SAOはアニメからはいったくちだけど、当時にこの原作を読んでいたらもっともっと楽しめたでしょうね。読了後に、もう一度、アニメが観たくなりました。よし、週末にまとめてマラソン鑑賞だ。

ラノベの教養(?)を高めるために、歴史上最も有名なラノベの一つであるこの作品を読んでみました。テンプレ主人公として有名なキリトさんの言動には確かに「あのさあ・・・」と思うところもなきにしもあらずですが、そんなことよりも、文章のうまさにびっくりしました。
・ルビを多用することで難しい漢字もためらいなく使い
・てにをは、句読点が異常に的確
・どこをとっても、一度も目が迷うことなく上から下へ読んでいける(語の修飾関係が完璧に明確)
これは日本作家史上でも稀な高みに達していると思います。癖のない文体なので、あまり名文家とはみなされないかもしれませんが、これはすごいことです。自分の文章修行のためだけにも全巻読み込む価値があると思いました。

真ヒロインであるサチさんが1ページくらいしか出てこないことに驚きました。アニメでのあの活躍は何だったのかと思うほどです。
またリズベットさんに至っては影も形もありませんでした。もう何もかも信じられない感じです…
アニメの1期分が1冊になっているので内容が濃くなっている感じです。
物語の内容は覚えていましたが面白かったです。

すごくお気に入りの1冊です。アインクラッド編、最初に読んだ時の衝撃が忘れられないです。仮想の世界に閉じ込められ、デスゲームと化した世界で、生き抜いていく生き様がかっこいいと思いました。

やばい感動がやばいやばい。読み終わったこの感覚、もう何ものにも替えがたい。SFでありながら純愛のストーリー。ネットゲームを扱った作品でありながら、これが世に出たということがもう本当にとてもとても嬉しい。ウェブ小説の枠を超えて、SFとしても、純文学としても素晴らしい。
