While I actually love what A-1 did with the Aincrad arc, I have to admit that fight scenes take more pages in the LN than their screen time in the anime. it could've been done differently, hell, if you incorporate all the side stories and stretch out the fights etc, Aincrad arc could've lasted the full 25ep. but I like what A-1 did better  |
Fight scenes always takes pages when read in LNs while it only takes some time in anime, reason of it is because LN describes the inner thought proccess of the MC which makes a couple mins fights felt like days. That kind of inner thoughts can't fully be brought to anime, it happens to most animes not just the one being adapted.
