I'm also not too fond with detective story in general, which is perhap a good thing because I wouldn't care too much what is cut and what is not 
The obvious issue still remain. There is no way they can fit the whole murder case into 1 episode. That's why I believe we don't have to worry about Heathcliff being "too knowledgable". I doubt the anime will go deep into game mechanic anyway. If they are going for dere dere Asuna of volumn 1, they can cut much of tsun scene here as well. As for the murder story itself, well, shouldn't be any worse than RNR should it ??  |
This is one of the main things that bothered me about the story. Asuna does have some elements at other times, but way more during this story than at any other time.
The stuff with Laughing Coffin could potentially be cut, though that could prove problematic should they ever choose to adapt GGO. They could cut out extraneous details or speed along the deaths and investigation.
Just so long as they keep the sleeping scene as that is an important moment for Kirito and Asuna.
