Seriously, if this series did not take itself so seriously and was more of a comedy, this series would be a Harem

Yes and no... on the one hand the SAO incident was a huge event that should have caused a lot of fear in the nerve connected VR technology for recreational use that would lead a lot of companies distancing themselves from that choice of game interaction. However, it could be defended IF there was already many games like SAO already out using that same tech... if the VRMMO genre was already huge with tons of games, one terrible incident would cause bad press for the genre but not kill it; but a second similar incident right after that one however, would cause a lot of damage... though we never really hear of any other games in the genre
