SWORD ART ONLINE RE AINCRAD GN (2025)

Die in the game, and you die in real life. The only way out is clearing the massive floating castle Aincrad. The pinnacle of heroic sagas kicks off here!??

Die in the game, and you die in real life. This is Sword Art Online, the latest VRMMORPG, and Kirito now finds himself trapped in its unforgiving virtual world. By chance, he comes across a swordswoman named Asuna, who agrees to team up with him to challenge the boss of the first floor. The two join a large raid party to take down the beast, but when its attack patterns become unpredictable, the group's resolve will be tested...

After saving the Moonlit Black Cats, Kirito is drawn to their warmth and camaraderie which persists even in the bleak world of SAO. He sets aside the label of "Beater" and joins their ranks. With Kirito's help, the formerly weak guild makes quick progress and starts wanting to join the front line. But one night, Sachi, the guild's only female member, suddenly disappears. Kirito rushes out to find her, knowing how afraid she is of death...

After a player dies in a what was supposed to be an area inaccessible to monsters, Kirito and Asuna immediately head over to investigate. Could a fellow player be behind this incident...?
