About this show

"Where...am I...?" Before he knows it, Kirito has made a full-dive into an epic, fantasy-like virtual world. With only a murky recollection of what happened right before he logged in, he starts to wander around, searching for clues. He comes upon an enormous, pitch-dark tree called the Gigas Cedar, where he encounters a boy. "My name is Eugeo. Nice to meet you, Kirito." Although he is supposedly a resident of the virtual world - an NPC - the boy shows the same array of emotions as any human being. As Kirito bonds with Eugeo, he continues to search for a way to log out of this world.

It's a wonderful anime and the music is emotionally connecting. They truly bring the characters to life and cross the border to the VRMMORPG's. Further more, when they bring in Alfheim Online (ALO) the whole idea of not being able to die and actually being able to log out now is a wonderful touch, as we can now experience their lives outside of the game.

For those not familiar with this show I would describe it as a mix of a nightmare on elm street and the matrix with a touch of saving private ryan. This is an impressive story to watch unfold I very much look forward to season 3 being released on google play :)

This anime is very good as well I don't mind the modern art style since Pokemon is using nearly the same art style as this anime and as well this anime has cinema quality sound so if you turn down the volume on your TV or device you will not notice a difference in sound which for that I recommend if you have fussy neighbors to watch this anime in the daytime instead of nighttime. So besides that I really enjoy this anime what I have watch of it so far.
