The ultimate cop-out episode. What the ****?!
For starters, what happened to the super tough boss from last episode? We only see how they "somehow" defeated it, with only 14 of them having died. YOU HAVE TO SHOW THAT, dammit.
And then, surely, the worst part: A 100% deus-ex-machina ending. So much bs going on, dunno where to begin. Kirito not dying, when he should. Asuna throwing herself in Kabayaīs attack and being one-shotted - her defense shouldnīt be that much worse than Kiritoīs, and he survived being f*****ing pierced through his body. Then Kirito and Asuna sitting in the sky and expecting to die for real - WHY? Why would they assume that? They just saw a perfectly reasonable Kabaya who spoke to them. Did they really think "oh, and just to screw us, this guy will still fry our brains, even though we beat the game and are still alive right now. Oh well, sucks, but what can you do." Seriously?!
Also, ... you cannot get up and walk after 2 or so years of lying in bed. Not possible. Maybe wouldnīt have granted as pretty a scene, but at most Kirito should have been crawling on the floor.
Walking the way Kirito did after two weeks bedridden in the hospital is about right (after a major surgery anyway). I'd be amazed if he could sit up after two years.Originally Posted by MFauli
It's amazing how you guys can predict what medical science will and won't be able to accomplish in 2022.
I'm amazed the game company is still around after financing the medical bills that they would have been sued for.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Guessing the first 14 episodes are to show the player's addiction to the world. next episode is where they want to go back.
What was up with the yellow light before and in Kirito's eyes during the end of the fight? Is he the One now? We gonna have him bend swordplay?
Pie
I'm such a horrible person. I was snickering during the oh so moving scene of Kirito and Asuna saying their good byes.
Too bad the show isn't ending here. This wreck of an episode would have made a perfect ending for a wreck of a show.
At the very least the dude got a fine barbarian hairdo to reflect his berserk fighting style.
I'm enjoy this - not only I'm enjoying the show as it is because of what it is - but also because you guys are freaking over little things even though that the show is pure science fiction.
At least, they are not out because of the power of love, Asuna didn't sing Kirito into a flying Mecha, Kiritos eyes' didn't have the reflection of a nutshell splitting open ...
In the anime world, you are being faced with a load of crap every single frame - The OP spoils the ending with the first episode, you get flashback, troll arcs, unbearable voice acting, ... let's all be friend and have a beer because in the end we got ourselves a decent half season. Of course, plotholes everywhere - but isn't pointing them out another way of saying you loved it and you just want an OVA remake ?
Been using Gotwoot for anime recommendations for years and never seen so much nerdrage over a show as this (well perhaps The second season of Darker then black). For a show that "sucks balls", according to the general consensus, it's pretty impressive to get twenty-three forum pages halfway through the show.
On another note i'm totallyPS. And no, it's not a troll account
Being, "pure science fiction," doesn't excuse it from terrible characters, bad storytelling, and the frequency of contradicting its own arbitrary rules.
There are a lot of great "pure science fiction" stories out there. This ain't one of 'em.
Also there's almost no exploration of the scifi conceit of the series, as has already been extensively discussed.
EDIT:
Wow the rest of that post is ludicrously stupid.
For everyone that doesn't like the series, this is probably the best stopping point. I doubt you'll find anything you like in the rest.
Unless, of course, you're actually just tsundere for SAO.
I haven't watched the series since episode 10, where I just gave up even watching it to make snappy posts and read the first volume instead.
I thought it's been rocking, this was a good episode too.
I dunno, I think this would have been a better series if this part was stretched out a bit more for more depth instead of cramming everything in a short time frame.
I liked the fast pace. Most animes with a lot of depth also tend to be too drawn out and coupled with filler scenes.
Ha! You've been around for years but you don't seem to have learned a fundamental lesson of the forums. Controversy is probably the second best way to get long passionate threads like this. People can only go around agreeing with each other for so long before it gets boring and they stop posting. No one bothers discussing the merits of Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai because we can all agree that it was nothing special and not worth talking about and move on. SAO on the other hand is a hotbed of controversy with several people thinking the show (or just the source material) is firmly on the the positive side of the scale with opinions ranging from decent to fantastic and several others that think the show (or also the source material) is firmly on the negative side of the scale from lame to garbage. The strength of belief at both poles is what continues to drive this thread's post count up.
Horrible Subs - Episode 15
-----------------------
Incredibly ... how an author can choose such an interesting setting and then take a gigantic dump on it all.
I donīt know where to start with calling him out on his bullshit plot.
Maybe Iīll choose just one (though not the worst one): Yes, girl, the boy you grew up with for your whole life turns out to be your cousin instead brother. Itīs totally okay to fall in love with him now.... WAIT, WHAT?! (And that reaction is leaving aside the confusion over WHY SAO needed an incest subplot. sigh).
Watching the majority of this episode, I was surprised to discover that it was in fact, not terrible. They hit on the right points of the aftermath of such an event, Kirito recovering, having a bit of an "I know Kung-fu" moment (which given the circumstance and immersion of the NerveGear, makes sense), but it partially failing thanks to him being used to auto-assist, etc.
And then...
Son of a bitch!
(and no, I had not read this far.)
Cuz.
What mediocre-at-best harem series would be complete without an incest option?
This was the only genuinely good part of the episode. While Kirito has past experience of RL kendo, he still thought a bit too much of himself based on his long game experience (although he was wise enough not to boast aloud).
However, the scumbag dude wanting to marry a girl in a com was the weakest part. He must be thinking he's still living in the feudal era. Even if he did bribe some judge to be able to wed her, surely he should understand the first thing Asuna would do upon waking up is a divorce. That ought to be an exceedingly humiliating fact for anybody. Unless he intends to make sure she will never wake up. But if that's the case, he should have a concrete plan of silencing Kirito as well. But being stupid enough to talk to Kirito about his plans speaks against his level of intelligence.
