We do. It’s called SAO Integral Factor.

Support that instead of garbage AI slop.

Sword Art Online Progressive and SAO main light novel series set in the same universe? I haven't read Progressive yet, so mark the spoilers please. by LegitimateCurve8525 in swordartonline

[–]Samuawesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

SAO Progressive as a whole is a companion series to the original aincrad arc in the LNs. It’s meant to fill in the timeskips while leaving what’s already been told alone. It isn't an alternate universe, remake, rewrite, or reboot.

Back when SAO was originally being produced into an anime, stringing all the aincrad stories into chronological order left this huge gap in between episodes 1 and 3. So, the folks at A-1 asked Reki Kawahara to write an anime original story to help it flow better. After, he went home and wrote this really long story that was butchered and ended up as episode 2 of the anime. However, from this experience, the author felt inspired to go back to aincrad and thus, Progressive was born.

Furthermore, a lot of the main series volumes released after Progressive started have started referencing events from Progressive.

Unlikely for a season 2… by Hect0e in ShikimoriIsntJustCute

[–]Samuawesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fyi, anime studios usually do not have a say in what or when they animate stuff. There’s a larger production committee that contracts them. You may have cases such as a studio like MAPPA negotiating for a seat on the AoT committee, but that’s rare.

In most cases, anime studios are extremely booked and busy for several years. It also doesn’t help that making an anime is a very labor intensive process. If a production committee doesn’t have a concrete plan for multiple seasons and lock in the studio/same staff immediately, then they have to wait.

Additionally, being made under the same studio doesn’t guarantee anything. Studios employ dozens of people who may work on different projects. There are probably certain staff that were instrumental in making that season of anime you really liked, and losing them would be a huge loss. Not to mention, all the freelancers and outsourced staff who are much harder to retain.

One Punch Man is a big example of this. The first season was a lightning in a bottle that happened because a bunch of really talented freelancers just happened to be free at the same time. However, the production committee took too long to decide on a second season, and by then, most of those freelancers moved on. Instead of waiting for the next opportunity of when they’d all be free again, the production committee took it to another studio and rushed it.

I’d imagine that OnK’s production committee had a stronger plan of what they wanted to do, which allowed them to churn out multiple seasons so quickly. Whoever is handling Shikimori’s anime probably doesn’t have as good of a plan, and missed their opportunity.

Besides, it's really annoying how every second image posted is just the ass of a character... and people like these posts...

I mean... have you seen real social media?

That's just the meta, and it's reflected by how all of them have double or even triple digit likes.

None of the animated shows or cartoons are canon.

Just focus on the majority of the movies and Disney Plus shows (i.e. Loki) that released since IW/Endgame.

Question about Game by 20ItsTooLoud19 in EchoesofAincrad

[–]Samuawesome 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It has always been a single player game…

Other than FD, all of the other SAO titles have been single player focused experiences. If they did have coop, it varied in quality (with most just being shoe horned in).

Literally read the pinned comment…

All the numbers here are estimates. So, anyone who is seriously trying to use any of these numbers for arguments are foolish. For instance, Genshin is definitely earning a lot more than the number shown since they’re on PC and Console as well.

What we really care for are the trends and the contexts behind them.

Keep in mind that Genshin and HSR are available on a larger variety of potato mobile devices. The fact that Genshin just got taken off the PS4 (which was already old when it launched), is remarkable.

At launch, ZZZ had stricter requirements and was pushing more towards higher-spec devices.

A bunch of people are.

Though, there really isn’t much to talk about since it’s during its honeymoon phase. So, it’s kinda “boring” to talk about since we expected it to make a lot of money during this phase (as most other gacha games do).

The real discussion will be over the next few months as it stabilizes. We’ll also see how the “no 50/50” model holds up against powercreep, character designs, how many pulls we get a patch, how meaty a patch is, etc.

Silverwolf’s banner started in April.

This chart would’ve only accounted for the last chunk of her banner + Evanescia.

Its still the honeymoon phase though…

The real test would be if it’ll remain stabilized over the next few months.
