Kirito Fight Gleam Eyes Boss

[@notimeleft1]

It don’t matter how many times I see this moment, this debut for dual wielding is the biggest highlight of the anime

[@drunkenpeanut6582]

also this moment makes a wonderful pfp, I swear like 9/10 people with SAO pfp's it's this 0:26

[@MelonPlays.]

This was probably one of the most epic fights in the anime

[@RedMooseJesus]

Imagine being the creator of the game watching this fight, knowing you put alot of work into making this boss and gave it some secret surprises too hoping it would take the players some time to figure it out and beat it......and then kirito shows up and solos it first try

[@tffan-gm9nl]

Kirito didn't really solo The Gleam Eyes, I think Asuna and Klein softened the boss up somewhat, with Corvatz's men having at minimum done some damage to it, it was Kirito using Starburst Stream that finished the boss off and also Kirito did use at least one sword skill before utilising dual wielding, to take aggro off Asuna. So to say Kirito soloed it would be an exaggeration, it would be more accurate to say that Kirito did a good majority of the damage, but did have some help getting the boss to that point. Heck, Kirito ended up about one attack from dying had the boss not died by the end of the skill.

[@TheThursty100]

Considering the dev always meant this to be a true death game where if you die in the game you die in real life, it would be an even bigger fuck you if he intended it to be unbeatable at the first try

Did anyone knows that kiritos strongest skill in ainrad arc is eclipse which is like an advance starbust stream so basically in anime they didnt portray kirito at his best or often mistake the 2

[@sociscin327]

This just seems really original to me. If later animes were to have a scene like this I would think it's cringe or cliched. But this one was just really revolutionary, or just the first anime I ever watched lol.

[@deepakrambharuth4604]

nahh bro, you have a point!

[@cjsr_gymisfun]

I feel its the way it was pre emptied without being overly obvious. Kind of like how omni man is evil. Theres signs that something is up without it being known immediately. The fact he never uses a sheild, he doesn't sell off his older blade for the new one. It all connects

[@Croach193]

@@cjsr_gymisfunUh, no? Asuna and Klein don’t use a shield either and hadn’t sold their weapon, so the “foreshadowing” should also point to both of them having dual wielding, too. But it doesn’t because in SAO, it isn’t unusual for someone to only use a single sword or to have the same weapon for a long time. Especially in an MMO, where glamour is a huge focus. Or do we really think that Kirito is actually using the stats from that coat that he got from the first floor boss? He totally couldn’t just be making his weapon look like the same sword or anything. Definitely not. If anything, it makes less sense the more you think about it. If he could dual wield the entire time, why was he hiding it until just now when he could’ve used it to save Sachi when her guild set off that trap and all got killed. Or did he only consider using the skill after he got the green sword from the dragon that he also could’ve taken down with the dual wielding skill? Oh, but he was trying to keep it secret, right? Because if everyone knew that he had a super duper unique skill like that, they would treat him like he’s the best player in the game, and that wouldn’t be cool.

[@godfrey1740]

​@@Croach193 Most of what you're saying doesnt make sense. First of all, Asuna already explained right before the boss fight why she didn't use a shield (because it would lower her speed), Klein didn't use a shield because his katana is two handed (or at least he used two-handed skills). I really dont understand your point with Kirito's coat, because throughout the story his coat changes, the only thing that remains is dark color of the coat. What makes you think that he could dual-wield the entire time? Kirito mentioned that he obtained dual-wielding skill not long before visiting Lizbeth(and long after Sachi death) and after the boss fight he also explains the reason for hiding it. You may ask why Kirito didn't use a shield before he got that skill? Again, before the battle with Gleam Eyes Asuna said that there are people who wield one-handed sword because of their battle-style(or smth like that).

[@gerardosantiago8694]

i can see why kirito collapsed to the ground right when the fight ended, like imagine being in a fight that you know if you lose, you and everyone you love will die, and already with that pressure having to keep up and reading your enemies attacks, it’s a lot to have on your shoulders, after being done it’d be too quiet, i feel like i’d be dizzy afterwards.

I don't think sao will ever top this arc over the entire series. Like alicization was good, but it didnt make me jump over a scene like in sao arc. Its really sad that we didnt get to see full 100 floors of aincrad in its true nature of death game. Well I kinda did with the psvita game and boy it was a pretty fun ride and definitely wished the author had wrote it instead of cutting it off half way 😭. Maybe its just that sao raw concept of death game inticed me so much that when the first arc was over, it didnt feel truly like sao. Death was imminent in every arc but wasnt the same like it was in sao where everything was just dependent on theirselves not the outside world.
