or encounters in the first arc. Case in point in this case someone in gun gale online being capable of killing players the same way you do it in SAO - as in both ingame and in real life |

I didn't even state an essay, I stated "If you enjoyed an anime, you have at least one particular reason why you enjoyed it". Only one reason is good because saying something like: "Yo, I enjoyed SAO, wasn't that bad as people say" You WILL get attacked by at least someone on this site. Claiming at least a short reason why you enjoyed it is optional, but you're less likely to get attacked if you state at least one reason. There is so much hate on this anime especially it's fanbase stating you even liked it will get you attacked. That's what I'm trying to tell you. |

| I don't know if this is worth it to pick up SAO again, and I'm not exactly the biggest fan of this series but I'll at least give this 3 episodes to surprise/entertain me. |

| About the differences in the story to SAO, although this is a very slight spoiler. It probably will be included in the anime starting synopsis later though. This time Kirito wont be adventuring and trying to beat the game. Instead, he takes part to a battle royale. The whole story consists of those battles. For what reason, I wont tell. IMO it is bit better than SAO and ALO arcs. You can see the writer wrote it when he was older. |

IMO it is bit better than SAO and ALO arcs. You can see the writer wrote it when he was older. Actually quite a bit of the first arc(most of character stories, Asuna, etc) was written way latter too hence why SAO's first arc is better than Alfheim one. GGO obviously is more "mature" than both of them and writing gradually improves with each arc, for better or for worse. |

| Woohoo so excited. First one was awesome, except for the second arc with Leafa? (Is that her name, I forget)...wasn't a huge fan of the second part, but the first arc was totally kickass. Can't wait |

| I hope this actually lives up to the hype! I think the first season gets too much hate but that is just my opinion. It was good, but it certainly didn't live up to it's potential. |

| It is really fun reading these threads, but I can see where all the hate is coming from, some fans go a bit overboard with this, I mean it already has an 8.32 rating o_O I'll watch this just to see how much better the writing is in this Phantom Bullet Arc, but I'll keep my expectations low just so I won't end up disappointed. |

| If you don't like the first season, then don't watch the second one. It's that simple. No one is forcing you. |

| I'm only going to watch for the battles, GGO has some nice sequences. If nothing else, it will at least be a fun watch. Curious to see how those who haven't read the LN will react, since there is considerably less Asuna. |

Also, Index III... LOL, the series could've been so much better if it were cut properly, and were handled like Railgun S ep 1-16 |
