Last edited by relentlessflame; Today at 22:25. Reason: added spoiler tags - Sorry...guess I keep giving you trouble -.-, I didn't really think that even if I hadn't mentioned something in the LN I should've added the spoiler tags, because it was an answer to something related to the LN, since I was only talking about the episode and never mentioned anything about the LN...really sorry. After this one I'll deff be re-reading atleast 5 times after posting, so I can notice if there's anything wrong with it, really sorry. |

So I wasn't the only one who thought that...since my main language isn't english, I was like...What the O.o, but then I thought...maybe my english ain't that good, and that's why I couldn't understand it. Glad I'm not the only one lol

Yes, sorry... I'm 2/2 on "typing the total opposite word to what I mean" today.
As another random comment about the comments in that blog post... as a moderator, that blog is way worse than this Forum! So many trolls and anti-trolls... By the way, the author also clarified how the stadium could be so full (which is something we basically already knew)... Spoiler for Based on author's comment about Episode 10:

Now, as for Heathcliff's character, is he truly evil? Is he one of those grey leaders who need to make the tough decisions? We really don't know much about him, except that he gives off a negative vibe at the moment.

lots and lots of diapers. They need physical therapy when they get out. I hope they start running marathons once they wake up. "Oh no, game is over. Have to run to where all the servers are." |

The KoB and the frontline group is dedicated to clearing the game as fast as possible yet Kirito wants to take Asuna (sub-leader) to who knows where. And having another unique skill player in the guild is worth the risk to take in his mind. If anything Heathcliff's actions are pretty much justified up to this point. |

Other than that, he seems like a really wise and cunning leader. And I agree with relentlessflame's spot on analysis.

The scene appeared to Kirito not being able to move for a few seconds, or his moves being delayed while hearthcliffs were a lot faster. Might be just for the effect of a beater having lost though. Still the scene was pretty strange...

I never said that Kirino killing Kuradeel was unfair. I even *explicitly* wrote that Kirito killing Kuradeel was *well-deserved*. I don't see how you get from that to misconstruing such a nonsense. They said before that killing other players makes you an orange player. When Kirito hunten down that PK guild (not Laughing Coffin, the one before), he said that he wouldn't mind being orange for killing the girl (or the others as well), so they surrender, as Kirito has a much higher level, and they wouldn't have a chance. Quote:
Even if they wanted to keep it PG-13, there's way too little to infer that they *did* have sex. If they had actually meant to imply that, they would've at least put Kirito in underpants only, sitting on the bed, the it would've been clear. But they didn't. It would also be a little strange, if they would have had sex so suddenly after Kirito showed no interest before, when Asuna had stripped naked and just gave her a blank stare. He really *should* have undressed right there and went to bed with her, but he *didn't* (not interested, or perhaps he's a stuck-up prude believing in that "No sex before marriage" nonsense). It's hard to believe that he changed his mind that quickly and in a very short time went from "no interest" to "hey, let's have sex". By all means, they really *should* have had sex, but it just wasn't there, as much as you wish it had happened. Hopefully we'll see something actually intimate later, i.e. something from which you can infer they did it without wishful thinking. I don't know how it was in the LN. Did they actually have sex there, and the anime just failed badly at reproducing it?

Fanwank answer: They obviously didn't want to disturb Kirito when he was getting ready for the fight, and the scene cut away after he lost so for all we know Egil, Klein, Asuna and the girls took him out of a choco-banana parfait to cheer him up. |

I said you said it was unfair, because, if you kill someone who tries to kill you, you have to be able to defend yourself, without taking consequences. The " nonsense " here, is that you said he should turn orange. Which would basicly mean you think that everyone that defends himself from getting killed, should be charged as a criminal. That's the nonsense. - It doesn't really matter if his death was well deserved, though. What if he was still green? His death would've still been well deserved, but then Kirito would've turned orange, which would make Kirito the criminal, not Kuradeel... And, he didn't say he wouldn't mind turning orange for killing that woman, nor her comrades. He said he wouldn't mind turning orange to hurt her a bit so he could get them all to jail, why would you think he'd want to kill them? - Since she's green, if he " touched " her, he'd turn orange. Edit: You said it was another flaw if Kirito didn't turn orange...so I really don't get it...if you don't think it's wrong for him not to be " charged as guilty " - if you can say so - why would he turn orange for killing an orange player? Or did you just not realize that Green players attacking Orange players wouldn't turn Orange? Then, if so...my bad, I just thought you'd know that by now..
