My girlfriend won me this awesome pirate Sinon in an ichiban kuji today.

[If You Were Here] (old name [32/33]) is an AU series of short stories written & illustrated by SAO’s author Kawahara Reki himself under the pen name Kunori Fumio. It’s published as part of the Material Edition series starting from Material Edition 28. The story will be bundled as a bonus novel in Alicization BD vol 8 which will be released in Aug 28th 2019, the novel will double the content of ME 28/29 (with hopefully a conclusion).

This is an IF AU story when the assault incident by Raios & Humbert didn’t happen, and Kirito & Eugeo are on the road of becoming Integrity Knights the normal way like they originally planned. 32 & 33 are Eugeo & Kirito’s Synthesis numbers respectively.

I’ll keep this post as an update post for the English translations/ spoilers posts of this series.

Material Edition 28

As followed I will delete the ME 29 spoilers post because me and my Chinese studying friend seemed to mix up some dialogues and details between Kirito and Eugeo (but I can’t blame my friend because they’re not into SAO and I already asked too much of them, also thanks to this I can single out which Japanese and Chinese spoiler sources to trust).

By all means please enjoy the translation.
