Ep. 13: Kirito and Asuna assist Nishida with fishing before facing a boss raid
Aired on September 30, 2012
While fishing, Kirito meets Nishida, who struggles to cook his catch. Kirito invites him home for Asuna to prepare the meal. Nishida then asks for help catching a large fish he has failed to reel in previously. After Nishida hooks the creature, he hands the rod to Kirito, but it turns out to be a massive monster. Asuna defeats the beast. Shortly after, Kirito receives a message from Heathcliff. The couple heads to the Knights of the Blood Oath headquarters, where they learn that a party was trapped and killed in the 75th leveled boss' room. Consequently, a team of players from various guilds, including Kirito and Asuna, is being assembled to fight the boss.
