AiCon said: IchigoHollowfi said: Really?Loved the part in the end when Kirito took off like lighting when he heard Asuna was close by. The emotions on his face.. :') I thought that he was an idiot for even trying that in the first place since he's been told many times that nobody can reach the top because of the time limit and that wall the admins put to prevent people from doing just that. An idiot for rushing in to save your girl? So if someone bigger than you, beats the shit out of your girl, would you stand back and analyze the situation? Oh wait, since that guy is bigger than you, theres no point in confronting him since you'll lose right? Jeez.... Think before you post shit.....The only way people would stand back and analyse the situation before jumping in is if they are not personally and emotionally invested in that situation. Period. I never stated that he shouldn't rescue his girl, nor did did anyone say to Kirito that Asuna was having the shit beat out of her. I merely think that he should come up with a plan instead of doing something so clearly destined to fail since everyone who's tried it has failed. You state that the only people who wouldn't rush in and think of before acting are people who aren't emotionally invested - well I disagree. I know quite a few people who had some serious shit happen to them and held themselves back from doing something stupid. I know of someone who's fiancee cheated on him with some person who she just met and, as much as he want to beat the shit out of both of them, he held himself back. I know of another person who was utterly humiliated in front of his entire class and instead of lashing out and making things worse in front of students and the teacher, he kept it all in and left. So I guess by your statement that these people aren't personally and emotionally invested in those situations. Kirito wasn't even a 100% sure Asuna was there in that tree until a second ago. You don't think he would act out impulsively? How in the world is that idiotic? It would be idiotic and frankly, machine-like if he stood around there coming up with a plan, while god-knows-what is happening to Asuna over there. I never said Asuna was getting the shit beat out of her....I said if your girl was getting the shit beat out of her, wouldn't you respond immediately instead of formulating a fucking plan? Is that so hard to comprehend? |

| idiotic would be not trying to do a single thing when he heard Asuna was right there, above them. Let's imagine a situation, when you were in a single boat, and the one who you truly love was meters away and she was struggling against the sea. You knew that jumping off the boat to save her would risk and cost your life, the question is: Would you do it? Or give up? I'd rather try dying to save her, than sitting there and watch her drown. And, it's a game, you can try to reach the world tree (even every one has failed), there is no risk involved, so why not? |

Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all. |

Or you could row towards her... Life safe boat, you have to jump to reach her. It's a matter of time and if you didn't act quickly enough, she would be dead. Have you ever seen a situation when life guard have to jump off the helicopter to save people? Rather than throwing some life safe rope and tell the victim to do whatever to save themselves? Actually, there is a hollywood movie about life guards, with ahston kutcher and kenvin coster: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0406816/ Have you watched it? |

All I wished that he'd done was to try and come up with something instead of rushing up there knowing that he wouldn't be able to make it up. How bout checking out the base of the tree to see if he could sneak past the guards and climb up there? Because Kirito knows he can do it since he's got the author on his side. That's like the most powerful ability in the "game". |

That's what he will do, but I guess when he heard Asuna was right above him, he couldn't hold his emotion and rushing toward her. And, I didn't see any valid reason for calling that as an idiotic act. There are always bugs in every game you play. In Diablo 3, blizzard announced they would fix the monk exploits but they didn't do it in several months. And judging something as undo-able if someone tells you that you can't do it is an act of idiocy. |

We don't know yet. |
| Laame episode especially when Suguha said that she's in love with her brother. I cried tears of laughter at that part. It's like it was said out of the sake of saying it. No valuable emotions were felt. The brain part was actually informative but rushed and those tentacles were not needed at all. Only part I like is when Kirito told Suguha to turn around cuz I thought he was gonna say "I wanna see your ass" Dropped from 8/10 to 7/10 sadly. Hopefully next few episodes left are better than this. |

I'm guessing I can't change your mind but I'll try one last time.... Listen, all kirito had to go on was the blurry picture Egil handed him. Was it ever fully confirmed that was Asuna? No, it was a hunch and kirito has stated it himself a few episodes ago. Even Yui could not sense Asuna when they were far away from that tree, so Kirito still wasn't a 100% sure whether Asuna is indeed inside ALO or not. If you noticed, he wasnt really rushing to get to that tree either these past few episodes, why? Cause like I said, he didn't know for a fact that Asuna indeed existed in that tree...it was probable from that picture, but wasn't verified for a fact. When Yui finally finally sensed her Player ID, it was proven. It became fact that Asuna is indeed there and she can still be saved. That's the reason Kirito flew off right away without thinking, impulsively....he has already wasted enough time. Got all that? If not, fuck it. I'm done arguing. |
| Aww yeah tentacle rape. |

I'd say ALO is weakest. My friends that have read it say GGO is one of the better arcs, and if they decide to adapt it, they better get a new storyboard director. |

| Tentacles episode ? Amazing episode. |

And thanks for the spoilers:D Most of it follows closely; however as people have mentioned they missed one part regarding some parts, if you read from past pages, etc. They skipped something regarding Excalibur. |

We don't know yet. I believe that Lyfa told Kirito that no one has ever reached the top of the tree since Sugou made the tree so high in the first place. Those people who did that jump on top of each other only got close enough to take a picture. And let's not forget that they already did a patch to prevent just what Kirito is doing. But there are pp who captured Asuna's picture, aren't they? It's worth to confirm whether or not she is the real Asuna. |
| Nice... Slug scientist tentacle-monsters? I wonder what those scientist are into, choosing avatar like that. Why Asuna didn't wait till the monsters leave is beyond me... (I knew about tentacle rape from spoiler, but her not hiding till monster leaves is a bit...) Oh yeah, ssjokg, you're right, they did actually try to make tentacle rape scene look as nice as they could. It took 5 people piggybacking to fly up to the branch, and Kirito just flew up like that... I thought this guy is supposed to be more smart/collected... Now that Kirito has confirmed that Asuna is in the game, his options should be open(notify GM etc, should be able to see quite some drama) from this point on... After he crash into the barrier and calmed down maybe. Leafa cried on Kirito's shoulder, can't say I dislike it, as friends can be made in MMORPG after all. Overall... Yeah... Nothing too much to say about this episode. |

AirStyles said: Nice... Slug scientist tentacle-monsters? I wonder what those scientist are into, choosing avatar like that. I believe it was said in the LN, they chose those, because it's "easier" to do inhumane tests like this with inhumane avatars. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Well, I know that most people will stop thinking rationally when it comes to those situations, Kirito is often depicted as a hothead once in a while. and Lol.. notify the GM, that's like "saying hi, to Sugou" |

| Great episode.Suguha has a broken heart but I am sure she will move on.That green-haired guy is there:P |
 |
| ohh, that last clip was AWESOME! Can't wait for next episode :P |
O'Hai :D |
| lol at cold water to back and tentacle rape scene |
 |
| Those scientists are really dumb. Someone escaped from a place and you put her back in this exact same place without even trying to understand how the fuck she did escape from that place, at least increase the fucking security and hire someone to keep an eye on the bitch. If I was one of those scientists, first thing I would do was interrogating her and trying to find some objects that might have helped her. |

You must have missed the part where they changed the door code. makoa69 said: I wish Kirito was the one who was captured and put in a bird cage while Asuna was the one rescuing him. And you know what? I agree. ALfheim has been my least favorite arc of entirety of SAO LNs and THAT would have actually made it interesting, because Aauna would have something to actually do. A7ac4ma said: Kinda sad that they removed Tonkii's part, it was one of my favourite parts of this Arc, plus what they'd find at the end of it. Gotta animate the tentacles, man, all of them. Seriously I'd rather they removed the tentacle fanservice scene than that. |
