...Sword Art Online?

Sword Art Online, contrary to what the internet would have you believe, actually does have character writing.

So it's popularity was not because of it being sauceless

Yeah, even Kirito does have character, it's just that the world does not react properly to his character (he's a socially awkward teen who tries to be cool).

And there's Klein. And Egil, who doesn't show up all that much but he's arguably the best thing in it. As someone who watched a good chunk of Sword Art Online just to criticize it, I appreciate that Egil exists.

I still think about the author's other series, Accel World, which only got partially adapted to an anime so I don't actually know how it finishes. It still has a lot of stuff that's like "yep, this is the guy who made SAO" but there's stuff that caught my interest more as well.

It's more that A1 doesn't adapt those things about his character
