I've heard really bad things about people trying to use 128gb SD cards on the 3DS. are you sure it's not fake?
Can't speak for everyone. But my 128 GB micro SD card has never given me an issue, though I know I bought a real 128GB micro SD card and not some fake claiming to have that much data as you often see being sold online, as I bought mine new at a Best Buy (and its about 120GB full at this point too). Of course A9LH also helps in that I never have to worry about my boot rate anymore, as it launches every time, but even before A9LH, I had a great boot rate (until I switched from RXtools to CakesFW, for some reason my bootrate decreased quite significantly when I made that change, and was the main catalyst for me making the move to both A9LH and AuReiNAND).

im torn because i love my boot animation but want faster boot times lol
I'm with ya, but ultimately, the animation wins out for me, because its like 2 extra seconds long, and I still know it's going to boot every time, so I can take the slight increase in wait if it means my N3DS looks all the more cooler. The full boot including animation is probably about 12 seconds with my 128GB sd card. I'll take that over my 20 to 30 second menuhax boot that didn't always work at that, any day.
