Sword Art Online II

[Satoshi Ookami]

First half was a nice flashback and character building scene with Kirito and the Laughing Coffin raid. That really has come back to haunt him huh.

Dunno if something that didn't happen in the original SAO could be considered flashback...

Second half duel was :heh: Kirito being Kirito. Swooning da gurls.

Almost as swaggy as Tats, right? xD

Umm it was definitely in Volume 6 IIRC. LOL.

SAO as SAO world/arc, not SAO as Light Novel =D

I found it a weird scenario, it seemed to have a huge impact on Kirito but has never previously been mentioned in the anime. Fail-planning on their half, perhaps.

 

[CosmicBlazer]

I wish they expanded more on this with season 1. The idea of PKillers and focusing on them while trying to beat the bosses would have made the plot much better. Hope to see more flashbacks.

So far this season has been pretty uneventful so there isn't much I can comment on. However, I do absolutely adore Sinon and am glad we've been seeing as much of her as we have. Looking forward to her showing up more because she really is more interesting than Kirito and Asuna so far. :'(

Spoiler:

Kirito is godly as usual. Luckily his sudden bullet deflection powers and supreme smarts don't bother me as much as others lol. Would've been nice to see a bit more struggle during the BoB matches though.

Quick question... Have you been watching Mahouka? :D
If you do, no OPness in other anime will ever surprise you xD

 

[derozio]

Kirito. Struggling? Those words don't look good together, ma'am. :p

Although yes, watching Mahouka has made me oblivious to Kirito's stu-ness. He can't ever match Tatstuya. Either way, net quota for month is almost over. Will get it recharged on 17th. Can't watch any more trapirito action till then. :p

I saw people making fun of the scene where Kirito's holding Sinon by her waist all close and saying "I don't fight girls" or something along those lines. There were all sorts of comments like "her ovaries just exploded" or "harem +1" and the like and I found it funny. XD;

 

[Altairis]

It was just such a weird thing to do haha. I felt kinda awkward watching it because they had a couple moments of silence and he just grabs her waist xD

 

[Netto Azure]

Shinkawa got friendzoned hard heh

Nurse Aki is really giving a lot of counseling to Kazuto LOL xD

Anyways nice parallels between Kirito and Sinon. :)

They're really taking this slow and steady :P

 

[Candy]

Not enough Kiriko and Asuna as well as Suguha appeared. 1/10 from me. :<

...Anyway, it's a slow episode and I like it.

This episode:

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

Kiriko has to show off her appeal =D

 

[Netto Azure]

Wow, what a cliffhanger.

I still kinda get surprised that this whole arc occurs in the span of a week.

 

[Candy]

Cliffhangers whoo!

Kiriko being OP and bullet-deflect everything is so amazing. It's too bad that I have to stream. :<

 

[Altairis]

I mean, I know that Kirito had to be really good at the sword in order to survive since he was in the front lines apparently, but he has literally only fought swords before and now he can reflect bullets with apparent ease =/ I don't think I'll be able to get over that haha. And how Sinon and Kirito agree not to kill each other each time they meet.

This week: The talk between Kirito and Sinon. And by the talk, I meant the "I did something unforgivable in the past" one.

I was honestly waiting for this scene to happen, even if I haven't read the LN I knew it'll come out some time soon.

Plus, this episode is full of Sinon in tears.

Isn't that how Kirito builds his harem?
He sees damsel in distress who cries her heart to him, "mou oyome ni ikenai" scene happens so she has to be taken by our brave hero.

 

[Mana1]

Every week I 'drop' this and boredom brings me back :(.

Spoiler:

Sinon was a new character until this week, now she's just one of many. I hate how they devastated her composure so much - even if she was shaken up at first, the whole 'I can't pull the trigger' thing was too much imo.

 

[Sheep]

Finally caught up. Saw the ninth episode then was going nuts because I wanted to see what would happen after and luckily ep10 was already released on the same day. :DD

Spoiler:

Anyways, still like Sinon. Her backstory makes it understandable that she caved in and was too afraid to shoot but I don't want to see that holding her back for more than an episode or two. Last thing I want is for her to end up clinging to Kirito throughout the entire tournament. She deserves better.
