1) He said there is no clear connection between the worlds (Accel World, Light Novels, Volume 10, afterwords).

2) Accel World, Anime, episodes 2-5.

Spoiler for AW anime ep 2-5:

KYH's mother, whoever she is, didn't show up during the time KYH was in a coma. If Asuna was her mother, I doubt she'd just leave her daughter alone like that.

I know it's been said that Reki has somewhat denied the connection, but I've only ever seen the forum say that.

Is there a link to a trusted source of Reki's exact (translated) words on the matter? We might want to dig into the quote too because:

"There's no connection" is different than "There's not necessarily a connection"

Spoiler:

While KYH was in the hospital, is there a possibility that her parents were across the world or stuck in UnderWorld or something?
