There wasn’t any story development as I
thought, but instead, we had an entire episode about Sinon! The name of the
episode fits her perfectly. Sinon is my favorite character of the series, so an
entire episode dedicated to her makes it worth to me.
First scene of the episode shows how Sinon
got her sniper rifle, an Ultima Ratio Hecate II by beating a monster. Then after the Opening, we see
her and her group moments before she shots an enemy on the
first episode. Then, we find out that one of the enemies is a pro player named
Behemoth who uses a Minigun. Being Sinon the last member of her party, she goes
to the top of a building to jump with her Hecate and kill Behemoth while she
was falling. That was EPIC. After this victory, we can see her coming back to
the real world saying that she has to be stronger. And finally on the last
minutes of the episode, we can see Silica, Leafa and Lizbeth fighting a monster
in ALO while Kirito, Yui and Asuna are just chilling there. At the end of the
episode, Kirito is about to say to Asuna that he is going to enter a new game.

Basically, the episode was about
introducing Sinon’s character by showing her ninja-dodging-sniper skills and
amazing she is, she shoots someone in the head while falling from a building!
Since I’ve already read the light novel, I just love very side of her character
and watching her animated is just exciting for me.
One thing I noticed different from the
light novel is that in the anime, Kirito tells Asuna that he is going to
transfer to another game in ALO while in the light novel he tells her at the
park they were meeting on 1st episode.

Now we got to see the Opening without all
the credits scrolling, I just noticed another detail that is featured on the
light novel. The detail is the star mark the Death Gun has, something that will
be important on the story.

Going back to Sinon, -I know I’m just being
a fanboy, but 2nd episode is about Sinon anyways…- the way she
reacts towards Behemoth being a pro player, when she grabs Dyno telling him to
be brave at least in the game and when she says she has to be stronger while
she is pulling a trigger in the air are just hints about her back story. As we
can see on the Opening and the Ending, they both feauture Sinon when she was
younger.

Now that Sinon’s character is fully
introduced and Kirito is about to tell he’s moving to GGO, I hope next episode
we will get more story development. I can't wait to see Kirito entering Gun Gale Online.
