Looking forward to this oh its true alright its been confirmed by anime news network, my anime list and is featured on the series web site . also extra edition was essentially a long ass recap episode of the entire first season as well as new material showing a dungeon in alo as well as the interview by the government agent handling the virtual division was the setu up for the gun gale online arc covered by the volumes five and six of the light novels fantastic reads by the way , im all caught up on the novels having recently finished volume 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forythos Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Sweet! One of my friends who doesn't watch a lot of anime loves SAO and has been asking me about the second season since forever, he'll also be glad to hear this! It's true that the show has some flaws, especialy in the second half, but it's stil an decent action adventure show and I'm glad if it helped get some of my friends a little more into anime.

roninmedia Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Knew this was eventually coming, based on how well Season 1 did. I'm expecting this to cover light novel volumes 5, 6, 7 and the second half of volume 8 with some fillers that fits in between volumes 4 and 5's timeskip.

Myozunitonirun Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Had a massive discussion about it on HB before most people got it. I can't wait. Sinon has an excellent VA, so that's even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okami Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 I just finished Extra edition and I remembered why I love it so much. I can't wait for the second season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosebleed Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Not surprised. I had already seen the director saying he was interested in SAO 2 but he was working on Gin no Saji first. Though i'm excited of course and can't wait to see it. Bring forth the Gun Gale Online (GGO) arc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anime followed a LN precisely so they couldn't do it any differently, and I don't really see anything bad in it as I think that Anime is perfect just the way it is as mein focus of a story are strong feelings/drama/romance and not action itself. And it is a reason that I love it so much as nothing else can give me suck strong feelings nothing else can make me so alive than when I am watching SAO. Or in Kirito's words "In this world, a single blade can take you anywhere you want to go. And even though it's a virtual world, I feel more alive in here than I ever did in the real one."

krill Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 acthualy if i remeber corectly they dident follow the ln perfectly the order of events in aincrad were off some what from them incorporating the short storys from the second volume as well as some from material edition . i get what your saying though too much filler would have been bad but the timing in the second half felt realy rushed like they dident have the right amount of eps to truely cover the material in fairy dance as it was intended . but every one has there own oppinion.
