Well. That escalated quickly.

Jeeze, do you guys even know enough about each other that you're going to jump in bed together? They did right, she's not just naked for no reason?

Uuuuuuugggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't know how much more I can take of this. I don't like dropping anime, but its getting dangerously close to that happening. If it wasn't easy to watch by just sitting down in front of the TV, I would've stopped by now.

I dunno, maybe I really just don't like Asuna or something. And who cares if you lost a duel, I still wouldn't join that guild even if I promised. Laaaaaaammmmeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Awww, I thought he was going to propose after they kissed!

But then he decided to after Asuna said they should get away from the front lines which was after Asuna assumed they were gonna get jiggy with it! (Seinfeld kept referencing that when I watched it earlier then I see this and think of the song! lol) LOL!

I wanna see them get married <3

Kirito killed that bastard! HELL YEAH!!
So much romance, it was awesome, a kiss scene AND implied sex.
Great action, as always.

They kissed and now they're getting married! So happy for them. Kuradeel was absolutely crazy, I'm glad he's not going to be a threat anymore. I am wondering though - does Kirito get a red "marker" now that he's killed another player?

Heathcliff's "time-freeze" in the duel was weird as well, feels like an exploit to me. I'm also glad that Kirito keeps remembering his old guild and Sachi and showing how it still affects him.

Finally a good episode. Nice duel, but too short. This guy was #cray. Asuna is getting annoying with crying all the time and being "kirito kun kirito kun kiritokunkiritokunkiritokunkiritokunkiritokunkiritokunkiritokun". -_-

Twilight is a better love story than this.

I never understood why they didn't just say no to the duel. Like, I understand the whole honor thing for backing down from a fight; but it seems like this was an unnecessary fight. They tell Asuna she can't leave the guild, but there's honestly nothing stopping her. They're not going to kill her, since she's one of the most valuable front line fighters. All she wants is a break from the front lines, so they wouldn't kill since she plans on coming back. They don't even give her an ultimatum, just a "nah, you can't leave" and no one asked "or what?". I know it was all prolly just Heathcliff trying to get Kirito into the guild, but I still don't really get why they wouldn't try to avoid the duel in the first place.

Did the Heathcliff guy manipulate time? Or how else did he do that move on Kirito? It felt kind of anti-climatic in a way.

Oh Male anime character.......you're ok with killing a guy with your bare hands, but if a beautiful girl takes her clothes off and wants to get intimate with you, you freak out! The guys who write these shows were probably virgins until their mid 20's.

At least they're getting married and kissed.

Oh shit, they had virtual sex! I wonder if she can get vitually pregnant... No, I'm just kidding :P

Well, it sure have advanced a lot. We got from tsundere Asuna to lovey-dovey Asuna in 6 episodes. Eh, I don't really care, that kiss was cute.

To see that bodyguard (forgot his name) get crazy was hilarious. Poor beard guy... Didn't stand a chance :(

I thought that his lost hand would be permanent. It would have brought some good drama, but at the same time, it would pretty much have ruined his special ability.

Asuna misunderstanding was adorable :)
That blatant fanservice, I like it :3

I get the feeling that Asuna will somehow die. I don't know why, it's just a bad impression...

I like this episode but isn't that the change relationship of Kirito and Asuna was too fast. They became boyfriend and girlfriend then they want to get married in one day only. But I like their sweet moments. It makes me reddish.

the be all and end all so far...

So much happened. It was so exciting OMG n____________n
First that fighting scene.. Finally we get to see a longer one!!
Kirito's opponent was so cool; his moves: WOW! But Kirito was
also doing fine. I'm glad we saw him join a guild once again.^^
Asuna saved him, so cute. And the whole episode was all about
their relationship.. ❤╣ Kirito ❤ Asuna ╠❤ . So cuuuuuuuuute!
That awkward moment when she put off her clothes. HAHAHAA
And the marriage proposal!! ^____^ An adorable way to do it.
I'm so looking forward to the next episode. Can't wait,can't wait!

I didn't really like the start of the duel but as it went on things got great. Just wish it had been longer. Kuradeel's true identity shed light on why he scoffed the moment he saw the robed Laughing Coffin member during his duel with Kirito. Poor Godfrey, seemed like an aight guy. That moment of fear turned into a moment of passion for Kirito, that kiss was perfect timing. Asuna and Kirito are starting to realize how frightening the idea of dying is and want to cherish what they have with a sudden marriage.

There's only one question i have, somethin' that isn't clear to me:
How could nobody see that Kuradeel, a member from Laughin' Coffin was a red player? Or didn't he kill nobody?

Thanks if answering :)

As far as I could tell, he was recruited with the sole purpose of infiltrating Asuna's guild and keeping tabs on them for Laughing Coffin, but once he was humiliated by Kirito he snapped and decided it's killin' time.

Really cringeworthy episode... Worst one so far. Up until this episode I was binge watching, but I think after this I'll take a break for a little while.

The battle was so lame, the characters were really lame as there was no background presented to them...
And the lamest thing was the love crap. The kiss - Okay. That was about due.
But the obligatory "confused sex-or-no-sex?"-scene took the cake. And then of course "Let's get married".. Really bad pacing. There was basically no character development between the two (there was more development between Liz and Kirito in that one, single episode, than between Kirito and Asuna in all ten episodes so far), only some crying and about ten times of saying "I'll protect you".
I was expecting that to happen in maybe the last quarter of the season, not before even half of it aired..

Well my only criteria: SAO is way too rushed. The first 5 episodes were really horrible, because you had no clue what the hell was going on, because everything went so fast.
Ep. 1 - First day
Ep. 2 - One month later
Ep. 3 - One year later?!?!
Ep. 4 - Two years later... okay.

At this rate I expect episode 25 to be 200 years later lol

Other than that it's a really great show, that got me back into watching animes after a couple years. I guess I'll definitely have to check out the manga, to understand the things they skipped in the show.

EDIT:
I have to correct myself: Episode 11 is even more cringeworthy. What the fuck is this shit? And from what I have read on this forum, the second half of the season is garbage anyway. Really disappointed, this started out so well :(

Lame when/where? I thought this episode was great. Kirito and Asuna realize that the best part of this world for each of them is the other. And with the looking out for each other, they're almost unstoppable.

Lovely OST, just lovely. I like these romantic moods! (^_^)

Heathcliff with his Holy Sword dueled Kirito with his Duel Blades.
Kuradeel then tried to kill Kirito, but Asuna saved him. Then Kirito saved Asuna.
They kissed and maybe just maybe they had sex.
At least they're getting married!
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Heathcliff vs Kirito, good fight.

Asuna to the rescue -> kiss -> stuff -> let's get married.

One thing that I've always thought was missing, was a scene of Asuna and Kirito returning and people seeing that Asuna's indicator is ORANGE and Kirito's is RED and freaking out... oh well.

Man,this got the be the most imbalanced MMORPG of all time.
I request a nerf for these broken abilities.

The posion paralysed Kazuto.but the power of boners is stronger.
Also,how the hell did Asuna knew that he was in danger?
Why did she expected Kazuto to think whe she drops her cloth right in front of him?

YESSSSS I have been waiting for that for so long. Kirito came so close to dying but Asuna coming to save him was great and all the scenes that followed were so well done. But I feel like something bad will have to happen to counter out all of this goodness D:

Kirito and Kuradeel going "yaaaay" right before leaving on the mission was also hilarious.

Good episode, didn't expect Kirito to lose the duel, it was however kinda fishy how he lost it. Asuna came to the rescue and Kirito finished that bad guy off, was about time that he died. The romance between Kirito and Asuna is actually rather well done, was sweet to see them spending the night together.

I'm...speechless... "We have no chemistry and disliked one another not too long ago but...lets have sex!" -.-

I mean I've seen my fair share of anime where the MC is absolutely irresistible to any female character but...fuck...this guy takes the cake!

He's even more Jesus-like than Kira-Jesus-Yamato (Gundam SEED)

The villain waits ridiculously long to kill the MC... -1
He had like 1% health left. The villain jabs the sword even further into him and...no HP dropped...PLOT ARMOUR! :P
How they could have redeemed the scene:

Villain: "What?! How are you not dead??"
Kirito: "Main character, bitch!" *Uppercut*

But this show did make history. It's the first anime to drop 2 rating points in 1 episode :D Whooo!

Good episode but 2/5 because OH MY GOD they put all of the romantic development in one episode. Seriously, let's get married? Like wtf at episode 10??? They needed to wait a lot longer to develop the romance. They haven't had enough scenes together to make it believable that they would want to get married. Still, at least it won't be a ship that never sails. No question of WILL THEY EVER? Because basically they already have.
