Set two months after players were trapped inside of the VMMORPG Sword Art Online, Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Scherzo of Deep Night has Asuna Yuuki (CV: Haruka Tomatsu – Elf in Uncle from Another World) and Kazuto “Kirito, The Black Swordsman, Beater, Kazu” Kirigaya (CV: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka – Inosuke Hashibira in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) raiding for treasures in the massive mazelike ruin on Aincrad’s fifth floor.
With the assistance of the latest addition to their party the female Information Broker Argo (CV: Shiori Izawa – Pochita in Chainsaw Man), clearing the quests and side quests on the fourth and ultimately the fifth floors should be a snap.
