    Sword Art Online is done, and there's only a few other anime which are probably one the same level as it, so what am I going to do once I get through with them? Why couldn't they continue the show longer? I really feel like it could use a lot more to it

    Crappy harem show was crappy. I love the part though, right, where they build up this cool plot about freeing themselves, right, and then throw it to the background so we can spend three hours on the real plot of how Kirito gets his virtual dick sucked by having a nice coat and a level grinding fetish.

    NEVER!!!

    And also because I'm kinda tired of training pokemon, and don't feel like league. I'm really starting to get bored of that game, I might just have to take it off now that I think about it. And our tv is useless right now with my dad installing the surround sound, so I can't play Lost Odyssey.........I really need that House of Hades book right about now

    Because the only things I watch that aren't anime are hour long shows, and I kinda don't feel like watching hour long episodes right now. And then the movies I want to watch aren't online right now, so that makes that a big bupkis

    On Netflix, or more than anything, even on something like Putlocker. I'm just waiting for the stuff in theaters, or stuff to get released later

    Watch Attack on Titan.
    It's not a harem anime. Sure there are at least four girls who are all attracted to him but he has consistently been attracted and devoted to only one and doesn't noticed or is deliberately not noticing how other girls are attracted to him. Not to mention his relationship with this one girl is one of the main focus' of the show. A harem anime would focus on his relationship with multiple girls & their attraction to him rather then just one. Silica gets about one episode, Liz gets one episode but decides to let Asuna have him and she is pushed to the background and gets more screen time then Silica, one girl dies, and then there's his sister who lasted the longest but ultimately goes no where as Kirito doesn't share any attraction to his sister (and he shouldn't cause incest is creep).

    So yeah, do not go past Go, do not collect 500 dollars.

    Hi, I typed a paragraph so I must be right, right?

    It can be a harem thing without it being mutual. When you spend half the show talking about how he's so dreamy to everyone, it's basically a harem show. If anything, it defying conventions just makes it a unique harem show[DOUBLEPOST=1384713802][/DOUBLEPOST]Addendum: WHEN YOU THROW THE MAIN PLOT OUT FOR HALF THE SERIES AND FOCUS ON THE FETISH BABES, IT'S A HAREM SHOW

    If you're so bored, read Fine Structure. It's like Doctor Who with the hard sci-fi of Star Trek, the narrative style of Douglas Adams, and just about everything that anyone could ever want out of science fiction. Space travel? It's in there somewhere. Superpowers? Got it. Evil mastermind? Checkarooni. Teleportation? Major subplot. Post apocalyptic civilizations? Dozens of them. FTL tech? It's what started everything.

    This is basically how I feel too. It's a harem anime designed to look like it's not a harem anime and fails miserably at it. It's an alright show that I look forward to each week, but it's nothing spectacular and would have been better off remaining a series of novels. In terms of anime, .hack is basically the same premise but done at least 80% better, probably more.

    When did they throw out the main plot? They kept the plot nice and simple the whole way through.

    Except that's the problem. It had a lot of potential, but then what should have been the main plot got overshadowed by the romance plot that was clearly extremely minor until the Fairy Dance arc in the original series.

    Still seemed like the main plot was there completely fine all the way through. Sure, the romance had a bigger role during the second half, but that doesn't mean that it took away from the plot itself, it just means that in a whole, the romance was just a bigger part than the first half. That doesn't mean that it isn't there or it get's overshadowed. You're just looking at it as separate things when you should really view it as a whole

    The floor conquering plot was thrown out until midway through. Sure, it was in the background but they could easily remove the one sentence it got an episode and nothing would be lost.

    Yes, but it hardly had any part at all in the Aincrad arc of the original series. What the anime did was completely ruin a perfectly good book. The stuff between Kirito and Asuna should have waited until the Fairy Dance arc where it belongs.

    You go read the Light novel online or you move onto another anime. E.g; Everyone who loved SAO when it came out moved onto Shingeki no Kyojin when that came out.
