Arata Yamato was a genius since birth, ostracizing himself from everyone around him for the sake of pursuing his passions with greater fervor. However, when he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and later lay in his deathbed, with no friends or family to speak of, he felt great regret. So what if he had boundless wealth? So what if he contributed to humanity’s future? So what if he had achieved what others could only dream of? He was lonely, and he still died like most others do- regretting the decisions he had made and wondering how he could have done better.
Imagine his surprise when upon his death, God proposed a deal to send him to another world for another shot at life for the low price of killing another person?
Or when he found out that world was from a heavily controversial animated Japanese series, Sword Art Online?
Or even more so when he finds upon entering the world that it may not be the same one he remembered?
With cosmic powers orchestrating events behind the scenes, some in his favor and others not, how will Arata form any of the relationships he regretted not forming in his past life?
Now having to juggle the fixing of not just his problems, but those of a literal god as well, Arata sure had his hands full, that’s for sure.
