Kirito awakens in a vast, fantastical forest filled with towering trees. In his search for clues to the truth of his surroundings, he encounters a young boy who seems to know him. He ought to be a simple NPC, but the depth of his emotions seem no different than a human. As they search for the boy's parents, Kirito finds a peculiar memory returning to him. A memory from his own childhood, of this boy and a girl, too, with golden hair, and a name he should have never forgotten - Alice.

Is SAO what did you really expect?

Alicization ultimately fails to capitalize on any of its initial setup leading to a boring, half baked conclusion.

Great potential but. Same old SAO.

Vindication for a much-maligned series arrives like a knight in shining armor.

SAO's best, finally grasping the potential that was lacking in its previous seasons while adding more.
