The BEST anime that you will ever watch. Better than hentai. The characters are stuck In a VR game. If they die In The game, they die in real life too.

REALLY FUCKING INTENSE VR CHAT

An Anime about being stuck in virtual reality. If you die in the game you die irl. Gained popularity in 2012 and finished its second season in 2014.

Sword Art Online is an Anime (Japanese Cartoon) made by Aniplex USA and A1 Pictures. Originating from a manga of the same name written by Reki Kawahara, it follows the story of Kirito, a huge video game fan, mainly in the MMO genre. During his time, the video game community has changed with the appearance of Virtual Reality Nervegear. Kirito uses the Nervegear to jump into the first MMO for the system, Sword Art Online, or SAO. Shortly after entering, all 6,000 players in the game are trapped inside by the game's creator, Akihiko Kayaba. They are stuck until the game's 100 floors are cleared, and if anyone dies in-game, the Nervegear will malfunction, killing the real person. Kirito must then lead his friends and fellow gamers to escape the cursed world, and get back to reality. Many subplots have followed the main arc. It is currently in its 2nd season, and a movie is in the works.

One of my favorite anime's that ALWAYS gets crapped on by all these dumb hatters who spend their days sitting on couch getting fat and trolling on urban dictionary. *coughs* Anyways, its about a bunch of ppl who get trapped in an mmo vr video game and if you die in the game you die in real life and you have to beat the game to get out alive.

An anime that is so bad that boku no pico looks good if you compare them.(please watch SAO abridged )

Something Witty Entertainment's brilliant rewriting of Sword Art Online proper. It contains better pacing and characterization. The entirety of the player population are no longer absolute idiots, but just sort of idiots in comparison to most of the main cast. Best of all, it's absolutely hilarious.

An anime that aired in in Japan on July 7, 2012, and got its dubbed counterpart in July 27, 2013.
The anime consist of a main character named Kirito (that's what he's called usually) and the "side characters" of Asuna, Suguha (that spells incest...), Asuda (Sinon if you don't like her actual name), and a others (if counting all the "side" characters, there would be a lot). They take an adventure (for Season 1 ONLY, kind of) into SAO, a VR game, kind of, and they are trapped there, and if one died, they died in real life, because the NerveGear (the headset used) sent microwaves to their brains, frying them. It's quite the plot.
People give the anime a lot of crap, being that its not "really" a video game and so on and so forth. But the anime is decent if someone has the interest, and not a lot of people do... either way, the anime still has some potential.
