About this eBook

Sword Art Online, the world's first VRMMORPG (Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game), may have started out as a game, but it has since become a matter of life and death for the ten thousand players trapped within. Two years after game programmer Akihiko Kayaba's chilling declaration--"This might be a game, but it's not something you play"--the number of players has dwindled to six thousand, and for many, every day is a struggle for survival. Though Kirito has stayed alive by making a name for himself as a solo adventurer in that time, his life undergoes a major change when he unwittingly joins Asuna's powerful guild, the Knights of the Blood. What does fate have in store for Kirito, Asuna, and the brave young fighters who are risking their lives to return to the real world?!

Ratings and reviews

sword art online is trash, the manga is pretty and the animes' animation is great. But the show itself is dang near close to harem, it's a really bad show. Doesn't deserve 3 seasons

People that are describing this manga as trash, are strictly immature, it's a opinion not a fact. If the show wasn't good it wouldn't have continued for 3 seasons.

This is a great series! I love the novels, anime series, and games. Especially Sword Art Online Memory Defrang. It has great graphics, characters, and leveling system. The main story line is the exact same as the anime. Except you can battle with not just Kirito, but with so many awsome characters from all parts of the sao franchise.
