So I'm guessing maybe new footage or even a tease of spoiler[GGO]?

I'm somewhat curious to see how this will go.

Don't usually watch recap editions unless something significant is added but I'll make an exception because it's SAO. Looking forward to see what the new footage is.

Hmm.. I'm guessing it'll be the Tonki part that they left out of Fairy Dance. But I certainly hope the "new footage" is at the end, and that it's the prologue for volume 5, followed by a season 2 announcement. That'd be such a good cliffhanger for the ones who haven't read the light novels.

Give me my Accel World crossover and Phantom Bullet and I will forgive them for ever deciding to animate the eternal crapfest that was Fairy Dance.

A Recap of the show with some new footage ? Hmm seems this is the best Chance of announcing A continuation of the anime Series starting with GGO oh i certainly hope so , It would be great news to end with for this year:

Also you really cant blame the studio for adapting ALO they just adapted the way it was in the LN if u want to blame someone blame the person who wrote the arc but if they plan on making more of the series it was necessary to make it besides ALF is an exception the rest of the Story arcs are awesome GGO, MR , ALZ all of them and each one getting better after the another

I'm assuming the new footage would include the chapters from the Progressive series and maybe the short stories, The Day Before and The Day After. (Tonki's story would be nice too.)

Although almost every SAO fan dreams to have 16.5 animated... Highly doubt it though. =/

I just hope this means a higher change for a new season. I'm just aching for them to have some GGO merch. Need a Sinon figure. =P

I hoping that after this Year-End Special, there will be a preview or announcement for season 2 of Sword Art Online Smile

i think they skip the spoiler[discovery of Excalibur] part in the anime. Maybe they added that part back.

I don't know if you're aware, but there is a crossover story, it's called "Versus" and features an inconclusive fight between Kirito and the MC from Accel World.

But I am very much looking forward to GGO, it's my favorite arc so far of the series.

I don't know if you're aware, but there is an arc of Sword Art Online called Phantom Bullet, it's called "Phantom Bullet" and features Kirito joining a gun-based MMO in order to investigate an apparent murder.

Uh...yeah? I'm aware.
That's my favorite arc, mainly because Kirito starts to actually become less of a cut-out and more his own character.

Not to mention Sinon's kind of a badass and really likable.

I've been reading SAO for a good while now. Since '10 I think. And Accel World since it started being published.

GGO? if there is another arc following SAO in the light novel, i am definitely all for GGO getting an anime series.

and though i am glad there will be an extra edition, its too bad it wont show on AS.
