well after 16 volumes the illustrator ought to get better, by the sheer number only...
Just drawing regularly an amateur can improve significantly. imagine a pro... then.

Hello together,
i've been lurking around this thread for quite some time and read a big part of it. I know that the question has been asked before, but i haven't found it answered detailed enough to sate my curiosity ( Well, or i got lost while reading the thread and forgot it already). So how exactly does the whole Situation between Kirito, Asuna and Alice look like in the end? I recall there being a hostility between the later two, but is Kirito described as even seriously considering Alice in a romantic fashion after being reunited with Asuna? The latter would seem a bit weird after the whole KiritoxAsuna buildup in the previous Arcs (Well and the Author including Asuna in Progressive since he "felt it was wrong" to have another female protagonist at Kiritos side if i'm recalling this right from his Afterword in Progression 1). I always got the vibe that he pretty much made up his mind for Kirito and Asuna to be a thing, but that might just be a shippers wishful thinking. So could anyone elaborate ? |

I think you should just wait till the LN ends. Only then you'll have an actual answer to your question.

Is there a something like a overview about the LN / WN differences? I can recall there being a difference about Kirito killing Kuradeel instead of Asuna. Are the changes really that grave, that you would expect a significant deviation in the end? Its gonna be quite some time until i can read the LN in english though. |

Anyway, the plot isn't going to change, but you weren't asking for the plot. You were asking about Kirito and Asuna's relationship. At the end of the WN things are kinda left in the air. They're clearly still going out but Kirito is also really close to Alice, and things are never clarified. I think the LN might be more clearcut about the romance status at the end though. Or not. You'll have to wait and see. lol

Whenever they'll get around to translating it. I got another question: Would someone around here happen to know when the "Popularity Contest Q&A" is supposed to be timeline wise? |

Looks like Kawahara started writing the next Progressive chapter up on his site
http://wordgear.x0.com/novel/novelcg....cgi?mode=list Scherzo of a Murky Dusk, about the 5th floor of course. He'll probably take it down shortly before the December release of the book, so yeah. Just giving a heads up. |

This abec illustration could be a tease for the next arc (probably not, but still...) http://ww4.sinaimg.cn/large/87c7e3b3...22md18g4qq.jpg Last edited by Mark00; 2015-08-19 at 21:22. |

The next arc in an old japan style game? Well... Maybe. Would like to see Argo show up in the main story though. |
