I've only recently realized that the guy that sees jesus telling him to "kill them all" is the same guy that becomes the leader of laughing coffin. "Jesus told me to say it" BRUH IF IM RIGHT THEN THATS FABULOUS CONTINUITY!!!
@@theomega7699 It took me years to realize. But that just goes to show that every time you rewatch the series you notice all the extra details they put in
@4:54 the term is “Answer in Kind” which basically means “to repay someone who has done something to you, by doing the same thing to them”. @5:34 Kirito actually (apparently) helped write or entirely wrote it, being a Beta Tester and all. @5:52 I’m pretty sure that’s Kirito just trying to see how dumb people can be, by pretending to say something stupid that will get people killed, just to see what they’ll do/say. Remember this is early on Kirito, he doesn’t care about others or human life at this point.
Kirito: "Look. If they're stupid enough to listen to me.... Maybe they deserve to die. After all, They're neck beards anyways." I hate that this is EXACTLY how Kirito would react to it😂
Although that's a typical behavior for Kirito in this show We also need to mention that he had no idea SAO would turn into death game disaster and thought that would be a funny asshole joke.
Fun fact, the cat model is from an anime called Ghost Stories. The official English dub is legendary, and could easily be considered the grandfather of abridged series. How best to describe it? React to a best of video for the show, and if you haven't been offended within the first two minutes, then you're probably horrible human beings. This applies to all people though, so it somehow loops back around to being hilarious because of that shared experience
The story behind the English dub is great too... from what I heard, ADV Films optioned it and were apparently given a LOT of latitude for a series which otherwise would have flown under the radar.
@@kereminde Yup, then the actors got their hands on it and ad libbed the crap out of it! First actor in the studio set the tone for that episode, and they were constantly trying to top each other's antics
Is it bad that I legitimately don't remember his actual name, but I do remember not only "Tiffany," but nearly every single one of those stupid nicknames they gave him? As far as I'm concerned, this is the true SAO canon.
You just have to love the sheer level of dickishness that they manage to put onto Kirito… though it makes me wonder what they will do during his inner dialogues when eventually alicization gets abridged… you know which parts Duck
i will forever love this series because one of my irl best friends since elementary school is the voice of tiffany he is a great person glad yall like this series
Yes he did and he wrote it to fuck with the newbies For example the final solution is the holocaust so he’s effectively just saying “when he gets to phase 2 just kill all the Jews “ and then a German wants to hear more This abridged is magical
He didn't write the book, as it's a compilation of info from lots of beta testers. Argo the Rat is the beta tester who wrote the book after compiling all the info from the others. Kirito is however the one who brought the info about the boss of the first floor as he was the one who beat it in the beta of the game.
@@sancturillore ah good point, but fun thought I’d Argo wrote it and she still put in a lot of Kiritimati asshole comments then that means she either had a similar personality or she found his jokes funny
This Abridged series is awesome. Man I think it already achieved it's perfect form. This might be the Perfect Cell of Abridged series. Now we just need the SSJ2 GOHAN of Abridged series.
@@hzuilquigmnzhah1017 I mean, Argo even in the original series is a known troll. So I wouldn't put it past her in the abridged to have intentionally included Kirito's jokes.
There's SAO Alternative (the pink chibi spin off) so that acronym won't do. As much as that spin-off is miles better than regular SAO, it's not good enough to warrant dominance over the Abridged series.
@@SonnyFRST bruh does anyone give a fuck about that? I didn't even KNOW that was a thing, nor do I care. I & many others have been addressing it as SAO:A for years now, & will continue to do so. Regardless of whatever pink Chibi spinoff exists.
I'm pretty sure that the narration was a riff on the game Bastion which has a narrator that talks just like that and kind of narrates what you're doing as you're playing. th-cam.com/video/VZAuKkv4eZE/w-d-xo.html (some gameplay of Bastion). Whoops...didn't see the "ep3". Yeah episode 3 is kind of strange...but still funny.
Keep in mind the Jesus guy near the end whose standing next to the cat. He comes back later but it's very subtle, you'll miss it if you're not paying attention. Leader of Laughing Coffin
So the narrator is a reference to the game Bastion from Super Giant (same people who made hades) the music in the background of the narration is "In Case of Trouble" by Darren Korb the composer for all of Super Giant's games
i love this abridged it was so funny . as for the standing in fire thing in some games like deablo theres a skill called thorns that sends back a set ammout of damage back to the attacker . i have a few items like that and 2000 damage returned is on the low end and can for some higher items can get up to 48000 + just for standing in fire so your enemy's literally kill themself buy attacking you . one of the many reasons being a mage rocks
What a lot of people don't realize is that the guy who saw Jesus in that episode is actually the guy that becomes the leader of laughing coffin in later episodes (Bible quoting serial killer). The laughing coffin emblem at the end is foreshadowing that
I'm totally that guy, I really like playing games within games and if SAO were to be a game, I'd absolutely play Bejeweled to pass the time, well 2 specifically.
I think it was Canon for a while he was playing on his wife's account Could have had the same situation as balls, you were using a different account for learning the mechanics and using a actual account as your main one
it does only get better btw, i dont know how to tell you this, but the current scientific consensus is that the duck does not go moo, but rather a "quack"
Soooo...the joke about "our best player is a girl who thinks DPS is some kind of sex thing"... In some RP communities, especially VR ones, and most especially the more fringe lewd areas of those communities, they've developed a system that allows avatars to "interact" with each other called "Dynamic Penetration System". DPS. There. That's the joke.
I would suggest after SAO, show Kirby TFS's Attack on Titan Abridged and Abridgimon, the Movie (also by TFS). They're both one shots, so two easy videos right there
I love how much of a dick Kirito is in this lmao so good & I will say while SAO is slow at the start it does pick up & S2 is dark asf especially with Asuna
1:01 I would actually say that Episode 2 is a low point for the series personally. Though effectively that's a compliment given how much of the episode holds up.
Seven Deadly Schmucks is another good one but SAO Abridged is up there right alongside DBZ Abridged in my opinion both groups have some awesome writers for the material.
I have no evidence for it, but it is my headcanon that the player who shouts "Love knows no gender!" in the first episode is Tiffany and he was playing as a female character also, he is either bisexual or pansexual.
At 4:55, he’s saying “You must answer in kind.” As in, you must also throw disposable minions at him. XD
I think the best touch is the German voice at the end "I'd like to hear more about this final solution"
@@Spiran_SphereHunter well he do has a point
I too am interested in that tactic
Oooooh
@@theduckgoesmoo the disposable minion--I mean the man gets it.
it's kinda hard to hear "in kind" his accent is little confusing in this case.

“You were an adequate meat shield and no one can take that away from you😊!” Kirito the beater/sociopath/crown prince of douchebags! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Long may he reign!
No need to be charitable
When Kirito deals with Rosalia,we will see Kirby spray out her drink like a shocked cartoon character.
I have good news for you, You don't need to wonder where your god is, becouse is righed here and is aut of merci.
not to mention the kirito is always right foundation
@@nightbane727 . Oh dang! I forgot about that but YES!!!!!
@@klopko249 . Well especially the last words of Rosalia. Please don't spoil it because Kirby needs the blind reaction to that.
That or the last time Kirito mentions Rosalía, if you know what I mean (no spoilers tho)
I've only recently realized that the guy that sees jesus telling him to "kill them all" is the same guy that becomes the leader of laughing coffin. "Jesus told me to say it"
BRUH IF IM RIGHT THEN THATS FABULOUS CONTINUITY!!!
It is the same guy
@@theomega7699 It took me years to realize. But that just goes to show that every time you rewatch the series you notice all the extra details they put in
Yep. Most people miss that the first time.
Yep. That's why they show the Laughing Coffin symbol while playing the creepy version of "Jesus Loves Me" at the end of the video.
"I don't know how to talk to you"
"Good, then you can shut up and listen"
Honestly, that's the kind of energy I'd love to have
@4:54 the term is “Answer in Kind” which basically means “to repay someone who has done something to you, by doing the same thing to them”.

Wait so that was actually Kirito saying that? I thought it was just a rando lol
You are the first comment I've seen other than my owns believing in all of the things you just mentioned
Although that's a typical behavior for Kirito in this show We also need to mention that he had no idea SAO would turn into death game disaster and thought that would be a funny asshole joke.
And she made good on that threat by becoming his wife lmao.

And she technically got the half of that coat through marriage.

@@theduckgoesmoo . Yes. This is her universe.
Kinda sad you guys didn't get the final solution joke especially when the German asked to hear more about it.

You just have to love the sheer level of dickishness that they manage to put onto Kirito… though it makes me wonder what they will do during his inner dialogues when eventually alicization gets abridged… you know which parts Duck
He's not quite going to be the same by then. Compare him in this episode to him in episode 17, he's clearly growing
1:24 Him. Jesse "Nowacking" Nowack transitioned in 2018.
Kirby is a trademark character all her own, this is all I have to say
aww thank you🥺🤗

But you, you may call me Tiffany!
Great reaction guys
wasn't it cannon that he was using his wife's account?
Thanks for watching it Tiffany!
It's only 16 episodes "so far." They haven't stopped making it, it just takes them a while.
In fact, Episode 16 just came out a month or so ago.
My theory is Tiffany is his wife's name and this was meant to be her character.
That is exactly right
They're married and could only afford one, he just happened to be the first one to login
Kyle: yeah 2,000 people died.
Audience: THEY DID!?
Btw Kirito is a beta tester and by his muffled laughter, he was the one who wrote it in the book at 5:36 - 5:37
God Asuna and Tiffany's original voices sound so jarring compared to their modern takes.
I think asuna stayed the same she just changed how she did it.
@@princemwamba5230 It's a different VA
@@princemwamba5230 Asuna changed VA
Keep in mind the Jesus guy near the end whose standing next to the cat. He comes back later but it's very subtle, you'll miss it if you're not paying attention.

Been waiting all week for this. Now to start semi-patiently wait on the next one.
We’re planning to record it sometime this week

Coming back 4 months later just to watch your stuff
Did Kirby always have a nose piece or is it new?
Tiffany!!!
Have you hear of 50% off Free abridged?
Tiffany is Nagisa there and it is pure gold!
Yeah I think she’s had it in every video lol I’ve put 50% off abridged in multiple polls so it’ll happen
Gotta love SAOAbridged.:)
Especially since character development is more in depth than the official release.
Poor Tiffany got trapped in the game using his wife's account. He owns it.
Is that actually the story?
@@theduckgoesmoo In Abridged, yes. He ain't ashamed to wear his wife's name. Hell, probably helps keep him sane hearing it.
"noon? that's so early" *laughs at 2:50 in the morning*
Kibao: "I don't need no evidence."

Quick question if you and Kirby face that boss monster and beat it. And won the coat who gets it and who gets the ones and zeros
I don’t think I could pull it off but I’d give it to her anyway
i can't wait for Kirby to get her second and third helping of Asuna.......
I'm remembering how much I love sao abridged, why am I feeling emotional? It's just so good.
It is so weird hearing Asuna without her normal voice...and none of the retaliatory sass.
That opening narration was a reference to Bastion. I'm only saying that because I just got it. 😅
Oh God I love the bastion reference with the intro
i love this abridged it was so funny .
as for the standing in fire thing in some games like deablo theres a skill called thorns that sends back a set ammout of damage back to the attacker .
i have a few items like that and 2000 damage returned is on the low end and can for some higher items can get up to 48000 + just for standing in fire so your enemy's literally kill themself buy attacking you .
one of the many reasons being a mage rocks
Kirby, remember the guy talking to Jesus and about seeing the cat. That guy will show up later in disguise
i LOVE this series, some of my favorite things to quote come from SAOA
Kirby is amazing every time haha.
What a lot of people don't realize is that the guy who saw Jesus in that episode is actually the guy that becomes the leader of laughing coffin in later episodes (Bible quoting serial killer). The laughing coffin emblem at the end is foreshadowing that
Its actually realluy good. hope they make more
So glad yall are watching this
I’m glad you’re watching it!
Did we just get ourselves a second baby panda?!
Just wait till she sees the Christmas episode...
And thus Jeffery, taking the command of Jesus to heart, founded Laughing Coffin. :)
I have a question for you duck. How did you meet Kirby as you said you've been best friends for 3 years. If its to personal to answer that fine.
Haha dating apps funny enough
@@theduckgoesmoo really? Huh strange world but hey it aint the oddest ways to meet new friends.

I love sao abridged so much! I can’t wait to see more
I cannot wait until we finally get to the stuff after ep10, which is not something a lot of people say about regular sao
Careful you slowly start to fall back in your behaviour of hinting future stuff again .
Every person I see react to this never understands the final solution joke😅😅
You know when he said let's take a Cheetos mountain dew break I got a freaking ass for GrubHub 🤣🤣 now that's timing
cant wait till you guys get to ep 4

I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty

just a reminder, there are 2 Asuna VA's in this series.
Asuna did kinda make DPS a sex thing, she punched Kirito
I like watching abridged but im lonely af so im watching ppl react lol
Duck is hating on SAO but forgot it’s one of the stepping stones to getting anime into the mainstream and it’s actually a good show
she did make his life a living hell she married him
If either of ya'll are interested in another good abridged series, I would recommend How To Be An Adventurer by Yaroshien here on TH-cam.
Literally downloaded tik tok even though I hate it and it’s predecessors with all my being just so I could follow you and add to the DBZA4KIRBY army
YESSSSS! THE RETURNNNNNN!

The Price of Being a Beater
Soooo...the joke about "our best player is a girl who thinks DPS is some kind of sex thing"...
In some RP communities, especially VR ones, and most especially the more fringe lewd areas of those communities, they've developed a system that allows avatars to "interact" with each other called "Dynamic Penetration System". DPS.

is the 12k followers for dbza a real wall, or like a "go follow kirby" thing, cuz id love to but i dont have a tiktok

After you finish DBZA, I think you should both see PARASYTE ABRIDGED.
Also I would like to know what Kirby thinks of JUJUTSU KAISEN and CHAINSAW MAN.
The “Final solution” is what Germany did during world war :3
I would suggest after SAO, show Kirby TFS's Attack on Titan Abridged and Abridgimon, the Movie (also by TFS). They're both one shots, so two easy videos right there
Additionally I wish to add that you should also do Bleach S Abridged by Project Mouthwash

You guys should try out Bleach S abridged!

I would actually say that Episode 2 is a low point for the series personally.
Though effectively that's a compliment given how much of the episode holds up.
Episode 4 is my favorite
Let's test that "read every comment" does that include this one a year or so later?
Yes it does
You should react to Meatcanyon videos with Kirby
Seven Deadly Schmucks is another good one but SAO Abridged is up there right alongside DBZ Abridged in my opinion both groups have some awesome writers for the material.
Asuna is played by an actress called "Bubblemonkey". Seras is played by a now transitioned trans man named Jesse Nowack.
I have no evidence for it, but it is my headcanon that the player who shouts "Love knows no gender!" in the first episode is Tiffany and he was playing as a female character also, he is either bisexual or pansexual.
