Yes, they will be perfectly fine. I simply over-reacted like an idiot. If Alicization ends in the ways I have been told, trust me, their as close as you can get. Even after their memories are erased of the 200 years in Underworld. The fact that Asuna decided to stay with Kirito for 200 years instead of choosing to leave like everybody else makes it obvious that she still loves him. Even though those 200 years basically never happened since they don't remember them. Anyway, I was just an idiot who read too far into absolutely nothing. Kirito is still madly in love with Asuna. There are multiple times where he shows signs of wanting to go back to the real world as soon as possible. (Of course, he also wants to help the problems in Underworld as well.) He even states that there were multiple nights where he would be unable to sleep due to missing her. (He states this while growing the flowers for his instructor...what a coincidence.) Honestly, I regret posting that question, as it is apparent that he feels no romantic love for anyone other than Asuna. Sometimes it's just nice to hear what the community thinks of it I guess... Also, if the author is a diehard fan of the pairing, there is absolutely no chance he would ever split them apart/make the other fall in love with somebody else.
