It was a good recap, though unneeded. I am grateful it doesn't take a separate episode slot. Guess next week there's a new arc...

Most interesting thing was the changed opening art. I always love listening to LiSa.

Really is there any need for recaps ? I am afraid that this unnecessary dramatisation in form of using old material for the purpose of making tension before second arc might be a mistake. From what I've seen about second arc... I am worried that it is going to loose steam and "imminent death threat" similar situation happened in second arc in first season. Without that element this show is just crippled moe shit.

so is episode 15 will be release after another week? can't fcking believe I waited a whole week for just a recap...sorry I don't like recaps,..
(-_-)
I was hoping for an actual adaption of a story that A-1 skipped in season one such as the Jotenheimr flashback crucial to the upcoming Calber arc, or even The Day After which will give some Sachi fans solice. If you count this in the episode count, SAO II would be 25 episodes long just like last season, a waste of an episode.
yeah they actually wasted one episode production on this recap episode, not to mention it's even unnecessary... I was kinda excited for the next arc...this made me drop down my hype/excitement...

Did we really need a recap?

The only part I liked in the whole arc was the grenade hug part. The rest was pure trash.

Got to see Kirito being a weak sauce again, getting his ass handed to him by creepy rapist dude

The recap itself wasn't really that necessary, but the OP and ED were way better than what we had for the last 14 episodes.

Sigh... its a shame that they'll probably drop new OP and ED songs for us in the next episode. I really liked Ignition.

Recap episode this week.

Interesting change in the recap: when Sinon is assaulted in her apartment, Kirito rescuing her is shown. But Sinon bashing the attacker with her portable radio is NOT shown. She saved Kirito, but somehow doesn't seem to be credited for that.

Ehh typical recap ep, cramming half a season of the series into a 20 some minute episode. Really not much more to say, except for they seemed to have made this a special ep so hopefully it won't detract from the next arc's episode count.

Not worth watching at all. Tried to watch it at first but when I realized it was only a recap, I skimmed through it to see if there's any new scene but there isn't, so.

I hate recap episodes. -.-

Nope, a trailer was released. The Calibur arc begins this coming Saturday (10/18) and the Mother Rosary arc begins November 8th.

I've never read the LN so I'm speaking clueless but three weeks for an arc gives us three episodes, which seems extremely short.

It's a short arc, only one chapter long.
