I NEED MORE!!! | Sword Art Online Abridged Episode 17 Reaction!

[@Zerochroma15]

That last scene is masterful, from the way they rewrote it, to get rid of the dumb incest plot, and of course, Suguha's voice actor went crazy. Honestly a professional level performance. They put out about an episode a year, so it's not done, it's just long waits between each episode.

[@Jaker788]

A good scene for the portfolio if she wants to go professional

[@seitagosha]

"Uh ItS nOt InCeSt ThEy ArE cOuSiNs'

[@TrackMaster844]

Thankfully, SWE is working on the last 3 episodes simultaneously. The scripting is done, and Kirito’s VA has recorded about 30% of his lines. So hopefully something will be posted in a month or so

[@yeshevishman]

​@@TrackMaster844I don't know what's funnier, the fact that it's 6 months later, or the fact that I could have told you that is NOWHERE close or an estimate 6 months ago...

[@carlriggs5413]

The last episode is so genius. It literally informs why kirito is the way he is in ep 1 and the switch from belly laughing to gut wrenching is great.

[@dynamicworlds1]

"What kind of maniac uses swords as projectile weapons?!?" If you know, you know.

[@garreonlefay6703]

Yeah, the aecher class is made up of archers

[@Lunam_D._Roger]

This also may be partially a reference to Rain, the video game continuity exclusive character who uses maxed blacksmithing skill in Alfhiem along with a Telekinesis skill meant for manipulating weapons from a distance in mass for forging, to drop high teir weapons from her Inventory and propel them at insane speeds, similar to Gilgamesh's GoB, though with finer control and the ability to swing around and weild those weapons with Telekinesis as well. I wouldn't put it past SWE to make a niche reference to this. I also wouldn't put it past this being a reference to the fact that Izzy (Kirito's VA) is also the VA for Shirou Emiya in Project Mouthwash's UBW Abridged, which has an episode in production at the same time as this episode, so it could have been a nod to that too. Or both, it could also be both. Things can be a nod to multiple things.

[@joshuawilliams4314]

Better voice acting at the end then a lot of dubs imo

[@MaxEllSibSwe]

1. don't worry, it's coming back, SAOA basically comes out yearly at this point and rn Something Witty is working on the script for the final 2 or more episodes (they're still in the scripting phase but know it'll be at least 2 episodes. they ARE nearing the end of scripting thankfully and their community tab keeps us updated so check that for news) of this season and have every intention of doing more SAOA after. We'll likely see the next episode in the middle of next year and the rest will come quicker because they'll have the entire script already written so maybe we might even get 2 episodes next year if we're lucky. 2. My favorite part of the reveal is that it puts into context so many statements by both. Like Kirito talking about Suguha mocking him and bragging about her trophies, which with this context was probably her 'trying to make it seem fun' and convince him to come back. 3. This was a good reaction, loved watching your descent into this amazing series and I highly recommend Hellsing Ultimate Abridged, but also, if you want more SWE goodness, they did a one-shot abridgment of In Another World With My Smartphone, a series nobody WANTS to watch ever, and it's really good, plus they have a My Hero Academia Abridged and while I don't like it nearly as much as SAOA or Smartphone Abridged, it's pretty good.

[@DerrickParr]

SWE have confirmed that the scripts of the next 3 episodes are written and the recording has been planned. (Via a community post 4 days ago as I’m typing this)

[@eliasruiz686]

Yearly? Nah, dude takes minimum 2 years to release an episode lately

[@MaxEllSibSwe]

@@eliasruiz686 I meant since they've gotten the writing out of the way the releases for these last 3 episodes should be much faster since that's a big portion of the production time

[@Zack_Zander]

5:50 That's surprisingly accurate. Quite literally sums down their meeting from 1-2 episode to like 35~ words

[@kevinbuyks6788]

I'm a huge sao fan but the abridged is just a masterpiece. Had a blast watching your reactions to SAOA and would love to see your reactions to hellsing abridged and DragonBall abridged

[@Angel_Rod]

I've watched DragonBall abridged but that was YEARS ago

[@Zarjafy]

​@Angel_Rod Check out Smartphone Abridged. Absolutely terrible isekai that this same group took 6 years making a 40-ish minute 1-off to take the absolute piss out of. The MC is like an even more unhinged Kirito times 10.

[@V1G4M1]

Now you have to suffer with the rest of us waiting… qwq

[@MatthewAlvarez-d4e]

Oh I'm not the only sadist

[@Zack_Zander]

9:04 "I've heard a lot about YOU SPINELESS LITTLE PARASITES!" I've never pointed this out before, but I love that transition.

[@Emiliodelgado25]

I have to admit, I like what they did with the Asuna being captured by slug guys in this abridged because at least they didn’t make it more disturbing as the original did just funny and I’m more scary way, scary for them actually

[@Kayta-Linda]

Meh, Shoji kind of deserves everything he gets. ..his therapist isn’t very good at their job, it seems. He has *way* too many horrible issues.

[@BigFearedBalloon]

Hope we get reactions to Explanation Point's breakdown of the Aincrad Arc of SAO Abridged. Thanks for the fun reactions of this series.

[@johannesbowers7467]

When it gets this good don't worry let them cook. If you want a short abridged series that's easier to access, go for Collins layer or Log horizon.

[@Emiliodelgado25]

Can I just say if I was the narrator of this episode I would say this. Well, that story was real dramatic because not only did Kirito lost the fight He also discovered the truth of who leafa is and witnessing suguha true feelings for him but ended up tearing them apart And kirito only has an hour left To stop the soon to be marriage of Asuna and Sugou So stay tuned in the next episode, which might be the final episode of sword art online abridged; will kirito and suguha Find a way to restore Their Siblingship Virtual and real before time runs out Or soon time runs out and kirito and Asuna loses their Relationship virtual and real

[@dodiswatchbobobo]

Next one will probably be out in a month or two.

[@Emiliodelgado25]

I hope it’s a month

[@ilesalmo7724]

is there any fanworks awards. Cause the series deserves at least few

[@Angel_Rod]

It definitely does

[@Emiliodelgado25]

You know, I never got a chance to say it in the channel of the abridged but I think I should say it when the next episode comes I wonder what is going to be like if it’s going to be the mixture between three episodes which makes me wonder how the abridged version of the disturbing Episode 24 gonna be like and how is going to look for episode 25 the last episode of season 1 of sword art online

[@Emiliodelgado25]

What do you think angel Rodriguez

[@rylsdark]

Great way to fix the plot, I love Abridged

[@jeckjeck3119]

Abridged >>> The original. No sweet home Alabama, no plot holes of the size of Texas, it's what SAO could have been. React to the review of SAO abridged for the GLORIOUS roast of the original SAO, brought to you by ''Explanation Point.''

[@bmpplays9927]

if the goal of the series wasn't comedy based i think most people would agree with you

[@duckers0123]

if you mean part2 of season1 then maybe

[@TAGfrost]

This episode is not on your playlist, also your playlist is backwards could you please reverse it so I can leave it to autoplay?

[@sonar357]

It's a crime they haven't done anything to try and finish off this series. Even if they just cut it off at the end of the Alfheim arc...FINISH THE GODDAMN MASTERPIECE!

[@matrix_2296]

They actually are working on it it just takes them like a year to get an episode out

[@davidmatheny1993]

They might actually be able to release the last 3 episodes covering Alfeim by the end of the year. With the time it takes for everyone to get together and work on episodes, I would more than understand if they don't want to spend 15 years covering the Gun Gale arc.

[@duckers0123]

Watch the original
