This was definitely a nice episode. I was so nervous that they were going to pull another fast one and have Silica die as well. I don't think I can handle continuous depressing losses in a series like this. One is more than enough.
This episode did give us some nice background information. Apparently, Kirito is part of the front-line troops, but he is a solo fighter. After all this time, he still hasn't latched on with anyone else. I wonder if Asuna has been going solo the whole time as well, or if she has joined up with another guild?
As for PK's, I wonder why there has not been an effort to band together and wipe/arrest them? Kirito seems to be the only one willing. Also, can a PK group level up that high to the same level Kirito is without leveling up the old fashion way? It would require them to kill a lot of high level players, which would seem counterproductive at some point (when they start running out of players, or they themselves get killed).

It might be pointless in a normal MMORPG; however, this one links up with your neural net. Hence, it could serve a purpose to feel more comfortable when you sleep. As shown in the previous episode, sleep is necessary, which, in a normal MMORPG is not always required.
