Honest Review Of Sword Art Online: Alicization

- In This Video, I will be giving my honest review of the anime Sword Art Online Alicization and ranking the characters on a tier list! This is going to be a series where I watch all the SAOs until my brain cells have all deteriorated. My content is satire in nature and while it may sound like I disliked the anime it's mostly bad jokes. I will be talking about what makes it a good anime... by insulting everything about it. Season 1 of this anime was released on Oct 7, 2018. There are a few more series left after Alicization. There is a Light novel that you can read, so I recommend reading it even though I have no idea what happens. This video contains Large spoilers, so be aware if you plan on watching the anime or reading the manga. This anime is available in dub.

Eugeo was actually the one who saved sao series as a whole because he had chad energy 😎
Just like Yuuki. And they had to take them both out because no one would care for Kirito anymore if they were still alive.
@@VixYW I dunno the game does it pretty well I think
Eugeo arc is written like that . His goal is to meet His childhood friend Alice zuberg which he finally got & saved Kirito from death while actually giving a trauma into him
@@jacobgroves9274 The game is a whole different continuity. For starters, since they were forced to keep playing SAO until the 100th floor, Kirito got way stronger there, to the point he canonically beats Yuuki at the end of Hollow Fragment.
@@VixYW No I know it is, I was just saying that euego is still alive in that game and kritio is liked just as much if not more, also I've only played the game based on underworld so
Only Kirito could take another man as his sword so he can dual wield two phallic objects.
Funny story about the scene with the two bullies: after the anime episode that featured it aired, Kawahara tweeted two things. One of them was an apology to the VAs followed by an explanation of why he included so many scenes like that in the source material (In a nutshell, they're there because Past Reki wanted an easy way to make readers hate the villains).
The other one was him being baffled by the way this time it's animated in such a ridiculous manner.
Alice is Saber Artoria confirmed!
give me baeber
I wouldn't say shes's Artoria but a saber face
artoria rider reveal ngl
new fgo event leak???????
She is darkness actually
I know we've all seen that Quinella doujin. I have to side with Eugeo man, that's a major W
if you think eugeo is a good coprotagonist for kirito you need to watch war of under world were is alice the main focus and SHE IS JUST SO COOL ,until kirito comes back and save the day(of course)
Pros: Kirito was the most fun and believable he has ever been compared to past seasons. Quinella was one of the most competent rare antagonists I've had the joy to see. I'm surprised that exposition was done really solid.
Cons: I'm not a Eugeo fan, nuff said. Its so obvious the writer didn't know what to do with Alice's character, so he isekaied Fate Stay Night Saber into doing the job for snack-buns for free.
Eugeo was more proof that sometimes it takes a real man to be best girl.
you're so right about eugeo's death, I didn't expect him to actually be dead, and then moving to alicization part2 my heart was hurting the entire time because eugeo was my favorite character by a long shot.. Then few years later I rewatched it, this time knowing he was gonna die, and man, it was 1000 times worse
I never faulted Eugeo. Quinella gets it. Just stay cool lunar, stay cool. :)
Nothing is wrong with recognizing voice actor with their voice
Thank goodness. I am normal
Because no one is normal
It's just a stupid concept
be yourself man
I wished Quinella wore clothes. It made the whole final fight so awkward and uncomfortable to watch
lol I couldn't use the clips because of it pain
"You've made it to the top of the tower and to my personal chambers. Let me formally greet you by removing my nightgown"
Ma'am that won't be necessary
ik the entire time i was like PUT ON SOME CLOTHES
A anime list that Lunar should review:
- Hellsing Ultimate
- Id:Invaded
- Juuni Taisen
- Prison School
- FLCL
- Munou na Nana
- Summertime Render
- Dorohedoro
- Asobi Asobase
- Mirai Nikki
id:Invaded definitely!
ID:INVADED IS JUST SO COOL
bro forget re:Creator
@@bilirain
No bro I didn't. Re: creators deserves also a review.
i would love to se him do prison school. that would be so funny
I'm just surprised you didn't mention Eugeo is just Kirito with blonde hair.
I have 3 things my dumbass forgot to include. That. Get you a girl who looks at you the way he looks at his sword. and and... Well crap I forgot again
I liked every season of SAO but that's probably because I only started watching 1 month ago and unlike other people I didn't have to wait so i never built up hate for kirito.
It's a introspective hate on him. He's a cookiecutter, blank slate. Goodie two shoes, but then sorta scummy in other areas. So people realize that and hate him. You know those character types that are too strong yet let other weak people die etc.. for no reason. Also pretending to be pure and stuff yet doing underhanded stuff and stealing etc...
You watching these seasons like crazy 🙂, also i can see why tho I am the same i love SAO ❤️ and Your videos are great 🔥 always bring a smile to my face 🙂
Glad you enjoy it!
Waited for this since I saw your channel. Thanks for your wonderful work!
Thanks!
I love your Tiffany reference xD
And yes, the UMU is everywhere, the UMU is eternal!
Genuinely love your sense of humour, man
Thanks!
Are you blind eugeo was clearly more interested in Kirito he wanted to be the first male member in the harem.
loll 😂 I was waiting for them to just kiss already
Kirito x eugeo 🥰
Don't worry he is thanks to the games
Low key this season saved sao for me
The Voice actors thing. I remember watching some random anime (Vivy) and hearing some random character...WAIT IS THAT LELOUCH..of course it was him.
Japanese VA are something else man. Pure passsion and hardwork they put into their work usually makes you remember them even across decades. I watched Code Geass during its release and Vivy was like 12 years later and I still had no problems with that.
I liked how I hear you say Eugeo's name as Yu-Gi-Oh
Sword art is one of them shows that has some faults but i can binge watch so easily i dont have to think much
I like this season. The thing that kinda threw me off was 1 or 2 episodes was an exposition dump and that grapey guy
Yeah they did give me information overload too but I just thought it was because I was watching it in 2x speed
I always love watching your videos and seeing you change the name of the anime always brings a big sparkle to my face
The whole series in a nutshell: You maybe the admin but I am a man of focus and sheer fkin will.
Hold on did he called him Tiffany??? *rewinds to check* HELL YEA HE DID I LOVE THAT
Man part two was so good I completely forgot that Eugeo clapped some cheeks and got clapped himself.
Finally. I’ve been waiting for this
A1 managed to ruin the best arc in SAO, but it still came out rather decent. For you know this arc contained 7 volumes of LN. And most of it gone.
Add that on with unnecessarily added fan-service scenes and anime original scenes that made no sense, yeah they messed up royally. Glad that the director for Alicization got sacked from being a director for the Progressive movies…hopefully they keep him out of Unital Ring as well.
@@phillipn6475 well, if you've read progressive and watched movies, you know that a1 decided to throw original plot in the trash bin and introduced a whole new character
@@giza_5622 Although Progressive did have a good chunk of original scenes, I thought that it was well executed and actually fits in the story. Aria in the novels was pretty dry to be fair, and by incorporating scenes from the manga and original scenes into the movie it elevates it even more. It’s not like the movies had useless addition such as Yuna and Eiji being added in WoU, which was purely just fan-service. The scene being added was most likely the reason why PoH’s backstory got butchered. In the novels he was a mercenary for hire while in the anime, they turned him into a racist/abridged his backstory.
I haven’t seen the Scherzo movie yet since it is out only in Japan atm, but I’ve heard that some BIG plot points were changed. Need to see for myself. If Ono directed Progressive, I bet you he will add Kirito’s piss eyes in the boss fight just to add hype.
@@phillipn6475 i know right. When i watched aria myself i thought Asuna's gamer friend would die since original Aria starts with Asuna's anxiety in the dungeon. But i genially don't know what to think right now. This new character herself created 2 or 3 plot holes. Like, if ger friend is a beta tester, why didn't she explained to Asuna that YOU CAN WATCH ON YOUR PARTY MEMBER HEALTH AND NAME? THAT IT IS MORE EFFECTIVE TO HAVE 1 STRONG WEAPON? etc. They we're henging arount for almost 2 months. I can't decide if presence of this new character will lead to greater disaster or not because her existence have no point rn imho
@@giza_5622 Yes, that’s usually the issue with adding original content, ESPECIALLY a new character. Even with that flaw, the movie was still presented/directed better than the entirety of Alicization. For Alicization, instead of guessing which scenes they would improve on in the novels from episode to episode, I was actually thinking more about how they are going to screw up certain scenes. That just shows how much they messed up in terms of an adaptation. The show may be decent to anime onlies, but to Novel readers, it’s an absolute nightmare.
Great video, keep it up😁
The way you narrate make it so funny. Good work
First half of next arc is SAO at it's best, because Kirito isn't in it. Unforchantly if followed up by instant dissapointment, which is expected by now.
Cap the second half was good aswell
I can't wait to see the next season review now lmao 😆
As much as I love this garbage fun isekai, I really hate how Kirito always change to his iconic sao jacket suit with dual blade, that thing was just dumb and didn't make sense. They literally made him do that because he looks so cool lmao.
The reason for him switching back to the blackwrym coat was something the anime did not adapt well (go figure). Since phantom bullet he has been running from the past, and more accurately the black swordsman title. He is happy that no one in the underworld knows his past, but he still hides from the past by intentionally never using the skill he was most known for in SAO, the Vorpal Strike. Him gaining the coat again while activating vorpal strike is symbolizing acceptance of the mistakes of the black swordsman. Him dual wielding at the end is even more acceptance, on top of his drive to save eugeo. I haven't gotten to the end of alicization yet, but this is what I gathered. Hopefully that explains a little bit more about one of the worst adapted arcs yet.
@@Andysomethingisfoolish So thats why he was nerfed. I see.
@@AndysomethingisfoolishIs the Vorpal Strike = Starburst Stream?
@Shaunathon No. Vorpal strike is the skill he uses an enhanced incarnate version of to defeat Chudulkin. Starburst stream is the skill he uses in the battle with the gleam eyes, at the end of Ordinal Scale, and while acting as a conduit to overload Gabriels fluctlight.
Thanks for the explanation. What I wonder though is Vorpal Strike > Starburst Stream? Will he use it more against other enemies/villians/bosses?
Bro is on the grind with the uploads deserves a subscribe BECAUSE HE'S JUST SO COOL
My Just So Cool Counter Is Now -999 Let's Go!
@@LunarEquinox 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The fact that you called Tiffany Tiffany tells me you've watched the real SAO. Any hope of you doing an honest review for SAO Abridged?
Dang it I didn't even mean to do that. Also it is pretty unlikely since it is so funny by itself
I love watching your takes on Sao its soo fun anyway.
I wonder whats your take on the next part will be.
Probably as garbage as my last take lol
CONGRATS ON THE CHANNEL GROWTH!!! Crazy fast. But the thing I hate the most about SAO is how kirito was given the Egg all mmo's were made off of but he never uses the admin powers and just gave it away.... How dumb..
I thank you, you made my req
I mean if kirito did off the integrity knights it would be out of character since he does care about npcs and they need extra man power for the war💀plus this season was rushed since it adapted a light novel even tho it has a lot of episodes it still rushed stuff cuz there’s just to much content to fit characters etc
You should definitely review The Asterisk War if you can
havent even watched the entire video yet but as sao being one of the first animes I have watched I agree with the thumbnail that eugio is a simp
Hoping for "A Place further than the Universe" review :)
Sao is my favourite anime I enjoy it a lot and can identify flaws but still enjoy it however I do think the hate it get is very unwarranted
It does get a lot of hate I think it is just kind of a turn your brain off anime and luckily for them my brain is always off.
Lunar you should review noragami
Can you plz lunar
i love it how when you discribed Alice i said to my self she's just Baber and seconds later you do the same thank's...
also can't wait for you to hear by my humble opinion best opening of SAO beeing Reona - ANIMA [Sword Art Online Alicization - War of Underworld 2nd Season OP]
yess anima is so good
0:30 fun fact: Sora and Shiro have the same VAs as Kirito and Alice
Now, onto the War of the Underworld!
While you are doing sao, do the only other series to do a cross over manga with them "the irregular at magic high school"
4:09 save by Umu as it should be lol
but if Jesus kun was my boyfriend...
This man is thinking outside the box and I respect it
@@LunarEquinox just roleplaying his sister
Eugeo was easily the best character in SAO (might not be saying much, but still true). The fact that Kirito didn't mention Eugeo once while talking to Alice pisses me off to this day.
Eugeo T-posing is on a whole other level of cringe
Stay cool, Lunar!
I love that his name is canonically Tiffany now, ah SAO abridged...
5:57 HIS JUST SO COOOL!!!
So no one gonna talk about how he skipped the second half of season 2
If Asuna was my girl f-
Based
@@LunarEquinox Is Based to say Based to someone who is based
Bro this is so funny 😄
5:51 Bryce commented on this in the bloopers lol
Rofl that Umu joke
I said "I knew it!" simultaneously
with the video XD
Honestly, imo the best and only good part of Sao as an anime only at least. I heard that the novels handle things better but ehh, probably won‘t bother reading them.
Sad part is, at least for me, the second part was back to being mediocre at best even though Kirito was in vegetable mode.
Shows that it‘s the unnecessary Round of Harem is the bad part not „Omg he‘s so Cool-Kirito“...
cool vid.
Peak SAO imo. I wasn't interested in it first 50 episodes, but Alicization really gave me everything I wanted from the series. Eugeo best boi.
I love Alicization. I want more. I had some dislikes, but they didnt linger too long except for the fact that the other sao villains had OP power for absolutely no reason.
Hi lunar can you review noragami plz 🙏
Alice is Esdeath's nice firey cousin confirmed.
Wait! Wait! Wait!
Why didn't you make a video on the mother's rosaria arc(the last arc of Sao season 2). It was the freaking best arc out of all of Sao!(and the only decent one too).
What the hell! Lunar! Are you making a part 2 of season 2 or not?!
Only decent one is a reach but it is my favourite
Lol I might just do it ... maybe... maybe not.
@@LunarEquinox Please do it!
Also thanks for this video. It was amazing as always!
Kirito talks no jutsu Eugeo😂😂😂
I’m surprised you didn’t make the senbozakura meme
It was in the original script for the tier list part but I didn't know if people would get the baber tier. Might use it in the next one though
@@LunarEquinox w
In my opinion, the beginning of the season really blew my socks off. I absolutely LOVED the first few episodes of the season, but after the fight against that queen lady (I forgot her name) I think the show just got boring for me.
Quinella
Hey man, any chance you could watch and review Plunderer?
Maybe but I have along list
@@LunarEquinox No worries, just wanted to know if there was a chance. I liked it and would be interested in what you thought.
Alicization is the best season!
ur channel is hilarious omg
Do sword art offline next😂😂
Thx now i feel call out for recognising voice actor all the time xDDD
I can't wait to see your review about a Vegetable Un-Vegetizing itself to become jesus-kun to defeat satan-chan.
0:27 that’s a old reference in itself
Eugeo great value prototype Arthur confirmed?
please cover the modern gundams like ibo, unicorn, ect
Thanks so much I love your vids especially the Fate vids pls review the modern Gundams
The first SAO core is still the GOAT.
What I’m here for

Code geass and Stein gates review please
When are you going to cover the mother Rosario arc?
good question I have no answer
@@LunarEquinox understandable, have a great day
Stay cool Kirito.
Alicization tried getting rid of the harem, War of Underworld tried getting rid of Jesus-kun, I’d love to see your take on the next arc hah :)
there was literally never a “harem” in the first place, it’s literally so obvious that kirito doesn’t care about the other girls in a romantic way like he does with asuna
@@dantestryder Colloquially we call it a harem, but the main character trait of basically every girl in the show being that they love Kirito is just bad writing imo... on top of it being sexist as hell, it for sure doesn't pass the Bechdel test, which should be EASY to do
i have watch 1st episode of this but got bored so i quite it.
if i was eugeo to i would fold
bruh that is pathetic... But same tho
6:24 I mean do see her cup size(also one of the girls I wish Kirito to be with if it isn’t Asuna)
Did you notice that in almost every isekai anime it never rains
I have not
How many lumberjacks out of 10 would you give to the first part of the anime? (first 13 episodes)
What he reviewed was the first part of the anime so its 8 out of 10
@@Gemcy true but i meant the first part of the first part
@@slbhugomarques2 Like, before the major fights? The world-building?
8.5 maybe idk I forgot about the anime already
@@LunarEquinox LMFAO based
3:34 old habits dies hard lol
I didnt like how this anime basically ditched video game world aspect that it once had in the first ever season.
Honestly, the only thing I could thing about alice is, its the second coming of Violent Evergarden,
" I think you want to review all SAO seasons before moving on to another anime "
Can we talk about how stupid Rath was with their AI goal? Like seriously, they’re just TRYING to create Skynet at this point. If they just wanted something that was smart enough to point a gun and shoot, why not grab any one of the Integrity Knights? They perfectly capable of killing so long as it is within the Taboo Index, and they also follow orders to a T. Why would you want an AI that’s not only able to disobey orders but is naturally inclined to do so.
I mean who doesn’t love Maaya Sakamoto
Especially Fate fans (Jeanne, Da Vinci, Shiki, etc.)
The SAO war arc was fk lit
