About Sword Art Online


 

“This is a game, but it isn’t something you play.”

-Sword Art Online Programmer Akihiko Kayaba

 

Sword Art Online is an anime adaptation of one of the most popular light-novel series (Dengeki Bunko  /  ASCII  MDIA WORKS)  written  by  author  Reki  Kawahara.  The  story  is  set  in  a not-so-distant future where people are able to play video games more realistically with the emergence of the NerveGear, a virtual reality generating device, which the players wear to stimulate their senses to control their avatars in the world of the game. Kirito is an experienced player who was excited for the release of the new Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG), Sword Art Online, a.k.a. SAO. But, when Kirito and all the other players logged on to SAO for the first time, they quickly realized that something was not right. The creator of the game, Akihiko Kayaba, reveals to them that they will not be able to leave the game world unless they defeat the final boss atop a tower that is 100 floors high! To make things worse, Kayaba informs them that if a player dies in the game, he or she will also die in the real world. Now Kirito must fight along with players to defeat the boss and free everyone from Kayaba’s dreadful ploy. Kirito and his friends will soon learn that Sword Art Online is more than just a game.
