Ok, I'm actually still a little confused, since we just had an episode that had several primary purposes, one of which was to highlight how overleveling can making things easy, yet Asuna is acting like clearing this floor in the 50s is hard work, despite us knowing that at least in the last episode, the top players are already 3/4th of their way up the tower. Gah, my head hurts. Unless what players like Asuna are doing are just organizing and lending advice, while letting the level appropriate players handle clearing the dungeons and the floor boss?

That said, the rest of your post has a lot of points that can probably be "answered" by novel readers and I again just want to remind the novel readers to keep their mouths shut in this thread. As for the episode itself, my main thought was "keep her away from that window!", though for a slightly different reason than what ended up happening.

I think the lesson here is to not name your guild after the apple of discord. That's just asking for trouble.

That was unexpected when Kirito saw Asuna wake up. It should be Kirito paying for the meal, not the other way round.
The music that was used when Yuroko got stab near the end did not really fit.

I don't recall which floor they were on last ep (35th?) but just because Kirito is level 70+ doesn't mean the currently floor is in the 70's. The anime has spent a bit of time hinting that folks typically heavily overlevel the current floor's content for safety, and Kirito as a solo player would have to seriously overlevel the content to survive solo. |

I could be wrong though. We need the novel readers to clear this up for us *hint*

Only problem with this episode is that I wish they would have expanded more on the issue of the NPCs.
It was really interesting to me to see Kirito (who views the lives of NPCs are just as precious as an actual person) and Asuna (who views NPCs as just programs that will eventually respawn if killed) Hopefully they bring the issue up again.

Asuna is back at last...!!! Asuna-chan wa kawaii...
The "sleeping on the grass scene " was so cheesy and sweet that I could melt just seeing them together and also Asuna getting embarrassed by it... They're an owesome pair indeed. About the killings, it really change the mood after half the episode.. the weapon used fro the killing seemed designed so its hard for anyone to pull it out. The next episode might become darker again.... |

Oh Asuna how you have quickly grown! From the first episode where you were the quiet, lone wolf type, into the commanding player that's not afraid to say how she feels. She was definitely her same old usual cute self though, that's for sure, the gif a few pages ago proves it
Haha, and it appears Asuna is better known than Kirito on the upper levels. Perhaps because she's always sticking up there and Kirito is in the lower levels at times. That would make sense, keeping one commander on the top levels just in case. Kirito and Asuna must have a lot of cofidence in themselves if they decided to sleep outdoors, vulnerable where any higher up killer could attack them. There's no telling who's still out there and if they're friendly or foe. As Asuna mentioned, PK (Player Killers) can easily make you accept a duel when you're asleep. Damn, poor Yoruko, even in a game the experiances are still equally frightening The game really is just like real life, motives, revenge, mystery, insanity etc etc. It was all too much for her to handle. I just knew as soon as she sat on that window seal what was going to happen This anime is the type of anime I could probably watch all day and never get tired off it. It's really tempting to just leave off at this point and wait for it to finish, then spend the day watching every episode with satisfaction. At the same time, I enjoy discussion the new episodes with everyone and the anime is just like a drug, I see it, I must watch it

Unless the translations failed horribly. Or did we time skip backwards between last episode and this one? I admit I haven't paid the most attention to the dates at the beginning of each episode, and have assumed we're just continuously skipping forward.

I didn't watch the full episode, there's probably a time stamp in there somewhere (35th Floor: Miche is where it starts), but since Kirito's gear is mostly unchanged I'd assume not much time has passed? Apparently the 47th floor is where the dungeon with the rare item flower thingie for beast tamer's is. Kirito also stated his house was on the 50th floor in that episode. |
