Nice, first Accel World and now Sword Art Online - both 1/2 year series - good to see they're something to look forward to over the summer, last years mid year series (spring-summer) really disappointed on the whole, a couple of good series but largely missable so its good to hear early on that somethings worth watching

While the story isn't the most original, it's a concept that's always entertained and intrigued me.

The character art looks very nice - a female fighter sporting a breastplate that actually looks like honest-to-goodness armor? Thank. You. Anime smile

Definitely looking forward to this one. Some amazing and great-potential shows on the horizon for 2012! (Now if J.C. Staff will just announce Index III...)

hmm well it will be interesting to see how they adapt it. Given that the first story is more a somewhat slow paced romance than an action story... even including a pseudo sex scene from memory. Either they will do a somewhat bizarre show like most of the .hack, or they may include a lot of the story information from some of the prequel short stories to fill in action.
