He was afraid of revealing information that he shouldn't know, and that led to their downfall. Last time he spoke up in episode 2 (to save that party leader), he ended up making enemies out of everyone. Not everyone makes the best decision, otherwise he wouldn't have joined the guild in the first place.
Also, this adaption is kinda bad thus far.
I really, really, hate how they left out scenes and reorganized stuff. Episode 3 doesn't even begin properly. Not to mention they left out two extremely key scenes regarding Kirito's and Sachi's characterization.

The novel wasn't actually any different in regards to the trap.
Edit: The next episode is probably going to suck just as much, if not worse.
They were overconfident because of Kirito's lying. One of those major lies didn't even appear in the adaptation.
I also really hate how they didn't show Kirito's total breakdown after the fact that he realized that the item can only be used within ten seconds of the death. It's that point where the scary reality of Sachi's death hits him fucking hard, and it's completely absent from the anime because it skips ahead to him coming out and talking to Klein.
Also, Removing Sachi's song was just insult to injury. Even more so because Hayami's one of my favorite seiyuus.

It wasn't any different, but a combination of not having the narration, the removal of some of Kirito's lies, people seemingly teleporting around the scene, and some awkward fight animations made it a lot harder to swallow in the anime.
But they included

Whether it was intended or not, I was laughing through most of the episode. Kirito is an idiot, Klein will hopefully

Honestly how does it help anyone to
Come on Kirito, that's scrub nonsense.

die in in the coming episodes

hide your level?
It was actually sung in the novel. I have no idea why they changed it to humming the tune. Would have made a much better ending song for this episode than the actual ending.
Maybe there's a one christmas song a year limit in Hayami's contract and she already used that up for Bakuman?

The show won't get any better until they go through the "harem". The adaption is horrible since they insist on keeping a 1:1 ratio of chapters to episode.
You can't. Some MMO's allow you to block others from checking out your inventory but I haven't played one where it blocks someone from seeing what level you are.
Haha! That show can bring the feelings.
Maybe they realised her singing it would make the scene unintentional hilarious. At least humming it gave the scene a sombre mood.

Given the setting, it's actually kind of a cool concept, and makes world PvP a lot more interesting. Or would if not for the whole "You die in the game, you die in real life" aspect... =p
I don't think the song would have sounded as cheery as it is there. =P
Obligatory Bakuman link, considering it's the same Seiyuu.

personally, I would only put Jinrui in the same league as Tsuritama and Ghost moe!

What if you hate romance, but love animals?
Power level! You're telling me you flaunt your love for anime and yuri wherever you go?
The cursed words.

My yuri power is strong enough for it to actually be visible. You see a trail of yellow roses behind me wherever I go. I try to contain it, but its always a losing battle.

But Darkside said it was good. You're right about IS. IS has CHARLES shower scene.
This looks cute and wacky. I like cute and wacky shows.
Regardless of what it means its kind of unsettling.
Best box.
I really want to see Shigofumi. I forgot about it but the premise sounds intriguing as hell.
Adding it to the list ;_;
Everything about this show scares me. I'm not sure if I want to watch it.

Liberta is definitely the best one. I enjoyed finally have his backstory which was well done and much of the episode really emotional. He is really great and

I love the game they do when they pull out their card, the lines they say are always so serious yet funny.

if he can unlock that power somehow and use it, I imagine he will truly be final winner, power of word is awesome

It's funny because they made an anti-virus out of her!

Why do you do this to me, AnimeGAF? ;_;
Although I did find this part kinda interesting:

Japanese and Japanese-America race distinction and some previous history with the unfair way people treated him in the past. Since he was American, second gen, they ought to have considered him American, I think. Though I guess growing up in such an environment would leave him with such instilled feelings against anything Japanese even if its his tsf. Well at least he's progressing towards acceptance.

I disagree with a lot of the nitpicking ya'll are doing, but this I definitely agree with. If she started actually singing Rudolph, it would have totally ruined it.
They should have just gone straight to the credits without cutting away, with her humming as the bgm.

What color is the sky in your world?
Why? There's not much to explain, there's no forced dorama, just Kirito hanging out with a loli and her pokemon. All the side stuff is the best part about SAO unless you actually care about Stu and Sue fucking each other's brains out.
Okay my little Hosada weekend is over so the goddess Minako makes her return!
Has she been in anything lately? I don't think I've heard her in any shows unless they came out in the 90s.
While they're more small roles now I still hear some like Toru Furuya(Mamoru/Tuxedo Mask) most recently narrating Saint Seiya Omega, Emi Shinohara(Makoto/Sailor Jupiter) does the voice of Reika's(Cure Beauty) mother in Smile Precure! and Kotono Mitsuishi(Usagi/Sailor Moon) was the first guest seiyuu for Eucliwood in the first episode of KoreZombie?
Ah, Ok. Yeah I guess you could just wander through their encyclopedia section and see what you find. If you like a OVA and see what else the director or character designer has done things might snowball from there too. I've done stuff like that. Okay.
I really liked Juri in Utena as well. I don't remember exactly what episode in happens in so I don't want to say anything that will spoil something for you but that gif people post of Juri in the rain, I don't think I'll ever forget that scene.
Haha, right! If all else fails we can use the old "for science".
It certainly made it come across that way. Talking about how to properly depressurize the can so it didn't just explode in your face and the fact that early openers were too square and sharp so you might cut your lip, so they had to round them off like you see today.
Okay, I'm bumping this one way up my list and seeing if I can watch it soon. Then I can read the spoilers you and Icarus are talking about.
I thought Symphogear was okay but the art and animation quality was all over the place. That scene's quality is so poorly obvious. I saw quite a few people who didn't seem to normally care about animation even commenting on it. Hopefully it was fixed for the Bluray. Apparently there was a ton of fixes/changes.
That one girls English is really bad too. I don't want say the seiyuu's name as it might be a spoiler but it was really hard to tell what she was saying half the time.

Do the side stories involve Stu being MMO Hei?
He probably didn't. Beata as fuck.
They never fucked because he doesn't know how to turn the Ethical Fucking option on yet.

Neat. I don't mind the emoness too much since the situation is pretty fucked, but I need asskicking to balance things out.

Recognizing and linking voices is a fun side-hobby while watching anime.
Remember that if you're not feeling it at first, give it time.

This just keeps getting better, so much so I'm glad I stuck with it. Even the CG mecha looked like they were animated better and with greater care (even if nothing else did.) Top Gun has some self-loathing to work out too. :lol Maybe the quality will keep going up until the end.

I hope this sexy HUD action becomes a staple.
