Meh, the story still feels mediocre but I have to admit that the action is better especially with Suzuki this episode. Plus, the monsters in PSO2 world actually looks like legitimate threats.

Hmm I feel like perhaps Suzuki and the MC got along better as well.

So Itsuki was fighting great till he found one that was stranger then him and he immediately grows scared of them.
I thought he was overreacting a bit.
Bit he managed to overcome his fear and save Aika.

It would have been a good plot if the darker decided to kill Aika ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I think I'm starting to like this show, even if I still don't understand why some scenes are in 3D

Itsuki is fighting so hard in this episode.

So many Darkers are targeting Itsuki!

Me too, obviously the vessel has to be someone important and Rina is perfect.

If you mean at the end, that was rage dance, a gunslash PA.

Though, yeah, using sword PAs like overend and sonic arrow... maybe he has a sword that looks exactly like his gunslash? Or it's a sword and gunslash camo... <-<;;

i saw they made a shitp in the ending :D
time to sail it i guess XD
tbh, i like the concept or the story. not the way they make the story, but the story itself. i bet this series would look better if they think more about the plot, execute the story in a different way(lower the SoL scene and fanservice) and make some improvement in the action and animation. i mean, CGI/3D doesn't really fit in this series. Good fight : this episode, that battle at the ending, the didn't use any CGI/3D and that looks better or cooler than before imo. i hope they won't use it again...

Aika and Itsuki starting to become better friends. I'm liking where the story's going, even though it took many episodes to get here.

Aika x Itsuki

Rina just doesn't seem all that interested in Itsuki. I did like Aika's laugh at the end, quite charming in my opinion.

So Itsuki gets beat up after he sees a Darker stronger than him but not just that he seemed scared and lost control each when he saw it. He got overconfident and thought that he could take on anything with his new power.

Then he goes all serious and destroys the Darker with some flashy move that made him attack numerous times.

Itsuki piques your power and begin to gain confidence in their strength, until is beaten and humiliated, I like how even though he being the protagonist with great force yet but shows some weaknesses, and in the end he stands and finally wins his fear, and now getting closer to Aika, I'm curious to see the outcome of this love triangle that is forming ..

The pacing felt off in this episode but it was still pretty decent

I really like the fact that now the Darkers can learn and evolve so I'm looking forward to seeing more threatening ones

Also, I have a feeling that maybe the Darker leader will probably end up using Rina as his vesel :(

My thoughts exactly... all the episodes before this were just crap for 5 year olds who don't know what a MMO is.

The Darkers are targeting Itsuki now, and he fought good this episode, but he was overreacting. And he looked good with blue hair tbh

Episode quite nice, the position of Itsuki-san, after recent events, is strengthened and more multifaceted, a character much more complex than you might first think. Quite charmingly the plot after the latest revelations. Drawings and animations about average in quality.

I laughed so hard at hearing Dark Falz, since the german word Falz means fold.

Aika's boss seems fishy, with insisting to let Itsuki fight and all. I have the feeling, that he connives with the Darkers and wants Itsuki to attract more of them.
