To be exact, the premiere date is locked for November 7. There is no word on the exact time this first episode will debut, but fans can expect it to be fairly late. Toonami comes on after Adult Swim wraps its primetime titles, so Sword Art Online will certainly air closer to midnight.
If you want to catch up with the anime before this dub debut, you can catch it on Crunchyroll as well as other streaming platforms. Digital versions of Sword Art Online are also available through online retailers such as iTunes and Amazon. Sword Art Online was originally created by Reki Kawahara with illustrations provided by abec for Dengeki Bunko line in 2009. The series follows a boy named Kirito after he and thousands of gamers get trapped in a virtual reality video game. The gamers must band together to defeat the game’s final level to escape, but Kirito and his guild learn there is more behind this tech than they were originally told
