Sword art online is not original
1 Schooling
Good day friends, people, visitors and haters alike today I
am going to discuss something that I find disturbing around the subject of SAO.
If you read my previous blog on why I and many other (sane)
people believe sword art online is cheesy, useless and the main point is that IT IS NOT ORIGINAL you will find
that I got a lot of hate mail from fan boys accusing me of a lot of things that
really cut me deep and made me believe I was the only one that disliked anime
that steal material from other shows.
Now do not get me wrong I have no problem with using just a
hint of their material and subtly using it to the benefit of the show, for
example I will use fairy tail. Although I personally find this anime
distasteful “for reasons mentioned in my post about it” I would go so far as to
say the righters did a brilliant job in Inspiring it of Naruto yet they
masterfully added their own flavor to the equation

Now firstly if you create something E.g. a
movie, an anime based on the original source of material. You are
supposed to state it somewhere in your description of the ‘duplicate otherwise
it becomes plagiarism/rip-off which SAO did not mention at all.

Kawahara The creator of the
series has no concept of originality what so ever in fact his only other anime
Accel is just another spin off of Sword art online.

plots
Let’s take the two plots shall we …
Sword art online – Kirito is stuck in a virtual reality with
1000 other players, he needs to find a way for them to all get out, He is
initially depicted as a cynical loner who tends to avoid others as much as
possible, but his character development shows him growing to realize there are
people who care about him. He then falls in love with a girl named Asuna, a
female player who is the leader of the Knights of the Blood, a player
organization designed to fight injustice (NPC and player killing) in The World.
Most of the time Subaru is the only character preventing the Knights of the
Blood from running wild; she knows that they must be restrained from abusing
their power. and they both vow to leave the game so they can see each other in
real life.
.hack//sign- Tsukasa is stuck in a virtual reality with no
means to escape, he needs to find a way for himself to logout, He is initially
depicted as a cynical loner who tends to avoid others as much as possible, but
his character development shows him growing to realize there are people who
care about him. He then falls in love with a girl named Subaru, a female player
introduced as the leader of the Crimson Knights, a player organization designed
to fight injustice (NPC and player killing) in The World. Most of the time
Subaru is the only character preventing the Crimson Knights from running wild;
she knows that they must be restrained from abusing their power. And they both
vow to leave the game so they can see each other in real life.
I think I CAN END MY REVIEW RIGHT THERE. SAO IS AN UTTER RIP
OFF, I cannot understand why people try fight it, it does not make sense since
it isn’t even that good and it owes most of its homage to .HACK//SIGN and other
anime that came way before it.
And +Jorge Costa (HoneyPot) +Robbie Sarkioglu
The difference in those movies and anime series is that they
had different concepts storylines and the plot was not completely ripped off
and Digimon had a copyright violation against them.
You know I love the quote that states
“There is fine subjective line between homage and rip-off.
The old joke is that homage is when you copy someone else; a rip-off is when
someone else copies you. But to me, it’s about the difference between drawing
inspiration to create something new, versus slavishly copying to create
something derivative. That’s the difference between great artists stealing and
bad artists copying.”
In my opinion it was a good blatant copy. It is the only
anime which is so obvious.
But I respect everyone’s opinion and I have mad respect for
those who enjoyed this anime plus I love a good debate so please feel free to
comment on it or drop me an email at sike95anime@gmail.com
and like my facebook page @ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Animecrit/881579415233980
And yes I am click baiting what can I say, I love
controversy and a good debate.
But then again in the words(or flash) of Tristan Arkada from Glass Reflection Subtly put, this anime
is shit.
