Reyxe said: MasaneX said: Reyxe said: MasaneX said: What would be such a big issue with ''dictator continuously ruling by living in the virtual reality'' ? Eternal communism. North Korea guy ruling forever would be hell of fun, literally. Well there are other ways to end a regime than to assassinate the leader/ wait for him to die. I don't really believe that mortality is saving us from those catastrophies. Uhh... have you lived in a dictatorship? I'm not saying i have, but i'm from Venezuela and right now our economy is fucked, we can't protest cause the military and some armed people from the government won't hold back in taking hostages or killing us. In 4 months of riots, 40 students and protesters were killed with headshots by police or the other guys. Also, the insecurity here is retarded, according to statistic, 1 people is killed every 7 MINUTES here. We are trapped in a country (cause you can't leave either, lel) with horrible economy, with a huge insecurity problem and we can't even fight back. So... you need to learn than Dictatorship regime doesn't end any other way than either the death of the dictator itself or a coup de etat. Cuba with Castro ruling forever, Venezuela with Maduro and North Korea with the lil shit, i'm really glad immortality doesn't exist, don't get me wrong, of course it has a good side, but it's bigger the damage. I do understand what you mean, but if the regime is holding on so strongly, will it crumble with the death of that 1 leader ? I am kinda back and forth about this ... Is it enough to get that leader assassinated to crush the regime ? Because that's basically the core of the problem of Mortality IRL vs Immortality in VRMMO. Also I wonder if a human's consciousness which exists only in the game would have the same political authority as a human with real body. This topic surely went an interesting way. xD |

Alright, to tie this whole conversation back to SAO, we have Quinella, the immortal Administrator of the Underworld. In order to ensure her continuous rule, she brainwashes potential threats such as strong people and those that question the Taboo Index and turn them into loyal Integrity Knights. The corruption of the Axiom Church was rampant, and the citizens deceived. Until a trio of heroes with much sacrifice brought down the tyrant and finally laid the beautiful goddess to rest. With Quinella gone, so were her ideals and beliefs about the world and the treatment of humans as tools. |

This topic surely went an interesting way. xD Ok in danger that we go completely away from the topic of the thread, it depends actually. If you have a dictatorship like LastChapter or Reyxe mentioned, where we have 1 figurehead who is seen as "god" then yes the death of this guy ends the dictatorship on spot. The basis for a dictatorship is always some sort of ideology, you need sth OR sb who the people of your country can believe in. (the only exception to this rule are military based dictatorships and those mostly end in massacre and revolution) Then some people "implant" (in terms of Mass Effect "indoctrinate") this ideal into the minds of the people. (interestingly religion started the same way ;-)) Afterwards you need sth to "personalise" this ideal and this is where we get to the main point. If this "sth" is a person then the "cult" dies with its leader unless we have a proper successor who is recognized by the people of your country (mostly sons) The other way would be a more abstract "personalisation" e. g. ideals which are important for the people of your country themselves and which they readily accept without questions. In the second way the dictatorship can live on without having a "godsend" (or whatever the ideal is based on) leader, as long as the people of the country don't change their reasoning at whole. |

I actually have a question that needs clarifying pertaining to the END OF THE ALICIZATION ARC. *blinding lights* The summaries didn't go in too much detail, but ALICIZATION ENDING SPOILER does Star King Kirito reside in UW or at Ocean Turtle/Rath? I'm assuming the later since Kirito, Asuna, and Alice dive once more and solos space boss. It'd definitely be weird to see a saged 200-year-old god interacting with the adult Kirito. salmon3669 said: Jarkzy said: Well, I don't think A-1 will look for a WN adaptation since web novels are outdated.LastChapter said: Jarkzy said: LastChapter said: Went ahead and added info to Gabriel Miller's character page.

On one hand it's less NTR fetish fueling, but on the other there's more weight behind it had that been kept it. Also, what were they actually doing in that scene in the LN? Because Tieze and Ronye sure acted like they'd been raped, yet their clothes were supposedly. Well, I suppose for Underworld residents even a kiss from someone not married to them would be shocking. I guess the forgot-their-names noble dicks molested them or something. |

Contraction Excerpt: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1319941&show=60#msg36492123 Yuuki's Past Excerpt "Even when they're infected with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, if they can be treated early, it's possible to contain the AIDS virus for about 10, 20 years. Through medication and thorough health management, it is possible to live like one before infection now." "…However, it's an undeniable fact that the chances of Newborns being able to survive for 5 years after being afflicted with HIV would be a lot lower than adults. Yuuki-kun's mother once wanted to bring everyone down with her when she knew that the whole family was infected. However, her mother was a Christian since young, and through religion and the help of her father, she broke through the initial crisis, and then chose to continue fighting the disease." "Continue…fighting…" "Yes. From the moment Yuuki was born, she was forced to fight the virus to survive. Once she broke through the most critical moment, the petite her was able to grow up safely and even enter primary school. For a kid—it's tough to take in a large amount of drugs regularly. Besides, Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors are drugs with powerful side effects. However, Yuuki-kun still believed that she would one day be healed and continued to work hard. She was hardworking, and it looked like she had top grades throughout her years in school. She had lots of friends, and I once saw many images of her at that time. She continued to have such a dazzling smile…" Asuna heard the doctor pause and sigh for a short while, "—The school didn't know that Yuuki-kun was a HIV carrier. Actually, this is to be expected. Health check-ups carried out by the school or an enterprise are not supposed to include HIV checks in blood. However…just as she went into 4th grade, for some reason, a group of parents of students that were of the same age found out that Yuuki-kun was a carrier. The rumors immediately started to spread…The law stipulated that they shouldn't discriminate against carriers just because they were infected with HIV. However, the sad thing is that not all the people in society are kind…in the beginning, there were people who protested against her coming to school to study, or pranks like calls and letters and so on. Her parents tried their best, but in the end, they had to move, and Yuuki-kun was forced to transfer to another school." "…" Asuna could no longer react. She could only straighten her back and listen to the doctor's words. "And though Yuuki-kun worked hard to go to the new school every day…the cruel thing was that…at this moment, it started. The indicator to show the weakening of the immunization system, the lymph cells CD4 started to decrease drastically. In other words…the AIDS virus had started to take effect. I've always felt that the harmful words of the parents and teachers in her previous school was the reason why she became ill." The young doctor attempted to continue keeping his voice calm, but the somewhat rushed sound of breathing revealed his true emotions. "—As the Immune System weakened, she was easily infected by viruses and bacteria that she could normally resist. This situation is called 'Opportunistic Infection'. Yuuki-kun was infected by something called a Pneumocystis Pneumonia and ended up hospitalized here, and that was about 3.5 years ago. Yuuki-kun continued to be positive. She would always have a smile on her face every day, saying 'I will never lose to the disease'. She never grumbled even during the painful checkups. However…" Having paused here, the doctor seemed like he started to move. "Whether it's in the hospital or the patient, there're lots of bacteria and viruses. Once the AIDS virus activates, we can only continue to treat the symptoms that came with the 'Opportunistic Infection'. After the pneumonia, Yuuki-kun was infected with throat candida—At this moment, society was rocked by the Nerve Gear incident, and there was a huge commotion. At that time, there was even a discussion to seal off the FullDive Technology completely. However, the country and some manufacturers finished their research on Nerve Gear in medical treatment…the first experimental Medicuboid was completed at this moment. Also, they moved the machine over to this hospital to start the clinical trials. But even though it was an experiment, the original machine was that scary Nerve Gear, and nobody knew what would happen to the brain if we increased the density output of the electronic pulses over a long period. So in these circumstances, it was really difficult to find any volunteers that were willing to help with the experiment. Once I knew about this…I proposed something to Yuuki-kun and her family…" |

Gurren Lagann/Madoka Magica ripoff" And so, favorites for Yuuki increased by nearly 40 in the past few hours. Also, I forgot if anyone complained about how Kazuto pulled a deus ex machina about knowing where Yuuki was. Mod Edit: Merged duplicated posts; please use the edit button. |

LastChapter said: You saw the convo with Asuna and the doc. Pretty sure A-1 will find a way. By making it two lines and not explaining anything? I mean, I can see why they wouldn't see the need for the full medical lecture, but the technology behind the STL requires an explanation so everything doesn't seem like BS. |
Dec 7, 2014 12:49 PM
#142
Yeah I am grateful they shortened explanation of doctor. It was bordering on medschool lecture in LN. I see the school scenes and theALO scenes being shortened a bit and yeah they will most def end on the cliffie - its their style so far for every episode. |
Dec 7, 2014 12:55 PM

Pretty sure they'll find a way. They cut the Death Gun explanation in the beginning of the season, Sleeping Knights + Asuna dungeoning before the boss fight, etc. But STL technology must be explained properly else Alicization won't make sense. |

Im actually expecting it to end with Kirito falling to the ground and Asuna calling the hospital or something like that, an explanation at the end would be so stupid because if they explain it here they are not gonna explain it again at the beggining of the new arc, or they shouldnt, so if people dont remember it, what is more likely going to happen, they may get lost or either have to come back to the last episode of season 2 |

I feel the first ep though will start with Kritio, Eugeo, and Alice's childhood, giving the anime watchers a mindfuck. Then it ends with current Kirito waking up. |

I feel the first ep though will start with Kritio, Eugeo, and Alice's childhood, giving the anime watchers a mindfuck. Then it ends with current Kirito waking up. Yeah. We would see the THING and then when Alicization happens we would get it contextualized properly. Yeah thought the same - we don't need the explanation for the STL in this season. And to be honest there also isn't the time for it. The only thing they could explain is the heartbeat sensor for Kirito, as the cliffhanger could end with seeing it display 0 heartbeat to confirm his "death". Yes they would have to change the order of events a bit but for that one scene I would have no problem with it. |
