Sword Art Online: The Movie - Ordinal Scale

Small notes to you guys before reading my reviews :

1. I've been watching its series from the first one on Aincrad until the next season which take places in Gun Gale Online and Alfheim Online.

2. I'm interested on how Reki Kawahara imagine what VR and AR games looks like and keep developing his imagination. Because one day I'll make Reki's imagination come true.

So, why do I give a really good score of this movie?

Because, this movie will tell you how Augmented Reality Technology will affect your daily life (it contains on the movie tho like calories counter and etc).

Something that I haven't imagined is how Augmented Reality turn Virtual Reality games into real world. Because playing in Virtual Reality means you are playing in the same place (not moving), but your character will moving to the fantasy world. Augmented Reality is the opposite, you are in the real world once you move, your body will moving to the same place.

And the story, it's related to the previous series. The same main characters and the different between how they fight in VR and AR is so cool realistic! You may pro in playing video games using stick or remote, but what if you are playing the same thing like you bring sword and try to kill enemies by your hand!

But why do I give it 9 out of 10? Because the fighting scene in the end of movie isn't realistic for me so yeah I'm so dissapointed because this movie end so fast with unrealistic logic of playing AR.

As someone who just started watching this show I was really intreasted to see how a sword art online movie would play out and I have to say I was not disappointed. SAO the ordinal scale takes everything I liked from the pervious 2 seasons and put them into a full length movie that completely I loved to death. This movie was just everything I wanted this movie to be. The cast in this movie steals the show which I honestly expected because the cast in the show is fantastic and they are once again fantastic in this movie. The story in this movie is incredible seeing how they take a story that is based around VR and brings into AR into the mix and they nail it. The action in this movie is great and super well animated. The animation in this movie is also incredible and honestly breath taking. The characters also have some more character development that I honestly didn't expect but I loved. As fan I love how they basically bring things from the anime into the mix and I loved how they continued right where the anime left off. The only thing I can say was weak in this movie was the villain honestly compared to the villains in the anime this villain was just Weak but it didn't take me out of the movie at all. Overall I loved SAO the movie it was everything I wanted it to be and more and I honestly want to watch it again right this moment.

I was a bit disappointed in the beginning, but the ending made up for it. Definitely worth the watch if you are an SAO fan. As much as it gave me closure, I still want more!

OK, this movie is stunning enough to made me write a review for the first time. Just came back from watching it. Its full house at the cinema. It is rare to see a full house at my country when the cinema is airing anime. This is absolute shock.

Story: 10/10 The story is great. It is a mixture of sad, emotional, tragedy, comedy and romance. Its sort like the mixture of SAO, ALO, GGO but mainly it revive that kind of feel after u watched the original SAO. It makes me feel nostalgic.

Art: 9/10 For me, the art can be consider good enough and at certain part the coloring is mind blowing especially when they defeated the monster. The animation also look more lively compare to the recent GGO. A great improvement overall. *Wagnaria Cafe (www working!) made a cameo !

Sound: 9/10 The OST is not as great as SAO but they did use back some SAO soundtrack (mainly Swordland) and even make an improved version for certain situation.

Character: 9/10 Nothing much to say here but the MC, Yuna is so kawaii (you will know what I mean once you really watched the movie). A little bit fan service as usual between Asuna and Kirito.

Enjoyment: 10/10 I really enjoy the 2 hour in the cinema and I do think that you probably need to watch the original SAO series first before watching this movie if possible try to finish ALO and GGO as well.

Overall: 9.4/10 Overall is 9.4 but I will definitely round it off to 10 instead of 9 because of the story, the comedy, again Yuna is so kawaii, the art and coloring during the FIANL MOMENT when the monster is defeated and the BGM being played at the right time at the right moment. I would definitely recommend any SAO fans to watch it, you will never regret!

It was great I like this show. Don't judge it by the rating.
