It was sad to see Kiro trying to protect them and ended in failure and probably will drive him to be more loner.

Still, I kinda failed how exactly is his fault though. The Black Cats were dead because of their stupidity...
The scene where he tells them not to open it was supposed to be longer. They had time to argue about it. Kirito could have told them he'd already fought in that dungeon as part of the clearing group and found it to be full of traps, but didn't because he didn't want to reveal his level.

This ep didn't hit me as hard as the novel. I guess partly because I knew precisely what to expect, partly because of pacing. Mostly pacing. I knew they'd all die from the beginning.

Also, they didn't have Argo in Aria, but they show her now? The hell?
