So, looking back on my reviews, I screwed it up on one of my reviews. Spending to much time on the plot, less time on the review. So, now that I've finished it, let's do this again.
You should already know the plot, so I'm not explaining it.
This show is great for anybody who likes to play video games or likes anime. It is not too long and not too short. It is perfect for almost all ages (recommended 12 or above) with little blood! I think they spent too much time on Kirito's character and didn't really spend much time on other people. I mean, yes we get it, he gets his outbursts of anger. Been there, done that... a lot. I would've liked to seen more episodes about Yui in the first half because you SPOILER WARNING get introduced to her in one episode and she's gone in the next SPOILER OVER. I would also like to see more about some of the backup characters like Klein and Egil. They just show up at the most convenient times ever. The second half of the show should be another series. UPCOMING PARAGRAPH IS A SPOILER, BUT HAS A SMALL OBVIOUS SPOILER SO PLEASE STILL READ IT.
The second half of the series is centered around another MMORPG called ALfhiem online. This is more magic and fantasy based. Basically, Kirito gets his little race and works his way to the "World Tree" for a certain incentive that will spoil way too much. Completely new characters and plot. Basically having about nothing to do with the first half.
This show is great for Video Game players and Anime Lovers. I give it an A- due to its time jumps and completely different second half.

I'm Back With... Angel Beats (2010)
I'm finally back to reviewing. I haven't really been watching many things worth reviewing lately. I did finish SAO though, and I still recommend it. But, now I have another show, a show that is sad, funny, and action...y. Anyway, the show is called Angel Beats (as shown in the title) and it is another anime.
The basic plot of this series is that the main character (Otonashi) wakes up in what seems to be a high school sport stadium of some sort. He basically has no idea of what is going on and has no clue of who he is. He sees a girl nearby him who is pointing a sniper rifle at another girl. She introduces herself (as Yurippe or Yuri for short) and asks if he wants to join the "Not Dead Yet Battlefront." So, basically what is going on is that this is an afterlife. If you decide to go along with the other "NPCs" you will get obliterated. When you get obliterated you get reincarnated, usually as a sea creature. So the girl that was getting aimed at is called Angel (actually SPOILER WARNING! it is Kanade SPOILER OVER!) She tries to get the battlefront to act normal and all be friends.
This show is a wonderful show, and bring a box of tissues for the last episode. Some people think that it is bad and that the character development lacks and all this stupid stuff. Yet, I find myself marathoning it... The show keeps you hooked with twists and unpredictable occurrences. I don't like the fact that some people are just introduced and HEY! You better care for this person. It is just a little random at times. It's sad how short it was though.
This show is great for anybody that likes Sci-Fi and Anime. I give it an A- due to its small randomness.
