Well, there were are at least a few people that asked who the Blue Haired Fairy was, in the early pages of the thread. So another two wondering why Asuna was absent from the ending isn't so surprising lol.
But considering that a big chunk of the character design in the anime industry has the same face with just a different hairstyle and color. It's understandable that people would fall into either of two reactions. Those that recognized the color swapped Asuna or those that didn't recognize her even if she had the same voice (and hairstyle to boot) lol. |

Pick up the Light Novel?
But yeah I agree the anime industry seems to have a template for body structure nowadays. They just come and look at the descriptions then go "What crazy hair design and color are we using this time?"

Then again the way it's structured A-1 made the anime complimentary rather than a stand alone. o-o

I've heard about that but haven't read it. It was in the original internet release before they were published. Not that I can't find it if I look for it but still...
Not what I had in mind Quote:
I also went through a few episodes (more like scenes) after reading. They all had little "nods" towards the light novel. It'd be nice if they had explained them better in the anime. If you know they're there you'll notice a brief scene every now and then and go "oooh, I know what he's doing here even though it's a one second scene" . |

It's called 16.5 because it was placed on a separate portion of the author's website back when SAO was a web novel. You didn't miss anything because it it was never intended to be required for the sequence in chapter 16. What BT has up right now is the way things are in the light novel.

I would have thought that so many traumatizing experiences involving VMMO's would leave Kirito maintaining a football-sized barrier between him and any virtual devices. Guess not, and he's just as obsessed with video games as I am. |

Well, u also gotta consider that Kirito did meet Asuna in an MMO, and that fact would help kirito like MMO over any traumatizing experience. Even with Asuna, remember what Asuna said in in ep 13? she despaired every day in SAO until she met Kirito, then she feels that her purpose of coming here was to meet him, and also in ep 10 saying she was scared of her dream of not being in SAO (cause he's here).

Well. I'm glad it's over at least.
Nice as a final episode, and I won't mind seeing more of the franchise, but I won't care if it doesn't happen either. I'm still confused as to the purpose of Suguha and I still think it all turned unbearably cheesy rom-com style. Not sure why the real life confrontation with Sugou was necessary, other than to make the guy look even more annoying and to artficially amp up the drama one last time. Nice to see everyone again though Overall, .hack// is by far the better show of its kind, as this devolved too far into slice of life/harem/romance territory for me to enjoy, but it had it's good parts- particularly the first couple of episodes. A mixed bag, really with lots of wasted potential. If there is a sequel, I hope it could manage to return to how fun the first part of the SAO arc was to watch. |

From my perspective, that scene was actually the only scene that mattered in the entire ALO arc, although to a certain extent the rest were necessary to set it up. Quote:
