Sword Art Online/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Every fight Kirito solos you know its awesome! Hands down its the best thing you can see written in good action.

  • To be a little more specific (and spoilery):
    • Kirito's first and greatest I Am Not Left-Handed moment: revealing his Dual Blade skill to (almost) single-handedly defeat Boss #74.
    • Kirito calmly revealing his level to a group of mid-level bandits, and explaining that, even attacking together, they can't overcome his Healing Factor. He then sends every one of them to prison with a teleportation crystal.
    • At this point, the editor realized that the next three or four entries were all going to be about Kirito, and decided to give up.

What? Nothing to be said about Kayaba Akihiko?

  • To this troper, his one biggest CMOA was at the end of Arc 2 of ALO. Remember, Kayaba Akihiko? The dude that is already explicitly stated to have died by overloading his own brains with a super powerful electromagnetic brain scan at the same time as the fall of Aincrad?
    • Kirito, for all his skills and illegal stats was a player was fighting and losing against Nobuo/Oberon, the administor of ALO and resident jackass. So, Kirito was near dead and about to get stabbed an Excalibur wielding nut job with his pain limiters turned off. Then Kayaba Akihiko's ghost of all people things pulls a Big Damn Heroes moment by giving Kirito admin powers. Kirito then summons Excalibur straight from resident Jerkass's hands.

Guess what he does with it. Yesh he pulled a Jack Rakan move straight from Negima.
