There was potential there (in SAO), but it kept dropping swords, point down, on its feet.

The first arc was sort of tolerable, but that was the series' already seriously flawed high point. What came after that simply isn't worth viewing unless you're looking for a very strong "don't" example or want to understand why it is so unpopular.
