Well that's ok, everyone has their own way of assessing thing s anyway. I also drop shows that became a chore for me because I would rather leave and miss out on the series rather than finish it just to tell the world how much I despise that particular show. That's kind of an unhealthy habit in my opinion.

I didn't mean to put SAO on a high pedestal, I am just saying that there are a lot of other shows worse than this one yet people chose this particular series to sht-on, I mean at this point SAO became a show that every anime fan must watch so that they could tell the world how much they hate it or how shtty of a show it is. It became a trope, like when someone asks what is a good anime to watch people would jokingly refer Boku no Pico and in this case when someone asks what is the worst anime ever made they would most likely say SAO, like what? Have you guys only seen one show or are you guys just trying to ride on bandwagon of SAO haters?

That's just how it is for me, but I appreciate that someone could share their thoughts and disagree with me on this one because I think healthy exchanges of opinions like this shows that anime is not a medium that solely exist for kids (although they are mainly targeted towards that demographic) because we can actually hold proper discussions like this. Just hope that every one would use the kind of approach you did here, rather than saying degrading words that adds no value whatsoever to the conversation.

PS. I also like your articles, keep up the good work :)
