nope... the 4000 something players that died during the game , actually died..
Facts guess thats why the revive crystal said administer 10 seconds after death
And reki couldnt think of any reason for akiheko to put 10000 people hostage in a deathgame other than "i like the iron clad castle"
Sword art online would have been so much better if the main villan actually had a good reason for all this. Maybe throw in some clashing phylosophy. Something we can think about, the plot would have been a 1000 times better if reki (the writer) decided that the villan thinks the world currently is corrupt and flawed, and with taking 10000 people hostage in a death game he wants to show the world how people really react when left alone, throw in some actual reason for death. Dont just put some psychopaths together and call that the human villans, no givw them some slack, maybe give laughing coffin the same reason for killing people reki tought of in advance, people are flawed thinkers.
Doing something like that gives this story way more depth
@@kamisorimobiusu3338 his will probably overwhelmed the system, think i´ve heard that through the anime
@@oldscooljoe6194 I like the villain and the reason. He saw a vision of an iron castle in the sky, and just wanted to chase and make his own world to escape the the real one.
@@Spiritrobore i expected a lot more of a villan who abducted 10000 people.
Kayaba issnt this srupid to put that many people's lifes on the line because he wanted iron clad to escape to.
Its really just a missed oppurtunity, they could have played a lot more with kayaba's caracter. Right now he is a standard depressed/escapist scientist /gamer.
Wich really is a shame. Untill yui came into the show i was hooked, the first 9 episodes arent bad, (except maybe for introducing us to caracters wich will never be important again later on). You know, the show puts itself up as if its a futuristic thriller while to me it feels more like a failed comedy,
"Do you know how many of you have died screaming 'LEEROY JENKIS' ?"
Actually, it's leeroy jenkins.

"now that was a surprise" That genuinely made me laugh so hard! I dont remember Kayaba saying that
*B R U H*
big BRUH moment right there
Totally sounds like an abridged moment.
kirito had his last request fulfilled and him and asuna survived
My guess was when he disabled his immortality, he also allowed kirito and Asuna to live
I love how Kayaba realizes in the scene where he stabs Kirito and "dies", that Kirito's willpower and resilience is so strong that he's able to defy death itself, even for a moment, in order to achieve the goal all players share: clearing the game. That look of horror on Kayaba's face, the moment when he realized just who Kirito truly is, is incredible
When kiritos eyes go yellow he is basically breaking the game... no life crystal......... know everybody that died in the game did die in real life
Yeah he was using the power of incarnation. Gets explained in Alicization
@@divineengine547 hmm... did not know I saw part of that on Toonami ended with quite a cliffhanger last I saw was a shootout on the island
I thought Klein use the revival item kirito gave him
@@emigdiohernandez1530 nope
@@Black-amaterasu basically when his eye go yellow is serious mode / hack activates
Akihiko: the ones that died are dead.
Suzy: so everyone is alive?
Haha 🤣🤗
She thought it was a lie but she will realise it later

😂😂
Itachi steps out of the shadows: "I will now stab Asuna for the next 72 hours"
Itachi a moment later: “I can’t even remember why I did this to you.”
yes
That whole episode is such a roller coaster ride honestly, still love it after all that time. That scene at the end with Kirito getting out of the nervegear, long hair falling, fighting to get up from bed as he goes out in search of Asuna, is actually pretty emotionally charged!
They should have ended the show right there. End of the game maybe she’s in a coma for a bit then she wakes up when he touches her or something. But even him getting up to look for her is good enough
@@joecoolberry911 that would be sad though
"It's been so long, I've forgotten the reason."
"What."
Hehhehe, yeah, that about sums it up.
Lmfao 💀 well at least in season 3 we did get more backstory and explanation so I gave this a pass
There’s gonna be a sex scene in season 2 with fairies
Kirito: That...reminds me. That's the one thing I was never able to figure out. What was your plan, exactly?
Kayaba: Heh. It's funny. I don't even remember anymore.
Kirito: ARE YOU F***ING KIDDING ME!?
Kayaba: HAHAHA, NO! Oh my god, two years and THAT'S what I give you!? Man, that'd be so unsatisfying. Whew, but no, I did it because of Metacritic.
@@rere9991 LOL, imagine having to retcon major plot points because the writing sucked so much. They literally end SAO by surprise in one episode, Kirito literally defies the world's own logic to win and then when the main question of the entire season (why did Kayaba do this) is asked, the writers laugh in the face of everyone watching by making him say (ehhh, I don't remember, bye bye now)
it's a very bad delivery by the voice dub. kayaba knows, but he lost his pure original drive along the way. it's so clear in the original and in the novels. he does explains it just a second later
As Heathcliff said, Asuna who breaks the paralysis is "impossible", just like Kirito who comes back to kill Kayaba. This is a first clue to a deeper mechanics: P ( SAO is still running with an episode every Saturday, with the arc Alicization! )
Actually it's War of the Underworld but yeah you're right.
Amazing how everyone gets this wrong.
That scene was just in Kiritos's head (he was imagining dying), and at the very end when he was about to give up, he thought about Asuna and clearing that game, that he somehow managed to get the strength to actually stab Heathcliff, and therefore clearing the game.
That scene literally has him standing still with Asuna's sword without moving a single muscle. On the other hand, the death animation (again inside his head) has him in motion.
@@ritoplsfixclient1667 i still think klein used the revival item kirito gave him after sachis death,it would make way more sense
3:50 In the french version, Kirito says "Every kid knows it, There's nothing more boring than watching other people play a game you made, but without you" Which sounds way more accurate
Well in the light novel Kirito said: There´s nothing more boring than watching other play a game. So it depends from the translate i guess
@@Der0310 I’m guessing Kirito never heard of Let's plays before?
@@brandonlyon730 we could just say in the sao universe, letsplayers mostly died off
"how is he doing that? Did he use the crystal?!?? HOW IS HE DOING THAT"
He's Jesus-Kun he can't die
HE BROKE THE GAME
It took 3 secs instead of 3 days :O
He used the Incarnation system 🤦🏻♂️
No.... He used *HACKS*
Reminds me of the vitality anime
"But i got so many questions!"
Yeah... we all did suzy haha
We all did~
I love how akihiko kayaba smiled right as he was stabbed by Kirito to like symbolize that they will be saved cause of their efforts. It was beautiful
Yeah he was planned to be early to save everyone by kirito as soon as possible because of all the players have stay at hospital for the time limit.
Back when I first watched SAO, I hadn’t realized just how crazy that wake-up scene really was. My brain got so used to the reality of SAO, that the outside world felt like I pipe dream, even though I knew he got out.
Everyone who died in Sao actually died for real irl. The only reason kirito and asuna didnt die is because there is a short delay before the NVG fries your brain. During that time Kayaba/Heathcliff/GM teleported both of them to safety before they died irl.
That scene right before he fights Heatcliffe and talks to Eagil and Clyne always makes me so sad and I’ve watched it like 7 times
it's Klein mate
Ballsdeep
@@shadowlibrarian400 69
Agil and Klein
Agil and Klein**
When the time Kirito hp gone, he returned in a split seconds because of his will to avenge Asuna and He surpassing the system by his will. If you noticed that Kayaba (I think he knows) not suprised or what so ever to stop kirito because he acknowledged Kirito surpassing the system by of his Will.
If its his will the cause of that..
Damn thats bad writing lmao
@@FzPura Not really I dont want to spoiling you but this will thing will become importent a few seasons later if you havn t watched Alicization and Alicization underworld yet.
Just added the last t from the importen(t) in the previous text.
Suzy to explain exactly what happened is when you see him fall back and shatter that wasn't actually what happened, that was kirito's imagination his hp did drop to zero however he did override the system and activated the incarnate system by sheer will power and strength just long enough for him to attack back :D hope this explains it for you 💗
Also this isn’t the full extension of kayaba’s reason and motivation unfortunately you have to go all the way to the 3rd season for more on him and his backstory :)
I see, I still don't understand the whole reason he did all these...m
"You get my references!?"
yes abridged
That parodi its so funny
“There can be only one”
Anybody seen scanners?
No *head exlpodes*
Was waiting for this and seeing that scene again is never easy
It wassnt eazy for me because i couldnt find any darn reason for akeheko to take 10000 hostages. Not one phylosofical reason.
Seeing the end of alicization is never easy
Amen to that.
how is it hard? nothing of worth happens
I’m a big supporter of SAO from the day the LA we’re announced as well as the Manga and Anime so it’s just a vey close to my heart
I know that you may have already clued in to it since it has been so long since you made these videos, but I figured I’d give an extra perspective.
Do you remember the revival crystal from episode three or four? It’s item description said it was capable of reviving someone if it was administered within the first ten seconds of their death in the game. So that means that for it to actually work, there has to be at the very least a ten, probably somewhere closer to fifteen to twenty, second delay from the moment of their death in the game to the moment the nerve gear was set to destroy their brains.
My theory is that because of that time period, they would be sent to that invisible platform overlooking the floating castle of Aincrad for a short while before they were actually killed so that they could see the whole thing for one last time. Since Asuna died, and Kirito died and killed Heathcliff (Akihiko Kayaba) within a short amount of time, they were still within the timeframe of being able to be resurrected and they were all sent to the “death lobby” per sé. However, the execution order was never actually carried through, because the moment that Heathcliff was defeated, the cardinal system was shut down; stopping all of its processes, including death. So, yes the other nearly four thousand people died, but those who were killed seconds before the game was cleared were spared, and Kirito was able to wake up after death, unlike so many others.
Thank you so much for all these videos! I’ve been staying up all night binging these and it’s so amazing to see your take on them and see you go through so many of the thoughts and processes I did years ago when I first watched this anime. I love the videos and I really hope to see more, of both your second season and I hope you go over the two parts of the newer third season as well! Sword Art Online never gets old for me and is priceless every time. I’m looking forward to it! Thanks again!
Suzy: "How is he doing that, why is he still alive?
Me: *He's the main character OBVIOUSLY*
Season 1: *shows kayaba evil*
War of underworld part 2 season: *kayaba was a legend*😢😭😭😭😭
"I reject your reality and subtitute my own!"
Edit: "Nice! Dungeon master!"
"what? no. Mythbusters. what the hell is Dungeon Master?"
@Brianna Drobot “Oh, I was so happy there for a second...”
Thanks for quoting the true SAO
Most hated villain is Coming.. I can't wait for ALO, I can't wait for her reaction 😍😍😍
He’s a perfert that stole Kritos waifu
do you guys really enjoy ALO?
everyone that died, did die up till him, he was allowed to live because he cleared the game... not gonna mention anything about a certain other person yet.
Actually Kirito made it out alive because he had so much passion to escape SAO that his brain defied the programing system otherwise Kirito would've died
eljefe950 That is so bullshit.
eljefe950 yea that’s a no bud. Kirito did override the system to stay alive for just a few more seconds so that he could stab Heathcliff by using incarnation, but heathcliff let him live.
@@GemKeeper87 Cap bro.. u jus made that shit up 🤣
17:12 "What's gonna happened to them?" Kirto:There's a reason it's called "Keeep watching, you'll see"
Your reaction is golden
Kirito had "resurrection" by the incarnate system and asuna did not die because klein uses the crystal, I have to say the anime adaptation was not good, explanations of the history and development of the characters jumped
@Joel Sutcliffe actually someone's from klein's guild took the item and use it to revive Klein (Klein died later) , but that wasn't show in the anime
abt kiritos ressurection from the system isnt true, he used his own willpower.
I'm sorry, but the moment I saw him have those flashbacks, I knew immediately what his answer was going to be. And I would have given the same answer.
"I reject your reality, and ... _substitute my own!"_
"Nice, Dungeon Master!"
"Ah... I was so happy for a second there..."
I only just now realized his real reason for creating the world. His dream was to achieve exactly what kirito did by accident. Forge a connection with someone.
He was a loner who didn't have much connection to people in the real world and couldn't relate to anyone. However, if he was placed in a world in which how hard you try and how long you work does directly effect your wealth and power? Working 20 hour days all of a sudden is guarenteed to help and eventually you will be forced into close quarters with someone who will eventually appreciate you, given enough time.. and assuming you aren't an asshole. Unfortunately for him, he was an asshole.. but at least Kirito got to love someone who he never would have even met if it wasn't for SAO.
Unlike real like, in which the amount of work required for something does not really have much of a relation to the benefit. You spend 10 years mining coal for 20 dollars an hour, and you won't be able to lift a house to show your efforts... but someone who spoke for 10 years on a successful podcast can buy a house to show off their efforts..
Damnn I loved your reaction! Makes me remember how i felt during my first time watching
Same here bud
Flynn you acted like that I had I blank expressed face the entire time the only time I smiled was when the last episode was done and then ggo happened “sigh’’
"i killed 4000+ people... because i imagined a castle in the sky.." ......whaaa?
Always did think of this one as a bit of a roller coaster of emotions episode. From the boss at the beginning, the revelation and duel, then the ending. It never lets up and causes so many feels, it's amazing....
The way I understood it was that Kirito was able to clear the game before the micro-waves were activated to fry him and Asuna’s brains
"Kirito was able to clear the game before the micro-waves were activated to fry him"
Could be. Asuna stepping in front of a blade is suicide. According to the deal she can't. So, safe.
the story isn't over yet, it still continues in the second half of the season.
"how is he doing that? Did he use the crystal?!?? HOW IS HE DOING THAT"
He glitched the system by a sheer determination to stay alive. This is later referred to as 'Incarnation' and is often represented by those yellow eyes of his
This is the kind of anime I could rewatch again and again
“His [ 2 ads later ] sword”
**laughs in adblock**
Nope, everyone still died, but like Kayaba said at the end "Congratulations on clearing the game"
I've always liked the idea of a castle in the sky. Fitting that we never really got to see it.
There's still more episodes
Episode 15 soon please. I'm loving your reactions to this. This ride ain't over yet.
2 years in a coma and he manages to step up and walk seconds after awakening. Now that's op.
The power of boners is a strange and wonderous thing.
RockHound32 looool y’all are too much 😂😂
@@Knight121198 Hell Yeah!
No one Gets Up, real word is a simulation too, of Akaba. They are still in the hospital, all the people in real word is NPC.
Suzy’s reactions give me life, I can’t wait to see her reactions to Part 2 of Season 1!
So Kirito and Asuna survive but the others who previously died are still dead. Now watch pt. 2. Then season 2. Then season 3 which is by far the best.
I would explain all your questions but I don’t wanna spoil anything lol there’s so much more to the story + other seasons! SAO is a pretty crazy ride but fun
Yeah, the new episodes are kinda really good.
As mentioned below and in the episode the people who died in the game actually died in real life. Kirito was an exception.
First time I saw this episode I cried a good bit. Came downstairs from my room with tears in my eyes only to get a weird look from my parents.
If you don't plan on continuing this series I recommend RWBY. One of my favorite shows.
@@allankaul8331 RWBY is the main characters first name initials, and the colour they're associated with :) If you're interested, I'd recommend the Red, White, Black, and Yellow trailers first (in that order)
R = Red/Ruby
W = White/Weiss
B = Black/Blake
Y = Yellow/Yang
Remember, there is a delay; which the one item could be used to save your life. The game ended before they were killed.
“This is some kingdom hearts thing right here.” 🤣🤣🤣
Kirito (Kazuto) was able to survive due to him winning the game within 10 seconds of him being "killed" (which was the window to revive players) therefore the nerve gear didn't get the chance to fry his brainbox.
That’s why I love anime the emotion it can make you feel so awesome
Even more when you watch it in Japanese
@@lmrcnar1037 not always. There are some dubs that are just as good if not better. But usually Japanese is better
Those thousand's people who die before kirito cleared the game, Sachi, the Beta Teaster at the beginning of the episode, they actually die in real world.
Just remember that he did it because of Metacritic
DO U KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE DIED JUMPING OFF A CLIFF SCREAMING " LEEROY JENKINS"
No sadly the ones that did die, died and cannot come back. I so want you to continue with the rest of the arcs.
15:55 "Are you fu***** serious?" -Kirito
Kirito alive because he reiceved a secret gift from Kayaba for clearing the game.
Remember when his eyes turned gold when he defeated Kayaba. That is the moment when... Nahh I will wait until you finish the season. Not gonna spoil anything
Suzy deserves respect. Shes a real devoted fan of anime shows
If you ever get the time for an anime film review, please watch A Silent Voice. Such an amazing film!!!
If sao has only 14 ep this gonna be the best ending
God this episode was so sad the sadness in Asunas voice when Kirito asked him to make sure she could kill herself broke my heart. The dub actors did a great job and this anime is probably one of my favorite story wise.(well season 1)
Asuna is alive because kayaba allow her to, remember he promised kirito that he wouldn't let asuna commit suicide.
6:00 AM in the morning i didnt even sleep yet and the notif just pops up, guess i need to finish this first before i go to bed ♥️♥️♥️😘
The true reason for Kayaba's deed is still unknown, but small details/connections are still being connected together. It's like a hidden meaning in the whole novel.
Akaba:
What, Kirito is is... OVER 9.000!!!!
Asuna:
¿¿WHAT 9.000?? ¡¡THIS IS IMPOSIBLE!! THIS IS A BUG.
The anime doesn't really mention it but in the light novel it is explained that heathcliff used his power as the admin and creator to keep asuna and kirito alive so he could talk to them which is why they survived
I loved this series, always have always will, intro and the ideals, imma so emotional rn 😭😭😭
Lol, “we aren’t suppose to like him”!!! The reality doesn’t have to add up to your moral code😂😂😂
Everyone that died did die. I can't wait to see what you think of the 2nd half of SAO now.
2nd half of season 1*
5:29 _Abridged Comedy Time_
_Asuna:_ What the hell, commander; why'd you paralyze me too?! I'm not gonna try anything.
_Kayaba:_ Really, Asuna? You expect me to believe that? Even in _that_ state, I'm not convinced you won't try to set me on fire with your mind. _brief pause_ You're tryin' to do it right now, aren't you?
_Asuna:_ Staaaaaaaaaare.
_Kirito:_ Easy, girl.
Yesss we've been waiting for this episode for so long! 15 Tomorrow?! You need to upload faster Suzy!
And just like that, the first known case of Will Incarnate was born within the Cardinal System. Overriding the system through will power. Something that becomes much more prevalent in the Alicization Arc due to the STL and a person's fluctlight being part of the processor. Something that doesn't get named until Accel World, some 20ish years after Kirito duels Kayaba.
Edit: If you think back at when Kirito fought the Christmas raid boss for the res item, it said to use it within a certain time frame after the player dies. There is a minute delay between dying in the game and dying IRL. Kirito managed to clear the game in less than a minute after Asuna died so she never got zapped.
If I was Kirito, I would cry from waking up like that too.
It's scary to know how much a virtual environment can do to you though.
I always cry when Kirito does. Strong but emotional at the right moments.
and here is when you realize that you want to know what will happen next and you see a chapter 15
Never would i have ever imagined seeing a reaction to SAO's 1st season in 2020. Trust me SAO gets better lol
Season 1 SAO it top notch though better than Alicization at least
@@cameronross5708 what season would you say is the best?
The best way to answer your question: “people die when they are killed...in game”.
7:49 I'm not the emotional type of person but shit that moment got me tear up a little
He doesn't die because he has strong will and he remembers all the deaths he has seen.
Every single person that died, died. But he and Asuna were lucky because they died when the game was cleared. A loophole. Well, that and that they are wearing extremely thick plot armor.
I mean kirito technically cleared the game and he made kayaba promise not to kill Asuna so yea lol
I’ve finished this show twice and I still don’t understand why Kirito and Asuna are the only ones that survived death. Can anyone explain?
That moment when the villain waits for the protagonist to finish his speech
That platform that they were standing on that was overlooking the castle is where all the players who died went while the system was deleting their avatars. However, since kirito and asuna beat the game, it logged everyone out and the mainframe deleted the world before it finished deleting their avatars meaning that they were still technically “alive” just waiting on the servers to delete them, but it deleted itself and logged them out before it finished deleting their avatars. If their avatars had been deleted, then the nerve gear would have disabled the safety and killed them
Nah, that 4000 people actually died, and ooo i've been waiting for so long for this video
Suzy: "You have to try it."
*Fails and dies*
Suzy: "OMG THAT'S NOT FAIR."
I’m pretty sure There’s an explanation on how he managed to live even though he *died*. It’s in the movie or Alicization and it goes like...
There was a scraped game mechanic that basically gave the player strengths and abilities based on their will.
This is from memory and I’m not even sure I got it right.
I think klein used the ressurection crystal and kayaba chose not to kill them
Kirito Vs Archie Sonic Ben Part 14 (Super Archie Sonic Ben Rage Act 2)
The girl that plays Asuna is the girl who plays the voice in *Ghost Hunt* you should watch that anime as well Suzy! love that anime :)
One of the underlying themes in SAO is the ability of willpower to override and break the limitations imposed by the system. That's how Asuna was able to break admin paralysis, how Kirito was able to force himself back together to beat Kayaba. There were also hints about it earlier, Kayaba mentioned earlier that Kirito exceeded his expectations, he was able to move faster than the system was supposed to restrict him to with his stats, enough so that Kayaba had to cheat to beat him. It shows up in later arcs too, though I'm not sure if it's explicitly referenced in the series anywhere.
No, we're not supposed to like him, but you don't have to like someone to understand them.
well becous they cleared the game its diffrent they did survive but everyone else actuley died. sorry to say :/
Well, the good part of Sword Art Online, you cen stop watching or see the not soo good arcs and seasons, but now you cam watch SAO Abridged (that is a GREAT parody, for a lot of people, better that the original show)
Waiting for the second arc of S1, S2, S3 and S4 which is ongoing.
Its weird. After this episode Kirito is still the hero but there are times when it feels like Kayaba was the hero behind the scenes that helped Kirito
I just want to point out that with how much HP the Skull Reaper had they must have been fighting it for hours.
I like to think that Klien used the revive crystal kirito gave him during the Christmas Event while fighting the commander which kinda explains why he died then came back for a moment
This is exactly my thought and to add on that I think why Asuna survived is because Kirito cleared the game within 10 seconds of her dying wich is the revival period.
