You understand how immature you sound getting upset that not everyone likes exactly what you like, right? You know people have these things called "opinions", correct? Someone may like a show you don't like, but it doesn't mean they're wrong! It means they're interested in different things then you.

Oh great...

This shit is back..


No one is pointing a gun at your head and forcing you to watch it. Or to post your opinion on it. You could have just wandered past but, hey, did it make you feel better?


So you're telling me I can't just simply post a reply here? [EDIT: Inappropriate comment deleted. - Key]

And, not watching it isn't going to make all the fanboys & fangirls stop posting everywhere about how great the series is.. (PS, it isn't great, Sword Art is bad.)
The series being back is an inconvenience to anyone with a worthwhile set of anime taste buds.


Exactly how does a show you won't watch inconvenience you at all? Seriously. Please post in detail how this affects you, who won't be watching it, in any way. Please.


I just told you why in the post you just quoted..

No, please don't assume things.

So its "the fanboys" fault you can't ignore them and find yourself responding to things that you really should just be ignoring cause they have no actual impact on you? Got it.

Question to anyone who has read this Gun Gale Online arc.. Does it involve any of the following: spoiler[Incest, waifu bait, damsel in distress, ridiculously overpowered main character, or completely unnecessary tentacle rape]?

A simple yes or no will suffice.


From memory: spoiler[No, most would say yes, depends on your definition of damsel in distress, if you're asking this the answer is probably yes for you, and no]


I mean it in more of an Asuna sense, as in spoiler[starting off with a really great strong female lead whose character is completely degraded by getting locked away by the bad guy as a prize for kirito to rescue.]

I legitimately enjoyed (most) of the first half of SAO, but boy that second half just burnt me out. I'm not sure if i can handle another spoiler[super kirito saves the damsel] kind of thing again.

That said, i am a bit curious about the new MMO world, so i'll probably check out at least a few episodes.

EDIT: If anything i'll at least check it out to hear Miyuki Sawashiro's voice.

Really? It is also possible to genuinely enjoy an absolutely awful show, I know plenty people who do. Plus "awful" is still an opinion, everyone has different tastes and expectations.

And nothing is worse than someone who states their opinion like fact, IMO.

I`ve watched over 13000 episode, specials, movies and ovas from 310 different anime. SAO S1 is one of the most terrible anime ever. No matter what you will hope, this anime won`t be different. Actually, if you try to do it on purpose, you won`t be able to do an anime this bad. From one episode to another, it was a big disappointment.

Oh look, someone who believes that his tastes in anime are superior to others..........

Time to get off of your condescending and pretentious high horse pal. Rolling Eyes

At the same time, assuming that someone is declaring something to be a fact simply because they didn't say "in my opinion" every time is also silly.

I don't know that will I watch this. Probably I will because I want to see is this any better than the first season. The first season was a prime example of a missused potential. But props at having Miyuki Sawashiro doing the main females voice.

So it looks like Kirito, despite having a wife already, is going to add yet another girl into his harem.

Sigh.

Knew that the second season would undoubtedly be made because the first season was so massively popular, but it is still sad to see.

I never tought you guys would go this far. To the peoples who are sending me private messages with dead wishes, please stop. I only said my opinion. If you guys can`t have a serious chat, that`s fine by me. ANN is a serious site, but some people here are not. My comments are my own opinions. If you don`t like it, we can discuss it. But stop being childish.

Wait, they're sending you abusive PMs? Make sure you let the mods know about that.

Also, FTR: I am not going to watch this and as such I have no opinion on the second season other than "I'm not going to watch it"

Did you get angry on a message board and start PM-ing people who hold differing opinions than your own? Cause ya know, stalking people is serious chat, dude.

I find it hard to believe you got 47 PMs because of your initial post.

EDIT: Oh, apparently he's the one PMing people, and it sounds like he's trolling. And then getting flamed. And then playing the victim.

You PMed 47 people cause they don't hold the same opinion of an anime as you. Seriously man, don't follow people into PMs when you have a difference of opinion. It is stalker-iffic and getting negative responses is only natural.

(For the record, he PMed me. I replied back with "Thank you for your response. Please kindly DIAF." I don't like being followed off a discussion thread and get protective.)
