You know, it's a fucking bad choice to leave last episode's cliffhanger from a story-telling perspective.
Putting that aside I enjoyed this episode, I like to learn more about Kuroyuki's past and her connections and relationships in the Accelerated World and that fan service haha

People. I don't understand why all of you want continuation of main arc so much? As for me it was the best thing to pause it now cause to much rage is not a good thing. And technically they'll finish this season with that arc sop they need to left it for last eps

I'm glad they left that main story. That thing was stupid anyways.

I wasn't expecting this to span more than a single episode. Next episode might be pretty good.

Nice to see what Kuroyuki's been up to while she was on the trip. Luca and Mana are cute and interesting. Luca's okinawa dialect is pretty hard to understand. :P

I don't think Megumi is a burst linker, but you can see in the preview that she's going to find them in the real world.

How is that a side story?
Kurohime is getting character developement and we will be introduced to another fighter of Noumi's group (Because if you check properly that yellow dude that ride the monster is alongside Noumi in the opening and Noumi himself implied he was in a group)
Kurohime will likely use the incarnate system for the first time in the show.

The story is moving, Noumi's group is expanding and we're getting character developement, how could anyone in their right mind call this a side story? Because it didn't pick up where last episode ended? Blame the story telling however you want, that episode isn't a side story.

Kawahara can't do side stories. Side stories shouldn't make the continuation of the story to depend on them otherwhise they aren't side stories anymore but part of the main plot.
That's one of the problem I have with him, his so called side stories aren't really side stories (Or is it a problem with the guy that translated it as a side story? Either way it isn't).

Because this was in volume 10 and that was just 3 chapters of different stories. The Aqua Current arc, this one and the Versus chapter(SC versus a certain character).
It's okay to call this a side story. What's not okay is to call this 'filler' since as you pointed out, it will have some tie-in with the main story with that yellow guy riding a monster being related to Noumi and his gang in the OP.

With this mindset every single flashback in all serie are side stories and not part of the main plot.
The order of the event doesn't matter, if the plot is dependant on these side stories, be it now, in the past or in a further volume then they aren't side stories anymore but part of the main plot.
Kawahara have a hard time writing 'side stories'.
Now if nothing is ever dependant of that then it could be called a side stories but let me doubt.

Meanwhile on Kuroyukihime's vacation...what?!! There's a fight going on and Chiyu has some very hard explaining to do. Oh well I guess there's no helping it, might as well enjoy this. On the positive note, I don't have to hear Noumi's gloating and condescending voice, and the LFR (little, fat, round) MC's whining.^_^

And it's all Kuroyukihime! ♥_♥ Was that Megumi, tailing them?

I called it side story simply because it is based on book 10 that indicated them as side stories.

Well yeah and that's why I'm saying that the indication is off.
How the fuck do you present a character that will be part of the main character cast and have a huge role in a 'side story' (Yui in SAO anyone?).
Now I don't know if Kawahara said himself that they are side stories or if the term 'side stories' came from the people that translated his novels but it sure as hell ain't a side story =/.

Hmm It was nice to see Kuroyukihime's side story, but one more episode of filler? Then we can see why Chiyu did the deed. Monster might be interesting battle, someone hidden watching/stalking them?

Yeah, talked about being so anxious & obnoxious! I mean That's just great. I was so impatient about what happened last episode (I thought it was Chiyu who's in the robe but later after it airs, what the hell?!!)

Now it's focused on Kuroyukihime instead (2 episodes arc)..

URGHH, THE INSANITY! I'll Never forget about what happened, ladies & gentlemen...

I just have to agree, the main 'potato' is just a coward and he does get annoying at times, it's great to watch something else once in a while.

Although Chiyu going crazy in the 'main' story is also interesting, this was more fun to watch for me.

Well good fan service in this episode, I guess. It was a bit interesting to see how Snow Black is handling things on her end. Red screw guy drinking being a high school freshman, okay...

It seems like people who saw the preview for this episode were mistaken thinking the teary girl in sheets was actually Chiyu, as well as I have. Not saying everyone made the same mistake, but they looked very similar in a glimpse of a moment the second that scene showed for a second. I hope the story isn't dragged out too long with Snow Black's thing, I want to see Noumi get his shit fucked up. >:|

Just 2 episodes. 3 is just taking it too long, since The Aqua Current SS was only 1 episode.

People doesn't realize that this has connection to the "US" that Noumi mentioned.

Sooo much Kuroyuki, and dat beach scene in the beginning. Oh yeah I am satisfied with this episode.

Megumi is hiding something and it looks like she's also a burst linker. I wanna know what she did in the past that makes her wanna apologize.

Ooooh so Kuroyuki and Kurikin knows each other, hmm this is very interesting. Tbh I am liking this side story more than the one that Haru is in atm.

Megumi seems very friendly, i approve.

Also the two young burst linkers not knowing proper protocol, Snow Black forgetting to buy Megumi a gift, Megumi hiding something from Hime and the burst linkers master hitting the bottle. Somehow i cant shake the feeling that this is all Haru's fault.

Any who i'm interested to see how they tie this all together, why the master needs a king specifically Snow Black to defeat this mystery opponent and how Megumi factors in.

Aaanyways... You're acting just like the plot hole maniacs around here. You can't know until you watch it all. I think it's obvious that this has to do with the main story if it's included in the LN, after all they don't make fillers there.

What is this mess regarding people actually bi***ing about the new episode? Saying things like,
"I hated this!", "They totally trolled us..", or "I want them to get back to the main storyline, already!".

The hell are you guys talking about?



You really think I wanna go back to watching that netorare garbage from last week?


Kuroyukihime is the only reason I'm watching this shitty show.


All those episodes without her presence that were filled with all the faggot drama with Nomi and the pu**y a** trio were suffering. I hated it. Now that all that stuff is forgettable and we get a nice calm, soothing arc with nothing but Kuroyukihime and beautiful scenery and even better music and moods, I don't want to go back to shittastic garbage anime filled with fat losers and sluts.

That's it, I'm so dropping this show as soon as Kuroyukihime's arc is finished! I can't- I just can't!

I'm just seriously couldn't forget about what happened during Ep17 till I couldn't eat & sleep. Why am I having an uncomfortable feeling about this all the time? Why am I started getting over-obsessed watching this anime? I can't believe some animes that I watched gets me an over-emotional anyway.

People here are really funny, MAL just never disappoint me at making me laugh for no reason.

Anyway back to the topic, From the back story that Megumi was talking about herself about the book and story and reciting, is it possible that she is one of the healer that left AW long time ago? IMO I think she fit the description perfectly.
