SAO Ordinal Scale is set after Mother Rosario and before Project Alicazation timeline. It began with there are new technology called Ogma which is an integrated AR (Augmented Reality) getting popular among society. Ogma very much useful in many ways such as Weather forecast, Messaging application, Idol called Yuna and game called Ordinal Scale. Kirito and the ganks are playing Ordinal Scale facing the boss that appeared before on SAO. Strangely, People that played SAO before being hurt while playing OS, then lose their memory during the SAO time. what is going on with this new game?
Sword Art Online never satisfies because their shallow storyline. in this SAO ; OS movie, the plot is very much clear and easy to read. the most boring part is the build up of the story to the climax is so slow. From the climax, we see many fights and cool moves by Kirito, then again reki kawahara decided to make Kirito is super Over Powered character. sometimes this movie put some kind of joke inbetween the scenes, i like those kind of things. the other focus in this movie is romance between Asuna and Kirito. i really like this things inside the movie where kirito decides to give anything to save Asuna, and while asuna on her lowest peak, she decided to help Kirito. Reki never fails on this one.
The Art is the most disappointing part from this movie. Although having a superb 3DCG, still can't properly use a regular animation correctly. if its on TV series prolly im gonna said that its enough, Movie takes another level and clearly SAO cant reach that level. some art just only rescale from the TV animation scenes which makes it stretched so bad on theater. 3DCG is really appealing in this movie. Fight scene takes your breath away and i love how the storyboard works on the last boss fight.
The Music is really good, Insert music are really good during fights, BGM also fits with the movie. LiSA ending song are good enough for this songs. The seiyuu act really takes my breath away. Matsuoka, Tomatsu and Sawashiro really going allout for this movie.
Enjoyment in this movie is mostly because the hype, but SAO Fags would love to see this movie and their waifus on the big screen. for me, this movie is slightly upgrade from 2 season Tv series but nothing special came out from this movie. The VA act really good especially Matsuoka really going all out and give us a new insight of Kirito in desperate mode and how Asuna really transform into a fine woman in this movie.
Asuna Still best girl for SAO, but i still cant find myself liking this series,
6/10
