Sword Art Online (light novel)
| So I just started reading the LN today and I finished up the first book. Now that SAO is cleared and Kirito has woken up, I'm just wondering where the LN will go from that point. I know that the second book contains mostly side-episodes, but the LN's gotten to book 10. Do Kirito and Asuna begin another adventure in another game, or does the game Sword Art Online continue in some shape or form? Just wanna find out before I continue pouring time in... |
| it goes into the real world and you get a backstory on who asuna is and new characters are introduced and kirito is forced to enter the virtual world yet again in a new game Alfheim Online (ALO), i won't say anymore because of spoilers but its pretty awesome when it gets to volume 5-6 and then even more exciting when it reaches vol.9 |
 |
| volume 3 and 4 continue from where vol 1 left off, SAO is not quite gone yet. keep reading :0 |
NNick said: At the end of Volume 1, the creator of SAO actually didn't die, right? |
|
| About the SAO creator: And no the people who died in SAO are dead, they aren't alive somewhere else either. |
NNick said: Why the hell did he want to kill everyone then? What's the point? No, he doesn't want to kill anyone, shown by his effort to pay for all the medical bills of all the players till the game is cleared. It's just one sick experiment, he just wants to see how people will react and clear his game in these conditions and situations. He wants people to clear his game seriously. If he wants to kill everyone, he wouldn't need to carry all of them into the hospital, he can just fry their brains right there right now at that start of the game. |

| no, it was more about him wanting to create a fantasy world where people can actually live, he made the fantasy into a reality where you can really die and where you can live, he also wanted to create a beautiful new world where others can live and enjoy themselves like their in an adventure and eventually become the last boss i for one would love to live in that kind of world if possible, so i can understand kayaba for wanting to create a world where your dreams can come true |

NNick said: Want to hear something funny? When i was younger, way back when Play Station 1 was still popular, as a child i wanted to someday create a virtual world where everything i ever wished for would be real. Sad story. how is that funny? peoples hopes and dreams isn't something to be laughed about and why are you even talking about your life story when no one wants to hear it? -___- |

NNick said: Dreams are for fools, hope for weak. thats your opinion, not everyone else's and certainly not mine unlike you, im not a pessimistic person who has no hopes or dreams, i strive to achieve my dreams and hope is what fuels my ambitions |

| i don't know who you are nor do i care, so stop being so conceited |

| I'm guessing that by this point in the anime [ep.5] the side stories are mostly done (except for the one with the blacksmith, and even that one can be integrated fairly easily into the main plot) so it will move right into the parts where Kirito and Asuna can develop. On that note, is this season 12-13 episodes or 25? Also, where is the LN in terms of plot progression? Does it look like the LN will end any time soon? |

| I just finished up the 4th volume. I'm pretty invested in Kirito and Asuna's relationship and watching it develop further, but at the same time, I feel the story for them seems pretty much over. I get that the other arcs are interesting, but are the characters as engaging? Do we see any more of Kirito and Asuna? |
| How many more episodes do you think there'll be until the real story starts? Also, until what arc do you guys think the anime will go? Will it reach the ALO arc? (I haven't read the LN, so I don't know what there is to cover until ALO). |

(I haven't read the LN, so I don't know what there is to cover until ALO). Main story starts at episode 8, and they will adapt ALO in the 2nd cour most likely near episode 13 |

Asuna, well, not as much in the GGO arc, which comes right after ALO. For some reason I feel like the author has really minimized her presence in vol. 5 and 6 even though she won't just disappear. This was disappointing to me too considering that I wanted to see more interaction between them after the ALO arc. The good news is that the author mentioned at the end of vol. 6 we'll be seeing more of Asuna in vol. 7. That's about all I know at this point. |
tezann_t said: Draconalis said: Snip That's disappointing... but I suppose the characters would get stagnant if they were conjoined at the hip. Idle_Observer said: Snip That was another thing I was concerned about. How often can the people really fall into these perils of one nature or another before it starts getting tedious. I dunno... Maybe it's time to put the series down... at least for a time. Forgive me, but your assessment of the new characters seems to be "She's interesting... but she's not what you're looking for at this point." It's one reason I'm not a huge fan of shifts in characters in series I enjoy. I already have established characters I want to watch grow. Maybe I'll give it some time and then try it out... |
