It's better than your favourite anime. I'll fist fight you to the death if you disagree.

Really? I've been meaning to watch it for several years now.
If Anime is dead, does that make us all necrophiliacs?
No. Backgrounds are stupid. Characters look stupid, the animation is stupid, and the self-narration is absurdly annoying.
Because even dirty, unwashed plebs know better than to vote for that show, man.
One time, I saw a restaurant throw some pao de queijo out for the local stray dogs to eat. The dogs sniffed it, and walked away. That bread was SAO, and the strays are the unclean masses.

Some youtube uploads from a while back seemed to have subtitles in other languages, but this one that I watched has serviceable english subs and was uploaded a month ago.

Considering some of us proclaim love to a few shows, sure.

The use of pretty colors and sexy poses make up for it.

Trying very hard to get through Clannad because I heard it was a heartfelt series but goddamn the character's actions are too over the top trying to be cute. On episode 11. Want to just give up right now. I'm amazed I've made it this far to be honest.
After Story is amazing but the thing is that most people won't even be able to go through the first act. UGH.
Cuz the show looks like shit half the time.
I fear this would be invested in taco bell big boxes and as such I refuse to pay.
Somebody has to keep their business going!
Or maybe it was intentional.
It wasn't a guaranteed hit given the age of the adaptation, I don't think, hence the tiny budget.. Hopefully budget increases from here on though.
Not if your goal is to promote the manga in the cheapest way possible.
Aniplex is doing it wrong. lol.
The game are the one they want to promote I think..
Damn where's my Stardust Crusader anime announcement already
worth it!
I agree. The show still sucks though.
The poses are pretty cool but sometimes they do look dumb.
15 is the low point of the show artistically for what it's worth. Peaks at 20 but it's more than adequate otherwise.
edit: whoops meant 20
oh mascot-kun~

I don't think the goal of the anime was to sell the manga (too old), but rather to service Jojo fans, which obviously did not require a lot of money to do successfully.

I want them to get up to Part 6 so I can have my Miyukichi Jojo.

I can't really call this "pretty colors and sexy poses"
It's a fun show, though.
I can't unsee that background as ttt_clue, even if they aren't exactly the same
Well, the manga is still ongoing. I'm sure creating new JoJo fans was at least a part of their thinking.

What's the point in promoting parts that are 16 years old?
There's nothing stopping them from adapting every single part up to the latest one.

I doubt it did anything for manga sales.
They probably just wanted to up its status as a multi-media franchise, coinciding with the games, cards and whatever else they're doing with it.
Which would be incredible, but would also take probably half a decade at least. I'd be fine with that, though.

They are promoting a brand that is still selling new manga and other merchandise.
