Liking it so far  to be fair, they probably already know that the pacing is off and that it's best that ALO was on its own (or better transition) but for whatever reason (probably time, want people to buy VN/LN/manga etc...), the anime gets the shaft. Also, getting married in the game doesn't equal real life and that kid isn't an actual kid so that stuff never happened  Wasn't there an argument not too long ago about this point where it was argued that in the context of SAO saying "that stuff never happened" isn't really true because they are like that in real life. | ||

Its an ongoing theme that the LNs ruthlessly pound into your brain, and the anime loses track of it every so often. But if something happens between Kirito and some character in a game, its an interaction to him that is just as real as an encounter in person. So with Kirito and Asuna, they met and became lovers in a game, but since that is real to them, that carries over IRL as well. | ||

I'm not sure who's going to win this though. So far, seems like Kaori got the upper hand and we know the rule, that childhood friends rarely win. I like both characters a lot though Kaori a bit more atm. I'm sure Ryouta would have something to say if Kaori ended up with Kousei then again, he seems like a bro so maybe not lol. Latest episode ended on a good and exciting note. Tsubaki got her time with Kousei and the two other pianist that want to crush him in competition. Hopefully we get more background about them. Seeing as there's still quite a bit of episodes left and I don't see us waiting more than several episodes to get to the competition, I wonder if he's going to lose it but guess with all the preliminaries and rounds, it can take us all the way to the end. Here's to more Kousei x Kaori moments! :D On November 16 2014 14:44 Slaughter wrote: Wasn't there an argument not too long ago about this point where it was argued that in the context of SAO saying "that stuff never happened" isn't really true because they are like that in real life. good question, I think so? Sounds like something that was discussed at some point.

It was never mentioned how the bodies survived afair but if they gave them parental nutrition, they'll at least get essential stuff like lipids, dextrose etc... | ||

They did mentioned something about the developer informing the officials/govt regarding trapping players in the game, and allowed them 1-2hrs to move everyone to hospital | ||

Didn't the anime show this? Like when SAO ended and they woke up in a hospital? They were kept alive the same way people in a coma are kept alive. | ||

Idk but I think I'd prefer Kaori to be some sort of bff to both and Tsubaki wins at the end (not considering all the death flag showed by Kaori yet) Poor senpai dude though, temporary replacement.

Yes there is a route for every one of his classmates. The common route will take you a while before you get to any of the choices to begin entering routes. the order is Makina -> Amane -> Sachi -> Michiru -> Yumiko. So if you want to do Sachi's 1st you will have to make the choices to not enter Makina's or Amane's as they come along then you will get the point where you can enter Sachi. | ||
