Hey, if you think banging your brother/sister is sweet and romantic, go right ahead and carry that torch.... I'll be over here...off to the side...

It has the potential to be sweet and romantic, no different from any other couple.
That's besides the point anyways. I see people acting like the mere inclusion of incestuous feelings automatically make the narrative bad rather than look at how it was handled. Suguha knows she shouldn't have those feelings which is why she actively tries to suppress and get over them. It's not pro-incest in any way.

I have to agree with you. Ever since season one Suguha has acknowledged she shouldn't have those feelings. She asked herself several time why does she feel that way. Why can't she stop feeling that way. So I agree the show is not pro-incest in any way. And has been pointed out they're not actual siblings anyways. But that's besides the point. Back to lurking for me.

She was more or less T&A fodder for the otaku shut-ins that don't mind the incest angle. Glad to see the series has at least somewhat grown out of that.

My feelings exactly.

Look at the cover for the Extra edition. I'm worried for one of the other girls if her top breaks and it goes flying one might loose an eye.

Left. Every time. No hesitation. Haters can get lost.

Don't need to tell me twice.
Though Sinon looks really cute in her swimsuit. It's a real shame that the Gun Gale Arc occurred after the Extra Edition. I would have quite liked to see all the girls interact with each other... For research and plot advancing purposes of course.

You seem to be implying that a lack of screentime somehow equates to a lower quality of character.
Also, there's still the Vita games and Girls' Op.

THERE'S A SAO III!?
I thought it was done? MR isn't the last arc? If so, that makes me really happy. So not ready to say bye to Kirito and Asuna.

He's just making an assumption. Considering it's popularity of course SAO is going to have more seasons in the future, however the author doesn't seem to intend to complete the next story arc any time soon (it's 7 novels and counting, most other arcs were 2) so I doubt we'd get an adaptation of it until it's done. He's also writing another novel series which covers Aincrad floor by floor, which I think might be a better thing to adapt since even if the season doesn't complete the main story, we know how it ends already.

Obviously there's no announcement for SAO III but there almost no way there won't be one.
The next arc is Alicization. The light novel version of this arc hasn't even ended yet, though it's close. We probably won't see more SAO anime until 2016 at least, so it shouldn't be a problem.
It's as long as all the other story arcs combined.
