Kirito and and Asuna wake up the SAO King and queen are back. So what's up guys,
Foxen here. SAO Alicization War of Underworld episode 22.
It's been a long SAO ride. Part of the journey is the end.
Definitely dual blade that Like and ring the bell. And by the way,
a new fresh SAO Kirito video is up. Please, please, please do watch that.
I spend so much time on it, but YouTube is not sending it out. Anyway
the new SAO Alicization Epilogue begins titled Alice.
So jumping a little bit ahead, August 1st,
You got the announcement to the world, the birth of the first true AI.
And you do have a glimpse of Asuna and Kirito, the two lovers,
still snoozing away at this point. As for a Rinko's presentation. Oh my God.
I know that place.
That is Roppongi but more specifically that's right next to the Mori Art museum.
That's where the Attack on Titan final exhibition took place.
The whole area there is super pricey, which is why I don't go too often. Oh,
and YouTube Tokyo is right there too. So welcome Alice.
You got her doing her knight pose too.
It was really interesting to see Alice sporting in the uniform from the SAO
survivor school. Alice synthesis, 30 interesting here to see her
keep this keepsake from Quinella. So everyone gathered up at the dicey cafe.
Sorry, guys all locked up for this IRL SAO meetup.
The sleeping knights should have been there. Also Alfheim Online leaders, too bad.
they weren't highlighted.
I was really curious to see what they looked like in real life. Right here.
I'm glad that Liz brought up the uniform look.
Alice is not just cosplaying. Even better
the fun tidbit Alice's first wardrobe choice was her integrity knight golden
Armor. Rinko must have been like, sorry, hon. Not in the budget.
As for Sinon looking at Alice saying she could hardly tell them difference.
You got some light novel world building cut. Turns out what Alice is using
isn't all that special. In the present time theme parks,
and event halls in Japan had similar robots. In other words,
the actual robot body was common enough for the times. All right
let the Q and A began. Alice it's your time to shine. Miss Alice,
what makes you different from the current robots?
She's got a conscious brain housed inside of her lightcube. Alright,
so how about you explain it to us like we're five?
One detail I love was just hearing how ultra formal this guy's question was.
But at the same time, the tone of his just spoke the opposite.
Please open Alice's skull. We want to see her shiny metal ass. Oh,
Alice here coming in with that sass. How about you showing me your juicy bits
first? I frigging love her not holding back one bit. Is Alice mad?
Oh, she's super pissed. Small anime cut here.
Alice had actually already converted to Alfheim online.
You won't be surprised which class she chose.
This meant that Alice had already met Liz, Silica and the others over there.
In VR Alice had her superhuman technique with a sword,
her Knight pride and honor even struck fear and awe into the hearts of players.
Next fun topic, how about using AI as cheap labor?
Which is already heading super close to home with jobs being more and more
automated. At least Rinko shot down this concern pretty quickly.
Even if you go by RATH's original goal,
the Underworld people would have been used for war. Really quickly
I love the attention to detail here with the reporter lady supporting the Augma
device. So it all comes down to money. Robots are the hot topic.
Oh yes robot manufacturers are super interested.
The anime left out their stock price shooting sky high. Towards this,
you may have already guessed the Rinko's answer,
which is really a key point of SAO Alicization. As a whole
the Underworld people are pretty much on the level of being a human being.
They just lack of physical body.
I do have to touch on Rinko claiming that they cannot be mass produced. Sure
best not to let them know about fluctlight acceleration.
All this goes back to the topic of AI human rights. It is really what Asuna
and Kiku butted heads on in the early SAO Alicization intro, likewise,
Kiku already knew where Kirito stood on the topic.
So he conveniently left out that detail about Project Alicization.
I really like how Rinko was trying to paint this bright future in the SAO
world filled with AI eventually after a few hundred years,
the blending of the two worlds would be complete if not sooner.
I could just see Kayaba smiling in the background. If you think about it,
a lot of the stuff that Rinko is talking about will be issues coming in the
coming decades for us, even going past that one day marrying these individuals,
that lack of physical body. The future should be very, very interesting,
but just seeing how 2020 has been going
let's hope we all make it there in a single piece. For an anime cut here
Rinko did emphasize how Alice not having a physical body was not the point.
They already had a place where they could interact as equals,
which is the VR realm.
This is all thanks to the SEED package that Kayaba made. VR spaces were already
widely used everywhere.
This very conference was actually considered to be in VR at first. Rinko
also hammer down how these fluctlights were perfectly compatible with the SEED VR
spaces.
There was also another question before Alice jumped in. The reporter brought up
how Ocean Turtle and the research was technically funded by taxpayer
money.
So why was it their institution deciding instead of putting it up for the people
to vote? Then for the latest remark about how they could be treated as equal
these manmade beings,
That's surely going to be a touchy subject one day. Time for Alice to jump into
her time to shine. What if your world was also a created one?
What if your life was also created by much higher being?
So another hot topic of discussion,
You should notice how Alice took the words directly from Quinella.
It was almost line for line
the same for when Kirito and the trio came knocking. All of these guys better,
be glad that Alice has in front of them instead of grandma Admin.
I could see Quinella's first words being "bend the knee humans". In the end
I was glad how Alice closed this,
her being ready to reach out to the people here as a fellow
human being herself. All of this was almost perfect. Unfortunately,
you do have the line about love. You know what Alice is referring to.
It is a shame too because that could have been removed or rephrased.
Cause I'm almost sure that Reki has clarified what Alice meant
by her statement, just after the fact. Don't quote me on this
but I vaguely do recall that Alice's
love was described as being more maternal towards Kirito,
since she did spend so much time taking care of him.
But of course with the anime, you don't have that.
Everyone's going to take that line at face value. Oh, Alice loves Kirito.
The potato dude she knows nothing about. Let me just mention,
I do love Alice's character, especially seeing her struggles post Quinella
but I feel like this not being expanded on takes away so much from her
character.
I don't know if this also makes it worse since you didn't have young Alice and
Eugeo dying. Now you have the Knight Alice that remains proclaiming her love.
It just feels awfully wrong.
And I'm not really sure how they could actually remedy this without straight out
reviving Eugeo,
then pairing them up somehow or hammering down what Reki originally meant in
SAO Unital Ring and perhaps Reiki has done that but unfortunately,
anime only people are not going to find out till years later.
I can say that I definitely had my own issues with SAO
Alicization and this would be among the top of that list.
So I don't know what anyone wants to see a video on that? Right now I'm siding
with not doing anything negative SAO related. Stacia
and those there's already so much out there. Anyway,
getting to stranger things back at RATH with Higa turns out officially Kiku
has been killed from the ocean turtle raid. In TV
the anime they conveniently left out how the defense ship
ideally stood by while all of this was happening.
really speaking about the corrupt Japanese side in play. Oh,
but what's is Kiku back from the dead.
There were a few important key things here. Having this guy announced officially
dead put so much public pressure in Japan to out those involved.
It actually went up to the vice minister of defense.
The guy was getting a huge chunk of change from American weapons companies.
Ultimately revealing Alice in public was part of Kiku's plan.
It was about sending a message.
Now the world knows what Japan is capable of. These weapons companies couldn't
force Japan into this joint partnership. Project
Alicization had already been perfected. Getting Kirito in the Soul
Translator at this point Kirito
and Asuna had been in potato mode for three weeks. In the Underworld.
that would have been 200 plus years.
Their fluctlight should have been completely destroyed,
but thankfully their hearts were still beating. Unfortunately,
the anime cutout RATH telling their parents. Asuna's Papa was super pissed.
The guy was going to the full on Karen in court,
thankfully also Asuna's mother stopped him.
She believed in Asuna, she was confident that Asuna would return safe and sound.
Anyway, back to the conference,
someone had to ask any chance of a Terminator timeline.
I feel like Ringo gave the most obvious,
but perhaps difficult to execute answer. No worries.
Just don't enslave them or trying to destroy them simple. But you know it
I know it.
If human history is anything to go by Alice better start building the T 1000's
now. I feel it's a very natural to think that AI will lead to our own decision.
How many stories have we had about this happening?
Skynet may be the most famous, although let me ask you for some help.
Do you know of any popular positive AI tales? Then for Alice here, oh
I sense the disturbance. I'm not going to let the potatoes escape this time.
Fun little thing to notice here from the reporter's point of view,
you had the evil AI question. Then right away, Alice was like, Oh, time to go.
You can bet all of these guys are now sweating bullets. Holy crap,
Alice teleported.
I really can't same too much of a fan of the anime changes here.
Unlike in the anime Alice actually called out to Kirito and Asuna.
Now they cut out Alice performing what seemed to be like a prayer for Asuna and
Kirito,. There was also a mention about Alice,
how she had adapted to the new environment in just three weeks.
It was all due to this powerful driving force that possessed her
to see Kirito and Asuna again. Then for Kirito waking up,
he whispered "daijobou?" Are you alright? And Asuna replied back? Sure.
as she was waking up. As for the heartbreaking stuff poor Selka she chose to go
into deep freeze waiting for Alice to return one day.
Notice how Kirito referred to Asuna as a Queen. Underworld King and queen
Sayonara. I need to point out something important here. Despite Kirito
telling them to delete all those memories.
RATH actually can't really do that. For them it's always been blocking them.
Think about it being similar to deleting something on your hard drive.
The data is technically still there, which does bring up SAO Unital Ring.
To be fair I am still very early into it,
but I heard this does come into play going forward. Anyway, give me some Asuna.
What a wonderful choice with the blue roses. It turns out Asuna
actually got out three days earlier. Come on,
give me the Kirito and Asuna scraps. It looks like the kiss ain't happening.
Damning you a-1 pictures. Oh, and Asuna with that hairstyle,
that is definitely getting a failure then for the Underworld memories.
I don't know, perhaps I'm insane,
but I'm still surprised that the anime is skipping stuff,
but I guess that's why I'm here so quick rundown, at least one positive thing.
After this war, the dark territory and human empire were on positive terms.
Iskahn heard that Kirito was Leafa's brother.
And also the one that melted God Vecta. The guy punched him.
He had a test amount.
He's going to actually admitted that keto was tougher than that. Crappy.
God turns out he's going to officially became the new commander of the dark army
Sheyta volunteer to stay over on the dark territory side.
She would serve as the bridge to both sides for the integrity knights.
Financial was now the highest ranking one first order of business,
10 to kick out the emperor of families and the Nobles who are trying to take the
power. Post-war for Kirito
and Asuna both of them officially joined in the human unification council.
Both of them brought peace to the underworld and they were active for around 200
years. If you have any questions about the events here,
post down below. Poor Kirito you got him sobbing at the thought of this.
It is pretty sad to realize at this point with them outside everyone,
they knew in the Underworld and all the nights, Iskahn Roney, Tiese,
All of them were no longer alive. Stay cool. You do though.
You got their memories. Smile because it happened.
Demi Kiku interrupting these lovebirds should you really be out and about?
I also freaking called the anime, cutting out the gift Kiko brought for them.
It was a bag of fish, tofu, and cheese.
Another small anime cut Kiko confirmed Kirito.
Being sent to the Underworld without his murmurings blocked was not on purpose.
Doing so would have contaminated the Underworld,
but it looks like Yanai already had. At least Kirito
with his memories was able to put the Underworld back on track,
getting into important matters with Kiku. Unfortunately,
the Underworld was in a terrible current position.
The Japanese government wanted to shut them down to create ultra cheap labor.
Thankfully they couldn't just do that.
Otherwise the actual truth of the ocean Turtle would come out.
It would be this huge scandal between the NSA and weapon companies,
the vice minister of defense,
along with other members of the ruling party that had financial connections to
major domestic weapon companies. It's just a massive situation.
Kiku's amazing plan? drum roll please. Hope,
really boiling down to a wide acceptance of AI human rights.
To be fair that shouldn't actually be too difficult for anyone that actually
comes in contact with them.
It looks like Alice is not only going to be the face of this AI movement.
She's going to be doing the heavy lifting on this side. I hope you're ready.
Alice. I would not want to be in her shoes.
So what would Kiku be up to you really shouldn't notice a progression and
development for him. He was once that guy,
that's not the underworld and it's people expendable.
Now he was helping the Underworld as his new dream,
getting to an Asuna and Kirito scene that the anime cutout,
they wonder what Kiku could truly be doing.
They felt like his role was now going beyond perhaps tours. What Kayaba envision.
And then another important moment cut out.
Both of them didn't know how they survived those 200 years,
perhaps they had done something similar to quinella reorganizing their memories.
But one thing was clear.
He did though had made it back to the railroad only because us now was at his
side. Why did you cut those while stroking us in us hair?
Both of them logged into Alfheim
online for a meeting and getting to the shady stuff.
What have you done? Not only sticking out a light cue,
but copying over this 200 plus year old Kirito the King.
It does not sound happy. He got himself sounded weird here too.
Was that the scientist and him coming out?
Let's not question whether you should do it.
Let's just do it for Kirito here.
Did her majesty get copied to no.
Why would I copy us?
Not to I'm calling it that guy's freaking lying,
which I don't know that for sure, but I'm not buying that for a second.
Oh my God that Asuna and Kirito tease so sweet. Thankfully,
both of these to consider the possibility within those 200 years time and to use
any remaining time for the Underworld sake. Accel World vibes
definitely intensified getting to the main issue at hand right now,
the Underworld is taking up physical resources on top of that as all this is
backed by the government. As long as the Underworld is left in limbo,
they got Mount five years for at the time to figure something out.
Kirito's remark? I'll fight. Oh,
it looks like they were looking for the Terminator in the wrong place.
Kirito versus Kirito. When then for the Kayaba name drop,
I'm super glad that the anime gave a face to the star.
Kingdom looks like he did those. Taking a page out of Quinella. He guy,
you're now working for me, buddy, which really brings up the question.
What would happen if Kirito and Kayaba met up?
This is really getting my brain firing for Unital Ring and Accel World Stuff.
getting back to young Kirito, the old pad.
Haven't been back here in like 2.5 years now, counting blocked memories. Poor
Kirito having that Eugeo wound bursting out open again.
This was definitely hashtag cry time for me.
One of the things they ask the elicitation anime elevator for me was a huge
issue, especially his loss. Hopefully you saw the post credit,
the world's most popular ladies, sporting purple.
I think that actually goes well with the blonde hair, poor blonde,
the starting to break down too much thrown on her shoulders.
It feels like lately I could relate with all the nonstop video I've been doing.
Oops, did I say that out loud? So how did you like this SAO episode?
I feel like this is a great change of pace.
This final SAO chunk has practically been action nonstop so much to the point
that some SAO watchers have gotten lost. SAO Alicization as a whole is
mostly over this episode was core SAO.
Let's see where this AI discussion of human rights goes.
Final SAO episode is next week. Fingers crossed some type of feature.
SAO anime gets announced for one cut scene at the start,
but I'm guessing it's going to come back. Next episode it was of by that,
got recovered from the robot that sung to the bottom of the ocean,
which means that dude had an escape plan from the beginning.
Kayab will return talking about an SAO sequel and SAO world.
The underworld after event just got announced. Everyone's going to be there.
You got Eir, Reona, Lisa, ASCA, VSL director,
all the voice actors from the SAO anime plus more interestingly Asuna as voice
actors will not be there considering the global situation.
I really can't blame her. The event is taking place on November 8th.
How appropriate fingers crossed a new SAO anime project gets announced there.
I'm just hoping and wishing I could get a ticket to the event and let me just
apologize in advance. I will be stupid enough to roast, you know
what and even overpay if needed by the way,
definitely check out my new SAO video and why Kirito is supposedly overpowered.
Why did Kirito wake up from potato mode and gain?
What seemed like godly powers.
This video goes super in depth on that between me and my editor.
We spent like 80 plus hours on it. Unfortunately,
YouTube is not sending it out to you. So definitely watch that next. Anyway.
Bonus question. The SAO anime pretty much done.
So what has been your favorite SAO season?
Three moment bonus points that the anime did it better.
Definitely subscribe and ring the bell for more juicy anime videos,
new ketone razor videos are up and I'll see you guys later.
