| i really liked the first season of sao but the second season is gun fights no? not my thing. do i need to watch it for the movie to make sense? |
| Not really, there are events that was mentioned in Alternative: Gun Gale Online but it wouldn't affect your experience if you haven't watched Sword Art Online II. |
 |
| I think it'd be helpful to know what happened during the 1st season at least. You can skip the other episodes. |

| It's been a while since I watched the movie, but I don't think you need to watch season 2 in order to watch the movie. However their might be 1 or 2 charterers (they're side characters in the movie) in the movie who you won't know since they're introduced in season 2, but that's not that important. |

| Technically no, although there will be a lot of confusing things throughout such as who is sniper girl and why does everyone get giddy when Asuna does that purple multi-hit combo? |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| Next time, don't ask MAL. Do it yourself and then tell us instead. |

| Second season is better than S1 , you should watch it m8,also best girl appears so you can't skip it. |
| You're gonna miss the most competent showing of SAO, bar the Abridged, in living memory: Mother's Rosario. And yes, I'm including GGO Alt. |

| No. You would understand OS without the GGO ARC and other side arcs. Maybe the Mother's Rosario Arc for the cameo at the end but thats all |
You can save your time and not watch SAO 2 at all ^-^ |
| Are we really gonna make it..? |
| I watched Ordinal Scale while only having seen 4 episodes of s1 of SAO and I don't think I missed much. |
     |
| You're gonna miss Kirito being a trap in season 2. Also another scary thing that's better than S1. |

You would appreciate it even more if you did, since there will be some small moments in the movie where you have to have that knowledge :3 But most of the movie only makes sense if you watched season 1 :3 Good luck on whatever you choose :3 |

Kingson said: Is not neccesary, but season 2 is better than Ordinal Scale. Okay season 2 GGO part is probably better but no way is season 2 ALO part better than Ordinal Scale. To the original question- nah you dont need to watch season 2 to understand what is happening in Ordinal scale. Yeah you need to watch season 1 but I am assuming you have. The only reason I would say is to know what game they are traveling to. You wont really know if you didnt watch season 2 but it isnt necessary. You should watch season two though it really does tie everything together. |
