He is making money and having fun at the same time, how is that trying to throw your life away? If anything that is like living your life to the fullest. He makes millions of cash by having fun, he would of been on the streets if he didn't gamble, with the shitty pay hes getting from his shitty job. Its hardcore gambling, not suicide. Have you even seen Akagi btw?
I have not seen it, but it's pretty obvious that it's not about the money. And his fun comes from teetering on the edge of death. That's being suicidal. Look, you can dislike SAO all you want, but don't be so obviously biased. If you don't like it, don't want it. And if you don't watch it, don't spam up the topic.
I'm not trying to be sexist, have you seen the male to female ratio in MMO Highscores, because I have and its the reason that I specified her gender. I bet you that you'd be lucky to get 5% female in the top 100. For a female to be the second best player after the all almighty protagonist when shes playing a game for the "first" time in her life, you know its not possible. Only way for her to do it is that shes created to be perfect, and she was.
Yes, you are trying to be sexist. There's literally zero reason to specify her gender outside of that. You're attempting to make it sound like it isn't sexist by adding that it's her first time playing an MMO, which would be a valid argument in and of itself. However, how many MMOs have you played or know of that are like this? Last I checked, none are life or death games, none require you to actually move about, and none test you mentally like this. The playing field essentially levels out, so yes, it's very much possible for "a girl" to be one of the best players.
Also, Heathcliff is better than she is.
There are probably 2 definitions of fillers for me.
1. Original scenes/episodes that are not found in the original source.
2. Episodes that serve no purpose whatsoever.
I'm following the second definition for SAO, all those episode did was introduce characters that has no relevance to the plot other than harem members later on. And the fishing part was filler no matter how you see it, it literally served no purpose.
Except those episodes did all serve a purpose. They showed why Kirito was so reluctant to join a guild, how dangerous anti-crystal zones could be, how PvP was handled, backstory on Kirito's weapons, etc. All stuff that's been called back to and referenced during the main story arc episodes that came later. And even if the characters haven't done much since their respective episodes, that doesn't mean that they never will. So really, you need to get over yourself.
