Silent_Four-Eyes said: Why so many goblins this season xD I know right, that's what?...at least 3 anime where we have goblins this season? Luckily for the goblins, Kirito is not as single mindedly focused in exterminating them as Goblin Slayer-san. |

| This SAO is running at a very slow pace, don't tell me they intend to do that so as to have 60 ep or more??? |
| i feel there was more development in the infamaous endless eight arc than in 3 episodes... 12 min talking about a tree and a sword.... |
| bruh |
| The Writing for SAO has gotten about 5% Better. I don't know it it is because of the new characters and world or what but i have been liking this season more than S2 or GGO alt. |

BlackstarFallen said: Selka is really stupid for going to the End Mountains by herself. I wouldn't care if she dies because of her dumb mistake. Oh look, more goblins. She just wanted to see her sister. Her sister got captured after doing such thing so she thought that once the same happend she would end up where alice is |
 |
| The Goblin trend has infiltrated SAO. Time to add more salt on them wounds bois. XD |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| I. HATE. THOSE. CLIFFHANGERS. |
 |
 Welp! Time to get the slayer. |
| Oh god, the goblins invaded SAO as well, lmao. |
 |
| *Insert Goblin Slayer joke* Next episode is gonna be brutal. |
 |
| You mean when Kirito woke up and looked at his awakener, Sugu was the first person to come to mind? This man ain't loyal... "Divine Object"...made with the assistance of the Gods, or the Gods themselves made it. So basically a "Legendary" item. Man, Goblins are becoming a trend this season... Eugeo you idiot... "System" is a command eh? Well I guess next episode is the part where Kirito "System Equip Dual Swords" right? |
 |
| Eugeo having Deja vu when Kirito asked if using sword in cutting the tree is a taboo index violation, something really did not change even with memory loss of each other. I like how they well they depicted the heaviness of the sword here, such overwhelming impact. So it finally picked up to cave scene. Damn Cliffhanger. |
 |
| Oh great. This episode is another Goblin Slayer meme material. Not that I'm complaining though |
| Overlord 3 Goblin Slayer Slime and now SAO Alicization I guess 2018 is the year of the goblin. |
 |
| This was really incredible as they have improved this season of SAO, now Kirito is the most protagonist and that is the only thing that I like more than the other characters :) |
 |
| [insert obligatory goblins meme comment]. It was a pretty good and enjoyable episode. Anyways, I feel like kirito lowkey wanted selka to go the mountains and reach dark territory so that he has a reason to leave the village and go to the city and appeal to eugeo to help him supply for the journey and go with him. |

| - so.. the blade name was blue rose? didnt it? - it looks like these goblin doesnt get horny with girl... and they can speak (it was virtual world obviusly) |
| Now Loading..... |
| Congratulations Leeroy Eugeo, you're a damn fool.. surprised he hasn't already gotten himself killed somehow. Also Kirito, maybe if you yell enough Eugeo will come around..? No? Ok, just keep yelling then.. -_- Idk, Im so confused and the character's illogical actions don't exactly help. All the world building means squat if they don't start connecting it to the actual happenings in the story. I hope I dont have to wait half the season for things to start picking up and making sense. There is only so much you can string people along. 5/10 so far.. interested to see how Eugeo doesn't die in the immediate future. I hope it's not just magical plot armor because he's supposed to the be the token "coming of age" character. |
| Yes, YES!! Keep this pacing and we will be having a great adaptation. A1 doing it great so far, next episode, I hope they arent affraid to show abit more of brutallity and psychology concerning how fights and just "reality" is on the Underworld. |
 |
| Better call Goblin Slayer. |

I had no idea, where can you even get info like when did the webnovel started releasing and ended?? 2005 feels too old. |

| pretty alright episode. i'm really only watching this series to keep up with the discussion and to be part of the hype, but it's not been bad at all so far. in comparison to the original two series, it almost seems good, but the verdicts still out for me. if it keeps up like this at least for the whole series, it'll be good. |
| People are complaining about eugeo shouting when the poor guy just didnt know how to handle the stress. He never faced danger in his whole life, what the hell would you expect him to do? There werent even that much better options for them at al: keep hiding and see selka being taken away or escaping without her. Also, in the light novel he did not shout at all, i guess a1 wanted a better cliffhanger for the episode. |

Also, in the light novel he did not shout at all, i guess a1 wanted a better cliffhanger for the episode. I thought it somehow portrayed eugeo’s internal conflict. Like he wanted to rush in to help selka and revealed his position out of his desire because he didn’t want what happened in the past to happen again with another member of alice’s family, however, when up to the task, part of him is reminded yet again that he’s still not ready to take on such challenges to overcome his past. It’s like you said, also it’s not like there are other better options. Either face the goblins and save her or escape without her. |
