The SAO season 3 trailer and release date are finally here! So What's up guys
Foxen here! Tes the first trailer for season 3 is out but first off the exact
release date. Sword Art online is coming out fall season specifically October of this
year so just in time for Halloween and just think about that. That means that
right after my hero Acadamia season 3 is over you can enjoy SAO season 3. And I
did talk about this possibility my past video too, about them releasing this in the
fall season so SAO season 3 is technically part of two years 2018 and
2019. Anyway next up an official new visual has been released for season 3.
The visual released today shows Kirito and Eugeo on top of this weird
tree. Notably Eugeo was holding his signature sword. If you played any of the
SAO games you may be familiar with it and his abilities. Then near the top we
have the adorable young Alice. Wonder what she's up to?
As for the trailer breakdown link to that is below by the way. This one is
definitely the definition of a tease. Despite that there are some important
shots first off you have a shot of young Alice. They list her voice actress also
known as Darkness from Konosuba. It's then followed by this line in Japanese
it says "zutto matte itan da". Just picture that being a little more
feminine. This more or less translates into" I've been waiting forever".
A little after her you have the shot of Eugeo followed by a shot of Kirito.
For this one there's also a line afterwards in Japanese "Kimi ga yatte
kite kureru no o". Unfortunately this line seems to be cut
off which makes it a pain to translate. It's either saying you will come and do
it for me or you will come and wear for me. Take your pick and no spoilers this
is likely a reference to something in the visual and talk about the
Alicization, you see the official logo at the very end right under SAO. At the very
end you have everything piece together we have the new visual the fall release
date it does also highlight the four voice actors for the four main
characters in season three. That's Alice Eugeo, Kirito and Asuna. I've been seeing
so many questions about Asuna on season 3.
She is there but her role will be limited. So far even with the release date and
teaser trailer there still is no confirm length for season three. Is it gonna be 48
50 episodes or more than 60 episodes? Are they gonna split this in two parts? Or Are
they just gonna go all out and be crazy with this and do 48 or 60 episodes
in one go? They have confirmed recently that they do want to cover the whole
Alicization arc that means they have to do at least 50 episodes but anyway do
notice that one thing confirmed in the trailer is concerning almost everyone is
coming back for sao season 3 except this. Sao season 3 will have a
change of director. The one directing this is gonna be Manabu Ono. This guy
is most known for directing The regular magic high school, although more recently
he did the Asterisk War part 1 & 2. So this is pretty surprising and worrying.
The original director was Tomohito Itou. Itou had worked on all the SAO
anime projects so far that includes sao season 1 season 2 and the latest huge
hit the sao ordinal scale movie. He's even worked on a good chunk of Death
Note and for me personally I've actually met Itou at the A1 Studio
before in the past last year so it really is a shame that he won't be back
especially after the colossal hit that was the SAO ordinal scale movie. I really
really wish and hope that Ito at least has some involvement in this new project
but let me hear from you! How do you feel about this change in director? Anyway
with the trailer and release date confirmation this just feels a lot more
real now and by the way let me reconfirm that I will be doing full episodes
reviews for sao season 3 when it's out. Definitely look forward to that! But
anyway let me hear from you! Does this trailer and release date make you more
excited for sao season 3? How long should that make season 3? 50 episodes or
closer to 60? And what do you think about this change in director? Is anyone else
worried? If you enjoyed this and loved SAO definitely give it a colossal thumbs
up and subscribe you could enjoy 5 or more anime videos every week. This
includes SAO news breakdowns and also videos coming up on a new Sao GGO
spin-off. I may be doing some other general SAO related videos when that
sound so look forward to that and I'll see you guys later
