Wow. I've subscribed but not posted. O.o
Anyways, I feel kinda bad that Aoki doesn't get as much spotlight as Taichi. Although the character development is there he seems to be the odd one out. He's been a fave of mine in the series since I started the manga a few months ago. I was greatly saddened when there was but 2 chapters, but am quite surprised about the anime adaptation. Still, It seems to be heading into a love triangle? That's quite the headache. But since as I said I like Aoki better, I really won't be as invested in the ship wars heh. On the other hand this Uwa Chihiro character seems to be very interesting from what I read here.

I suppose I could place my faith in humanity, but I get the feeling there with be alot of battles to come... Of course, it's not like she could do any worse than Chiyuri And Even if they forget about Aoki this arc, they certainly, most probably, wouldn't in the 3rd arc. Quote:

Chinese Translation is up to ch.9 of Volume 4. And I've read a few comments about the translators not wanting to take on the volumes after that I guess I'll continue my slowly chewing of the raw scans... Edit: Oops, drama cd, my brain is not functioning apparently And apparently Chinese Translation has just begun working on Vol. 6 Quote:

Why would they hate their own ship
Nono, I think this upcoming conflict is going to be less about pairing, and more about which girl is 'nicer'. Quote:
Personally I can't bring myself to dislike SAO at all even though its Index's number one rival at Dengeki. On the other hand I'm finding it hard to care about AW at all. EDIT: Quote:

For the first time in my 3-years otaku life, I hate myself for reading spoilers. Hope this series won't end as tear-jerking as Bungaku Shoujo.

Reminds me that the translator for this series and I talked to each other and he said that he doesn't like the way the anime is going because of the focus. It has too much focus on fun and chit-chats compared to the novel and not enough on challenges, hurdles, learning to grow up and stuff.

Unless he's looking for the monologues of the characters like the ones at the end of each volume/arc, which I must say will not work in an anime adaptation. Unlike reading a novel, the anime POV don't usually allow viewers to read a character's thoughts. Not only that, monologues tend to be long and windy on screen, and is largely disliked by typical audiences. |

I honestly don't know what your translator friend is talking about- The Anime followed the Light Novel as faithfully as it could. All the major story points are there and all the right notes are hit. If anything there's not enough focus on fun and chit-chats.

My guess is tithe probably meant that the anime was too much "fun" consider to reading the LN. But these kind of things are subjective and depend on the small details. The colour intensity of the background, the small details and such play a major part on that impression. It's not about how "faithful" it is by the number of things adapted, but much more about the kind of excitement it gives.

So I just read through the pages of this thread to see what spoilers I could find out. Not sure if I'm happy or not that I did but whats done is done.
Spoiler:
Well I hope to hear more good things from the guys that are reading the Chinese translations.
