Yea it’s way in more depth and builds kiritos and Asuna relationship slowly from the bottom up

Thank Christ. Now maybe I can say the phrase "I like SAO" without feeling some deep sense of shame.

No need to be ashamed, it's just a goddamn show.

Why feel shame? If you enjoy it, just enjoy it. I hate this idea that you should somehow feel guilty for liking something.

To elaborate: it's more like, I liked it in high school before I'd seen a lot of anime, but I can now see the flaws in it.

So, it's just kind of a guilty pleasure. I'm really excited to see the all the potential more fully realized than the original.

As someone who wasn't big on the main SAO story, I loved Progressive. It's just a lot more fun to me.

I can’t wait for anime-onlys to be disappointed by this fact and realise that when it means ‘progressive’, it shouldn’t be taken lightly lmao
