There is another possibility other than sending harmful information to the brain.
Since people are fully immersed in the virtual world but their real bodies remain still, I can only imagine that somehow the Amusphere interferes with the motor neurons. This is something quite different from sending signals, and potentially a lot more harmful. Now the heart is also a muscle but it is regulated by a completely different part of the brain so if the Amusphere was created with care there shouldn't be any chance for it to block the signals that tells the heart to beat. But theoretically if you can block a signal going from the brain to the body, you can block them all. In the end I think that for someone to be able to cause heart attack on people playing in GGO you need to assume that there are two major flaws. One in the Amusphere itself, another in the game for letting someone hack it and go unnoticed.

Tbh, I think only Sachi has the power to derail his relationship with Asuna ... and even that is hypothetically only like a 50/50 chance. (Zero in reality, since she's dead.) Regarding SAO, it's a custom. Same reason why people in SAO never talked about their past. |

I don't see why messing with the autonomous nervous system is more nonsensical than messing with the senses. I don't know if there's a "stop the heart" signal, but if not, maybe one could fool the brain into inciting the heart to beat faster and faster till it can't take the strain anymore. |

So if they were doing something like messing with the signals from the brain causing the body to effectively kill itself, the Amusphere would trip its failsafe and turn itself off. Assuming, of course, that the Amusphere hasn't been hacked/modified in any way. I guess its also theoretically possible if the people were using Nervegears, which might not have the same failsafes, but I feel like that's something that would have been mentioned by our government employee friend right at the start. |

- And this is pretty much what I believe happened here. Why? Because there won't be anything wrong with the vitals until said command gets executed and the connection thus not be severed before that. Simplicity itself, as Holmes would say.

To put it simply the brain will never cause an immediate heart failure unless it was rendered severely dysfunctional, it will also not cause the heart to beat faster than it can. It might cause a heart failure due to strain and overexertion if something cut out the signals that would notice it of fatigue, but that would take time.

The simplicity of two flaws:
1. Hacking into the seed without being noticed. If this is possible, it means all players using the seed are not safe, so targeting only 3 people from the same game does not make sense. 2. The amusphere has less powerful transceivers due to the SAO scare, so how do you not only bypass the safety measure, hacked up the effect to trigger an overload on the heart to kill someone, without even tampering the amusphere? Simplicity? Nay!

No he better not Asuna is his wife so to speak and they even have a kid pretty much. The way the first season went they are too loyal to each other for that. Another chick to like him sure but to steal him away from Asuna no. His sister would kick his arse for picking some other chic thats not Asuna since he didnt want her.

Really enjoy this episode although there's still some bugging questions I wanna ask. Can anyone explain why the lightsaber was quite expensive for a supposed "useless" weapon in a game about guns? Even Shinon said it was expensive. Do they sell it for decoration or something?

2. Part of the SAO setting is that Japan has largely transitioned to electric motorbikes with automatic transmission. These are gas motorbikes with manual transmission. It would be as problematic as someone who learned on an automatic transmission car to drive a manual transmission car. 3. The overlap between "seriously plays MMORPGs" and "rides full up motorcycles" is probably smaller than you think even in our world. Quote:

I figure it's ok to mention it now since the point already passed and it never gets brought up again for the duration of GGO. |

As for it being save - The IPhones 5c is supposed to be safe too - yet it started burning on a person's pocket. Quote:
Either way the SAO (II) world is not outfitted with death notes so the Amusphere is still the most likely murder weapon.

And it starts burning in a person's pocket because of the trapped heat, inside the pocket, which causes the phone to overheat. Have you heard of the recent story about a girl's Galaxy S4 burned up under her pillow while she was sleeping? The phone needs to cool off. |

1. there would be more then 1 Death Gun 2. real life name and address of the victim. 3. form ep1, the autopsy stated they found normal abnormal. 1 is easy, 2 would require either DG to be one hell of a hacker or someone who work for the GGO company. 3. what kind of weapon/ways of killing someone would undetectable to current autopsy techniques?
