i'd almost argue meeting them was useless if they're gonna die so soon, but their plotting and love sets the stage an the stakes rather nicely

In their few minutes of screen time they are better characters than the likes of Silica and Lisbeth.  And probably some of the only decent people in that Dark Territory.  But yes, sets the stakes and shows Miller is not to be fucked with.

Pretty much.

But also that Miller is just a hilarious extreme caricature.

no...but this series doesn't care much for consistent writing

 

also apparentlly souls are real and this dude can eat them

 

which automatically makes this series more asinine than .hack....not that .hack wasn't also unrealistic but it was better at making things seem believeable

Well we saw people disappear as sparkles before, it's close enough.  We definitely got a sense of souls leaving when Cardinal and Eugeo died.

Yeah I thought they were going for scientific souls with the brain stuff... but they are real because Miller saw that one in the real world.  Well, there have been things like Asuna breaking the game with the power of love to run across the map and save Kirito from that murder guild guy back in Aincrad.

for kirito they just made a normie so his brain could heal

BUT FOR ASUNA, SINCE THEY HAVE ALL THE ADMIN PRIVILEGES AND DESIGN SPECS, THEY HAD GOTDAMN BETTER DROP HER IN AT GOD-TIER SKILL LEVEL RIGHT FROM THE FUCKING BAT

I could write it under a spoiler tag if you want lol.

Eugh, between killing off Dark Knight Blum and his main squeeze, the whole "little boy kills little girl" thing I already knew about, and the ridiculously obvious evilness of absolutely everybody else on the dark side, I'm starting to think this season of SAO may be in contention for my least favorite anime of all time. But let's see if it manages to out-suck Nyaruko-san before I make an official call on it.

Yeah, I wonder how are they have a normal conversation with no delays with a time difference?

my guess is that the shimmer we saw just before the communication started altered the time flow of the game (in that one room) to match that of the outside world temporarily. though, i'd like to see how that affects the in-game events. if every time they want to have a 3 minute conversation with the real world, do the denizens outside the room go like "hm...the emperor hasn't left his chanbers in four days...i wonder what he's scheming..."

I figure they may just move the entire server into real time for communication.  As for why they can't leave it that way who knows.

As for the whole soul thing, I have a suspicion that the guy may be slightly unbalanced and may have imagined what he saw ... then again he did see that lady's boyfriend when he killed her.

Dude, a lot of people consider Alicization and War of Underworld one of the better, if not best, season of SAO, and you say it's contention for your least favorite?  It sure as hell is not worse than the Fairy Dance Arc, the Bount Arc of SAO that we all prefer to pretend never existed!  Then again, you thought "Is this a Zombie?" was good, so...

The show you just mentioned I have never heard of.  I read "Naruto" at first, and you'd be completely justified with that being your least favorite series LOL.  I looked it up... can't say it would be my cup of tea.

My tastes are notoriously hard to place. Sometimes they're understandable, other times they're not, even when I explain myself on them. I could drop a paragraph or two about why Fairy Dance is my favorite SAO arc despite Asuna getting molested twice in it, and you'd still think Aincrad, GGO, and Alicization were superior. But hey, at least you'd know my point of view on the whole thing after that.
