Hello, everyone. It's now time for Sword Art Offline 2.

Commentator Kirito Host A sun a

Commentator Kirito Host A sun a I'm your host, A sun a!

Commentator Kirito Host A sun a I'm your commentator, Kirito.

This program is an info-variety show, bringing you all the news about ALFHEIM Online and New Aincrad.

Starting with this episode, the show has been retooled,

and we'll have a new regular!

Here she is!

Commentator yuuki I'm yuuki!? I'm going to be your commentator!

I don't know much about this world, but I look forward to working with you all!

Welcome, yuuki!

I'm looking forward to working with you, too!

Looking forward to it, A sun a!

I'm Kirito. Call me by my first name, too. Looking forward to working with you.

Okay, Kirito! You can call me yuuki, too.

Right!

yuuki, your equipment's pretty dark, huh?

Yeah, because I'm from the Imp tribe.

I went for dark-colored equipment to match my hair and wings.

But it's nowhere near as dark as yours!

Right, rocking all-black equipment...

It's my thing.

Black's so cool, don't you think?

Yeah, it is!

Hey, not bad!

Right back atcha, Kirito!

There's a quest to go after a powerful black sword, you know...

Wanna go together sometime?

Yeah! I'm in!

Oh, and I know this quest where you can get black armor...

What?! Tell me more about that quest!

U-Uh, you two... we're in the middle of a show here.

There's a secret door near the Boss Room on Floor 16, see.

And when you get in, there's a goblin merchant.

And you get the black...

Is it going to be like this all the time, I wonder?

Well, if they get to be friends, I guess it's fine?

All right, let's get Sword Art Offline 2 started!

Trivia Master: Yui

When ALO passed from RCT's hands to venture company Ymir's, Trivia Master: Yui

one of the major updates introduced to ALO was New Aincrad. Trivia Master: Yui

Since it's based on Aincrad's backup data, it shares the same geographical data, Trivia Master: Yui

but Ymir implemented several changes, such as greatly enhanced floor bosses. Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

In terms of game balance, it's a totally different experience from the old SAO. Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

Well, no matter what kind of powerful enemy shows up, Trivia Master: Yui

they're no match for my analysis! Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

This has been Sword Art Trivia 2! Trivia Master: Yui

PLAYBACK CORNER

In this segment, we select various scenes from episodes

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

Today, let's playback Sword Art Online II Episodes 18-20!

First, here's a scene from Episode 18.

I wonder why seeing him like that can make you so sleepy?

Why don't I make us some tea to wake us up?

Hey, does Kirito's sleeping face really have a hypnotic effect?

If it does, then he doesn't need sleeping magic, huh? Awesome!

I don't know about an in-game effect, but seeing it really does make you sleepy.

Even I spaced out for a second from drowsiness just looking at Kirito sleeping.

Maybe it's a unique skill that he traded his Dual-wielding Sword skill for!

No, acquiring a lame skill like that isn't going to...

I mean, I don't think a bizarre skill like that exists, anyway.

Oh? Then let me try, too!

Excuse me! Please show us Kirito's sleeping face again!

Come on, you too, Kirito!

No, showing me my own sleeping face won't...

I mean, I don't think it'll work on me.

I mean, is there really such a thing as a hypnotic effect?

Well, you two?

They're already asleep!

Oh, so it does work on Kirito, too.

All right, here's our next scene. Here we go!

But considering that power, do you think ZEKKEN could be an SAO survivor?

That Leaf a, just look what she did while I was asleep!

I wanna do that, too!

Okay! It's Kirito, so you need a black pen, right?

Now be careful not to go overboard!

Yay!

Hey! Doing it while I'm asleep is one thing,

but scribbling over someone's face while they're awake...

You've got some nerve, yuuki.

I mean, don't give her that pen, A sun a!

Then it's all right if you're asleep?

What?

A sun a! I'm counting on you!

Roger that! yuuki!

Huh? Wait...

Cut it out!

All right! There you go!

Yay!

All right, here goes!

Go easy on him, okay?

All right, here's our next scene. Enjoy!

Of course. That day... right?

I got my hands on a super-rare food item, and you cooked us a stew.

That was some tasty meat... I think about it sometimes, even now.

RAGOUT

Hey, A sun a! What's this S-class rare item?

It's a rabbit-like animal called a Ragout Rabbit.

As expected from something that's hard to find, it's totally delicious!

Wow! Lucky you! I wish I could have some, too!

Hey, Kirito?

If you ever catch another Ragout Rabbit, let me have some, too!

Since New Aincrad inherited the old Aincrad's data,

there's a good chance it has Ragout Rabbits, too.

But I can't give any to someone who draws on my face while I'm sleeping.

Okay, then you can draw on my face, too!

You've really got some guts, kid.

All right, I'm gonna go to town on you!

H-Hey! Kirito!

Now you and I are comrades!

Let's go rabbit hunting!

Yeah!

Come on, you two!

Don't forget about the show!

Also, if you're going, wash your faces first!

Otherwise, even if you do get the meat, I'm not going to make a stew for you!

All right, we hear you!

G-Gotcha.

If Asuna's not gonna cook it, the meat won't taste half as good.

Well said!

All right, here's our next scene. Here we go!

Well, that would be ideal.

But don't trouble yourselves to use expensive items to recover.

Fight as long as Siune and I are able to heal you. You got that?

- Yes, teacher! - Hey now!

Oh? So in your guild, A sun a had the teacher role.

Yeah! Asuna's so sharp, good at teaching, and really reliable!

So she kinda has that vibe about her, you know?

Now that you mention it, that's true.

Not only that, but she's also diligent and dependable.

Yeah!

Also, she's effective at teaching!

She is, right?

Really, Kirito!

Also, when she's mad, she's scary like a teacher too, huh?

Yeah!

I can hear you, you two!

As punishment, Kirito, I'm not making your lunch tomorrow!

And yuuki, you turn in a written apology by tomorrow!

N-No way!

The one thing I look forward to everyday...

You shouldn't have said things that would make your teacher angry!

Trivia Master: Yui

One of the major updates added when New Aincrad was implemented in ALO Trivia Master: Yui

was Original Sword Skills. Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

This is a system allowing players to register the sword skills they create themselves. Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

Mastering Original Sword Skills is extremely difficult, Trivia Master: Yui

and among the most powerful are General Eugene's 8-hit Volcanic Blazer Trivia Master: Yui

and Mommy's Original Sword Skill, the 5-hit Starry Tear, Trivia Master: Yui

which should give you a good idea how incredibly powerful Yuuki's 11-hit combo is. Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

I'd like to create an Original Sword Skill that nobody else can emulate, too! Trivia Master: Yui

Trivia Master: Yui

Deadly blow! The Yui Special! Trivia Master: Yui

YUUKI'S QUESTION CORNER

In this corner, Kirito and I will answer questions from yuuki, who's still new to ALO.

Here's today's question!

Tell me what kind yuuki of relationship you two have!

Whenever I talk to A sun a, she mentions Kirito a lot, Tell me what kind yuuki of relationship you two have!

But are they friends? Or are they dating?

Uh, I guess you could say we're dating.

Yes, that's right.

Aha! How long have you been dating?

Uh, um... About a year, maybe?

And? Which one of you confessed your love first?

It was Kirito!

Wh-What did he say then?

"Let's get married.”

You two are married?

Well, we're only married inside the game.

But we've got a kid, too!

A kid?

Yes! Her name's Yui.

Though we're not related by blood.

But we think of her as our own child.

You're so lucky, both of you!

I want to marry A sun a, too!

What?

A sun a, I'm going to cherish you, okay?

Hey, A sun a? How many children do you want?

I'm going to go all-out, okay?

Uh...

Um, Y-yuuki?

How do you intend to have children when you're both girls?

Huh? They come out of cabbages, right?

So I'm thinking of looking real hard for cabbages with children inside them!

Kirito?

It's a race to see who can make A sun a happier!

Right! I'm not gonna lose, you know!

This has been Yuuki's Question Corner!

The time has come to say goodbye.

yuuki, what did you think of today's episode?

This was my first time on TV, so I was nervous at first,

but I had such a good time!

A sun a, I'm looking forward to next time, too!

How about you, Kirito?

I never really got a chance to have this kind of real conversation with yuuki before,

but she's like a kindred spirit, so I enjoyed myself.

I'm counting on you next time, too.

Sure thing! Kirito!

All right, let's meet again in the next Sword Art Online II video!

Bye-bye!
