DragonOsman already posted some example. Her crush is pretty obvious. You'd have to be blind not to see it.

[Valgaaf]

Ok. It seems it's useless to agrue with KiriAsu haters since they live in their own delusions. Here is the link I mentioned earlier. If anyone is interested in real things that happened in the matter of romantic relationship till end of volume 18, fell free to enter and read.

I hope that this explained everything.

Also, as for Alice, yes, she is Asuna's rival in swordmanship and being Kirto partner in fighting, but certainly not love rival.

If that's what you want to believe, be my guest. But her crush is plenty obvious.

To clear the air let's say we have our own interpretations of some events. Of course no ill feelings between us, bro

[DragonOsman]

Dude (or gal, whichever you are), take back what you said about me being a KiriAsu hater, please. I'm not a KiriAsu hater; in fact, I'm in full support of the pairing. My posts should already show as much, if you were to carefully read them. I'm only saying that I'd also be fine with bigamy between Kirito, Asuna and Alice.

Also, Alice does love Kirito. The thing I mentioned earlier shows it. And unless the spoiler I read once from the web novel version is false, after getting out of Underworld, Alice went to talk to Kirito's parents about whether she could marry him or not.

Edit: Okay, so the spoiler where Alice met Kirito's parents in the real world is false. But Volume 17 Chapter 20, at the part I mentioned earlier, does show that Alice loves Kirito.

[KnightShade]

Sorry this isn't the wiki or r/sao, people are not going to pretend like the other female characters don't comprise a pseudo harem for the sake of propping kirito just because we follow SAO. have your view but dont force it on us.

Ok, I if offended you by saying you are KiriAsu hater I am sorry. Maybe I misundetsood something - my bad. If the spoilers you are refering are from this forum written by Flere, then they are no false, but heavily biased. Please read the discussion sword art online wikia page I linked earlier and you understand what I mean

And I am male

Are you maybe reffering to my posts? If so, I don't want to force my opinion on anyone. I am far from that. I only want to explain some things, because there seems to be much confusion about spoilers.

If this wasn't for me please ignore what I have written.

New Alternative volume but it's not Gun Gale anymore. Also has a different author and artist. Author is Watase Souichirou and artist is Ginta. Looking at the synopsis, it seems to be about the Sleeping Knights, Yuki's guild.

Nah, it takes place in the game "Asuka Empire", which is the game from "Sister's Prayer". Same game Yuuki and her sister played, but completely new cast.
Gsimenas from DreadfulDecoding is already translating it I think. (first two chapters were released in Dengeki Bunko Magazine already)

As has already been said, and like I mentioned on the wiki thread: Alice has shown a lot more affection for Kirito than just "admiration and loyalty".

[hamazura]

any tl;dr of what happened after eugeo RIP? lost interest after best character died to power up kirito

as in LLenn and co? if so, count me back in!

[Rageth]

No, not LLenn and co.
Looks like a completely new cast.

Dunno if GGO will continue, but Clover's Regret is a completely different story

[KnightShade]

oh... i'm open to the concept i guess?

[sbnz0r]

Hey guys,I started the world of anime with YYH when I was a kid, now I am almost 29 I have been watching Naruto and Bleach for years and well now that they ended, I also like Fairy Tail very much but switched from anime and manga reader to anime only EN pref, so now I am on hiatus. but eventually I got convinced to watch One Piece and now it may have become my favorite, so here I was watching some AMVs, and I came across Sword Art Online, the amw was very interesting so I am asking the same now, what do you think about it I checked it out so it's from 2009 , is it worth trying? or what other anime do you recommend ? Best Regards.

Alice:『…私は、すでに多くのリアルワールド人たちと交流を重ねています。見知らぬ世界でひと りぼっちの私を、彼らは励まし、元気付けてくれました。色々なことを教え、色々な場所を案 内してくれました。私は彼らが好きです。それだけではない……ひとりのリアルワールド人を、 私は愛してすらいます。いまは会えないその人のことを考えると……この、鋼の胸ですら張り 裂けそうなほどに…』

Translation:『...I, have met with people of the real world many times. In this strange world where I'm all alone, they encouraged me, cheered me up. They taught me many things, showed me to lots of places. I like them. But that's not all...... There is alone a person in this world, I love him. Now that I think I might not be able to see him again anymore...... this mechanical chest feels like splitting apart...』

This is when Alice responded to some unreasonable demands from the real world reporters in a press release about Project Alicization.

There you go. That's a bit of a rough translation, doesn't sound really good but it should not be wrong. Alice DOES love Kirito.

I read the wiki link above, it strays off topic before long. What we are talking about here is whether or not Alice views Kirito romantically, and she does; whatever Kirito might feel toward Alice doesn't matter.

No one doubts the KiriAsu pair. Kirito x Asuna is already established as the end game pair from the start, and it's not going to change. It's true that Kawahara once said he would write an end where they got married. But not until everything is resolved, now that he's still uncertain about the future direction of SAO. You, or KiriAsu fans in general are just being insecure.

Kawahara said that only 2% of her feelings for Kirito are special. The rest are loyalty and admiration.

Read my post on page page 272 regarding this. And don't take personal replies to fans from an author on twitter seriously. They won't state anything outright. That's heavily down to interpretation.

[Aling11]

Was it ever stated if while Asuna was asleep in SAO and ALO if Sugou did anything to Asuna's real body (kissing, rapey, etc.)? And what happened to the 400 year old Kirito clone that got copied from Alicization?

[Rageth]

It's doubtful Sugou did anything too extreme to Asuna's real body. Especially seeing as he would have been monitored. Kissing? Maybe. But according to his conversation with Asuna, he wanted to see her submit to him. He could take her by force, but he found more gratification in having her give herself to him, so he probably would have waited for her to be brainwashed before anything.
When Kirito popped up, his desire to have her submit was just overwritten by his desire to make Kirito suffer.

At least that's my head-canon. And I doubt Kawahara would actually have let Sugou do anything, anyways.

As for the Kirito clone... who knows?

[XFire]

He never touched her. Sexually, anyway. That'd be kind of hard to cover up.

And the clone got copied into one of those soul matrix things by the guy who woke them up, along with the copy of Asuna.

[-Hikaru-]

Kawahara just updated 2 new Cradle of the Moon chapters on his website wordgear. After 7 years.

I am new to the Forum I hope not to be a nuisance .

I have to admit that I'm a big fan of SAO, recently is one of the LN more entertaining that I have seen and Reki script is amazing, I just got abreast with the LN (also including with another creation of Reki, Accel world), currently the arcs that more I liked are "Aincrad" and "Alicization" both arches are too good , although the arc of "Phantom Bullet" not is bad.


Something that I loved was the crossover of SAO and Accel World which was a SS story of the fight of Kirito vs Silver Crow (this fight was the best, although the result was somewhat predictable, after all Reki was not going to put a very obvious result). I hope carry me well with everyone .
