Synopsis

The story is set a couple of years after the events of Sword Art Online, where Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya and his sister Suguha meet up with Asuna Yuuki, Rika "Lisbeth" Shinozaki, and Keiko "Silica" Ayano at the SAO Survivor School. Kirito then attends emergency counseling, while the girls go for a swim at the pool. It turns out that said "emergency counseling" is a subterfuge set up by Seijirou Kikuoka, aiming to rehash the incident of Sword Art Online in hopes of determining Akihiko Kayaba's motives. What will the girls get up to in the pool, and what awaits Kirito and his "counseling"?

What a masterpiece. As expected of the legendary SAO series, one of the greatest animes of all time. Where other series would make a boring clip show of scenes from the previous season as a lazy cash grab, A-1 Pictures in a brilliant move makes a recap film that is enticing and able to captivate the audience. The shock as i saw many low ratings only lasted a short while, as I remembered the complexity of SAOs brilliance that makes it hard for the average anime watcher to understand and simply fly over their head. A must watch for all SAO fans or people with ...

Mixed Feelings

Sword art Online: Extra edition is a combination of an 80 minute summary of the first season and a twenty minute episode that is chronologically after the first season.

The story of the summary is the first season told as recollections by various characters and is okay as far as summaries go. One of the recollections is by Kirito who is talking to Seijirou Kikuoka, the member of the ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, who appears in the second season for the first time. This meeting is referenced in the second season but isn't important and you don't have to watch the summary for ...

If I wanted to be reminded of the story of the first season, I'd read the f*cking wiki. Absolute waste of time, don't even bother with this one. The story is awful, art/sound is on par with the first season and I was bored watching what was essentially deja vu for an hour and a half, since the vast majority is "el very stern government man" having Kirito retell the events of the first season (in great detail, mind you) for literally no reason but to fill content for an hour and a half so they can print money out of something that is essentially ...
