People claim this is an enhanced, more detailed version of the first arc of Sword Art Online... however it will be in the form of a roughly two hour movie. How could they possibly do the arc justice in such a short time?

because it's going to be like Kara no kyoukai where it's a series of movies. meaning in the long run several 1 hour and 30 + minute movies will be longer then a 24 ep season the pacing is also being slowed down and form what i've heard it's only covering the world of Aincrad not the other arcs after it.

the synopsis even mentions this movie is focused on the first level.

meaning we might get a movie per floor

They won't adapt the whole arc , this Movie is just the 1st floor. (~Episode 01 & 02 of SAO S1)
The Light Novel Progressive is basically 1 Volume = 1 Floor.
So we could potentially get 1 Movie for each floor , but there is still nothing that has been announced about a continuation of this Movie. (Even if it's probable)

The movie will only adapt the 1st half of the 1st volume of Sword Art Online Progressive, which volume has the first 2 floors, that is, the movie will adapt only the 1st floor. And that wouldn't be a less rushed version of Sword Art Online, because Sword Art Online isn't rushed, the first 2 volumes of thhe main Light Novel, plus an extra story from volume 8 are adapted into 14 episodes, which o would say is a good average and not a little rushed.

It's only half the first volume of the light novel, not rushed at all lol.
I think the light novel is really good so I'm expecting this movie to be pretty alright too

Movie is only adapting the 1st part of the volume, not even one whole volume. Movie is also 97 minutes long which is equivalent to almost 4.75 episodes each which is more than respectable adaptation for 1 chapter. Afterwards, me might as well have series but there has been a rumours of another progressive movie web address being registered however time will tell.

SAO ended up at floor 75 and this is the story of Kirito and Asuna accentuating their journey depicting how the romace of two main characters begin in addition with fleshing their characters. However, according to some source, it is believed that LN will end at floor 25 because it is that floor where Asuna and Kirito went to the separate way. But given the slow place, it is even hardly to make floor 10 lol. So far, we only have 7 floor completed in a constitution of 8 volumes.

No problem. I would also like to have anime series because it will be damn frustrating to wait every 2 years to watch one move. With that pace it would take like 20 years just to adapt 8 volumes only because some volumes are super long similar to this where they are only adapting 1st part. Movie, series, OVA, Movie Series should be fine hera and then but just doing movie only it is nuts man. BTW SAO movie are bound to perform well and it is progressive which even haters wanna watch.

I complete agree, as a gundam fan there is nothing more painful then waiting years for an hour of footage like was the case with Unicorn and The Origin. Same with Digimon Tri, that wasn't even really worth waiting for๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜….

Yes but it's unlikely they'd all come out in one go as was mostly the case here๐Ÿ˜…, plus if each floor really does get 1 novel which gets turned into one film, then a movie for each floor could be 100 films๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I heard that they released 5 movie like that before releasing the series for Digimon. I don't want to share that fate tbh. I always prefer series over movie. But if they executed properly with series, movie, series it will be perfect. But only movie will make fans annoyed in long run like how you guys had to.

I can understand the sentimental. No one wants to grow just by waiting over movie only when it will take that long to adapt all in movie. Better be wrapped up in seasonal anime.

Yup, some say there are still no game no life fans out there waiting for season 2, others still await the day ADV will rise from the dead and finish dubbing zero's familiar. And of course those poor souls who still believe they'll be alive to see the day one piece ends๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Theres going to be multiple movies. The only reason the original was rushed was because it was NEVER meant to be so big.
It was a CONTEST entry and could only be so big. Progressive goes floor by floor. Hell one floor is 2 volumes.

Mind your own word there. This is an anime movie made to entertain people, and they deserve something in return to create more. Stop spreading your toxicity because no one cares about your nonsense. Your forum question said pretty much that you did not look for any research at all and further created a forum to show your ignorance and stupidity asking dumb questions about the series.

Actually, its made to make money off people like you. Sorry that the truth hurts you kiddo. If they truly cared about the story building they wouldnt have rushed this movie out. Instead they would have put YEARS into fleshing out a season of it. Theres a reason no seasons of SAO are above an 8. Your inferior taste in anime correlates to how inferior of a person you are

If they really make money out of me but I was happy watching it then I would have no problem with that. I even tried to support the creators by buying books, as you can see I am a light novel reader. So what should I feel bad about? Or is it just you showing out your own delusional thoughts, thinking that people who support this series has no taste?

Heh, now you show your true color. You are no different to the people who tries to step on other to feel superior. You are those self-proclaimed “superior anime fans” who thinks they have “better taste than people”. Calling people “kiddo”. Yuck.

Oh well, looks like I have exposed your cover good. And toxic people like you I will never argue with because there’s no valid point coming from you people. Have a good day sir.

P/S: I hope you are not that toxic and got so triggered that you change all your ratings for SAO from 7 and 8 to 1. But if you do that I cannot stop you, it’s your right to give it a 1 whenever you “want” to. What that action would do is just reflecting your own toxicity even clearer than it already was.

Its not yet announced if its going to be a series of movies yet, I mean just think about it they decide to do that then they will have to make 75 movies and thats just impossible.
If this does make an impact we might(low chance) get sequels as seasonal anime

Aincrad stopped at Floor 75 , so we could potentially get 75+ Movies.

But will they A1 adapt everything ?
In Movie format on top of that ?
To begin with , will the Author even be able to finish the Light Novel ?

A comment in the Movie discussion said that a Sequel was announced at the end of the Movie , but didn't precise what was said exactly.

You tell me, that's what Progressive was supposed to be.


In most cases, the MAL Average Scores don't mean anything, here is a question: were the works made before 2000 all shit?
Why are they so damn scarce in the Top 50? Think about how MAL is quite literally a filtered amount of the Anime fanbase.

Here's a timeline of the Top 15 in which you can check that, almost always, the scores are affected by the freshness, popularity and other factors that have nothing to do with quality.
