I personally believe that the choice to include the honorifics or not is part of the translation, as the honorifics are a subtle way to indicate the relationship between the characters. If the honorifics are indicated indirectly, like Lady Asuna, then it's still maintaining the subtle part of the context. However, I doubt that they account for the kun in Kirito-kun in any way, so I treat that part as omitted context. Kirito-kun sounds like a warmer relationship than just Kirito. Only Lisbeth and the males are that rude XD
