  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

I've seen the anime so I knew everything that happened going into this book and I honestly loved it. There's so many mixed views on the anime and I get all the hate but the bits in Aincrad are honestly good. This was much better than the anime, it cut out all the unessecary filler/fanservice and just gave the complete plot and romance that I loved about the anime. It was fun to experience this adventure in a new way :)
