AddaeAkono said: Kirito finally defeated Gabriel although his final form looked somewhat similar to Aizen's final form in Bleach. As for the fight itself, I just turned my brain off when Kirito got that massive powerup and Eugeo saved Kirto's ass again. exactly xD i turn most my brain off since few week ago LoL xD else ill start bad talk this series. |
| i wish and dream for the Future where everyone i care can Smile happily from their heart. But no matter where i look. how ever i see... there s no me. im not there. Just like that. |

| Dope fight! Great Animation!! Gabriel look pretty extraterrestrial there! I really loved the starburst stream animation, it was amazing and a lovely flashback to S1!! I am just happy that Alice managed to log out, now I can't wait to see what will happen to Alice's soul after logging out! But first, that cliffhanger, Kirito and Asuna stuck in a 200 year simulation... Time to practice booming!!! |
 |
| Mary Sue-kun turns dragons back into eggs just like that. Big Bad getting immense power just like that. Eugeo and others showing up and saving the day by making an actual physical interaction, despite being dead and buried just like that. Mary Sue-kun being able to heal himself just like that. Irrelevant side characters still simping for Mary Sue-kun just like that. Mary Sue-kun somehow getting his full gear and abilities from Aincard just like that. Mary Sue-kun defeating the Big Bad with the power of friendship, just like that. I'm fuckin done. The cringe is too much. But still, nothing can best Symphogear in that matter. |
 |
| i freaking called it on the prev ep that Kirito and Asuna would get stuck in there for the 200 years, i am so happy :P , now i am expectin Yui to save the day :) |
 |
| Ok, so Kirito first saves the dragons by turning them back into eggs (how can such big dragons come from such small eggs?). The fight was so-so. Kirito and Gabriel growing wings was WTF but then Gabriel transformed into some kind of monster angel, that was even more WTF, like is this End of Evangelion LOL? Too much mindfuck. Also Eugeo reappearing so many times, and even fighting with his sword, like WHAT? Anyway, Gabriel is way too overpowered. We are used to Kirito being overpowered, but this is ridiculous. Kirito needed the help of lots of the Underworld residents to defeat Gabriel (why were random people who have no idea about Kirito praying to the night sky?). And then the souls? of Vixur, Lipia, Bercouli, Quinella and Cardinal are giving advice to Kirito, oookaaay. Anyway, there's no more Gabriel and the Underworld entered the maximum acceleration phase, but Alice was succesfully logged out and also all the ALO players and the remaining 4? red knights and Sinon and Leafa. "Goodbye Eugeo" says Kirito. Is he FINALLY gone? Like seriously. At the end it's a bit sad how Kirito thinks he's the only one stuck in the Underworld for 200 years, without his real world friends and Asuna, but Asuna stayed with him, attagirl. <3 So, now what, with 3 episodes left? @__@ |
| Waiting for Gundam SEED Movie..... (ಥ‿ಥ) Waiting for Sailor Moon Cosmos..... o(≧▽≦)o |
| This episode was so damn amazing! I won't lie if I say this episode is one of my favorite episodes of all time. I'll remember this one for a very long time. I loved it! |

lostcattears said: it was a cringe feast... indeed... this anime has become so underwhelming |
 |
| I want to see the side arc / movie when Kirito and Asuna trapped in UW for 200 years. That's kinda interesting. NGL PLEASE A-1 |

misaka-9982 said: I just want to know what happens with Alice. lmao you'd be surprised when she meet Kirito later. |
|
| they made justice to my boy Eugeo so im fine rip lilpirin, you deserved better unsung hero yooooo are they really gonna adapt moon cradle? if thats so im prolly gonna drop and just watch again when blue rose epilogue gets out i cant stand moon cradle a second time 3/5 |

So this supposedly new arc going to be the rest of the story? |
 So asuna stay with kirito. Looks like Asuna can finally have her solo time with kirito !! |
Shady346 said: So asuna stay with kirito. Looks like Asuna can finally have her solo time with kirito !! Thank you for this XD. |
| That was an absolute eye candy. It was faithful to the source too. The despair Kirito felt when he realised he was trapped for 200 years was convincing. Finally night sky sword lives up to its name! 5/5. |
| If Kirito and Asuna are stuck in VR for 200 years they are going to make up some weird-ass sex positions. |
| What the holy fuck ass was that? Where did Gabriel get those powers? How did EVERYONE know that a dark sky was "kirito's heart" and was able to give him power? Was that the UNIVERSES longest staircase? JESUS that episode was terrible. |
 |
| so what asuna was just like "hmmm let me just not log out" and now kirito and asuna just gonna be there fro 200 years |
Lelouch0202 said: They kinda went all Gurren Lagann on us there, not a bad thing though. It was entertaining at the very least. Lmao that's exactly what I thought during the fight. Just like the last battle in TTGL, I had no frickin idea wtf was going on in so many frames |
| This anime shit is addictive |
| What a damn fucking good episode! My mind is blowing, I watched it twice already. Choreography, animation, visual effects, sounds... everything was so good! And the ending part was so emotional, it did hit me. I’m very pleased this week. |
| So SAO just got a Genkidama episode. Didnt expect that to happen. Where did Gabriel get all those weird powers from though? I doubt its from his GGO character. The power of imagination which was set up for Alicization maybe? Its weird to see that Quinella from captains memory again. Still think original Quinella would be a more fitting final boss. Got to respect a character which basically hacked itself into existence by willpower alone. PS: I guess its 200 years of 16.5 now PPS: happened last ep, but I thought for the real world to directly communicate with the underworld the time needs to be 1:1 and at that point it was already at 15 or something |

Shady346 said: So asuna stay with kirito. Looks like Asuna can finally have her solo time with kirito !! I was thinking the same thing xD. |
| This anime is all visuals at this point. Nothing makes sense. Nothing explained. Seems you need the LN. |
| I love Sword Art Online, but this season is a huge disappointment. After that episode I definitely gave up asking for consistency. But i still get to like it a lot because of the action, and the drama. |

avc_alonso said: Can someone explain how Gabriel is so powerful in the Underworld with his personal avatar? I’m so lost. This second half of this season is losing me I had the exact same thought when I was watching lol -- Man the animation is so on point, 10/10. Was kinda surprised at the end, not gonna lie. |
| Why cringefest? This was actually pretty nice by SAO standards, even moving. Not to mention that the visuals were fire again. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| In the end, the rest of the cast is reduced to just worshiping Kirito as he battles Satan. And their worship is what gives him the power to fight. This comes from the recent invention in fiction, that the faithfuls' worship is what gives the gods power. Even the dead make an appearance to pitch in. All this piousness makes me so ... so....  |
Paulo_Goncalves said: lmao did you just compare the two. The maou does mot explain their power up, SAO has.I dislike SAO because Kirito is almighty and all tribulations seem ridiculous when he is around. Look when he was paralysed or lobotomize (?). There were wars, and battles and personal battles and Kirito wakes up and everyone is afterwards a child. It's like they are level 1 and is level 99. It's absurd. If you watch another anime from this season (MAOU) he is as again almighty but done in the correct way. Oh well, I will watch but I will say I don't like Kirito and don't like the episodes focus on him. |
 |
| I don't know, I'm really not vibing with War of Underworld part 2. It must be the curse of the second half that always affects SAO (with the exception of the Mother's Rosario arc). This episode confirms it. I mean, it was a feast for the eyes and also the feels were delivered, but I've been half cringing and half asking myself "wtf it's going on why no you can't do that he's dead this doesn't make sense" for a few episodes now. I know there must be unexplained things compared to the novels (if I hadn't read part of the Alicization light novels I wouldn't have known about the "power of imagination" part. That's actually cool, I support it since it was explained, although it doesn't convey in the anime). So yeah, the episode was so over the top that the enjoyment is of course due to guilty pleasure and entertainment. The cherry to a long range of shit battle shonen-like episodes. I'm curious to how this stuff is explained in the novels. Oh well, I may be based, but I'm still a fan of SAO. I'm looking forward hopefully to some last story driven episodes before the season finale, like the first half of War of Underworld was. |
 |
| all it took was Kirito to wake up and this show just started to become horrible. Eugeo appears time and time again just do power up the protagonist, its enough just let him die already... and Kirito can even create a Genki Dama now lol |
| Damn that final battle was cool. Always epic when COFFEE SODA kicks in. I pretty much spoiled the main events here because I couldn't stand waiting, but I'm glad Asuna cemented herself as Kirito's actual true girlfriend here to everyone by being the one that stayed behind with him. No way in hell was she gonna leave him behind again, and I'm so glad for that. I don't know how I'd feel if I got stuck in Underworld for 200 years. On the one hand, complete freedom in a world of magic limited only by your imagination, on the other hand, you can never see your friends and loved ones again for that entire time. Plus the whole "fluctlight collapse" thing where your soul can only handle being alive for so many hundred years before it starts encountering... problems. At the very least, Kirito won't be alone this time. 2 years was tolerable because he had best boy Eugeo by his side. I know he can handle 200 years with Asuna there for him. |
Hegar said: you answer your own question. If you just watch it not speedrun. You can understand, even the anime cut the details. But the power of incarnation is like the power source in the simulation that can freely used by diving in the STL and people of underworld. If you see episode 7-8 of the alicization Uolo vs Kirito it manifests it like will power.chriskor022 said: lmao did you just compare the two. The maou does mot explain their power up, SAO has. What is the explanation for his power up, then? So far I have only seen people say "It's Incarnation," and link to somewhere else, which is the internet version of Appeal to Authority. Posting a link is not an explanation, and especially not a link to a video that no one will bother to watch. And along with that comes "lmao" or "you idiots" or similar. I refer to the thread for the last episode. I should add that I have always enjoyed SAO. Up until they made the dark forces switch sides to join their ancient enemies in the middle of the battle, because the writer wanted to replace them with a mass of American players. "So we get to kill AND MAIM as much as we want?" And I have always enjoyed seeing battle scenes with Kirito. But this flying and all was just too much, and the whole vibe, with everyone standing around worshiping him, and their worship giving him power, much like the faithful give the gods. There could be a good explanation, I guess. Or there could be just a "Let's say this is why, so I can write this glorious scene that I've imagined for my beloved main character." A good explanation for gaining great strength or powers late in a story should be woven into the story. There should be hints and steps taken earlier. |
|
| Visually, it was AMAZING. Audio? Amazing. But good god this season has been AWFUL in regards to writing and everything related to plot and character development. First few episodes we had someone ALMOST die and then get rescued last second like 5 times per episode and now all the crap this episode. All the dead people (specifically Eugeo) saving Kirito multiple times lol. What a cringe fest. |
 |
| Thank gods Kirito isn't left alone...even though she trusts him Asuna knew there was more then meets the eye. It does make me wonder how the log out process is like, is it voluntary? Does the person logging out even realize, or does the literal log out button just show on the menu? I wonder how Asuna opted out as it seems everyone else was forced off. Leafa's not dead, but pigboy was a wreck. I have a very potentially stupid proposition. Also, stupid question - Kirito saved the dragons...but does Alice get to keep them irl? Can't wait for the next episode. |
| Holy shit, that was amazing, epic and beautiful. Also that last scene....SOMEONE PICK UP THE PHONE BECAUSE I CALLED IT. XD Piromysl said: Mary Sue-kun turns dragons back into eggs just like that.

LOL @ people calling him "OP" when he needed the help of literally everyone in Underworld to beat Gabriel. Do you know what terms mean before you throw them around like that? @sfj4u Yeah um....guess you didn't know this but ghosts are still dead. |
