Episode 18: Invitation

While visiting Okinawa on a school trip, Kuroyukihime shops for souvenirs with Megumi until Ruka Asagi and Mana Itosu approach her. The two local Burst Linkers ask for help against a monster troubling their Accel community, and the conversation makes Kuroyukihime forget Megumi's present, leaving Megumi hurt. Kuroyukihime apologizes by explaining that Megumi has kept her connected to the real world since she discovered Brain Burst seven years ago. The following day, she enters the Accel World with Ruka and Mana and meets their master, who is someone she knew before.
