Hey, normal damsel in distress do not ESCAPE FOR HERSELF :3 yeah, she couldn't finish the job, but her effort was crucial. Still was bad puting Asuna in a birdcage xD
I feel so lucky that I waited 10 years to watch SAO so I got to see Abridged immediately after experiencing the show. (IMO Part 1 is the second best Isekai of all time.)
@@Delta-lu5kf The fact that Kirito actually 1v1'd the boss that normally should have required a raid was an awful choice. his over-the-top OP'ness really kills my enjoyment honestly
I actually liked this arc especially Kirito more than Aincrad because it exposed how vulnerable the MC was the entire time hiding most of his baggage in the first arc and then attempt to reinvent himself. Even though he was "JUST SO COOL" breezing through the sequel game, its obvious it was taking everything to keep himself from shattering every two episodes despite his macho act.
It also kind of makes sense that he can just breeze through the sequel game. He kept his stats from playing 2 years 24/7 of the other game with no level cap whereas everyone else presumably has to work or go to school or do something other than playing the game. His character's stats should simply be far and away completely above everyone else. Honestly, this sequel should have been even easier than it was to breeze though.
@@necoom true, only reason he had more trouble as a lvl 96 and lvl 1 is because of how ALO is designed. It had no numerical lvls if I recall correctly, relied more on real skill
7:27 iirc, that poster is actually the character figure that was used for the advertisement of the game, and is one that you could get if you're lucky, and Suguha was just that lucky. I think this was mentioned in like the OVA, or whatever that hour long episose thing was, but yeh
Part 2 is definitely a guilty pleasure as a follow up to Part 1, but I still feel like the premise does add substance in that it avoids the trope of "Wake Up The World Is Perfect Now" after beating the final boss in Part 1. The second half of SAO just should have been condensed into six episodes instead of 12.
This arc is very underrated, they're things in Fairy Dance I like more than in Aincrad. Suguha/Leafa as well is so underrated, personally she's my fourth favorite SAO character.
I just feel pain after seeing elfheim arc , I have a novel idea but in Swiftlands world theme elfs are very crucial plotline there with elf tribes that build with emotions and how to interact with it most important ones : Wood (peace) , Sylvan (loyalty) , Twilight (Despair) , Dark (Enthusiasm) with Fin the main protagonist of elves being wood but with a twist (Adaption) . Then it goes Thorfin storyline but having some to rely on as a good compass against leader of Twilight elves who tries as much as he can to destroy his hope even that wood tribe being literally anti twilight that succeed in the end with that twist in the end , having some cast around him Aura elf as a friend , Sylvan as a hope , Dark to spice up with bad genocidal friend and Twilight his chained rode to darkness . That just about Fin prospective without talking about origins of elves , even lots of other creatures in Swiftlands with other protagonists of their own species moreover there is nine worlds to discover I mostly still have only 4 with some plot and build up till now . Look at all of that and seeing that arc what a great loss of potential .
My favourite part of this season was the credit sequence on the final episode. Because that means the show is over, right? They wouldn't make more of these, right? Like with Guns or AI for example, right?
If you think that was a lot of sidetracking, then don't get me started about all the skipped story arc that happened after the diplomatic fight and the time Kirito and Leafe reached the tree (notice that the system says it was 4am when they get there despite still being daytime after the fight was over). One could argue that it is a good thig they skipped that, doing so pretty much ruined the Excalibur arc in season 2. And then people ask me why I think Accel World is vastly superior to SAO...
And very much destroyed SAO for me. I just imagined Kirito went to the police, show the photo of Asuna that other players somehow screen capture in the game and tell them to search though Rect or whatever the name of the company Sugou was running. Untill he went to prison serving his life sentence for trapping everyone in the game. And also traumatized Asuna by §*xual assaulting her in game. Which is so unforgivable and I'll never get over it now I've seen what he's done. I just wanna torture him myself but thank goodness Kirito managed to beat him somehow.
It was used as a scapegoat for the entire first season until everyone got the greenlight to hate on SAO properly/realized that the writing didn't just drive off a cliff in between arcs 1 and 2.
I love how you look even more dead on each new outro. Obviously it's the kirito effect, which drains you life for each sao related anime you have to watch. Hope you don't end up dead after the other SAO animes left (?
Jokes apart, In the Sword Art Online Progressive series, Reki actually does improve the anime plot by retelling from Asuna's perspective. I watched all of SAO seasons and your reviews did give a different perspective. I really liked SAO and was dissappointed with this hit and miss. Watch SAO Aria of a Starless night before the second progressive move releases this year; it's better and basically meant to be what the original Aincrad arc was from SAO (2012). Also, in the progressive movie- both Kirito and Asuna are even more cool than this.
I like how the "just so cool" counter carries over because he's JUST SO COOL
No wonder every single girl fawns over him... cuz he's just so damn COOL
He is just to cool I agree
😂
🙌
The holy comment
Because, he just so COOL!
Hey mistah. I amu madu scientistu. Itso coolu! Sunuvabich.
Season 1 of SAO is the anime version of.
“They had us in the first half I’m not going to lie” meme
"Kirito is gonna fight the most skilled player of the entire game."
"Oh so it's gonna be hard, right?"
"Nope, it's super easy, barely an inconvenience."
Amazing reference
I did not know their were more parts now I can binge watch and continue saying "BECAUSE HE'S JUST SO COOL"
"After creating what is arguably the best SAO, they took one look at it and said "You know what would make this better? NTR, Racism and incest.""
Equinox 2022
If this is my legacy then good
"After having a fight as useless as Rias Gremory's clothes"
Never before have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with xD
I can't believe Kirito is this cool
Yes, "Make Asuna Great Again". 👍👍👍
Hey, normal damsel in distress do not ESCAPE FOR HERSELF :3 yeah, she couldn't finish the job, but her effort was crucial. Still was bad puting Asuna in a birdcage xD

(IMO Part 1 is the second best Isekai of all time.)
Kirito is the embodiment of plot armor, change my mind
Dude can't win a fight solo to save his life.
The fact that he consistently fails or requires help from other characters disproves this.
who says SAO doesn't have tank class
Man gets his ass beat by all the villains lol
@@realah3001plot armor is about not dying
winning is about strategy, which sao also lacks

This video is even better just listening to it while working idk I think the audio memes make it better maybe I'm just weird
Damn, I've got good timing. Just finished watching your Akame ga Kill review, and I see "new video, 3 minutes ago"
My statue now bitches
Your videos never fail to make me laugh

Can’t wait for the next video of sword art online
Nice video like (almost) always ! I recommand reviewing "Welcolme to demon school Iruma-kun", because it's JUST SO COOL !
Why the headset? Have you already forgotten? Yui has been saved inside the memory module of that headset.

Ahh Alfheim, it certainly is one of the arcs of all time

Well you convinced me, I am subscribing right away!
I would like how you described that part of a scene as the most necessary scene in all of SAO but I am not ok. I am traumatized.
0:00 my worst nightmare why dad I’m going back to vr
0:59 this sound horrifies me. Re:ZERO is probably my favorite anime but god damn if it ain't horrifying sometimes
As a reward, I shall give you The Seadooo
This arc is very underrated, they're things in Fairy Dance I like more than in Aincrad. Suguha/Leafa as well is so underrated, personally she's my fourth favorite SAO character.
we don't talk about this arc
7:34 I'm sad that you didn't mention he's basically Shinji from Fate, since they share the same VA

That just about Fin prospective without talking about origins of elves , even lots of other creatures in Swiftlands with other protagonists of their own species moreover there is nine worlds to discover I mostly still have only 4 with some plot and build up till now .
Look at all of that and seeing that arc what a great loss of potential .
Basically sao main vallains: Hahahahaha I am the admin you can't defeat me!
Kirito: Yeah but I am me
Kirito : yeah but you aren't mc
It actually starts getting good at mother rosario(sort of) and gets really good at alicization but you have to get through so much mid to get to it.
You should review the Abridged as well , it's really funny and somehow fixed most (if not all) the problems the original had .
New outro lunar is a welcome surprise
Tbh you should add ballsdeep69 screen time counter because he's the best character of sao
Abridged version is canon and you can't change my mind
Ah yes, the Baba Yaga. The man who beat the shit of Don Fluffles army, a true legend among the players.
That is a parody of the orignal. Does it even count?
Kritio being op in game is explained in 3rd season
Man can't find himself a second sword for the entire anime, but sure has no trouble finding more and more "Objects"
LMAOOO they are just sword carriers to him
Hi can you do a "Mahouka koukou no rettousei" review where we have the biggest gary stu of all time lmao
part 2 baby!!!!!!!
Bro ur titles are so accurate
well the worst arc for sure, but are we ignoring the greatest bullsht? How can a coma patient get basically sold in marriage by her parents? I wonder
correction there is no such thing as "kirito effect", there is only "Matsuoka harem effect"
Bro i love when you change the tier from "budget hacker" to "bring back asuna" and still let the others in the same tier
Damn I love this new season of berserk
If they just focused the entire first season on Aincrad, this could've been much better smh
rest in peace og outro Lunar
I m noticing a lack of enthusiasm in your “because hes just so cool” shoutout
‘THE SEADOO’ lol 😂
It was pretty dumb for Kirito not changing his game name in Alfhime.
His name is Andrew? I've legitimately only known him as Tiffany for years...
I had to rewrite my script after looking up his name because same
To be fair, there are many names he goes by.... Mountain Slayer.... Thunder Lion.... The Chocolate Axe.
But alas the one pulling the strings was always the alfheim naming screen guy
So a crazy thing I learnt is that in Japan it's not weird to marry your cousin
it's not lol its a cultural thing
Love ur vids
If you finish this anime you should try durarara
My guy a daily upload? You've changed
Lol I have always had this schedule
Alicization is quite good (competitively)
Nothing like good quality entertainment while in the middle of a Typhoon 😆
Stay Safe!
Back on the asuna cam 4:13
Trust me the last 2 season which are the underworld are pretty good
Oh my god, this is MARIO!
He really is so cool
But he's just so COOL!!!!
Hey lunar try the new cyberpunk edgerunner so worth to watch
Wednesday
At least this isn't the worst ark. I do like Sao a lot though.
I wonder if lunar will do the spin off gungail anime
I might
Just so cool
Kirito effect!! 🤣🤣
Loved me some sis x bro romance
Seek help
Go touch some grass
What program do you use to edit your videos?
premire pro
My favourite part of this season was the credit sequence on the final episode.
Because that means the show is over, right?
They wouldn't make more of these, right?
Like with Guns or AI for example, right?
Can you do SAO Abridged ,
Please !
So Outro Luna was killed by his other multiverse counterparts lmao
The multiverse of Lunar has began

And then people ask me why I think Accel World is vastly superior to SAO...
I can see where the root of Morden isekai was planted
Can you review cyberpunk edgerunners
Wednesday😀
Ah yess, the arc that killed the reputation of SAO for worse
And very much destroyed SAO for me.

@AfterthymeGaming on top of that the whole idea of siblings incest feels wrong, ik they aren't blood related but still
@@AfterthymeGamingalso that rape scene scarred me
the cool counter is killing me
What is the sfx from 0:59? The schizophrenic screaming or whatever it is.
Re:Zero
Rex Orange County peak music
"EMo"
🙏 yes more
2nd season is worse than this. 3rd season is good though
cannot stress how this arc just ruined SAO for me.
i will admit Kirito is just so kool tho
best part of my day🥰
Dont tell anyone but I think your pretty cool too🤫
UNLIMITED ALABAMA WORKS
Ok this one is pretty good
I hated this arc so much it ruined everything I love about SAO
4:14 nom nom
3:12 zoro spotted
The best SAO is still Stabilized Aqueous Ozone, that shit be good
Review code geass
Review SAO Abridged
The better version of this
I love how you look even more dead on each new outro. Obviously it's the kirito effect, which drains you life for each sao related anime you have to watch. Hope you don't end up dead after the other SAO animes left (?
Lol I rarely get sleep the more I do youtube. So I continue to look more dead

me waiting for war of underworld ep
I was hoping you would skip this one...
do u prefer to watch anime subbed or dubbed?
Just curious...
Subbed because I watch it in 2x speed to meet my weekly requirements so I can read fast but listening that fast is hard
@@LunarEquinox I see your point.. Cool man.. Looking forward to your next anime reviews...
anyone pausing at 6:41?
Did not like anything between the Aincrad arc and Alicization. At least Alicization is good
Cyberpunk edge runners (dub)?
