The animated film Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale, based on the light novel Sword Art Online by Japanese light novelist Reki Kawahara, is scheduled to be released in Japan on February 18, 2017, and will be licensed worldwide shortly thereafter. A 12-minute preview of the film was released on the evening of February 10, so let's take a look at it first.
"Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale" 12-minute preview video:
The video begins with an introduction to the important component of the work, "Augma" (i.e. a convenient wearable AR terminal), and then the camera turns to the daily life of Kirito, Asuna and others. In the middle, Silica also held a solo concert and received warm applause from passers-by. Of course, there are also many fighting scenes that we are looking forward to, but because they are in the real world, Kirito's clumsy body limits his performance in the game, and Asuna complains about it.
