Sword Art Online 2 – 14
Behold the powerful chest of Jesus-Kirito-sama!
Hello SAO fans I am back to give you my thoughts on this episode which marks the official ending of the GGO portion of the first half, but I already heard where the series is going to next and it has me feeling quite annoyed! I guess ill get over it and continue to ride the crazy train with Jeusu-Kirito-sama and friends.
———————————————–
The end of Death Gun?
Shinkawa-“PLEASE ADD ME TO THE HAREM!?”
Sinon-“Screw that dude I deserve to be in the harem damn it!”
Yes finally the truth about Mr. crazy ass Deathgun has been revealed! Yes it was Shinkawa all along well kind of? I guess he was inspired by his brother who was a SAO survior just like Kirito, but he did not see the differences between the virtual world and the real world when it came to the subject of death. So have we seen the last of Shinkawa? Nope I think Sinon still plans to visit him in jail to tell him her true feelings on everything? Wow I have to ask what is she planning on saying to him? Like yeah ill go out with you err wait never mind! You are the psycho that tried to force me to become your real life waifu! Damn I really hope she does something like that, but who am I kidding I think we all can see how it will play out next week with Sinon simply forgiving him for what he did and if can almost bet money that she will even thank him for pushing her along to make her a stronger person! Yeah something like that? I swear this series practically writes itself. Now what is the next operation for Jesus-Kirito-sama? I have no idea other than him returning to play ALO once again with Asuna and the rest of his harem until some other VRMMO needs saving and what about Sinon I wonder if she she will follow her new savior to ALO and become part of the team? I could see her rolling an archer class! I guess that might be cool but we shall see I know Asuna wants to be friends with her.
FK YA EXTRA GUNS
Sinon has the sexiest eyes~
Sinon-“Who wants to play a quick round? Anyone? Wait why are you running away?”
I think we all will miss you Deathgun!
The most tragic loss in GGO.
Oh come on it can’t be that bad!
Oh damn shots fired.
End thoughts
Hooray! GGO is over and Deathgun got owned by the law! So what did I think of GGO as a whole? While it was amazingly animated which is a given with the studio, but I was a bit excited to see a new VRMMO set in a non fantasy world because that tends to get old after a while. So was it an enjoyable arc? As much as I don’t like SAO there were some alright parts with the action moments especially whenever Jesus-Kirito-sama went all SUPER COOL JEDI mode on us swinging his light saber like a madman. Did anyone else laugh like I did every single time he attacked someone with his light saber? I swear it always looked so damn funny whenever he cut someone in half! Now onto the two main characters! I can’t say much for Jesus-Kirito-sama’s character because I knew ahead of time that he was always overpowered and I knew that was never going to change, but as far as his actual personality goes yes he had some character growth , but at the same time I still feel that his past trauma with killing players SAO was seriously shoved in at the last moment just to give him a personal connection to Sinon who experienced the same thing and I still count all of his “kills” as being self defense because those guys attacked him first, I mean what was he spose to do in that situation? Let them win? Anyway onto Sinon next who I will say she looks really cool as far as designs go; however I never really felt any real connection with her because I generally found her to be quite boring at times, but I guess learning about her past and why she plays GGO was kind of interesting or was it? Honestly I really have no idea if playing a FPS game is the logical choice when trying to get over a fear of guns! Anyway thanks for reading I hope you stick around for more SAO.

See you in the next VRMMO!

Other than that type of show, I love a good comedy or action series :D

Well, this was GGO right down to the ground. Felt somewhat contrived.
The best moment for me was when they transitioned Shinon letting her sniper rifle fall away and replaced by the little girls hands. They could have gone on and on about her rehabilitation…but they showed it with some style.

True I guess GGO was a decent arc in the SAO story line but I think I was expecting something else but I have no idea what that something was! Maybe more gun stuff and less crying about the past.
Agreed I wish they spent some time with Sinon about her rehabilitation as well and what about her mom? Wow she never made any appearances LOL damn.

Deathgun got owned by the law!
Not if the law doesn’t get the 3rd Death Gun accomplice.
Somehow I feel they will come back to bite Kirito and co…
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Right this is true the 3rd Deathgun is still out there in the world doing stuff and I have a feeling that we haven’t seen the last of him! Imagine if he followed Kirito to ALO? Yeah that needs to happen.

Fosh has the most hilarious comments on screenshots, srsly.
If I didn’t read the LN, I would have probably been way more excited. Knowing who’s the villain from the start killed the mood. The only thing is that Kirito never looked as shallow as he did in this arc.
And I seriously do not remember Kirito being saved by that round thingy which name I forgot. That was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too convenient.

Hahah I am glad you like them! I really do have fun making the memes and captions for every post I work on <3
Right I read the novel as well up to the part with Sinon's back story and stopped after hearing there was an anime just around the corner, but of course I was never the biggest SAO fan out there...
That part had me laughing! Seriously Kirito is so damn lucky LOL

We call that plot armor! And his was ridiculously resistant.

GGO was an alright arc considering it’s a completely different setting from the games of last season even though it turned a blind eye letting our OP lead Kirito still have a chance of getting his hands on a sword. His moves with the light saber were a lot better than with regular blades.
So in a nutshell, Shinkawa became a parasite born from his brother’s brainwashing. I find it that a person would actually idolize someone who bragged about committing murder. All that’s telling me is he probably wasn’t good in the head to begin with.
Glad to see Sinon moving on with her life. The reunion with the lady she saved should definitely increase her mental healing.
For any who’s wondering where things go from here, it’s said the remaining episodes are going to cover two arcs: Calibur and Mother’s Rosary (Mother’s Rosario) These arcs will use a new opening theme song by Haruka Tomatsu, as well as a new ending theme song by LiSA. To answer Fosh’s question on what becomes of Sinon, there’s a picture of her as an archer.

…and the next episode is a .5 episode….so expect to relive the best of GGO! Fosh?! Time to unleash more Meme!

LOL I would every week for SAO2 but I think it’s cool to see every ones take on the series every week xDD

Do you guys decide who’s blogging by random draw or is there a list?
POWUH: and LOLi Defender with 10998 comments
We set up a rotation for the episodes before the 1st one aired.
..and they all looked forward in time, a gift I do not possess, to stick me with the exposition episodes…they are cruel….
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yep there is a rotation between me, Skylion, Highway and Kara for SAO2 cause we all wanted a piece of the SAO2 pie <3
POWUH: and Vampire Lover with 11746 comments
So each of you gets 6 episodes for the whole series. A reasonable agreement.
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah giving Kirito a sword inside a game where you use guns as the primary weapon made my eyes roll! Seriously WHY? Ah well I know he is more comfortable with that kind of weapon so in the end it’s whatever.
Right Shinkawa was obsessed with his brother and I guess wanted to be just like him? That is how I took it but yeah idolized is the best word.
I hope so~
Ahhh I figured she would join up with the other girls so I guess that is something to look forward to seeing eventually.
