About this ebook

“This might be a game, but it’s not something you play.” - Akihiko Kayaba, Sword Art Online programmer Without any memory of his first stint in the Underworld, Kirito has no idea what to expect now that he’s back inside. In his absence, however, much has happened in the lives of his former companions: Eugeo hasn’t been the same ever since Alice was taken by an Integrity Knight, and to make matters worse, Alice’s sister, Selka, has gone to follow in her footsteps, unaware of the danger that lies ahead...

Ratings and reviews

Good manga adaptation of the Alicization arc in the original light novels. I forget if this was released (in real book form) in English after the (also English adapted) anime, or if G-books is just slow? Anywho, if you liked this part of the LN or anime, you'll probably like this, even if there's not much different. May also interest those who like other parts of the SAO franchise (duh). A main complaint (at least in the last volume) is Google Books sometimes treats a horizontal 2-page panel as if it's one page, so one must stop and resize/pan often to read text made illegible by trying to downscale two full pages in a vertical phone screen. Google - listening? please fix obvious layout bugs like this, there's no reason to combine pages like that in the first place; it's made to be a Book, y'know? Books..?
