Players wake up in Sword Art Online in the Town of Beginnings having no memory whats so ever. Kirito, one of the swordsman to wake up wasn't sure how to feel about this whole situation but everything felt familiar. It felt like this was where he belonged. Will players learn to survive this new world or will they try to live in it?

After the disastrous 25th floor boss raid, Heathcliff invites Asuna to be his Vice-Commander of the Knights of The Blood, yet she turns his offer down in favour of sticking with Kirito.

Three friends, a straight-A student, her brother the boxing enthusiast, and their friend the shy swimmer are trapped within Sword Art Online and must try to survive. They try to make the best of a bad situation, but it's not easy when one mistake can kill you, or worse, those you care about. Mostly OCs but Idk maybe I'll include canon characters occasionally. I hope you enjoy!

Takes place after the events of Fatal Bullet: Dissonance of the Nexus and about a year or two after the War of Underworld Arc; The hero and his friends are resting after their many events that occurred in Gun Gale Online. Life was going good for him. Read about his many adventures with his friends.

Liminality: a state of "between", when one is no longer what they used to be, but not yet something new. After the events of the Seventh Floor, Kirito is even more adrift than ever, no longer a normal player, alone in his new status. Royal Guard Kizmel travels with the players, but not one of them. Asuna acts to hold it all together. Warning: Major Progressive 8 spoilers!

Tired of spending a life studying to reach an empty future, Asuna enters Sword Art Online, a world of swords and airships, to gain some measure of freedom. When she is trapped, she throws herself into building a new life for herself, as far from what her parents intended as she can. Meeting a dark swordsman sets her on a new course, in Aincrad's skies...

Kiriko was definitely a boy. He just... looked like a girl, acted like a girl from time to time, and knew a lot of girl things. She — HE was definitely not a girl, despite all his quirks. Now if only Eugeo could convince both himself and the people around them of just that. (Crack)

"You know, Onii-chan, I had another dream last night. In my dream, there was a floating castle in the sky..." In which Akihiko Kayaba's dream was not his own, and the Death Game was instigated by a monster born out of that dream.

Kirito is happily soaking up the warm sunshine outside his house. After spending so much time fighting in the virtual world, he is happy to relax in the real world. However, Leafa has something planned for her cousin’s lazy day…

This is a story of how I would've made Sword Art Online and the characters/plot I would add or take away to mold the story into how I like it

Eltelm is a German player who understands only a few words of Japanese or English. Not that he cared much when a started playing SAO. But when the game becomes a death trap he'll have to care, as he becomes isolated by the language barrier. He might be talented with a sword, but can his heart and mind survive the struggles ahead? (Being Rewritten, Last Update: Chapter 3)

Things went a little differently on that first day of the death game. Before Kayaba's announcement, Kirito had PKed another player. An action that permanently changed his cursor to orange. Now he's a criminal. The other players will hunt him down for that. The NPCs will refuse him service. He won't be able to trade with anyone anymore. He was completely alone now. Slight AU.

This is a story outlining a sort of "alternative universe" for SAO. This story outlines the demons the Shino is still grappling with, and it is through the love and support of another that she is able to move forward. More stories in this universe to come.

As an AI, Yui's purpose in Sword Art Online had been solely to monitor players suffering with mental health issues. She was never meant to become attached to any of them, but when some certain players entered her programmed life, they became very important to her - and now she wants to take the time to make it clear just how much she loves them…

After a tragedy Kazuto has the chance to go back and relive his life from the most important point. And change history for the better. And hopefully get the happy life he deserves… T for now will change to M later. ( bad summary better story inside)

Alternate universe story. No science fiction, no virtual reality games. Kirito is just a normal, teenage boy who finds himself in a school full of hotties and slowly builds his harem. My first harem fic is a masterpiece to behold. Starts out as T rated in the first chapter, but that will change in the second one!

A year has passed ever since the SAO incident was mysteriously resolved on December 25th, 2023. Despite travelling to other worlds, Kirito has never felt true happiness again ever since that day. However, a fateful encounter leads him to someone who understands the pain he feels. Kirito x Yuuki, kiriuuki, KiriYuuki

What if the first attempt to escape the first floor failed? Heroes die, survivors carry on and attempt to clear the game. Will feature characters from various SAO series and will not follow canon.

The madman did it. He really trapped us all in here like mice in a maze. And all for his own amusement. He wants everyone to clear the game? Then we're gonna do just that. And hopefully, we won't have to go it alone.

After the brutal 25th Floor Boss Raid, Asuna has left Kirito's side to join the Knights of Blood. With his partner gone, Kirito resigns himself to returning to the life of a solo player-until a familiar face from the lower floors unexpectedly reenters his life. The strangely-human NPC Kizmel, despite her quest being over, has returned to his side... Kirito/Kizmel.

A chance encounter on day one finds Kirito in a party, and slowly discovers that he was a natural born leader. The bonds they share are strong, but will it eventually break?

After Asuna, Kirito, and Kizmel depart the fourth floor of Aincrad for the final time, they leave behind Yofel Castle, and the burgeoning AI of one Viscount Leyshren Zed Yofilis. Left with an odd feeling of emptiness after the departure of the trio, Leyshren sets out on his own journey to discover why both he, and the world he lives in, seem to be changing so drastically.

The timeline is set after the split of Kirito and Asuna's temporary party, and Asuna just joined her guild. Kirisuna, but it's more like a pre-HET. Spoilers for Progressive Series.
