This really shows how good he is without help and how useless Liz's advice is.
I think it's not that he's good manipulator. The question is, did Asuna want the police, and later Kirito, to find out that some fat schoolboy raped her? I think in that scene, Asuna made sure that no one found out about. In the situation with Oberon, she also hid everything. As the game progresses, it can be seen that Inoda makes a lot of mistakes and sometimes says something completely inappropriate, and Asuna would have gotten rid of him long ago, but we know Asuna is kind, Asuna has developed a motherly instinct, and do not forget that Inoda is essentially blackmailing Asuna by disclosing information about Lust Night.

But at the moment it doesn't matter anymore. I think Asuna has long forgotten about that situation and is quite happy with everything. And funnily enough, it became very noticeable that Inoda stopped being some kind of genius manipulator.

If you look at the scene it is obvious Asuna just didn't want Inoda to ruin his life so she thought of the excuse of Kirito finding out to stop him. Even Inoda realized this and was amused. If Asuna remembers Oberon then she would not tell Kirito so he won't worry. My headcanon right now is Asuna's father blocked those memories so she can live a happy life. Inoda always uses her weakness of caring about others more than herself to manipulate her.

Inoda does make a lot of mistakes but you have to admit he is a great manipulator when he works alone. Remember he planned in Part 1 to have the thugs attack Asuna so he can save her and make her into his debt. His biggest mistake was the Lustful Night but that only happened because he found out Asuna was going to leave with Kirito soon to America. So it was a act of desperation and if this was the standard NTR Asuna would have fallen to his dick that night. It just sucks in Part 2 Administrator and Liz is helping him to make all successes in Part 2 seem maybe because of them.

What are the chances that the update will be uploaded on November 30 or December 1?
Dev's latest post mentioned that he probably won't be able to finish and release by the end of month (Sat 30th Nov) so hopefully we can get a new update on Sun 1st Dec or maybe Mon 2nd Dec (JP time tho)

If there's one thing I'm already aware of, it's that this new update will just be a kind of filler, apparently it won't have anything relevant to Asuna (which is funny, because at the end of the last update Fujino had said that they should start things in the real world, but the update arrives and he took Asuna out of the city)

Yeah, while I don't have the irrational hate a lot of people seem to have for him, I actively dislike Rito, but I can understand the whys, his series IS a comedy parody first and foremost, so yeah. And well, the great majority of TLR doujins are usually NTR for that reason, really XD (It just doesn't have as many games in general) Also, ironically, Canon Rito actually IS titanically downgraded still in NTR settings, they make him have a small dick and no stamina as it's the Standard Cucked MC package, but Rito canonically: Has a massive 'beast' down there, can make girls easily orgasm with just his hands and mouth while half-asleep at practically no effort from how good he's with them, and has enough stamina to outrun and survive impacts from dangerous strong aliens. The guy is a SIMP and a loser, but his creator certainly put him way above the average anyway just because he could XD
A To Love-ru game about Rito's alter-ego would be peak.

It depends on the genre of the anime. If the characters are adults then acting like that is just weird. But if the anime character is a teenager then of course the tv censors don't want them to seen having sex. Most teenagers are seen as dumb and indecisive because they are young and inexperienced. That is true in most medium not just anime.

Interesting fact about that SAO moment you mentioned. Asuna and Kirito did have VR sex that time so canon Kirito is not impotent and a virgin even at the beginning of SAO if you count VR sex.


This is based on canon SAO relationship. Kirito and Asuna have always been the perfect couple. Neither of them was ever interested in anyone else. This is actually one thing I don't like about the series. The author clearly wants the couple to stay together but he keeps adding girls that try to get into Kirito's pants. He never wants to and the girls are just there to give him a "harem" he will never uses. It is like the author is trying to have a harem and one true love romance at the same time which is annoying.
Kirito is not very assertive and does not give his female friends the boundaries of the rules, he is too nice to everyone. Despite the girls knowing that Kirito and Asuna are a couple in love, they will always be together. When it comes to harem, you know the creators do it because it is marketing, it is just a pseudo-harem, because the girls do not pick up and steal Asuna's boyfriend like other harem anime. In 2024, LN Sword Art Online Light Novel Volume 28 (Unital Ring VII) was released

By the way, I don't understand at all why in anime the main character is made impotent and a virgin. And of course the most beautiful girl will always fall in love with such a guy and they will have the most platonic relationship. Although the heroine will constantly hint at sex. Although I watched SAO a long time ago, I remember the moment in the first season where Asuna thought that Kirito wanted to sleep with her and began to undress, and he behaved like a standard main character. Where did this trend come from?:unsure: Does anyone like to associate themselves with such a character.
Do you think all teenagers only have sex? For example, one couple decided that they wouldn't have sex until they finished school, found a job, and got married in church. Asuna and Krito at the end of Aincrad, Kirito is 16 and Asuna is 17. Kirito in the Phantom Bullet Arc, Alicization Arc is 17, and in Unital Ring he will be 18. Asuna in the Phantom Bullet Arc, Alicization Arc is 18, and in Unital Ring he will be 19. That's why Kirito and Asuna haven't had sex in the real world yet, because they don't live together, not to mention that Asuna has strict parents, Asuna's mother wants her to find a better job and finish a better school and get into a better university. I was just reading LN volume 23 of UR, Asuna said that when she's 19, she'll move into Kirito's house. UR takes place on September 27, 2026 and Asuna's birthday is on September 30.
The SAO anime is for a +13 PG audience, the same LN is for an age category of +13 PG.
This can't show sex in anime and it can't be written in LN because it would have to be for adults.

there will be more bugs than scenes :LOL:
Sadly not an unreal possibility because of how things currently are with Fujino and the game XP

So does part 1 gallery only include kirito pov of lustful night? Cause I can't find asuna pov of it
Yes, Part 1 doesn't have Asuna's PoV at all, that's early in Part 2 (Plus some extras later).

A To Love-ru game about Rito's alter-ego would be peak.
It doesn't even need to be that deep, if you stuck literally any normal hormonal teenager into Rito's head late in the series be it through some Isekai BS or because of one of Lala's inventions you would easily have the setting for a giant harem fuck-fest game with barely no OOC on the girls' part or need to force retardation on everyone like most NTR games/doujins need to, is just such a "simple" concept that nobody really would ever bother to make it :p For one of the series that popularized the modern harem genre, TLR has a massive lack of actual Harem games/doujins, hell, even threesome ones are rare XP
