I am so with you on that. I was so fucking excited because the first few episodes really made me think it was going to be an awesome anime meets WoW sorta thing... And then Assuna (Yes, I spelled it that way on purpose) shows up and turns the anime into a godamn romantic comedy...thing. The fairies made it even worse. I haven't seen the new season because of the horrible things my friend who HAS been watching it tells me. Like the fact Kirito looks like a woman.
