The second sword finally comes out! Yeah…dual blades are pretty awesome. I can definitely understand why Kirito chose to hide it. Even if he doesn’t know how he got the skill, because he’s a beater, everyone would just assume that he’s hiding some special information that he got from the beta and he’d likely be killed for it.
People online can be pretty dumb in the respect. They would sooner think “this guy’s going around acting like he’s better than us” and try to kill him than realize “hey, this guy’s probably our best chance of getting out of this world.” He pretty much soloed that boss, after all.
I guess the anime decided to go a different route with this scene. In the manga, this seemed a lot cooler because the second sword from Lizbeth wasn’t introduced yet. Also, the scene with Asuna questioning Kirito pretty much gives it away. But I can’t really say that showing the “intro” stories was too bad because those flashbacks with Sachi were pretty effective.
Anyways, next week, Kirito confronts the infamous guild leader Heathcliff to try and get Asuna some free time. This is the last part I read in the manga, so I know who wins the duel…feel free to speculate. I’ll just smile and nod because spoilers are lame.
Agreed with you that revealing this chunk of information is extremely risky for him. he will become the center of attention and being solo he’s an “easy” target…:P
but it happened anyway…wonder what’s gonna happen to him
He’ll likely get under the wings of protection of the wing for now, that’s the most reasonable outcome of his battle against the guild leader…:P
well, I head Asuna’s bodyguard position is open…
True enough, that would be perfect to improve their relationship too! Sounds like a plan…:D
seems legit
I doubt Kirito will be delegated into bodyguard duty, He’s MC-kun after all.
hah…I personally see no problem with it
Just asking, mind exchanging links with a fellow aniblogger? I really like how you blog SAO. I already added you in my blogroll. Thanks in advance!
I didn’t mention it, but I think I already added you
online gamer sometime when you have something they don’t they will shout and spam the chat or if they are losing it usually end up in spaming and mocking each other…on the other note you already read the manga huh there is no point in writing who win then thought my sao manga knowledge can help me put on some spoiler on the other note the dual blade was nice isn’t it fast and useful in battle thanks to it’s flexible fighting style unlike the sword and shield…now we only need some archer and some mage in sao then it will be like your average mmorpg…
like I said, this battle against the guild leader is the last thing I remember…after that, I’m just as new to the show as everyone else
T_T too bad there probably wont be archers…mages can suck it, though
