Fuka truly is the best friend, willing to tidy up bones as contingency.
Honestly, I wouldn’t actually think about intercepting projectiles myself if I was in the game.
*Also God damn that OP.*
Riki Matsuura (main fire force animator) showing up to direct an OP for SAO of all things was not on my bingo list
And so the battle begins.
That’s a lot of rail lines.
Hmm… That’s going to make for an interesting battle area.
That’s interesting. I suppose they should make their way towards that?
Ah. I just checked and the first Light Novel precedes Fortnite and PUBG by 2 years, so this was probably written after shrinking maps became standard in Battle Royale games as opposed to the first season which was written before the genre really became established. These days it’s pretty standard to ensure games don’t devolve into sniping matches from across the map.
This is going to be interesting.
And so we’re back to where the first episode started.
Yup, Fuka’s doing indirect fire again.
That’s a lot of enemies.
Though they seem to all be randos so they aren’t going to hang around long.
You’d think they’d realise that they aren’t being affected by those bullets a few rounds in.
Finally someone’s realised that.
Yes, that would be the good option, as long as they don’t try to “return to sender” the grenade.
Huh. Using the lightsaber to open up firing ports. Yup, most armoured vehicles have those built in as standard so the crew can fire out while remaining generally safe from return fire.
Why only a single shot grenade launcher? At that point just strap an M-203 on to a rifle.
And meanwhile Fuka’s now going to do counter-battery fire.
Yup, that’s the whole point of the shrinking safe zone. Can’t just camp in a safe spot for the whole game, got to actually move.
WAS THAT FUCKING [SYLVESTER STALONE](https://imgur.com/33PAKei) AND [CHUCK NORRIS](https://imgur.com/m0m8piG) IN THE EXTRAS?!?
Is it just me, or is everyone acting like they’ve never heard of a battle royal game with the shrinking field? Wonder if the water is an instant death, slow HP drain, or just dangerous cause you have to swim and your a sitting duck.
No idea why LLENN felt bad, over 30 people ganged up on them. You do what you gotta do. Also, so glad we got some satisfying grenade launcher sounds already.
I missed LLENN being a speed demon, cant wait for her to go berserk mode.
the bunny ear flaps at 0:01 is weirdly hypnotic, but the seizure-inducing flashes in the OP snapped me right out
LPFM took out 30 people 2 minutes into a Battle Royale (after the scan) is absolutely goated, then Fuka instantly shutting down the other grenade launcher and his lackeys making the total kill count 35
I get that there’s no rule against working together, but why are so many teams onboard with the idea and plan? Where are the backstabbers?
ngl, I didn’t expect that turtle strategy using light saber.
a brutal one side massacre indeed
It’s nice to see the team already taking this new Squad Jam seriously. And by seriously I mean, Pito already looking to kill a bunch of people and Fuka just tossing a rock into the sea just for fun.
ReoNA is now on OP duties instead of just insert songs, featuring Karen and Elsa with their characters’ weapons, all the GGO players fighting to be champions, and totally necessary shots of LLENN And Pito in their underwear.
Ah, so this is working on Battle Royale rules. So not only do they have to worry about the other teams, but GGO Tottori is going to slowly be consumed by the sea so they can’t just sit, relax, and strategize but they have to actively move before they get drowned to death, even if it means encountering an enemy team. And what is up with that Unknown monument.
I feel like Fuka and Pito are competing for who is more raring to kill people and tease LLENN. Though LLENN is already getting ticked off, so don’t count her out for being the most bloodthirsty member of the group.
Who is this glasses guy and why is he organizing these other teams to take out the big teams like LPFM?
Various teams forming an alliance and encroaching on LPFM? Perfect excuse for the bright pink munchkin LLENN to distract them by running for dear life in a train yard and using her superspeed and agility to avoid getting killed in a hail of bullets all the while her team makes it even less fun. But if anyone can pull it off, it’s LLENN-chan.
You thought you had LPFM cornered, but instead they were lulling you into a trap! From a casual welcome by Pito to getting sniped by clever holes she made in the their hiding spot using her Photon Sword. All the while Fuka’s just chilling like Fuka does.
Brave of that one guy to stand his ground and throw a grenade…even if he just blew himself up. Also good strategy to fire a grenade, but they didn’t count on Fuka being there to spot it AND Pito being able to shoot it down with a shotgun. And then Fuka blows everybody else up.
It’s nice to think they’d found a good spot to wait out the rest of the Squad Jam…but they don’t have that luxury.
Next week: Shirley vs Clarence?
Falling for the lightsaber trick twice, shame on them
[removed]
My gawd, that was a massacre on an epic scale, from a train car, no less!
Didn’t realize how much I missed this show. It’s such a fun watch every week already. 8/10 on the episode. Not much happened except….a decimation of the opponents….and cameos by sly and chuck!
Was that Sylvester Stallone!?!? LOL
I really liked the train yard sequence showing LLEN’s speed and agility skills.

After becoming Elza Kanzaki’s singing voice and doing the OP and ED for Alicization, [it’s good to hear ReoNa doing another SAO opening <3](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkZ9gIvtdfs)
[A shrinking map? We really are a battle royale now!](https://i.imgur.com/r4UPQS3.jpeg) I love their reactions though because I think the original LN came out before this became common in battle royale games so it kinda makes sense [why they would be so surprised.](https://i.imgur.com/09IjosQ.jpeg)
[Aaaaand we’re finally back at the start of last week’s episode!](https://i.imgur.com/hnANk4u.jpeg) Poor LLENN! Our girl was literally just used as bait while the rest of the group got in position for their next move. [LLENN showing a lot of awesome moves though during that scene!](https://i.imgur.com/1a60g1n.jpeg)
I love how they just [turtled inside that rail car and already slaughtered most of the players teaming up to take them down.](https://i.imgur.com/RGUP5i7.jpeg) That photon sword [really ended up saving their asses](https://i.imgur.com/RnrDM5f.jpeg) by making makeshift portholes for them to fire from without exposing themselves.
[Don’t feel bad for them LLENN!](https://i.imgur.com/lg3gjJE.jpeg) They’re the ones teaming up to take you guys down. If anything it should be cathartic to see [these bozos get obliterated!](https://i.imgur.com/NiPsGkI.jpeg)
Ah so they have the shrinking map mechanic this time. And having the stronger teams start at the edge of the map is actually a good way to even things out.
Lol Llenn has to play decoy again. Also how were they aiming through the holes of that container ?
Wanna see more of Fuka and Pito interactions. Feel like they’re both the same flavor of crazy and would get along
No way LLENN gets out of that first part that lightly, they got 30 people who either don’t know how to shoot in front of the moving target or have absolutely abysmal luck.
Man… Fuka & Pito are such a hilarious chaotic duo, I really love their dynamic!
I must say that when they talked about their location on the map and where the other teams were it reminded me of World Trigger. Oh, so [the current map](https://i.imgur.com/bYUBjAz.png) will be shrinking [as it happens on a battle royale.](https://imgur.com/a/uaC96Cs) with the center area being labeled “UNKNOWN” at the moment.
I love [LLENN’s reaction](https://imgur.com/a/6S3Jja5) when she heard from M that she needs to play the role of bait. [Her expressions](https://i.imgur.com/M4k0UXy.png) [are just](https://imgur.com/a/jj6hBVX) [so funny.](https://i.imgur.com/QmaWkxb.png)
I love how[ Fukaziroh was bored to death while LLENN, M, and Pito were shooting everyone through those holes.](https://i.imgur.com/WYkcIL2.png) Luckily, after that grenade attack, [she finally had](https://i.imgur.com/vxutQyn.png) [something to do.](https://i.imgur.com/3TSirae.png)
Although they will leave that location, I wonder if [a wagon like the one they are in](https://i.imgur.com/NMGw1Bo.png) would float thanks to the water.
[Here is today’s transition image.](https://i.imgur.com/lHKr8v7.png)
Damn the other teams have shit aim, no wonder they teamed to try and beat the stronger teams
Episode 2 in and this spinoff is already so much fun to watch, even without the high stakes like we have last season.
Its more like watching a Twitch stream of Vtubers playing a battle royale FPS. This time Squad Jam even has a shrinking map like in PUBG.
Completely forgotten that Pito also has a Jedi Lightsaber like Kirito, though she only uses it for occasions like when she needs to make sniping holes in walls or sneak up on the enemy.
Trivia: If I’m not mistaken, the bearded guy who provided intel for the other teams and suggested they team up to fight LPFM is voiced by the author Sigsawa Keiichi. Who better to troll our heroes than the author himself?
This anime is very entertaining to watch, I would even like to play something similar haha
