The main character can understandably make or break an anime to some people. It's a perfectly reasonable to prefer a show to another based solely on that aspect.

Yes and Shirou is the way he is in this adaptation due to the adapters.

They don't know that. You can't blame the viewer for the adaptation's shortcomings.

THe sad thing is - most people will think that is how it is in FSN canon too.

I already am unable to prove anything about SAO to people, this will be even worse.

People still believe SAO is generic battle shounen and not psychological thriller where video games are only plot device?

I know that, I've read Alicization... and I'm right now on damned cliffhanger when

The wait for translation of next volume is killing me >.<

That might've been true for earlier volumes (Aincrad arc which wasn't expanded necessarily enough until addition of various sidestories), but the more author is releasing novels, the whole SAO gets way better as a whole.

Admittedly, TrueKireiPriest went waaaay too far, which is the reason why I took over. I mean, he even exploited a bug which shouldn't have been there... How do you kick a creator anyway? I've already sent out quite a few PMs, but once more, I apologize on behalf of anyone who's been inconvenienced by this.

As I said, for those of you who've left/been kicked out, you're welcome to return and reassume your previous positions in the old club, though of course, since this new club has already gained 20+ members, it's probably a little too late for that.

...still, the presence of what's now four clubs is pretty bothering, and confusing too~ Ugu~

Also notable, the amount of people hating on Fai was itself becoming more and more unjustifiable, so I'd like to apologize in that regard too. In a way, Fai, I'm glad you're still standing strong, bitterness or no bitterness. Same goes for the rest of you too - harassment and victimization is rather bothersome too, and doesn't help anything, especially when it's followed up by what may very well be a hostile takeover. This wasn't the way to go.

In any case, I'm sure things will smoothen out over time, both the salt side and the hype side~ I realize now that it's kinda like two sides of the same coin, so it's silly to try and erase one side over the other. There's been a lot of frustration floating around lately on both sides, both from those who dislike the adaption and from those who dislike those expressing their own dislike. Aaannnndddd, needless to say, the latter got a bit out of hand. I trust that you guys are understanding, so hopefully this won't generate further bias towards or against anyone~

Overall, let's hope that something like this doesn't happen again~ ^^

Well, if A1 ever chooses to adapt Alicization I'm sure that it'll be able to help convince people otherwise. Assuming of course that it's faithful to the source material.

Gotta say, I'm pretty new to the MAL community, and that all this club business is going over my head. Don't really get why every anime site has to have drama. People take da interwebz way too seriously.

On a another note, though, this lot does seem more mature than the other. Will I be branded as a heretic here if I say "Bazett>Caren"?

You people are mean .____. Well, it's okay to like Bazett over Caren, so long as you still like Caren to some extent.

And eh, yeah, it'd be nice if everyone could take this stuff less seriously~

Well, I watched ep last night, and might share some thoughts.

Caster flashback expansion was nice to see, but...
I got a different impression for Caster's original Master from the anime compared to the VN.

From VN, I had the impression of him being a very capable mage, but very afraid of Caster's capabilities, which made him use 2 Command Spells to seal completely Rule Breaker and to limit Caster's output, if I remember correctly.

In anime... he's a douche. Period. Even more arrogant than Kayneth and too proud of himself, and doesn't like to be ordered nor does he like when someone tells him he's wrong. Wanting to get rid of Caster like that just puts a Golden Seal of Douchebagginess on him.

Well, at least I hope it will to some extent show how big of a powerhouse Caster is... something anime failed to portray correctly in my opinion.

Shirou and Rin segments were nice, and so was Illya in the castle. However, that Shinji scene was... urgh... I still don't know what to make out of it. On one hand, it's obvious that Liz is only threatening Shinji, while on the other hand, while Shinji is pushing halberd away from him, Liz is shaking too much when you consider their difference in strength (Liz is Servant level with STR ranked B-).

Gil showing respect to Sella for her loyalty to Illya was also nice to see.
Preview was godlike.

TBH beating up a random woman beating idiot magus who has not shown any sort of real skill does not really do anything for caster's cred. Now if the master was actually capable paranoid overpowered magus prick and caster outsmarted and beat him...that would have helped.

Now? Nope.
