** He refers to himself as "wanted" in Episode 11, so it's implied he hadn't been caught yet. It's likely he hid out somewhere while he played the game, and logged out to take care of his basic needs while everyone in-game slept.

** I have a theory that Fluffles also had the charisma hat, and that's how he managed to become such a high-ranking member of both the mafia and the Knights of the Blood Oath despite being an unintelligible cat. Maybe Keita got it from him and so the hat's powers have no effect on Fluffles or something. It's not based on any evidence, but I think it's consistent with the show's tone.

** Maybe he had already duplicated it, then Kayaba deleted the copied item after patching the glitch. I recognize that's not how it works in normal video games but it's the only thing that makes sense to me.

* His hat gave him a CompellingVoice. Why didn't he just tell the Mob to forget about the item he failed to duplicate.

[[folder:Where was Kayaba?]]
* Even if Kayaba spent all of those two years that the game was running as Heathcliff (which is likely, considering the other players would have wondered where he was if he disappeared for long stretches of time when no one could log out), where was his physical body? He mentions wanting to keep the feds off his back, but if they already have his physical body, there's not really a lot he could do other than keep the game going indefinitely and hope they don't try to unplug him.

[[folder:Tutorial NPC]]
* Keita [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom got a ton of players killed]] by stealing the tutorial NPC... singular. Why was there only one tutorial NPC to begin with? One tutorial NPC that can only help one person at a time would cause major backlog.

** In episode 16, we see that the creators of the game believe the moon landing was faked by "psychic Russian bears", so it's possible they included some more things you wouldn't expect from a children's game

** There's also the fact that 2,000 players died in the first month alone, so even if he spent that one whole month catching up on sleep, that's still more than he expected to die [[spoiler:thanks to Keita abducting the tutorial NPC]]. Add in the fact that other players are phenomenally stupid (Laughing Coffin, anyone?) and he probably decided keeping the body count from rising any further was more important than fixing the game.

** Also, the fact that the game is chock full of bugs may have something to do with it as well. I mean, a player stole the tutorial NPC, a player was able to teleport from a tower while hanging from a rope to use the snazzy death animation to trick people into thinking they died and actually killed players when their avatars died. The game not detecting a "Flawless Victory" correctly doesn't seem that far of a stretch, honestly.

** Consider in addition to everything above, there is the fact that we have no idea how the Nerve Gear functions, nor do we get any indication of what could happen if they removed it while still logged in. Think about it: you have an unknown device attached to your head that allows for you to have realistic VR. This isn't like an Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Windows Mixed Reality or Valve Index headset. This is a device sending signals directly into your very brain and disables your ability to physical move. What if by removing the headset, you end up causing a seizure that causes people to die because the Nerve Gear was still on? We get the indication that users log out, which then the Nerve Gear switches off to allow for the helmet to be removed. Since we don't know how the Nerve Gear works, we don't know how it sends signals to the brain, let alone what could happen if the Nerve Gear was removed while it was still in use.
