The Legendary Hero (伝説の英雄, Densetsu no Eiyū?) is the eighteenth episode of the Sword Art Online Alicization anime adaptation. It aired on February 9, 2019.

Plot[]

Eugeo faced Bercouli Synthesis One, the leader of the Integrity Knights, and unleashed the full power of his Blue Rose Sword. A massive wave of ice engulfed them both, freezing them in place. Eugeo activated the sword's secondary effect, which slowly sapped the life force of everything within the ice. He gambled that he had more vitality than Bercouli, and tried to persuade him to break free from Administrator's control. He reminded him of the Blue Rose Sword, hoping to trigger his lost memories. But to his shock, he learned that it was Bercouli who had killed the dragon that guarded the sword in the cave. Before he could say anything else, Prime Senator Chudelkin appeared out of nowhere. He used his authority to turn Bercouli into stone and capture Eugeo. He then dragged him away to face Administrator's wrath.

Kirito and Alice were still climbing the wall that separated the human realm from the dark territory. They decided to take a break and rest for a while. Kirito seized the opportunity to tell Alice the truth about her past. He told her how she was once his childhood friend, how she had broken the Taboo Index, and how she had been taken away by an Integrity Knight. He explained that her memories had been altered by Administrator, and that she was not really an Integrity Knight. He asked her to trust him and join him in fighting against Administrator. Alice was skeptical and confused, but she listened to his story with curiosity and interest.

Adaptation Notes[]

Adapted from Volume 13, Chapter 10; Chapter 11, Part 1
  • The scene where Eugeo deduced the timetable of when Alice became an Integrity Knight from Bercouli's statements about her time as an apprentice knight was omitted.
  • When Bercouli explains the adventages of multi-hit Sword Skills over one-hit Sword Skills, the mention of him being unable to switch his fighting style from one-hit Sword Skills to multi-hit Sword Skills was omitted.
  • The scene where Bercouli reveals more about the frost dragon from his legend and the reason why Quinella had him kill it was omitted.
    • The frost dragon was one of four dragons who were the original guardians of the Human Empire, before the Integrity Knights. In her thirst for control, Quinella tried to make them submit to her but failed, causing her to order their deaths.
  • The mention of Bercouli only being able to talk down on Chudelkin because he no longer viewed him as his superior, because he lied to him, was omitted.
  • The scene of Kirito reminiscing about how Eugeo had become a close friend to him and wondering if he would be able to introduce him to Asuna and the gang was omitted.

Errors[]

  • Eugeo was supposed to use the composition skill «Meteor Break» to make Bercouli fall into the water.
