| I hope Kirito ends up Telling her that He was in SAO so she can know how beast he really is, but being in sao wasn't something to be too happy about with the whole "you have to beat the game to log out" ordeal, oh well now we wait for next week :) |

| Another slow episode, but I didn't mind. It was fun to see Kirito and Sinon shopping for guns. And Kirito just being the Gary Stu he is by winning that game on his first try. |
| Pacing of this season is absolutely terrible >_> |
| I liked the episode and I like the pacing, even though it slow its better than last season. This is a show that you should watch after all episodes are released. |

It was explained in the novels that he received training in SAO and ALO with similar enemies that would should arrows, venom, magic, etc." i was watching the anime and not the novels.anyways im done with this show once again. bye Great counter-argument you got there. |
 |
| 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. |
 |
| Kirito was shocked in his appearance. OP Stats. Sinon really knows a lot about guns. |
 |
| Yup, it was fun :) |

| Is it gay if I fap to Trapito? |
Takuan_Soho said: Another perfectly decent show, a little action at the arcade to show off why Kirito can operate in the game and to break up the necessary data dump that this episode required. Clears the way to focus on action the next way. And we already know what the haters are going to say about the arcade, so lets clear it up now to spare all of us from having to read 150 posts saying the same thing: Kirito could beat the game because it was a game based on SAO (through the world seed). He also has the help of watching a very good player lose before him, giving him an idea of how the game operated. 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). Overall series is holding at a steady 8, nothing that is great, but nothing that detracts. Just nice entertainment. I say that this episode is very good...and by this episode it explains and it show to the viewers how experience is kirito in adapting things...since he has learned many things from his previous experiences on the last 2 arcs... and you explained well the circumstances in these episode's scenario...well haters are still gonna hate even if you explain it properly to them... 8/10 on this episode <3 it... |
Got something to live for, I know that I won't surrender, A warrior of youth, I'm taking over, a shot to the new world order I Am Bulletproof. . .  |

|
| I liked this episode. Heck, even my little brother did and he tends to dislike everything which I watch. I wonder when Kirito is going to confess about his white lie by the way~ |
| Good episode , they finnaly get in CGO. Trap kirito and that guy that speaks english was actually really fun. |
| Lol great episode, finally. The story's picking up! |
 |
| I really don't like how Kirito is OP in every game he starts. Fuck that! |
| A GGO lightsaber... even makes same noises. 150k? Shut up and take my money!!! |
| Yay Jesus is there to be Overpowered again. But to be honest, the episode was quite enjoyable. |

Kerozinn said: here we go! he is playing the game for the very first time and beats that Cowboy with zero knowledge of the game where other players have failed how many times? there is absolutely nothing that can explain this and im not buying any of the excused posted before this. Dude there is obviously an explanation for this: the force |
antonn said: Trapito? lol XD XD Good episode, I bet Sinon will be a "bit" angry when Kirito will tell her the truth XD |
SetsukoHara said: I really don't like how Kirito is OP in every game he starts. Fuck that! Yeah because you ignored the reason why he was OP. |
|
| Loved this episode. Nice to see him finally entering the game and learning about it's world. Feels refreshing, new and exciting. Can't wait to see more of this anime. |
 |
| i totally thought that kirito have female char in this game, but it's a male char? o.0 at last, kirito's inside ggo and accidentally (or fate?) meet shino, can't argue about how cute shino when riding the boogey (or buggy? that motorcycle) with kirito, and just how much game have kirito played? he said he also play racing games? does kirito have to say "it's a little lighter" when he want to buy a sword? i think he said that too when buying sword at liz' :3 |

| Is it just me or did kirito seem slower in this season than the last season. I mean it took him like 3 seconds to sprint 10 meters. |
| someday we may forget the Manga/Manhwa we have read the the Anime we have watched or the Vocaloid we have listened to but we will NEVER forget how they were there for us when no one else was and inside we will always be OTAKUS |
| After watching the episode I realized they didn't put the Star Wars reference. Why didn't you put in A-1? It would've been funny. |

 |
| Mixed feelings about this episode. The animation was flawless, but the pacing was so slow. The lightsaber made the actual noises, what is good. Futhermore, i really hope this will be beter. So far it isn't so good as is had hoped for |
| The phantom sword had lightsaber sound effects, someone call George Lucas. |

| Wowowowowowowow. Finally!!! An amazing non-suspenseful dialogue episode! Not only that, we got to see more of how awesome and epic Kirito is. It was hilarious from the start that he had a girl's avatar and that everyone that he was a girl. If i didn't know he was a guy i would have also that that he looked like a really good looking girl. Other than that, winning that lottery thing was just awesome. Can't wait to see Sinon's reaction when she finally finds out that Kirito isn't a female. lol. Next episode will be awesome. Can't wait to see more action. This episode was just as expected, and just as awesome. 5/5 from me for this episode. |

| Jedi Master Kirito the Trap!!!!!!!!! I thought that I was going to hate the fact that he was going to use a Lightsaber but him getting a pistol is good enough for me Plus I cant hate on Kirito...His skills are just amazing to see, and everything he did in this episode was just badass and cool >inb4 Kirito x Sinon Yuri pics xDD |

Wasn't the sound effect a nod to Star Wars? *voosh voosh* I was talking about the way he described it in the VN. I rushed up to the showcase. Now that she mentions it, it strongly resembles the weapon in an old science fiction movie that the knights who protect the order of the universe wielded. |

| Good episode. +1 for all the horny male teenagers looking at him! |

I actually didn't mind this episode that much. It was a nice introduction to the GGO world and was blissfully devoid of any unnecessary fanserivce [ or, rather, looking back on it, I don't think there was any fanservice ]. However, there were some questions and some things that irked me slightly about this episode. Firstly, do you not get to choose your avatar, or is it formulated to stick close to what you actually look like in real life? If the latter is true, then it appears as though everyone in GGO is a washed-up old man, and it also doesn't account for Kirito having a female avatar. However, I did take note of the guy who talked about what kind of models of avatar there are, which makes me think that perhaps not everyone is a scruffy man, but instead, that kind of avatar is the most common default, while ones like Sinon's and Kirito's are more rare. I was also questioning the effectiveness of a melee weapon in what appears to e a world where everyone has ranged weapons. Though...it did work for the Jedi ;P So maybe it will work for Kirito, considering that he's more used to fighting with a sword-like weapon and style. I just think it would be pretty difficult to evade all the bullets and get close enough to kill somebody- however, I guess Kirito proved that it was possible when he beat the casino game [ his run was op, though ]. Speaking of being over-powered, clearly Kirito still has that Gary Sue-can't-take-me-down ability and I'm guessing we'll see him constantly "die" and be resurrected throughout this game [ i.e. maybe he gets shot by Death Gun but because Kayaba hax he is able to stay alive and kill Death Gun ]. But even despite how much I dislike him as a character, he seems a lot better in this game, in terms of attitude. He actually enlists help of others. There are things that he doesn't know. This is heavily outweighed by how many times he triumphs with no seemingly realistic explanation, but still, it helps to balance it out even in the slightest. But I do suppose, after you play a game for a long time, you would be really good at it. I've played a few MMORPGs and just simple RPGs throughout the very short time I've been on earth, and it is true that once you've played for a long time, you can amass enough skills and money to make you undefeatable by most. That's why I have a difficult time with Kirito. I think his character could be more realistic if he had his weaknesses, and if he considered the help of others. This is why I felt like this episode portrayed him a tiny bit more realistically, since he enlisted Sinon as a guide, acknowledged that she had aided him, and, from what I saw, didn't appear to be so great with using a gun. |

| I honestly love this episode ! Since the music played at the beginning, I've had a feeling that this is gonna be a funny one. For the first time in SAO II, I actually laughed :D Sinon is so cute, and so is Kirito xD The story was alright, and they add little things here and there from the novel, which makes it better. The BGMs are also nice... I'm so looking forward to the next episode :)  Cute Sinon :3 |

| Finally we got to GGO, I think they postponed it a bit. Can't wait for next week. |
 |
| Really liked this episode despite not liking SAO that much. Idk if anyone noticed but when this guy put his hand on that device it said Cancel and Paied. is this supposed to be a mistake or does paied actually mean something without me knowing about it? I think it was suposed to be Paid. Correct me if im wrong. |
| Anyways, a thing to keep in mind: Kirito obviously has incredible stats compared to most in GGO. Why? His account was converted meaning that his stats that he built up over the past couple of years are intact in GGO. I don't understand how people are getting angry about Kirito dodging bullets. Btw, IT'S A GAME. IT'S A F***ING GAME. How can people criticize GGO using physics? The freak?!! Those comments about "Oh Kirito can't dodge bullets. How does one dodge bullets from a freaking gun?" It's not the real world. Our world runs on physics. Their world runs on stats. 'Tis true that the velocity of the bullet from a certain gun and other things are constant, but because of stats, players can percept and move quicker like Kirito. Also, if that's not enough, Kirito literally said that he predicted the gunfire and this was confirmed when he looked into the cowboy's eyes. You know what? Forget it. Damn so stubborn. I don't mind criticism, but you're not even criticizing something worthy to be criticized. Fudge, the cowboy incident made fine sense. Here are some things I might mention if I were trying to criticize this episode: Why the labers? Come on: it's a gun game! Geesh. I mean I understand they are applicable, but it kind of ruins the integrity of the game. I mean, you're not going to put in swords in call of duty lol. Shino was kawaii. Too kawaii. You'd better stop making me like her more than Asuna. Oh that cowboy sprint looked freaking short; they should have made it look like 30 meters |

|
| Finally into the game. Its better than the previous episodes. Finally getting the game mechanics. |
 |
| That was a great episode. The pacing is killing me so much, I just wish I could watch all the episodes in one day. It seems like wherever Kirito goes, the odds are on his side. |
-Riptide- said: tl;dr Kirito is god. Eh I don't think it was that long; at least I organized it decently :P |
| Here come the "why is Kirito so powerful" BS again. In SAO he was a beta tester and cheated by getting a head start, in Alfeim the players didn't have the life or death experience he had and in GGO Kirito transferred his stats and he has all his life and death experience not to mention his TOP CLASS REFLEXES. Sinon x Kirito already have a lot pics out, in 2 days it's about to explode XD antonn said: Is it gay if I fap to Trapito? It's fine, I already fapped ;) |
