Sword Art Online could be interesting. I have never heard of it, but I like the game genre, so I will cross my fingers for it to be awesome.
The novel don't have a bad score either.

Do you know which studio?

If it was ZEXCS, there is a great probability that it will be screwed up badly.


Accel = Sunrise
Sword Art Online = A-1

Oh SAO getting animated? I wonder if we'll see chapter 16,5... at least implied. ^^ But only 1st volume please, i didn't read much of later ones.

Never heard about the Accel World though.

From what I've heard, ch. 16.5 was never supposed to be exist. That chapter is an elaborated troll from the translator.

No, its not a troll. Chapter 16.5 is the web version of SAO that are in the author blog site but never released in the light novel version.... Saw asuna picture in the poster, looks kinda weird...kirito picture looks good though...

I started reading both mangas as soon as I saw this announcement, surprisingly I liked Accel World more than Sword Art Online xD (at least so far, and I can't base my opinion on the novels either...). SAO is good, it seems better than 1/2 prince (at least it has some interesting plot/events), but I got more addicted to Accel World :P
Anyway, I will watch both~!

They look like nothing interesting or new. I know they want to utilize all that animation technology like in Guilty Crown, but maybe try some fantasy setting without abundance of such.

Read a couple of chapters of Accel World and it looks like it could be a very interesting series. I'm probably slightly more interested in Sword Art Online from the synopsis and the amount of praise the novel is getting, but i fear for that with A1 Pictures being the studio behind it. They seem to have developed a knack when it comes to fucking up adaptations here's hoping with SAO it wont be another case.

Which? I think SAO will be, Kirito is so awesome.

a +/- on the series is that it will have a sort of obvious heroine and that there won't be as many female characters(this is pretty realistic, of course)

Yes, SAO.

I agree with you. I prefer an obvious heroine, so that the show wouldn't turn out as harem. One hot chick is better then having a bunch of annoying and dependent chicks.

I'm afraid SAO is too awesome to get a satisfactory adaptation. I'm still pondering whether I should watch it or stick to novels without raging over poorly made anime...

As for AW... Fat shrimp, huh. I'm not too fond of lame ducks as main characters. And based on novel illustrations he seems to be quite popular with girls...
