![]() They say that these events diminish her qualities as a strong female character. It turns out that Asuna was kidnapped by a man who wants to marry her he locks her in a giant bird cage, unable to escape. Because she was captured, many people believe that the creators made Asuna into a typical damsel in distress. Kirito goes into another game called Alfheim Online to save her. After Sword Art Online is cleared, Asuna is unable to wake up while attached to her NerveGear, and stays trapped in the virtual world. The second half of the first season is when people begin to look at Asuna differently. In the Aincrad arc, she is an amazing representation of a powerful female character. She could defeat you easily in battle, but also lay waste to you using her words and opinions. Asuna was strong physically and mentally. She was second in command of a major guild, and fearlessly fought on the battle field, despite the possibility of death. Many fans, myself included, were drawn in by her strong leadership skills. Sword Art Online 1 Aincard AsunaĪsuna is first introduced in the very beginning of the series. In this post, I want to discuss my reasons for liking Asuna, why some people dislike her, and how Ordinal Scale (without revealing too many spoilers) helped to represent her in a positive light. ![]() In my opinion, it did just that, and I couldn’t be happier. I was hoping that her actions in the movie would help redeem her reputation. However, just as the show accumulated haters, so did Asuna. I am always joking that Asuna is my ultimate waifu (which she is), but the truth is that I really respect her as a strong female character. ![]() In particular, I was very curious about how they were going to portray Asuna. It’s almost like admitting SAO is good is a taboo.īefore watching Ordinal Scale, my hope for the movie was that it do well and help banish some of the disdain for the series. Although I admit the show isn’t perfect, people’s extreme hate and disdain for the show upsets me. Over the years, however, the hate bandwagon for the anime has grown immensely. I have personally liked this series since its premiere, as did many other fans. For many reasons, the anime community is divided in half when it comes to this show: fans either believe that it is a great series, or a terrible one. With the Ordinal Scale movie debut in Japan, North America, and other countries all over the world, Sword Art Online has been receiving all kinds of attention. ![]()
