People complain about not knowing stuff when reviewing this anime, but i say STOP. This anime is more in depth than they'd like to admit, even characters. Before watching the series, i'd recommend watching K seven stories, movies 1-5, not 6 as spoilers for the end. 1-5 will help you understand the characters a little more, but you can watch confidently without watching it.
People complain about a weak story, when the only difference is the story is personal to the characters than to the audience. What i am trying to say is, it's not about the world, or some OP villain. The plot is centred
...
simply around the characters, their feelings, emotions. The plot centres them, and they did it very well. Then comes characters, most people say they are shallow and under developed. However, lets take Mikoto, red king. He is quiet and seems cold heated. People will look at him and say "he's shallow". i disagree completely. That man is more human than many characters in anime. Take a deep look in his personality, when you're close to him he seems a little cold, yet from an outside view he looks caring. He deeply cares about his clansmen, showing compassion to them. Furthermore the man is showing an insane, yet calm attitude, balanced with a layed back persona. I may not have explained it well, but take a look at him and you'll see how human he really is. You can clearly see the connection he has with the people around him, and the comfort he has given to the people of HOMRA.
Even fight scenes, they look fluid and are engaging. I can't remember any fights where they copied and pasted the same animation to save budget, the movements, attacks are very well animated. The art style is exceptionally well done.
The sword of damocles isn't very well explained in the anime, but take one look at how it is represented and what's said and you'll understand immediately. It doesn't take much effort, because all you need to know is that if it starts to crack, and crumble the king is going to die soon. That is all, it is very relevant to the entire story of K and simple enough to understand. The very definition of Damocles means that at any given moment, something bad could happen to them. The name gives away what it represents, and the blades condition represents how close they are to it.
Their powers are simple enough to understand if you watch the anime. Just pay attention and you'll understand where it came from.
My final thoughts, ignore the haters that payed no attention to it, i'd recommend watching K seven stories, K, K missing kings and K return of kings and you'll have a very good time

An anime full of controversy, that is SAO, yet i enjoyed every second of it. Some parts were slow, and sure some aspect of the game was underdeveloped.
A lot of people hate SAO because of it's too popular, or because of they don't like the fact they added romance into the story, or they get mad because of you don't see Kirito grind in-game. Just because it's popular, don't hate until you watch it free of that mind set. It's ok to start watching as a sceptic, but don't let it ruin your enjoyment. I feel the romance fits with the story, due to
...
the circumstances that the scene is set. People forget Kirito and Asuna get together in the first one in a LIFE OR DEATH GAME. They both understood they could die at any given moment, and because of that they fell in love. There's nothing wrong with that, if anything it's more realistic. Now the grinding, let's face it, if everyone was watching Kirito grind and grind doing fetch quests or something that doesn't advance the plot, everyone would have an issue with that XD. Just ignore the haters, give SAO a chance and enjoy your time watching it. For me i enjoyed the story, there wasn't much filler. The only thing it's missing is character development some of the main cast. The Alfheim arc was slow at start, but when it picks up pace, the fighting is good.
When watching any of the SAO people expect as they would irl, whether that role playing, full of it, narcissist, cruel or even creeping on others. Give SAO a chance, ignore the controversy and enjoy the anime

Some parts were slow, and sure some characters were a little annoying, but isn't that the same with all anime? Nothing is perfect, and neither is SAO, but you should give it the chance it deserves.

The thing is, most issues were unreasonable and hated for no reason, then carried over to the sequel XD it's like the toxic haters won't go away
