Didn't get to post anything in the office but just some thoughts on UW Arc ending.

Spoiler for LN Ending:

I really can't say I like the ending, but that's because it's only the summary of it. *shrug*

XxSleepyxX · 2012-08-15, 12:07

Well from the current spoilers we can understands its very doubtful that their BL is actually their kid. I mean after all

Spoiler for Staby Staby:

Alicebot... reminds me of a creepy thing my friends brother showed me awhile back. Japan had a test demonstration; a working functional robot that almost looked human....

I just finished chapters 1 - 25 of the First Volume

my question is

Spoiler:

Clarste · 2012-08-15, 13:53

Volumes 2 and 8 are just sidestories, but the rest takes place after the game is cleared. Including Kirito finding Asuna in real life.

Axiszero · 2012-08-15, 16:35

I just realised something, Accel world is in the same time as SAO right? If so, at the end of SAO, there was talk about rights of A.I. right, so in AW humans should be living with A.I. right ?

There's enough for us to think that the same occur on the same timeline, but we can't know for sure. Author said that they're unrelated, too..

Nope at the current moment nobody knows if there in the same timeline or not. Its presumed that AW is in the same timeline as SAO but somewhere in the future. Because Kirito mentioned something about America testing out a new tech which sounded remotely familiar to a neurolinker.

Authors being a jerk. Like the director for code geass who said in a interview LELOUCH IS DEAD. <=LIES

True they aren't related but I mean like in the state of the world they should be living with A.I, right?

See, this is was exactly how Code Geass was spoiled for me. :P

Pretty much. It's easy enough to draw parallels between the two.

It's left ambiguous on purpose, but you can pretty easily deduce that they had to dive his full consciousness into the UW to keep him alive. (his heart even stopped if I recall)

I assume they simply used the medicube or what they use to keep his body going. Remember that the basic idea is that the nervegear and later versions intercept our own signals to the body, but that also means that it has to generate it's own signals to keep the body breathing etc. So they used that to keep his body going after he was hurt. It's essenetially a highly advanced life support unit.

Even though the Alicization Arc was the last in the Web novels, what are the chances of Kawahara Sensei will continue the story of SAO after the Arc ends, I mean he did create a sort of space setting at the end of the arc.

I definitely want another volume like Mother's Rosario where we have Asuna taking the spotlight. By far one of my most enjoyable volumes. She has lots of potential as a character and her relationship with Kirito can be developed further using his relationship with the other female characters as foils.

I'm not sure I'd want to see another Mother's Rosario style arc, but I agree there is a TON of content he could churn out with all the characters and settings that the author has developed.

Just "SAO" Arc 1 itself had plenty of possibilities, but maybe what made that arc so amazing and memorable is how much was built up and how directly it was all handled.. It made it truly feel like it was a whole world and we but caught a glimpse..

Reading the Baka Tsuki translations and I'm on to Fairy Cube.

I'm about ready to punch myself with a grammar dictionary. I can't speak for the author but I'm pretty sure he'd wonder what you're on about it you said the grammatical equivalent of "«News» arrived as I grabbed a change of clothes to take a bath."

There are many translators who worked on that project and it's fairly obvious that a significant number of them are far from being sufficiently proficient in English grammar. But no one's stopping you from submitting corrections

There's a fair amount that could be fixed easily even without understanding Japanese. Not that I would ever advise anyone to work on illegal translations. Really, don't do it (but then you can't really complain if someone else does a shoddy job).

Right now it seems he's more into retconning SAO. At his announced pace of "one floor per year" (if I understood correctly from what others said about it - it may also be one volume per year, with each volume covering multiple floors) he's got his work cut out for him for the next... oh... 100 years or so. Well, actually only 98 years, since the first floor is complete (Aria) and the second well underway.

Its ambiguous like the ending to Cowboy Bebop. Oh one of the ova's for CG go released. Doesn't really legitly count as a third season although C.C. and Suzaku are suppose to make a appearance in the second ep.

I'd like to read a chapter about the war with laughing coffin already... I mean laughing coffin.. HOW CAN YOU BE ALMOST EVERYWHERE?!!

BladeEntity Anything's Possible Author Join Date: Jul 2009	Didn't get to post anything in the office but just some thoughts on UW Arc ending. Spoiler for LN Ending: I'm kind of 50-50 on whether Kawahara will continue after UW. It seems like the setting that was given was kind of like a space battle setting but it could just be teasing. Will Going back to Underworld leave that trap there every 2 weeks/ 200 years due to log out specifications or would that be fixed by RATH? I assume its the latter but for Kazuto to need to write a letter to his family points to the former. The ending kind of points towards some kind of choice being formed between the real and the virtual worlds for Kirito yet time and again we see that they exist kind of concurrently with each other. He has real world dreams, family etc. But is also drawn towards the virtual world because of the bonds he forms there as well, Alice/Eugeo and Yui etc. How this point will be resolved, if we look at the end of the UW arc it points towards him choosing the virtual world only taking Asuna and Alice. Yui can get a silicon body like Alice is what I got from Alice being a robot in the real world. And since Alice is a robot Asuna wins in the real world and probably also the virtual world. Spoiler for I think this is probably true: Kazuto needs to return to the real world with Asuna to have the ultimate gaming child...

Velsy Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2008	I just finished chapters 1 - 25 of the First Volume my question is Spoiler: Are the continuing volumes all side stories of the SWO world they were in. Plus characters I've never seen before who are in the image thread apart of those side stories? and secondly, does it mention if Kirito eventually finds Yuuki after waking up? or you just presume he would?
