The episode where the hero gets blackmailed was just pathetic. I can't believe you'll just keel over for something like that. Almost made me want to stop watching the show.

Me too. The episodes before that arc are interesting to watch

Having been fully healed by Chiyu, Nomi makes short work of Takumu and defeats him in horrific fashion. As Haru is overcome with anger, he is overcome by a dark power urging him to destroy Nomi, displaying a similar power to Dusk Taker, though the timer ends the battle before it can escalate any further. Upon returning to the real world, Haru and Takumu confront Chiyu, who claims she has joined up with Nomi of her own will. Believing there is something more to this, Haru tells Takumu about the incarnate system, suggesting they should find a way for him to learn it before facing Nomi again. As Haru grows fearful of the dark power inside him, he calls up Kuroyukihime for a little bit. As Haru and Takumu believe they may be able to learn something about the incarnate system from Yuniko, Scarlet Rain. Haru finds himself under suspicion over the camera found in the girl's shower room.

As they make their way to meet up with Yuniko, Haru explains to Takumu how Seiji had set him and Chiyo up. After hearing about their situation, Yuniko agrees to teach Haru and Takumu about the incarnate system, explaining the different skills that can be performed with them. As the type of skills an avatar can learn depends on the user's personal traumas, Takumu explains how he was bullied in elementary school, even leading to getting a scar, which gave Cyan Pile the weapons it has. As Yuniko begins training Takumu, Haru is joined by Yuniko's ally, Blood Leopard, who takes him to Akihabara to investigate how Seiji hides from the matching lists. They arrive at the Akihabara Battle Grounds, a fighting arena for Burst Linkers which is also having troubles with an unlisted Burst Linker called Rust Jigsaw.

Leopard decides to enter herself and Haru into a tournament to lure out Jigsaw, also explaining to Haru how overusing the incarnate system can bring him closer to darkness. Sure enough, Jigsaw comes to challenge them, but Haru and Leopard manage to overcome his tricks and defeat him. After the match is finished, the two return to the real world to seek out Jigsaw's user, but end up losing him. The next day, Haru decides to talk to Chiyu, who had started participating in battles with Seiji, swearing to take back what Seiji had stolen from her. As Haru analyses what information he had learnt so far, who deduces from Jigsaw's actions that Seiji was using an illegal brain implant chip to hide from the matching lists. As Haru confronts Seiji with this knowledge, Seiji suggests they settle things in an all atakes battle in which they wager all of their burst points.

On the day of the battle, Chiyu asks Haru and Takumu to join them on the field so she can see the battle to the end. As the sudden death duel begins between Haru, Takumu and Seiji, Haru is ambushed by an ally of Seiji's, Black Vice, who possesses a deceleration ability. As Haru remains trapped, Takumu takes on Seiji using his new incarnate ability, Cyan Blade, managing to overcome Seiji's Demonic Commandeer ability and slice off one of his arms. Seiji explains that he was bullied by his older brother, driving him to become more powerful and get his revenge. He then proceeds to take Chiyu hostage and torture her, causing Takumu to lose his will to fight. As Haru laments the hopelessness of the situation, he manages to regain his resolve and break free from Vice's grip. As Seiji prepares to finish off Takumu, he is stopped by the arrival of Kuroyukihime, who managed to enter the field from Okinawa using the item she got from Sulfur Pot. Engaging battle with Vice, Kuroyukihime encourages Haru to stand up and defeat Seiji.

Episode 24, Final Episode, "Reincarnation"

• Haru equips the Gale Thruster and engages in aireal battle with Seiji, managing to deal a strike before it runs out. Although Chiyu uses her Citron Call on Seiji again, healing him, Seiji's wings suddenly disappear and return to Haru. Using the combined power of his wings and the Gale Thruster, Haru deals the finishing blow to Seiji. After the battle, Chiyu reveals her ability isn't healing but is in fact the ability to reverse time, which she used to return Haru's wings to their rightful owner, revealing she only sided with Seiji in order to level up her ability to pull it off. As Seiji becomes desperate, Vice reveals to Seiji that his brain implant chip will disappear once Brain Burst is removed before taking his leave. With nothing left to save him, Seiji is finished off by Haru and loses his Brain Burst. Afterwards, Chiyu reveals it was her who told Kuroyukihime about their situation and decides to join their legion. After Kuroyukihime returns from Okinawa, she visits Haru, who explains everything and wishes for her to stay by his side. Back at school, Haru is cleared of suspicion whilst Seiji has lost all of his memories relating to Brain Burst. Afterwards, Haru takes Kuroyukihime to finally reunite with Raker, where it is revealed that Kuroyukihime's name, or at least nickname is "Sachan".

Final Thoughts :

• unang impression ko sa anime na 'to, halos katulad nang ibang anime na gumagamit nang Computer at Multi-Media Online Game sa makabagong paraan na ginagamitan nang isip at virtual world, gumaganda sana ang anime na 'to pero sa huli, nasa madugong labanan na 'to, as I thought, unang impression ko sa main character na si Haruyuki Arita ay isa sa biktima nang Bullying since the 1st episodes hanggang sa isang main heroine ang tumulong para makahanap nang liwanag at pag-asa, sa pamamagitan nang Online Game na Accel World na pinigilan ang oras at lalaban sa Virtual Game(almost sana sa mga nakapaglaro nang Cosmic Break), pati ang mga kaibigan niya mula pagkabata, naglalaro pa rin nang Accel World, bawat characters may kanyang kanyang Duel Avatar, may Aerial type para sa labanan sa ere, may Land type na magaling sa Close Combat, may Artillery Type na magaling sa Long Range, may Support Type para supportahan ang players at Zero Type na pinaka-DANGEROUS sa lahat na dapat iwasan dahil sa sobrang lakas na ikinasama sa lahat nang players, Haru's Silver Crow ay Aerial type, Taku's Cyan Pile at Kuroyukihime's Black Lotus ay Land type, Yuniko's Scarlet Rain ay Artillery type at Chiyuri's Lime Bell ay Support type, lahat nang laban, pilit makaabot sa mataas na level, pero ang nakakatakot na Zero type ay Nomi's Dusk Taker na ang ability niya ang NAKAWIN ang Abilities nang iba, pati Aerial type, NINAKAW pa, nasa last remaining episodes na at SUDDEN DEATH match na, tapos na ang laban at nagapi ang Dusk Taker, naibalik na ang Aerial ability ni Silver Crow at hindi lang healing ability ang Lime Bell, may REVERSE time pa kaya naibalik ang pakpak niya, nasa last part na, magkasama si Haruyuki at Kuroyukihime nang magkasama, may kasamang reunion sa pagitan ni Kuroyukihime at Fuko Kurasaki/Sky Raker sa wakas. Final Verdict, the Animation is good, magandang anime para sa mga mahilig sa online game, Storyline, maganda, may translation pa ang pamagat na title na may kinalaman sa episode na 'to, medyo ma-drama at ma-aksyon ang labanan, Characters, cute, pero ang nagkabahala ay loveteam nina Haruyuki at Kuroyukihime kahit iba ang itsura at slim siya, pati si Chiyuri, may gusto pa rin kay Haru dahil childhood friends sila pero nauwi kay Taku, eh paano si Yuniko para kay Haru, just pretend to be a Cousin, pati ang maid na si Blood Leopard, ah ewan, laging nagmomotor lang, at nakaka-irita ay kay Nomi Seiji with the most EVIL sa anime na 'to, Music, good, puwede na, at last, Content, medyo may nudity ang anime na 'to, especially some of the OP/ED has nude scenes, I've rate this anime, 8 out of 10, puwede na, pero pagdating sa nag-rate nang mga DENIZENs na kagaya nang MTRCB, SPG sana pero X sa huli.
