SAO 10
I'm at a loss for words. I enjoyed it definitely but there's some bullshit afoot in them der hills! I have questions that need to be answered damn it!Guildmaster cheater is cheating cheat who needs to go to cheaters' hell! What's up with Kirito asking for sex of the bat! Also, is Kirito going to be labled as murderer now that he killed bitter-dude? The guy who was in the crowd at the ending of Kirito's fight with bitter-dude a few episodes ago, was he in the same secret guild bitter-dude was in... are they after Kirito... and if so why? Was the move Kirito used to kill bitter-dude the same incarnate system from Accel World? I can't believe the bastered accelerated... that pissed me off so bad; SO MUCH BULLSHIT in that!
DON'T THINK THIS EPISODE PROVES ANY OF YOUR POINTS Jarmel! YOU'RE STILL WRONG!
Actually I thought the episode was decent but definitely had some lows. It did address some of the character motivation stuff, even though it was fairly obvious already, but I think it was cathartic for Kirito to actually state outright his feelings. He still very much has some of the Gary Stu components to him but I've seen worse I guess.
A bigger problem with this episode was the villain as it was beyond idiotic. The biggest problem is Asuna and Kirito's relationship. I don't mind the first step they took
sexy time
marriage
As for the fight sequence, it was ok in how it was animated but the movements themselves weren't really that dynamic.
Kirito is essentially banging at a shield without really trying to get around it or using better placement
In short I think they should have cut almost all the side stories and instead focused more time on Asuna's character and her relationship with Kirito. There's a reason why they're side-stories.
People thought it was going to suck and I didn't feel like making an OT again.

Because she's the best.
The subtitle gives it away.

<---lol at the troll smiley... never noticed thatJarmel, I agree with you
r point about the marriage thing feeling rushed and I was supprised Kirito was the one to suggest it thoguh I can see a rational behind it. I think we just missed the chance to see an awesome move which Kirito was building up to due to Heathcliff cheating ways but at least we know he ain't right. I still feel good that the story put a little effort into highlighting that Kirito thought it was weird that Asuna may not want to exit the game. It confirms a lot but the very next line was to large of a swing in the opposite direction. Still, I understand they're desire to rest albeit a bit too perminent sounding

I'll probably get to it eventually. I usually do.
how did I not seeeeeeeeeeeeee it
You make an understandable request, but making an OT would mean having to familiarize myself with the material!
I got nothin' against the love for SAO.

Besides
Making a seperate thread for SAO means it takes Accel World with it and that kind of talk may get you cut (though not by me).
On a totally diffent topic...
How similar is Tamayura to Kokoro Connect? I never got past the first episode but in retrospect, I'm wondering if it could capture the same magic.
Very different shows, at least from my minimal impression of Kokoro Connect.

Yeah, that was amazing. Hype justified. Much has been said on the topic of Brains Base's incredible ability to spin shit into gold in the past couple of days, but the total disparity in all of the elements combined to craft this episode may have made it the best example yet of the studio's shocking ingenuity and ability to create something genuinely entertaining out of virtually any combination of ideas.
Stay golden, Brains Base.
Also, we finally know the origin of the kid in Limbo.

Not really.
It seems well enough crafted and the story isnt ridiculous. The writing is good for what it is.
Accel World actually does have some shitty production but its pretty fun too.

It gets pretty enjoyable once you hit the eps 9 and such, definitely get back into it. Kirito is one of the best protagonists this year.

Of course you weren't.

Nope, that ended a couple of months ago, hahah.
Depends on the reason that you stopped watching.
Isn't is so precious?

Wait, so you're an actual fan of it now?!
Man, this is like all the people secretly watching AW week after week. World shattering!

didn't love it or hate it, was just busy watching other stuff.
AW and SAO are just fun to watch. It's hard not to be entertained whether by anger or just amusement.

I love the way the show still manages to hold together by taking familar elements and doing strange things with them in each episode.
The three gods' appearance in the sandbox was more awesome than I would have realized if told about it beforehand
I love the way the girl to the left of the image above finally looses it <3... and that ending.

I hope i'm not confused... Tamayura is the one that starts with them having the same wish (of flying) and it coming true right? Dude... am I getting that old?

You mean stateside? I know AW BD has Eng subs.
I freely admit that I've gone off the deep end with the show. Even with individual bad episodes, the whole thing is just kind of endearing and comforting at this point. I kind of hate myself for even typing these words!
You'll probably like it, then. I only ask because episode three was where I dropped the show and I didn't know if you shared some of my criticisms or it was just a time management thing.
Whatever way I have to obtain it. Must have both.

You could still make one if you wanted to. Nothing is stopping you.
No one would chat on it. We'd just delegate all SAO discussion to the irc.

The special on it is not subbed.
