“#Sword Art Online Delivers the Frightening News that Players Can’t Return in Progressive Film CM”
Japanese freelance newscaster Chiaki Matsuzawa appeared in a shocking video yesterday reporting the news that players who had entered the Sword Art Online game with the new Full Dive headset cannot return to the real world. Though the news is worrying indeed, the video does note in the corner that it is actually just a commercial for the upcoming Sword Art Online The Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night anime film, set to hit Japanese theaters on October 30.
Matsuzawa has appeared as a news reporter on everything from Digimon Adventure tri, My Hero Academia, and even the Shin Megami Tensei series, as well as being an actual newscaster in Japan.

Hearing this, all of the players panic, and pandemonium reigns.
One of those players is Asuna, but despite not yet knowing the rules of this world, she sets off to conquer the floating iron castle, Aincrad, whose peak is too high to be seen.
As the days go by in this world where death is never very far away, she has a fateful encounter. And then, a parting…
Though she’s at the mercy of the reality before her eyes, Asuna fights on with all her might, until someone appears before her: the aloof swordsman, Kirito…
