Speaking of which, I hate the fact that the character designers took the lazy route with most of the background characters. As an MMO where people are forced to have their own faces, I'd expect it to be a great opportunity for people to look nothing like their profession, but without exception the designers make knights look like knights, lumberjacks look like lumberjacks, etc. I guess the latter was just a story being told be Kirito, but I feel like even the animators have forgotten that this is a game. Lumberjacks don't need to be stout men with mustaches.
