I don't like overpowered characters who win their fights too easily (i.e. in anticlimatic fashion), whether by themselves, with help from friends (and rivals)

I don't see what's wrong with a character's friends helping him win a fight?
That makes him less powerful if he can only win by teamwork-which does happen in SAO from time to time. Kirito needed Asuna's and the Army's help (AND THE ADMIN'S) to defeat Skull Reaper and he needed his sister's and her friend's help to get to the door of the World Tree. He tried to clear the Tree by himself and failed miserably. As ffor Skull Reaper
Spoiler for novel and anime:
He and Asuna were only able to block one of its scythes, Heathcliff(Kayaba) took on the other, and the rest of the players attacked as best they could until they finished it off. In the novel, Kirito explains it took
one hour to kill the thing. AN HOUR. A WHOLE HOUR with the aid of over thirty players!!
That's definitely
not "too easy" to me....
