Keep in mind that I have not finished SAO at the time I wrote this review, so I will only judge what I have seen. I think Sword Art Online had an immense amount of potential to be one of the best animes around, and I even considered it to be my favorite anime at the time I watched it up until around episode 4. At this point, I thought that the show had started to lose what it could have had. I do not like what they did with Kirito, as they made him some "Lone Wolf" high level "badass" if you will. Alot
...
of the show was not an epic adventure to beat the game they were locked inside, but rather 14 episodes of Kirito messing around saving random people by standing there being OP as hell. I do not hate this show, but I do not like it very much either, I think it was misguided. One thing that I should particularly point out that kept me going for most of the show was the animation and the music. The animation was very appealing, and the action scenes were greatly enhanced by this. The music also fit very well with the anime, the opening being no exception. (The first opening, that is.) I do think that people should watch it, as I found it interesting at times, but I would not personally recommend it to a friend.
