Spoiler: ...

Didnt feel pacing was any problem though, personally. Series gonna have more time skips be it years or months soon up front. Asuna's entrance was pretty.

Which part cut off? o.o

 

[ZeroX57]

1st episode was interesting. 2nd episode was beast altough it's still just the 1st floor boss. I will be expecting alot from this epic anime :D

 

[Kou]

Go read LN readers' post/opinions lol. They are everywhr.

 

[Terumi]

^ Implying I didnt read.

Though I am link-less and clueless.

Ah well.

Thank you for the tip-off. I must admit I didnt read the extra chapters (yet), since I only have the original copies with me.
I apologise to all for my rudeness and misunderstanding.

 

[Coolio]

I was about to write something about that too. Don't get too fast on commenting there teru. Lol. Anyways, loving the eps and great summaries teru. :)

Spoiler: ...huh..

>Read that side story
>Amused
>Figured I'd try reading other side stories
>Notice 'ch 16.5' have Mature content tag.
>Wondered what sort of mature content is this (like gory death scene?)
>Read one hawt sex scene.

DID NOT EXPECT THAT ' . '

Now I am left wondering what, if at all, will they do about that one...left it out? Do those 'here, have a look at something else' camera angle?

My posts are tasteless. Been holding back or else you will see walls of fanboying.

Less than 1 day to episode 3... Tonakai...

/me prepares tissue

even if eps.2 was explained in the side story, but the timeline is different from the LN, the stuff like someone who want kirito's sword was missing. I was dissapointed somehow

 

[Terumi]

Spoiler: episode 3

Didnt cry as hard as I expected, but that timed-message record crystal and Sachi's parting words to Kirito still made me drop tears. One part was great job to Hayami Saori-sama for that great portrayal of Sachi, even for its one episode. Capturing her fears and emotions at the canal scene was important, although it was probably indirectly her death flag.

Other parts still remain very emotionally driven, like Kirito's despair at the deaths right in front of the people he promised to protect, that scream when fighting Nicholas (Christmas secret boss), and that aftermath after obtaining that much desired revival item, to only find out of its conditions. Its been well long enough (6 months) after that trap that led to the guild's demise. I can only imagine Kirito's hurt from being trapped with that whirlpool of emotions which included him lying, Keita's words and suicide and his failed responsibility/promise to himself. I thought they had cut off Keita's scene after seeing the time skip, thankfully it was still there.Very critical episode in Kirito's character development phrase. A major factor on why he remains solo, rejecting all company.

Loving the timeline and status report sentences whenever the time skip. Christmas indicates the 1 year and 2 months into the game. Level 70 already.

Scilica next week~

It might be a little bit out of topic. Does anyone know where kirito gets tha black sword. It was already in his possession when he meets lisbet the blacksmith with the second LN

that thing didn't explained yet. if I didn't wrong kawahara reki want to explain it in LN's side story.
And there are anyone who notice gender change in episode 1? the novel said that was impossible right? that was possible, but it will make some inconvenience and the developer remove the feature in beta test.

[YoichiMiles]

It's pretty sad about the delays they put on SAO because of the Olympic Games. I don't even watch that Dx

 

[Stormcroe]

loved the novel and the way this anime is going it is probably going to be more than 24 eps winning

 

[Slayn312]

Did they show how Kirito got the Anneal Sword/Blade? I seem to skip to ep. 3 and just start from there.

If SAO have only 12-13 episodes.. i think it'll be nope.
Hmm i wonder about kirito get elucidator from defeating boss..

Spoiler: Ep. 4,5,n 6

Ep. 4 The Black Swordman - story about how kirito meet silica, i think.
Ep.5 Elizabeth the blacksmith~
Ep.6 Back to Asuna!! XD

 

[Slayn312]

[MENTION=10379]Neko[/MENTION] Well i went back watch the first two ep. So how come they show Aria of the Starless Night as ep. 2 which is a side story but wont show how Kirito got the Anneal Sword/Blade which is a side story also plus it happen at the start of the when they were trap in the game and when he left Klein to get to the next villages.

Idk what the SAO's publishment thinks so far.. and if SAO was really 12-13 eps, then the episode won't be enough to explain full of Aincrad side story. However the full story of kirito on aincrad will you get on SAO : Progressive (this year - fall)

Really.. i hope SAO will release in 24-26 episodes XD

 

[Selvaria Bles]

well that gives time to watch 3 episodes today, so far read the manga for this....

 

[Neko]

Yeah.. this week we won't be able to watch SAO.. sigh
Episode 4 and 5 will release on 4 Aug coz of delayed broadcast..

 

[Selvaria Bles]

it sucks but I cause what can you do.

but I want to start reading the light novel this week but I might aswell wait for them to finish translating it.

 

[Terumi]

SAO has been already slated for 2 cours.
