The folks at Yen Press are digging a bit further into this franchise as they’ve picked up another release that will make its debut in October 2020 with Sword Art Online Progressive Transient Barcarolle. The manga is an adaptation of the story from the novel by Reki Kawahara that has Shiomi Miyoshi adapting it and illustrating it. It was serialized in Dengeki G’s Magazine beginning in 2018 and ran for two volumes to completion.
Plot Concept: Though the fourth floor of Aincrad was supposed to be only a dreary, dried up riverbed, it’s been transformed into a lattice of countless canals! Kirito and Asuna will need a gondola if they want to continue forward…
Sword Art Online Progressive Transient Barcarolle is a continuation of the manga adaptation of Sword Art Online Progressive, a spin-off of the original light novels that tell the untold stories taking place in the first two years of the characters’ time trapped in the game world.
