One awesome Sword Art Online cosplay has honored Alice’s golden armor from Sword Art Online: Alicization! The Alicization arc was the longest of Reki Kawahara’s original light novel series to date, and this was reflected with the anime’s third season being the longest to date as well. Extended over four different cours of episodes, Alicization was split into two major sagas that saw Kirito unite his efforts with Eugeo in a new virtual world in order to save their former childhood friend in the underworld, Alice, who had become their strongest opposing force.

Alice is such a key part of the Sword Art Online franchise as of the end of third season of the series, there’s a good chance that she’ll be integral to whatever plans there are next for the series as well. She along with Kirito and Asuna were part of the massive cliffhanger at the end of the season that teased we would eventually get to see a huge war across multiple dimensions and planets at some wild point in the future of the underworld. It’s going to be a while before we get to see Alice in action again, however.
The next entry of Sword Art Online‘s anime franchise will be going back to its roots as it explores Kirito and Asuna through the Aincrad arc with a new kind of focus. This feature film, Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night, is gearing up to premiere in Japan on October 30th and hit theaters worldwide at a later date. But this exploration backward will mean its future stories will be held back for a little bit longer.
