The most prominent combat-based game is Ordinal Scale, in which a player's abilities are ranked by ordinal numbers.

Asuna, Lisbeth and Silica encourage Kirito to play Bone upon hearing that Aincrad bosses have appeared. Kirito joins Asuna and Klein in a boss fight confronting Kagachi the Samurai Lord at Akihabara, where the game'southward mascot, AI idol singer Yuna, appears and gives players buff effects as she sings. Kirito fails to achieve anything due to lack of real earth physical strength and agility. Eiji, the number-two ranked histrion, aids the group in defeating the dominate. Earlier Asuna makes the killing blow, Eiji whispers the discussion "Switch," a game mechanic from SAO that she recognizes.

The adjacent night, Asuna joins Klein and his group for another dominate fight at Yoyogi Park while waiting for their last group member, unaware that he was injured by Eiji the night earlier. Asuna leaves Klein and his guild backside and proceeds to the fight against the Storm Griffin, which is again presided over by Yuna. Klein and his club are surprised by the sudden appearance of a second boss, Zanghi the Flame Caller, and shockingly supported by Eiji, who physically attacks and defeats Klein and his entire guild in the real world using superior reflexes and seemingly superhuman forcefulness. When Asuna returns to where she left them, Klein and his guild are nowhere to exist seen. The following morning, equally Kirito practices with Bone in Yoyogi Park, a girl he doesn't know appears in a white hood, mouths something wordlessly and points off into the distance earlier disappearing. A confused Kirito is surprised by Asuna who has arrived to take lunch with him. While eating together, Asuna theorizes that Eiji was a quondam member of the Knights of the Blood Oath named Nautilus, while Yui deduces that the spawn locations of the Aincrad bosses line up with the SAO dungeon maps. Noting the absence of Klein, Kirito tries to cheque up on him.

Asuna, Lisbeth and Silica join the boss fight against Strict Hermit at Yebisu Garden Place, where Yuna and Eiji appear again. At the aforementioned fourth dimension, Agil contacts Kirito and tells him that Klein has been hospitalized with a broken arm; Kirito, alarmed, rushes to protect Asuna and their friends. During the boss battle, a 2d boss, Dorz'l the Anarchy Drake, suddenly appears and fixates on Silica. Eiji blocks Silica's escape past pushing her into the path of a lethal boss assault, and Asuna is defeated while protecting her; an orangish orb materializes from Asuna and is chop-chop collected by i of the Os drones. Afterward the battle, Asuna begins to suffer retentiveness loss, and goes to the hospital for exam.

Asuna learns that the Augma device scanned her brain specifically for SAO memories and that the memory loss could worsen. After Asuna's status worsens, Kirito gains a stiff resolve to solve the mystery. Kirito visits Klein in the hospital and confirms that Klein's SAO memories are also missing. Kirito goes to the Dire Tusk boss battle at Tokyo Dome City looking for Eiji, where he is joined by Sinon; although he is concerned for her safe, Sinon reminds Kirito that she is not an SAO survivor. During the boss battle, an SAO survivor is defeated and Kirito witnesses a glowing memory orb being collected by an Os drone.

After the battle, Kirito is frustrated that Eiji did not show up, but meets the hooded girl a third time, who repeats her actions from before. Kirito and Yui figure out that she is pointing towards Touto Technical Academy.

Kirito goes to the university and meets Professor Tetsuhiro Shigemura, who developed Augma. Shigemura refuses to respond any questions. Before leaving, Kirito notices on Shigemura's desk a picture of a girl who resembles Yuna. Kirito talks to Seijirō Kikuoka, who informs him that Shigemura's girl, Yuna, died in SAO. Kirito warns Kikuoka that the memory loss may exist affecting other SAO survivors playing OS. Visiting Asuna's home, Kirito promises Asuna that he will go her memories back. While searching for clues, Kirito encounters the hooded girl nevertheless again, who he confirms is Yuna. When she tells him his rank is too depression, Kirito decides to level upwardly hardcore, recklessly chain-soloing as many bosses equally he can, and improving his AR swordwork with help from Leafa.

Days subsequently, the Os players get together at the Tokyo National Stadium for Yuna's first live concert. In the lower levels, Kirito duels with Eiji, who claims he has a mode to return Asuna's memories. Subsequently Kirito defeats him, Eiji reveals that Shigemura has been harvesting memories of SAO players in an endeavor to reconstruct his lost daughter'due south soul and resurrect her as an AI; having SAO survivors full-bodied in one place is the final stage of the plan and Eiji believes he has won. Kirito rushes dorsum upstairs to warn everyone, calling Kikuoka on the mode. Kikuoka warns Kirito that all the memory harvesting drones scanning everyone at once could damage the players' brains, killing them like the NerveGear did in SAO.

As a horde of Aincrad bosses appear and terrorize the stadium, Kirito and Yuna join the battle. Yuna tells Kirito that the Augma has a hidden full-dive feature and he tin employ information technology to defeat SAO's 100th floor boss to stop the browse and save everyone. Before diving, Kirito gives Asuna an appointment ring. Inbound the Scarlet Palace of Floor 100, Kirito, Lisbeth, Silica, Agil, and Sinon face up the dominate. They are easily overwhelmed until Asuna, Leafa, Klein, and several other memorable players from ALO and GGO come to their aid. Yui restores their saved abilities from SAO, allowing anybody to defeat the dominate. The phonation of Akihiko Kayaba congratulates them on their victory and gives Kirito an extremely powerful sword as a advantage.

The group returns to the arena yet in full-dive where Kirito, now Bone's top-ranked player, effortlessly dispatches the bosses with his new sword. Meanwhile, in the real world, Kikuoka finds Shigemura in the abandoned server room of Argus (the defunct company that once ran SAO) and arrests him. The hooded Yuna restores the survivors' memories and fades out of existence since her existence was tied to that of the Floor 100 boss. After, Kirito and Asuna fulfill the hope they made to each other in Aincrad, to watch a meteor shower together. Asuna returns Kirito'due south hope ring so he can properly put it on her mitt this time, which he does.
