I always admit The ways of my cowardly past I can't help that And still I always act afraid I'm oblivious and Now it's back to haunt me forever Countless skies that I've painted Surely, this is where my heart Finally doesn't fall apart Won't fall apart Jumping high from my dreams I'll fly no matter what the cost Today I'll find a way To shake off all the pain Within my dreams I'll touch the sky But I still realize I won't survive the fight Without you by my side You give me light when I have lost my way I fall asleep because I always find you in my dreams I wanna always be with you I'll give you everything I have The guiding light I found If I feel it for myself I'll remember everything Moments in my mind That were lost I know I'll find I can't replace them Just let me close my eyes Take me to a new world Where I can change my name And hide away from all my pain It's not the same When I drift off I go so far The wish that's in my heart Don't wait or hesitate Like I did at the start And carry you straight across the line Now place your hand in mine I swear I'll keep you safe Until the end of time I'll give you light when you have lost your way So fall asleep because from there I'll meet you in our dreams Jumping high from my dreams I'll fly no matter what the cost Today I'll find a way To shake off all the pain Jumping high from my dreams I'll fly no matter what the cost Today I'll find a way To shake off all the pain Within my dreams I'll touch the sky But I still realize I won't survive the fight Without you by my side You give me light when I have lost my way I fall asleep because I always find you in my dreams I wanna always be with you I wanna hold you tight right now I swear I'll wipe away your tears I'll give you everything I have

I don't know why this anime gets so much hate I love

[@matthewcloyd8413]

Most of the hate stems from a number of things. The most common complaints are of A. Yui B. The Plot Holes in the first arc C. Suguha being in love with her cousin/brother so you know, incest. D. The Sexual Assault scenes that basically every season has. E. The Gun Gale Arc.

[@KingsBard]

@@matthewcloyd8413 I don't get A and E, but I get the rest, also Kirito being a Gary Stu

[@robynvera8969]

@@matthewcloyd8413 You mean the glorification of said sexual assault scenes. A sexual assault scene on its own could hold some significance, to show that people who go through that aren't disgusting and can get help to recover. Instead they unload fan service in those moments and that's when it gets VERY bad, and from that point, even if it was meant to glorify it or not, it does. Just wanna clarify, not trying to start an argument. Just wanted to state my opinion.

[@MikeHunter265]

Mainly poor writing manifesting in the Gary Stu

[@dustinvance243]

@@robynvera8969 to be fair, I didn't get that impression from the time it happened in the gun gale arc and it did lead to an interesting character development for Sinon in alicization. Most people in her position would want their assaulter locked up forever or dead. But in Sinon's case, the assaulter was her friend. And more than that, he's the one that got her into ggo and started her path towards rehabilitating her fear of guns. Plus she knows that Kyoji was under immense psychological pressure due to his low grades and from his parents to succeed the family business. And once death gun's identity is revealed she's then able to deduce that he was being subtly manipulated by his brother. So kyoji wasn't even mentally stable when he assaulted her. And so at the very first episode of Alicization, she says that she hopes he can get the mental care that he needs so that he might one day become a functioning member of society. This is a level of maturity that is often unheard of especially for people in her age group. Now onto the one in Alicization, I think Reki learned his lesson from the last 2 attempts and it's actually executed a lot better. Instead of happening at the climax, it's in the middle and actually advances the plot. Plus there is sufficient build up in prior episodes as well as the episode itself. And this instance was a lot more intense as a result of that build up. Plus it doesn't just end with the rapists being butchered and everything going back to normal. There are realistic consequences dulled out to Kirito and Eugeo for the way they handled the situation. Their actions lead to their arrest. That episode is one of the few times I think a warning was given that was actually warranted.

I was aware of SAO's "reputation" before I started watching (I started watching like 2 days before I commented this) but I was still interested. Let's just say I definitely enjoyed it. While I prefer the first half of SAO when they're actually in SAO I definitely enjoyed the whole thing. As of now I have just started watching GGO so I'll update this. The show has flaws but I actually kinda like it. It's no Death Note or MHA or JoJo but it's definitely, in my opinion, a contender for my favourite anime list (yes really). Crossing Field is why I love the first half of SAO and this cover is great too. So glad I found this. This and Jonathan Young's cover are great. 👍🏻 Ok so I enjoyed GGO. Wasn't perfect but I wasn't disappointed. Now on to SAO 2
