First off, let me go
through the duel between Kirito and Heathcliff (Ookawa Tooru), the
leader of the strongest guild in SAO. As I have mentioned last post, I already
know the outcome of this duel and I'm really glad that the episode didn't
focused so much on it. But don't get me wrong, the match was pretty
interesting. With this episode not having enough battle, this part definitely
made up for it :3
Now I really just
want to say this. I actually like Heathcliff, the leader of the guild Blood
Oath. Last episode, I actually thought that he was some kind of big-time guy
who'd smirk at solo-player Kirito but on the looks of things, he seems to be a
pretty nice guy :3 Heathcliff having a unique skill like Kirito didn't
surprised me that much but it's actually making me think how players with
unique skills are chosen. I doubt everyone has a unique skill. So there must be
something or someway that will allow a player to have a unique skill.
With Kirito finally
joining Blood Oath, it's definitely not surprising for him to encounter
Kuradeel once again. I know that it seems a bit wrong but I actually thought
that Kuradeel will be nicer this time around but I was stand corrected.
Kuradeel's dual guild was a shock for me but I do think that it's something
pretty interesting. Probably the guild Laughing Coffin (did I get it right? :P)
allows their guild members to become members of other guilds OR Laughing Coffin
is some kind of underground guild. LOL. Anyway, that twist surely entertained
me :3
Other than
Kuradeel's betrayal for the guild Blood Oath, Asuna's quick response to the
danger that Kirito was in is pretty amazing. I guess this shows us that her
title wasn't for nothing. Also, I can't believe that she was tracking at
Kirito's movements. She should have just followed them. LOL. That way she could
have prevented the death of Godfrey as well.
As for Kuradeel, it
was just so right for him to die. Actually I can't believe that Asuna even
hesitated but probably the thought of killing someone for real is difficult to
handle. Even I couldn't do it, that's for sure. Even though no one would know
that it's me who killed him my conscience could hunt me forever. But hey, I
seriously laugh when Kirito just finished him off with one attack. HAHA. So he
was that weak?
I like how the
romance between Kirito and Asuna is blooming :3 Kirito asking to go to Asuna's
place didn't surprised me but Asuna getting undress was seriously funny. I
can't believe she's thinking about something Kirito hasn't even considered yet.
LOL. Anyway, ever since the marriage system was mentioned, I already know that
at some point this will happen - Kirito asking Asuna to get married.
Finally, Sword Art Online has been going pretty good
lately. I guess that's to be expected now that the main story has begun. Of
course there're a lot of plot holes in here as everyone all over the forums and
other blogs have been discussing but I don't really want to get over there.
Story-wise in-game, it's going pretty well. What's going on in reality is not
what we would like to talk about right now.
I've read some
spoilers because they were pretty easy to find. Despite having some idea on
what's going to happen, I'm still enjoying Sword
Art Online. I know that there were people out there who had been going
on about how SAO had a pretty bad start.
I won't deny that at some point, I disliked it but my patience with these
things definitely paid off(:
