into the actual episode you got Alice meeting up Eldrie again glad to see you
Alice oh wait you're with him let the sweet drama begin Eldrie then brought up
them having 30 thousand trips versus the fifty thousand on the dark territory
sunlight it's really not anything that inspires real confidence. The SAO anime
actually changed us here giving this line to Eldrie. Originally it was Alice that
mentioned this while flying overhead what makes this whole situation even
more dire was Alice naively hoping that all the integrity Knights would be
available unfortunately you didn't have canola's it knock off clown freezing 10
of them you know just to reset them eight other no-name Knights are either
in the capital patrolling the mountain areas which means down to 13 and target
enemies what a lucky number. Anyway getting into the drama Eldrie
budding hits with Alice or should I say the lack of
the anime actually cut this super thin not really too surprising Eldrie wouldn't be
much of a fan of Alice protect and Kirito especially if it meant
endangering her own life. Anyway Bercouli coming in gotta love him subtly calling
Alice plump. Skipped out here was Alice actually thinking that perhaps she
enjoyed Selka's delicious cooking a bit too much. Then for Alice seeing Bercouli
Alice actually thought that besides Kirito the only other person she
definitely could never beat in a battle was Bercouli.
Shots fired Fanatio. Next up Bercouli using the incarnate sword in the anime.
This was another one of those moments that i was really curious to see how
would it be visually done for the anime. How much would be explained? This whole
thing was really just hinting at Kirito was still being somewhere in there.
The key part here was Kirito actually protecting Alice instead of himself I
think I much preferred Bercouli came out for the anime
although do you notice Alice reaching for her blade. She was really ready to
defend Kirito even if it meant finding her beloved uncle. The more
surprising thing here was actually seeing Alice clinging to idle Kirito.
To me she when it comes off as it's like lost puppy hanging on to this
lifeline. Anyway getting into some of the juicy details the anime skipped over
first off the incarnate sword. The sao anime visually showed you this dagger
this incarnate sword actually surpasses incarnate arm which is the ability to
move swords previously is how Eugeo display this. It's supposed to be this
invisible blade that could even deflect physical ones.
Talk about being overpowered although when it comes to the incarnation system
it's nothing too fancy. At the end of the day I really like how Bercouli just told
Eldrie off don't worry about it dude it is just a plus one guy. Anime Eldrie was a
lot more silent. In the Light Novel Eldrie actually demanded to
know why even if Kirito recovered he couldn't see how a single person can
make such a huge difference. Bercouli then actually brought up how
are Eugeo defeated him and then both of them were responsible for taking out
Quinella shortly after. I would have liked to see this but perhaps it was not
needed. Getting into the tent oh it's getting steamy up in here. The
anime skipped out on Alice thinking how Bercouli already had this tent prepared
since day one in other words he knew Alice would return however Bercouli
didn't actually think that Alice would bring Kirito with her only one bed.
Talking about something getting hot so they done it in the teaser trailer, the actual
trailer and most recently the episode preview. I've told you they know what
they're doing. In the actual episode it did look like Alice was going in for
a big wet one. I bet you that 98% of Sao fans will think that. I mean sure you
could say that Alice just wanted to look at Kirito's eyes closely but even then
you know what the scene look like. Unfortunately and that is what anime
watchers will think anyway. Something I did like about this scene was how it made
Alice's thoughts pretty crystal clear. Alice had been lost for a while only
seeing herself as this created being a false one occupying real Alice's body.
Let me actually get into Alice's thoughts from the light novel. Back when they were
climbing the tower she only thought about how much she hated Kirito I
mean he took holder baka baka baka so many times. Alice's issue here was her
thinking that she had to close herself off emotionally. Then for that moment in
reality Alice was really just checking Kirito's eyes for any positive signs
Alice saw darkness there and perhaps some stars in the distance then
Alice kept on getting closer and closer in other words Alice really just
checking for a sign of life. Now flip that to the anime that
definitely looked like something else. Unfortunately this is only gonna few
people who actually ship Kirito Alice for whatever reason which is why I
don't like how this was shown in the anime. If anything I wish they changed
this. Honestly I have been completely lost at anyone who actually thinks this
is a possible end game couple Alice and Kirito have known each other for at best
half a day. Most of that time Alice wanted to stick her blade up his manhole.
Then for Kirito he hasn't had any feelings for anyone besides Asuna.
I mean for the actual SAO fan base if Kirito Asuna did not happen I
could picture fans calling for blood, SAO books would be burned I mean there's
a higher chance for Eugeo to be revived than boning Kirito.
But then you have seems like this in the anime stuff like. This definitely doesn't
help. Anyway welcoming back Tiese and Ronie
honestly they've only been here a short while but between the SAO games and sao
merch being a release here in japan it feels like they've become a much bigger
part for the sao season three anime. The small interaction between the three was
pretty sweet. Previously Alice had only appeared as
his cold serious Knight figure to both of them. Now she's completely softened up
definitely opening up her heart to others whether Alice is aware about this
change or not. For some of the skipped Alice stuff
Alice actually notice how despite the army being so short-handed
they shouldn't have these Academy students here which means Ronie and Tiese
actually volunteered on their own. Getting into the harsh Kirito
reality. Ronie is gonna be totally fine but Teise clearly had feelings for Eugeo
this whole thing was really opening up that Eugeo wound again
I was curious to see how the anime would do the light of blue rose sword moment
looks like they didn't want to show Eugeo's face or even have his voice here.
The whole thing really confused Alice. Previously you just fused with the Blue
Rose sword so couldn't have something like Eugeo's soul within it?
Alice wondered. Perhaps the shattered sword still has a part of Eugeo's
will within it. At the very least Tiese and Ronie still have each other in this
depressing time. I was actually confused about this next scene you had Tiese and Ronie
spilling over what caused all of us. This whole scene actually didn't happen until
the final day before the war. Getting into Alice's powerful moment really the
standout stuff from this episode. I have really loved Alice's speech here about
the heart and soul the body just being this temporary vessel and the flipside
these girls had no idea about Alice's own burden she had to bear. Alice was really
put herself out there sharing her own misfortune something she previously only
talked to Bercouli about. I did like how the anime showed Alice thinking back
to Kirito switching to his SAO clothing before trying it herself.
You actually recently saw Alice stealing her eye using the incarnation power. This
time Alice used that same power to change her appearance too just like Kirito
had done. Next up Alice and Bercouli ooh Bercouli
feels like Kirito is gonna be super important in the fight in other words
some pretty obvious foreshadowing. Right there what's more important is Bercouli
here admitting himself probably not being able to match up to Kirito's
willpower. Bercouli mentioned Kirito's actual combat experience. This
should definitely feel weird to anyone in the underworld.
Keep in mind like Bercouli hinted these guys don't really ever have to
fight where they're at risk of dying. Even when integrity knights fight other
dark territory forces those fights are pretty much one-sided. Bercouli himself
has only ever lost to a Dark Knight once and retreated. On the flipside you have Kirito
the person who was a victim of that SAO death game for around two years.
Kirito was constantly pushing himself and nearly dying so many
countless times so yeah Kirito actually dying beats anything Bercouli
has ever experienced in the underworld but keep this in mind. This
is not limited to only Kirito. This includes most SAO survivors.
Unfortunately you have Alice being cut off here she actually thought back to
get it up being from the outside world better Tell Bercouli -
Oh great Fanatio came in. You really do have to love Alice's expression seeing
Fanatio. oh my god you're a girl! I do have to
bring up this SAO anime change in the light novel Alice actually claimed that
she had only seen Fanatio's face once before by coincidence it was when both
of them were bathing yet the anime actually showed both another together in
a flashback. For the actual Fanatio stuff it was really great this episode
not only seeing development and progression for Alice but now some growth
from Fanatio. Oh mr. gender equality Kirito fought me with all his
might. Funny too how even Fanatio was joking around about wanting a piece of
Kirito and Alice so playful too. No no that will not be necessary.
Come on where is that integrity knight Fanatio figure announcement!
Shut up wallet stop crying. Then for their little catty talk the smartest
person in this conversation of course being Bercouli he Batmen ed the hell out
of there. Anyway getting into the actual war planning during Fanatio's strategy
talk you saw to more integrity knights up in the front one of them is integrity
knight number twelve. In the novel I did get this Claymore vibe from her so
looking forward to her and then the green dude you see in the opening. This guy's
number 27 Renly. By the way even more cameos Liena and Eugeo's mentor.
For the actual battle plan pretty awfully simple really this Last Stand
Fanatio is betting on them getting this advantage over the dark territory site
by just erasing all sacred power available and yes for anime only
Watchers it may sound weird but Alice is a key for this plan to work. You're gonna
see next episode. As for Alice's brief goodbye moment oh she definitely
enjoys embracing that Kirito Manmeet. Originally this would have been
the spot where Alice had that powerful talk. I'm actually glad the anime moved
this stuff around then for Alice and Eldrie. This definitely felt like I was
raising some sort of flag. I do like how even Eldrie acknowledged that at the very
least Alice to give this knight of final command by my power survive
is that a Geass reference? So yes the final war is beginning my god the Lisa
did such an amazing job with that ending. It feels like it gets me in tears every
single time. The funny thing about this is that I constantly run into it playing
on the radio here either in stores or even 7-eleven. It always takes me back. I
freaking love to end display here from the Dark territory leaders Gabriel still
looking bored as hell. Then the Integrity Knights and their
troops. These guys are not ready at all. The war begins next episode are you
ready? Next up the light novel changes going
into the SAO anime first off to Alice things in the beginning when flying
overhead Alice actually noticed a hair color of people in this area which was
black. Could they be related to Kirito? Alice thought perhaps having
Kirito meet them could improve his condition. Then Alice thinking about
fighting the dark territory side she knew that she'd easily be able to
take out a few hundred of the weak foot soldiers however the orgre archers and
dark mages would eventually overwhelm her. Next up Eldrie the drama and stuff
cut from him. Eldrie had always practically worshiped Alice. On top of
this under the taboo index even a charity knights like him were unable to
disobey higher-ups like Alice. Eldrie in this moment technically wasn't disobeying
Alice but at this moment he was now thinking and voicing his own opinion
loud and clear. He was no longer blindly obedient to Alice. It was most likely
after Eldrie encounter with Kirito and Eugeo that causes change within him.
Ironically he was only able to voice his outcry due to Kirito who he deeply
disliked. Alice thought back to other influenced individuals for example Selka
who voiced her concerns about issues within the Rulid village. There were
even two other girls who dare to approach an entirely knight fairly
recently. The final person most influence of course had been Alice herself
ultimately allowing her to break the seal forced upon her at birth.
Next up Bercouli unfortunately they cut out the scene of Bercouli feeling
a disturbance in the force. Bercouli actually noticed someone's blade
suddenly disappearing on the dark territory side.
I really wish they included this. Next up the dark territory side they completely
cut out a whole section about them. This included some details about them as they
march towards the gate. A good chunk included Gabriel's thoughts.
Gabriel actually played around with the idea about capturing an integrity Knight
to taste their soul although he shouldn't risk it. Vassago was right there next
I'm getting his ass drunk. Gabriel did point out how Vassago ran
for cover as soon as an attack was released last episode. He then asked Vassago why he
volunteered for this ocean turtle mission. Taking part in live fire was not
Vassago's thing. Vassago was simply answered that this seemed like fun.
Overall the stuff here it doesn't seem that important although it's always the
small things that serves to build characters up especially someone like
Gabriel. I'm going to guess they may bring this back up in future episodes
once the fighting starts. By the way Rezero is back definitely
