PATRON REWARDS: Episode 8 link

What's the soundtrack towards the last 30 seconds of the episode?

JonnyPhantom

Well worth a dollar

MagmarFire

You made that fight scene even better. This is a textbook example of using callbacks to improve a work to add more meaningful context, and it was surely a missed opportunity in the original. Keep on keeping on, guys!

Ah stellar work as always guys, im glad I have the opportunity to support such a great series that never fails to make me laugh so hard and to have so much more likeable characters than the original.

Joseph Zacaula

Man even on text that sounds like a good plot lol

Alex Stritar

Gotta say, do love Kirito's character in this. A snarky asshole who's survivors guilt and PTSD leads him to become a true hero. It's always fun how the abridged format can lead to such variations of the characters other than "more jokey and/or assholeish".

Fantastic!

Nah

Aaron W.

Absolutely amazing! Cannot wait till episode 9 is released!

and this is why i give you my money keep up the good work guys

Mark Waltham

Just re-watched one of the earlier episodes on YouTube, but accidentally had the subtitles on. Absolute genius. Adds a whole new level.

1:45-1:58 that was worth a dollar.

*clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap*

De'Sean Markley

That ending was beautiful. Absolutely, beautiful.

Shawn Smith

How can a parody be so much better than the original in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE!?!?!?!? This is made for comedic purposes and yet your character developments are 10 times deeper than anything the SAO anime ever did! If you guys ever decide to make a fully original work, let me know, because it's bound to be epic and I will support you all the way!

derek lebeau

bumped my pledge as well. Hopefully, when this hits youtube, they will get a lot more pledges, and really will quite their day jobs and just do this. Edit: so yamato did quit his day job... now to get hayabussa to do the same.

derek lebeau

I decided to bump my donation to $4 a month (doubled down) since you guys are putting out such high quality content. I know it's not much, but i guess if enough people boost/start giving... you guys might just be able to quit your day jobs... Edit: turns out yamato did quit his day job... now to get the hayabussa to be able to do the same.

Lucero

Impressive as always. Absolutely love it!!!

Kevin Torres

Loved it, saw it 3 times already and want to keep watching it. Amazing work, to quote Kirito "oh my god, I love you".

Victor Monjaras

Im just amazed with the episode. Started slowly but even then it was impressive. What's so great was that the last part of episode 9 was used for this episode but Im pretty sure you'll find a way to make episode 9 into an 8 minute episode unless you guys decide to actually merge the episodes together starting at this point and for that I don't mind at all. Anything to see more best qualities episodes like these being made and make up the time before the SAO movie and season 3 comes out. Thanks for the amazing performances and writing.

kyle meyer

Wooooooooo to the power of infinity! As always guys another amazing and hilarious episode. Such drama and humor hasnt been presented so well since shakespseare. All of my pennies are worth this

This. This is why you're getting so much support. You're even managing to make this humanity-hating Kirito's coming around to caring about people actually work: I've never been more invested in SAO than with you guys at the helm of this series.

Morry

Oh, this is great. You guys are really putting a lot of serious thought into this. I mean, giving Kirito and Asuna this kind of character developed is necessary because of what happens later on in the show... but I can't think of any other abridged series that managed to bring its characters this far.

my side are now hurting me bad and kinda hard to breath after this.

erdelf

freaking amazing what you did here.

Jaden

Awww that last part with tiff should be added. That would be golden. Wonderful work as always, cant wait till the next one. I can only imagine what kirito's reaction will be when asuna takes her clothes off.

Gage Landry

Pledge is getting bumped up by a six pack, this was great! Drink a beer on me, y'all earned it.

Raace

Wow that was really good. You guys did a great job. I am going to watch this like 8 more times.

holy crap he was duel wielding axes, DA FUCK animators.

Syy

SO GOOD. Best line of the episode was definitely the reuse of the "Hit it till it dies!" from Episode 2.

:D

Mitwo

According to them it is possible that it will arrive sooner or in other words in a faster pace because of improvement in their work. :)

Gaurav Patil

That was sort of a given. It built up on it.

Michael Tinnell

That was very good. Much better than the original!

Jacob Davis

That was so worth pledging to you guys. Please keep the episodes coming! This series is fantastic and this made my day so much better!

Charles N Rutledge

ATTENTION EVERYONE ASUNA IS JUST KIRITOS FALL GIRL AS STATED IN THE LIVE STREAM PLEASE KEEP IN MIND SACHI WILL BE KIRITOS XD

Gaurav Patil

I must say i was feeling a loss of touch for lack of new material. Did not know how this could compare. But damn you knocked it way out of the Galaxy. Time is more often than not the most important ingredient in anything amazing. Sooooo.. whens 9 coming?

Kenneth Misurella

Absolutely fantastic. You guys keep the comedy but at the same time give the characters growth. Even though​ it's an abridged series it feels like almost a completely new experience. Keep up the fantastic work guys!

Johnysc

I like how this series is better than the original (couldn't even go on after the Alfheim meeting). I'd be jealous if I were Kadokawa too. Sure it's parody proof what with it parodying so much of it? I guess the Star Wars random project was similar and that survived. If you have the time would you please load it up somewhere safe?

Johnysc

Well that was fast. Blocked in 3 hours by Kadokawa on the grounds of my location. Good job regardless! :)

Project DT88

SAO Abridged is one of, if not, thee best series I have seen on youtube. I am glad to be a supporter of it, even if All I can support is a dollar or two a month.

Orestes Mesquita Kunze Bastos

"HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME CARE ABOUT THEM!!!" Awesome job, also the dual wielding axe guy LOL. I'd think you'd make him say something like "Have you even tried dual wielding?" Kirito's character is a lot better than in the anime, keep up with the great job!!!! :D

Dusk Wolf

You know, you guys DID make me ship Liz and Kirito last episode. Now I'm back to Kirito x Asuna. Well, good job! Great episode as per usual, made me smile and giggle silently (it's hard to actually make me laugh out loud), and you've again made great use of Kirito's PTSD relating to Sachi and "The Crew". The characters are evolving nicely, the series is staying somewhat true to the original while being its own thing... I could go on and on, but I'll stop now.

Well done! That was way better than the anime!!!

Sora Tetra

"Sooo, you gonna put your sword away before dinner." "SHIT YOU CAN SEE THAT!" XD

Edward

GLORIOUS! I love it, glad to help even the slightest bit by being a patreon with you guys. You rock!

Yang Xiao Dork

Wow. this Series has really come a long way. Like it's still hella funny but its also sweet. and its damn amazing.

Oh god xD I laughed so hard my sides. Rip

derek lebeau

not bad at all. though i am a bit buzzed. not drunk. just buzzed. so that may have made it funnier. but i very much enjoyed it.

Chantal Beaulne

Actually kinda serious in tone. I like that you've improved Kirito's character so much over the original - he's actually very likable! Nice job, guys, thanks for your hard work.

Kmustlive

This is gonna be good

DG Servers

Yayyyyyyyy!!!! -First.
