「果ての山脈」 (Hate no Samyaku)
“Endless Mountain”
Even as slow as this episode was, I was still double checking the timestamp frequently in fear that the episode was going to end.
General Impressions
Boy, am I excited for things next week. However this week isn’t next week so let’s continue to talk about all the setup that this week’s episode did.
Based on everything that we’ve seen and all that we’ve heard from Eugeo as he’s explained the Underworld to Kirito, I’m surprised that there are still so many questions that both I (and presumably Kirito) still have. As a virtual world that has both game elements and hyper-advanced artificial arclight intelligence deeply integrated into it, we still have absolutely no idea why it exists the way it does. What we do know is that it’s a new type of technology that has connections to Kirito’s governmental contact — which would make you question what purpose arclight technology has to some of the most powerful people in the country. Toss in that artificial arclight intelligence has an obvious “governor” built into it to prevent it from breaking the rules and it all sounds like that the Underworld might be a place to create, test, and reiterate on this new form of artificial intelligence. If I were to use a real life example to compare it to, it sounds a lot like how the neural networks we use right now work. Which, if that were the case, means the possibility of anomalies is totally possible.
I bring up anomalies since there’s absolutely no reason the first episode would have put so much emphasis on Eugeo’s eye when he tried breaking protocol. Akin to another anime that has its characters in a similar world, I’m really hoping that we get a proper arc for Eugeo that dives into him becoming a truly unique character in a world full of advanced artificial intelligence that are bound to a particular set of rules.
Anyways, after all that’s said and done, it looks like next week is going to be a fantastic one. With a big climax on the way, I can’t wait to see just what happens during Kirito and Eugeo’s first real battle. Hopefully, and I mean this in the best way possible, we’ll get to see both of them kick ass and look cool while doing it.
See you guys next week!

They should just kiss and make up.
Goblins seem to be getting a lot of screen time this season…
Yes, it seems so. If you include Overlord from last season, the current score is good goblins 2, bad goblins 2.
Overlord doesn’t really affect scores as it has two types of Goblins: Enri’s Goblins (created by that item Ainz gave her) which are nice and chill guys, and the native New World Goblins that are stereotypically evil.
Eh I wouldn’t say that. In Overlord even the native Goblins are clearly shown to be capable of peaceful coexistence. Remember Agu and the survivors of his tribe? Heck even random Ogres were made civilized with the right leadership. They are more like another sentient species etc. In Goblin Slayers the Goblins are literally parasites upon mankind and diametrically opposed to them. Unlike the Goblins in say Overlord, they have base instincts that pull them to do terrible things.
It’s fluctlight by the way.
This show is trash. From the little girl nonsense from last season to this slow paced garbage, sword art has really lost what made it so engaging. Its very sad
As far as there is no Asuna it is good.
Mother’s Rosario felt good to me, honestly.
If you dislike Asuna, you’re going to hate the second half of this adaptation LOL.
It’s too soon to know how this season will turn out. Personally I enjoy all SAO & GGO also Mother’s Rosario wasn’t nonsense. Just because certain arcs of the greater story didn’t appeal to every audience doesn’t mean it’s nonsense.
I actually quite like this series because I play the SAOIF game and seeing Eugeo and Alice for the first time in full technicolor compared to the manga is quite an upgrade plus how the art style was formed looks amazing.
So then, did the durability of that stupid tree go down significantly? I couldn’t notice.
And speaking of anomalies, Eugeo’s hesitation feels unnatural. Is it an anomaly, or is it something that was put upon him as a curse (read: programmed)?
It went down by 1 in one hit instead of in hundreds of hits like it usually takes. The Blue Rose Sword is strong.
As for Eugeo that should be revealed soon.
“which would make you question what purpose arclight technology has to some of the most powerful people in the country.”
It didn’t make me wonder that… governments fund plenty of things that don’t benefit politicians. (Grants are like that.) But now I’m certainly wondering about it.
GAAAHHH!!! Why is this boy such a coward!

More like a bug in his programming. Something that Kirito is determined to fix.
Looks like Kirito, Eugeo, and Selka are in trouble. If only there was some sort of hero they could call on; someone with the proper armor and arms to deal with this horde of goblins. Some sort of… Goblin Exterminator or something.
One that is battle hardened with memories of a dead older sister.
maybe a dedicated slayer of that kind of monsters
Levi can do the job.
Watching this season of SAO makes me cry for all the other series with good plot and characters that were butchered due to time constraints and banished to oblivion.
Howdy randomc.net
But the truth is when you use this formula, it becomes REALITY almost instantly!
Keep on reading and pay close attention to what I’m about to reveal: You don’t need a product, list, domains, website, experience, or even MONEY to do it!
This is how SIMPLE it is:
1. Copy a listing from location A
2. Paste it in location B & make $20-$80 every single time… You ALWAYS keep the profit!
ANYONE Can Do This, Even Total Noobs
Literally anyone can pick this up, implement the same day and see Real Results of this formula working VERY FAST, without
working hard, spending a ton of Cash!
You’ll be successful faster than you ever though was even possible.
Is a brand new arbitrage formula – very few people know about it and even less are actually using it.
We focus on an overlooked area when it comes to arbitrage – and it’s pretty crazy because EVERYONE wants these services.
Anyone that does this makes an absolute killing – and there’s no end to how many customers you can have.
If you’ve ever tried arbitrage, you know how POWERFUL it is…
Regular evryday people that aren’t marketers have been using it for YEARS to make a steady online income… but if you think that you know the formula we’re revealing inside THIS FORMULA – think again!
