[178] By 2021, the series has 26 million copies in print. [179] The number of sales have reached 30 million in 2022. [180] Critical response[edit] Richard Eisenbeis of Kotaku hails Sword Art Online as the smartest series in recent years, praising its deep insight on the psychological aspects of virtual reality on the human psyche, its sociological views on creating a realistic economy and society in a
massively multiplayer
online game setting, and the writing staff's ability to juggle a wide variety of genres within the series. [181] Eisenbeis particularly noted how the romance between Kirito and Asuna is explored bringing "definition to exactly what love is like in a virtual world. "[181] However, at the time of this preliminary review, he had only watched the first 12 episodes of the series. [181] He has since gone on to review the second half of the series, lauding its excellent use of plot twists and praising its well-written and believable villain. However, he felt that some of the initial positive aspects of the series were lost in the second half, such as the focus on psychological repercussions and social interactions that could be realistically seen in an online game. Criticism was also levied towards the aspect of turning Asuna into a damsel in distress, stating that a female lead as strong as her was "reduced to nothing but the quest item the male lead is hunting for. " Eisenbeis closes his review of the series by stating in regards to the two halves, "Both, however, are enjoyable for what they are. "[182] Rebecca Silverman of Anime News Network has criticized the series as having pacing problems, logical gaps and "sloppy writing". [183] Theron Martin of the same website criticized the story as struggling "to achieve and maintain the level of gravitas that life-or-death danger should have", while calling it unwilling to commit to Kirito's "lone wolf" image.
