    At the same time, the plot dictates that Kirito only has what? A week to save Asuna? Would you rather he go in overpowered or somehow become uber top-level in less then a week in a pretty fresh and new game?

    IE: Plot is gonna plot

    Kirito is being really stupid about hiding his bugged/hacked account.
    First off he should have at least changed the name slightly so that Evil-kun wouldn't be able to spot that he entered the game from the other side of the planet if he felt like it, then he shouldn't have blatantly abused his hacked skill levels and at least tried to make it look like he was a really lucky newbie so that the guys wont instantly be crying to the GMs.

    Spoiler: show
    I bet the only reason he kept getting away with it (even if not explicitly written in the novel) was that the SAO creator was pissed off about ALO and kept shit hidden for kirito secretly.

    When was it stated he only had a week? I must have missed that.

    When he's holding his Nervegear, about to go into Alfheim, he has a flashback to the hospital where the new antagonist (dunno his name) is talking about how the antagonist and Asuna are gonna get married in a week.

    It's not shown in the anime, but he changed his name from being displayed in roman characters to kanji in the LN.

    I have to admit that the storyline is borderline jumping the shark at the moment but I'm still compelled to keep watching for some reason.

    Spoiler: show
    I'm just not really happy about the shift in Asuna's character from strong female protagonist to imprisoned damsel in distress. The whole sistercousin being in love with Kirito thing seems kinda out of nowhere also.

    Just kinda wondering why her dad didn't think of checking the servers for Asuna / the other 299 people himself. Then again he's probably not that perceptive if he couldn't see that his own daughter has loathed the jackass since forever.

    That's and he's old. Old people are notorious retards when it comes to technology. Perhaps it's the same in the future?

    I believe that with the way kanji works, it can be pronounced/interpreted several different ways. Don't quote me on that, though.

    in sao he used katakana and in alo he used kanji I believe. or it was vice versa I don't remember. anime just went with English. either way, it I'd definitely better just to not think about it.

    I just considered it him going, "Fuck you!" to the guy in using his name. Granted, were I in this situation, I'd probably run to the police/media instead of trying to beat him in the game.

    question about the new chick from the latest ep
    Spoiler: show
    Is she Kirito's cousin? Sounded like the same VA and I think they both had the same fighting style.

    Add the 300-some people still in a coma as a result of similar technology commandeered from SAO and someone MIGHT want to actually investigate.

    yes.
    audience will probably find out next ep, but they themselves won't find out until near the end I believe.

    This is the same world that allows a game using the same customer electronic technology that imprisoned 10,000 in a single game to go ahead and create another game that used the same source code as the aforementioned game, not accounting for the whole crazier student of crazy creator.
