I hear this anime is average, haven't watched it yet. Have seen a few episodes of accel world though, looks good.
It's not. It's honestly your typical hyped shonen garbage shit.
No redeeming value whatsoever.

Alrite, not finishing it then. Only watched about 2 episodes anyway.

The main problem of SAO is that it's good, but not nearly as good to live up to that massive hype built around it. Accel World is totally awesome though.

Hype or no hype that doesn't excuse how terrible kirito is as a character, and basically every character in the franchise.
It's literally a dumbed down version of .hack//.

If this is truly your opinion of the show, I have to ask, how far into it did you watch? I watched every episode of SAO and while it may not be my favorite anime, its definitely top 10 and probably top 5.
Does .hack//Sign get better after the first few episodes? I watched the first 3 I think, but I stopped because the main guy was so obnoxious...

SAO isnt even SAO past the first half of season 1. Entire anime should have been in that world, not rushed into a few episodes like they did. Sure the characters are cool but the anime has terrible character development. Why are we sad that [SPOILER=""]Asuna Dies[/SPOILER] if we know nothing basically nothing about her? Why isnt anyone sad about all the other randoms lol. Personally I thought the first half of season 2 was ok but then they did the same thing as season 1 and made a completely random story that doesnt fit in.
Accel world is much much better. You actually see a lot of character development from the main character.

Pretty much this. I actually really liked the first season, but after that I slowly lost interest. The world of Aincrad was really cool, and I'd have much preferred to see more of it. Still it's not terrible, and I still fail to see how .hack is any better really.

DO NOT reveal the spoilers if you haven't seen all of SAO/SAO2 and plan to watch them!
I've seen every episode and you mixed up something...
[SPOILER=""]Konno Yuuki dies, not Yuuki Asuna[/SPOILER]
And if you watched those episodes, then you know exactly why we're sad!:cry:
The other "randoms" didn't get so much story to suck you in. When you find out [SPOILER=""]The Sleeping Knights are all terminal, and Zekken's condition is constantly getting worse[/SPOILER] that should trigger an immediate emotional response/connection.

[SPOILER="answer"]cause some crazy dude though it was a great idea to make the brain wave sensor enough powerful to fry people`s brain and to set it up that if people die in the game the headgear will fry the brain or if you try to remove the helmet.[/SPOILER]

I said that to reference that part of the story, since that's one of the big moments that really grabbed people. Realistically tell me how much was revealed about Asuna by that point, literally nothing. They only did slightly better in Season 2 but again it's not even SAO anymore.

Sao was fine for what it was, but it's nowhere near the god damn retarded mindless fandom levels people chalk it up to be, so many anime do it better, log horizon for one being probably leaps and bounds, worlds better in just about...everything.
