Theatrical follow-up to Sword Art Online: Progressive - Hoshinaki Yoru no Aria.
This may be a game, but it's not something you play.
The world's first VRMMORPG (Sword Art Online) became a game of death. Over a month has passed since 10,000 users were trapped inside the game world.

Conflict erupts between two major guilds who should be working together – the top player groups ALS (the Aincrad Liberation Squad) and DKB (the Dragon Knights Brigade). And meanwhile, behind the scenes exists a mysterious figure pulling the strings….

If you want to actually enjoy SAO Progressive, just read the light novel.
This may genuinely be a cursed series. It's insane how you can have someone write out an entire light novel from start to finish on the premise of it a _previous series but this time it is more fleshed out, and you STILL can't accomplish it.
How do you drop the ball that ******* hard?
I honestly…
