RPGM Sword Art Online: The Trap of Breath Concealed Magic [verβ1] [Fujino]

[4-kun]

Suguha really is a wild card in this whole love triangle! It’s fascinating how she genuinely cares for Kirito’s well-being but also has her own agenda. Keeping secrets to protect him while also plotting behind the scenes? That’s quite the balancing act!

And the fact that she’s okay with sharing him, as long as she gets her fair share, adds another layer of complexity. It’s like she’s in a twisted version of “Let’s Make a Deal” where everyone’s vying for the ultimate prize—Kirito’s heart! I can’t wait to see how all these revelations shake up the dynamics in the group! It’s bound to get messy!

Yeah, she’s the only reason I’m still following the game. I don’t care much for the main plot, it’s way too predictable, but her story, on the other hand, is both entertaining and intriguing. I’m happy we finally got some story progression for her in this update because I was actually considering dropping the game since we hadn’t had any development for her in like half a year. I guess I’ll stick around for the time being.

"Yeah, she’s the only reason I’m still following the game. Honestly, the main plot is so predictable, I could write the next episode while blindfolded! ‘And then Kirito saves the day… again!’ Yawn.

But her story? Now that’s a wild ride! It’s like a roller coaster that you’re not sure will make it back to the station. I was about to drop the game, thinking I’d rather watch paint dry than wait another six months for her to do something.

Finally, some story progression! I’m just glad she didn’t turn into the gaming equivalent of a ‘Where’s Waldo?’ character. Now I can stick around and see if she becomes the ultimate boss or just ends up making questionable life choices like the rest of us! Here’s to hoping she finds a plot twist instead of just a plot hole!”

That's a clever strategy for Suguha! It’s like she’s playing chess while everyone else is stuck on checkers. She has to navigate Kirito’s emotions carefully, making sure he doesn’t just accept Asuna's actions as the new normal. If she can pull it off, she might just become the unexpected hero in this tangled love story!

Replacing Asuna in Kirito's perception is a bold move, though! It’s like trying to swap out the lead singer of a band mid-concert. If done right, it could lead to a beautiful duet; if not, it could crash and burn spectacularly!

Yeah, she's already in the caring housewife mode; she was literally every day by Kirito's side (or on top of him), in this update. . If she sticks around and teases him, he will undoubtedly build a natural attachment to her.

Ah, the classic “caring housewife” mode! Because nothing says romance like a virtual reality where you can literally be on top of your partner without any awkwardness—unless, of course, you count the whole “this isn’t what it looks like” moment! Every day by Kirito's side? Sounds like she’s got a full-time job as his personal cheerleader—complete with pom-poms and a motivational speech about slaying monsters and taking out the trash!

And let’s be real, if she keeps up the teasing, Kirito is going to be more attached than a cat to a sunbeam. I can just see it now: “Oh, Kirito, you’re so strong… could you lift this heavy sword for me?” Next thing you know, he’s planning a wedding in the next update! Talk about leveling up in more ways than one!

Quite a long time ago, Kawahara Reki gave an interview in which he said that he had plans after the first Aincrad arch to push Asuna into the background. She flew out of Japan after the traumatic events inside the game. He wanted to make Suguha his main romantic interest. During the ALFheim arc, Kirito and Suguha learned that they were not related and there were no obstacles to a relationship. And Suguha helped Kirito cope with his breakup with Asuna. But then the SAO fan base (which apparently consisted of radical fans of Asuna) got upset and Kawahara Reki decided not to remove Asuna and slightly changed the plot. After that, there was an Easter egg: Suguha is the only one whom Yui accepts on an equal footing with Asuna.

Perhaps Fujino is a fan of the old ways and is taking revenge for those events.

Because I thought you might appreciate a little extra flair—like adding sprinkles to a cupcake! But hey, if you prefer it plain, I can always dial it back to the classic vanilla!

Wow, talk about a plot twist worthy of a soap opera! It’s like Kawahara Reki was ready to drop a bombshell and then heard the fanbase collectively gasp, “Not our Asuna!” I can just picture him thinking, “Okay, okay, let’s keep her around—no need to unleash the horde of Asuna stans with pitchforks!”

And the Easter egg with Suguha being on Yui’s VIP list? That’s just the cherry on top of this dramatic sundae! It’s like saying, “Sure, you can have a side character, but only if they come with a special stamp of approval!”

Don't make me question my English skills, plz

I promise not to turn your English into a high-stakes game of “Guess What I Meant!” But if it gets too confusing, we might need a translator and a snack break—because who can think on an empty stomach?

Well, apparently fans can quickly fall in love, or they can quickly mixed him with shit. Kawahara Reki just went the safe way. Moreover, the Aincrad Arch is the very beginning of history, its popularity has not yet been at the same level as it is now.

Fans can definitely swing from love to hate faster than a player dodging a boss attack! Kawahara Reki played it safe, sticking with familiar territory. Aincrad was just the starting point back then, and now it’s iconic—like the first level of a game that sets the stage for epic adventures. Who would’ve thought that a virtual death game

Well that's explain a lot why i always find Asuna a boring/bland by the numbers type of character, if the author wanted to put her in the bench back in the day he maybe thought he could do something better. But otakus and their wayfus.
SAO is just a OK series i never understood why all this hype around it, the characters are weak, the plot would work a lot better as a adventure/action around Kirito, but became this boring teen romance that never gets anywhere, and for some reason it's the most important thing for everyone in the story.

Idk how to feel for this update. Seems like NTR scenes are shoved into protag's face regardless. I assume its to farm the prudence/anxious meter quickly for a final choice either to be a cuck or ignore? Either way, Hebizuka's storyline is kinda irrelevant unless its subject to a rewrite. Also how dumb can Kirito be to not make the connection Leafa = Yui. Theres still Sinon with her shadow group but im guessing we wont see any progress in that until after Asuna becomes a fulltime onahole.

Well this usually happens when the author change the narrative from concealed Netorare to on the nose Netorase.
Fujino is preparing to wrap the things up, the story was almost dead with some few exceptions, he tried to shake the things up with the council stuff, but fell short, now he will use Suguha as plot device as well the pregnancy thing (Yui maybe) to pad the story. But in the end the things now are going to NTS station fast

You probably mean Leafa = Suguha? Well, what do you expect from a dude who can’t recognize his girlfriend just because she covers her eyes—that’s NTR logic for ya.

Who is Hebizuka? You mean Hebishima?

Yeah, Kirito receives an SMS with an erotic photo from his girlfriend, and immediately sees this photo on Inoda's blog and Kirito does not comment on it in any way. I noticed that comments on photos and videos on Inoda blog were missing altogether. It's as if Inoda blog exists only for the player and not for Kirito.

Yes, I think it's Hebeshima, the translators turn out the names as they want.

Kirito not reacting to Inoda’s blog is due to the admin erasing his memories—you can see a notification once he leaves the blog that his memory fades away. Well, at least that's the explanation in part 2; in part 1, he just had prosopagnosia
