I actually forgot that Kirito was first a loner at first, because after 3 episodes he turns into a charismatic man that every single girl falls for.

SAO was my first anime and was the anime that actually bought me into the "weeb world". the idea of season 1 was amazing because it talks about going into a virtual world but actually living in it and if you get killed by monsters and stuff, *well you die.* but season 2 onwards it just gets... *nani.* like the excitement and fear of "death" is gone and its just like any regular game honestly. I still like SAO that's a fact, but I still wished they didn't rush season 1 and throw Asuna's "character" (from S1 again) out the window. Also, the kirito harem annoys me. Not only cuz im an Asuna and Kirito shipper, but kirito mai boi ARENT YOU ENGAGED TO HER AHEM-

Well he doesn't really slowly go insane. He just kinda feels apathy towards other human beings. Whether or not that is considered insanity would be a case of ethnocentrism, as you cannot assume that an undead's culture would support human life, or excessive bias towards maintaining the former (as shown by cultural relativism). Now, I haven't actually watched Overlord's OP, only read the first 9-10 light novels (with anime covering up to the end of the third volume), but I find the main character to be highly rational and reasonable.

Following the Almighty Kirito as he Shonen-Protagonists his way through different games that he's just so totally naturally awesome at you guys until the plot gets bored and resolves itself is kinda boring.

I did not pay attention to the intro (to tell you the truth, I barely watched the entire episodes). I thought he might be the guy that Kirito killed to save Asuna. I wonder why they did not do it, they had two options: pick up a character we already know and give him some development, saying that he survived the Nervegear and lost the motor functions and now seeks revenge, or you can bring random characters that Kirito never mentioned and treating them as if they were great thing.

Wasn't the part where Kirito was surrounded by three shadows supposed to symbolize the fact that he was being weighed down by the fact that he killed three Laughing Coffin Members during the raid on their base? And Death Gun being Laughing Coffin caused his guilt to manifest itself more noticeably. That, and Kirito couldn't remember who the three he had killed were, nor who Death Gun was, which I guess strengthened the impact that his guilt had on him.

One thing that is like to point out about Asuna is her hairstyle. The braid represents her formal and elegant upbringing. While the lose small ponytail represents her _rugged_ side. I say rugged because at this moment as I type this I can’t really think of a better word and im a little to lazy to go and google up a proper word and mess up my safari. While I do enjoy the whole fairy costume they gave her albeit we hardly ever saw her wearing it. I did fell like that was their way of saying she really was the helpless damsel in distress.

No role in the story and 2. Apear for max a few minutes before fading into darkness when they where shown to have such importance in the op

Sad thing is, that the show doesn't acknowledge his existance most of the time, probably only because he is not a female. Really, his role 90% of the time boils down to being a comedic relief character and asking questions, so that someone can throw exposition at us. Ironically, he seems to have more personality than Liz and Silica

Okay, hear me out for a second. In crossing field, when Silica, Lisbeth, and Sachi are shown, each of their shots does have meaning. Specifically the backgrounds. Silica's is yellow and bright, indicating that she is mostly upright and happy. In Lisbeth's shot, we see that she is in front of her shop, showing where she has been for most of SAO. Also, the colors are normal, showing that her life as a blacksmith is her normal. And Sachi's does have the most meaning out of all of them. The colors are dark blue and black, showing her being depressed, and she's at the place where Kirito comforted her. So while it is not much there is a bit of symbolism.

8elementallords Nah not all. That's an exaggeration. A lot of Opening are flashy yes, but in many good amines, there is a lot of symbolism and foreshadowing. It's just that a lot of it is hidden or kept vague as to not spoil the show. For instance, JoJo's part 3 OP2 becomes much more crazy when you realize what the main antagonist's power is and how it was reflected in the OP. Hell, they even changed the OP to show that. Death Note has a lot of symbolism with some shots like Kira being Shadowed by his Shinigami revealing his corrupt nature and eventual death to the same Shinigami. While OPs are used to be flashy and appealing, a good OP is one that can introduce you to its characters and premise. SAO in OP1 just made all their characters brood because surprise surprise, they don't have any character. Compare that to Konosuba where the OP tells you everything about how each character relationships work, how each character has their own unique trait, and where it also reflects that sometimes they'll fail (and they do a lot which the OP emphasizes) but they will get one success at least. A good OP is supposed to introduce you to the entire show and give you a better sense of each character and the story.

sao's openings have absolutely no depth, nothing. It's all shallow. Once you've seen it once, you've seen it all. A good op has to make you want to watch it over and over again. I've skipped all of the SAO's themes after the second or third time, because they have nothing to it. When watching JoJo, however, I can't wait at the start of the episode for whatever theme is playing that time. Almost every shot has some sort of depth or excitement to it.

Well, when the fans say they like the openings/endings, they are usually referring to the music itself, as it was sung by famous Japanese singers before premiering on SAO. But, I know this is old, but the opening ADAMAS is personally one of my favourites. One of them.

Idk man, these OPs do a good job telling you what you’re in for. Aincrad arc: Passable with decent visuals and a few good ideas, even if a little cliche. Not particularly deep even if it pretends to be, but still alright. Fairy dance arc: a few strong if cliche images but quickly overtaken by gratuitous fan service, poor editing/pacing, and the complete destruction of Asuna’s character. A few shallow nods to the real vs VR theme but never examined in any depth. Gun gale: trying to be taken seriously but does so in such a clumsy way it fails to be interesting or even coherent. One or two glimpses of potential. Sinon has a decentish character at least, but otherwise all action with no substance. Edgy in a bad way. Mother’s Rosario: hey look, a new interesting character that this arc revolves around, and Asuna isn’t lame anymore. The guild mates aren’t well defined but that’s fine because the focus is on this one girl’s journey in VR to find fulfillment and that is kept as the main focus. Huzzah. Doesn’t mean they’re good, but they really reflect the general quality of the arc they’re representing.

The more I think about it the more hilarious it becomes. Especially considering that at that speed her boobs would also be generating an extremely loud noise. Anime titty physics at its most extreme

Here's how 99% of people rate OP's: Is the song good? If yes, watch it. If no, skip it. An OP can be a nice window into the show, but most people don't see it that way, and I think most animators have caught on to that. So they all they really focus on is making a song that fits with the show, and some cool shot's. That's why SAO openings do so well in the voting, because most people really couldn't care less about how telling an opening is

if you're watching a series, and you don't skip the opening, you start to compare pieces in the opening to stuff you've been seeing in the show, and you start stringing things together to form sort of expectations on what you think might happen next. that, and sometimes the song is also pretty catchy. but different people look for different things, but that doesn't mean that openings need to be lazy either.
