Duuuuuude, if Sinion actually dies, that would just make this series something entirely different.

But of course, we all know that she's going to live because we all want good endings, right?
I believe that unless you know for sure that you don't like a concept, you should keep exploring it. Whether it be characteristics of people or a genre of some sort, you never know if you don't like it until you've seen quality work corresponding to that genre. Keep exploring until you've found something you enjoy, or something of quality. Then you know what's bad, what's good, and what isn't for you.

I actually thought this part was adapted very well. Especially that unexpected stun gun shot that came out of nowhere. It was definitely the best episode so far imo.

Not trying to downplay the situation, but Sinon could totally log out right now and not die.

They're in the middle of a tournament, there may be restrictions. I think you also need hand motions to open up the menu, and she's not in a good state of mind.

Nah, they won't kill her, that would be too big of a move from the author.
That shot coming out of nowhere was great though, pretty unexpected, even though I expected that the guy in the building isn't Death Gun. He really was Sterben or whoever, but was probably hidden by the cloaking device.

Am i the only one that realizes this quick scenario kind of felt stupid and they super dumbbed it down. Didn't they just prove Death Gun has a cloaking ability so he can hide in plain sight. The lastly but most important his sniper rifle was a rare model and the one they spotted didn't look like it at all...Sinon should have noticed that...even if kirto is stupid.

This episode was kinda boring most of the time. But I liked it in overall.
And why Sinon thinks that she's the only one who has dark and troubled past and talks with Kirito angrily like that. She keeps telling him that she "hates him" and that "he doesn't know anything about her", when she doesn't really know shit about him either. Kinda thoughtless. But I still can understand both of them.


Does Sinnon hate Kirito or does Sinnon hates Asahina Shino that she sees in Kirito(especially after his reaction to Death Gun she witnessed before)?

You can't "Measure" or "compare" ptsd in numerical advantage. "hey my ptsd is more severe since i killed more people" is NOT an argument since its an unique experience to each affected, because we can empathize with ourselves the most (and with those we relate to , hence why She is following around Kirito)

Just because Sinnon killed ONE person does not mean her ptsd is somehow "lesser" or affects her less.

No, she sees Kirito as a rival, it's not hate or anything. Sinon thinks of Kirito as a strong player, then she sees that weak part of him, she started thinking that maybe they went through the same thing, that's why he wants to beat him.

And well, she doesn't hate him, just that u know, he acted like a girl to get her help, shes just annoyed i guess.

A bit on the boring side.
And to be frank, I don't really understand Sinon's deal with Kirito being taken this far: he just told her that there's a mad player literally running around killing people for realz, so why was the best thing she thought she could do this episode was going tsun tsun over Kirito and bitching about how she can't fight him if he loses against DEATH GUN (which actually means if he fucken dies)?
I would understand her lack of concern for the situation if she didn't take it seriously at all, but we did see that she was shaken a fair bit by the knowledge of an actual murderer going rampant in GGO (even she has trouble believing the whole story).
Is now really the time for such shallow behavior?

while watching, i just get the feeling that kirito is cheating on Asuna.. even though he is not. Its a very weird feeling >.< I cringed a bit when Sinon said "then protect me for the rest of my life"
Maybe i interpreted it wrong? But thats how i saw it.

Yea, most people interpreted it wrong, she's not acting tsundere or anything, she was just voicing out her fear of noone wanting to be with her when they figure out she killed someone.

Damn Kirito, those moves :@ great animation right there.
I kinda knew they would do that move with Sinon, adding drama and that predictable cliffhanger.
It's a shame PaleRider is gone, that dude was badass, R.I.P
Solid episode

I love how they shoot at Death Gun once, miss, and then sit there and watch as he murders the pale whatever guy. And then proceed to immediately stop giving a shit about him.

Oh know, Shinon might die! Quick, get a close up of her vagina!

Exactly. Finally looks like Kirito and Death Gun may face each other next episode.

And interestingly, "Sterben" in German means die. So is Sterben Death Gun, or can he disappear from the map as well?
I guess I'm overthinking it xD

Dat cliffhanger, course nothing will happen to Sinon though.

But seriously, why does his pistol HAVE to be the same one that she used before?

There better be a good reason for it, or they just decided to throw that in there to force more of the feels out.

I'm glad Kirito doesn't whip out that lightsa.... I mean proton sword, that often cause soon as he started twirling around with it I just couldn't take it seriously and laughed.

The less that sword appears, the more I can actually enjoy the anime.

Perhaps I should just take it for what it is and just enjoy it lol.

They missed Death Gun.

It said Musketeer X on the dub though even though they said what it meant in Japanese.

That was a better and more exciting episode.

Light saber stuff was awesome.

Sinon dun got stun gun'd by Death Gun.

Oh teh Sinon flashbacks, why does he have the same gun ... who knows. Maybe it's common.

Hmm.. pretty sure hero Kirito showed up in time to deflect that bullet. Then maybe Sinon would feel guilty about her plan to betray Kirito >:(

This is exactly why I told y'all Asuna is forever best girl.
She's even gonna try to help her bf in the real world.
Cuz that's love, and that's loyalty.

Hmmm it's not JIGEN, he is shown as dead in the the status list at the beginning. So it's back to Kirito and Sinon's hitlist, either it's GunnerX or Sterben. And the two other veteran SAO players seem to recall and feel they know him from their former game so he's really a former SAO player and a Laughing Coffin member.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.
