Anyways in regards to the Liz CG, my initial knee-jerk reaction was that this is another one of Kirito's dream sequences. But seeing you all mention the tears in her eyes, it's probably happening IRL. I'm curious as to what happened, but I'm also kind of bummed out for this upcoming update. I wanna see more sex, but I feel like since we're not in FOG, the 4 Asuna CGs imply mini scenes. Overall it's going to be a really small/boring update. The only real hope is Fujino wants to delay it by another literal week probably to put more content in.
In regards to the argument that Fujino is going to spend this week translating everything, sometimes Fujino mentions translating the text, but other times Fujino just never mentions it. So who knows what exactly is happening in regards to more content or not.
