Sword Art Trivia[]
Yui stated that the Demonic Sword Gram is a super-rare, unique weapon that can only be rivaled by the Excalibur. However, the location of the Excalibur has yet to be found.
Playback Corner[]
In this corner, Leafa commented on several scenes that appeared in eighth volume of the BD/DVD (Episodes 20-22) together with this week's specials guests, Sakuya and Alicia Rue.
They commented on:
The scene during which Kirito defeated General Eugene (Episode 20).
The scene during which Sakuya and Alicia Rue were seducing Kirito (Episode 20).
The scene during which Kirito was fighting against the Guardian Knights. (Episode 22)
Sword Art Trivia[]
Yui stated that there are dungeon to the north, south, east and west of Alne and that each of their deepest areas are connected to Jötunheimr. Super strong evil-god-class monsters prowl Jötunheimr, and since light does not reach it, the flight ability of players cannot regenerate there. Thus, it is the game's field with the highest difficulty.
