Illogicalzen Writes:
Sword Art Online was not a very good series, in fact it was a rather disappointing and largely flawed series, but neither was it terrible, with numerous elements that were interesting and a fascinating set of worlds. As a set of stories Sword Art Online partly fails because of its inconsistencies and generally problematic nature of the entire setup and how it is portrayed within the series itself.
I find that very arguable. If the amounts of flaws SAO had was not enough to qualify itself as "terrible" then I don't know what will.
For humorous purposes, let me refer to "10 things better than saving your E-waifu" (just google it)
