| Kirito you heart breaker. |
| 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! |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| Kirito gets a girl. Then he drops her. -,- lol |
| 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. |
HandsomeMan said: 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. |

Yeah, now that I'm at episode 22 I agree. Although now I like Suguha more lol |
| Kirito never finished off that dragon... Kirito-harem +1 Nice earrings, Asuna! That's my best sword... snap... not anymore... |
  |
| 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. |
| Hmph still needs more action and how can she fall in love so fast with him? Fells like Twilight now instead of Lord of the Rings :/ |
| Awww i felt bad for Lis and I hope this anime doesnt turn out to be a harem -.- |
| Lisbeth is love Lisbeth is life. This is my conclusion to the entire series. |
Minori Kushieda Forever <3 |
| 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). |
| I do like Lisbeth in this episode and it is nice to see a woman being a blacksmith and I didn't feel like this episode was filler and it did have a point. |
| Poor Liz. :( Stupid Kirito. |
| Omne Solum Forti Patria |
| 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 :( |

He saved her life, you know. And that is still not enough of a reason to fall in love with someoneThe novel does a better job in explaining why she fell for him though. And it's rather touching. I got emotional when I read it. I've also read itAnd as far as I can remember I didn't get emotional |

villax said: Okay questio. Do you remember the picture that Liz looks at the beginning of the ep?did she have her family in sao an they died?caus they look like they have armor from the first few levels. That is a good question but the novel doesn't mention anything about it. It's just something the anime added in, I think.... |
|
| DAMN so many bad comment on the dragon, Fucking no fantasy in your head! You draw then a damn crystal Dragon!! I thought i look epic, for a dragon in the nature of snow and crystal!! sure i want to see some little more fighting, and little character development but i will come in time i hope, Like shiiiiiiii we are still at ep7 stop complain!! Have heard enough bad shit out this anime an i so far really am hooked on SAO really enjoying watching it! |
| cause MAL is doing there job for once. |
| I would say that it is quite understandable for characters to want to be with Kirito....after all, it's important not to forget that everyone is stuck in this artificial world with dangers lurking everywhere, not just from the virtual environment itself but from other hostile and selfish players. You can't seem to trust anyone, which is why Kirito clearly stands out. Even though he is a solo player, and has benefitted from playing the Beta, he remains selfless and puts others first. That being said I guess this shouldn't necessarily translate to characters having to have to fall for him, especially over the course of a single episode. I would have preferred it if this episode continued on, so that the characters could get to know each other a bit more, especially since they managed to get out of the mess they were in rather quickly. |

I'm still at where they are calling him a beater. I'm reading sword art online -progressiveThat is a good question but the novel doesn't mention anything about it. It's just something the anime added in, I think.... Yes, this episode is adapted from the second novel of Aincrad, which was released before Progressive. |

| Lisbeth, got friend-zoned.. |
| Very boring episode. This looks like a romance show in a game, rather than a game with some romance. Or maybe a harem instead of romance. |
| Poor Lizbeth :( I can feel with her |
 |
| After rewatching, man...too bad for Lisbeth. Although, I definitely agree that Lisbeth falling in love with Kirito is a little forced. They should have tried to develop it a little better. Lol this episode totally dropped the hints that Asuna likes Kirito. |
| Why do the girls in this show fall in love with him so easily? Man, this is retarded. |

| Although this episode is only 3 characters like Kirito, Asuna and Lisbeth, I most liked is Liz and Kirito sleeping lmao. This is warm and amazing feel. I loved this episode. 5/5 11/10 scores |
| Damn!!!.. This anime is just an animation and it's in virtual game. They show us some love problems in their world which is the same at ours and I could really relate to it |
 |
I had no problem with Lisbeth as a chara until it's not awful, but pointless. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Ahaha, Kirito you're a fucking idiot. What did you expect to happen when you smashed that brittle sword against one that is forged better? Of course it's going to break, that's swordsmithing 101! Reki Kawahara can't keep track of what he wants to make of Kirito, sometimes he writes Kirito as a lone wolf, and this time he's back to a Kirito consumed by guilt over letting other people die. To be honest I prefer the former since the current episode Kirito is absurdly condescending towards Liz. She knows about the "crappy CGI dragon" quest and she completed it, she didn't have to hide while Kirito did all the job, but I guess that Kirito is written to be a Mary Sue that defeats any enemy effortlessly and has no substantial flaws. |
| Ok, now it's factual that Kirito hasn't a Dragon Slayer from Berserk, but he does possess the Pussy Slayer that's probably his dick, and it attracts all sort of females who fell in love for him. He's also their lord and savior. So, since the producers decided to spend one episode where the protagonist gets a sword, why not to add another girl and a CG dragon? I don't know know if I'm demanding too much from a self-insertive LN adaptation or if said show is kidding me. Hard to tell at this point. 3/5 |
| This episode was badly written. I mean, most of it was obvious and it was easy to predict every dialogue. I really hope this anime get better because for now, it's really not that good. |
| Lisbeth is cute. She needs more screentime. Not good as the last two episodes, but it was enjoyable. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| This show is making it hard to choose the best girl, the episode started with me looking at Lis like just another generic crush and then I actually, for a moment wanted her to win Kirito over. |
| lis is SO cute i love her and her freckles. the VA too i really like it's very natural, she doesnt have that generic overly high-pitchy nasal kind of typical voice, it really adds to her character as well also how cool she's a blacksmith. i like her already! the scene where they were flung up into the sky was lovely! and that hug! so cuteeee |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| Kirito: Breaks sword without payment. Lisabeth: "Let's go to a dragon den to potentially kill ourselves to make a better sword for you". later Both: Almost dies........ Am I stupid or is the writing INSANE? Shouldn't everyone be worried at least a little because you know...Death. Why would she suggest this, to begin with, he's the one who rudely broke her sword without payment, she should have just asked for payment. Why would she risk her life for a sword for some dude she just met. Anyway, 10 minutes later, Lisabeth: "Kirito, I love you". Me: Bruhhhhhh........... At this point, this show is harem first story later. I have no idea how she fell in love with him, yes he saved her but why would he risk his life, he doesn't know her, all he knows is her name is Lisabeth and she is a smith. With Sachi[which I also found stupid] they knew each other for a few months, with Lisabeth it was literally a few hours. Also apparently Kirito's hand is warm......... If that was smithing then I am an astronaut. Then the obvious cliche[cliches are fine btw], "Oh no, he's talking to another girl, he is obviously married". In defence of the show, they are teenagers so I can let that go. This episode was a disaster just like previous episodes, I couldn't care less about the CG dragon. So, now that all the girls are assembled, let the ecchi and ass shots begin so that I can self insert myself into Kirito and have a good time. Ps. Yolko is still the best character, she was the only one capable of withstanding Kirito's d*ck and had her own thing she had to do[which was also stupid]. Also that sweet ass shot, I am truly missing it right now. Also when Kirito said "I rather die with someone than watching them die", I died laughing because Previous episode Yolko dies and he does jack shit. |
