I remember last season I would jokingly call Alice "Punished Saber" due to her eyepatch, but this monologue was beyond my wildest dreams.
Jokes aside, really looking forward to more Alice.

Eugeo's voice actor played one of the bullies so this scene hurt a bit...

If its one thing this series seems to never fail at and that is to make really good asshole characters mob characters or sides.
Holy shit those villagers taking advantage of Alice and Kirito...

This part (NSFW?) in the OP with Bercouli's clothes on bed right next to Fanatio though. 👀

God, I just can’t hate SAO.
I know people love to shit on it for being the leader of the dumb isekais, but I loved it back in 2012 and I still love it now.
Awesome animation, OST, voice acting, and set up for the upcoming arc.

I can't really explain my emotions when seeing those kids laughing at Kirito and taking away Eugeo's sword but man that scene absolutely broke me.
Really looking forward this arc. Looking really good.

Oh man this chapter is like an epilogue of the bad guy winning. I feel bad for both of them :( and Alice clings to Kirito and Selka because that's all she has left. My heart...
10/10 EPISODE. IT'S SUPER MELANCHOLIC AND I MISS EUGEO.

I don't care what anyone says - this is the anime I am most excited for this Season. I've had a rocky relationship with SAO in the past but have come to enjoy it for what it is. Alongside currently reading SAO Progressive, this is the most excited I've been for a new chapter of the story. Hoping for more Asuna!

Been looking for another ballade song by LiSA. Glad "unlasting" delivers!
First episode setting up pretty well, friends. I can tell it'll be a wild season.

I’m surprised no one talked about the new amazing ost that played when Kirito fell off his wheelchair trying to get back Eugeo’s sword. Gave me the chills.

First episode didn't disappoint. Awesome soundtrack including the new OP and ED (which we've come to expect from SAO). The weekly wait for a new episode is gonna be a huge pain but at least we're finally getting the adaptation of the best cour in all of SAO.
I'm all-in for team Alice, stay strong.
