| It really does look like every second counts in this episode between the teams. The battle for the cruise ship and tactics made this episode thrilling imo. LLen and the others had to take a huge risk on their own strategies here too. What an episode. It was a mix of battle tactics, psychological drama, and SAO action all mixed into one. |

| ok this season just sucks ass, so sad to see the only good sao get done dirty like this |
 |
| Sealing the holes with the lifeboats was a great idea. Between the rising tide and the holes being sealed it was a nice way to force the initiative on the other teams. The battle to hold the exterior was pretty well done. Cole getting one shotted by the anti mat sure was brital. Damm the boarding of the ship sure changed the nature of the battle substantially. |

| Why does LLENN simply not just use her legs to run around M and shoot the woman? lmao |
 |
| M-san M-san M-san M-san M-san M-san M-san!!! dude, do something!!! |
It would be so easy to deal with this situation by turning back and giving headshot or even throwing a grenade to explode it along with M-san |
 |
| The LMG guys were the best thing of the season. They will be missed. Edit: after finishing the rest of the episode, they weren't only the best thing of the season, they clearly were the only actual good thing of the season. Such a downgrade from S1, specially LLEN having not only walked back all the development from that first season, but going even further. The suppossed SHINC showdown ended with a grenade and a retarded yelling instead of a) using the CQC speed specialist to defeat an enemy without ammo b) turning 180 degrees and letting your teammates shoot the enemy and hit the amored plates you are carrying then c) shooting yourself the enemy instead of turning your head slowly Special mention to fuuka only being shot in the backpack, yet acting like she had lost her two legs against an IED. |

| The machine gun loving team has other priorities in this match instead of actually winning. Not the way I expected them to go, but I can respect their way of having as much fun as possible to the very end. =) Pitohui keeping the floodsafe gates open should make the finale of this battle an exciting one, since everyone will be in a battle against time to win before the ship sinks. I didn't expect her to agree to Ervin's request to save his fellow teammates, although I can't rule out the possibility of her betraying him. As for LLENN's group, they were on the same floor as team SHINC, which led to a rather panicked and messy battle. Fuuka's plasma grenade certainly made it more chaotic, but it did leave poor M at the mercy of being put into a chokehold. LLENN herself did get a little overly dramatic here and the solution to this situation does look rather simple enough. The next episode should show us if the criticism here is fully justified or not. |
| Pitohui is so clever, I like the plans she comes up with. I thought the machine gun team was the mvp of this episode, they were fun to watch. M is in trouble, but why is LLENN just standing there watching? She could have saved him easily in 5 seconds with her speed. |

| This episode just cemented how shit this show became. Completely devoid of logic, even if you try to stretch. Very very very bad Edit: So bad it made me relog on my MAL account after years just to downvote it. |
<3 I loved today episode |
| Half over and, like, no character development, no external plot pushing the narrative, just a battle royal without much happening. |
| The hanging doesn't make any sense. Goushi had everything to kill her with a shot, but well, at least she didn't die quickly. We have to wait for the next chapter to see if she escapes or dies. |
| Thank GOD that I always loved Pito. If my enjoyment was hinged on LLENN this episode I would be done. Cooked. I could not come up with an argument. But I love Pitohui so we carry on. |
| Man this season of GGO sucks so much ass. Clearly the writers forgot LLENN is basically Sonic and could easily run across to take the white-hair woman out before she kills M. |
| This episode was ass lol. Like pretty much anyone that isn't in some way involved with the MC's team just decides they don't want to fight anymore, like the Machine Gun guys. So stupid. LLENN is so dumb this whole season too, she just sits and watches stuff happen while yelling in distress about everything. I've always felt GGO was a nice little brain switch off but god damn there are limits and this episode truly tested them xD. |

Turning 90° would probably be better, that would line LLENN up for a headshot on the Shinc girl without M being in the line of fire.
But yeah, LLENN has speed advantage and even in the narrow corridor should have been able to circle around and use a knife; that was very silly.
| @Mirality I don't trust a P90. I trust even less a game with the opposite mechanic of modern shooters. Here you have a bloom the size of a house until you wait for the shot to align. Better turn 180 and let the bulletproof plates on his back take all the damage, she shouldn't need that many shoots without armor and after getting in close range for the radius of that grenade. |

| Starts the battle inside the big ship!!! kekeke |
| Guess LLENN forgot she had super speed at the end. This season is so shit compared to the first. LMAO |
| I never realized that M had such a shitty response time. When her magazine came up empty, he should have shot her immediately. Don't even get me started on the girls. When she jumped on his shoulders, they should've shot. Wondering if the blast took out the rest of SHINC. |
| Lol, seems like they are going to died together XD |

| I love the boat battle royale and the action that already started (also the guys shooting at each other because it became boring since they beat the "strongest" one according to them lmao that's something you would end up doing with your friends at some point in a game like that). But that ending is weird... Llenn and Fuka while M is getting strangled for 30s and they don't do anything even though they can just move near them to be sure to not miss the target, it clearly doesn't make any sense but well... |
 |
| Oh no, the enemy is out of bullets and is slowly but surely strangle my comrade. Whatever shall I do? Better scream his name a few times and target his face... HOW ABOUT YOU RUN TO HIM AND HELP HIM YOU DONKEY??? Oh my god, I lost some brain cells from this... |
| OH COME ON! What kind of cop out is that with machine gun sqauad? Writer didn't know what to do with them and traitors so MG squad shot them and then each other like for lolz. Weren't this suppose to be grey area for real money? Why would you throw money away by griefing your own squad like that? Well they are ones having most fun I guess and not by ruining it to others, I respect that. Also RIP Shinc. And M. Turn around or something. And calling it, TMT squad will win by late arrival again. |

Every second Fuka is on screen it's an absolute joy for my life ❤️ That shit at the end was hardcore, but why does LLENN always forget she has a knife lmao she could just run towards them and stab her to death lol, I hope my boy M survives, and maybe is the one to win? That would be fun. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Llenn’s been in the game too long to freeze up in a crisis, that just didn’t seem like her. And once the water broke through the levees, the plain should’ve flooded in under a minute, maybe even thirty seconds... |
 |
| I can't with LLENN keep yelling M-san over and over again. Just run to his side and shot that bitch down LMAO That cliffhanger was so stupid 🤦♂️ |
 |
| just shoot her lol what r u doing yelling M 20x at the end |
 |
| Llenn with the big brain strats sheesh to get their teammate in the zone. But bruh, I find it hilarious how Llenn is just standing there there and staring near the end, she could just speedily run behind them real quick to shoot. Screaming "M-San!" 5 more times will definitely help too I think! |
 Never ending plan to watch list... |
