Find out in Sword Art Online project anime or pick up the light novel and enjoy the journey
The original story comes from a light novel like my Anime Gold #2
However just like it the creators of the animated show surpassed themselves
The not only crafted a show from a light novel with amazing colors, animation and heavenly music
They rewrote it in their on image whiles staying true to the original story making for a perfect blend and delivery
This time I was amazed by the begging of the show but the last moments of the first episode is where I fell in love
Maybe because of the events and experiences of my life
but it drew me in completely
and
from then on I could not stop until I caught up to episode 8 and had to wait every week
Now they are 2 full seasons of over 20 episodes as well as an epic movie each telling many of the light novel's stories
I wish you a wonderful time on this journey as I have so far
