As usual, you're misinformed. The first Alicization light novel came out in 2012. If they started out as web novels first, then it's even older. I'm not going to look into it more because I don't want to run into spoilers. The games are based on the light novels, sure as hell not the other way around. I could see a possibility of the Eugeo having a crush on Kirito, but from what I can tell of the first episode, OP, etc. they'll probably just be bros. Even then, that would at least be a new kind of relationship to see Kirito in.

48 minutes! It's like a mini-movie! Woo! I take it just the first episode is like this? Show looks really pretty. Aww, cute little ragamuffin Kirito! Tickle wars! That guy looks like a blonde Kirito, except his hair is softer and not as straight and spikey as Kirito's. Alice... in Wonderland, perhaps? Yep! Why do they have to chop down this stupid tree? Yeah I don't think it's a good idea to go to this cave. Just to make food last longer? Why do they keep drawing an S? They really don't want anyone going out of bounds in this game. Just wall off the cave! Cool light power. The dragon is dead? Looks smaller than the one in the story, as does the treasure pile. So it was a guardian dragon. Wonder if an "Integrity" Knight was responsible, like they said. Eugao didn't try to pick up the sword. This could be like an Excalibur situation. NOOOOO SHE TOUCHED THE DARK TERRITORY! Okay that thing gray featureless head thing was creepy as fuck. Wow, turned over his daughter just like that. Kirito stopped by some sort of energy from the knight? Why is Alice smiling now? Not so sure the Forces of Darkness are the bad guys and the "Integrity" Knights are the good guys in this situation, regardless of naming and seeming elemental affinity. Woke up, Kirito was full-diving. Cool, Sinon is still playing GGO, and everyone else is joining in. Loving everyone's GGO look, especially Asuna. Kirito still has his stupid Girlito avatar, though. Silica with the machine gun! So are these guys soldiers training, like the ones in GGO Alternative? Or... wait, red eye... is that the other Death Gun brother? Those girls playing pool were cute. Shino still looking cute. Kirito has lost weight and is short of sleep. Just because his heart rate is okay doesn't mean this isn't affecting him negatively. Not so sure he should keep doing this job. Kikouka was the guy investigating Death Gun, right? So is he asking Kirito to investigate this shady-seeming company, or just said here's a job opportunity? Kirito said to be on guard around him but he didn't seem so bad to me. Shino-non? I haven't heard that honorific before. What's that all about? Why does she give a shit about Shinkawa? The guy was a creep. She knows he was just pretending to be her friend as a front, right? He liked her because she killed a guy. Somehow I think there's more important things to be concerned about than the next Bullet of Bullets tournament. Asuna watching Kirito's heart beat. I agree with Shino, that's kind of weird... Yup yup yup naming her Alice was no coincidence. This is relating to Alice in Wonderland. Augma? Are they referencing Ordinal Scale? Still haven't gotten around to watching that. Why do they keep saying things in English, like Dark Territory, and Soul Translator? Wow, that was a LOT of technobabble. I'm not even sure Data could follow all of that. Was what Kirito said about the brain anywhere close to correct? I know I've never heard the thing about dreams that feel like hours were only a few minutes, before. Full-dive tech is more advanced in America. And Kirito wants to move there! Isn't that where his dad, well, technically his uncle and Suguha's dad, I think, is working? Ahh, the ever not present off-screen anime parents! "I can't live without you, Asuna!" Nice hug and kiss. So she'll go with him. So the show is admitting we didn't get the full motivation and explanation for Kayaba, and we may yet still learn it. But Kirito thinks he would be continue to be manipulated by Kayaba if he went solely down that path, and he's probably right. Wait wait, the other Death Gun brother? So this is the real him. Kirito and Asuna really need to get body guards! And probably Shino, too! GAH YOU END IT THERE! EVIL CLIFFHANGER! So, it looks like we won't just be dealing with Rath, Underworld, and Alice, but Death Gun, as well. Interesting. Can't say I expected that. This should be good. Can't wait for next week!

Well that sucks. Booooo! And yeah you're right!

Jack's expressions and reactions in this episode.

Are these the card-playing dogs from the paintings? I actually have this tapestry.

Jack got thrown into the Detroit version of Coruscant. Yeah the wheels aren't going through the middle lol. So wait Jack isn't even his real name?! Then what is it?! And why go by that appointed alias?! Sexy alien dancer girls in the orbs and waitresses! So that is the state of the world and the galaxy under Aku. Just 1000s of years and dogs have evolved this far? Not even dogs should live like dogs. Ahh the first of Aku's robot drones. To be continued!

Recorded and finally got around to watching. The order of places Jack travels to in the world seems dubious. Wouln't he have to go past Egypt on his way to sub-Saharan Africa from Arabia? That first episode is a masterpiece though. It could have been a short film in its own right, if Jack had won there. It's unfortunate that Genndy thought he could stretch things out and do the ending whenever he wanted, then the show gets canceled. At least he was able to come back and finish it. Will be great to sit and back and watch the complete run that should have been. Who knows, maybe the ending wouldn't have been that great if Genndy got to do it when he wanted?

I thought it depended on the amount of power used? Takes a lot to vaporize somebody.

Fuck Purple Mattress. They got rid of purple.com! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple.com

Standing up pedal power! The roar of justice! Saitama got word. He's serious. No it's over already!

Stood up to him. Good guy. But still pissed himself lmao. More heroes! Hey it's that intructor lol.

Who was that pervert?

Total asshole Amai Mask... Changed his hair apparently. Sonic ran away hahaha. He looks like King Zora now.

Hehe made him bite his own monster tongue off.

Lmao Puri Puri Prisoner. Went half power and ripped his shirt his boyfriend made him. Sure, Sonic. Puri Puri Prisoner Angel Style. Aarrrggblblblblblblblblbl! Deep Sea King showing Puri Puri Prisoner how a real combo is done. Sonic vs Deep Sea King! The water has rehydrated Deep Sea King to his true self and power!

Stinger defeated those baddies, but the King is here! Stinger is down! LOL the way they're running. Lmao his voice went crazy. Fishman should be weak to lightning. Just too strong I guess.

Oh. Well, hum.

I thought that guy just did the Super manga, which isn't canon as far as I know. I thought the anime came first, and the manga changed things. Either way, probably no, I wouldn't accept Super as canon in that case, lol.

It seemed like the last ED was forshadowing to this arc, too.

I did too wtf. Had to keep checking to see what you changed. x_x

Was that thing with Gordon drawing faces of the others on rocks and crying and muttering to himself supposed to be funny? Because it was just sad. Cute ED of the girls in schoolgirl uniforms.

Asta caught her. What are you doing, Dorksta. Lmao snapped back into tsundere mode. See you in the temple. Uh-Oh. I knew she was too good to be true.

I think Miroku and Sanji have better hit rates than Finraal. How is she not dead from alcohol poisoning? No fond memories. Aww yes you do, the Black Bulls there to cheer her on. New spell!

And the Silvas are yet even bigger assholes than we thought! Wow what pieces of shit. Stop with that nunsense, Asta!
