EPISODE REVIEWS
In this episode, we might not empathize much with Sinon, as she has attitudes that can annoy and anger us, especially the way she is with Kirito. Yes, we can empathize with her story, but he has shown her that he is someone who cares for her and looks after her despite her unbearable desire to have a battle with him.
A desperate escape turns into a raw, haunting confession session. Watching Kirito and Sinon bond over their shared trauma is heavy, but it finally connects their core motivations. The chase scene is frantic, but the cave dialogue is the real heart. Don't miss this one!
The chasing between them is so tight and tense. Great framing and composition are so useful in this kind of scene. The soundtrack choice also gives the scene emotion. Those two create an effective fight scene. The second half is dialogue-heavy with enough lore.
