The King of the Giants - Sword Art Online 2 Episode 16 Reaction
Comments
I'm glad to finally see SAO2 reactions back! So, a couple of points. First, I would love to see reactions too the Ordinal Scale movie, so if you want to do reactions to other anime movies, then that sounds like a great idea. Second, Yui is still around because Kirito saved her program to a local server, and given that she's a nearly omnipotent AI, she can now keep her data safe pretty much wherever. It would be extremely difficult too actually delete her existence at this point. Next, the fight with the bulls is particularly cool because, as they mentioned in passing, the gold one is highly resistant too physical attacks, while the black one is highly resistant to magic. Thus, when Asuna (who has the most magic specialization out of bunch) moved up too finish off the gold bull, the magic resistant one sensed that the mage had moved into the front lines, triggering its attempt to get up to engage, only to get wrecked by all of the others' physical attacks. Also, if you're familiar with Norse Mythology, you'll get quite a laugh out of this, since you'll pick up on what story this is based on (and thus what the twist will be). Lastly, as for going into a full VRMMO world, I think it might be fun, but not if it's something that you'll get trapped in. But, that's part of the charm of SAO, in that we get a wide range of views on the use of VR technology and how different people interact with it. I'd definitely recommend taking a look at Accel World after you're done with SAO. It's written by the same author and, while it hasn't been officially stated yet, seems to take place in the same world as SAO only several decades in the future.
Ordinal Scale is absolutely canon to the anime, as it gets referenced repeatedly in Alicization (Season 3). I don't think there's any conflict with light novel material either, so even though it was an anime original project, it's still canon compatible with the original source material too.
About your movie comment, the movie for Sword Art Online Ordinal Scale is actually Canon to the story which sets up in some way season 3 (I won't explain since this is spoiler teritory) but seeing a reaction video in some way would be great! ~ You could even do a full movie reaction without the movie on the screen and if we want to follow along with you, we could watch the movie in sync with you!
