| Not a bad first episode, but I was hoping for news about what happened on Rath, like are the intruders the reason he is like that and stuff. What are Asuna and co.'s plans now? I also want to know what happened to Administrator. Her former knights say she is dead, but didn't the ending of the previous season imply she is alive? I hope these questions get answered in future episodes. |

| It pains to see that what they fought for believing they saved in turn were disgusted by them. I hope they realize soon enough what Alice, Eugeo and Kirito went through to save their peaceful lives. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
 Oh boy Kirito in haijin mode And now Alice now has to be his caregiver |

I hope these questions get answered in future episodes. Admin is dead I'm afraid. The anime decided to make that somewhat unclear for whatever reason. Whats happening IRL should come fairly soon. Have you read the source material? If yes, is the source material more clear about her death? |

Siglius said: teubert2 said: Have you read the source material? If yes, is the source material more clear about her death? I have and thats exactly the case. The novel essentially narrated her fluctlight being deleted along with Cardinal's. I see. I think that's a shame because I really wanted to see her ascend to the "realm of the gods" (or whatever she called it again) a.k.a. "real life" by somehow hacking and entering the walking robot in Rath or something lol. If you think about it, that's a huge waste of potential there. It could, if she succeeded, even lead to its own arc, an arc which would take place in real life rather than just in a virtual reality world. An arc where she posed a serious threat to the whole world. Thanks for telling me. A shame but it is what it is. |

| Welp, Kirito in comatose mode after his Fluctlight got damaged after the events of Alicization Part 1, that now the awakened Alice has to take care of him, most importantly, back to Ruild Village where they once belonged to keep him safe in a timeskip. The Integrity Knights that once served Administrator learns of the horrible plan of the Pontifex, it's just a curse waiting to happen, but it has to be resolved. In the end, not even the village wants them, for a cause that ends them up from being hero to zero in a span of time Kirito, Eugeo and Alice ended up in the tower. Episode 25 a.k.a Part 2 Episode 1, didn't expect it to carry so much emotions from the PV, and I'd have to say that it's hard to envision a future without Kirito. And more...what truly happened to Selka? |
 |
| Well I see we're not speeding up the pacing at all, but I can deal. The previous season looked great and this one looks like it'll be even better visually. Alice is great and honestly seeing Kirito so literally broken is pretty rough. Hoping for a good season. |
 |
| Alice absolute best waifu, I know 90 percent of the fanbase is Kirisuna but I have always shipped alice more |
 |
| Pretty good ep. Though I feel bad to see Kirito in that state, I like how Alice is taking care of him. Kinda remind me of the movie Me before You. I hope author don't make Alice suffer much from their love triangle later. Now the battle is coming. And they aren't strong. Can't wait to see how they gonna do things in this tough situation and bounce back. And nice ending song. |

| Kirito was really likeable in this episode |
| When Kirito is wake up xD? |
| That was a really enjoyable episode, Kirito sure lost most of everything, I hope he stays like that for a while to let the others shine a bit, cause he was just too bright, joke aside, Alice did everything she could for him such kind hearted girl. <3 |
| so far pretty good. nice episode imo. op and ed are amazing as always. love LiSA. i hope their situation turns for the better soon, especially for kirito. i think this is one of the few times he's not in god mode lol. i'm just interested to see what this season will bring. alice best girl <3 |
| Wheelchair bound Kirito is now my spirit animal |
| dude, that tease when ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |

| So far so good. Reall nice visuals. Storywise not a lot there yet but I must say i pity potatoe-Kirito. |
 |
| The only way I'll be able to tolerate vegetable Kirito is because I read some very heavy light novel spoilers so I know what's gonna happen in the end at least. I feel bad for anime-onlys |
| The animation, those flowers, were just beautiful, the visuals were nothing short of amazing. The story so far is good, I expect that this Season will be a good one. The OP and OST are very good. |

| A build up episode but a good one. From the looks of where it's going, it'll be a good season. It has quite a peaceful feel to it, I wonder how long that will last. Shame to see Alice turned away by her dad. And the way the wood cutters were looking at her when she tried to get Kirito's sword back. Op was decent, I quite liked the ed. |
| Kirito in AFK mode is the best and funny at the same time. I feel bad for Alice for experiencing bad things just because Kirito is out in action right now, but at the same time I like to see how will the things turn out. |
| By the opening we can wait a lot... Alice should have stayed in the capital, I know she was thinking of Kirito, but... |
 |
| That sweet Fanatio service in the OP wew ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Weird to see Kirito as a vegetable but somehow don't mind iti Pains me to see Alice suffer like this. |
 |
| That ED song was incredible! |
 |
Good first episode. Alice is better looking and more appealing now. Kirito seems to spend about 25% of the time incapacitated throughout all the seasons. |
 |
| Did Alice get her memories back? |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| Good start. Looking forward to Asuna getting more involved. |
| Ohh boi to be honest This is one of the best and saddest episode SAO series have so far. And that outro was also good. |
| Nice I was just only waiting to see Selka again, I like her, she is so cute |
| Damn I felt really bad for alice, she has so much potential. idc about kirito but damn this was really good. I hope ALice is the main protagonist from now on. Feels like a better anime tbh |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Doesnt allow Alice to stay in the village yet still needs her to do the work some of the guys cant do, like cutting a tree. Then have the audacity to make fun of a person that can't defend himself. |
 |
| Guy's literally been in a coma for months now and his harem still seems to be up and running. A fucking legend. |
| Wow Kirito is a vegetable, dark territory attacks and Alice is alone |
 |
| What a powerful first episode. Kirito's devastating state was the last thing I expected, a double wheeler if you will, it had me in tears and in shock, poor little guy. Big us for Alice for being there for him, it seems she's already called levels down for him, even sharing the same bed, I wonder how much of that because of his condition than her affection to him. The opening song seems to allude that the outside world folks would join Kirito somehow, or at least Asuna probably. |
| Kinda sad to see Kirito in such a state. Although I wish this has been outside of Underworld with Asuna taking care of him instead. Would have felt more impactful. Anyway, I guess it's just gonna be all out war from here, but possibly Asuna and others showing up later (thanks to the OP basically kinda spoiling it). I wonder what's happening IRL though, like could they somehow lock down an area that the bad guys couldn't get into? They mentioned multiple other STLs, so perhaps the bad guys will also use those, as will Asuna sooner or later. Can't wait for her to show up so make this damn Underworld actually feel like it's SAO and not just Kirito inserted into a random world. I didn't like the previous arc too much, but I'm still curious to see the rest. |
 |
| Damn, it's sad to see Kirito like that. |
