It looks more like Shinon in the second image, but maybe it's just the character designer's same-face syndrome

I guess Shinon could be that "certain someone." It is possible they wouldn't recognize each other's avatars in different games. Shinon doesn't have blue hair irl though (it's black) and that pic looks like it's irl.

Uh oh, that's not a good sign.
Also, I think the name of the most important and well-written character in the series is Suguha, not Sugeha.

Yeah, that's Sinon and Kirito in thier GGO avatars, on a beach... I don't think that image is suppose to be canon, it's just a neat poster to hang on your wall or something xD
Anyways, I think that "certain someone" is the Government agent, Kikouka, which would signal the start of Phantom Bullet (GGO) arc.

Very happy that it's 2 hours long, Reki Kawahara taking part in the writing is great news as well.

Ya know, if it bothers you so much, can't you just ignore it? I'm not even a big fan of SAO and I find people who wish something they don't like to just die a tad bit ridiculous.

While in real life, Trolls only exist in fairy tales and stories, this is the internet, where they freely roam the internet. This guy here, is an example of one of them.
Really, the series receives so much unnecessary hate, for ridiculous reasons. Most people I know of who hate on it, barley even get through the first few episodes of the anime, or just read reviews of it, but other people who didn't like it.
Personally, I find that the anime was poorly done, and mostly wish that the animators didn't cut out/change so much content, that to me, completely defined certain scenes in the story...

No, not quite. I'm sick of shit like this holding back GOOD anime. I don't see new TV series for something like Ghost in the Shell. Yeah, I see OVAs, but that's not enough. I want a two season series of GITS, with 26 episodes each and Kenji Kawai/Yoko Kanno. Do you know what else I want? A remade version of Trigun, with a story following the manga better, unlike the original series, which was good on its own, but a garbage adaptation. I want anime with Production IG level character design CONSISTENTLY. Is this too much to ask? No, no it's not. I don't want crap, with terrible, diverging mid points, awful characters, cheap character designs and low fun/excitement factors.

I just logged in to say just how retarded of a reason that is. You want *This*, *This*, and *This*. The sole reason you can't get *this, *this, and *this* is because OTHER anime are being made? lol
If you want "Consistent" character designs then you find someone who is willing to pay a shit-ton of money to fulfill those wishes of yours. Very few anime have consistent designs...hell Attack on Titan didn't.
I want adaptations of many mangas and remakes too (like a remake of Fairy Tail...) that doesn't mean that if I thought SAO was shit (which I don't) I would go and say stuff like that - just because I can't get what i want. Shit costs money to make.

Yes...
anime isn't made to fit your specific tastes. And if you want it to, vote with your wallet.
