The Progressiv Series is the entire Aincrad Arc Overworked and from the Synopsis i read so far, its different since Asuna will stay with Kirito after the Floor 1 Fight ( in the Novels and Anime they Part Ways after they beat the Cobold Boss and only see each other occasionally for around 1 1/2 Years then on Meetings for Bossfights, but that was all, while in the Progressiv Series, they stay together and travel Floor 2 and above) Also, the Progressiv Series isnt very far. Since the Author wrote the first Volume back in 2012, he released 6 Volumes. In those 6 Volumes he wrote about the " Adventures" Kirito and Asuna had from Floor 1 to Floor 6. So you can read those Things i post without Problems, since its not sure what else will be changed in the Future and even then, the Author will likely concentrate first on Finishing the SAO Main Story ( he is on his Last Arc in the Main Story, the Unital Ring Arc) before he concentrates on the Progressiv Series.

2020-11-08 13:25:07 +0000 UTCEpisode 8, Adaption Notes ---In the novel, when Asuna enters Agil's shop, she has two escorts (one is Kuradeel, the other is unnamed). In the Anime, only Kuradeel is her escort. ---Kirito only showed surprise when Asuna said that she had completed her Cooking skill in the anime. In the novel, Kirito thought that she was an idiot for spending so much time leveling up a skill that was not important for a fighter, as maxing a skill was an extremely tedious task. ---In the novel, Kuradeel did not take out a second weapon when dueling with Kirito and also made a comment of wanting to kill Kirito. Kuradeel also said "I resign." to end the duel. ---In the novel, Kuradeel used a Teleport Crystal to return to Granzam, while in the anime, he used the Teleport Gate. ---Kirito and Asuna's near encounter with the Battalion from «The Army» along the way to the dungeon was omitted.

2020-11-06 20:56:05 +0000 UTCEpisode 7, Adaption Notes Trivia: ---When Kirito and Lisbeth fall into the dragons' den, according to the Light Novel, Kirito used his sword to decrease the speed of their fall and rotated to be the one at the bottom to take most of the fall damage. They hit the ground with enough impact to put Kirito's HP into the red zone and bring Lisbeth's HP down to half, but they do not make a hole in the snow. Later, when Kirito attempts to run up the wall, he doesn't even get close enough to see the top, but when he falls he makes a knee-deep, Kirito shaped, hole in the ground. ---After they get out of dragon's hole, although they seem to be falling from a high place that would cause their HP reduced to zero once they land, but as it is a special event in a quest, thus their HP are protected in the process ---In the novel, Lisbeth was sleeping in her rocking chair in her shop's terrace when Kirito came to the shop, as she had already finished forging swords for that day. In the anime however, she is still forging a sword for her day's orders. ---In the novel, Lisbeth hired a NPC to watch the shop while she and Kirito went to get the ingot from the Frost Dragon. The NPC is not mentioned nor seen in the anime. ---In the novel, the ingot was only obtainable after starting a quest and one of the popular speculation about the requirement to obtain the crystal was that a master smith was required to be part of the party for the crystal to drop. In the anime, this speculation is treated as a fact and is rephrased to that the item would only spawn with a master smith nearby. The activation part of the quest was completely excluded: listening to a village elder and picking up the mention of a crystal-eating dragon in the NPC's life story. ---In the novel, Kirito gave Lisbeth his coat while they were still in the hamlet where they had to accept the quest. In the anime, as the hamlet part was omitted, he gives her the coat while climbing the mountain. ---In the novel, Kirito and Lisbeth actually peer down the pitfall-trap of a dragon nest before battling the dragon. ---In the novel, Kirito used «Spinning Shield» to deflect the Frost Dragon's breath attack, while in the anime, Kirito uses an unknown 1-hit Sword Skill, the execution of which is not shown. ---In the novel, when Kirito and Lisbeth were falling into the nest, Kirito actually tried to stop their speed of descent by jamming his sword into the wall. ---In the novel, before they went to sleep, Kirito and Lisbeth first ate soup and then Kirito told Lisbeth about some of his adventures. This is omitted in the anime. ---In the novel, when Lisbeth woke up, Kirito was making tea and Kirito thought of the idea of digging the ground while they were chatting. ---In the novel, Kirito rather escaped the nest by holding onto the Frost Dragon's tail, not by using Elucidator as a handhold as the dragon sailed out of its nest. ---Although the monster Frost Bone is mentioned in the novel, they do not appear in the anime. ---In the novel, Lisbeth does not hint that they left Kirito's sleeping bags and lantern in the dragon's nest. Kirito brushes it aside, saying that they left it there for the other players that would fall inside. ---In the novel, after giving Kirito the Dark Repusler, Lisbeth asked why Kirito needed a second sword with similar stats to his Elucidator, and he replied by showing her a New "Special" skill and requested her to keep it a secret. This is omitted in the anime. ---In the novel, Lisbeth takes Asuna to a small sidewalk cafe to chat, instead of doing so within her shop, after Asuna asks whether Kirito had said anything rude. ---In the anime, when Kirito chases after Lisbeth from the shop, he doesn't mention about his guilt experience with his former guild, the «Moonlit Black Cats», while comforting her with gratitude.

2020-11-06 20:55:34 +0000 UTCEpisode 6, Adaption Notes ( left out or Changed Things compared to the Light Novel) ---In the novel, Asuna and Kirito go over to the 20th Floor in an attempt to ambush Grimlock at an Non-Player Character (NPC) restaurant that he apparently likes, but in the anime, they just sit on a bench to have dinner. ---In the novel, Schmitt was asked to write down the names of all Golden Apple members and he gives the parchment with the names to Kirito. While waiting for Grimlock on the 20th Floor, Kirito reads the parchment and notices that Caynz's name is romanized as Caynz, instead of Kains, which clues him in that the murder was a hoax. In the anime however, Kirito deduces the truth through his sharp intuition after seeing his sandwich burst due to hitting the ground with low durability. ---Schmitt's past is not revealed in the anime. In the novel, it states that he was a sportsman. ---The Algade House does not appear in the anime, and so Heathcliff does not make an appearance. In the novel, Kirito and Asuna meet with him and ask him if murders in safe areas were possible. In the anime, Kirito makes his own conclusions while walking around Marten. ---In the novel, Kirito took several precautions in case he would be attacked by the Laughing Coffin members by drinking an anti-poison potion and having multiple healing crystals on him. In the anime, this is omitted. ---Schmitt's paralysis status seems to wear off after the Laughing Coffin members leave in the anime. In the novel, Kirito gives Schmitt an anti-poison potion instead. ---In the anime, after the ghost talks to Schmitt, the latter looks around and finds a rabbit, before turning around to see the "ghost". In the novel, Schmitt sees the "ghost" after the "ghost" talks to him. ---Kirito does not mention that Caynz had a second teleportation crystal to pretend as if he was dying in the anime. In the novel, he mentions that he must have stabbed himself outside the safe area, and teleported back into the city to look as if someone had killed him. ---In the anime, when Kirito chases the Laughing Coffin away, he states that he has reinforcements arriving soon. In the novel, after they leave he sends a message to Klein stating that they got away. ---The dialogue between the Laughing Coffin members and Kirito is much shorter in the anime than the one in the light novel. When Kirito comes to rescue Yolko, Caynz and Schmitt, the leader, PoH, does not recognize Kirito in the anime, but in the novel, PoH remembers Kirito and that they had met somewhere before. ---XaXa's threat to Kirito that he would chase him by riding a horse was omitted. ---The Laughing Coffin members do not seem to recognize Schmitt as the leader/sub-leader of the DDA in the anime. Instead, they call him a "bigshot" due to his membership in the DDA. ---In the novel, Grimlock denied his guilt of having Griselda murdered at first, saying that Griselda must have tried the ring on which is why he did not receive the ring himself after she was killed and only admitted his guilt after Yolko unearthed an «Eternal Storage Trinket» with Griselda's seal of the guild leader and her marriage rings, proving that Griselda could not have tried the ring on. ---Though the light novel depicts Kirito in his Blackwyrm Coat, Kirito wears a different, unnamed coat in the anime. ---In the novel, Asuna was the one to detect Griselda's manifestation and alert Kirito to her presence. Additionally, Griselda's apparition appeared in the middle of the night rather than at sunrise. ---Asuna's and Kirito's promise to Griselda to carry on her will and free all the players by beating the game was omitted.

2020-11-06 20:48:04 +0000 UTCEpisode 5, Adaption Notes ( left out or Changed Things compared to the Light Novel) ---Asuna and Kirito's argument at the beginning of the episode originally came from the first material edition and ended in a duel between the two, which Kirito barely won by using a feint of seemingly dual wielding. Eventually, the Geocrawler field boss was killed by playing a lullaby to make it fall asleep, instead of sacrificing the NPCs of the town. ---In the novel, the events of the Murder Case began on April 22, 2024, while in the anime it was April 11, 2024. ---In the light novel, Kirito, Asuna and Agil journey to the 1st Floor, where they confirm the death of the victim via the «Monument of Life» (which is later revealed to be a player whose name is similar in pronunciation to the alleged victim). ---In the light novel, Asuna was wearing casual clothes tailored by Ashley in the inn, before changing into her guild attire after Kirito complimented her looks too late. ---In the novel, Schmitt was the one who requested a meeting with Yolko, while in the anime, Yolko requests for a meeting with Schmitt. ---Asuna and Kirito's meal and conversation with Heathcliff is omitted in the anime. ---In the light novel, the Guilty Thorn was taken by Schmitt of the Divine Dragon Alliance from Kirito on the 48th Floor when Kirito was on his way to his accommodation at the time there, instead of being left with Agil for safekeeping. ---In the light novel, Kirito goes outside the Area and uses a throwing pick to test whether it is possible for piercing damage to harm a player within the Area and Asuna does not stop him from testing it, while in the anime he tries to do it with the Guilty Thorn at Agil's shop and he is stopped by Asuna. ---Though the Light Novel depicts Kirito in his Blackwyrm Coat and Asuna in her KoB uniform, the anime depicts them in different equipment.
