Dragon Shit!

This episode is somewhat similar to episode 4 where Kirito accompanies a girl for something...

But I liked what Liz said about finding something real in the SAO world...

I kinda root for her and Kirito... xD

Somewhat repetitive in plot but I love the dialogues...

4/5

This show is even better the second time through. This dub is great. I liked Asuna's VA as Lucy in Fairy Tail, but I was bit worried she wouldn't be a good fit for Asuna. I was wrong. She is fantastic. Kirito's VA keeps getting better with each episode. In the first couple of episodes he seemed a bit off/uncomfortable in the role, but he is in full stride now and is really doing a great job.

WHY DID HE CHOSE ASSSUNA!?! Liz was SO MUCH BETTER! after rewatching the dub(which i couldnt finish because it stressed me out that this was her only episode) i realized. this show is terrible, y? because look how its managed, these stupid ass time skips. which i could get past if, oh you know? they didnt just bring in a super awesome character(not once, but 3 TIMES) and give her 1 freaking episode! thats it! SMH. <3 Liz

Lisbeth was a nice girl, I was kinda hoping her and Kirito might get together but then Asuna showed up again. Not that I don't like her and Kirito.

So, running up the wall didn't work lol.

But then they were free, free fallin' ... and for her falling in love lol.

IMO, this episode sucked giant donkey balls. Yet another example of every useless chick in the universe falling for Kirito. Episodes 5/6 kicked ass.

Liz is so great! So far I definitely prefer her to Asuna who, to me, isn't anything but the usual "cute yet cool" female heroine. Shame she probably won't be in it again.

Was there a little Macross homage with that "seizing the girls hand midair" thing?

Anyway, good episode and I liked Liz as a character. ONly thing is, I'm not sure she's coming back at any point?

I'm rewatching.

The world building is still probably very silly and the characters are still simple, but I'm somehow still engaged to this show. Compared to the direction the show takes in the second half, I think I'm getting a sense of why this flawed story and simple characters manage to click.

Lol, they were able to create a romance and crush it in less than 20 minutes.

But more seriously, it was a good episode.

That new character, Liz, was funny and cute. She just can't rivalize with Asuna.

I like how he just go ''We can try running on the wall'' like if it was a normal thing to do xD

Meh, another side story that I wasn't fond of on my first watch but didn't mind this time around. Lizbeth is a nice character and it's a shame the newly budding romance was extinguished so soon. I like how she is trying to find something in that virtual game to consider real and hold onto. Honestly Kirito x Liz wouldn't have been a bad match at all.

The Dragon had a cool design, but poorly executed with the 3D. And poor Lis, Asuna quickly bitchslapped her away from her man. With a smile no less.

Aw, Lisbeth is so tsundere! (^_^) I had some vibes but then she found out. (T_T)
Lol, Kirito's Elucidator broke Lisbeth's best sword.

Kirito needed another sword, so he had to fight a dragon.
He didn't kill the dragon, but he still got the dragon's "drop".
And thus the Dark Repulser was made with the warmth of a heart!

Lame. Liz is better than Asuna. This anime should have been a harem, would have been a better suit than a normal romance with 1 girl 1 guy relationship.

So glad it's not this. Kirito's steadfast relationship with Asuna is what makes the show, imho. I also think that Asuna complements Kirito far better than Liz could've/would've.

Another well done episode, I liked Liz but when Kirito was hitting on her and holding her hand I was like "wtf man what about Asuna" but I suppose that's resolved for now! The action was good too and I really like the soundtrack - there's one specific song in this episode (I think it's shown up before too) that reminds me a lot of Clannad. I think it played when they were going to sleep in the dragon's cave. Not that I'm complaining! I loved Clannad's music.

Kirito and Asuna were obviously a thing from the get-go, so Liz's heartbreak was inevitable. Still, Liz seems like a really genuine character and I think her short screen time is a good thing. Kirito's strength being a backdrop is annoying though. The show could at least afford to spend time showing how Kirito is leveling up. Instead of gaining levels, the show is more interested in filling the harem.

Well Lisbeth seems to be a really nice character. When she and Kirito were in the cave, I thought it was a nice conversation.

Though I will say that this episode is really good (and I really like the OP theme a lot).

Yay, I've found Kirino's twin in other anime! Added Rika Shinozaki\Lisbeth to my favs list, couldn't find her in characters list as Lisbeth, apparently that's her in game nickname. Love at first sight <3
The best episode so far, loved colouring and drawing style, it feels very comfortable at her shop :3
Loved Kirito x Rika, so intense and romantic, one of the best romatic episodes I've ever seen in anime, would prefer over Kirito x Asuna, however there is no competition yet, at least I haven't seen any vibes between Kirito and Asuna, they don't date, right? So Lis is kinda overthinking it, it's not too late for her to join harem. Anyway poor Rika, I feel sorry for her :(
