Klein's Life Counseling
In this episode, instead of asking for advice, the guest, Mr.H, raised the question of how would the show continue, since SAO had been cleared, thus there would be new content, and the program structure would have to be changed. Mr.H then answered the question himself by saying that, according to the opinion from the show's sponsor, Argus, there would be a series renewal in the next episode.
