The difference between the two are where SAO focuses on fantasy and romance while LMS focus on action and adventure.
I used to think Kirito is amazing and powerful but compared to the protagonist of LMS (named Weed) Kirito seems lacking to me now.

The battle scenes of SAO are also disappointing to me now compare to LMS where it always result in all out war and spans in multiple chapter. In Sao battle scenes are: Kirito's party versus boss monster, Kirito vs 1 strong opponent or Kiroto vs multiple weak opponent, while in LMS: Weed vs multiple strong boss monters(higher level than him), his opponents are always way stronger than him but he uses cunning, strategy and real life martial arts(swordmanship) experience to overcome them in the end. The are also war scenarios in LMS like: Weed+Paladins vs Clan of Vampires, Weed+Orc+Dark Elves vs Undead Legion and my favorite: Weed vs King Hydra vs Black Dragon vs Master Necromaster+Undead Legion vs Evil High Priest+Doom Knights.

To those who already knows LMS lets have a discussion comparing both LN, which do you think is better?
To those who haven't read LMS yet I recommend it(while waiting for new SAO updates on translations) since all seems to like SAO here. Don't be put off by the title like I was at first, if I pick another title for this LN then it will be "The God of War, Weed"(which is what people call him in-game).
Caution for those who just starting to read or haven't read SAO: After reading LMS you won't be satisfied with SAO anymore so read all the translated SAO LN first before reading LMS.
