<em>Kazuto "Kirito" Kirigaya is a programmer who enters a virtual-reality, massively multi-player online RPG (VRMMORPG) named "Sword Art Onlin</em> <em>e." This isn’t World of Warcraft or Guild Wars because there is no escape from this world unless the player clears the game, or dies because when it’s "game over" online it means the death of the player in reality. Without knowing the truth about the game’s rules, thousands logged in and entered this deadly game. Kirito accepts the rules and aims to clear the game with a female rapier expert named Asuna.</em>

A-1 (Blue Exorcist, Fairy Tail, Sora no Woto) is animating with Tomohiko Itou (Death Note) directing, Shingo Adachi adapting BUNBUN’s character design for the anime.
