Well... at least Rin-sama is specific about his complaints. I'd seen the character (re)designs a while back and given that the SHAFT team was involved... their artstyle is just different --- I gave it a pass since you could still tell who was who. Kind of like looking at a character done by different artists in their own styles.
I admit I have no clue why anyone thought messing with Asuna's eyes was okay.
I'm ambivalent about the finger writing because frankly, manga is a collection of still frames... in fact, parts of volume 11 during the fight sequences.. its rather tough to figure out what is going on at times (Ken A. lacks some finesse in combat storyboarding).
The real key will be the story ... we know it isn't going to follow the manga line for line though it may incorporate concepts or major events -- but will it capture the spirit of the characters and the flavor of the adventures? Dunno til we see it.
