| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Tbh, I like this new OP song as much as the first one. As expected, we got more development into the story as Kirito and Eugeo aims for Central Cathedral. Action was actually pretty decent for the first half. I suppose Eugeo improved a bit since he last fought. Kirito and Eugeo are still such good friends and partners in their adventures heh |

| That's fast. They found their swords. New OP. It sounds a little bit like one of the old SAO songs (at least at one point it does sound like LiSA's song). That red knight with arrows that appeared in last battle. He claims that talking about past is evil spell because they don't have past. Eugeo guy found something to entrust to his ice sword and won against fire arrow. He approved them (proper skill, not evil) and told them that there are stronger enemies waiting with the order to kill the two. Eugeo guy just remembered that he is the one who captured Alice girl long ago. Main guy said that memory was deleted. He seems to have memory of someone besides him with the pairing ring, but memory of that got deleted, too. Taking a break before reaching that problematic 50th floor. Two girls are their enemies next? New ED is nice as well. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Just saw the new OP and I must say that I'm hyped to see that there's tons of interesting fights coming (Especially since it looks like Kirito is gonna get fucked up lol) BUT, I was saying to myself during it all how I'm gonna miss the handshake but they kept it :DDDDDD And that extra high five at the end gave me life lol xDD I think I like this one equally with the first but I do miss Lisa though :( |
| Amazing episode. The fight between Eugeo and Deusolbert was so great. The new Opening sounds amazing, can't wait to see all the fights.. The new Ending is also great, kinda sad.. Can't wait to see next episode |
 |
| Good episode again. The new OP and ED are nice, I like the ED more. The fight against the Crimson Knight was really cool, Eugeo really pulled through. I think a little too much time was spent explaining to the Integrity Knight what was actually happening given that we the viewers already know at this point, so it felt like too much rehashed information. They could've cut some dialogue there and probably spent it on something else in my opinion. I'm interested in knowing what Euego and Kirito's full control skills are, I hope they don't keep us in the dark for too long. xD Wonder who the two kids at the end are. |
 |
| As expected of the church's central armory it sure is well stocked. Hmm love the new opening and visuals. The Crimson knight's armament full control art was impressive but so was Kirito and Eugeo's fight against him. Eugeo especially really showed his skills. It was nice that in defeat the knight was able to realize that he was defeated by skill and not vile arts. To think that he was also the knight that took Alice away though. Given that its easy to see Eugeo's thoughts here. I wonder do the knights memories get wiped after being assigned to the cathedral. Looks like Linel and Fizel will be making their entrance next ep. Sold ep that showed well the kind of fights that Kirito and Eugeo will face as they ascend the church. Curious to see what Kirito and Eugeo's armament control art will be like. |

Mattinator95 said: I noticed that too, but like you said, it's nothing the BD's can't fix (But I guess this means that even A-1's Unlimited Budget Works has a kink in it lol)The art animation was a bit off this episode in a few areas but nothing that can't be fixed when the Blu-rays come out for Japan . Plus the animation itself can't be amazing all the time As for the episode itself, it was a nice battle overall, and I loved the teamwork between Eugeo and Kirito as well as seeing Eugeo's sword awaken its hidden ice element Kinda felt bad for the Crimson Knight after seeing how he forgot his wife but I hope that his story ends on a happy note after this and he gets to see her again (What if he's Eugeo's apprentice's dad =o) I feel a bit uneasy about these 2 kids that appeared at the end though, so I hope nothing too bad happens lol....Pretty good episode overall, and I absolutely LOVE this new ED P.S. To all the LN people, was there anything skipped or left out? |
| I like the previous OP more tbh. I like how the magic in this world have those cyber look to them. It make sense because it's all just computer codes and it makes them look unique. |
| The new opening and ending songs were pretty nice. The fight looked really simple honestly, but it was still fun to watch. Kirito trying to convince the knight that you got your memories taken away. Nothing much going on really. Then two little chumps or kids shows up to confront Kirito and Eugeo. |
| Meh didn't like the new OP but the ED was good. As for the episode, the fight was ok but the rest was pretty boring. It felt like almost nothing happened. |
 |
| The action was a bit lackluster, episode was still fine overall. New theme songs are great again, especially the ending. |

Yeah, I'm also feel that..the OP is kinda energetic, but cannot surpass Adamas's power....and it only show the Underworld's characters, so maybe next focus more on them beside outside real world (even Asuna not appear)...but this RESISTER more like OP3, Ignite's style (previous shown Kirito, Sinon & Death Gun, but now Kirito, Eugeo & Alice with fight)....the ED is have high tempo & it new to this series compare to another ED... For the episode is just ok, but hey this is 1st time 2nd cour of sao is direct continuation from previous cour, not like others (Aincrad-ALO,GGO-Calibur & Mother Rosario) |

| The fight in this episode was probably the best this season has had so far, but other than that this episode was slightly frustrating: the fact that the Integrity Knight they fought this time just happened to be the one who took Alice is slightly contrived but acceptable, whereas using him to recap a lot of the Integrity Knight exposition was immensely frustrating to say the least. |
| The opening has many hidden messages, the last 15 seconds have done it in a perfect way, for my part I think it is the best opening that the entire franchise has had. |
 |
| so determination (=someone/something to fight for) is supposed to give them strength in this universe but all the enemies are now without memory (=without loved ones/pride/goal etc) therefore making them weaker? weird design choice but i guess it makes sense if they'll fight outnumbered from now on. (but that 1v2 fight was super unfair) |
| Always nice to find what you want instantly, even when I clean my house up I can't find what I need. Cool we got a nice new opening. Those skills Kirito and Eugeo used to defeat the crimson knight were very impressive, I thought the crimson knight himself was pretty cool with all that fire and stuff. Looking forward to seeing what Kirito's perfect weapon control art is, might be duel wield so he can use starburst stream ect. I think those 2 kids might be there for a fight, will be very interesting to see what happens next time. New ending was decent. |

| Well I guess Aliclization will continue till the end... hmmm thought that Asuna and peeps will intertwine anytime soon |
 |
| Pretty nice episode. The new OP and ED are pretty good. I like them a bit more than the first two we've got. It looks as if the story is starting to actually move along, with Kirito and Eugeo making their way up the 100 floors. The fight they had with the red armored knight was pretty cool too. Wonder what purpose the two girls at the end serve. very excited for the next ep. |
 |
| the new OP and ED are nice especially the ED so they defeated an integrity knight that was also responsible for the kidnapping of Alice but he does not remember obviously im almost sure that Crimson Knight is gonna be an ally of theirs in later episodes |
| New OP is nice, but the new ED is just that little bit better! I thought that the Crimson Knight would be a lot tougher, but if it's true what Kirito said that they have no experience with combo attacks, then this might get interesting. Seems this guy might become an ally at some point. 2 new kids got introduced in the end, with weapons on their back? They might be friendly? I guess we'll see next week :D |
 |
| The new OP and ED sound great, and teased some interesting fights... I have the strangest feeling of those kids being the worst opponent we've seen thus far. Theres always trouble in two's. I would, however, like to see what will become of Deusalbert 'cause there was a heavy inference of being let off. |
 |
| ASCA and ReoNa for the theme songs! What could be more tempting. The show is going full throttle with the plot. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| Another good epsiode! New OP and ED looked really nice! They finally have their won swords, and their new outfit are cool as much as last one! The fight agains Crimson Knight was awesome, After Kirito block his attack Eogeo shined more this episode and beated Crimson Knight, i am glad to see that Eogeo has improved a lot! Curious to see what is theirs full control skill! I wonder who are the new kids that appeared at the end! |
 |
| Old OP and ED is better to me, at least new ED's visual looks better than old one. New OP aren't as informative as old OP or i guess there won't be too many new characters this cour? Animation is nice as usual although the fight was just simple. Just when i don't like how easy they climb from 1F to 50F then suddenly 2 obviously guard lolis appear. |
on 
| i came for new op & ed hmm both new op & ed are nice.. but i still like the old ones |
| Great episode overall. Action sequence is good with some flair of effects. And the OP and ED are good with nice visuals. Next episode is another fight so im excited. |
 |
| That sword spin move was so out of place and silly. Biggest question is where did Kirito get those meat buns and how are they still in perfect shape despite just being in a fight. |
Paul said: That sword spin move was so out of place and silly. Biggest question is where did Kirito get those meat buns and how are they still in perfect shape despite just being in a fight. The sword is nothing new, Kirito used it in the first season. it is even one of his movements in Dengeki Funko Fighting Climax https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1EwQQG9M2s&feature=youtu.be&t=65 |

| New op more fun xD. |

| A really "cool" attack. |
 |
Nope. There's one ED with high tempo in SAO II, No More Time Machine by LiSA |
 |
| Good thing Kirito had his spin move. |
 |
| New episode was pretty good plot and action wise. I like the new ED but I still prefer Adamas for OP. |
| The op song was good, but the visual is not good as previous op. I think the fight could be more epic according to LN, they skip some part of it so i cant say this fight is better than episode 4. And the next episode is the fight im waiting for. If they adapted it well, then it will be the best fight before final battle. A lot of blood bath and intense swords fight, i hope A1 make it more epic than previous fights |
 |
| Couldn't they have taken some shields too? If none of these swordsmen ever wield a shield, why even make them? They really went in on the fire CGI here. Couldn't Kirito just Generate Aquatic Element and douse the flames, or is that not a command in the System Call? And another weapon clash where the winner goes to the guy with the hardest boner. 30 minutes to climb up 20 floors...that's a big tower. I wish Kirito and Eugeo went up the tower Metal Gear style where they have to sneak past guards and stuff. But I guess this series wants to go the direct route where they have to beat up an Integrity Knight to advance to the next floor... |
 |
| That was such an impressive strategy by Eugeo and Kirito in defeating that Knight. That technique by Eugeo was the one that impressed me the most. I guess its fighting little girls time. |

| Music for this season was great mainly the ending ,animation in the OP was good though is this season gonna be a another tower climb or will we get out of it before the end |
 |
| To be honest the the old opening was way better but that dosen't mean that this one i bad, the ending is really good tho. Nice episode, SAO is getting better and i really like that Eugeo is important just like Kirito instead of just him being all the time in the highlights. |
