SAO Ep. 11-12 Review


*Warning: This post contains SPOILERS. If you do not want to be spoiled, DO NOT READ THIS POST
....I warned you... O.O*


Hiya, I'm back with the review for episode 11, "Morning Dew Girl", and episode 12, "Yui's Heart" of Sword Art Online!!!
I have to say, these are actually two of my most favorite episodes, because Yui finally gets her debut!!! ^^ (It's also sad though...:'( )

Episode 11 basically starts with Kirito and Asuna who ask and get a two-week break from the KoB guild for their honeymoon!!! :D They move into a house on the 22nd floor, specifically chosen for the lack of people and monsters because Asuna has lots of fans.

Aww...:3 They so cute together <3 >.<

The next day, Kirito takes Asuna to the forest, telling her that he heard a rumor about a ghost wandering around (Asuna can't stand ghosts and astral beings; I read about it in the light novels :P). Then, the two see a little girl in a white dress, creeping Asuna out. The girl suddenly faints though, and Kirito runs up to catch her.
The next day (...again) the girl wakes up and reveals herself to be called Yui. However, she can not remember anything and her mind seems to have regressed into that of an infant's. The couple try to introduce themselves to Yui, but, since she can't pronounce their names, Yui calls Kirito and Asuna "Papa" and "Mama".

Sandwich-San reappeared!!!! >.< Yui's so cute ^^

They have lunch (sandwiches!!! >:D) and soon Yui falls asleep. Troubled, Kirito and Asuna decide to take Yui to the Town of Beginnings on the first floor to search for clues about her. (I should probably also add that Yui didn't have a health bar or color curser, so they weren't sure if she was a player or NPC)

Asuna being a badass!!!! >v<

Later, they go to the first floor. After hearing a scream, they meet a female player named Sasha, who was trying to save three kids from the Army. (The Army was trying to collect taxes from the people on the first floor.) Kirito and Asuna immediately rush in to help, Asuna drives off the Army players (since they couldn't attack players in towns and such, she just kept knocking them down until they retreated) and Kirito protects Yui and the kids. The kids thank Asuna for saving them, when suddenly Yui says that she had never been on the first floor before. She screams out, and faints.

In the next episode, Kirito, Asuna, and Yui (who recovered) stayed at the church where Sasha took care of some kids that were trapped in SAO and learn that Yui was not one of them. Then, they are visited by Yulier, a member of the Aincrad Liberation Force or the Army guild. She requests that Kirito and Asuna help her with rescuing her guild leader, Thinker, who was tricked by Kibaou (responsible for Cobalt's death and sending the group of Army members to the 74th floor; see episode 9) and went to a high-leveled dungeon unarmed without any armor. The couple doubt Yulier, thinking that it may be a trap, but after Yui energetically says that she wasn't lying, the two chose to believe her and agree to help. Kirito and Asuna tell Yui to stay at the church, but she stubbornly refuses and they decided to take her with them.
In the dungeon, Yulier, Asuna, and Yui walk behind Kirito, who kills all the monsters. Then, Kirito shows Asuna all the frog meat drops he recieved and Asuna throws them all away :P

I remember that when I saw this, I thought about how
nasty it would be to put raw meet in your mouth....O.O

Eventually, they see a safe area where Thinker is, and Yulier runs toward him. However, Kirito notices a strong boss, The Fatal Scythe, and protects her right before she is killed. Asuna and Kirito then face the boss while Yulier and Yui go to the safe area and teleport out. The boss is extremely powerful and after one blow, Kirito and Asuna can't stand up. Just before The Fatal Scythe finishes off Kirito, Yui steps in between them. The boss attempts to kill Yui, but is blocked by a purple barrier with a tag saying "Immortal Object". Her clothes change back to the white dress she originally wore, and Yui summons a huge sword, killing The Fatal Scythe. Then, Yui tells Kirito and Asuna that she remembered everything.

Haha, look at Yui's legs >.< She's so cute, even when she's killing
a huge, scary boss monster.

The three go to the safe area later, Yui tells the couple that she was actually an AI (Artificial Intelligence), named Yui-MHCP001. She was created by the Cardinal system to govern the players' emotion, and was given emotions herself to make players feel comfortable when she talked to them. When the game started, the players all had negative feelings like anger, hate, and desperation, and Yui was forbidden to meet and help them. Then, she saw Kirito and Asuna, who felt happiness and other positive emotions, and wanted to meet them.

*sob, sob*

Then she tells them that since she defeated The Fatal Scythe, the Cardinal system would erase her, recognizing her as a foreign object. Asuna hugs Yui tightly as she disappears and says goodbye. Just before the GM keyboard in the safe room disappears, Kirito mangages to save Yui's program to his Nerve Gear in real life and create an in-game object called "Yui's Heart" (It's kind of like Pina's Heart; see episode 4). The two go back to their house on the 22nd floor, and Asuna makes Yui's Heart into a necklace. :'(


Episode 12 was so sad :'( I kept crying.


It's such a shame that Yui had to die...or did she??? O.o
Eh, you'll find out what I'm talking about later -.-

Well, that's all for today!!! :D I hope you'll join me next time!

By the way, I have a bunch of pictures and wallpapers of SAO, but since I'm so slow, I won't be able to post them until I finsih TT^TT I mean, I could post them now if I wanted to, but I feel like I should finish the review first.
