Story Synopsis

Kodaka Hasegawa is just trying to get through his school life, but one day he sees the cute but forever pissed off girl Yozora Mikadzuki alone happily talking to herself. “Can you see ghosts?”, he asks her, to which she responds “I am just talking to my friend here. My air friend!” (She is a goner…) Kodaka and Yozora start discussing how to make friends, and Yozora, with her excessive proactiveness starts a tragic club. Then, as things get more complicated, one by one other ‘regretful’ cute girls also join the club. Together they play games, go swimming, and they put together stage acts. Can our hero, who got suckered into the mess, become good friends with others? The even-though-it-really-leaves-much-to-desired-for-but-still-very-entertaining tragic youth romance story has been born!

Without knowing the «truth» of the mysterious next generation MMO, «Sword Art Online» (SAO), approximately ten thousand users logged in together, opening the curtains to this cruel death battle.

Participating alone in SAO, protagonist Kirito had promptly accepted the «truth» of this MMO.

And in the game world, a gigantic floating castle named «Aincrad», he distinguished himself as a solo player.

Aiming to clear the game by reaching the highest floor, Kirito riskily continued alone.

Because of a pushy invitation from a female warrior and rapier expert, Asuna, he teamed up with her.

That encounter brought about an opportunity to call out to the fated Kirito―.
