~I'm back with
episodic posts! :D My exams are over and I hope that the results will be great.
This is episode 9 of SAO and I haven't
watched 10. I'll probably do that later (or tomorrow?). The rest of the series
I'm usually posting will be done in awhile. Hopefully tomorrow(:

Now for those people
complaining about A-1 Pictures' decision to follow the light novel and begin
with the side stories, I suggest that you give this series another chance.
Personally, I didn't entirely like the idea as well but I believe that those
side stories weren't really just to give us the rules of this game rather those
side stories are actually a part of Kirito's development (well I'm pretty sure
you all know that).
As everyone might
have noticed, I'm a fan of Kirito and I like how Kirito was like: now who's the
good guy? - in this episode. Not that he's playing good guy because he wanted
to. His decision to see how The Army guild gone was purely driven by emotion because
of what he experience back then. But then again, he didn't had the intention to
help them to begin with. If it wasn't for Asuna's intervention, Kirito wouldn't
have probably joined the boss fight and let that guild die just like that right
before them.
Probably one of the
best thing about this episode is the battle. Of course that's what I'm really
expecting from Sword Art Online and I'm
glad to see some cool battle like this. Also, I'm really happy to see Kirito
work not only with Asuna but also with Klein who probably have grown even
stronger since the last time we saw him.
I wasn't really
surprised with Kirito's unique ability because a friend of mine who’s reading
the manga version have already told me about it (as well as what's going to
happen on the next episode). Although I have to admit that seeing Kirito use it
was heck cool. Now I'm liking him even more :3 I like how Kirito has
practically sacrificed himself to save everyone from that boss and he even used
his unique ability which he's probably trying his best to keep from public.
Finally, I'd like to
go through with that cliffhanger. Although I know what will be the output of
their battle, I'm still pretty interested to see it. Asuna sure is a pretty
important and strong member of their guild, huh? The bet that Kirito just
entered sure is pretty interesting. I'd say that either Kirito wins or lose,
I'd still like the outcome. I mean if he wins, seeing more of Kirito x Asuna is
definitely a plus for me while seeing Kirito join the guild would also mean
more interesting things to see here in SAO.
~Also, I'm trying
this new style of post. I decided to make more paragraphs than squishing most
of them in a three or four like before. I think that this is easier to read(:
