One of guild leaders looks more like an idol cosplayer than a team leader. Maybe it's the point. In the game, the real administrative work is run by her cabinet.

It'll just seem really freaky no matter how you put it. Maybe he can claim it was an impulsive action driven by the despair he felt because of his fiancees condition. Still freaky though.

@RF: Indeed, I didn't give a lot of thought about it, but it's not necessary for the point of my post... it is not logical to run around playing a game, instead of trying to save your "girlfriend" whether IRL or in-game.
@C2F: Kirito said in the first episode of Alfheim arc, that he abused his status to get the Asuna's private information from the police, in to her father seemed very greatful... these are a better start then playing a game (especially in the way he does). @Inane: I can not disagree, but personally if it turned into a detective drama or an incest love story, I wouldn't mind |

He's only in the game because he needs to confirm whether his "girlfriend" is really there or not. He's not just "playing a game" for its own sake. If you did give it a bit more thought (at least in terms of the in-story logic), you'd see that it's as logical as it can be as far as things go. His skills as a gamer are his only "weapon" in this fight, and even his decision at the end of this episode was not made without his end-goal in mind. Just getting to the tree as fast as possible is not going to magically solve everything.

I found this episode hilarious.
Especially Leafa's reactions whenever Kirito goes into full on game-nerd mode. Also when she just stops in her tracks and the camera just passes her by when Kirito says he sometimes just snaps and forgets himself in battle. The "illusion" magic was pretty cool. Kind of a role-reversal with Kirito acting as the boss killing players left and right. I thought it was a GREAT point when Kirito even though he knows dying isn't permanent in Alfhelm, he still reverted to "Never Die" "Never let party members die" mentality snap like in SAO. I can see some people's confusion at how Leafa keeps referring it to "Illusion magic" when it really is "Transformation magic" but when I think about it more, those two types of magics in most games, usually end up being in the same type of tree/skillset anyway, so I accept it with a bit of leniency Quote:

People say Kirito when into full game-nerd mode. I say he just being matured.
I have seen so many people saying things like: it is just a game, no one know you on the internet, it is ok to do anything you want. Thanks to that specific mindset you got million of ebay, cc scam/cheat on the internet. Then People lie, cheat, grieve, play horrible pranks like screamer, spread virus, DDoS. |

As far as game-nerd mode, I was thinking when he suddenly went all chummy with the Salamander when bribing him with items, and the face when "I never go back on trades" since it was all very typical gaming behavior.

I love the way the words scroll when they're casting the spells. I like this magic stuff a lot more than swords. Too bad Kirito is still just swinging his sword around.
I wonder if he still be able to use some old SAO sword moves if he remembers the moves well enough in his brain-muscle memory. I know that all the sword-tech is gone and isn't in Alfhelm, so the assist system is gone. But he kind of tried to emulate it when sparring his little sister in real life, so couldn't he try to emulate certain moves still?
