The verdict

Audiences rate it 6.5 out of 10 on TMDB across 55 votes — a solid score. It is not currently playing in Hong Kong cinemas. Category IIA · 83 minutes.

What it is about

In 2046, many aspects of life are carried out on a virtual network. No matter how advanced the time becomes, however, bullying never disappears. Haruyuki is one of the bullied students. However, one day he is contacted by Kuroyukihime, the most famous person in the school. "Wouldn't you like to 'accelerate' and go further ahead, boy?" Haruyuki is introduced to the "Accel World" and decides to fight as Kuroyukihime's knight.

What to expect

A side-story feature for the Accel World series, directed by Masakazu Obara and Ayako Kono. Haruyuki, a bullied student in a 2046 where life runs on a virtual network, is recruited by the school's star Kuroyukihime to fight in a hidden accelerated realm. The 83-minute runtime keeps the focus on virtual-reality mecha combat and the central pairing, with little hand-holding for newcomers. This is a Set B special screening, so expect a merchandise or bonus-content bundle on top of the ticket. Playing at four cinemas across three districts, with only four sessions in the next seven days. Tickets from HK$140. Original Japanese audio, English and Chinese subtitles. IIA certificate. Audience score sits at 6.5/10 from 55 votes.
