THIS REVIEW WILL COVER BOTH SEASONS OF SWORD ART ONLINE ALTERNATIVE GUN GALE ONLINE But what is Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online? Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online is a spin-off light novel series written by Keiichi Sigsawa, author of Kino no tabi and illustrated by Kohaku Kuroboshi, in Dengeki Bunko Magazine, and is supervised by Reki Kawahara, the author of the main series, This spin-off is set in the VRMMORPG GGO, which is introduced in the second season of Sword Art Online entitled Sword Art Online II. The story stars Karen Kohiruimaki, a girl who doesn't feel good about her appearance becauseshe is taller than other girls her age, and so she dives into several games until she finds the perfect appearance in Gun Gale Online, a VRMMORPG that smells of gunpowder and oil. There she meets Pitohui, a very skilled player, and they soon become friends, and then the story focuses on these two characters.

My opinion on Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online!

The story is really cool to watch, with very charismatic protagonists, and animation that is way above average, with a soundtrack that doesn't come close to the soundtrack composed by Yuki Kajiura for the main series, but it's still pretty cool, the fights are very good, because it is set in Gun Gale Online, the aesthetics are much more beautiful than in other games that SAO is set in, such as Sword Art Online and its floating castle Aincrad, Alfheim Online, which is a VRMMORPG that is beautiful, but I find its aesthetics so-so, Underworld, which I find very beautiful, but I find the dark aesthetics of Gun Gale Online, really cool,about the construction of the characters, Llenn ends up being a protagonist in certain parts of the anime better than Kirito in the main series but in others she is quite boring, but she is a sweetheart of a person, she is charismatic and her original voice is very cute Tomori Kusunoki she is exceptional. I don't like Pitohui as much as I like Llenn, but she's charismatic, but not as much as the protagonist. I think Fukaziroh is cool, but I think she's better in the second season. I think M is boring. I'm not a big fan of him like I am of the male characters in the main series, but I think that if the author developed him more, he would even be a likable character. The secondary characters, like Llenn's friends, are all very fun, well written, and I think their friendship was very well explored. Shirley and the other characters who appeared more in the second season, I feel like they lacked some development, but I liked the anime as a whole.

Now about the opening songs, the opening of the first season Ryusei made by the singer Eir Aoi is a more electrifying song that matches the aesthetics of the anime very well, GG the second opening is cool, and has an aesthetic that mixes black and white with a colorful aesthetic, and its music video is very beautiful, the song is well done too, I like Alternative Gun Gale Online as a whole, and the good thing is that it doesn't have as many problems as the main series (even though the main series is better), examples of problems in the main series that Alternative Gun Gale Online doesn't have, the character of the week who is saved by the protagonist and ends up becoming his friend, this in AGGO is not recurrent as it is in SAO and even though it has a bit of ecchi, it is not as cheesy as it is in SAO. But SAO Alternative the only problem I saw is forcing a bit for Pitohui to have been a beta tester of SAO and to have had some contact with Kirito, whereas in the Light Novel from what I heard it is not like that, but otherwise SAO ALTERNATIVE is really good

the grade 9 is deserved.
