Honest Review Of Sword Art Online (ALfheim Arc)

[@kazekori9593]

I like how the "just so cool" counter carries over because he's JUST SO COOL

[@jeffery_tang]

No wonder every single girl fawns over him... cuz he's just so damn COOL

[@LunarEquinox]

He is just to cool I agree

[@thesilverbird45]

😂

[@austingomez9630]

🙌 The holy comment Because, he just so COOL!

[@1993VolkswagenPassatGLXVR6]

Hey mistah. I amu madu scientistu. Itso coolu! Sunuvabich.

[@Dont_care_4_U]

Season 1 of SAO is the anime version of. “They had us in the first half I’m not going to lie” meme

[@kirito71713]

I did not know their were more parts now I can binge watch and continue saying "BECAUSE HE'S JUST SO COOL"

[@RGC_animation]

"Kirito is gonna fight the most skilled player of the entire game." "Oh so it's gonna be hard, right?" "Nope, it's super easy, barely an inconvenience."

[@salvadortoscano2534]

"After having a fight as useless as Rias Gremory's clothes" Never before have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with xD

[@MinhNguyen-hl3ys]

I can't believe Kirito is this cool

[@sjoepster1214]

Kirito is the embodiment of plot armor, change my mind

[@Delta-lu5kf]

Dude can't win a fight solo to save his life. The fact that he consistently fails or requires help from other characters disproves this.

[@BarioIDL]

who says SAO doesn't have tank class

[@realah3001]

Man gets his ass beat by all the villains lol

[@BarioIDL]

@@realah3001plot armor is about not dying winning is about strategy, which sao also lacks

[@growingoaks]

@@Delta-lu5kf The fact that Kirito actually 1v1'd the boss that normally should have required a raid was an awful choice. his over-the-top OP'ness really kills my enjoyment honestly

[@DbzDirectioner]

Yes, "Make Asuna Great Again". 👍👍👍

[@Naluh]

Hey, normal damsel in distress do not ESCAPE FOR HERSELF :3 yeah, she couldn't finish the job, but her effort was crucial. Still was bad puting Asuna in a birdcage xD

*I Understood That Reference*

[@budthecyborg4575]

I feel so lucky that I waited 10 years to watch SAO so I got to see Abridged immediately after experiencing the show. (IMO Part 1 is the second best Isekai of all time.)

[@GC-Shadow1327]

I actually liked this arc especially Kirito more than Aincrad because it exposed how vulnerable the MC was the entire time hiding most of his baggage in the first arc and then attempt to reinvent himself. Even though he was "JUST SO COOL" breezing through the sequel game, its obvious it was taking everything to keep himself from shattering every two episodes despite his macho act.

[@necoom]

It also kind of makes sense that he can just breeze through the sequel game. He kept his stats from playing 2 years 24/7 of the other game with no level cap whereas everyone else presumably has to work or go to school or do something other than playing the game. His character's stats should simply be far and away completely above everyone else. Honestly, this sequel should have been even easier than it was to breeze though.

[@Andysomethingisfoolish]

@@necoom true, only reason he had more trouble as a lvl 96 and lvl 1 is because of how ALO is designed. It had no numerical lvls if I recall correctly, relied more on real skill

[@LB-vf2hm]

Damn, I've got good timing. Just finished watching your Akame ga Kill review, and I see "new video, 3 minutes ago"

[@LunarEquinox]

My statue now bitches

[@budthecyborg4575]

Part 2 is definitely a guilty pleasure as a follow up to Part 1, but I still feel like the premise does add substance in that it avoids the trope of "Wake Up The World Is Perfect Now" after beating the final boss in Part 1. The second half of SAO just should have been condensed into six episodes instead of 12.

[@ren6thespada632]

Your videos never fail to make me laugh

[@gio87vr]

Why the headset? Have you already forgotten? Yui has been saved inside the memory module of that headset.

[@omegaphoenix7085]

Can’t wait for the next video of sword art online

[@altogrey9712]

7:27 iirc, that poster is actually the character figure that was used for the advertisement of the game, and is one that you could get if you're lucky, and Suguha was just that lucky. I think this was mentioned in like the OVA, or whatever that hour long episose thing was, but yeh

[@P1ay3r7]

7:34 I'm sad that you didn't mention he's basically Shinji from Fate, since they share the same VA

[@Average.Viewer]

we don't talk about this arc

[@trytobanme9332]

Kritio being op in game is explained in 3rd season

[@tulatula6314]

I would like how you described that part of a scene as the most necessary scene in all of SAO but I am not ok. I am traumatized.

Ah yes, the Baba Yaga. The man who beat the shit of Don Fluffles army, a true legend among the players.

[@JV-nm1fy]

That is a parody of the orignal. Does it even count?

[@halotooo]

correction there is no such thing as "kirito effect", there is only "Matsuoka harem effect"

[@Lerdo18]

Bro i love when you change the tier from "budget hacker" to "bring back asuna" and still let the others in the same tier

[@UltimatePhantasm-j6k]

Basically sao main vallains: Hahahahaha I am the admin you can't defeat me! Kirito: Yeah but I am me

[@Histerdcap]

Kirito : yeah but you aren't mc

[@erckupazo]

It actually starts getting good at mother rosario(sort of) and gets really good at alicization but you have to get through so much mid to get to it.

[@kbflash4970]

So a crazy thing I learnt is that in Japan it's not weird to marry your cousin

[@LunarEquinox]

it's not lol its a cultural thing

[@Tgtllbtv]

part 2 baby!!!!!!!

[@jaieregilmore971]

It was pretty dumb for Kirito not changing his game name in Alfhime.

[@growingoaks]

0:59 this sound horrifies me. Re:ZERO is probably my favorite anime but god damn if it ain't horrifying sometimes

[@luc424]

If they just focused the entire first season on Aincrad, this could've been much better smh

[@DeathyOw]

I m noticing a lack of enthusiasm in your “because hes just so cool” shoutout

[@deadline6149]

well the worst arc for sure, but are we ignoring the greatest bullsht? How can a coma patient get basically sold in marriage by her parents? I wonder

[@silverdust4197]

You should review the Abridged as well , it's really funny and somehow fixed most (if not all) the problems the original had .

[@muazadam3631]

If you finish this anime you should try durarara

[@netapel2625]

My favourite part of this season was the credit sequence on the final episode. Because that means the show is over, right? They wouldn't make more of these, right? Like with Guns or AI for example, right?

[@rachelle3796]

Ah yess, the arc that killed the reputation of SAO for worse

[@AfterthymeGaming]

And very much destroyed SAO for me. I just imagined Kirito went to the police, show the photo of Asuna that other players somehow screen capture in the game and tell them to search though Rect or whatever the name of the company Sugou was running. Untill he went to prison serving his life sentence for trapping everyone in the game. And also traumatized Asuna by §*xual assaulting her in game. Which is so unforgivable and I'll never get over it now I've seen what he's done. I just wanna torture him myself but thank goodness Kirito managed to beat him somehow.

[@seg162]

It was used as a scapegoat for the entire first season until everyone got the greenlight to hate on SAO properly/realized that the writing didn't just drive off a cliff in between arcs 1 and 2.

[@CosmosGem]

​@AfterthymeGaming on top of that the whole idea of siblings incest feels wrong, ik they aren't blood related but still

[@CosmosGem]

​@@AfterthymeGamingalso that rape scene scarred me

[@VixYW]

If you think that was a lot of sidetracking, then don't get me started about all the skipped story arc that happened after the diplomatic fight and the time Kirito and Leafe reached the tree (notice that the system says it was 4am when they get there despite still being daytime after the fight was over). One could argue that it is a good thig they skipped that, doing so pretty much ruined the Excalibur arc in season 2. And then people ask me why I think Accel World is vastly superior to SAO...

Review code geass

[@mk_annan22]

Jokes apart, In the Sword Art Online Progressive series, Reki actually does improve the anime plot by retelling from Asuna's perspective. I watched all of SAO seasons and your reviews did give a different perspective. I really liked SAO and was dissappointed with this hit and miss. Watch SAO Aria of a Starless night before the second progressive move releases this year; it's better and basically meant to be what the original Aincrad arc was from SAO (2012). Also, in the progressive movie- both Kirito and Asuna are even more cool than this.

[@MrDiscane]

How about new RWBY?

[@rainbowthunderlove8375]

🙏 yes more

[@henry_tsai]

At this point, I would just call SAO as "footage resource" for SAO Abridged, since that's probably their most positive way to provide anything useful.

[@tahajamshaid4356]

do u prefer to watch anime subbed or dubbed? Just curious...

[@LunarEquinox]

Subbed because I watch it in 2x speed to meet my weekly requirements so I can read fast but listening that fast is hard

[@tahajamshaid4356]

@@LunarEquinox I see your point.. Cool man.. Looking forward to your next anime reviews...

[@Francis-from-L4D]

I feel like Sword Art Online could’ve been better if it did either of these 2 things Shorten the first half of season 1 to 13 episodes and have kayaba give Kirito the world seed in that sky scene with Asuna and explain “he wants to leave his legacy to a successor before he dies” Or Have Kirito use Yui as a guide to speedrun in a deserted version of Sword Art Online and the end battle being Kirito needing to fight the 300 brainwashed victims with the final battle being Asuna The fairy arc doesn’t make sense Sword art online apparently killed the VR industry and yet the land of the fairies is being played Next in season 4 it was explained that nervegear headset were recalled and were shut out from the public, so then how do people other than the Sao survivors even get the headset Finally, the fact that kayaba’s soul was in the land of the fairies doesn’t make sense for the fact that Sugou was the one that designed game, even if the game’s code was copied Sugou had to of gone through the code to polish it so it would be suitable for the public and so no one could get to the end Theres more points like the administrator card for Asuna to conveniently drop to kirito and how no one thought about looking through the sword art online’s code for the 300 people that are still in a coma but 10 episodes can only have so many plot holes and criticisms before the points and arguments get repetitive

[@heartfang13]

The fact that they're using a different headset entirely is explained in the first episode. Alfheim is a direct copy of SAO, not based on it. This is also stated in the first few episodes. No one would look through SAO's code for the same reason they wouldn't take the Nervegears off the 300 players, because they didn't know if it would still kill them or not. Like this comment isn't any better than than this video. Like there's one plot hole in fairy dance, and I've never heard a single person ever bring it up.

[@grantgollan]

[@jvts8916]

Oh hey, it's the part of SAO everyone pretends didn't happen so they can call Season 1 the first Isekai anime! Season 2 Spoilers now I imagine the Caliburn and Mother's Rosario arcs are going to be a sort of monkey's paw, because Yui now serves to announce any upcoming enemy attacks (yes, even in PVP, making Kirito go from "one of the best players" tier to "actually cheating" tier) and Klein comes back and is a huge simp for an NPC

[@armansoni9405]

I think this ark is bad and instead of making this ark this anime should just end at first ark because in my opinion first ark was nice
