The official Sword Art Online website has updated with the full staff & cast for the new SAO season which will be serialising volumes 5 & 6 of the light novel (writen by Reki Kawahara, illustrated by abec). Yuki Kajiura has been confirmed to compose the music again. The anime will start airing on July 2014.
This arc, subtitled as “Phandom Bullet”, takes place in a other VRMMO game called “Gun Gale Online” in which the players are fighting with guns, and this time they can log out freely 😉
Anime Title: Sword Art Online II
Starts airing: July 2014
Animation Studio: A-1 Pictures
Director: Tomohiko Ito
Main cast: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Kirito, Miyuki Sawashiro as Sinon
In other news, the NHK drama, Hanako to Ann for which Kajiura is also composing, starts airing on March 31, so dont forget about it 🙂
this love story again?
is there no end?
The novels are on volume 13 now, and this season will cover volumes 5 and 6 so, no, there’s no end 😉 Also this arc has no focus on love at all, so rejoice 🙂
that was a rhetorical question :9
since the first two arcs were already tainted with bad directing and bad use of music, how can we be sure this one will be better with or without the cheesy love story?
We cant, there’s only hope.
I’m happy about it.
I just hope there will be new tracks and not reused ones p-p
^ dont worry about that, they will be defitenely new (well maybe they will only re-use “swordland”)
WAAAAAAH! HOW ABOUT FOR THE REMAKE OF F/SN? THE WAIT IS KILLLLLINNGG MEEEEEEEEEE!
^ There’s still no news on who composes for it. but there’s possibility that Yuki Kajiura will do that one as well, since she has done Fate/Zero and KnK and Madoka and SAO, its all Aniplex XD
Geeeezzz…I hope they will announced it sooooon and I really want a confirmation. :3
Btw, thank you for the info..it calm some of my nerves..hehe
FZ ost is being used on FS/N trailer (or PV?) that released on 27 dec (or it’s just a fanmade?), it’s possibility is no zero. :3
^ No its official. The first music is “Fate to Zero” from FZ ost 2 and the second from the OST of the PS Vita FSN game.
Hey everyone, I have been looking a specific song from SAO Season II. On episode 9 of the anime when Kirito is deflecting the bullets with his sword, there is a slightly different version of the SwordLand theme playing, I was hoping someone could give me hand in finding it.
Thanks!!
-Arman 😉
^ Τhe Soundtrack for SAO II isnt released yet, but it releases in December 12 http://canta-per-me.net/discography/sao2-ost1 pray that the track will be inside. OST 2 is expected around April or May.
