About this show

In the near future, a Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG) called Sword Art Online has been released where players control their avatars with their bodies using a piece of technology called: Nerve Gear. One day, players discover they cannot log out, as the game creator is holding them captive unless they reach the 100th floor of the game's tower and defeat the final boss. However, if they die in the game, they die in real life. Their struggle for survival starts now...

This is a 3 star purely because of one reason, the entire first season is split into 4. It's pretty clear they did this to pull more money out of us. The show itself however is perfect.

I have to admit SAO is awesome, the plot and story lines are great. I love all the characters however, Kirito and Asuna are tops who bring everyone together making this anime one to be treasured even if it is broken up into four parts it still doesn't take the fun out of the show and I binged on this anime when the need for swords cross my mind. Watch, enjoy and have fun.
