As an anime-only watcher, I quite enjoyed the episode and SAO continues to impress me. The only problems I have with it are due to the fact that I like "kid show" endings where everything ends up nice and neat so I didn't like how Kirito had to assume the role of the bad guy and the Diabel guy was seen as the good guy in the eyes of the rest of the players.
In terms of developing a story, the two parts that I didn't like are all part and parcel of creating some tension and moving the plot forward. If it wrapped up so neatly then I guess we wouldn't have sucha great show on our hands.
As an anime-only watcher, I rate the episode 9/10. The episode was all action with no boring bits.
