Kirito's name is not Kirito. It's Kirigaya Kazuto. The only 'smart' enough character in this anime to use their actual name is Asuna.


Why would it be smart to use your real name?

- She may not know his avatar name
- Since it´s an avatar, ANYONE COULD HAVE SET UP THE CHARACTER LIKE THAT!
I´m more curious about how absolutely nobody knows about Kirito being some kind of local hero (unless the novel explained that the goverment did not disclose certain information about SAO´s incident and then the anime skipped it)


didn't some dude in the hospital recognize him?

Yes, it´s just that in SAO it was disallowed when Kayaba started his plan. Lyfa may notice some similarities, she just doesn´t connect the dots since...well, you won´t expect your cousin attempting to save his girlfriend by playing an MMO.

That's not Sugou.
As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all.

Good Question, all that time in SAO it would be easy to forget, it didn't look like yui would remind him to ether. lol

If you payed any attention at all you would know that Kirito in ALO doesn't look like Kazuto at all.
In SAO he had his facial feature because Kayaba made it that way while in ALO he got a personalised avatar and doesn't look like Kazuto. From the viewer perspective they might look the same but they are fundamentaly different.

Also do I have to point out that Kazuto never told Suguha his in game name when he was in SAO? Like it was stated earlier in this arc, all that happened in SAO (username, who murdered who, etc) were kept confidential and the only reason Sugou knew that Kazuto was Kirito is because of his high position in the company that maintained the server.

The reason why Kirito got Agil, Asuna, Silica, Lisbeth and Klein's whereabout is because since he was the one that officially cleared the game he traded information about what happened for it.

Kirigaya Kazuto. That's where his username come from and that's pretty much impossible to deduce unless you've been told it.

Yes they both have the same name: Kirigaya.
They aren't called Kirito Kazuto and Kirito Suguha, it'S impossible to know that Kirito comes from the first character of Kirigaya and the last character of Kazuto especially since Kazuto wrote it in Romaji.

There's no way Kazuto would know that Lyfa is Suguha and there's no way Suguha would know that Kirito is Kazuto.

Source? The novel.

I enjoyed the episode overall. The pace is still on the slow side, but I think that may just be Sword Art Online's style. Even though there wasn't a lot of progress made, they set up the new world quite nicely. And I absolutely loved Sugou's monologue at the end. It was almost equal to that of a Bond villain.
Let this be our little secret, no needs to know we're feeling HIGHER AND HIGHER AND HIGHER!

THIS,

Argh, too much hate on SAO threads lol. It's almost laughable. Too many arguments. Why can't we all be friends? Oh well.

Anyways, props to Sugou for the NTR. Lol, happens to be the only reason I like him. I don't approve of what he's doing right now though. I feel horrible to Asuna. There are a lot of people who think that they would be badass and totally tell Sugou in Asuna's position, but looking at it realistically she can't really do anything in her situation.

Yui is so adorable I can't. >///< Sugu is great too. (Kirito ftw.)

Because as someone said previously. Sugou love adds nothing to the discussion but apparently excessive Sugou hatred does. This is, after all, a SAO forum so...double standards from the fans...

It's not even that it's Asuna, I think I would rage at this guy this much even if it the person trapped by him was a new introduced character.
I'm terrified of what's going to happen with the experiments, Kirito's probably going to run into someone from SAO who's minds been messed with @_@

I think I like this show for more than it's worth.

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

I actually think the only terrible part is the fact she makes herself romantically attracted to him OUTSIDE of the game. Like if it happened inside the game I actually wouldn't have an issue with it, because it would be interesting to see how she would react when/if she found out that it was kirito.

Well, This is SAO, currently a 90% "Carbon copy" of it. You'll soon understand as why this anime is called SAO

Like Ssjokg, said in an earlier post
Everything in SAO's arcs has something to do with events or people from the SAO game.In the end you will see why it didnt change.

Think of why Dragonball was called dragonball even though they stopped looking for the balls(as the main goal) even before the saiyan arc.

Suguha is so creepy thinking weird stuffs about her cousin
How can she not be familiar with the name Kirito? Didn't kirito became somewhat famous in the real world after the incident eventhough he only used it as an alias in the game...

it was an ok episode. The part i liked about it was towards the ending when Sugou appeared
"Either Die as a Hero... or live long enough to see yourself becoming the villain..."

Amazing episode. I finally got to see Asuna after 3 episodes, it's been a long time. However, she is obviously not at all in a good state. Her last phrase before the end of the episode was very emotional, but we know Kirito is trying as she spoke (although he only has a week?). I would have been very surprised that Leafa is Suguha, but I had a good guess a few days beforehand when I saw a picture of Suguha next to Leafa and made the connection (I'm very dim in that sense).
So, I cannot wait to see what's next, and how difficult the tree will be to overcome. Asuna needs to keep her hopes up meanwhile.
5/5 (all the time).
