Obligitory Animes Thread

You guys should try SAO(Sword art online). If you are a gamer, and you like RPGs this is one of the best animes you could ever see.

Umm yeah
it isn't.

Sorry I've seen it and it was really bad. The fight scenes were amazing though.They never out find why they are trapped by the creator of the game, the main character was never in any trouble, pointless harem, big plot holes, and supporting characters are not every interesting.
It had potential to be awesome but it fell short in all that jazz.

SAO is not REALLY bad, it's fairly simple, has teh boobs, but it's perfectly fine. Definitely worth the watch for action and game related stuff alone

Only reason to watch this show is the fights scenes. Only reason.

It has a reason though, meaning it ins't really bad. Not to mention the animation is good and the music is alright.

Pros and cons of SAO:
+music (Yuki Kajiura's masterful work again)
+visuals
+acting (it's actually pretty good)
-plot
-pacing

All in all, very flashy with a bland filling.

I prefer Accel World, to be honest. All the pros of SAO, but paced much better and it has a better story (YMMV).

A-1 Pictures made a much better anime following SAO. You need to check out Magi: Labyrinth of Magic.
