LastChapter said: antonn said: GGO Kirito bedsheet coming soonIs it gay if I fap to Trapito? Yay! I'd better preorder mine |
| Sinon is having fun now but shes going to be pissed at kirito in the very near future :P this season is soo slow. but its getting better every ep. |
| The only thing that mostly bothered me were the character designs, the difference between the fodder and our cast is just jarring 0_o Oh and I forgot how every male character besides OUR ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD KIRITO!!! is a complete creep that oogles at the prospect of a girl. 3/5 - not awful |
 |
| Hahaha, glad to see Kirito always finds way to entertain us, even against his will. Kawai <3 Gotta say, GGO looks interesting as a game. |
| best episode so far, i just wish it was longer ;_; however, i think it was just corny that from a myriad of players in GGO, he had to bump into Sinon xD... whaterver, it still was great |
 |
| Here's a question for you guys: Why doesn't Kirito cut off his hair with his light saber after Sinon finds out that he's a trap? Or is it a set avatar? |
|
| Amazing pacing this season. Best trap I've ever seen and Sinon smiling is really cute. |

| SAO II starts to get the hang of it. I love its pacing, it is really better than the first. Can not wait for next week and till Shino finds out that Kirito actually is a guy. I am really pleased. |
| This is the first episode where the pacing felt really off for me. It was like watching 2 robots play a boring game for 20 minutes. Where's the interaction between Kirito and Sinon? Only two semi-relevant things happened between them: Sinon expressed her knowledge of guns (in a very boring way) and Kirito hinted at his gaming past. The rest was just exposition that should have been done in half the time. Maybe it was just me, but even the transitions between scenes and camera angles felt awkward and slow. Also, the animation in the dodging game was underwhelming and there were at least 3 instances when the show became a "powerpoint presentation". I liked the scene at the end, because it finally reintroduced tension and the characters showed emotion. |

As said multiple times the casino game requires skills and stats he's been gaining and developing for years.Sorry for asking our praised GAMING GOD to be a compelling flawed character. 2. He totally sucked at using a gun, which is something he's trying for the first time. Pretty good episode overall. Can I have a pet Trapito? Best girl smiled, so 5/5 |

| Fuck it. I must admit, this episode turned me into a fan and not a hater. Tried finding something I disliked but couldn't. Probably due to this being a MMO based anime.. FUCK IT COME ON HUMANITY AND GIVE US A NERVE GEAR! *cough* Going back on topic, I regret giving this a 3/5, I'll boost it to a 4/5.. I must admit I still dislike Sinon but if trapito was the MC for SAO I'd like it more. Cmon, gender benders has got to be one of the top genres. Sucks we're only into episode 4 though and I hope the pacing gets to a decent pace. As good as the season has started, it doesn't compete with Terror in Tokyo in my opinion. |
"Hi!" |
| Pretty enjoyable episode... Watch out for trap kirito =p |
 |
| Finally its picking up! I really liked that episode, best one so far imo. We got to see a bunch of weapons, Kiritos shit aim(lol) and his sick mc.nasty reflexes xD. I'm glad to see that he doesn't look supper feminine he looked more girly in still shots i think or maybe i got use to it already. Really looking forward to next week! |

| Looks like we have a Stars Wars fan here. Let the Trapito journey begin. |

T3hSource said: Takuan_Soho said: Those two years were quite the ride. We saw Kirito being beat up left and right after he was trying to solo a few floors which were overwhelming even for an overleveled player. He started learning patterns, aggro ranges, animation build ups to a move, elemental defenses, elemental damage, area of effect, area denial, positioning, skill management. But despite that a solo player is still overrun by smaller mobs even if they are lower levels. Later on Asuna joined him and showed him the benefit of teamwork and over two years, many preparations, many recons, many raids over time they are slowly progressing despite their losses. Kirito started to see that people can work together and can be pleasant to talk to. He doesn't care just about games anymore, but the people with him, his new family, his FRIENDS. Despite being trapped in another world which is far more likely to have him killed, he saw the worst and the best out of people, and most importantly, himself... ah, those were the days. Having spent every day of 2 years risking his life against such "games", it isn't surprising that he has a far better grasp of them then players who have only been playing six months (not to mention haven't had to risk their lives to play it). I may be remembering that wrong tho. |

| Good episode |
 |
| Really liked the interaction between those two |

| I'm really into the character builds and stuff when playing rpg games, so this episode is just what the doctor ordered. It ended too soon man... can't wait for the next one! On another note, we know Sinon joined GGO for a reason that is far away from fun, it's great then to see her putting her guard down and enjoying herself for once. |

Amarrez said: Sinon is so fucking cute. The pacing of this season is ass though, way too slow. Well... It is following the light novel exactly. |
| Same boring stuff as usual, but the gambling game makes up for it. Also, fun fact... |
DivineTrinity said: Good ep. About time Kirito is in GGO. Man he should have just said he was a guy to Shino but I guess it will be fuel for something later. Talk about fast he already showing he is far too good at learning the basics of the game so fast. With how all the guys were hitting on him, I think he probably thought (and would have maybe been right?) that if he revealed he was a guy right away, she would just think he was hitting on her and ignored him. The gender discrepancy in GGO is way higher then in something like ALO. VanishingKira said: "Female" Kirito Dakimakura Flithy,disgusting,appalling,just fucking wrong on so many levels. You should go see a doctor about all that butt hurt dude. Also you're signatures picture is broken. |
Duri1n said: Solid infodump episode xp... Compared to the previous episodes of infodump, this hardly qualifies. |
|
| LOL Kirito totally misled her as being a girl. Anyways it seems he was looking at the Game Machines eyes when it was shooting bullets. That Laser shotgun in the end was hax tho. And finally, Kirito brings a sword to a Gunfight, though using a handgun for support kinda makes that point less salient. Heh. |
| Wow, so little unconditional hate here impressed me. I came here to see flame war and I see almost only reasonable people who understand how this industry and marketing works. I guess fuel run out during great SAO wars in it's forum section long time ago. It was a good episode and yes, Kirito is portrait almost as god, but they counter-weight it well with him sucking at using gun. And that's nice. I much rather prefer this kind of protagonist than generic high-school boy pacifist who can't notice anything around him. Trap was funny, I could almost hear admiral Ackbar shouting 'It's a trap!'. Question here for those who read the novel (Please answer in spoiler): When does Shino find out about Kirito being a guy? Or maybe she noticed at the very end of this episode when she grabbed Kirito's chest? Also, english speaking guy from the shooting game reminded me of the guy from 'Big Shot' program in Cowboy Bebop. I see a lot of effort put into this series so far. With that trap in mind I fear what will come out on next Comiket, Instead of cute Silica we will get Kirito rape traps all around... Oh great goddess, save us! |

Fair enough. Also maybe you missed my edit in the last post: Your signature picture is broken. Might wanna delete your photobucket cookies and see for your self. |
| That path looked way longer when Kirito ran on it. Also props to that guy for not speaking in Engrish |
| Mikatarukito and LastChapter: Thank you for your answers. |
| funny ep with trap kirito and his face and the enlgish game was funny xD if eventually japan makes another "top 10 female" and kirito is in there i do not know that to think of this world |
skudoops said: So why was he able to drive the buggy easily? I could understand how he beat the game because when sinon explained how it worked I already thought that relying on the predictive lines was what caused players to lose and I predicted he might have used a slide. Maybe I missed something but that scene hinted that there was a reason he was able to drive the buggy well, but I don't know what it is. Saw it as "Oh well, he rides a bike irl, so yea, sure." |

skudoops said: So why was he able to drive the buggy easily? As far as I know It's because he drives in real life. |

| I don't mind about the slow pacing since i haven't read the LN but may be they gonna made a whole season for GGO which i don't dislike and Kirito trap is awesome. |
