Spoiler:
Anyway I'm a new fan of this anime and really enjoyed it. I was just surprised by the pacing of the first season and how quickly, Kirito and Asuna married each other and then Yui coming in as their child. Also no character development :( I thought all the people Kitori met in his adventure were going to make a guild together and beat the 100th floor together or something like that? Instead it just seemed rushed. I was sadden by that.

It all happened so fast and I was like O.o so I'm wondering if season 2 will be as random as the first? Sorry for talking so much guys. Just so many questions I have.
It was pretty much same in the LN.

It is anime so things like that won't happen. I mean if they were concerned about this Death Gun incident they would have shut the server down so...

That sucks. Well you saved me from wasting my time of reading it. I read the Progressive novel and it's pretty good IMO.

For Sword Art 2, who do you think is Death Gun based on the new characters we've seen?

To be honest, the experience between watching the anime and reading the light novel is different.

You actually get to read why the characters act the way they did, rather than shouting at the screen half the time. Personally, I didn't like A-1's adaptation. Due to the adaptation time crunching, a lot of the internal monologues got cut and you lost half the story in the process. :/

If you enjoyed Progressive, then you'll probably enjoy the source.

Death Gun is...*spoilers*

Yeah when I read Progressive, the beginning chapters gave some nice character development between Asuna and Kirito so it made me enjoy more. I'll take a chance with the light novels. When I watched the first 3 episodes of Sword Art, I was really impressed with it. Then a side story came and it was fine, but then there was another after another and it was getting really redundant. I didn't know that the first arc was only 14 episodes so I expected alot more with this anime. They should of done the 25 episodes with the first arc. So much potential in this anime ruined by a rushed plot :(

Is the arc after Gun Gale gonna be good? I heard Asuna's back. Personally, I liked her and wished they gave her more screen time.

Well Progressive is what SAO would have been if the Author actually went floor by floor. Due to the fact that he originally wrote SAO for a LN writing contest and was constrained to writing only about 100 pages or so, he skipped all the way to floor 74.

So when the series became popular, he had to go back and start filling in the other floors, hence the hodgepodge of side stories.

As for GGO, Asuna barely shows up at all. But around episode 15 or so, the next arc Mother's Rosario will be mostly Asuna and another girl. Kirito barely shows up at all. XD

Wait I thought the arc after GGO was the Underworld one or Aclinization something like that xD. I read a wiki and it gave the list of arc's in order and the Underworld is after or is Mother Rosaroi part of one of those arcs.

Nope. Mother's Rosario (Vol.7) is after GGO (Vol. 5-6) We're also expecting them to animate the Side Stories Caliber and a skipped ALO part about Jotumheimr.

Alicization/Underworld is after that (Vol. 9-15+)

Well... that's the problem of LN adaptations... we know it from OP Protagonist The Animation.

Some people might say that GGO is good because Asuna's not gonna be there...
I like Asuna so I'm not one of them but it depends on perspective...

And Silica still best girl.

Silica is too loli for me.

I'd probably just skip everyone and go to Shino.

But I'm not setting anything down in stone until I get a few episodes of Alice.

I wish we had more background shown in the anime though of her and the rest of the side charcters. We got more background from Shino than most of the cast in season 1.

Asuna will get lots of background next arc. I felt that Suguha got lots of background last season (though its stereotypical bro-con bs)

Amen to that. Wasn't even worth it to have that love in there? Should of had Agil, Lis, Klein, and Sicilla help him find Asuna and yeah you can have Suguha in there without all the love.

I'm glad to hear that GGO might not take up all 24 episodes. Great, so we get Kirito for the first half, and Asuna for the second half. I was afraid that she would not appear much.

If Suguha looked like Fem!Kirito/M9k we'd have something going.
YURI INCEST?!

LOL Kirito totally misled her as being a girl.

Anyways it seems he was looking at the Game Machines eyes when it was shooting bullets. That Laser shotgun in the end was hax tho.

And finally, Kirito brings a sword to a Gunfight, though using a handgun for support kinda makes that point less salient.

May I ask why everyone was like 'omg your character is so rare'? Nothing seemed significantly different?

F-1300 seemed like just a rare female character model while M-9000 is an incredibly rare male character model that looks like a girl. One obtains it by having a large number of play time hours, and since it's a converted account from SAO, that's his starting avatar in GGO.

The games should generate an avatar that is your gender. Since males predominately play GGO, they can't start with female avatars to use for roleplaying and other... shenanigans. Some probably do buy access to female accounts. Or hit up on female players since they know they're female in real life (see Sinon being hit on?). The only way to start with an avatar of your opposite sex would be that the device misread the gamer's brain waves.

I suppose it's a lot like starting the game with a shiny starter.

Thank you for that information. Besides that my impression of this being Star Wars was right :D You got the sword sounding like a light saber and you got Death Gun looking like Dark Vader. Kirito the Jedi Master vs Death Gun aka Dark Vader. xD

This latest episode is by far my favorite of the new season. It felt more relaxing than he past three, especially with the end. I love Sinon's smile :3
