This is my first time, in my life of watching anime, I had tears of sadness and tears of joy welling up in my eyes in a SINGLE episode. This episode is perfect. Shows the powerful love between Asuna and Kirito - even in a virtual world. Having strong relationships to each other in virtual worlds can bring relationships to real worlds; at least that's what I learned from this anime. I can't wait for the next episode. I am really curious on how everyone would react to find out who completed to game.
