Really for me, this episode is by far the best among the 14 episodes.
Maybe just because this is my favourite moment of the whole Aincrad arc in the novel. From Kirito vs Heathcliff duel to Kayaba explaining about his dream to Kirito and Asuna hugging together to finally Kirito holding the IV to search for Asuna. Wow, just great.
Looking forward to the next arc and new OP and ED.
EDIT: It would be much better if the anime included Kirito's inner monologue about him cursing the system for having no mercy to the players just like in the novel. I really expected that before watching this episode but oh well...
