Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (10/24 eps)
This Sword Art Online name is no stranger to our ears, starting from video games and even animation. SAO itself now has two franchises, namely SAO produced by A1-pictures / original and "Gun Gale Online" produced by studio 3hz. After six The year since the first release of the anime this series has taken many people's attention not only in Japan but throughout the world and their popularity can be said to be the same as Naruto or One Piece. The fifth project from A1-Pictures studio adapted the advanced chapter "Alicization" in all chapters Online sword art such as progressive and others, this is the longest of all the chapters and from the news I heard the alicization series was appointed as an anime which will have 52 episodes / at least 4 seasons.

Story

Tells about Kirigaya Kazuto he is a hero who stopped Sword Art Online game which is a deadly game made by Kayaba Akihiko, after completing the SAO game Kirito lived his life casually he was also with his lover Asuna who was saved by him. But that happiness was not always Kirito to meet a former member of Player Killer from Sword Art Online he wanted to avenge the death of those who were in the player killer organization by killing Kirito, but Kirito was saved but he had to struggle to maintain the performance of his brain by entering the "Alicization" program designed by the STL company there Kirito became a village person who had two friends.

The storyline in this series is very long and moves very slowly, it makes some viewers bored with some very predictable clip-parts, in the first episode they are very good at packing several clips into a story that can be said to be a masterpiece but not always it happens right in the middle they lost it all.

Art

Unlimited Budget Works is not just a name for ufotable studios. A1-pictures are also not inferior to ufotable studios, they crossed the line within themselves to devote all their abilities to this project and the results they could compete with very stunning graphic designs. Their CGI but A1-pictures can match them, regardless of how much money they use to make this series, which is clearly not a small amount of money left in this series, there are some CGI effects that we rarely encounter in other series and I'm sure they are working very hard to For the design of the characters I gave a negative value to this series, basically they designed the same characters by changing a number of looks like their colors and hairstyles to create new characters.

Sound

For the part of their voice that is very good seen from the quality of their voices in stark contrast to the characters they play to match it they must adjust the character they want to play especially the voice actor / seiyuu must fit in the role of character age, age is an important right in quality the voice of the voice must be made as closely as possible to the age of the character they are playing like Kirito who is seventeen years old while the age of the voice actor himself is not like that especially the voice actor also acts as another character in other series as well. This series has at least 4 seasons which means has four different opening and closing themes, the first theme "Adamaz" which was performed by LiSA was very good as always she was very passionate in singing high-pitched songs, in this series we came to the two voices we will discuss later.

Character

In this series we have two new characters, Eugeo and Alice, they are childhood friends of Kirito in the world who are being developed by the STL company. For the voices themselves the studio has been thinking carefully about this which was designated to fill the voice of Eugeo's character and Alice is Shimazaki Nobunaga and Kayano Ai. I rarely hear Shinmazaki Nobunaga's name so I will jump to discuss this one voice, but for Kayano Ai you must have heard her voice in some interesting anime series from Kayano Ai that she can adjust the sound quota with The characters they will play. Back in the discussion of characters in this series who played protagonists are still the same, namely Kirito and Asuna, while for playing antagonists it has not been shown but for the time being I assume that the one who set up the "integrity knight" is an antagonist.

Enjoyment

As a fan of manga and novels I really like the adaptation of the Sword Art Online series. They are very solid in adapting this series. The presentation of the action scenes they offer is very cool and full of surprises too. After the release of ordinal scale films I thought they had stopped to adapt the Sword Art Online series. because they have made a lot of profits in this business, but after I got the news that A1-pictures will adapt the advanced series Sword Art Online, which is alicization. For the continuation of this series, it is still in the working stage, hopefully in the future they can improve their performance in adapting this series.
