well to start the first 12 or so episodes of SAO were good until Alfhiem online got thrown into the mix, at first I thought it was a cool concept but then it got really retarded, first Kirito's cousin has a sexual attraction to him which is fucking weird and second of all they made Asuna (one of the strongest players in SAO) a helpless girl needing Kirino to save her, the show was nothing more then a harem and a dumb romance, Btooom on the other hand DID include a bit of romance but only with ONE GIRL AND ONE BOY! the show focused more on survival and team work unlike SAO that focused more on how many girls will fall for Kirito. I rest my case.

The first 12 episodes were badly paced. It begins promising but then after the first boss it derails and goes downhill all the way to the bottom. Nothing makes sense. Everything is meaningless and random. And no attachment to the characters are given.
Btoom
The show does focus more on team work which I will admit I liked. It's not like Battle Royale or The Hunger Games where there's only one winner. It's a nice take on it. But it doesn't make up for the other crap. And the the one girl and one boy isn't anything special. It's the same with SAO and every other none harem show. What makes Btoom special is the much bigger age gap, the main heroine in Btoom is like 15 while the creepy NEET is like 23 years old. And then suddenly she becomes dere for his dick. It makes no sense. And don't give me the 'power of love' bullshit, we both know it's just poor writing.
To return to the topic: I don't think Btoom is underrated because I didn't like the character design, they forced drama on you and I'm not fond of video game anime. Accel World, SAO, Log Horizon and Btoom have all been disappointments. And I think they all suck.
