So that's the end of it. I actually thought that this season of SAO would be split into two arcs again but this is already the second. Well the more the merrier.

As soon as a hammer was to be found I figured it would be Thor's Hammer.

Yeah! I thought the same too.
Predictable ending, and anyone with a fair bit of Norse mythology would've figured out the rest of it right at the beginning of the arc (save the massive doses of filler)

This leaves the Mother's Rosario arc I've been hearing so much about at only seven episodes. I hope it won't feel too rushed.

Hope so too.

XD I should have known Frejya was Thor, especially after he ask them to get that hammer. I remember reading how Thor had to disguise himself after the frost giants stole his hammer. As a fan of RWBY was reading up a little about that.

That was really awesome.

It was obvious when Freyja asked for a hammer that she would turn in to Thor, although that was a bit of a shock to Klein and Kirito lol.

They got Excalibur too! Kirito is gonna look rad fighting with that. How Sinon got it back was awesome.

Klein got the little hammer too lol.

They saved the place and water and greenery/utopia was restored!

I can't believe Klein asked that God girl for her number too xD

Cool what Kirito is doing for Yui but he dressed like an old man at the end with his shirt and cardigan LOL!

Yui is such a cheat lol, they really shouldn't feel proud about their achievements in ALO if she can predict every attack... and I hate it that Klein is such a retard, guess you're either an idiot, an asshole or a girl in Kirito's harem.

The fight was really basic, imo: barely any tactics involved aside from Kirito spouting obvious as fuck orders and Yui being a cheat as usual. As soon as Thor regained his original form the fight became an absolute piece of cake, which is saying a lot considering how unchallenging it already was before that. Basically it only was a matter of taking out a little more than half of Thyrm's health, as Thor pretty much took all the rest by himself. I mean, I didn't expect some Log Horizon tier tactical battle but it was still quite disappointing.

Lyfa's lines these last two episodes entirely consisted of annoyingly reminding Kirito about the time every five minutes: also why the hell is she crying over a goddamn quest? It looks like a weak excuse to have a scene of Kirito and her hugging. The harem antics are ridiculous and absolutely out-of-place for a guy who's in an actual relationship so it would've been preferable if the show kept that shit to a minimum.
Speaking of which, why the fuck is Asuna reduced to the role of a mere haremette? She's Kirito's girlfriend for goodness' sake! Doesn't she have anything to say about all the girls he's acquainted with having a crush or straight up trying to make moves on him? Holy shit.

Everyone's cheering on Kirito to take out the sword when they could just try and, you know, fucking do it themselves if they figure out it doesn't work? The Kirito glorification is so strong pretty much everyone who isn't Sinon (who's only been exposed to Kirito's agency-destroying ass for a short period of time) just rolls with it and expects him to be able to do absolutely everything.

Man, this Kirito is an asshole to Klein. Real disrespectful to him kicking him in the face for no damn reason. Ain't he older then him or something? I would not tolerate a prick like that. And what's up with Klein being the jest of the gang? I didn't pay it any mind before until this episode brought it out like it did unnecessarily and it's quite annoying. Episode would of been average if it didn't have what I wrote.


This.
Ikr? All of their interactions boil down to Klein acting inadequate or wimpy and Kirito being rude or cold to him in response. Also, wasn't Kirito supposed to be the introverted one or whatever? It's almost like the roles are reversed and it's frankly annoying.

See? This is what made me dislike SAO and especially ALO so much: every episode was full of ridiculous shit like that and it just completely took me out of the experience because my mind couldn't help but pause at every nonsensical development the show kept throwing at me.

So the trap turned out be a different type of "trap" after all huh XD

Klein's mah man. I love it when the wingman gets spotlight in the series. Because their whole character is made out to be comic relief, when they're subjected to violence/insult just for keks. So, just seeing them getting significant development or spotlight makes me glad.

But.. did he just ask for contact info of a NPC? lmao :D
Tho Skuld looked pretty <3

Oh almost forgot, Sinon just proved why she's best waifu <3

Overall, I enjoyed the arc.

I have vague recollection of reading somewhere/some-when that Thor did disguise himself as a woman. So Kirito is worthy of lifting Mjolnir...and he's also the King of England, Merlin's beard!

Ragnarok averted and Klein is still the comic relief but at least he gets Mjolnir.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,

Please tell me Asuna is Kirito's girlfriend, right? RIGHT? Well it doesn't seem like that's the case.

Sanji is gay.


cause they have turned this in to harem

its probably a tease to make Shino's fan's happy so Asuna took that as a joke/tease to

My reaction when Freyja transformed:

She was indeed a trap........The other "trap".
At least, Klein obtained Mjolnir. Why did Kirito even threw the Excaliber =_= ??
Nice, Klein, but I prefer the other one :3 Yes, it doesn't feel like Asuna is Kirito's girlfriend ahahaha.
End of arc. Let's see the next one~


she is & so are the other girls, haven't u noticed they turned this in to harem anime :D

Of course, obviously Sinon joined Kirito's harem, how else could a girl be friends with him? Of course she has to fall for him. Cool final bossfight though.

It was an alright arc. Glad to see that they kept it short, dragging it more would make it much worse, especially when MR comes next!

Funny Klein reaction to Freyja turning into Thor and nice Sinon moment! Still feel like the whole relationship between Asuna and Kirito disappeared, which is very weird and also dumb since that's what drove the later part of Aincrad.

Man, what a short arc. Though I DO wonder what kind of logic fuckery Kirito had to drop the sword if he WANTED to keep it. The only thought was "it's still to heavy." And he DROPS it. Like why? WHY? Since he accepted after Sinon picked it up, it meant that he wanted to keep the sword. He wanted to have it, badly. So WTF would he drop it JUST because it's heavy after EVERYTHING they went through to get it. If I was one if the players or Klein, I would have kicked his ass off the Tonkii for that. I fele like this was just a contrived reason to have a Kirito and Sinon "moment" and I HATE it. Or maybe some CoMeDy with the gang's reaction. 😒. Man, Asuna has been fading into the background lately. Apart from their call, they barely talk. Sigh.

Anyway, the animation was good, blah blah blah... Frejya being a literal trap was amusing for like a nanosecond. Sighhhhh.

Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.
