Ingame (i.e. inside the story) his game avatar would look and sound different from his real life one. (that and in anime medium everyone looks the same from the get-go anyways). |

Firstly he doesn't look exactly like him, even if we take the elve-ears out of the equation. In a game where you can freely change your appearance at the beginning you won't imagine anyone looks like his real self or even has his real gender. Secondly although that is not conveyed in the anime, it should be clear that they don't sound the same. That would be simply impossible as the NerveGear/Amusphere couldn't possibly know how your voice is like. Remember, when you are saying sth in a VRMMO you don't say anything in real so you can't simply use a microphone for transmitting the voice. |

Fair enough, it was close enough to my theory on it, but I wasn't sure. Thanks for all the input, now I can focus on why the subbers can't make up their mind on how to spell "Lyfa". :3

OK. Someone appears to have nudged the grauitous fanservice slider up more than few notches.
And one of my biggest complaints about this arc. Sugou's such a massive pile of villian cliches that it's hard to take him seriously. Between the creepy near rapist, mad scientist, corrupt corporate executive, megalomaniac and sadistic tale teller, when does he find time to sleep? |

It's easy to see why she finds it easy to get along with Kirito as he makes no assumptions at all. He even argues against her some when she offers to help him out. So the free spirited Suguha gets along a lot easier with Kirito as her taging along with him is totally her own choise and nothing he assumes is his right. |

Just watched the episode. I agree that not much is happening, but I still enjoy. Partly due to Suguha fanservice .
Ok seriously though, somehow I enjoy this arc a bit more than the previous one. Maybe it’s because there’s not a lot of time-skip/period-jump so that I can slowly understand the characters’ motivation and development. I also have to commend Kirito for standing up for Leafa even if it means facing (online) death at the hand of Sigurd . Btw, does Recon’s weird standing manner is due to Suguha always hit him in the stomach with her Shinai? Also, does Recon feel the "pain" when Leafa stepped on his foot? Seeing his reaction, it seems like that.

This arc is really about delicious Suguha.
Quite a change from SAO's one episode in a arc style in ALO, but it allows further expansion of the universe they are in. Though the storytelling at times does feel dated and too forced at times. |

Or Kawahara could've done a completely different story about how Asuna's parents don't want her seeing Kirito and they have to use a new MMO to continue their relationship while recovering from the mental trauma of SAO. The notion that putting Asuna in a cage and threatening her with rape is the only way the story could've gone is absurd -- it's just the writer taking an easy route full of bad, cliched writing and cardboard characters. |

People in real life have actually been kidnapped, locked up and raped in real life, so to say that Asuna's situation is absurd is very very offensive and insulting. Good day |
