I guess I can tell you who but not why, if Kawahara doesn't decide to insert more plot twists to liven up his WEB novel.

Spoiler for Asuna & Alicization:
Edit: Oh, and I take back what I stated a few posts back: there are two more instances when Kirito dual wields. One of the two is covered in Versus, the Accel World crossover side story, the second comes at the ending to Alicization. |

This Alicization arc is really big.....and it is very detailed.....it might have a significance far deeper than any of the other arcs.
Even though the title came from a "relatively short arc"...honestly reading through all the translated light novels.....I'm starting to forget the SAO era ....I think it should be more detailed about it.... Oh I forgot....Progressive is doing it Honestly I'm more interested in that than the alicization arc, If this arcwill eventually end up in Accel world it would be a bit of a disappointment.....I was like a bit negative about accel world as even if you can accelerate like that, the limitations on your brain(signal transmission does not allow you to accelarate 1000x or like that), or physical full burst is almost impossible as it would tear all your muscles to contract them so fast....It does not seem too realistic. It seems like SAO was more planned out and thought of.....Even the fluct-light theory might seem reasonable... I'm still looking forward for the new volumes...don't misunderstand me....but as kirito spent 2 years in UW, he also spent 2 years in SAO.....why are those portrayed so differently in terms of length?....it seems unfair....SAO is the base of all he is now.... The web version is so far ahead?.....did the alice arc end???....(I so need to learn japanese )

Accel World is probably a Spritual Successor to SAO. To correct you on one point: you still have 1000x acceleration in AW. Other things, such as Physical Full Burst, are only possible because tech in AW is Augumented Reality, so there's no need to be tethered to a computer.
Alicization arc is confirmed as ended in 2008; the WEB novel, at least. At the time, Kawahara was working on the side story 'Cradle Of The Moon,' and a proto-AW work 'Just In My Eyes.' Both were dropped and unfinished. There are summaries for both in this thread somewhere...need tondig for them. As for why UW and Aincrad are portrayed differently, think about it: if UW was just another Aincrad, would you still read it with as much interest as the original Aincrad arc? |

Even if you say AW is augmented reality, it still does not change the biological fact that the signal transmission from one neuron to the other in the best case is 119 metres/second. this is rather slow if you accelerate your wold by 1000x. In AW the ocial cameras make a digitalized environment but they do not touch nothing in the biological realm of human perceiving speed, this is why AW is just child fantasy story, and SAO is like a blueprint for the future technological advances, because all of the tech described in SAO, can be achieved eventually in the future.
Sorry I do not want to offend any AW fans out there, even though I watched the anime until the end. This was only my opinion on the subject The fluct light theory proposes that the soul is just quantum energy signal linked to the living body. well we do know that in the macro and the micro-universe of particles and energy the speed limit is 300.000 km/second, and that makes things possible to accelerate. But it still needs the device (STL) to read your quantum signature and make a copy of it on the "server". Also about teaching the AI human feelings and emotions and the power of choice.....doesn't that sound like a Terminator scenario? eventually they will rise against humans..... And also the AI in UW is just human soul in the machine.....so they are people too. Humans have a long history of wars based only on the reason "You are different". If you teach this to a machine eventually conflict will erupt on the same reason.

Hm, I guess Episode 1 didn't explain it as well as Volume 1...
In AW, acceleration is explained by artificially feeding an increased heart rate to the brain. The reasoning is that reaction speed is based on the heart rate. If the Neuro Linker intercepts that, and multiplies it by a 1000x, so will reaction speed. Hence the number you quoted for signals travelling between neurons wouldn't stay at that level, it would increase a thousand fold. Furthermore... Spoiler for Fluctlight theory, you say?:
I said Physical Full Burst was possible because of AR - correction. It's never been explained how the challenge of moving the body is overcome. But Physical Burst is still possible because it is only acceleration of your conciousness. Last edited by Tusjecht; 2013-07-18 at 02:41. |

but doesn't an increased brain speed need additonal fuel?...like an engine if you want more power you need to add more fuel and oxygen.....So accelerating your brain needs more oxygen and energy too...
Okay the energy can be explained by burning calories.....but even so oxygen is not pupmed in the brain 1000x faster, thus leaving you in a potential lack of oxygen to your brain, which can be damaging. Even if you come back from acceleration, the increased brain activity which was done without any oxygen will have a backlash..... Also are you saying that the neuro linker is just a portable STL which then relays the signal to the Visualizer and back??.... If so then the AW type acceleration might be possible....but for the STL to become so small from the size of a big room to something you put on your neck......

I imagine that the energy requirements for accelerated thinking is much smaller compared to the energy intake of a muscle. Anyway, BB by default limits acceleration to 1.8 seconds in RL time. As for the command Unlimited Burst, not much is known except that it is advised for Divers to prepare beforehand; eat, go to the bathroom and adopt a comfortable position before Diving.
Yes, that's what I'm saying. The Neuro Linker is described as a portable quantum communication device the size of a neck collar. ...perhaps you might consider reading the light novels first? They'll answer many questions about the acceleration mechanics. |
