#SwordArtOnline #SAO #Anime - Zábava
For the record, Lisbeth was the first person to know that Kirito had the dual wielding skill - after forging Dark Repulsor, she asked why he needed another sword when he had one as badass as Elucidator, and that’s when he revealed the skill to her. This just went understated in the anime because it would have been a major spoiler for this episode - but it wasn’t in the LNs. This boss fight happened in Vol 1, whereas the Lisbeth arc where she forged the sword happened in Vol 2. If you’re reading the LNs in volume order, you would have already known about Kirito’s dual wielding prior to meeting Lisbeth, but that’s not the case in the anime.
Ouhh..i see
TBH the anime aligned the story better. LN seems like it needed to start off with a bang as if it was entering a competition to grab the judges eyes.
@@outstraw9015 TBF there was a whole WN before the LN (not that I’ve read it)
Vol 1 of the LN was written the way it was because that was the rules of the competition for which it was submitted (Dengeki Bunko). The work submitted must be a “closed work” - meaning the end of that story cannot start in the book submitted and end in another book. The publishing of the LN was one of the rewards of the competition. For the record, Vol 1 of 86 is written in the exact same way.
FTR, I actually find Vol 1 as a standalone novel to be quite good, and as far as the stories being completely out of order, while annoying I can live with it because I have a chronological order listing of the entire saga.
What I found annoying is as more and more story gets added to the universe - and not just novels, but anime original and movie original content - the more Vol 1 gets retconned.
That just leaves the question when he showed her that skill
4:45 Asuna is just happy because she's never seen Kirito acting that way with friends before. From her POV he's always alone.
Kirito is seriously so bad ass. This shows the reason i love Anime, and i will forever treasure this anime for being the one i loved first.
And this is my first time anime
@@Hoshiko1945 You should see SAOI Abridged
It's terrible, wtf?
@@majin2351 Congrats, you have an opinion and so do I.
@@GossgamingGG why do you like it though
Since it was brought up a couple times - here's explanation on the sword skills.
Basically, you can have in your hands whatever you want and try to fight with it. If item is heavy and fast enough - it'll do the damage. Trick is - skills in this game have attached to them animation based Sword Skills, which take control of your body and move it at inhuman speed, thus making a whole ton of damage. They are followed by light effects and are unlocked as you practice the corresponding skill, such as one-handed-sword. If you switch to one-handed-axe - you will not be able to use one-handed-sword Sword Skills. To have animation based attack for 2 swords simultaneously - you need Kirito's Dual Wielding, but you can still use them without it. Although it should be noted that your stats have to allow for you to actually hold two heavy pieces of metal and wield them.
Another important part is player input. Animation based attacks allow small deviations, for example by moving the body for extra momentum or precision where it doesn't interfere with animation. Experienced players can execute Sword Skills with better efficiency. Another - while animations are performed at inhuman speeds - it doesn't mean they are at the speed limit - virtual bodies take commands from the brain and can perform them as fast as commands are given, outside the limitations of physical world. This means, you can either outperform the Sword Skill and help the animation to be done even faster, or even perform the same set of motions as animation but without the Sword Skill, although it would take lots of practice in both cases. The first option - is what Kirito did in the boss fight, thus the exhaustion he felt.
So Dual Wielding is a Skill exclusive to Kirito for reasons that will be explained in the coming episodes, it allows for the access of the 16 hit combo "Starburst Stream" and another ability or two I think? But yes, its possible for people to equip 2 Weapons but it isn't practical as Skills are tied to only 1 weapon. (Its not really explained later so ill just detail it now and reference a 'side story' character to explain it that doesn't appear in the anime) So there is a girl who was inspired by Kirito in a side story that sadly never shows up in the anime, she ends up equipping 2 Swords but doesn't have access to the Dual Wielding Skill, so to "Simulate" it, she utilizes 1 Handed Sword Skills with both weapons, not as effective as the Dual Wielding Skill Kirito has, but its a possibility, just not many ever really thought of it I believe?
which side story bro imma read it?
so the technical of the side story is adapted in ALO and used by kirito just like how u explained it if my memory correct
its bcs dual wield allow user to charge two sword simultaneusly?
@@naitikc2668 not sure specifically, if you look up the character "Lux" you might be able to find it, I never read it myself, only read her wiki page when I saw her in the video games since I liked her design and saw that she had a side story interaction with Leafa and someone else.
@@bahrurri93 yes, I don't think Lux copied him in SAO though she was an SAO survivor, its a shame that she doesn't appear in the anime since her story is really interesting.
⚔ YAAASSS *THE* EPISODE!!!!!
Welcome, Duel Wielding Kirito!!!
*Star Burst Stream!!!* 🌟 ⚔
dude kirito went very far from this to alicization with his dual wielding skill
@@PriGoistic especially when he did that with Eugeo's sword,man that gave me chills
Every episode of the first part of S1 is such a banger
Cant wait for the next
there's 4 seasons of sao
@@SkullCart ik
I'm talking about S1 tho
Not other szns
The Black Swordsman - "When he draws his second blade, no one will be left standing"
i think the duelwielding skill means you can use other skills on both weapons. like others can hold 2 weapons but can only use 1 skill on 1 weapon
Also, Kirito estimates that there are slightly more than twenty techniques to the Dual Blades skill. However, that is known at this time only
- Star Burst Stream (16-hit combo attack, like in the video)
- Cross Block (Defensive Skill, This skill is used to block Gleam Eye's attacks)
- Double Circular (2-hit combo attack)
- The Eclipse (27-hit combo)
@@Luxius. wait the eclipse? Did he used it in the anime?
@@tnsazngetsu yea, he used it in Aincrad's final fight against Heathcliff (he accidentally activated the skill system even though he previously planned to use normal abilities)
Would be neat if the dual wielding wasn’t limited to just 1 handed swords and you could use a spear and a mace at once or an axe and a dagger
Fun fact: another VR anime called Accel World has a heroine that also has the move Starburst Stream. SAO and Accel World has the same author so it's most likely a reference.
Considering that a parent of one of the AW characters has been introduced in SAO Unital Ring (not 100% confirmed, but name, description, and other factors like the company the grandfather works for all match up), plus the use of the I system and a FL in the Imperial Palace in AW, it's probably more than just a reference. It looks very much like AW and SAO are interconnected.
@@madcat1738I always believe its connected, bcs in one of the episode where the AW MC research the past of VR, the Nerve Gear from SAO appear and described as "ancient tech" or something like that
@randomwanderingman8627 many people believed at the time it was an Easter egg, since the progression in VR would likely have developed something along those lines. Plus early on people said Reki said they weren't connected (I've never seen a quote from him on that so I don't know).
But I was referring strictly to the LNs and not the animes in this case. There was also a non-canon short story where Kirito and Haru met in BB. As well as the SAO/AW video game.
Starburst stream is not 50 hit according to the novel it's actually 16 hit
Oh its 16 hit? I thought it’s actually 21 combo hit
@@LonerWarrior in the anime you saw 21 hit because of the mistake of the animator
@@LonerWarrior yeah Canonly its a 16 Hit Combo
I think animators combined the other abilities of Dual Wielding skill to make a round off around 50.
Starburst Stream with 16 hit,Eclipse with 27 hit,a two hit striking combo and some others.
@@San_d_alphone no in the novel he beat that monster with only starburst stream 16 hit combo
I believe dual wielding is a skill that allows the user to use both sword to combo or use the swords full potential I think but if not,then in the next episode Kirito will explain what is dual wielding and how it is different that just holding both swords in both hands
OH YEAH now this is THE episode thay made Kirito legendary⚔🙌
Kirito went all out against that boss 🔥🔥🔥
Gleam Eyes is the most fun kind of boss, which in a death game would make him the most terrifying: he's just a giant dps check. No phases, no focusing. He just deals damage and takes damage.
And in literally any other kind of game, that would be my jam all day long. But not in Aincrad.
You have to remember (explained in the first episode when he was tutoring Klein) that the game attacks works with "skills" (when the weapon lighten up). Anybody could use 2 swords, but they won't be able to trigger skill attacks that way unless they have the dual wielding skill suited for making attack with those (like the Starbust Stream he used during the fight).
bro using a dual heavy sword is hard lmao, in real life most impossible things to do
-> Anyone can equip 2 swords if they want. but skills for double wielding won't appear.
-> So, instead of having 1 sword skills for both hands, having skills that combined both the sword and shield is more efficient.(Though I can think of 1 girl that is able to use 1 sword skills with both hands which is harder and less efficient, to hit crazy combos...)
0:50 seconds when u said ive seen this sword somewhere its from tensure when the orc lord or disaster fought rimuru with that cleve
Waking up early to study for my test doesn’t rly end up happening cuz yo bich aah needed to post this rn
"My men do not even know the meaning of the word surrender"
"BUT WE'RE WILLING TO LEARN!"
Finally!! Most hype episode imo.
Also regarding the duel wield skill. You probably can just use two weapons but you will have no skill to use for it just like starburst stream.
The whole time they are sitting there talking with her hugging him I am just thinking "Do bosses respawn? If so please hug outside!"
Are you serious? No bosses don’t respawn regardless if it’s in a room or in the open
Yeah in the LN the aincrad liberation army took over the lower floors and kinda act like a military/ police force.
They took over in the chaos
So if you wanted to stay in the town of beginnings they would basically force you to join their ranks or imprison you
In the novels Kirito explains how using sword skills is way more effective than just attacking yourself with your weapons.
You can absolutely equip 2 swords at the same time. But you can only use sword skills with both weapons at the same time, if you have the dual wielding skill.
So without this skill, using 2 swords is just not effecive enough. Using 2 handed weapons or a shield is way better.
And dual wielding is something very special in SAO. That will be explained in the next episodes.
the dual wielding skill works differently than you think, everyone can equip what they want, so an axe or even a mace in each hand, a sword in each hand. However your loadout becomes "irregular" which locks your use of sword skills into just a single weapon, the skill "dual wielding" allows the user to use sword skills with both weapons simultaneously.
I wanna see his when he sees what happens in next episode really badly 😂😂😂
Ngl your reactions are one of the best
10:48 BRO SAID LET ME SOLO HIM
Finally, I'm waiting for the reaction to this episode
Im just happy u watching in subbed! Man of culture
YEAHHH I want to see ep 11 so much omfg
You're about to love the next episode
So according to the novel, The Gleam Eyes had about two thirds of his HP when they got into the room.
That means that even accounting for the damage Asuna and Klein did, Kirito basically took down at least half the boss' health bar by himself, and the fight lasted less than a minute.
Will be a good throwback to this ep from last season
When kirito uses starburst stream against ______ you know who (underworld arc)
Some games force u to equip a shield in your left hand, or use both hands in one sword to make the attacks syronger, some games let u equip 2 swords buy others don't
That OST is fire!!
One of the best episode of this series
This is what I’ve been waiting for
I'll try to explain using the vita game as reference, i think its pretty accurate.
There are different kinds of weapons, dagger(1 handed) spear(2 handed) rapier (1 handed which asuna uses) long sword(2 handed klien uses) mace(1 handed) shield (1 handed) also 1 handed sword which kirito uses and others maybe cant remember. All weapons have different sword skills( you see activates when their weapon glows). You can equip 2 one handed weapon yes but you can only activate its sword skill one at a time so instead of activating one skill from 1 sword then activating another skill with the other is possible its not practical, so instead you can equip shield to boost your def(gotta say shields are very useful in the game). Here comes dual-wielding, it is categorized under weapon types and has exclusive skills which are combo based and dish alot of damage with no guard(shield) trade off. Which you can remember asuna points out in the episode. Yes you can equip 2 swords but not very practical considering doesnt give you access to dual wield sword skills.
bro I watched this seires like 4 years ago and to this day Klein is my fav character
The sword is the same sword that either zabuza or the water dude in sasuke old team use
All I want in life to be loved like sauna loves kirito
Next episode gonna be iconic
Kirito *has 1 HP, Faints, collapses*
Imagine he takes fall damage from hitting the floor and dies
I believe you can use two swords or even two peices of wood but the problem would be you have no power going to the second wep, they arent just learning skills and getting better the same way you would irl, they're gaining invisible stats that give them super powers inna sense and acquiring super powered attacks that can only be used with certain items and conditions met, and without those conditions met they would be like us trying to fight those monsters, so essentially your second wep would be dead weight, but kiriko has powers that allow him to use those skills through both swords making it an actual viable option for him.
You can use two sword at the same time but you can’t deal the huge amounts of damage without the skill. Dual Wielding is a series of two sword skill, there are various of animation of the skill
You don't actually need the skill to use 2 sword, you only need the skill to deal enough damage to 1 shot the boss
I've been waiting for this moment
the infamous duel
Dual wielding is a massive buff in games after all since you will have the stats of both of your weapons added to your main stat. Well most games, dps in games like Skyrim if I remember correctly will depend on which weapon you use to hit the enemy.
In D&D-esque systems (Pathfinder, Pillars of Eternity, Baldur's Gate, etc) dual wielding usually means trading accuracy for extra attacks. More story-inclined systems like VtM and Cypher (seen in Torment: Tides of Numenera) either consider dual-wielding as using a peculiar two-handed weapon or provide negligible bonuses. What you describe is a "stat-based" approach when equipment on a virtual doll influences its stats which then are considered in interactions regardless of where they came from; it's a property of relatively simple systems (RPGMaker uses that by default, for example).
@@Absurdated in SAO it's more like in Elden Ring (and probably older souls games, but I haven't played them) - the tradeoff is in the weight. Kirito can't equip heavier armor because of the weight of two swords. So, he's basically a glass cannon, a rather extreme thing for a game with real death, but the DPS hasn't failed him so far 😅
iconic ep
Man I forgot how the graphics is good considering the year this was released.
It's hard to tell because in the Anime there is no clear description or explanation given. The black and white photo that Pinako is looking at is a picture of Ed's father and herself as a young adult.
U thinking of Buster Blade on Cloud Strife probably in Final Fantasy 7 x3 or Buster Blader in yugioh. I think Berserk have buster blade too.
Another ep is also fucking sickk. I cant wait. Especially bc he pulled a ZAWARUDO!!! against kirito
duo wielding, the skill makes every duo wielder becomes Kirito omegaLUL
Hold on I think the dual-wielding skill is more about the sword abilities you know like maybe the two wheeled skills. Ask you to hold two swords, and use both of their abilities at once.
for the record Gleam Eye is shown in opening for this season
klien is the homie ong I love that dude
Guys do plz like the video so we can get the reaction of 10th ep just tomorrow
YESS GOATED EPISODE
looking back at this episode/anime, how messed up eould it be if Kirito died from fall damage when he fell after defeating the boss
Even irl you'd have to be mad skilled/talented to fight with two regular swords simultaneously. So no you wouldn't be able to just pick up two swords and fight like a pro with them just like that lol
if you mean the sword of ZABUZA from naruto, that is similar to the monsters sword.
Long story short anyone can use two swords but kirito is the only one that has a skill involving both swords at the same time, every other skill works on one sword. Ex: skill one on the right sword and skill two on the left sword. But kirito using starburst stream means one skill for both swords. i think thats how it works.
I am not sure if you have seen naruto but zabuza the first mission they took outside the village had the same sword at the boss
Whats you guys first anime? Comment below ⬇
I like how hes watching sds and sao at the same time as its the same studio lol..
A1 abandoned sds s3 for sao 😭
Even in sao games,sao hollow realization in ps4..dual wielding is unique skill that need to be unlock by clearing certain condition..
let me explain it to you, the skill "Starburst Stream" is the skill that only Kirito have, because it is given to the person with the highest speed in the game, the light on people weapons are the skills themself, but only Kirito has skill that can light both of his weapon at the same time, and skill "Starburst Stream" give Kirito unlimited combo with the "light weapon"... like Asune doing with her 4 streak combo skill. It starts at 15 combo. In the later seasons Kirito reaches unlimited
hope it help to understand
So Dual Wielding is Kirito exclusive. Anyone can equip 2 swords but you can only use skills from one sword at a time. It would be like choosing to take a second rifle over bullet proof armor. In practicalities, body armor is the better choice over a second rifle. Kirito however, can use skills from both swords at the same time.
SAO will never be the same after watching the abridged
1:00 This is Zabuza's sword in Naruto
let me explain it to you, the skill "Starburst Stream" is the skill that only Kirito have, because it is given to the person with the highest speed in the game, the light on people weapons are the skills themself, but only Kirito has skill that can light both of his weapon at the same time, and skill "Starburst Stream" give Kirito unlimited combo with the "light weapon"... like Asune doing with her 4 streak combo skill
hope it help to understand
It's close to reality that's why you can't dual wield swords without the skill. I'm sure they can pick up 2 swords but wielding both is a different thing
Anyone better versed in sao correct me if im wrong, but i belive the "fifty hit combo" was a translation mistake...im pretty sure that it was a "fifteen-hit combo"... The fifteen-hits were consistantly referred to in future seasons, manga/light novels and games. But still, considering that the highest "normal" skills are in the single digit area, it's still one hell of a skill...
Also, it wouldn't be so far off for the translation your watching to have some mistakes in it...even on the same website, there can be multiple diffrent translations if they have multiple "watch-servers"...
The trick is that Agil was reading the news article which exaggerated everything to extreme - yes, news said it was 50 hit combo, but it was nonsense Agil laughed about and Kirito said isn't true. Same as news said about army squad being annihilated, while only 3 of them actually died.
I will say that the duel wielding skill is a little confusing on why you need it to wield two swords. We have seen Kirito hold two swords when he visited Liz’s shop, when he held his sword and the one she made(unless he had the skill around that time, but Liz wasn’t surprised so idk). So maybe the game just makes it so you can’t actively be swinging two swords?
Sword Skills are animation based, with light effects and everything. To trigger a set of motions for two swords simultaneously - you need the dual wielding skill. But to use two swords in both hands - not. It's just impractical, as in Elden Ring you can do it, but have to sacrifice some armor for weight limit - same here, Kirito can only use a very light armor. I explained in more details in separate comment to the video
Fun fact : every 25 floor player will face giant boss which guarantee death
I just want a anime character who uses both a sword and shield and uses them properly, we’ve seen characters use only a shield and others only using a sword but not both
So sad that the anime gets so much hate, ofc it has a bad adaptation but even with that it still is a strong anime
Finally 😈
Also, youre probably thinking about the executioner sword from Naruto
You could use 2 Swords anyway, but there are Skills designed around DW that you can only use when you got the DW-Skill and some stat boni too.
In the Books it is stated, that a normal hit with a weapon, does nearly nothing and therefore you need to use skills to do damage, to use skills you need to do a specific pose or starting motion, after using a skill you get locked for a short amount of time, where you can't move.
Therefore a second sword is pretty useless, for more offence you could go to a speedy sword like the rapier in the mainhand and nothing in the offhand, for more defence you go sword+shield.
It's slightly more complicated - the problem of a simple hit isn't that it's not a sword skill, but that the speed at which you hit is usually way lower. If one trains a lot - can do the similar damage to the swordskill without using it, but very few can actually achieve this even after years of practice
Thanks for this🖐️🇧🇩🇧🇩
Go go go!!
I hope you watch next is the anime called magi the labyrinth of magic its so good
I keep expecting the dialogue from SAO abridged. I really have forgotten the original dialogue from the anime.
I Love SAO
You can use 2 sword, but it will not give u skills and stats. So its pointless use it without the extra skill, thats why is rare
best fcking episode of the entery anime
I need the nex ep so soon plisssssss
Next two wielding vs holly sword
The person who does the final blow is supposed to get a rare item drop... So the real question is, what drop did he get from this fight?
Would have been cool if Kirito got that sword
⚔️ lez goooo⚔️
Please post Sword art online once a day here on youtube please!!!❤❤❤
Finally!!!!
HE'S HERE my boy HEATHCLIFF A.K.A ...................

Indeed
The next episode ties in with a future revelation that'll shock you to no end. Heathcliff is a character to watch carefully now that he is introduced, watch the fight next episode clearly Neel, the fight is the only thing that will show you where the main badguy is in the coming episodes.
