I am bracing for Sword Art Online, just waiting for the pain to arrive.

 

[ckohler]

So like

what if the other Michiko was actually nice and didn't wanna sell Hatchin into slavery?

She called them "merchandise".

 

[BatDan]

They're on freakin' Season NINE of Big Bang Theory?!

I don't get it either...

 

[Crocodile]

Seriously though I feel like the finale of this episode is what I've been expecting since like episode 3... I wish it didn't take half the series to get to this point

You can make an argument that this should have happened sooner but Episode 3 seems way too soon for a moment like this to feel organic or earned.

 

[Mizerman]

wow, an episode that wasn't boring. Time for the real star of the lineup!

One Piece isn't on yet!

 

[Hellwarden]

That episode had Dandy in more ways than one...

 

[UltraGunner]

MEMES JACK

 

[B-Dubs]

Ugh I was on a high but now I'm reminded that SAO is next. Maybe it will be decent for most of its runtime like the last episode was?

That mom thing is due to come back around soon. No way in hell does it wind up decent.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

She called them "merchandise".

No I mean like what if the circus was totally fine and real Michiko showed up and Hatchin told her to fuck off

 

[BassForever]

Michiko hasnt totally turned a corner but showed enough devotion to let hatchin (and the viewers) give her a second chance

Did she though? She was basically the lesser of two evils in that scene... and this is the exact same stunt she pulled to save Hana during the coliseum scene.

 

[Regiruler]

Wait, how did Rita never get sold into slavery? Since she was part of an act with the guy last episode?

Her guardian/faux boyfriend striking a deal, maybe.

 

[BatDan]

... So they're now using old dank memes to try and get us not to smoke.

I need some weed.

 

[foxuzamaki]

M&H pulling in majority of toonamigaf now

 

[Gucci Messiah]

these anti-smoking commercials are so awful they make me want to pick up a carton of cigs

 

[Raxus]

Remember when last SAO wasn't half bad?

yeah...

 

[BassForever]

You can make an argument that this should have happened sooner but Episode 3 seems way too soon for a moment like this to feel organic or earned.

Okay it didn't have to literally be episode 3 but you understood my point of it needing to happen sooner

 

[Hellwarden]

 

[Dedication Through Light]

They're on freakin' Season NINE of Big Bang Theory?!

*laughtrack plays*

 

[ckohler]

Previously on SAO II....

 

[Mizerman]

these anti-smoking commercials are so awful they make me want to pick up a carton of cigs

They're about as subtle as a brick to the face.

Hell, even a brick to the face is more subtle than those TRUTH commercials.

 

[grandjedi6]

Final prediction: she's dying of an unknown illness

Epic twist would be if she's her mom

 

[Grexeno]

Still waiting on the mom-induced disconnect at the worst possible time.

 

[Regiruler]

They're all vampires

 

[UltraGunner]

Maybe she's busy with the real world. You remember what that is right Asuna?

 

[Shard]

Too late for that Asuna.

 

[Schadenfreude]

WELL MAYBE KEEPING SECRETS ISN'T THE BEST IDEA, MORONS!

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Oh boy here we go

 

[Gucci Messiah]

2 minutes in and I'm already pissed off

 

[ramoisdead]

Now I miss Space Dandy. When is that re-running? Especially Season 2...

 

[Doctor Decimate]

I thought that was just because they weren't characters

 

[foxuzamaki]

Did she though? She was basically the lesser of two evils in that scene... and this is the exact same stunt she pulled to save Hana during the coliseum scene.

Michiko is never suppose to be a goody two shoes, she is a flawed character, but she has alot of humanity and being the lesser of two evils is just the point really, she still cares for hatchin despite the baggage she carries.

 

[B-Dubs]

Final prediction: she's dying of an unknown illness

This is totally gonna be it.

 

[Zonic]

"The truth is......we got this horrible thing called JOBS, & we can no longer have the time to play MMOs"

 

[grandjedi6]

Yuki is also Death Gun. Everyone is Death Gun.

 

[GaimeGuy]

They are all terminally ill and too chicken shit to say anything, aren't they?

 

[Raxus]

All my friends are logged out :|

 

[BassForever]

Now I miss Space Dandy. When is that re-running? Especially Season 2...

On adultswim.com toonami stream

 

[BatDan]

Just fucking tell her!

I hate this trope. Just talk!

 

[Regiruler]

You know, vampires would be stupid enough of a twist to be interesting, so that isn't it

 

[lazybones18]

already bringing the feels. poor Asuna ;_;

 

[Soulflarz]

loool

 

[Shard]

This is one of those narrative conventions that just don't really work since real people don't act this way.

 

[Crocodile]

What's the point of making friends if you push them away when they get close? Silly SAO and its attempts at drama.

 

[UltraGunner]

This whole dramatic scene is undermined by the fact that this is over video games

 

[Schadenfreude]

Is this the school for SAO dummies?

 

[skLaFarebear]

Maybe I should finally pick up Destiny.

 

[BassForever]

Damn auto focus

 

[Zonic]

HE BROUGHT YUI TO SCHOOL??!?!?

UUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Regiruler]

Who are these people

Oh wait, are they the RL version of the arem

IS THIS WHERE AI YUI GOES SKYNET

 

[zedreamcast]

FUCKING STOP WITH THE DADDY SHIT JESUS.
