I gave Sword Art Online II far too many chances. The first 14 episodes of SAO are pretty good, not great, but solid high budget fantasy fare. There was a sense of adventure, an interesting emerging world and community, and an OP hero. The second arc had a rape cage and it was down hill from there. GGO was boring garbage where nothing happened and people talked in caves forever, then when that ended they went back to the lame fairy world where you can't actually die and did some bullshit I don't care about. By allowing characters to log out and not die, you remove whatever 'realism' the characters felt towards the virtual world and remove all stakes and gently caress who cares Tokyo Ghoul just got progressively less and less interesting as characters showed little development, and nothing interesting was done with the idea. A counterpoint to this would be the ongoing Parasyte - which continually finds new and interesting angles to play on its premise. The ghoul's backgrounds were like a Twilight fan's idea of mysterious - moody behavior but no actual information or story.
