Hello, everyone. It's now time for Sword Art Offline.

- I'm Leaf a, your host. - And I'm Kirito, your commentator.

This is an info-variety show that will bring you news

on everything that's happening in ALFHEIM.

We'll be bringing you big-name guests every episode, so please look forward to them.

You've become quite the celebrity, Kirito.

I noticed people staring at me in town.

But I just assumed it was because Spriggans are so rare.

Well, it's not that Spriggans are a rare race, they're just unpopular.

Their special magic isn't geared towards combat, so it just isn't very useful.

I have no regrets about choosing black!

Now, now, the very fact that a different race was walking around Sylph territory,

and in their capital city of Sylvain, to boot, was what was unusual.

Right, a player doesn't have the right to attack while in another race's territory.

In other words, there's a risk of being PK'ed without being able to fight back.

Correct.

But in spite of that, you keep drawing attention to yourself.

If anything happens, I'll just fly away.

Honestly, Kirito, you never take anything seriously.

And without further ado, let's get Sword Art Offline started!

PLAYBACK CORNER

In this segment, we select various scenes from episodes

included on the Blu-ray and DVD and comment on them along with our guest.

P-Perverted topics and imagery are off-limits!

You're still holding a grudge about last time...

Look, you don't have to worry about more land mines like that, even from the upcoming guests.

I won't let them, you hear?

"But it's okay for me to," is that it?

Don't get clingy with my Daddy!

"Daddy"?

Yui! I told you not to show yourself yet!

It's worse for Leaf a to get clingy with you like that!

You've got it all wrong! I'm not clinging to him!

Huh? When did you get so big, Yui?

Oh, that. It's hard to have a conversation when she's pixie-sized, right?

Do private pixies have a function like that?

She's a fairly unusual type.

I don't really get it, but whatever.

And now, allow me to formally introduce today's guest.

Private Pixie (?): Yui

Hello, I'm Yui. Private Pixie (?): Yui

Hello! Now, let's start watching the clips with Yui.

Let's start with this scene.

Leaf a!

Recon (Leafa's boyfriend)

You're okay! Recon (Leafa's boyfriend)

Oh, he must be your boyfriend!

Recon (Leafa's boyfriend)

Recon (Leafa's boyfriend) He is not! He showed me the ropes when I first started playing ALO, that's all!

Recon (Leafa's boyfriend) He's just a member of my party!

Recon (member of Leafa's party) He's just a member of my party!

If I remember right, he's a friend in real life, too, isn't he?

Recon (member of Leafa's party) Well... I'd call him more of an acquaintance than a friend.

Recon Aquaintance (not friend) Well... I'd call him more of an acquaintance than a friend.

That's cold.

Did you say something?

N-No! I was just thinking, "Boy, Leaf a sure has lots of friends!"

In both ALO and real life.

No, not that many.

I don't go out of my way to make friends in ALO, so I only have a few dozen.

"Only a few dozen," she says...

H-Hey, let's move on to the next clip!

If you're here, in another race's territory, you can't complain if you get killed, right?

Scary-looking Old Man Who is this scary-looking old man?

His name is Sigurd. He's a Sylph.

Old Sylph Man

Old Sylph Man He has pretty impressive sword skills, and he's also passionate about politics.

Old Sylph Man How can I put it...

No matter when I log in, Sigurd is there.

Game Addict?

Game Addict? Well, that's not wrong, but still...

Well, that's not wrong, but still...

So in other words, he's a serious gamer?

Yes, I sometimes wonder what he does to support himself in the real world.

A non worker... He might be a student.

I can't picture him as a middle- or high-schooler.

Old Man? Maybe we should ask him how old he is sometime.

Leaf a...

Listen, it's strictly forbidden to talk about the real world while inside the game.

Age and gender go without saying, but you also must never ask about jobs or friends!

R-Really?

Personally, I hate being asked about the game while in the real world a lot more.

Recon is a school friend, right? What's wrong with talking about the game?

That jerk Recon calls me "Leaf a" at school!

Ah, in that case, go ahead and deck him. That's a serious breach of etiquette.

Will do! The next time I see him, I'll punch him with all I've got!

Daddy, I have a question!

What do you talk about with your real-world friends?

Didn't I just say that you shouldn't ask about the real world?

- We want to know! - We want to know!

Um, in terms that would be easy for you to understand, Yui...

I guess you could say that I... I...

In the real world, I'm a solo player, too.

Kirito?

Ah, I understand. You stress efficiency in the real world, too, Daddy?

I-I guess!

I'm begging you... Move on to the next clip.

In that case, next up is this scene!

Old Men (lots)

Old Men (lots) There are lots of scary-looking old men!

I know ALO has a lot of male players, but the Salamanders have a ton of grim old dudes.

Grim Old Salamander Dudes (lots)

Grim Old Salamander Dudes (lots) Their popularity with combat-loving guys might be because they're a race with high combat stats.

Grim Old Salamander Dudes (lots)

Grim Old Salamander Dudes (lots) According to my data, they specialize in group combat,

Grim Old Salamander Dudes (lots) and excel in large-scale battles.

Yeah, they do give off a "horde of jocks" vibe, don't they?

Okay, let's move on to the next clip before we get any complaints from Salamanders.

That's my Daddy! You're so cool!

Kirito (Demon Ver.)

Kirito (Demon Ver.) Thanks, Yui.

Kirito (Demon Ver.) T don't think I could've handled it if that caption had read "Old Man" or "Grim Dude."

I-I was startled a little, that's all!

You were totally scared when I transformed, weren't you, Leaf a?

I was scared, yes, but I was worried sick that you might get killed.

Sorry. Your backup really saved my butt back then.

Trivia Master: Oberon

This beauty borders on the sublime, does it not? Trivia Master: Oberon

No, not me. Her. I am referring to Titania. Trivia Master: Oberon

Trivia Master: Oberon

My consort, who appears in the Shakespearean comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream. Trivia Master: Oberon

Allow me to introduce the Queen of Fairies. Trivia Master: Oberon

Trivia Master: Oberon

Hair like silk. Skin like porcelain. Trivia Master: Oberon

Slender arms and legs. A clean, sweet scent. Trivia Master: Oberon

A bearing as chilly as a blade of ice. Trivia Master: Oberon

Trivia Master: Oberon

But what I find most enchanting is the look of scorn in her eyes, Trivia Master: Oberon

as if she is gazing upon a moldy rag! Trivia Master: Oberon

Trivia Master: Oberon

In this segment, we discuss the topic displayed on the slot machine.

Yui will stay with us as our guest in this segment.

The topic is decided randomly? I can't wait to find out what it is!

Okay, let's begin! Slot, start!

LOVE TALK

"Love"?

You're still too young for this!

I don't want to have the "Where do babies come from?" talk again!

I've already learned that!

You what?!

You told me, Daddy!

You said that all humans are born from cabbages!

That's right! That's fine!

L-Let's spin again, shall we? Slot, restart!

LOVE TALK

Searching.

"Love talk." AKA "The Talk."

A discussion topic that has long been loved among people.

Daddy isn't too big a fan of it...

It's a theme that I'm extremely interested in.

For starters, what do "to love" and "to like" mean?

To like one's friends. To like one's family. To like one's lover.

Humans have various kinds of "like."”

So does this mean that "love" is what humans call the "like" that has the highest ranking?

Um... It's true that romantic love is a very strong "like," but that doesn't feel quite right.

Yui, there are some things that you can't assign a rank to.

Oh, you mean that they are all equivalent?

Well, I suppose.

Friends, lovers, and whatever each have slightly different kinds of "like,"

but they're all precious to you.

Please provide me with specific examples.

Who do you like, Daddy? Multiple answers are allowed.

The people that Kirito likes?!

You and Mommy are precious to me, of course.

"M-Mommy"?!

Kirito, about this "Daddy"” and "Mommy" stuff you two have been using...

Daddy, do you like Leaf a?

W-What are you asking, Yui?!

Of course I do.

And also Lisbeth, Silica, Pina, Agil, and Klein.

Sure, I like them all.

I could take or leave that last one, though...

Ah, "like"” in that sense...

This is hard to understand.

- Yui. - Yes?

Who do you like better? Me or Mommy?

Comparison is impossible.

And that's fine.

And on that happy note, this has been Slot Talk!

The time has come to say goodbye.

It's over already?

There's a lot more that I wanted to ask. That's too bad.

Maybe next time.

Next time? When will "next time" be?

Next time... will be next time, so I guess we--

Leaf a, wrap this up! Hurry!

Let's meet again in the next Sword Art Online video!

Bye-bye!
