Gekijouban: Sword Art Online -Ordinal Scale-

Posted on September 27, 2017 3:47 pm by Offkorn Comment

The SAO incident, which trapped 10,000 people in a virtual reality game for several years, is in the past and the survivors are now moving on with their lives. Technology is advancing as well and a competitor to the Amusphere soon appears on the market, one which provides a similar experience using augmented reality. Marketed as being safer than the full-immersion required by VR, the Augma quickly amasses a large following… but as Kirito and his friends discover, this AR experience is far more dangerous than it appears.

An action-drama with a romance subplot that takes place after Sword Art Online II. While it provides a brief recap of previous events at the beginning, there isn’t much point in watching it if you haven’t at least seen Sword Art Online.

Here Comes the Three Angels: Tenshi no 3P!

Posted on September 27, 2017 1:11 pm by Offkorn Comment

For personal reasons Kyou Nukui spends most of his time at home composing music instead of going to school. This routine is interrupted by the arrival of an E-mail from an unknown sender who praises a recent composition and asks to meet up in person. Desperately wanting to have someone to talk about music with he agrees to the meeting, only to discover that the author of the request is a trio of orphans who want to hold a concert using his songs.

A music-themed comedy with secondary dramatic aspects, a minor romantic subplot, and a large amount of ecchi. While the ecchi is almost entirely loli-centric, the romance is between two high-schoolers.

A genius programmer and plastic model enthusiast, Tsubasa Kurata is killed in a traffic accident one night and finds himself suddenly reincarnated into a fantasy world filled with mecha and demonic creatures. The magic of this world is remarkably similar to programming code and with the knowledge from his previous life still intact he quickly advances toward his newfound goal of becoming a Silhouette Knight pilot.
