[Jinsye]

Kirito

Custom one-handed sword and the Holy Sword Excaliber (ALO). Kagemitsu G4 Beam Sword and FN Five-Seven Handgun (GGO). Elucidator: Elucidator is Kirito's primary and endgame weapon in Sword Art Online. This sword is a demonic monster drop from a boss on the 50th Floor. Elucidator is a pitch black sword with trims of gray and was said to weigh a lot more than a regular sword. Provides a minor boost to strength and agility as well as armor. Eludicator Dark Repulser: Dark Repulser is a one-handed sword, created by Lisbeth for Kirito out of a Crystallite Ingot, which was obtained from a special quest. Whenever Kirito used the Dual Blades skill, he wields it alongside Elucidator. Provides minor boost in strength and agility according to its stats though a bit lower than that of Elucidator. Dark Repulser Other notable weapons. Unnamed Longsword: - A blue (black in the anime) one-handed longsword made by Lizbeth using a rare metal from Jotunheimr. It resembles Dark Repulser by how it looks. ALO only. Unnamed Longsword Holy Sword Excalibur: The most powerful sword in ALO, taken by Kirito after their party's completion of "The Holy Sword of the Ice Palace" quest. Excalibur is referred to as "The Sword which cuts through all steel and tree" by the NPC character Ur├░r. The author has stated that it provides a massive immense stat increase when equipped, but it is never used in the main story and thus its power remains unknown. ALO only. Holy Sword Excalibur Kagemitsu G4: A purple photon sword with a 1-meter long beam tube for a blade. It is extremely lethal in that it destroys bullets on impact, and presumably most metals as well. It is however stopped by extremely high durability metals like with Sterben's (Death Gun) Estoc made of starship metal. It is, however, currently in Sinon's possession. GGO only. Kagemitsu G4 FN Five-Seve: A semi-automatic handgun that acts as Kirito's secondary weapon in GGO. It is, as its name suggests, 5.7mm caliber and has 20 rounds per magazine. GGO only. FN Five-Seve Intelligence: High combat intelligence and is very adaptable, most notable for his development of multiple Outside System Skills. Masterful swordsman specializing in one-handed swords, both single or dual wielding. Additionally, he is very knowledgeable with computers and mathematics (e.g. he randomly computes the volume of the food he eats) but is otherwise, academically average. Can recite the chant of his Release Recollection mid-combat, showing the ability to multitask. Weaknesses: Normally composed and calculated when fighting, but fights with reckless abandon when he gets emotional. Notable Attacks/Techniques: Outside System Skills Outside System Skills (OuSS): As its name suggests, are skills that are the users own, unlike sword skills and magic that are provided for by the game engine. Mislead Arms Blast Spell Blast Distinguish Skill Connect (OuSS) Mislead: After studying his foe's movement and response patterns and learning functions (such as that of an enemy AI's), Kirito moves outside of his foe's habitual predictions to throw them off. (OuSS) Arms Blast: Destroys the opponent's weapon by hitting its weak point, showing knowledge of swords. (OuSS) Spell Blast: Negates a projectile spell by slashing through its hitbox (its very center) with a sword skill. The notable sword skill he used to demonstrate this is Deadly Sins , a 7-hit sword skill. The conception of this OuSS is from Kirito cutting bullets in GGO. (OuSS) Hypersense: The act of sensing hostile intention or killer intent, allowing the user to somehow react to attacks done outside of their field of vision. (OuSS) Distinguish: Allows the user to eliminate background noise to focus on unnatural or certain sounds around him. Its range is unknown but it is notable in that this skill, along with Hypersense, allowed Kirito to react to a sniper bullet from a blind spot. (OuSS) Skill Connect: A combo attack of combo attacks. It allows the user to alternate sword skills with his left and right arm. It is extremely difficult to do as it requires split-second precision to prevent a sword skill's aftercast delay from affecting him. Sword Skills Vorpal Strike Enhancer Sonic Leap Starburst Stream Sword Skills (SS): A series of movements that allows the user to attack much faster than they normally could, but the movements required to perform the Sword Skill are fixed and cannot be canceled by the user after they begin performing it. Contrary to their name,Sword Skills do not have to be used with a sword. (SS) Vorpal Strike: A sword skill Kirito most commonly uses and is what he considers the mark of the Black Swordsman. It is a high-speed thrusting attack done with one-hand swords and makes a jet engine-like noise when used, so it is not a very subtle attack. It has a notably longer aftercast delay. (SS) Sonic Leap: A sword skill that makes the user charge at the target at high speeds. It can be aimed at the sky as a jumping attack. (SS) Embracer: An unarmed sword skill that is strong enough to punch through a chest plate with the user's hand, fingers straightened. (SS) Meteor Break - A 7-hit sword skill that combines one-hand sword attacks with unarmed combat moves. (SS) Starburst Stream: A devastating 16-hit sword skill that is extremely fast and is powerful enough to push Heathcliff's shield (the same shield that can catch the enormous 75th floor boss, Skullreaper's attack) and force the Gleam Eyes to try and catch it to stop the skill. Original Sword Skills Original Sword Skills (OSS) - Sword skills made by or is inherited by the user from another. It is done by recording the creator's movements while the skill is being done. It is very difficult as it requires the user to do it perfectly as speeds above how they normally do, at speeds of that of sword skills. (OSS) Howling Octave - A combination sword skill that does 5 high-speed thrusts followed by 2 vertical slashes, for a total of 7-hits. Fire Element. The final move of this skill leaves the user in a rigid position (aftercast delay) that is similar to the initial motion of the OSS Savage Fulcrum with the other hand, therefore, if the player has two swords and can think about different things with the left and right side of the brain, it is possible to chain in the skill before the delay of Howling Octave is over, nullifying the aftercast delay. (OSS) Savage Fulcrum - A 3-hit sword skill that produces ice shards from the point of impact of the initial stab and the finishing upward slash. Ice Element. (OSS) Lightning Fall - A 1-hit dual-wield OSS that produces an area-of-effect lightning attack centered at the two swords stabbed at the ground. It is one of the few ranged attack sword skills. Lightning Element. Magic Magic - Allows the user to use race-unique and Alfheim standard magic. Kirito, as a Spriggan is naturally inclined towards illusion-based magic but he also uses standard elemental magic to imbue his swords with it. Alfheim Online (ALO) Kirito only. Spriggan Illusion Magic - Smokescree - An unnamed magic that produces an enormous black smoke cloud centered around Kirito. Kirito, a spriggan is naturally immune to it and therefore can see through the smoke. Spriggan Illusion Magic - Beast Form - An unnamed magic that sucks up all of Kirito's remaining mana to transform him into a Gleam Eyes-esque beast but is built for speed instead of the Gleam Eyes' bulky strength build. This only increases his attack range due to the beast form's arm length, but it does not increase his stats in any way as it is only an illusion.

Asuna

Sometimes the things that matter the most are right in front of you. ~ Asuna​ Powers and Stats Tier: High 8-C Name: Asuna Yuuki, Titania, Erika, "The Flash", "Berserker Healer" Origin: Sword Art Online Gender: Female Age: 18 in GGO (15 in SAO, 17 in ALO) Classification: Human, High School Student Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Skilled Swordswoman and Markswoma, Healing, Magic, Flight (Can fly for ten minutes before being forced to land pre-New Aincrad. Can fly for an unlimited amount of time post-New Aincrad), Limited wall running Attack Potency: Large Building level (Should be stronger than the characters that defeated the GeoCrawler, a beast with the height of a house and the length of multiple houses) Speed: Supersonic+, with Hypersonic+ reaction speed (Comparable to Kirito and Yuuki); At least Hypersonic+ attack speed (Can do multiple stabbing attacks faster than SAO Kirito can fully track) Lifting Strength: Peak Human Striking Strength: Large Building Class Durability: Large Building level Stamina: Superhuman Range: Extended melee range with sword, A few dozen meters with magic Standard Equipment: Lambent Light Crest of Yggdrasil - Lambent Light: A one-handed rapier forged by Asuna's friend Lisbeth, who said that it is of a quality that she can only forge once every 3 months. This became her primary and endgame weapon in Sword Art Online. - Crest of Yggdrasil: A 1.5 meter long two-handed staff. It was given by Kirito after he accidentally broke off a branch from the World Tree in Alfheim Online. She uses this whenever she is relegated to a supportive role, often the party healer. This, in conjunction with her mastery of the rapier made her known in ALO as "Berserk Healer". Intelligence: Brilliant tactician as she is the Vice Commander of the strongest guild in Aincrad, the Knights of Blood. Masterful rapier user to the point that she became known as "The Flash" for her speedy and dexterous strikes that even Kirito noted that he cannot follow. Weaknesses: Sword Skills have a slight aftercast delay at the end of them in exchange for increased power. Notable Attacks/Techniques: Star Splash Flashing Penetrator Sword Skills (SS): A series of moves or combo moves that allows the user to attack much faster than they normally could, but its movements are fixed and it cannot be cancelled by the user after it starts. Contrary to its name, it does not have to be used with a sword. Star Splash: A high-level 8-hit combo that begins with 3 short thrusts to the chest that are notably low-damage but extremely fast, followed by two slashes at the legs, two jabs, high and low, and finally, a strong jab to the chest. Flashing Penetrator: A high-powered charging attack that makes a sonic boom and leaves a trail not unlike the tail of a comet. Although the skill only really hits one target, anyone caught in its charge gets blown away. It is typically unused in a 1v1 situation due to requiring the user to sprint to build up speed but is a good attack to disrupt enemy positioning. It has long aftercast delay. Quadruple Pain: A 4-hit combo that Asuna used against Yuuki's Mother's Rosario. Though she lost, it was notable that it brought Yuuki down to yellow health. Original Sword Skills (OSS): Sword skills made by or is inherited by the user from another. It is done by recording the creator's movements while the skill is being done. It is very difficult as it requires the user to do it perfectly as speeds above how they normally do, at speeds of that of sword skills. Mother's Rosario: Mother's Rosario An 11-hit combo she inherited from Yuuki. The skill begins with five consecutive stabs in a straight line from the top right to the bottom left. The user then draws their sword back and performs another five consecutive stabs in a straight line from the top left to the bottom right, perpendicular to the prior five. The two lines together form an X shape with their third hit overlapping. Finally, the user tilts their body and uses their entire strength to perform a last stab directly at the intersection of the cross-shape created by the former ten strikes. Magic: Allows the user to use race-unique and Alfheim standard magic. Asuna, as an Undine is naturally inclined towards recovery-based magic and the water element but he also uses standard elemental magic to imbue her rapier with it. (Note: ALO Asuna only.) Underwater Combat: Due to their affinity with water, Undines are experts in underwater combat. This makes them valuable assets when faced with water-type monsters. Wall Run: As one of the lightweight races, the Undines are capable of using the skill Wall Run, that, as the name suggests, allows them to temporarily run on walls. The normal limit is a distance of ten meters, but those with an extremely high sprinting speed are known to be able to run for about thirty meters.

Noone's done this before apparently, and I dunno if this has been established in-canon.

Both have all their ALO gear.

Speed Unequalized.

Who wins?

Kirito: 0

Asuna: 1

 

[Schnee_One]

Asuna probably.

While Kirito is likely a bit superior in swordsmanship skill (Albeit barely as he's always had to use another tactic to beat her without swordplay), he's outclassed offensively due to another's Rosario and that's the only real advantage he has.

Assuming he has surpassed her in swordsmanship since then, he's outdone in both damage output and the fact that Asuna is more then skilled enough to match him.

 

[Jinsye]

bump

 

[Jinsye]

Bump

 

[Parugonu]

Kirito via better range(GGO quipment) and a very applicable range of spells n' such. That illusion-smoke spell's bound to benefit him too with his projectiles.

 

[Schnee_One]

Wait

<All equipment

100% sure you can't do that

 

[Jinsye]

I mean.

Look at Kirito vs. 076.

Look at Kirito vs. Ruby.

Should be okay.

I can remove GGO though if you want me too.

 

[Schnee_One]

Then remove them.

We don't allow different keys to merge into one if they have never done it or if it isn't even possible for then.

I'll bring them up

 

[Jinsye]

tfw that kills all of Kirito's losses

 

[Xmark12]

Ay, thaz a good thing.

Anyways, bringing my two cents in, I still think Kirito will win this. Asuna may be faster with a blade, but Kirito to be honest is better overall. Even in their SAO or ALO keys only, Kirito's more versatile, knowledgeable on the game (less so if they're fighting in ALO however), arguably has more will to not give up (if we're assuming that they're fighting without holding back), more powerful (Kirito's lvl 96 compared to Asuna's 94), and more.

 

[Schnee_One]

I mean.

Even if Kiroto has gotten better, he hasn't actually been shown to surpass Asuna in swordsmanship.

Heck the two times they tested eachother out he had to rely on non swordsmanship based tactics.

Also, non of that counters Mothers rosario

 

[Xmark12]

Um... Starburst Stream? Eclipse?

 

[Schnee_One]

Isn't that SAO only?

Because I'm 99% sure we can't mix keys like that.

 

[Gemmysaur]

Kirito takes this by being demonstrably better than Asuna at most everything sans notably, attack speed (jabs are faster than hard swings with heavy swords), leadership and charisma.

Not to mention, the only reason Kirito didn't get to go with Yuuki and thus, get Mother's Rosario is because he figured Yuuki's reasons out.

Lastly, Mother's Rosario can be countered by his elemental sword skills that he can chain into a theoretically infinite combo like Tekken with swords.

 

[Schnee_One]

So Gemmy.

Can the keys and equipment really be mixed like that?

 

[Gemmysaur]

There is no such rule, but it is typically not allowed as per unspoken agreement. Whether or not having a fight between Composites without their own profiles are allowed on the other hand, I don't know.

 

[BruceTheBatman]

Kirito via better... everything except speed. He wins around 8/10

 

[Akreious]

Asuna just generally lacks the pure showmanship that Kirito has. He's more experienced (Beta Tester + Solo Player since the beginning and only stopping for short periods) vs Asuna's Anger Grind. And even though Asuna has faster attack speed, that's only due to the nature of her weapon which deals less damage per strike while a single good hit from Kirito would shave clean off an equivalent of 5+ hits from Asuna.

There's also the fact that Dual-Wielding skills seem to be roughly comparable to Asuna's skills in terms of sheer speed so those would somewhat alleviate the difference.

Also Kirito has like all the Plot Armour. So. Yeah.

Kirito 8.5/10

 

[LSirLancelotDuLacl]

Kirito via too powerful Plot Armour

If all ALO gear means literally all the gear in that game, I just don't see Asuna having nearly any chance at all with him using Excalibur.

If we mean just their equipment from that arc... yeah, no. Demonstratively there's nothing to show Asuna is above Kirito's level of skill in swordmanship. At absolute maybe possibly best she's equal. Plus, her reaction speed should still be better, even if she has the speed.

 

[Xmark12]

Bump

 

[Asuka_the_Demonic_Empress]

Kirito fra.


He just has a lot more experience than Asuna in anything ccombat wise, the only think Asuna has that could kill Kiri is mother´s rosario.

 

[Xmark12]

Bump. Both got decent changes and upgrades since this thread first started.

 

[Gemmysaur]

Nothing changed about how they relate to one another in the totem pole of power. When she was chosen by Yuuki to join her in boss raiding, Asuna's first question was "why not Kirito"?

 

[The_mysterious_man]

kirito fra

 

[Mr. Bambu]

Kirito FRA.

cruel battle btw oh no

This is all I have to say

 

[Mr. Bambu]

> Gary Stu

in a wiki with superman and goku, whose main character points are "i win", always found it funny SAO gets the most shit for it. i guess it truly does roll down hill

 

[Asuka_the_Demonic_Empress]

>Goku

>Main character point is "i win"


Name one time Goku won on his own (no outside help or using techniques taught by others) against anyone and ill name 3 where Superman wins by "fighting seriously" or just going to the sun. and LLENN is best SAO since she actually played GGO for a long time.
