EPISODE REVIEWS

Lisbeth's energy was such a breath of fresh air, honestly, it was nice to see someone so bubbly compared to everyone else we've met. My heart genuinely broke for her on that bridge when she realized she never had a shot with Kirito against Asuna. But man, the way she still powered through and forged that amazing sword for him, that really showed me how tough she is deep down.

I actually really enjoyed seeing the whole blacksmithing process unfold; it was cool to see a different side of Aincrad, and honestly, Liz's dedication to forging the Dark Repulser with so much care really showed how much she cares for Kirito, which just made the sword feel so much more meaningful.

Seeing Kirito and Asuna just hold hands in that dragon nest really made me think about how truly desperate they must be for any kind of human connection, I mean, finding warmth and comfort in a digital world like that just highlights their real-world isolation in such a poignant way.
