The basic idea is great. There is however multiple problems with the plot. Most of them are not explained yet. But some are just outright ridiculous. For instance, they are not supposed to feel pain, but you see them scream in pain when they get it. It's been 2 years, they shouldn't be any phantom pain left.

The 2 main characters are Mary and Gary stu. Kirito eventualy a particular skill and the only justification about it is: he have the best reaction time of all the players. They specifically say that hes laid back for a front liner. He also took time to be ... part of guild way lower level than him. So why is he the strongest? Magic probably, but there is no magic is SAO. So probably something along the line of Deus Ex Machina!

Asuna though makes more sense, she IS on the front line all the time and she actualy didnt lose time.

Now the lovey dovey part. I liked it for the most part. The one part i thought was particulary stupid was when they think they can transport something from the game into the real world. I mean, seriously? Are you THAT naive?

The worst part? The end for sure, it was the most wanna be epic ever. Sure there is one big punch before the end, ill give it to them, it was kinda of impossible to see coming since the hint they gave was very unclear. But still, that part was nice. But then there is the im-a-villain-i-want-to-fight-the-hero-one-on-one. Somehow it made sense. I mean, the guy is a Dongeon Master after all, i guess theatrical fight are part of it. Except it is rushed (in all the way possible). But still that wasnt so bad. But then it hapened, the pokemon part. Something bad is hapening! What can we do? USE THE POWER OF LOVE TO IGNORE EVERY LAWS OF PHYSICS AND LOGIC OF COURSE!

Overall, its not that bad, it just doesnt deserve that good of a rating. The plot is badly exploited (like every other tsundere) the ending was OK and predictabel (refer to my last parentese).

But you know what? Even though i dont like it much, im still going to watch it. Because i still have hopes for this. The ending is somewhat surprising considering half of the episodes aren't out yet, i am really curious about this.
