Then the OP kicks in, the main characters counterattack, Kirito and Asuna perform a combo attack, and the viewer is reminded that this is not a grimdark show, it's a show that believes in Earn Your Happy Ending.
Great description of the trailer.

I remember reading an ANN article of the author giving a lecture that he writes his novels like their were an anime script. Apparently he's genre savvy to know his works might be animes in the future so why not make it easier for the studio to adapt it.
