So, when i started watching anime, i hear from a friend to watch SAO, let's say i only watch 8 episodes at that time, and stopped.

Time goes, time comes, and another friend was watching SAO, then i thought why not watch as well... Let's say that i didn't enjoy it that much, maybe its because i had more anime that i can compare too, or maybe i didn't really enjoy at all.

Let's talk about the Arc's first, the first arc i consider the best as most of the viewers, and i find a nice story between the characters, Asuna and Kirito fall in love in ... the middle, and the part that i liked the most was the love between them in the 22 floor, but still, the story wasn't that much as people said it was, to me the first arc should have ended the anime, like they won the game, meet IRL and live together, but they kinda overstand the anime, it did not need the extra drama from rich companies, and other game and so on, but again the second arc is consumable i think, i'm a very patient so i can consume the second arc, some people can't other can its ok, still the anime didn't need a second, third and fourth season, this should have ended in the 14, with a new 15 episode, but if the first season is enough to close the anime, why more?

Story (3)- Has i said the story is poor, they never really showed the real MMORPG, they only use the base of it, still, its an anime and i must understand it should focus in the drama right? wrong, because SAO drama is normal, too overstep the MMORPG poor usage it should have a good drama, but it doesn't, its a normal drama, wow be stuck in a world that if you die, you die in IRL, yah that drama was good at a certain point, then the game ends, and IT'S OVER, NO MORE EPISODES, but as i said SAO puts more 11 episodes and forces the bar, that's why the story is poor developed.

Art (8)- One of the thinks that make me consume this anime in lest then a day it was is art, its was really good, colorful and outstanding compared to some animes.

Sound (8)- Most animes don't have this quality, in SAO you could ear almost everything, from steps, swords, birds, most of the sounds were really accurate, and the music was calm.

Characters (4)-

Kirito - In the anime said he was very smart, with 10 years old he discovered a big secret, and he was like a little genius, but to hack the system and all of that with 16 years old is what can i say IMPOSSIBLE, but ok its MC power and anime, what can i expect, but like he brakes the rules of SAO in episode 14, that pissed me off, for real, still i enjoy see this character, because he was a open boy he could talk to everyone and be himself.

Asuna - Well, Asuna was important in the first arc, then she couldn't do a thing, so yah, i can't actually considere her a tsudere, cuz she was really open to Kirito, in the beginning maybe, then they have grown as persons with there relationship and became adults i may say, so not much to say about her.

Yui - and AI with administration power, well at a certain point, i can only judge her in the times she appears in the second arc, because in the first it was not that much, so in the second arc she is kinda of an hack, because she says how much and if players are around, that's like an X-ray, and she can also access the system for information, lets say if this was a real MMORPG, Kirito was banned from the servers.

Other characters - the supporting characters were not so annoying, they completed part of the story (helped fighting bosses most of the time), not that much to say.

Kirito sister - not necessary, has i said the second arc wasn't necessary, and so Kirito sister.

Enjoyment (5)- I think the enjoyment is mediocre, yes i watch it in maybe half a day like 8 hours something like that, but still i was expecting more from the anime, its so well talked and so mainstream, that my mind was expecting more from an anime that i consider normal i think, still it's an fast anime to watch.

Overall (5)- i can't understand the story or some characters but the Art, Sound and Enjoyment made me watch this anime until the end and i must say i fell good to watch and have finally an opinion about this.

Thanks for reading this was actually my first review, please don't hate, its just my opinion.
