Alicization is fantastic and I recommend picking it up! SAO showed it can still tell a story

SAO was bad, but it's copycats are terrible.
SAO was excellent here and there (Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, The Black Swordsman, Mother's Rosario) and was at least decent all the way through.
It was just one of those series that became so commonly loved by normies that advertising one's hatred of it became an easy way to gain instant edgelord cred.
SAO was genuinely great, but it overstayed its welcome.
I wouldn't call it great, but it was pretty good for the first half of the first season.
Oh we're talking about the anime. The manhua was great. Is the anime really that bad?
