Sword Art Online – 04
「黒の剣士」 (Kuro no Kenshi)
“The Black Swordsman”
So how about some loli fanservice?

「犯人はこの中にいる」 (Hannin wa Kono Naka ni Iru)
“The Culprit Is in the Room”
There were no major surprises this episode but rather the confirmation of everything we’ve been able to deduce about what’s been going on.
「赤鼻のトナカイ」 (Akahana no Tonakai)
“The Red-Nosed Reindeer”
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose. Many things shone in this episode. Kirito’s nose was not one.
This time around, I’ll be focusing on a soundtrack by Kousaki Satoru, a member of MONACA – a specialised music outsourcing studio notable for working on things such as the recently concluded Haiyore! Nyaruko-san and the brilliant soundtrack to Nier. As for Kousaki himself, his notable works include Haruhi (all three series), Kannagi and of course, the entire Monogatari series to date. Warning: Potential spoilers. Probably. |

「アラームアリ時計ナシ」 (Arāmu ari Tokei nashi)
“Alarm, but No Clock”
From events in this episode, I get the feeling that things aren’t quite as rosy in Team A as they’ve appeared on the surface.
「ビーター」 (Bītā)
“Beater”
The spirit of co-operation is one of those glorious things that make an MMO such an incredible experience. Watching people come together, uniting under solid leadership, standing back to back, helping each other when they fall… it’s really something beautiful to behold.
「宇宙の話をしよう」 (Uchuu no Hanashi o Shiyou)
“Let’s Talk About Space”
In a sense, it feels like a fair bit of this episode was spent giving us a subtle refresher of some of the events that happened earlier in the series.
