^Heh Christmas Eve! Actually like the cover this time. Though his hair really bothered me. At least he could have put it in a ponytail and then still could have called himself a girl during the game, which is still wrong. lol But still, it did not suit him. I think I liked his SAO 1st cut better, though he probably had to change it in ALO after that mess.

^ what bothers me is the light saber pose, which doesnt seem natural. Anyway, what matters most is the content of the OST disc, From my rips they have skipped 17 tracks (probably the shop musics) , and considering that that they will skip some on ost 2 too that will leave some tracks unreleased again =_=

Ep 21 summary (again this is only for half)
http://www.swordart-online.net/mothers/story/index.html
The big guild has learned the tricks to how to beat the floor boss, and while "The Sleeping Knights" are cornered, Kirito and Klein butt in. Kirito buys time and Asuna and Sleeping Knights go to change the boss of the 27th floor.
I hope they will use some of the new upbeats that they cut within seconds on previous episodes and not again swordland >_>

Here are the rips for ep 21
some comments:
- The guitar track is the same as last ep 20's bgm 1, but 12 seconds longer
- the instrumental part of Luminous sword starts at 2:29
- I must day I am amazed by the last bgm (ep 21 bgm 4), the feeling that's put into it is so much that almost makes me cry. Yuki hasnt composed a piano + strings slow track with so much love for a long time.
You will come to love it more by the next episodes :)
also this time I made.flac versions too, since I see they are popular :D
Enjoy!

I'm honestly really disappointed by the massive reuse of music. I thought hey would at least have a new song for the boss fight.

^ I kinda meant it for anime, but now I remember that the "the begging to the end" arrangement from ep 2 of FSN was also really touching.
@sora: That they dont use them doesnt mean they dont exist, there is at least 1 upbeat bgms that has been cut within seconds all times. its the one at ep 20 bgm 4 = ep 17 bgm 2 and now that I see it, its the same ep 16 ends with. Also, the indian track of ep 15 also hass an upbeat part to it, where it was also cut. Anyway, less new music might be sad but also means that we will get less unreleased tracks since ost 2 will be Calibur new musics + Mother Rosario new musics + unreleased tracks from GGO (because my rips say 54 and they release 37)

@george1234 I know. My comment was more about the obnoxious music direction. I mean, look at how many times swordland has been used. Kajiura did two new arrangements for it yet the original plays almost every time. It's just ridiculous.

what episode was that track from? Because it sounded new to me, but maybe I haven't listened to your rips closely enough

Wasn't the luminous sword instrumental used in the previous ep, ep 20 (during the fight with Asuna and Yuuki)? It's with flute right? (have not listened to the rips yet since I want to hear them in the show first. I will watch it soon)
I kind of wince too when old music is used. I think 'here should be a really cool new song, but instead they use Confront Battle or something" I mean, I know why they do it, since it's ALO again, but still. But we do know that the sound director has always done this for this anime unfortunately, since there are some really great songs.

@Liana_Ilia no its not the same. The one used in the previous 2 episodes is a new instrumental arrangement of the song, while this one is the old song with some of the vocals muted (kinda like karaoke) :)

Lisa's single is out and I dl it to listen to the english ver of crossing field. I can say I understand almost nothing, and the lyrics arent in booklet 
also LE came with a DVD with non-credit ED (both calibur and mother rosario ones), just like it happens with the FSN UBW singles, so it looks like it became an aniplex habit ....

LiSA's engrish is always beautiful xD I still prefer the jap. version, way more smooth and powerful.
The full version of No More Time Machine is quite enjoyable, standard anison while I'm in love with Shirushi. Heavenly vocals and beautiful melody, good single overall. Maybe I still prefer Rising Hope.
