| Yuuki asking asuna to marry her was so hawt 8/10 |

| Asuna finally figured out to stop pretending and just take action. As Yuuki said just say whats on your mind and if they hate you they hate you :). Very touching episode. I can relate to the whole situation of someone being happy for me being happy. I love how they mixed in some jokes with all the feelings. Asuna and her mother calling each other heavy was pretty funny. You need to be the wife or my name will be Yuuki Yuuki best line ever lol. |

I'm sure the anime will end with the scene of The arc is not over... not yet... |
| I liked the episode, it was nice. Finally Asuna's mom opened up |

| Great episode. I get the feeling episode 24 will be a big hit to the feels. 9/10 for me. |
| Lame and boring. |
  |
| thank you yuuki my ass, it's thank you lord kirito. While Other anime is waiting for season confirmation and Some even didn't know if there will be another season of it although the series is just a half (not even half) of the story and a damn cliffhanger.. Here sword art online company announced that there will be the third season of SAO but oh well it was a good episode, too bad its too side tracked. |
| Just so many awkward scenes throughout the whole series and season has had even more. |
 |
| This is probably the first episode that I realized how amazing the ending song was... Anyone have a date on when the ending song will be released? A good development arc for Asuna, but it just feels like it's arc after arc, so I can't help but feel a whole arc meant for Asuna's development feels out of place when it should be throughout the show as a whole. There isn't a sense of coherence when each arc it's like, "let's focus on these two/three characters and sort of shut out everyone else." Nonetheless, I'm actually really happy with this season of SAO since the pacing's perfect and it's more character-driven, but it doesn't go beyond being a faithful adaptation. |
tummer said: Well, I can honestly say that I liked this a lot more than the previous episode. It was still manipulative has Hell at various part, but I can say that it actually was enjoyable. I especially liked the stuff with Asuna's mom towards the end. While Asuna's argument made absolutely no sense onto why it should affect her mom, just the way that it was set up just made it work. I just kinda wish that they didn't make her mother look like a complete tyrant this entire arc. Yes, she's strict, but she does it in a sense of love, and the show just expresses it like she lives to see Asuna suffer. All in all, it was a good episode. It's not great, but it's certainly better than last week. I thought Asuna's argument made sense. Her mother gave off hints that she didn't really respect her parents because they weren't successful etc. All this time her parents were happy their daughter made it in life. I imagine Asuna's mother didn't even visit/talk to her parents much later in life. Even so her parents told Asuna that she always had a place to come to. Asuna learned that people can live happy knowing the ones around them are happy. This showed Asuna has matured a little imo and had a sense of direction she wants to take in life. Asuna wants to support and make people happy which in return will make herself happy. Asuna's mother saw she has taken a small step into a life path(basically deciding on a sense of direction she wants to take in life). At least that's how I see it. |
| I think this episode is just too overacted. |
| yeo |
Reyxe said: It's already out, you can find it on the internerdz~ also, the full version hits hard the feels. You're quite right. I always assume it's not out when it's not on youtube, but I guess it was already removed long time ago. Sanks mang! |

I'm sure the anime will end with the scene of Arc's not over yet and they won't end this season with that scene. If they were planning on doing that, they would have ended this episode with While this is not a place for it, its pretty likely they will |

WesCoP said: It was nice to know more about Yuuki and see the problems of Asuna be solved. I look forward to next week episode, because i do not read the manga. It's a novel, tho haha |
 |
| this was a fantastic episode, exactly how i remember it from the LN. However...this is as far as i got... the next episode is gonna be all new to me.... We all know whats coming but god damn i don't want it to happen... |

| That conclusion is so unrealistic. Yup, I shed a tear, now you don't have transfer! |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Heartwarming episode :') Great to see Asuna come to terms with her mom. |
Confucius said: That conclusion is so unrealistic. Yup, I shed a tear, now you don't have transfer! Not sure how it was unrealistic. Asuna really had no goal in life until now. She was confused about everything and now she has a sense of direction. Her mother noticed this and I imagine was happy inside. Her mother is still pushing her but not as hard and gave her some leeway. |
Confucius said: That conclusion is so unrealistic. Yup, I shed a tear, now you don't have transfer! I agree. It was quite underwhelming how relatively 'easy' it was to convince her mother after how much hype this arc has gotten. |

| Well its almost over and even if this arc adapted well i think it didn't go well since its almost over the ending will probably suck watched SAO for VR fighting scenes and they pretty non existent. |
 |
| Oh look a wild Sinon |

| <333333333333333 Asuna finallly overcame her weaknesses and decided to make a move, to make a decision she feels is the best and live for what she loves to do. Make that YUUKI YUUKI happen, please, sounds too cute! <3 Fuck it, next weak last episode. It's going to ruin my Christmas.... |
Symqn said: Well its almost over and even if this arc adapted well i think it didn't go well since its almost over the ending will probably suck watched SAO for VR fighting scenes and they pretty non existent. Well I would drop the show then because that's not what the series is about. Fighting is not the goal of the show at all and only happens when needed. |
| Oh, also There are no words to describe THIS, so i'll let ma penis to speak by itself: Also some, I think we see Yuuki face irl for the first time: This scene reminds me Madoka Magica so much (Sayaka scene), it somehow gives me shivers. Yuuki once again seeking someone she loves, but cant reach, still smiling tho: |
| Young Asuna is a cutie. :3 IMO they should attempt mind uploading—what Kayaba did to himself—on terminally ill patients like Yuuki right before they die. I got that it's a risky procedure, but the concept has already been proven, and just needs to be perfected. |
| Dat OST. It really helps with the feels. (T_T) Awesome, Yuuki's using the camera Kirito was developing to see the school. Lol, Yuuki Yuuki. So Yuuki is development for Asuna. Lol at Yuuki and her mom. They're making fun of each other's weight/fat. Yes Asuna, that's how you convince your mother! Hit her emotionally! Since the next episode is Mother's Rosario, I think that might be the end of the arc. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| As an anime episode this was OK but, like so many previous episodes, this isn't the Sword Art Online I fell in love with. |
| Lame! The second half was so lame. Where is Asuna from SAO arc? Stong-willed, brave and independent. And now that, a weak, cowardly little girl, a sad excuse for a person I wanted at least one NO or something like that, "no mother this is my life". In the end Asuna didn't win anything, her mother just "allowed" her to continue for now! |

Like any other girl, even Asuna, were used to develop Kirito, Yuuki is development material for Asuna itself, lol :P |

And now that, a weak, cowardly little girl, a sad excuse for a person Asuna was never any of those things in reality. The whole point of this arc was to show that she was using virtual reality for escapism rather than facing her challenges. But now a little bit of SAO Asuna is bleeding into her real personality. |
| I was expecting for Yuuki to die on this episode. Looks like she will die on the next one, that's gonna leave an harsh flavor on the mouth :/ Asuna's mother was quite cute on that ALO avatar. The moments with Yuuki at school was sweet. |
| First of all, the music guys. The music is so relaxing, so BEAUTIFUL. Very well-made, simple, soft and touching music. Congrats Yuki Kajura (another "Yuuki" too haha...). I liked it very much how Yuuki was introduced at school. She was accepted even if she is seen from a computer eye or something. I also liked the introduction of the story, which was read by Yuuki. The story actually really exist (http://tonygonz.blogspot.ch/2006/06/truck-akutagawa-ryunosuke.html). Her mother still remains strict and severe, and I don't like this attitude very much to be honest. But at least the trip inside ALO made her become a little bit milder, bringing memories back, the feelings, so that Asuna can remain at school. Yuuki did good telling Asuna that she has to express her feelings to her mother. So now there is only one episode left.. Oh damn it!!! And the following arc is sill not finished, so it will probably last a LOT of time waiting for SAO 3. 1. By the way, anyone knows if there is going to be a fifth Arc? Is Kawahara still writing on SAO or will it finish after the 4th arc? I have no information to this, that's why I'm asking. 2. A more detailed question about the last episode. If the quesion must not belong here because it is part of the last ep, I apologize, I don't know the rules. So the doctor said that Yuuki is fulldiving since three years. How can it be possible, if SAO was the first VRRMMORPG? Because now 2 years and some months have passed, so Yuuki must have been diving before SAO. Did I miss something? I have no LN or Mangas here in Europe. Would be glad if someone could answer my question, so that I have the logica again. Pm is also fine. I forgot... Great episode! I'm sad mates that it is going to end. You are not alone with the feel :) |
