| I was excited for this episode, it came WAY to freakin early. hey guys, theres this show I love called Sword Art Online, its got a decent story a bit rushed but its still enjoya-  Edit: by this I mean the story, not the show. I know there's more arcs but my point of this post is the story of the first arc just ended WAY to quickly. |

Level: 33. Dies 2 years in due to PK. Calumz is stuck in SAO. Level: 21. Dies 10 months in due to PK. Sorry.. it looks like ssjokg wins, though you both don't make it to the end :( and maybe killed by the same pk? Life in SAO With my real name I died in level 95 after 2 years by crappy party members....so close... Your (plot) armour wasn't thick enough to tank all the damage. I didnt have enough love.Without love it cannot be cleared. |

| 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. |

This anime is just horrible. I'm not saying that because I dislike the genre or the premise, I'm saying that because the writing is absolutely dreadful, the relationships aren't believable, and Kirito is a classic Gary Stu. ok its horrible after you have said it 500 times since ive been here so why are you here? just to hate it? |

| Best episode by far!! Also, I haven't wanted to cry at all in this anime, but when Kirito started crying..some tears wanted to come out. He sounded so sincere and it sounded so painful : ( Matsuoka, Yoshitsugu did a great job.. Maybe now, it'll start getting good, not that it isn't already, but I'm hoping it'll start to leave up to its expectations. Anyways love Kirito x Asuna, so I'm all good. |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |

Not so long after Madoka we witnessed Steins;Gate, and after that, F/Z. This season has many promising titles as well. |

lemonlimesoap said: My only problem with the episode is how Kayaba isn't held accountable for the 4000 people that died in his world. I mean I would have liked an ending where he himself played by the rules of his own world and died when he was beaten. At least then he could be true to the harsh convictions he set in his own world. But no he was just like whatever I'm gonna give that whole b.s. troubled genius speech and fade away. I have not gotten very far in the novels so I hope he just doesn't ever get mentioned. Since it isnt about flaming anymore I will reply... He is mentioned many times but he is dead.Believe me when I am saying that Kayaba is a pretty nice guy compared to the next villain. |
| Loved it. I thought they were really going for the 100 floors and that they might beat the game bear episode 20, but this makes things more interesting. Also am I glad Asuna didn't really die or the show would have lost some interest. |
 |
| Excellent episode, liked it from start to end, really. Weeks are so long.. |
| What is with this development? Heathcliff is freaking Kayaba Akihiko! Holy. I didn't expect for them to finish the game. Though I am kinda disappointed that Kirito got some sort of astral skill before he died that let him kill Heathcliff. And he came out alive. Can't wait to see the aftermath of the SAO incident on the whole world. |

| At first, I was like "wtf?" (Boss battle) Then, I was like "WTF!" (Her getting killed) Suddenly, I was like "WTF?" (Him dying, coming back, and winning the boss battle) Then, I was like "WTF!!!" (Him and her still alive in limbo) Followed by "WTF!!!???" (Him coming back to the real world) Finally, I was like "Damn... wtf?" Although, everything was cliched as ****, everything came together so well. |

Takana_no_Hana said: ssjokg said: No he isn't, responsible for 4000 deaths is a huge crime, compare to whatever the next villain will do. You need to have some common senses. Indeed Kayaba's crimes are heavy, but i think he was referring to character, because while Kayaba did indeed kill 4000 people he held no real malice in it; the next antagonist though is scum through and through, a true bastard who wouldn't care if even more than 4000 died for his own desires; heck he would likely even smile and laugh the entire time. |

I never said that he didnt deserve some punishment.He is messed up yeah but he wasnt "evil".Sugou on the other hand is messed up,is arrogant us fuck and evil enough to earn more hate from anyone that read the LN. |

| I think they did a horrible job of doing that final stab between Kirito and Kayaba it seemed alot better to me in the novel and not nearly as weak. It was moving far to slow in real time in the anime, for the novel it was like time slowed down for Kirito that everything happened in but a few seconds but it was his perception of time had slowed down. I felt though he struggled to move his arm and alll this was all at his slowed down perception of time and the stab into Kayaba was actualy fast in real time. Here is the last stab scene from the novel. Really i felt like they cut out quite a bit of dialog this episode especially during the Asuna, Kirito and Kayaba part till they wake up. For people wondering why Kirito is alive i always felt as if it was a reward from Kayaba, that he kept Asuna and Kirito hanging about so he could talk to Kirito in the end and then let them live as a reward for clearing the game. Also Kayaba has taken quite a big interest and liking to Kirito. Though they never stated for sure why they lived but they gave that impression. I have been no fan of this anime adaptation seeing as it is a rushed empty lesser version of the novels that failed to work the side novels in very well. But i think that ALO may turn out better since it should be easier for them to animate. I am actualy looking forward to Suguha i for one actualy liked the whole thing going on in the novels between her and Kirito and how the relationship of theirs is done. Im looking forward to it. |

Fair enough, what he did to Asuna does increase the hate, but wouldn't you say that by character alone he is worse? i mean if given the chance who would kill more? Kayaba didn't seek the death of others like Sugou did, he simply did his "experiment" and viewed the deaths as collateral damage, not saying he is a saint because obviously 4000 dead is 4000 dead and its a horrible crime but just saying i believe Sugou to be worse. Besides the only reason Sugou's crime were less was because |

| so many spoilers in here about the next season or eps or w/e please stfu |
| Mind = Blown. Such a crazy episode with so many events happening so fast. With 11 episodes left, so much can still go on. |
 |
| That episode was simply..touching i cried Q_Q I tought it was the last episode i was really sad and disappointed ...Its so good can<t wait to see next episode *w* |
  |
| the final battle has a weak ending, come on its the final boss the action should have been more exciting, but good episode none the less |

Besides the only reason Sugou's crime were less was because Meanwhile, if you're dead in Kayaba's game, yeah it's a game to satisfy his own amusement, then you're screwed. What if 100k pp were trapped instead of 10k? He doesn't care about how many lives have been lost. That's what make him a pure evil. Like a nuclear button, one fire, all die. But you hand isn't dirty cause it's the missle that does you all the works. Kayaba killed people in the indirect ways, he killed people by their own mistakes (stupidity, low level, creep kills, PK, etc). |
| Good episode would have been better if they made the battle more climatic.Cant wait to see what has happened in the outside world over this situation. Two importatnt questions came to my mind at the end. 1)Wtf are there no nurses or doctors in the hospital? 2) Will ALO start next week? |

Paul said: OOPS! TOO LATE! Well this was fun to read. I can't wait to see how more kinky things will get. I don't want if they go to more than a hug at this point. It's like "my girl is not with me so make love to me instead of her" thing. Been used a lot and in fact in some animes sex saved the dude from killing himself or dying so IF IT HELP KIRITO.....then do it! I would prefer to see a Kirito doing his cousin then lying in a pool of blood all terribly looking IMO and as example.Yumekichi11 said: Which reminded me. If you don't want a major spoiler, don't go into Suguha's page and look at her images, though it's kinda obvious but unless you want to. |
from a source some suggestions of ALO. I sure hope this is a joke! Here are my points based on it only.
