Not exactly sure how this is a message instead of a question...

Anyway, the "main heroine" thing kinda went out the window after Aincrad. She played a small role in Fairy Dance and even less of a role in Phantom Bullet, so to complain about her not being a major character in Alicization alone seems a bit odd. Sure she was the protagonist of Mother's Rosario, but that was to give her the character development she never got in Aincrad when the deuteragonists for the later arcs were full of development. Not sure why Asuna's lesser role is only an issue now.

In any case, she doesn't play a huge role to start off but later on she becomes very important. I won't say any more due to spoilers though.
