In other words, what you're saying is that "xxxxx" is better simply because it's shown in episode 3 instead of 9. |

As much as I know some people (myself included) would love that, it's not going to happen. At best, it'll probably be insinuated that it happened, but nothing more than that. Unless.. we get a sexy OVA sometime after season 1 ends.. that could also work..

Back on point, I just really, really like those chapters. (The romance buff in me couldn't get enough). Though I would love for it to cover 2 episodes, I can see it being put into 1 if they plan on getting up to Vol. 4.

And yeah, since Lyfa has a VA, it's almost a given that they plan on animating up to volume 4. |

I know what you're saying, and for me as long as they keep the sweet and deliciously awesomeness of Kirito and Asuna's relationship pure and intact, I can be content with that. I myself don't really see the need to add the 16.5 scenario in the anime just to show the bond between them because we, myself included, have read and grown to love them as a pair.
I'm a huge Asuna x Kirito fan because it's a pairing I truly care about and support 100% and I hope that the anime somehow manages to balance both the action and romance without so much as slowing down the pace of the story. A few anime have done this, and I hope SAO doesn't go that route.

Possibly even three? Don't forget that there's even more content after volume 1 with several SS's discussing the two weeks they took a break from the guild They still have to have their "child"

I see it now! 'Eugh. How boring. Did they forget they're stuck in a MMO where death there equates to death in real life? How can they just be so happy?' Let's hope this quote remains a joke. |

Two seems about right. I mean, the fishing part can take one alone, and that adds a bit of action into it.
So far, pacing feels right (as much as can be told from one episode), so I'll be cautiously optimistic. No reason they can't cover 4 vols. A lot of stuff in vol 1 was exposition that will be done merely by having animation to show stuff rather than words to describe it. |

I wonder how we'll see Liz's story. Since we're going chronologically that would be months before he revealed the existence of dual blades at the 74th floor boss fight. So will the anime skip showing Kirito dual blades there?

Well considering that she made a cameo appearance near the end of episode 1, it's a safe to say that chances of seeing will be sooner than we think. I wonder if they're going to do their meetings in flashbacks, or combine the ties in from volume 2 since it pretty much follows volume 1 but what done in sequences ie months and years they were stuck in Aincrad in steps.
That's just my theory, since why give volume 2 chapters cameo appearance since they don't have any relevance to volume 1 if you minus the side-story tie ins from volume 2.

Hmm. So far, we know that they're not adapating the 'First Day' side story and instead are going are adapting the 'Aria in the Starless Night' side story. Maybe it was considered too much of a filler? |
