We know it will take some time to get used to, but we hope that you guys enjoy our new editing style as much as we do.

[elderboy]

You know, Kirito is my type of “solo player”. We don’t actively search for parties with players, but we work with other players when we need to. It’s more of a secluded player.

The survivors going back to Aincrad and FDVR actually makes sense. Their experience in SAO, in addition to being incredibly traumatic, completely changed their sense of normalcy and even reality. Aincrad was a trap, yes, but they had made it their home. The other survivors were the only ones who now shared their distorted sense of reality. Many had largely resigned to simply accept life on Aincrad and would have been totally disoriented by the outside world.

[Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Kirito force-of-willing his way through being a vegetable to become stronger than the god of the game world of Alicization is just about the most Kirito-thing I have ever heard in my life.
Also, poor Sachi. Curse you, Gary. Curse you and you wanting to save your family.

[troymanansala]

Thanks a lot for this. Kirito really doesn't deserve all the hate that he's been receiving. I know some kept calling him generic, but the fact that he's one of the first of his kind in the anime community sort of counters that claim.

So thank you very much.

[SpammytheHedgehog]

Kirito did everything except an Anime Training Arc.

[Snappukingu]

Fun fact: SAO Light Novel Volume 1 already have Kirito on floor 74 and the story moves forward with some flashback about the first day of the game. Even later volume before alicization are mostly consists of side stories. It's the anime that rearrange the strory into chronollogical order.

[tacticool_weeb]

127 minutes in and I’m remembering my favorite line from my favorite abridged show “ the power of friendship is bullshit!!, violence and swords where it’s at”

[Tasuka]

ayo I fuckin love how you don't cut out when u stutter during mid-segments. that's not sarcasm it just makes it feel more like a conversation than a documentary and it's awesome. keep up the great work, you are really funny.

[Swm]

1:28:18 This breaks my heart and frees tears from my eyes every time.
Kirito has given everything to save Asuna from this purgatory. She is free now, but he will be without her, his everything, for the next 200 years. Strength flees from his limbs and he collapses to his knees as tears swell from his eyes. Tears fall to the stones where his gaze rests low, as he can't even lift his eyes now that his purpose for living, his spirit, her; is gone. "Asuna".
But then a shadow is cast, a voice is heard. "Kirito Kun". He looks up, and there's an angel standing there. "I could never leave you behind", she says. She's given up everything else to be with him.

I want to love someone like that. This scene brought forth that part of me again, that pain and loneliness, the desire to be loved for who I am, of longing for something profound, someone to give my heart and soul to. Maybe part of the reason I was inconsolably bawling when I first saw this is that I know such a love is impossible: a fiction. It's something I can never have, a place I can never reach.

[YamadaRyo]

People seriously forgot when Sword Art Online was THE pinnacle of anime. Until it was hated to oblivion by some youtubers

[amateurfifo]

Man watching The alicization recap had me in tears. I’m confident at this point i can’t get over Eugeo’s death 💀

[aok_MC]

i love how the you guys are actually having fun and using your own voice in these anime recap type videos, unlike some people sounding so lifeless or just using text to speach. props

[ZephyrK_]

Your video was a breath of fresh air when it comes to someone talking about this series. Hyped for Progressive's movies and beyond.

[gamrx]

They should do an aincrad beta arc, it would be awesome to see kirito's adventures in the beta phase, this could become his training or experience arc as this is where he learned most about the game.

[simply-oli]

This dude should be famous he saved so many people and won the most popular games

[siaorihara]

38:38 ok while I agree that they had lots of unnecessary things in the ALO arc, I will say this about Asuna being a “damsel in distress” that people seem to forget about. *1.* She is in a game that was meant to be a trap for her, *2.* With what Creepy Basturd Fairy King told her of how he could easily alter her if he wanted to to make her his(plus the previous point), we can assume that means that she CANT escape even if she wanted to. Remember her vision was blocked when directly looking at the passcode for her cage? Plus the only time she tried to escape she was caught immediately. And the only reason she could escape was cause if the mirror, *and 3.* she doesn’t have her skills at all from SAO, like Kirito, nor could get stronger, like normal players, so she can’t fight her way out.

I’m not justifying her being “OOC”, I’m just saying that keeping in mind that she is in a VR game in an area that is tailored for trapping her I can see why she is the way she is in the game.

I do think that the ending with the defeat of Overon could have been better tho. The m0lesting scene was really unnecessary.

[MillenniumVT_Official]

After loving the series but getting lost in some of the technical explanations, videos like these really help tie the story well. Thanks!

I’m a lizbeth fan personally, but knowing their interactions in the novels and manga I’d choose Argo the info broker
