He doesn't have the ability to leave whenever he wants and, technically, less than a day has passed in the real world, so he could allow himself to take the slow route and work his way up to the exit. Doesn't mean that he stopped thinking about Asuna. When he heard Asuna's voice at the end of volume 14, his reaction was "It had a ring so nostalgic, it made me want to cry; a ring so dear I almost went mad.". Of course, then he ended up in a double coma and will pretty much be an empty husk until after Asuna comes to the world, as far as I understand.

Did I say that? No, I did not. I said it was almost like.

So Asuna manages to get into the world he is in; does that mean she can enter normally without being in a coma? I am very unaware about how Kirito is put into the UW after being put in a coma-like state. Wondering if it was the only way they could save him? Very fuzzy on this part.
