Vforvendetta said: There aren't any explanations for a member of Laughing Coffin to be appeared. So the director must be up to something ... P/s: common sense, people should use spoiler to shorten their posts when quotations are long. I'm honestly sure he was just there for foreshadowing. He'll probably make another slight appearance, possibly in a flash back when a character mentions a certain something in Ep 10 or 11. |

See spoiler, which is indeed a spoiler. |

| To simply put It was a nice episode, luv that they keep up the quality in the animation fluency~ and the development between Kirito and Asuna. Hopefully that'll keep up with the next boss fight :3 I noticed they did also refer back to real life in this episode, although I know the main focus of the anime/story is purely the game, it would be nice if they could once maybe report on the happenings in real life as well. Even a brief telling, since it would be interesting o.o |
kamikaze_1996 said: im not not blaming anybody, i want it to stay true to the LN but it doesn't need to add in all minor details, i would rather have them use the time for other scenes Isn't it obvious that they're going to debut in the next episode. It's not like They'll erase the existence of them just because they're not shown. lol I don't really care for them though, they're just meat for the grinder. |

P/s: common sense, people should use spoiler to shorten their posts when quotations are long. hmm, thats all possible, ive played assassins creed so i understand how the blending works but seems really unlikely and almost impossible because PoH isn't just avoiding the guards he is also avoiding the people avoiding the people completely in AC is impossible he can't have something that disguises his cursor because that would destroy the games balance completely and as mentioned before SAO is a really fair game, unless AsadaShino said: kamikaze_1996 said: bakasinon thats possible but very unlikely, its unclear how long it takes for your cursor to turn back to green, it could be months or even years, lets just say it takes months for now, would PoH really not decapitate anyone in that time? its just too unlikely oh, so you wanna start this again bakaze >:D its not like PoH pks alone, he could easily have his subordinates kill the targets or even force them into a dual so his cursor won't be affected also wasn't one of his techniques to have his victims fight to the death? that way, one of them will survive with their cursors turned red and he could then kill them, that way his cursor won't be affected even if he kills them because it isn't a crime to kill reds also he could have a very high hiding skill that hides his presence in the crowd thus allowing him to blend in please.....lets not start this...if we started arguing it would never stop T_T and knowing you, you would rip me apart alright i get your point, its possible for him to have reverted his cursor but only if you can get rid of your red cursor in a few months, i would say that the red cursor was more likely to stay for years but i can imagine you ripping apart my point by mentioning how kirito threatened to kill "titans hand" and how kirito wouldn't mind being red for a few months <_< i still don't know what the director is planning and if Reki purposely let him do this, we can only watch and find out later |

But I really doubt it ever turns back to green if it is red. AsadaShino said: its not like PoH pks alone, he could easily have his subordinates kill the targets or even force them into a dual so his cursor won't be affected It just seams very unlikly that he doesn't gives the final blow every now and then. With that meat axe of his. Grr, I just want that thing to dig deep into my flesh. rawr I didn't take the wrong person now, right? o.o |

| Its just me, or the OST in 12:17 remembers this Chrono Trigger music? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vObqtLTvc_M |

| Next boss looks so cool :O (From opening.. lol) Hmm.. well this episode was somehow boring than earlier ones. 5/5, that we saw how cool next boss will be <3 |

PauloDDD said: Its just me, or the OST in 12:17 remembers this Chrono Trigger music? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vObqtLTvc_M It's pretty similar indeed. And Kirito sound pretty similar to link when he is fighting. The finishing blow at 20:37 reminded me SOOO much of him. |
kamikaze_1996 said: he can't have something that disguises his cursor because that would destroy the games balance completely and as mentioned before SAO is a really fair game, unless Nah blending skills also trick the crowd, since people in the crowd wouldn't notice each other, the purpose of blending skill is just to hide the red cursor. And that wouldn't destroy the games balance since he couldn't kill a person inside the safe zone and has to be a high level character to make use of the hiding skill. But that is just my assumption since there aren't any real explanation. |

Those action scenes were legit, actions weren't pictures, or a broken series of pictures, but an actual scene of movements. Not everyone can afford making an Anime with a budget that could buy Sweden. |

| I liked this one. Hope it'll be a good fight next ep. Still...Gleameyes? That's too cute a name for a floor-74 boss. ^^= |
| Really good episode. Cool to see a duel but I expect something bad to come out of that... Looking forward to how things turn out with that boss! |

fullmetal_adam said: irrational hate comments masquerading as legitimate opinion/quote] Think good about these words you wrote....an opinion is a subjective belief and irrationality is part of the that nature. Blind fanboyism is also a form of irrationality most users on MAL seem to sport. The episode itself was pretty mediocre. Asuna's portrayal and fanservice moments do make it clear what the author likes about women, though. Wish fulfillment at its best yet again, neckbeards and teenagers need to buy the BD's and LN's after all. |

kamikaze_1996 said: another problem i see is that PoH is there, it was mentioned in the LN that RED players couldn't enter towns or villages because the NPC guards who are similar to monsters would attack them relentlessly, so they can't use teleport gates which directly teleports them to into those areas and PoH was watching the dual right next to the gate another problem i see is that they never saw his RED cursor when you can usually see if their cursor was green/orange/red, i thought a big crowd such as them would see him Are we sure that the hooded figure is indeed PoH? |

But that is just my assumption since there aren't any real explanation. no, you misunderstand what i was saying i meant that it would be extremely hard for him to stay blended in and avoid suspicion from everyone in the game, not that blending was ineffective against the crowd, like in assassins creed, you rarely stay blended in unless your avoiding the guards/target you do know that ive read all the novel releases right? ive even been helping out with the editing as an anon so im up to date as much as anyone first things first, i thought that guy was PoH, the leader of LC kamikaze_1996 said: Scoops said: kamikaze_1996 said: Huh wait what?

| I can actually say I found this epi pretty decent! No random girl who somehow falls in love with Kirito in 10 minutes and everything is right with the world again! This made me wanna keep watching kinda!! Let it stay that way T^T |
   |
| Wow, 2 years have passed since to reach over level 70 The fights were matrix like and gladly focused on the characters than backgrounds The rare meal was cute and tensions in (top)guilds were shown quite accurate I wonder if Asuna (would leave the guild) and Kirito would marry ingame |

1lau said: Wow, 2 years have passed since to reach over level 70 Uhmm almost, it's only October by the calendar, it'll be exactly 2 years in November 6 when SAO was launched (again by their calendar). Woah he was held at knife point by a girl...just so he would accept the party invite. It doesnt help that the girl really has Flash-like combat abilities. LOL Was the hooded guy in their duel from that Coffin-something name guild that's technically the underworld of SAO? And that's the boss they were fighting at the OP right? |
