Synopsis

Overweight, bullied, and cripplingly insecure, middle school student Haruyuki Arita seeks solace from harsh reality by playing virtual squash on his personal Neuro-Linker network. His incredible virtual reflexes catch the attention of Kuroyukihime, the school beloved student council vice president. She introduces Haruyuki to Brain Burst, a mysterious secret augmented reality fighting game that accelerates human cognitive perception a thousandfold, stopping time in the physical world. Assuming the persona of the nimble Silver Crow, Haruyuki fights across the accelerated battlefield to help Kuroyukihime defeat the Six Kings of Pure Color and reach Level 10.

⚠ Background — may contain spoilers
Adapted from the hit science-fiction light novel series written by Reki Kawahara and illustrated by HiMA, *Accel World* was produced by studio Sunrise and directed by Masakazu Obara, airing for twenty-four episodes in 2012. Sharing a universe with Kawahara's global phenomenon *Sword Art Online*, the anime stood out for its unique protagonist design, compelling competitive mechanics, and thrilling aerial combat set pieces.
