The November issue of Kadokawa’s Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine revealed on Monday that Reki Kawahara’s Sword Art Online light novels are inspiring a new manga adaptation that will launch in the magazine’s next issue on October 27.
While the premise is similar to the concept of the Sword Art Online: Progressive novels, the magazine only notes that the manga is based on the original Sword Art Online novels.
Reki Kawahara’s Sword Art Online: Progressive novels began in 2012 as a revised retelling of Kawahara’s original Sword Art Online novels.
Sword Art Online: Progressive is inspiring an anime film adaptation titled Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night.
