Sword Art Online

I just love thins anime, the animation is wonderful.
For those who have watched the series so far begs the question do the people really die? and how are they alive after 2+ years in real life?

Anyway just 2 more episodes left!

ARRGH!! I totally forgot about that anime. I've got some catching up to do.

Too fanservice-ish for my tastes. I like Accel World (same author) much better.

 

[Sandslash7]

I've heard good things about Accel World, and SAO (though arguably from the same person).

Time devoted to anime is an an all-time low, so I'll be skipping this one. GitS 2nd Gig and Eureka Seven AO takes priority.

Is the E7AO anime based on the manga? The other way around? Or are they different things entirely?

 

[Sandslash7]

I have not read the manga, but E7AO has nothing to do with any existing E7 manga AFAIK.

I still have no idea how AO fits into the chronological order of things. (which isn't a spoiler because you realize this in like episode 1-2)

 

[bullados]

There is an E7AO manga right now. But which one came first?

 

[TheRolesWePlay]

E7AO's manga started first in January, while the anime started in April of this year.

Just finished watching SAO up to the most recent episode. It's a really good anime. It has a lot of my favorite stuff in it: Video games, swordplay, all da pretty girls :biggrin:, and trench coats. I'm so buying Kirito's cosplay.
