I do not watch many romance animes, so I could not say which is the best but the romance in Steins;Gate (Okabe x Kurisu) and Ano Natsu de Matteru was really good.

However, a harem is not 'romance' in any sense of the word. My definition of romance (and also one of the most common definitions) is the love between two people. But yes, the author himself said that that SS was non-canon on Twitter. |

Let's put it this way, the way the romance competition is going here is like how Vince Carter sealed the 2000 dunk contest with the first dunk. It's over in the first volume.
...Yeah, and we'll have SAO main volumes caught up before the anime even airs...

I personally wouldn't mind seeing a ME or side story detailing Asuna 'chasing' Kirino... We certainly get a lot of other girls's chasing him from their POV, but not so much of her doing it from her POV. Aria, AFAIK, is really it and that really doesn't qualify. And some of the ME4: Cold hand, Warm heart content (Note, I've only read the translated bits). |

Argo was never friends with Kirito and co. which is most likely why she doesn't contact them once freed. She's an information broker, so she holds no allegiance. Though you could argue that she may hold a certain fondness for Kirito, that comes nowhere close to actual friendship.

According to Aria, he met argo then Asuna, but assuming Arai is canon since we see it in the anime, something must have happened for Asuna to forget Kirito or something like that because apparently she din't recognize him when they met in the upper floors

I don't think he ever added her to his friend list though? Unless you're talking about meeting, in which case what I touched on earlier of the difference between acquaintances and friends fits. The rest of the people on your list know Kirito on a personal basis and they've all shared experiences with Kirito, creating an emotional bond he doesn't have with Argo.

Hmmm, that doesn't seem like a bright idea to me considering the fact that friends can use friend traces and thus people would be able to buy information on where Kirito is at any moment.
But regardless, my previous point still stands. Assuming Kirito put Argo on the list because he thought of her as a friend, I would surmise that their relationship would be that of normal friends, who would just greet each other in passing. On the other hand, Kirito's fought and risked his life with Asuna and co. so the bonds that form are inevitably stronger.

He put her on the list mostly to faciliate conversations should he need her help. This is my speculation. Also off topic a little, tom youmre right, just watched steins gate, OkabeXKurisu, so touching especially ep 22. Hope movie shows more of their hijinks

Remember argo didnt give away kirito's identity as a beater. She only gave his identity away as a seller. Kirito even said if it came down to it, argo would give up cash then give up that information. Also that "favor" kirito asks of argo is something u ask a friend. "the 100,000 dollar question on the whiskers" Not a real information broker. |
