SAO should have been a multi-POV story, but if you had to pick one of all the characters to pick for a main-POV character, Kirito would be at the _bottom_ of my list. Even if you changed _nothing_ that actually happened in the story, using Asuna or Klein (or even better, alternating between them) as the POV character(s) would have massively improved the story. Seriously, one of the _best_ things about isekai over normal fantasy is getting to learn about the new world _with_ the main character, and Kirito is _not_ an interesting enough reason to throw that away for. Hell, just look at the first month in game. Asuna is going from knowing _nothing_ about the game to one of the best players and Klein is trying to get his friends together into a guild and pass on what little he was taught while figguring the rest out and Kirito....? He did so little of interest that _the story completely timeskipped the month!_ Or if you want to _actually_ make a bold choice that is as dark and edgy as Kirito wishes he was, start with Diavel as the MC, then make Sachi the MC, THEN make Asuna/Klein the MC. You'd never be short on tension again!
@@dynamicworlds1 Right? I would have liked to know more about toffany. (Sorry, it's sao abridged. Had to use that name) It's an mmorpg game they're trapped in. Group dungeons are going to be a key part of it.

And he succeeded on keeping his entire guild alive until the end which not many, or any, other guilds can say they did. And it's all entirely offscreen because we're following kirito, a guy so uninteresting in accomplishments the story has to skip over almost the entire two years they were trapped in the game.
I created a TikTok JUST to follow you so that you'll watch DBZ Abridged. The fact that you don't wanna watch it, makes me want to see you watch it even more.
4:29 terrifying yes, but it would also be necessary for full dive. otherwise youd break sooooo much of your own shit, not to mention hitting things (or have an incident like at 4:40). that being said, im pretty sure anything like this would have to have an emergancy exit or something that forced whatever was running to close and disconnect
After finishing Hellsing and when you guys finish sao i would love to see your reaction on project's mouthwash fate:UBW abridged which isn't fully finished yet but worth a shot.
Rewatching SAOA always makes me wanna go and rewatch and binge the anime. And yes it does have his moments were it's ...questionable .... *cough* second half of season 1* ...but I genuinely love this series and characters like Eugeo and Yuuki.
If you're talking about the incest, they're japanese, live in Japan and the age of consent is 13, not 18 so is quite normal to have relatives have an intimate relationship. The anime that I know of which doesnt do incest or age of consent 13 is Black Butler, Idk anything of the half with Alois but I know enough of the first Season and it takes place in England while no incest.
I disagree that SAO abridged is so much better than the original. Sure its funnier, but I've seen the original multiple times and never once thought "man, this is bad" or "kirito is boring" so I've never understood why people say it's bad. Even reading through these comments explaining their reasoning doesn't change my mind because I fundamentally disagree with a lot of their "points".
The problem i see is a lot of people forcing themselves to watch a genre of anime they dont enjoy ie Harem, OP MC, etc and then complaining when they don't like it. The abridged is only better to these people because it changes the original show into a genre they like ie Comedy, Parody, Slapstick, etc.
@@gbemilekeitabiyi2280 Riiiight, SAO is more accurate in this and it is 2022, this series got everything right including the ads in the game, usernames sxx jokes and ridiculous and do I have to remind you this parody got actual gamers right?

I really enjoy these reaction videos, however since you have already seen this, you are basically predicting the funny lines and reacting ahead of time which is messing with her reactions as a person who hasn't seen it, and it has even led to her missing certain things. If she does miss things, you then go and explain them to her, often talking over another joke. Let the content breathe a bit and let her enjoy this masterpiece! No hate, btw. Just a general critique of how I felt watching this one. I really enjoy showing other people SAO Abridged, and like you find it far superior to the original. I hope this doesn't come across poorly, but since you have already seen it, the true joy of this comes from watching her genuine reactions as a person who hasn't seen it. Let it breathe.

I’ve been waiting for this ever since you announced your intention to make Kirby watch this series.
I had to show her this
The whole, "watch this funny TH-cam video with me" vibe, it's why I'm here.
This opening is fire it get used to great effect in "Guilded Guy vs Bog."
As soon as I saw the thumbnail you had my like. loved that series since it first started and is kinda a better story as a whole than the actual show.
What Kirby’s turning 20 next month?
She’s so young!!
I know right?
Song is "This is war by thirty seconds fo mars" for those that dont know
You guys are going to have so much fun with this, specially when you meet Silica.
YEEESSSS!!! I can't wait for her opinion in this one!!!

I created a TikTok JUST to follow you so that you'll watch DBZ Abridged. The fact that you don't wanna watch it, makes me want to see you watch it even more.
One of the great things about SAOabridged is just the sheer amount of improvements to the series, even including to the animation and visuals.
*realizing kirby isn't over 20 years old yet* am i living a lie or is a lie living me? (i fixed my typo, i meant 20)
I think that they both just said they're not 20 yet was a bigger surprise...
Been a Kirby fan on TikTok since you introduced her on here. And it is now... OVEEERRR 9 THOUSAND!!!
I don't have Tik Tok as I'm too old for that and I told myself I would never get it, but It's A Small Price To Pay For Salvation
