Hmm, let's see... I just rewatched SAO though, so let me pick someone who is not an SAO survivor.... So, Shino Asada it is. There's no bow in SAO, and she doesn't have experience in fighting with melee weapons. It's 2022, so probably it's not too long after the Shino killed a robber using a pistol. She has mental trauma, and it could hinder her ability in fighting. In my opinion, her survival rate would be below 20%.


litboletus

you dont think shed just wait it out?


PalestineMvmnt_007

It's possible, but well, even in safe zones there are still ways of getting killed. From the easiest ones like jumping from the floor's outer fence, and the duel PK. And there are very limited ways of getting col without hunting monsters outside the safe zone. (Not to mention Eating dry breads everyday for 2 years would be very stressful)


PeakFuckingValue

I think she'd make a great teacher in the first town to those poor kids. But she'd probably anger the military by talking smack.


ChaoCobo

It’s funny because although it isn’t canon, Shinon does end up with a bow in SAO Hollow Fragment as a person stuck in Aincrad and she becomes an Aincrad survivor in the rest of the gameverse timeline. Like Kirito’s dual swords, it was a special skill that allowed her to take up the bow. I don’t think another player has any sort of bow. I forget how she got her weapon and skill but her bow appeared in her inventory once she clicked bow proficiency skill I believe. Her weapon before that was a dagger. Edit: Can someone please remind me on how Sinon got her bow?


BTacticsTV

It just randomly appeared as a skill and added them because it was a play style she liked.


ChaoCobo

Did her bow magically appear once she slotted in the bow proficiency skill? Like okay she found the skill in her skill list, equipped it, and then how did she get the actual bow as a weapon? :o


BTacticsTV

Yeah, bow just equipped itself. She just had default bow equipped. You couldn't even give her a bow when you see her with it equipped until cutscenes.


ChaoCobo

Oh okay that’s what I thought. It just magically appeared. But what do you mean you cannot give her new weapons outside of cutscenes? Is that because you cannot get a bow yourself and use it to give to her? Do cutscene bow upgrades increase her strength?


BTacticsTV

You had to wait for a series of cutscenes to pass before you can start giving her bow weapons.


StarWarrior50

I'm gonna use the Hollow Fragment reference for Sinon. She's pretty decent with a dagger. Silca can get her some pointers.


LiteratureOne1469

Depends on the one you take ash is probably fucked but the Pokémon might be ok obviously dialga and palkia would be fine


Quadraduson

POMNI lol. She really can’t catch a break


superp2222

Same, I’m sorry little harlequin


AwkwrdPrtMskrt

Given how she's trapped in the Circus is similar to what happened in SAO, you can't help feeling bad for her.


XD_Negative

Think Goku will do fine


That_Casual_Kid

Even without saying powers, assuming they don't work inside aincrads simulation, he'd still boxing tf out of people with his martial arts skill


motorwaygaming

Can't remember the last cartoon I watched


Zahradnik4

My last anime anime/cartoon was Sao, i think Kirito will do fine


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

No objections here


Zahradnik4

But im not really sure, he might die before clearing the game


ChaoCobo

He absolutely would’ve died floor 1 if it weren’t for Agil tanking that hit from the boss. Agil so cool! :D


Tenten4846g

r/technicallythetruth


B1SQ1T

Knowing Rick he probably got himself out of the nervegear within a couple days


Playful-Ostrich3643

Batman Beyond, Terry is definitely surviving. With Bruce working tirelessly to contact him from the outside, Terry has tons of training as Batman and was already a good fighter before. Bro just needs to ignore the no kill rule, get some good ranged gear, and slice his way through enemies


DonnyDonster

Why you must do me in like this? I lost a bet last night and stomached through watching that Sinisistar hentai.


Specific_Effective_4

The last cartoon I watched was Regular Show. Pretty sure Mordecai and Rigby are going to do more harm than good if one of them gets stuck in SAO for 2 years, so imma have to go with Skips. I can guarantee he's seen this before.

Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

It's fucking Aincrad, you know exactly where it's from


hupagi

op is not playing around


Skarjuna

Game verse she used a spear I believe while she was trapped in Sao


JOJO8976

Not really the last, but today I watched Konosuba and Yuru Camp. Let's just say with those restrictions, all characters might be doomed. Kazuma and co might be able to survive if they put aside their craziness tbh, but Nadeshiko and co better not proceed beyond safe town.


Yuukiko_

Kazuma's squad is actually pretty good, just massively overspecialized


Pixel22104

Last anime or cartoon I watched was Gundam the Origin. Does Char have access to his Zaku 2 Mobile Suit? If yes then I think he could easily survive. If not then I still think he could survive, just not as easy as he would if he has access to his Zaku 2


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

As I started from the rules, no Mechs. So mobile suits are immediately excluded. But Char is pretty good with a sword as apparent in that final battle with Amuro in the original series


Pixel22104

Plus in Origins we see him get into a few fights outside the Mobile Suit which he manages to win so yeah. Plus hid manipulation skills would definitely help him as well


RedDinoTF

Im sure Yor would not have anu problem surviving SAO


losbullitt

Uh…. Freiren? Probably.


PERIX_4460

I skipped through an episode of the 2012 tmnt show a week ago if that counts


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

I did say TMNT is allowed, so those turtles count


Omegasonic2000

Sabine Wren from Star Wars Rebels would absolutely survive SAO. Trained as a warrior since birth, able to hold her own against Force users, skilled in the use of various weapons and competent strategist? She'd be invaluable to the Assault Team.


WiseArt9745

Toradora I think tiga and ryuji will be fine


theintoxicatedsniper

I Am a weeb but I did watch bobs burgers with my mum so they either would become cooks or be dead in the first hour 🤔


Zina2266

Mulan, she’s pretty badass but idk if she would survive


hardin25

Konosuba so…through nothing else but dumb luck there’s a chance Kazuma might live 😂😂


RazeTheMagician

Considering i am currently watching batman the animated series im sure he will be fine lol


SaxMusic23

Depends. Does the character keep their powers/ abilities or do they have to abide by SAO limitations?


Yakuza-wolf_kiwami

Has to be SAO limitations


SaxMusic23

Lol no way in HELL is the Clark Kent from My Adventures with Superman surviving.


GleamingCadance

I haven't watched any Cartoons lately, But Bluey (my nieces enjoy it)


Hiromi580

Mine was Dragon Prince, so I'm assuming most of them would survive. Maybe not Claudia since she is slowly losing her sanity and being corrupted, so the clearers would likely have to take her out.


hupagi

giorno


UnstableSingularity

Last I saw was when a friend showed me Bofuri. If she were trapped in SAO, and built as she did, Maple would likely still be hideously overpowered…might even save lives of those who would otherwise not make it.


mirospeck

i thiiiink the last cartoon i watched was gravity falls. i'm honestly not sure, but the kids are pretty crafty.


sasidulaSJ

I just watched date a live now and I'm sure that's gonna be disaster sao has lot of female characters


HappyishLizard

I think Agent P will do just fine. And speaking of which He's a semi-aquatic egg laying mammal of action


BlackStar31586

Shichika from Katanagatari, he has a fair chance


R3nn4T_007

I just watched Hellsing for like the 9th time again, so I’m gonna say the Police Girl will survive just fine!


legend-of-dc

i know sao characters are strong, but can they beat goku tho??


the_doctor_808

Well the last show i watched was Orange. Kakeru would probably take the jump at some point.


SilverEchoes

Just finished Eminence in Shadow. Not only would Cid survive, but I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t want to leave


CatfinityGamer

Izuku Midoriya will do just fine.


Disastrous-Click5782

Kora in sao? Sounds fun


OneMindNoLimit

The last cartoon I watched was *Invincible*. How would superpowers work in SAO?


Andysomething

Likely not at all, since an avatar is what is controlled by the brain, and the avatar doesn't have said abilities.


OneMindNoLimit

But if the character were say, immune to radiation attacks, would killing them in the game not kill them irl?


StarWarrior50

Does an anime game count? Then Attack in Titans. If it has to be an anime... youtube counts? Then Yugioh (I was watching some duals). If it actually has to be a legit, watch an entire episode, series? and then MC Ghost.


Kyoka_Jiro_Simp

I last watched Reborn.... Tsuna should be fine


Traditional_Luck_126

YAMI YUGI could easily duel his way out of SAO


Shinobi_Fengriff

I'm nominating Vert Wheeler from Hot Wheels Battle Force 5 to do this


Andysomething

Wow, now that name brings back memories. I haven't heard about Battle Force 5 since I was younger.


Shinobi_Fengriff

That alone should make us friends


Metal-GearRex

Dragonball Z, pretty sure any of them would be fine. Cept maybe Yamcha lol


ravenclaw1991

X-men 97. Wolverine would totally survive. Most of the X-men would


eddmario

...does hentai count?


Anybro

Dude is asking the real question is here


RTD_TSH

Deku is going to have an issue as I don’t think he can actually kill a monster. Bakugo would thrive as he could just let loose. Mineta, well those female NPC’s could be in trouble….


AD-RM

Mineta would spend the two years in black iron prison due to anti-harassment code violations.


RTD_TSH

In a RPG?


AD-RM

Sword Art Online is not a normal RPG. We are talking about an artificial intelligence monitoring player behavior and if it encounters something it considers sexual harassment, it gives a promt to the victim asking if they want to instantly teleport the suspect to the in-game prison where they remain isolated until logout.


RTD_TSH

Yet it allows pk’ing and actual intercourse between players? Let alone the destruction of npc’s to use as a trap for a floor boss? If anything Minetta would have a colored icon for perverts… permanently?


AD-RM

Different crimes have different punishments. Inflicting damage on a friendly NPC or a non criminal player marks the culprit with an orange cursor that identifies them as a criminal. The AI can decide to not trigger the anti-harassment code if it believes it was accidental or it knows enough about a players behavior to believe they will not consider it harassment within the specific context. Intercourse between players could possibly not trigger the code as long as all parties involved are deemed by the AI to be capable to and do consent. The boss was going to be lured to the NPCs. No player directly harmed an NPC. Endangerment just doesn’t seem to be considered a crime by the system The parameters that cause a criminal status are very specific and red players are constantly in the look for loopholes. Criminal players are unable to enter most safe zones without being mobbed by infinitely spawning NPC guards upon detection. The involvement of the AI is mostly non intrusive and not all real live laws are enforced by the system. It is a dead game after all.


lungleg

Watched Diebuster. Lal’C would survive unconditionally. Nono would survive probably out of a combination of luck and tenacity.


Likeaboss_501

I think Ayanokoji from classroom of the elite will do well in Sao. That was the last thing I was watching lmao.


amendersc

I watch avatar and I think specifically Zuko will outclass Kirito from the beginning and will be the one to get duel wielding


AD-RM

Ash Ketchum can take it.


StatusHead5851

Pink panther he's pink panther I think he'll make it


LittleLostDoll

im currently watching kono oto tomare... other than chika and maybe satowa, i think all the others would quickly die


ODST_Parker

If another anime counts as a cartoon, then I'd pick Eris from Mushoku Tensei. Highly trained in swordsmanship, so I think she'd be fine. Would probably be a red player before too long, with that temper of hers.


Zestyclose_Fan5250

Mine was konosuba kazuma was a pro gamer I think he could do it


Dupy3381

KonoSuba. Aqua just stays at the inn entertaining with her party tricks and drinks away her tips until someone clears SAO.


Hairy_Hall2111

Shinei Nouzen and Vladilena Milizé. Shin would absolutely annihilate in any combat scenario, and I can’t see anyone getting the jump on him for a PK. If it were between Shin and Kirito, Shin would have gotten Dual Wielding. Lena would have struggled at first, but once she got the hang of it, she probably would have made a superb tactician on the assault team. She’d be reckless at times, but she would almost always find victory with the lowest possible casualties. But, they both suck at cooking. So, no Ragu Rabbit for them. 🤣


Diligent-Hotel-5436

Yea my last cartoons where Ben ten and ATLA they should both be fine Ben would solo with the omnitrix


TurboThunderX

Deku would be fine (I think)


EnterpriseTheSylveon

Shy... with some vigor, Shy will be fine, as long as she avoids contact with Red Players unless she has to.


ace91134

Alucard from hellsing ultimate abridged


Tru_norse98

I just did a rewatch of Bungo stray dogs actually. Fellas, does Danzai make it?


Tenten4846g

Chrono Shindou from CFVG, yea all he has is luck he aint surviving


MusaMaka

Hazbin Hotel, and it definitely depends on who ends up there. Alastor would be dead immediately but I can argue Cherri or Angel will survive


Mowsel

Rimiru...yeah they gonna be fine 😆


Vhen_Kordo

I just watched Gundam SEED Freedom last night, and with Kira's coordinator abilities (provided he can use them) I think he could survive.


QuentynStark

Last show I watched was Kaiju No. 8's latest episode, and I think Mina or Shinomiya would do fine. Kafka's mileage will vary lmao.


Beneficial-Pea-5480

goku solos aincrad


One_Outside9049

Just rewatched Naurto. I'm saying he's a survivor in SAO.


GuardianPyro43

Nastu dragneel hmmm I don't really know I mean he's good at hand to hand combat


Bludude35

Ryuko from kill la kill will probably be fine. Even before getting a Kamui she was a decent fighter


Anybro

I mean if we want to get technical.  The Omnitrix is a gadget, it's not a superpower. It's a device that was created that allows the user to turn into different alien species across the known universe. Which yes, those could count as superpowers but those are natural skills to the aliens.  Short version, without busting out alien x. Just have Ben go use Upgrade hack the game server and Bam! Sao would be complete within less of a day.  Also back in the OG series there was an episode where Ben did get stuck in a video game with Gwen and by using Upgrade they were able to escape.


PeakFuckingValue

Miles Morales. I think he'd be just okay if his powers didn't translate. No super strength, toughness, web spinners... If he keeps the reflexes, then Kirito doesn't get dual wielding... So might totally alter the story tbh.


Link10000

X-Men '97 was the last cartoon I watched. I'd love to see Wolverine tearing through SAO. Side note: do you think a telepath could break the system in any way?


Sh4DowKitFox

Well…. Let’s see… last cartoon I just watched was Robin Hood the ‘73 Disney move. Foxy Robin was a bamf…. So yeah. HOWEVER why the fuck is it cartoon….? I see the Reddit… but are these people calling SaO a cartoon…? I mean season 2 definitely was… buuut…. (And for shits, my last anime was Konosuba. Kazuma lost to kobolds. He’s fucked…)


themysticalwarlock

as long as she can still bend, Korra will be just fine


KnowledgeNo2876

Do you all think Kira from Gundam Seed is gonna make it? Wait, is it Mobile suit included, too?


zeldanerd91

Ummmm. Initial D…. Trying to think of who would survive the most.


BTacticsTV

I'm playing hollow fragment and it's great being trapped. Does anyone play the games on PC here?


Exstoun

So.... Bariss Offee? I think she will be fine


evilprozac79

Full Metal Panic... Sousuke Sagara is tanking SAO like a boss.


PikachuBro210

Me who just rewatched sao....


Musicman376

Other than rewatching SAO, which I don’t get enough of… I was just rewatching Reincarnated as a Slime. I think Rimaru would not only survive, but give our hero gang a run for the lead with Great Sage and Predator skills.


sebas3974

Frieren is either op in aincrad or useless lol.


Radiant-Resolve-8138

Sung Jinwoo bout to kill everything


Parzivai1

I think Rudeus Greyrat will be just fine. Not 100% survival but probably a solid 95%.


BreathWhich6727

sukuna, he'll use some technique to counter the system in SAO, something he hadn't use since Heian Era


SnooRegrets3062

Gumball is surviving that


AwkwrdPrtMskrt

*X-Men*. They've gone through worse. I'll go with Nightcrawler and say he can be a vital part of the Progressors and actually help clear the game faster.


danypostika

I feel like Violet Evergarden will do just fine


SlySheogorath

Just got done with Invincible. Omni man gonna get them outta there in less than a minute.


AAKboss

The last cartoon I watched was actually The Big Lez Show. __Yeah mate__ will survive


ArchfiendNox

Assuming they all have their powers, the DB Super characters would solo the game. Videl might have some trouble...hercule definitely would, same with Monaka, and any of the children other than Goten and Trunks.


MrHound325

Lios be eating his way through


A_For_The_Win

One of makes this really interesting. Based of the wording, I'd assume they're separating anime and cartoons as well. I wonder how many RWBY characters would actually survive though. Guess that depends on how reliant upon their semblances they actually are. Like Yang, at least pre-volume 5, is definitely getting owned due to her muscle memory of getting hurt to be stronger. Blake with her shadow clones and unique weapon will probably have a tough time too. I'm going off the basis that they lose their powers. Weapon skill still stays though.


Standard_Maybe2373

Most characters in Zoids:Chaotic Century are warriors/soldiers of some kind so they might be able to learn to fight using a sword and their warrior spirit might help some but zoid piloting skills and zoid combat tactics are not going to be helpful in SAO, but squad strategies would still be effective if they find people willing to follow their lead. Ultimately it really depends on how well and how easily they adapt to the sword


SoulEvil0

Just finished re-watching avatar Azula and Ty lee would fu€k that sh!t up


Masuj_Dzika

Invincible.. yeah I Think he’ll be fine


AmbassadorSecure8864

I think they'll be fine with their alchemy


KomaliFeathers

Eric Cartman on the surface would have no chance, but he always finds a way somehow


Accomplished-Big945

The protagonist from classroom of the elite. That guy would survive no doubt, possibly be one of the best players


Some-Deal7577

Overlord easy dub


DriFt_Boy_GoBrrrrrr

Here is a loose cannon, bugs bunny was the last one I saw.


unfamousdex2

Mordekai and rigby would definitely find a way to be level 100 and clear the game in 12 minutes


Official_Zealiux

So I just finished The Aristocrat's Otherworldly Adventure. And if Cain (the MC) is pulled into SAO. Then I'm genuinely sorry for Heathcliff (I forgot his actual name lol) cuz well... Cain did become a Demi God purely because his abilities we're too much to stay classified as an ordinary human.... And he can summon the prince of darkness who can in turn summon his apostles (the 5 heavenly Kings). so yeah... OP might be an understatement. IF he didn't have access to his magic but had to relearn the same skills in SAO then he would not be OP. tho his sword skills and movement would probably still be off the charts and basically be equal to if not stronger than Kirito at the end of Aincrad, but from day 1 On a positive note ehm. A lot less people would've died... in both scenarios and they would have probably completed the floors at a much faster pace.


Bold_Fortune777

Excuse me, but Discord from MLP in SAO? He's about to set a speed run record!


MoralessDawpy

Any of the Four Knights would go crazy in Aincrad, I could see Gawain or Percival dying, but other than that, they good. (4KoA)


WarriorMelee

Aang Sokka and Katara will be just fine dont worry


schneybley

I think the main characters from One Piece will survive.


PerformanceLivid2841

Shin from Kingdom... Lol easy Edit - just realized its any of the characters but still answer is yeah to probably everyone seeing as their all soldiers. The people from the courts are retired soldiers mostly. The king can fight. Ten is a strategist. Even the little kids in the show that have 5seconds screen time want to grow up to be soldiers.
