Been thinking about this topic for a while. Figure I'll chime in now.

@ZeHaffen Didn't know that about Japanese culture. Also, when Nishida is introduced to Asuna, it's Asuna who identifies herself as Kirito's wife. Never could figure that out.

Generally, I hold these things to be true about Asuna and Kazuto/Kirito. Asuna is neither insecure or jealous. Sinon made that comment about Excalibur right in front of Asuna and she seemed more amused than anything else. She has joked about Kirito and other girls. In short, she's not worried about him. She is FIERCELY protective of him. She jumped in front of Heathcliff's sword to save him and snuck onto a secret research platform to find him. Kirito, for his part, is totally devoted to his family. He felt guilty and apologized to the absent Asuna and Yuk before giving Selka(spelling?) a kiss on the forehead in the Underworld.

While I have only read thru volume 10 of Alicization, I'm pretty sure that once Reki Kawahara starts moving the story forward from the and of that arc, things will be fine for them.
