The ending really caught me off guard. I thought it was going to be like typical SAO, but nope. M pulled out a pistol to shoot LLEEN and she dodged it. Furthermore, when she was thinking of shooting him, he cried and begged for her not to shoot him. Now I am extremely curious why he was going to shoot her. Also it was pretty funny when she was telling the enemy sorry before she shot him. Can't wait for the next episode!

Best thing this episode was Llenn's expression during the after credits.

Still not liking the party size rules.

Great episode. M is really skilled, especially with that sniper.
Wonder what was written in that letter, because probably because of that he had to shot her.
That ending...wtf xD

I bet the author of this LN never played MP game in his life, because the "last team" was not a team, but a fucking army LOL

Also the mental breakdown of M at the end is probably safe bet that he is in real life another light novel loser character ... what a shame.

He’s probably the 50 year old that writes gun novels that they talked about.

Okay.. LLENN laying into that guy to "finish him off" was a good 5 seconds too long. Strange

They have more team mates [than] them, its a disadvantage. But it doesn't mean they can't win, in which they did.

In COD, I always saw this as an advantage, as you have more targets. Of course, you'd lose even if you got the most kills since your team would be wiped out completely. GGO obviously doesn't keep score, considering its always been last man standing. Suddenly wondering how many games have this set up... Realizes most fighting games don't have to keep score to determine a winner.

i kinda wonder what was the point of that betrayal?? i mean it is still team battle, plus many people saw his betrayal. If he wanted to be single winner, everybody would still see his back stabbing

Intense episode. Very strategic. This reminds me of PUBG xD. When I have been watching SAO, GGO reminded me of CoD. That ending, tho. I think M in real life is a nerd.

Squat jam continues, first they encounter Generic villain team, who M get rid off by turning himself into tank, didn't see that comming, I though he was carrying big suitcase in which Pinky LEN can hide into thanks to her size. You know, one they destroyed Pro's with. And then brief look on last enemy, some Juggernaut team with plottwist cliffhanger at the end.

Also funny, they almost end up dead by Juggernaut team in same situation that got Rambo team killed at the start.

Direct orders from Pito I assume? Good progression from the first episode and well I do wonder why he did it though! Let's see what's next.

Wow, i didn't expect this anime to go talking about reticles the way i do... I have a long history of disabling reticles when i can... at least in games that don't fuck up the wielding angle of the guns for sake of showing them off.

100% for sure i'd be playing without the stupid circle and bullet lines.

M stands for Mapper My ass. It's clear M stands for Masochist.

M is a real pro at using weapons in general. Shooting fast moving targets using pure aiming skills alone is impressive! What's not impressive is that they didn't at least take a cover when they were checking the scan. Not a great thing to do with my experience in various FPS games.

Whoa! LLENN got betrayed for some reason! But she handled that situation well. M's reaction, in the end, was uncharacteristically funny.

What the hell did that letter say?!?!
Also, I love the gunplay in this season! And M's ability to read a weapon from the sound of its shots is sick!

Jeez LLEENN, dont you think the guy was dead after your first spray down O_O ?

Also yes, most likely, we know nothing about Pito besides M being her friend.

Also what the hell lol, M went full on sobbing after being overpowered by LLEENN

M stands for Mapper My ass. It's clear M stands for Masochist.

Finally.
Had to read 4 whole pages of comments before seeing someone with a brain, lol.
Quite clear since the encounter episodes.
Reserved, formal, a little awkward, big ass shield, afraid of "being killed RL" if he does something, changing the topic when she guessed the "M" wrong.

I guess the MAL comment section is a little too innocent to know what an M is...

"You cant hit an enemy that's more than 100m away with an assault rifle" wow that's the most stupid thing i have ever heard.

You would think that in an anime about guns they had their facts right.

But no guess they were too lazy too do a quick research.

Most assault rifles have an EFFECTIVE firing range up to 800m.
Even some old clasics like the M-16 has 500m effective range.

I call this explanation thing they did why the game would be no fun if the aim assistant was off bullshit.

M was so badass in this episode, until that ending, which I'll try to forget about. But those snipers shots were great.

Only 2 teams left!

What's up with that twist in the end? Interesting.

His reaction is exactly as would expect after he said he was a chicken hahaha
LLENN has no chill, can't believe they tri-shot her unloading a magazine against that guy hahaha.
There are so many possibilities on his betrayal purpose, but I'm sure it's for good reason, but whatever the reason, fuck that noise, collect that W against this skilled team you have left.
5/5, the bullet circle thing both makes sense and doesn't make sense to me, regardless it should just be accepted as "Those with IRL skills, will keep and benefit from those IRL skills in game"
