Still, maybe this won't be too bad? |
GGO and Mother's Rosario are pretty much the high points. If those 'killed it' for you, you probably won't like anything else.

There was another crossover a while back, but no it is pretty established that they are in the same timeline.

I don't think time since season 2 is relevant. The LNs are selling amazingly well. A 2017 release won't be an issue for the fanbase.

That wasn't filler. They were adaptations of the light novel like everything else before it.
Granted they were smaller, less interesting stories... they weren't filler. |
Filler doesn't have to deviate from the manga. It was manga filler that was adapted into anime filler. Filler just means it doesn't progress the plot.

The "Suguha learns to swim" arc wasn't in any novel as far as I'm aware. To be fair though, that was an OVA-type clip show.
Other than that, yes, there was no filler. |
Kawahara did have a fair degree of input in writing that. To the extent that he apparently has a writing credit on it, and the DVD edition of it comes with a short story he wrote of them continuing the quest they were on at the end of Extra Edition.

Unless it's a new crossover, you're probably thinking of Versus, it's not recent at all.

You're wrong either way. How did GGO progress the plot? It wasn't through a new game world that is thrown away afterwards. It was through character growth. Mother's Rosario does that as well.

Interesting. I wonder if the dub cast will all reprise their parts? I quite enjoyed the dub on SAO, especially Bryce, Cherami, and Cassandra's performances; all three were fantastic.

Definitely hope they will too! Loved the dub cast. Only sad thing is since the premiere is in 2017 it'll be 2018 at the earliest until it gets dubbed Curse you Japanese reverse importation fears!

We linked to the Japanese version of the video in the article (I also live in Japan so that was the only one I could watch), so you can always watch that one.

Most fans actually liked Mother's Rosario, I was pretty sure.
Something from Phantom Bullet they managed to inconspicuously leave hanging becomes relevant again later, plus actual character development. If anything Fairy Dance has the least impact on the plot out of the lot of them.
Actually, since they were side stories, the entire first floor episode and any hint of Asuna ever having been a badass in the Aincrad arc other than in name only, as well as the Sachi, Silica, Lisbeth, and Yui's episodes would technically be more filler than Caliber and Mother's Rosario could ever be.

Best single novel in the series imo.

Hmm I'm not sure. Kirito meeting digital Kayaba is pretty important to both other VRMMOs and the path Kirito decides to take in life (he intentionally wants to develop one technology because he feels Kayaba would have favored the alternative). Also it introduced ALO and some characters.

Caliber is a side story as well. That said only Caliber is a direct follow up to something from the main story line novels (not counting Rosario obviously since that isn't a side story but a full novel). None of those other parts are hinted at whatsoever in the main storyline novel of the SAO arc.

This falls under "teaser" category". A teaser is <1 min. long, lacks plotline details since it serves to get people interested in the upcoming movie, and is made before post-production or during fdlming. A trailer is 1-3 minutes long, gives a basic plot idea (like which studio made it or some of the crew), and is made after the filming/editing is finished.*
*Paraphrasing the"Difference between Teaser and Trailer" article on differencebetween.info,
