I personally feel the first movie was better (from the animation, story, and character perspectives). I can’t say much about this since it will be a spoiler, but if you’re a fan of her, you will love it. Argo was a breath of fresh air, and the second movie is almost like a redemption arc for Mito. Rather than focusing fully on Asuna like in the first movie, I feel like they tried to focus more on the relationship between Asuna & kirito. This combined with Yuki Kajiura’s music and awesome work of the seiyuu makes it even better. The boss battle against the fifth-floor boss was epic and very intense. The second half of the movie (plot rising, climax, and resolution) is just pure awesome.Īnimation is great as we know from the recent seasons of SAO, and I don’t think I need to explain the brilliance of SAO’s battle scenes. ![]() Although I personally feel like there should be better ways to introduce the above-mentioned things other than just talking, if you’re a fan of the series, you will find all the talks and buildup are actually interesting. However, since the movie skips the second and third volume of the novels, it started quite slow with a lot of talking as they need to explain the key points from the previous volumes such current relationship between Kirito & Asuna, the guild situation, Argo who is our new character, and at the same time building the plot for the current situation. Just like the first movie, the second movie did this, which is nice. What I love the most about the progressive series is that they take it slow rather than just skipping all the floors and major events. Enjoyable story, fascinating animation, great characters, and epic music. It covers the 4th volume of the progressive LN (mainly the 5th floor of Aincrad but some events take place on other floors). Sword Art Online: Kuraki Yuuyami no Scherzo is the second movie of the SAO’s progressive series. However, there could be very minor spoilers. *Disclaimer: tried my best not to spoil anything. Have self-esteem for others and for yourself.) There is no need to spread misinformation or hate for the sake of hate. ![]() I highly doubt that presumable future English speaking reviewers live in Japan. Respect yourself and other people's work, do not disgrace. People who do not live in Japan and, like maniacs, for no reason, pursue franchises that they do not like. (At the time of writing this review, the film is only available in Japan. I wish you all a pleasant viewing and a good time. If you really love the canon light novels, this is where the film can upset you a little, but otherwise, everything is fine.Īn epic story with magically atmospheric music and touching aesthetics for lovers of good stories or cult franchises. If you are a fan of SAO, this movie is for you, if you like "anime canon SAO", yes of course. If you're into just epic adventures with depth, this is the movie for you. Under the effects of the cinema, I'll give it a 9, but objectively it's a solid 8. ![]() Unless some fanatics or a maniac who pursues franchises that they do not like. I don't know who can objectively dislike this movie. The work of the seiyuu is very touching, the plot is extremely dynamic and covers not only "death in the game - death in reality" concept. The chemistry between the main characters is amazing. As part of the "anime canon", everything is very good. Because despite the departure from the original, its spirit, depth and ideas are preserved. (and I'm not talking about Mito, everything is logical with her, even though she was not in the lightīUT, despite this, I'm still extremely satisfied. Some scenes have been changed, changed places, or adapted to "anime canon". On the other hand, as someone who has read a light novel, I see discrepancies with the original. Argo is just adorable! (who knows Argo will understand) Because the atmosphere of the same classics are observed very well. Amazing music by Yuki Kajura, good animation, expansion of lore and fans of the Aincrad arc will be especially pleased. The second part continues the trend of the first.
