Marwile watches SAOII Part 4 "FemKirito"

If you missed it, I released a new story this week. My entry for this year's Sunset Shipping Contest and a sequel to "Five Bolts, One Sunset". Shameless self-plug over. Transition to shameless anime.

Kirito finally lands in GGO and say "Hello" to femKirito. Imagine Kirito as a trap with long hair. There's literally no reason for this other than fanservice. That's probably also the reason for all the Sinon buttshots. Even the german VA went so far to give femKirito a higher voice. Did Bryce Papenbrook do that too?

Kirito gets lost in the town and for the third time the first girl Kirito talks to is the next member of his harem, Sinon. He realizes she is only so helpful, because she thinks he is a she, and so he gives his best girl impression. I can only hope every VA that was forced to do this whipped himself after that.

The rest of the episode happens in a store, where Sinon tries to help Kirito choose his weapons. When they realize he doesn't have much money, Sinon shows him a gambling minigame, where you have to reach a cowboy NPC, who's trying to shoot at you. She also notes that barely anyone has won, because it gets really cheap towards the end. Now take a wild guess what happens next. He wins first try, even when the bot actually cheats. What am I supposed to say at this point?

With all this money Kirito chooses as weapon... of course, a sword. Alright, he gets style points for a beam sword. Still, he's planning to take a knife to a gun fight, literally. Then he also takes a gun and tries shooting for the first time. And he actually misses... the fact this surprised me...
There's probably also a few reasons why the Bullet Circle and Prediction line are bullshit, but I don't have enough experience with shooters to really say something about that.

They leave and realize that the registration for the Bullet of Bullets tournament both want to enter ends in ten minutes. They start running towards the several kilometers away tower, when Kirito quickly rents a buggy and starts driving. Even Sinon notices how weird it is that Kirito can drive it without problem on first try while most people can't at all. He also doesn't have a real explanation for that. I also want to point out again that Kirito got lost in the city before meeting Sinon. But she doesn't seem to care as the episode ends with her reclining in the buggy seat and smiling.

Episode four and Kirito finally started playing the game. How long is this arc again?
