MishaBerrii said: Wait, why could Kirito and Alice be healed, but not Charlotte? I get that she's different, but surely the spells should work universally on every "living" being in that universe? Kirito and Alice were wounded, but Charlotte was dead by the time Cardinal appeared. That is why the spider was shown to be shrinking to its normal size. |
| Great episode,good thing Cardinal showed up |
 |
| Isn't it ironic that after a discussion about gods, the episode just pulls a deus ex machina moments later out of nowhere? SAO never fails to amaze me on how awful it can get. |
 |
| And we kill thousands of spiders every day, shame on us. |

Windman said: EmperorAlfred said: Welp, that was a boring one, that was just anti-climactic, the fight scenes during the first and second seasons are better, here we are near the end of the season season's first half and I am still not as satisfied with the battles as I would've expected. They will probably go 4cour straight without a break, as it was stated it would be 4cour and they literally made a recap episode at 19, so why would they end at 24? Also what happens at the end of ep24 is a huge cliffhanger and would be retarded to end the season as such. So I guess they're retarded now then? >SAO Alicization 2 announced. Oct. 2019 |

| More Administrator fanservice, keep it coming! Oh yeah fighting and dialogue... can't remember as much of that stuff SSL443 said: Goddammit, they should have thrown the fight just so that the little jester freak could have his way with Quinella. Lol yes! |
 |
| Eh, I knew loli megane, umm, I mean Cardinal would appear to save them IN THE VERY LAST MOMENT, could it get any more obvious? The golden sword-thingy was pretty cool though, Gilgamesh would enjoy it, I suppose. |

| Defend yourself from flame by flowers, even though you have freaking ice weapon. Well, at least we got to see aincrad Kirito a bit. |

Paul said: Alice getting stabbed got me worried for a second, but then Kirito got stabbed too and knowing he will probably never die, it negated my worries. Lool, that is so funny, but actually a fair point. RIP the spider, and well, they did adapt this episode quite well, despite it feeling weird to have the Admin standing there for so long not doing anything, after Charllote dies. Nezt episode should be the start of the nightmare. |
 |
| Very anti climatic, Sword Golem defeated in 1 hit of Cardinal and she even heals them after the Sword Golem almost killed them, Chralotte who is like an npc seems to have developed something similar to emotions and helped the bunch till the end. Anyways don't know the point of the clown or Kirito, Alic and Eugeo in this fight anymore Cardinal and Quinella are way to OP to stand a chance or even help in the fight given that they almost died by something that was killed in 1 hit by Cardinal. |
| Damn, cool attack of Kirito vs Chudelkin. Absolutely brutal, the attack on Alice and Kirito ... O_O Oh shit, Spider bae coming to the rescue ... and she's dead :( Cardinal one shotting the Golem was a bit overpowered ... Why didnt Cardinal save the spider D: |
 |
| Aye, Eugeo didn't pull the trope I hate where they wait until the distraction is over before doing anything. |
 |
| i love the pacing of the episodes. I kinda wished for a longer fight but I haven't been expecting any since the bercoulli fight. Sad, but still, it's good |

| -What should otherwise be epic and exciting fights are ridiculously short and anticlimatic. -Quinella wants to remain at the top of Underworld society even if there would hardly be a society to rule over. -Chekhov's Gun (the second dagger) has fired, and the bullet is plot armor. Good on the story for already introducing us to the Cardinal and her backstory, abilities, situation, and the tools that she had given them, so this moment made sense rather than being a Deus Ex Machina. -RIP Charlotte. |
   |
| Didn't expect to be devastated by a spider's death, but here we are. Poor Charlotte. Poor Cardinal. I hope she kicks Quinella's nice ass. |
| Finally, the clown is dead. The fight with him ended being so short. A bit surprised that Kirito getting his old SAO outfit for a moment. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Clown went down faster than I expected nice. Quinella continues to be bae, liked her little talk with Kirito. Can't say I felt anything for the spider. |
 |
| Cardinal shows up like a boss |
| Based Certified. I love anime armpits. |
| I was totally focused on those BREASTS ... O_________O I mean the plot >.< But damn I learned so much, I think if i have hot females teaching me naked I could have become the conqueror of the world js. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| The real fight begins, Chudelkin got wasted xD Rip spider |
 |
| The spider was the real MVP of this entire series probably. |
| The senator died so fast it's not even funny. But at least Kirito was cool with his Aincrad robe appearing (for some reason?) on him. The sword golem sounds cool, and I bet it didn't go down for good just yet. I can't really feel sadness for a random spider like that, but RIP I guess. |
 |
| Expected a hard and brutal fight with the sword golem but nope! Closing to the end of this season... |
 |
| Geez, what a joke. I couldn't even bother worrying about the characters being stabbed, as I knew that deus ex machina would save them once again. Nothing meaningful happens to the characters, so there is no sense of danger in the fights. Someone should die already. |
| episode recap >clown gets fucked up by kirito >more naked hotness >administrator summons op killing machine that stabs alice and kirito >eugeo stabs the elevator with the dagger which somehow summons the cardinal >charlotte the spider, the same one from charlotte's web dies (rip) to buy time for everyone >everyone is sad over a fucking spider for some reason >cardinal goes full hacks mode and destroys op killing machine > 1v4 now administrator vs kirito, eugeo, alice, and cardinal >gg no re? find out on the next episode of dbz honestly kind of lol'd at this episode. As much as I liked this season these last few episodes have been kind of meh |
| I don't get it, so what's the command Quintella wants to use against the developers? Seems like she doesn't quite get how a program works lol |
| sad spider moment |
 |
| KIRITOOO!! That Aincrad clothing was back for 2 seconds and I loved it! I was looking forward to the sword fight between Quinella and Kirito from the opening, but I should have known that never happens. Now to see how this ends. Also it's quite funny that Quinella really thinks she can go against Rath, lol. If your command was supposed to summon a monster in the game to fight the creators that are not in the game, then it seems like you really are dumb. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| 14:36 I want to lick Quinella's armpits! I think it would've been cool if Quinella discovered a way to bypass her failsafe protocol and take over Ocean Turtle. Now that's an ultimate plan to have her revenge against the Gods, aka programmers. |
