| That Sheyta vs Champion fight was awesome, i can't wait for the rematch. |
 |
| Hands down.. Best episode of Sao ever!! And I mean it |
| SAO PROGRESSIVE ANIME HYPE |
| Scheta a badass cutie, liked her interactions with the fighter. Good to see Asuna joining the fray with her op hax. |
 |
| Sheyta is one cold blooded woman.. Oh wait, we need to stop calling her that. But her calmness during a fight is incredible. I just don't recall, is this her first appearence? Or has Kirito/Eugeo battled her before? Either way that fight was pretty sick! YESSSS, Asuna is here!! Fuck I was getting impatient, but I am glad she finally got in! That's one hell of an ability to have straight from the start! Can't wait for next week to be here!!! |
 |
| This episode was intense and Sheyta is a freaking machine slashing anything at will. I noticed that she didn't kill anybody only cuts or a loss limb. The dialogue between Sheyta and the Pugilists champion was also funny too. Asuna finally makes her appearance as a goddess and now we have two goddesses on the battlefield between Asuna and Alice. |
 |
| That was an amazing episode! I liked everything. Iskahn was amazingly animated. The OSTs are amazing everytime. I'm hyped for the next episode, I can't wait for an entire week! |
 |
| Ishikan is the only Dark territory leader with some identity and personality. Strange how the Assassin Guild of weirdos is absent. Probably the plot is keeping they to face Re:Kirito. Since the only people Kirito is able to kill are dark assassins. lol |

Alicia89 said: Alice > Asuna Hm, i didn't understand why asuna let them fall? Because, Its like saving the enemy for new formation.... That was really dumb. Yeah, but I saw her magic power is high xD. Because they will die from that. lol She just opened a huge space on earth. lol Not exactly. Remember how there was 4 super accounts on some episodes ago? Each of them represent a god of the underworld and each are super accounts for rath employees to use to modify the UW if they want to. Gabriel picked Vector which was the only one free for him, while Asuna picked Stacia. Those are super accounts and avatars that are on the highest level of the world. |
| Great episode! Sheyta and the Pugilists champion battle was really awesome, Sheyta also ahve quite an awesome personality, i really liked all her reaction, and how calm she is, impressive! And her weapon is amusing! I am glad Ronie was able to detect that bastart, it was impressive! And OMG finaly, MY ASUNA HAS ARRIVED, and made quite an wonderfull and epic entrance, it was truly glorious, and her outfit was just too good! Now i am in max level hype for next episode! |
 |
| I actually thought that was the best single episode of this season. Awesome stuff, honestly this season is lightyears better than the last |
| It is so nice to see how this war is getting more balanced now. - Dark forces killed some extra low-soldiers, a random sub-knight and just one knight we could not care less. - Human forces slaughter ALL the Goblins, Biiig Goblins, Baaad Goblins (goblin slayer is rating this series a huge 10.0), also almost all the "ogre" Werewolfs , forced the enemy sacrifice all their "orc" japanese pigs, and burnt 2/3 of the Mage waifus. but - THE (DARK) EMPIRE STRIKES BACK: Vassago, using powerfull Knight Avatar proceed to kill 5 (FIVE) low soldiers npc. OH NO To reequilibrate this, thankfully here comes ASUNA-SAMA calling the power of HAX - MOSES MODE ON to divide the land and send Vassago and all his dark knights to oblivion. Ah the tension! |
|
| Asuna!!! omg what a goddess let's gooooo |
 |
| Good episode, probably the best of the season, glad Asuna is here; it's kinda stupid she has an Admin account but it makes sense, balancing story wise will weird. Anyways, man, for fuck's sake, someone get SAO some decent villains. The antagonists are always so damn boring. The integrity knights and Admin were some of the exceptions, good antagonists, but now they're protagonists. These DT fucks on the other hand, and especially POH and his patented SAO creep king are so eh. |
 |
| SAO is killing it with alicization. So hype! |
 |
| Solid episode, but nothing special. I like Sheyta and her fighting stile. But i don't understand the love for Asuna tho. She is one of the worst characters in SAO. |

| Amazing episode! The fight between Scheta and Iskhan is CRAZY! The return of Asuna/Stacia! |

| It's about time Asuna comes. |
| As expected, we only get like 30 seconds of Asuna but at least she's here now we can stop focusing on filler fights So that dude is an SAO survivor, huh. |
| The episode is truly amazing. Every episode is better than the previous one, incredibile! |
| Asuna came sooner than I expected, but it was glorious! The best part about the flashbacks is we get to see more and more tiny bits of Quinella. I am so hyped right now. Ps: why are all the negative comments literally brain dead? |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| episode was pretty good and looked great too had no idea who this knight lady was but she was cool fight was balanced due to their own personal reasons of just enjoying it. ending had me dying but i was like Krito is gonna wake up or something big is gonna happen GM Asuna has joined the lobby. her character is legit just in god mode right or some insanely powerful character |
 |
| So... a girl who can cut through anything, saddled with extremely powerful homicidal tendencies... Scheta is basically a walking Kara no Kyoukai reference, huh? |
| Yet these hands will never hold anything. Thus I pray, Unlimited Waifu Works!  |
| Sheyta v that guy was actually good, if it wasn't for that Dampa guy, he would've been dead. |

| Lady Sheyta is a beast fighter man, this episode was awesome. |

Ezizi said: Where was Sheyta when kirito and eugeo were climbing the tower, she wasnt frozen right? She was. In the light novel, Quinella froze her after Sheyta killed another Integrity Knight in a duel because she couldn't control her slashing obsession. I think she was deemed too unstable and Quinella was planning to "fix" her (the same way she was planning to one day "fix" Renly) but well, Kirito kinda threw a wrench in that plan lol (Quinella originally kept Sheyta because her slashing obsession made her good to unleash on enemies but once she cut down an ally she became a liability). When Bercouli unfroze her to prepare for the war, he admitted to Alice that even HE was scared of Sheyta when she woke up at first. |
Superns18 said: It's just not your typical echhi harem rather it's a "serious" harem which makes it reluctant for the "fans" to accept the truth.Fagger said: The word “harem” is being abused more and more nowadays. Harem anime are other kind of anime. Harem anime had their definition to be harem and that definition can’t be applied to sao. But, everyone has an opinion so I don’t want to criticize you, it’s a my think. It's not being abused. If there are multiple girls around the MC consistently who are interested in him/in love, it's a harem. Being a harem isn't bad, idk why people get so upset about their favourite series being a harem, lol. You can be a good series and be a harem. SAO is a harem, it is what it is. Shouldn't affect your enjoyment of it. It's like thinking you can't like something because you're 40 and it's not seinen. |
Alvaritoterreos said: N1ghtShadow said: I think that since this is a shounen anime they are doing this correctly, building up characters and creating them to just be there and do nothing, (Silica and Liz *cough*) is pointless, instead this season they are creating characters, giving them personalities and making the fight and developm themselves, I do like this season just for that, enough Kirito/Asuna/Sinon in the other seasons.I am getting tired of these nonsense Integrity Knights fights, we know nothing about them and they take up 90% of an episode. Asuna at the end saved the episode but I would prefer an entrance when the entire army was about to lose and she appeared fighting with her sword with some holy effects around her or something. Guess the sword entrance will be for Kirito once he recovers. We do know Liz and Silica tho. We have some background om them. I have 0 connection with these Knights. |
EliAyaseLL said: That's the type of spoiler I've always wanted.. lol..😆Asuna entry was really breathtaking, she will be amazing in this arc. This is absolutely my favorite part of the light novel. Scheta and Iskahn fight was amazing especially knowing that |
Rob7 said: - Human forces slaughter ALL the Goblins, Biiig Goblins, Baaad Goblins (goblin slayer is rating this series a huge 10.0) LMAO Goblin Slayer keeping the show's score afloat! |
| Sheeta vs Champions is the hightlight for this episode |
 |
| Absolutely beautiful episode - the sound effects were top-notch and the music played well into the battles. I also can't believe Asuna's finally decided to show up! It seems that they teased an upcoming battle between her teaming with Alice and Vector as well. Hopefully, it'll be just as good as this episode coming up. :) |
| LETSSSSS GOOOOOOOOO, GODDESS ASUNA HAS LOGGED IN BABY! Great episode, great fight, great animation, and best of all, Asuna has finally made her way into the Underworld! The alternative version of the opening was HYPEE and instantly I knew Asuna was gonna be in the episode! The fight with Sheyta and Pugilists was awesome and had amazing animation. Too bad the fight didn't get to end but that means we will see a round 2! Asuna coming in at the perfect time to save Ronie and she is literally so OP! Shes logged in on the highest authority level account! One of the 2 guys that actually got up and did something ended up dying, lmaooo. Kirito had his GOD moment in Ordinal Scale so now Asuna is getting hers. Hyped for the next episode as always! |
My Candies:   |
| Iskahn make fist fighting a hell lot cooler than using sword. |
| *Whale Player That hasn't log in for a month then appear again... Yup that's the conclusion of this episode |
 |
SailorVeki said: "They looked like they were having fun while fighting. I thik I'll ship them" you will be happy later ASUNAAAAA!! <3 I liked changes in the opening. *O* Sheyta fight against Pugilist leader was cool. "Should I call you grandma?" - "I'll allow it." - LOL "And would you stop looking so sleepy?!" - LOL They looked like they were having fun while fighting. I thik I'll ship them. XD Man, Ronie and Tiese are really useless. <_< Stacia Asuna is soo cool! <3 Can't wait to see more of her. I was getting bored of overpowered Alice, now we get to see overpowered Asuna. <3 |
 |
Banshee-IV said: i will be pleased if they change it for Bercouli v Gabriel lollmao that fake spoiler in the opening... let me tell you guys, there is NO SUCH THING as a 2v1 Asuna/Alice vs. Vector in the story (just like the previous opening showed Eldrie fighting Dee Eye Ell which was also fake as hell) So don't fall for the fake hype lol |
|
| good episode, good fight and animation but nowhere near kirito v goblins lol (i was expecting more than that tbh). as usual the ost is superb, yuki kajiura never fails to amaze me the kuudere knight is here, damn she is sexy tho |
