He saved her life, you know. And that is still not enough of a reason to fall in love with someoneThe novel does a better job in explaining why she fell for him though. And it's rather touching. I got emotional when I read it. I've also read itAnd as far as I can remember I didn't get emotional |

villax said: Okay questio. Do you remember the picture that Liz looks at the beginning of the ep?did she have her family in sao an they died?caus they look like they have armor from the first few levels. That is a good question but the novel doesn't mention anything about it. It's just something the anime added in, I think.... |
|
| DAMN so many bad comment on the dragon, Fucking no fantasy in your head! You draw then a damn crystal Dragon!! I thought i look epic, for a dragon in the nature of snow and crystal!! sure i want to see some little more fighting, and little character development but i will come in time i hope, Like shiiiiiiii we are still at ep7 stop complain!! Have heard enough bad shit out this anime an i so far really am hooked on SAO really enjoying watching it! |
| cause MAL is doing there job for once. |
| I would say that it is quite understandable for characters to want to be with Kirito....after all, it's important not to forget that everyone is stuck in this artificial world with dangers lurking everywhere, not just from the virtual environment itself but from other hostile and selfish players. You can't seem to trust anyone, which is why Kirito clearly stands out. Even though he is a solo player, and has benefitted from playing the Beta, he remains selfless and puts others first. That being said I guess this shouldn't necessarily translate to characters having to have to fall for him, especially over the course of a single episode. I would have preferred it if this episode continued on, so that the characters could get to know each other a bit more, especially since they managed to get out of the mess they were in rather quickly. |

I'm still at where they are calling him a beater. I'm reading sword art online -progressiveThat is a good question but the novel doesn't mention anything about it. It's just something the anime added in, I think.... Yes, this episode is adapted from the second novel of Aincrad, which was released before Progressive. |

| Lisbeth, got friend-zoned.. |
| Very boring episode. This looks like a romance show in a game, rather than a game with some romance. Or maybe a harem instead of romance. |
| Poor Lizbeth :( I can feel with her |
 |
| After rewatching, man...too bad for Lisbeth. Although, I definitely agree that Lisbeth falling in love with Kirito is a little forced. They should have tried to develop it a little better. Lol this episode totally dropped the hints that Asuna likes Kirito. |
| Why do the girls in this show fall in love with him so easily? Man, this is retarded. |

| Although this episode is only 3 characters like Kirito, Asuna and Lisbeth, I most liked is Liz and Kirito sleeping lmao. This is warm and amazing feel. I loved this episode. 5/5 11/10 scores |
| Damn!!!.. This anime is just an animation and it's in virtual game. They show us some love problems in their world which is the same at ours and I could really relate to it |
 |
I had no problem with Lisbeth as a chara until it's not awful, but pointless. |

| Ahaha, Kirito you're a fucking idiot. What did you expect to happen when you smashed that brittle sword against one that is forged better? Of course it's going to break, that's swordsmithing 101! Reki Kawahara can't keep track of what he wants to make of Kirito, sometimes he writes Kirito as a lone wolf, and this time he's back to a Kirito consumed by guilt over letting other people die. To be honest I prefer the former since the current episode Kirito is absurdly condescending towards Liz. She knows about the "crappy CGI dragon" quest and she completed it, she didn't have to hide while Kirito did all the job, but I guess that Kirito is written to be a Mary Sue that defeats any enemy effortlessly and has no substantial flaws. |
| Ok, now it's factual that Kirito hasn't a Dragon Slayer from Berserk, but he does possess the Pussy Slayer that's probably his dick, and it attracts all sort of females who fell in love for him. He's also their lord and savior. So, since the producers decided to spend one episode where the protagonist gets a sword, why not to add another girl and a CG dragon? I don't know know if I'm demanding too much from a self-insertive LN adaptation or if said show is kidding me. Hard to tell at this point. 3/5 |
| This episode was badly written. I mean, most of it was obvious and it was easy to predict every dialogue. I really hope this anime get better because for now, it's really not that good. |
| Lisbeth is cute. She needs more screentime. Not good as the last two episodes, but it was enjoyable. |

| This show is making it hard to choose the best girl, the episode started with me looking at Lis like just another generic crush and then I actually, for a moment wanted her to win Kirito over. |
| lis is SO cute i love her and her freckles. the VA too i really like it's very natural, she doesnt have that generic overly high-pitchy nasal kind of typical voice, it really adds to her character as well also how cool she's a blacksmith. i like her already! the scene where they were flung up into the sky was lovely! and that hug! so cuteeee |

| Kirito: Breaks sword without payment. Lisabeth: "Let's go to a dragon den to potentially kill ourselves to make a better sword for you". later Both: Almost dies........ Am I stupid or is the writing INSANE? Shouldn't everyone be worried at least a little because you know...Death. Why would she suggest this, to begin with, he's the one who rudely broke her sword without payment, she should have just asked for payment. Why would she risk her life for a sword for some dude she just met. Anyway, 10 minutes later, Lisabeth: "Kirito, I love you". Me: Bruhhhhhh........... At this point, this show is harem first story later. I have no idea how she fell in love with him, yes he saved her but why would he risk his life, he doesn't know her, all he knows is her name is Lisabeth and she is a smith. With Sachi[which I also found stupid] they knew each other for a few months, with Lisabeth it was literally a few hours. Also apparently Kirito's hand is warm......... If that was smithing then I am an astronaut. Then the obvious cliche[cliches are fine btw], "Oh no, he's talking to another girl, he is obviously married". In defence of the show, they are teenagers so I can let that go. This episode was a disaster just like previous episodes, I couldn't care less about the CG dragon. So, now that all the girls are assembled, let the ecchi and ass shots begin so that I can self insert myself into Kirito and have a good time. Ps. Yolko is still the best character, she was the only one capable of withstanding Kirito's d*ck and had her own thing she had to do[which was also stupid]. Also that sweet ass shot, I am truly missing it right now. Also when Kirito said "I rather die with someone than watching them die", I died laughing because Previous episode Yolko dies and he does jack shit. |

| They could've been a good couple. Poor Lis :"(. If there were an eroge for Sao I'd definitely bang her first. |
| Kirito is a real womanizer! This romance was just too random and it left me unable to get into it. Overall okay episode, like the show so far. |
| Yeah, more girl to fucked around. Honestly this episode is better than previously, because its just back to the usual generic isekai op protag show. The plot still laughable at best, easily predict, but that's why i call this better than the previous because its simple to digest. But, at least this episode had a purpose; to announced Kirito's new second sword, which later known as the dual wielder, and ofc the romance drama. Lets keep this as a harem. Sorry, Asuna stances, no debate until i get a clear point later.... |

| This was another one-off episode with another girl who falls for Kirito but is essentially a side piece to the whole story. One thing at least is that Lisbeth had a little bit of personality to her and wasn't as bland or awful as I'd expect, but the episode itself didn't do her or the series much justice with how everything occurred and was paced. The fact that Aincrad is only one cour amazes me, since this series is really doing a horrible job with focusing on the main storyline and progression as well as world building too despite Kirito travelling to multiple locations seemingly from these few episodes to help his girls out. Makes me even more worried about the future arcs when this one's been a trainwreck so far and wasted potential. |
| Wow that's a very great standalone episode, oh my god. Once again, a kind of a filler episode, this time with Lisbeth, as her and Kirito finds the perfect material for his truly's new sword. Damn if only wasn't for Asuna showing up, she would've had fallen deep to our boy, unfortunately, short haired waifus (as much as they are so cute), will never succeed to long haired "best girl"...but still that hurts from Lisbeth. I can only hope for the doujins and parodies to mend this void inside me, but Kirito x Lizbeth respectfully lives on in my heart. |
 |
| The momment Asuna entered the shop was pretty hard to watch, Lisbeth was so happy, but then it instantly all flipped. Pretty sad. |
 |
| This was one of my favorite episodes throughout the Aincrad Arc, it was so touching seeing Kirito and Liz get along. I even feel bad for Liz as well lol. And yes, there is plenty of character development within Liz. She is awesome. |
| This episode confirms dragon shit makes the best material for a powerful sword. I wonder what the inside of the dragon looks like... Liz is a colourful character who looks good when she smiles. Shame then that Asuna ruined the mood when she entered the shop. Liz tho backed down way too fast, lol. An emotional episode for sure, more so than the Sachi episode, imo. Kirito really isn't a solo player. He cares about others too much. |
 |
| kinda sad how some people are calling the episode "rushed" and how this episode was "boring" or "terrible". This episode is very significant, and cute too. Kirito's compassionate and caring personality is what led Liz to discover the temperature of the human heart, or warmth to others. She felt inspired by Kirito and motivated him to clear the game and wanted him to save everyone who is alive. Kirito also got something in return, he got stronger emotionally and cared even more for others. His character builds even more. |
| I will say something! I didn't like Lizbeth this episode until the very end. She was very annoying, risking both lives because she didn't listen to Kirito and then yelling at him when it was her fault to begin with. Despite that, she had a nice moment at the end so I forgive her. Interesting episode. Also I don't like Asuna's "new look" at all. |

| Rika falls in love with him within less than a day? At least she didn't die like most characters do in this anime |
 This never updates so that's cool |
| Gahhdamn, new character is cute. I hope they don't die like the first one :/ |
