Though Sakura Mamiya has been able to see spirits since she was a child, it has never been of much use and she wishes it would fade away. In highschool however she meets Rinne Rokudou, who works to send lost/evil spirits on to their next reincarnation, and her ability allows her to help him complete his tasks.

A comedy with occasional action scenes, a love-polygon subplot, and an extremely strong poverty theme. The comedy style leans toward deadpan reaction humor and slapstick, with situational and parody elements also making an appearance.

Posted on September 27, 2017 3:47 pm by Offkorn Comment

The SAO incident, which trapped 10,000 people in a virtual reality game for several years, is in the past and the survivors are now moving on with their lives. Technology is advancing as well and a competitor to the Amusphere soon appears on the market, one which provides a similar experience using augmented reality. Marketed as being safer than the full-immersion required by VR, the Augma quickly amasses a large following… but as Kirito and his friends discover, this AR experience is far more dangerous than it appears.

An action-drama with a romance subplot that takes place after Sword Art Online II. While it provides a brief recap of previous events at the beginning, there isn’t much point in watching it if you haven’t at least seen Sword Art Online.
