A bit too many still frames, although it is difficult to see how they'd make it through all this content without it.

I don't mind shortening of the fight sequences (non-spoiler: in the LN they are...

Here's a bit of my thoughts. The animee is obviously going to be simplified over the LN / WN. I read the LN and I still didn't care for the slave angle - yes it is used to show that Naofumi is...

Episode 5 (and some back tracking). In my opinion:

The good: Bringing the queen in earlier helps with the logical flow and is tied into the shadows pretty well.

The unavoidable: The episode is...

Personally I agree w/ Felix. There are, in my opinion way too many master - slave relationship series already. By going this route, it's falling into a bit of an expected overall pattern and...

I felt that GGO showed improvement from a writing style, as far as blending two point-of-view. And I quite enjoyed the last few episodes. However, it also had some disappointing weaknesses in the...

I'm sure there's more depth in the LN version, there certainly was in some of the other arcs. It's just that I've seen second hand a number of relatives (sometimes parents, other times grandparents)...

I figured that Asuna and her mom were likely to reach some understanding, it just feels that the start of the story builds her mom up so that it seems like she'll be much more involved in the later...

Yeah, seems like Asuna is online a lot. This episode seems to be starting to bring up the problems this is causing her. Not having read the source, it's hard to know what the characters are...

Depends on how you define weak. I think we can see that she has been indecisive, and is now coming to face that she needs to take the lessons she learned inside SAO about being in charge and...

I think the impression I had is that prior to being trapped in SAO Asuna was simply doing what her parents expected without even thinking that much about any real goals of her own. The story never...

At least we finally get some action after so much talking, although it would have been nicer to be a bit more balanced.

It did indeed become rapey rather quickly; I was thinking it would be enough...

The first arc of season 2 should wrap up next week. You could always watch that en-mass and then wait for the rest to finish.

I think Kirito had won 300k in the NPC contest, and the sword cost him half of that, so 150k. He spent the remainder on the rest of his equipment. He comments (at least in the LN) that while Sinon...
