Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| This show went down hill from the get go. The only good parts are with asuna |
 |
| It was adapted well enough although I was really looking forward to Asuna and Kirito's lunch with _______________. Hopefully the second half also gets adapted well! Oh and.. my waifu is back! |
| Finally a decent episode looking forward to how they finish off the mystery |

I love seeing Asuna sleep like in the following,  Cause she innocent and MOE. Enough said! I was gonna post this pic.. She is soooo cute in this one |

| I'm really not liking how they crop stories to fit into 1-2 episodes... :/ Kind of disappointing to those that have read the novels. |
 |
| Wow this episode was good. |

| Oh wow, so Doujins DO become canon, they incorporated parts of the Materia Edition 1: The Progressers. So even fanfics the author writes CAN become canon hahahahaha. But I am truly happy that they did this adaptation really well. Has most of the Mystery and details in it. :3 |

Believe me, disappointing to ppl who haven't read them as well. This episode just felt rushed kinda and tried to force feelings on me again. The reactions and stuff were mehhh at most and and I just felt bored and kinda lol at how ooc were the reactions. The only interesting thing was the end when she was atked and died. The only interesting thing rly. Geez, I rly can't wait till the 7th epi when the plot is supposed to pick up and have a decent story for once. |

Plot isn't going to pick up until episode 8 at the earliest. |

| I must be getting way too paranoid from plot twists. I was specting the girl to be the murderer until she fell from the window |
| English its not my first language, pls Grammar Nazis spare me ._. |
| That was fucking horrible, obvious as hell and just lame. And it feels way to rushed. |
 |
| DAT ASS-SERVICE good ep though, looking forward to the development |

ILove11 said: WTF? Since when Kirito isn't really famous as the Black Swordman and all this stuff? Just because one person doesn't know him, it doesn't mean that he's not famous. |
| Hmm...a mystery killer. Now where I remember this part? |

SilentTruth said: Hmm...a mystery killer. Now where I remember this part? detective conan ? |
| "You must be joking" -Gorobei |
| Well, I mean. This is the best I could ask for. At least they did it with TWO episodes and not fucking forced this arc in only 1 episode. Can't even imagine that. Pretty good. + we get too see Asuna x Kirito. Asuna!! :D |
ILove11 said: WTF? Since when Kirito isn't really famous as the Black Swordman and all this stuff? It was mentioned in the Novels that middle-floor mostly hear rumors about "The Black Swordsman" only the Frontliners and other solo peepz know what he looks like. Black IS a very common color after all |
| Wow, they didn't try to fit it into one episode this time..... I'm surprised. It still felt rushed though. At least Asuna was really cute this episode. And for some reason, the guild name "Golden Apple" always reminds me of Touhou. Maybe I've been playing too much games.... Good episode nonetheless, though I have to admit this is one of the weaker SS, IMO. |

| So much for the whole 3rd option is impossible, based off that episode alone things look fishy. |
| The best episode besides the first. Not too rushed and it actually explored the world. I'm surprised. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| I only read until volume 7 so I didn't read the short story for this. That being said, I knew ever since she was introduced that either she was the murderer or she would be killed. It was obvious she wouldn't survive. IDK... I might drop this... It already fulfilled its job for me anyway. Anime's are made so the original format gets more publicity. In this case, the SAO anime was made so that more people would read the light novels. (For the most part anyway). After seeing the first episode, I started reading the Light Novels. Now I'm just meh. The episodes are really boring. Nothing happens in them and an anime of this type doesnt do well being episodic. It needs a plot that goes through more then one episode. This episode started it... but IDK... I think they made a bad decision when they decided to make it all chronological. The short stories aren't part of the main novel for a reason. They have nothing to do with the major plot. This is filler. They should get to the important stuff and pace it better. That being said, the art is really nice.... and the special effects are too... but that won't keep me around. The first episode was very promising- but the rest of the series is just not working. They didn't translate it into anime properly. They made it way too boring and slowed the pace way too much. |
| 7th episode still a random event.. every episode is a huge time lapse.. i cant see any plot of the story here.. |
 |
| Omg Asuna finally appeared again |
| There are just 2 words to describe this episode: Dat asses. But srls, why did they included those ass shots? That fanservice was really out of place. Well, I didn't really like or dislike this episode. Well, but I still kind of curious what happens next, so... 5/5. (And as I said last week, I'm kind of sick of these extra stories.) |
| Asuna back in action <3 Yet more players died :'( And damn I know that girl gonna die if she stand near window like that :/ Time to solve murder and get suspect... in next episode. 5/5 |

_fullm00n said: I was talking about that with a friend but the general consensus is Herp Derp the series costs a lot so we gonna shove some asses around to make more money somehow. Pretty much the bolded. I am not surprised of that but I would prefer they find better ways to do it. The easy way is not always the best for all series TBH.There are just 2 words to describe this episode: Dat asses. But srls, why did they included those ass shots? That fanservice was really out of place. |
| This is a ridiculously mighty and powerful dagger - kills a player with one stroke. |

| finally watched it, they animated the start of this story well, they added in all the clues and mystery as well as explaining asuna and kirito's relationship on the frontlines, i just loved that scene where asuna caught kirito napping under a tree, it was hilarious watching that whole scene animated the only thing which could have been improved would probably be to actually have kirito pierce himself like he did in the LN but i guess that scene worked too with asuna scolding him for being reckless, also i loved the "my friends a merchant but is busy at this time" its nice foreshadowing to episode 7 "warmth of the heart" im not gonna say anything about that whole scene at the end, people may criticize how it seems forced but it all comes together in the next ep also i would like to remind all the Light Novel readers to keep hush hush about what happens next, no one likes a spoiler, especially when its really good |

GDL-URAHARA said: This is a ridiculously mighty and powerful dagger - kills a player with one stroke. LOL same I thought that must be a powerful ass dagger too, or maybe the fall helped? But it's sad to see her go though she had a great ass Asuna became a little stuck up upon joining that guild huh? Well not that much seeing as they still got along. Anyways, I do love me some mystery |
 |
| Kirito and Asuna are an interesting pair and their scenes together were nice; however... the mystery really did not pique my curiosity. I mean, I found myself asking why I should care about the Golden Apple guild just because someone went all Gollum on their leader's ass because "their precious" ring was going to be sold. |

That was one of the most important scene for their relationship's development. Im so glad even the speech is the same. |

Believe me Kirito and Asuna don't really care about the Golden Apple guild that much either, they are not doing this because of them. They are only really looking into it to see how people are getting killed in safe areas, where pk or death should be impossible. |
