Ever since I was a kid, video games was a way for me to escape my life. No need to pity me I'm perfectly fine now but for a long time, I was my only friend and only competition. It wasn't until the hmm...6th...8th grade did I finnaly find I wasn't alone. Eventually I found people who liked the same things I did even though there were a little obscure. They became my family...my SAO family.
I watched SAO during BoyScout camp on a friend laptop and found that I was really similar to kirito. I take friends to heart but always screw things up thus why it took so long for me to finnally socialize. SAO means to me...family
Just this week I finally found out how lucky I was. My gf of a full year finnally watched SAO for the first time and called me with tears. I of course was sentimental and helped how I could. But she wasn't sad. Instead she was happy to see us in similar roles as Kirito and Asuna, and also we lie down and talk about doing is exactly what the SAO couple eventually does. I watched the whole series over again after hearing their through and I called he back...with the same exact tears in my eyes.
SAO probably means to you a lot less than what it does to me but this anime truly changed my life.
Live on

It hurts to see how long ago this was posted and the lack of replies. Dude that is awesome. Going trough life alone is hard, I can vogue for that but that one little thing, the one thing that picks you up and gets you going is what keeps you strong. Our founder (a personal friend of mine) watched SAO and it was one of those things that he couldn't stop watching. Not only did he love it but afterwards he seemed more confidant with himself. Good on you Budd, this is what I like to see. We aren't just some clan, we are a family. ~Red
