While I also hope for more male characters to play major role, somehow I doubt that it's gonna happen. Kawahara said that Kirito is a guy he always wanted to be, so he will probably focus more on him - not that I am bothered, if only it will be with Asuna and Yui.

As for developement of the rest of the crew (mainly girls), it is already the tendency that their role is downgraded after their respective arc (Yes, Alice, it is also going happen to you!). So, I wouldn't count on any changes in this matter.

Regarding the usage of therm harem for SAO, I've been thinking about it for some time. In my opinion, you could say that it is both harem and not a harem at the some - I know, confusing. I mean SAO can give some harem vibe in terms of the facts that there is only one significant male character, plus, with the flow of time, more girls are starting to fall for him. On the other hand, this harem situation is quite ealry broken - Kirito starts serious relationship with Asuna, as well as, rest of the girls give up and are supportive to the couple; that is quite uncommon in todays harem series (if not contradicts it). Therefore, I personally use the therm (fake)harem.

Lastly, it makes me laugh hard, when people say that Alice, Sinon or anyone is love rival for Kirito. I mean there is not even the competition to begin with.

PS. After reading this post I noticed that slowly I am becoming Alice hater. Don't you think it's little unfair of me?
