Look at it this way: a chronological adaptation allows the relationships to grow better.
It's the difference between watching Season 1 of Leverage according to broadcast (all over the place) and DVD (chronological) order, as with the 2nd you get to see the team slowly working together and gelling into the team they are. To an extent, while I liked volume one, a number of things, particularly Kirito and Asuna's relationship, did have a feeling of sorta coming outta nowhere, though it did establish that they'd have been friends for a long time. I'd rather have a chronological adaptation because 1) it makes sense to new viewers and 2) we can actually see the relationship unfold and see them both defrost. Also, I'm betting that the first 3 quarters of the series will cover SAO, in all of the sidestories - OP shows a scene from Aria in the Starless Night, and we've already seen Scilica, Lizbeth and Sachi - and then the last 8 episodes will cover Fairy Dance, given what I've seen of the cast list on ANN. Volume One is a good story, but it isn't perfect, because the relationship upgrade seems like it's the result of a near-death experience. It's only after reading the sidestories that it becomes less so, and more clear that it's a friendship of mutual defrosting that evolved into something more. Volume 1 relationship by itself is like an rifle with iron sights. Volume 1 with sidestories is like an ACR with fixed stock, EO Tech sights, underbarrel grenade launcher, side rail laser aiming module and Surefire taclight, and using PMags instead of standard magazines. Sorry. Been playing Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. |

That scene, and those that prelude are going to be quite heart wrenching. x: |
Well still.
And while it's not the only reason for my disappointment, my heart does cry largely because of the effective neutralization of volume 1's rule-breaker. :( And a little head smashing with the crying. :bash: |

Dude, just enjoy the anime on it's own merits. You'll feel a lot happier that way. ;D

Seems that from judging the opening we will see the murder case side story too,

Certainly a legitimate concern, but then it depends on whether/how they adapt that particular story arc. |
The op implies that Kirito and Asuna take down the level 74 boss together, instead of him solo.
If this is the case, i approve. Needs more battle couple. |

Also, regarding the plot's order, it will most likely be chronological. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Scilica, Lizbet and Sachi's side stories can be covered by an episode each. Well, for now, I'll just look forward to ep 2 :3 Quote:

Most likely they will take that 1 episode each, but I'd say they will adapt that one novel 1 chapter to those, which explains those 4 "groups", as Scilica story pretty much needs it in my option, maybe even Sachi one too.
