Yutaka Izubichi was the designer apparently, he's worked in a ton stuff (including the noted effay show gundam wing). There's a lot of barracuda jackets in this show
Okay. Say what you want about SAO itself but as someone who loves to dress in all black Kirito's outfits are where it's at. Not sure if I could replicate that exact outfit in real life though I go for similar general vibes.

as much as i hate sao, in fact i'd argue it's really high up there as one of the worst anime of all time, completely overrated garbage, i do actually agree with you! the outfits in the series were actually kind of cool despite the story and characters being terrible

The light novels are actually kind of good. It's the anime that sucks ass. The anime cut out a lot of important character development and inner monologue, therefore making the characters all completely one-dimensional. Not to mention all the fan service they added that wasn't in the original, as well as trying to give Kirito a harem where in the novel Asuna was the only one who ever truly liked him

hoooooly shit. you're not exaggerating. can't unsee
seems to more or less be a common them with anime though. cool design but has one weird detail that ruins it all
>>18523806
HA! so true though. that's the ironic part. i think that i even read somewhere that the creator of sao thought that fidget spinners looked "strangely familiar" or something like that, though i could be wrong

Garouden mentioned!! Itagakiβs fashion sense is amazing, not in the sense that itβs great, but in a bewildering sense. His characters consistently dress in their own styles, but its clearly stuff only he finds cool and his cool is still stuck in the 90s-2000s.
>>18522380 SAO is really solid anime fantasy fashion. Taking the vibe (strappy streetwear goth) and then METICULOUSLY AVOIDING COSPLAY, you can make an all black alt fit that will maintain the energy. Itβs why gothninja took off so hard. Folks are always striving to find that balance between fantasy looks and clothes that look authentic to a real world environment.

Now, I say, I ain't from Poland nor am I wearin' any skinny jeans, son! Itβs the best flick I ever laid my eyeballs on, and I reckon them clothes sure do look sharp, I tell ya!
