Asuna was so close from logging out :( but lol I've seen enough hentai to know where that would have gone to :p But well I do feel for Suguha. But damn Yui and her ultra amount of Moe finally confirmed Kazuto's suspicion on Asuna, lets get there soon!

I thought this show was average for the most part, I was going through it because it was something to watch and this upcoming season isn't offering anything new. This episode though, yeeesssshh. This was a bad episode, just straight bad. The whole Kirito/Suguha thing is painful to watch, but it had played a small role and I was able to ignore it. This episode just brought it out in such an absurd fashion, it's so awkward. Then the scene implying attempted tentacle rape just pissed me off. Just no. Rape is never haha funny, ever. The scene had no place in there if not for the attempt to make a funny tentacle rape reference. It was wholly unnecessary and bothered me a lot.

4 episodes to go, I figure I'll make it through them all in the next couple days since I do like closure. The art in the show is great, it's had a few good episodes, but most of the show has just been your basic, average anime. This episode was quite frankly one of the worst I've seen (and I haven't seen hundreds of shows) across any anime. Rape is never funny.

Alright I laughed at "I'm in love with my brother", and those tentacles were awful, but I still felt sorry for Sugu. I just wish she were anyone else but family, then I might've been able to ship them as a couple.

Also her boobs @_@

I liked this episode, it shows why Asuna is so much better than most of the anime female characters. She isn't just waiting in her cage, waiting to be saved by the male MC, she's struggling every second of her imprisonment, I really respect her at this point. I guess she indeed deserves to be MC. I can't wait to see what's she gonna accomplish next.

I feel so bad for Suguha. And scumbag Kirito is making her fall for him second time.

Not that bad of an episode. I feel pretty bad for Suguha, but that's just how life is :/
It's a shame Asuna got caught again, and now Sugou also knows about it. I hope she uses that card fast and gets out before he comes back.

Btw, that tenctacle rape was so fucking unnecessary. This anime keeps doing it, one time it's pretty good and then they have to fuck it up with something like that.

I was so excited when she got out of the birdcage and to the terminal. Stupid octopus guys had to ruin it :( although Asuna could have been quicker in pressing the logout button.... I would have slammed that button so fast.

The whole Suguha loving Kirigaya is a turn off for me. They're COUSINS... I guess it's a matter of ethics.

Very nice episode, especially the end. I really enjoy hearing Yui say "mama" and "papa" :D

"I'm in love with my brother" WTF?

Besides that this was a good episode although Asuna not pressing the log out button on the system console was very annoying!

The ending where Kirito hears Asuna's right above him and he flys towards the sky was fricken epic! Go get her u bastard!

when she was so close to logging out but missed it by half an inch i was so frustrated. the best part would have been her waking up with kirito in the room. but now hes gotta save her. im scared for what's to come next time we see sugou, he might not be as forgiving as before (which wasnt very much at all).

I can't believe people are nitpicking every little moment of the tentacle rape. *facepalm*
What people should be talking about is why they decided to completely annihilate Asuna's character that they built up the whole first 14 episodes. Some might even say that her character even then wasn't developed properly, but this part is just completely ridiculous.

*We have a cousin relationship (sigh...) which is OBViously not going to happen from all of the things Asuna and Kirito went through.

*We have a sudden twist from interesting to generic plot (Princess in castle... YAWN)

*And we have the destruction of Asuna's character from this stupid-as-hell tentacle seen they decided to include. Really WHY? It had no part in the seen. Why wouldn't the scientists just be Human maybe? Pfft, whatever. That seen immediately lowered my rating of the show by a point at least ~ along with the cousin crap.


Realllllly disappointing me after episode 14's GREATNESS. Heathcliff battle = BEST FIGHT EVA!

Noooo tentacles, watch out Asuna.
She finally said it, that she is in love with her brother. Those feels when she finds out that Kirito is her brother.
Those sad feels when he flied out ;-;

Lol... umm one question! Why were they snails? I mean yeah it showed a nice tentacle part which some might like... but why would you be a snail in a game even if you are a scientist; those guys have weird thoughts xD.

I agree this episode was pretty interesting, it also revealed more information to exactly that crazed madman is trying to do with people's brains. Just wtf is the purpose behind this? Does he want to mentally change people in the real world or something. That guy is just messed up, much more so then the creator of SAO.

I definitely admire Asana's enthusiasm, she's trying everything she can to escape. The tentacle thing turned me off a little bit, it was kind of unnecessary to have that scene. Anyways these creatures i guess are like mods that only appear during maintenance stage of the game.

Yeah but you know the thing bout it is, Kirito does not know leefa's true identity, so its really not his fault. He is not intentionally falling in love with him, its suguo that is trying to make that move towards him, not kirito. If it was not evident in this episode at the end, hes very serous towards rescuing asana. This girl who he met online for a few weeks in ALO, does not amount to shit with his time spent in SAO for over 2 years.

Suguo is definitely going to have some mental breakdown when she finds out who kirito really is.

The tentacle scene was really unnecessary in my opinion. This episode was probably the most boring so far - the only "exciting" part was Suguha's inner monologue about her feelings for Kirito.

I don't mind the tentacle monsters as much as the forbidden love premise. Also, Asuna had plenty of time to push that button, I guess she wasn't sure she wanted to. I continue to argue that if you spent hours in a game with someone you knew in real life their personality would come through and you'd recognize it at some point.
Such junk...

I came here to complain about the tentacle scene, but I see that that horse is very dead. Suffice to say, it was disgusting. It really seems like the creators of this show got bored halfway through development and really really wanted to turn it into an ecchi anime.

I DO think Suguha needs to find a way to get over this cousin-love thing. It isn't real, Sugu. It's a crush on a decent, attractive male that you spend a lot of time with. Happens to a lot of people. But at some point you have to stop and ask yourself: "Even if he loved me back, what kind of future would we have together?" There is no future there. Time to move on, girl. As precious as you look moping around in your room all alone, you need to kick yourself in the butt and make a life for yourself.

Also: how the crap do Kazuto and Suguha NOT recognize each other in the game?! Their voices are exactly the same! Kazuto even LOOKS almost exactly the same! Hard to suspend my disbelief there.

Dat tentacular rape... It made me cringe, I'm not really into that thing xD

Beside of that, it was a fine episode.

My guess is that she'll understand that she have been playing with her brother the whole time because she'll reconize Asuna in the game.

I don't know why so much fuss about that tentacle scene, but I didn't really bother.
The episode was just fine, the thing that got to me more is that Kirito's cousin/sister
(or none of these) admitted being in love with him.. Let's see what will happen next!

Oh SAO, now I remember where you went downhill. That tentacle service was completely unnecessary. Not to say I'm morally opposed to it in anime, since personally -


lordmaster316 said:

but it just didn't make sense to include it other than to let NTR enthusiasts get off to what was a rather repulsive display of Asuna's character being turned from a bad ass heroine to an object of men's lust (since that's all she's been since episode 15).

Worst episode so far imo. Even though, it was a plot advance, so I'd have to give it 2 stars.

-Tentacle rape (rape in general) is a no no. Isn't she still a minor? Sheesh.
-This incest. Please make it stop. I don't care if they are cousins. Still no.

Lol, Kazuto ran some water down Sugu's back.

Asuna has escaped! And she's about to log out! NOPE.
Perverted scientists with tentacles are here to stop her.

Leafa, don't cry. (T_T) Don't worry, Kirito's here for you.
"Daddy, Mommy's here!" NOPE.
Kirito's out to save Asuna. I'm so sorry Leafa.

One of the best moments in the ALO arc, when Yui recognizes Asuna's player ID and Kirito goes flying with an attitude of "f*ck that barrier!" (and the best music in the OST plays when this happens)
