Sword Art Online Season 4 Dub Release Date Funimation
Okay, let's talk Sword Art Online. Specifically, Season 4's dub. Still waiting? Yeah, me too. It feels like we've been stuck in Aincrad forever.
Where's the SAO Season 4 Dub, Funimation?!
Seriously, Funimation (now Crunchyroll, technically), what's the hold up? Are they lost in the Underworld? Maybe Kirito's internet connection is acting up again.
We're all refreshing the page, right? Constantly checking for updates. It's become a daily ritual, like brushing my teeth (except way more stressful).
Must Read
My Unpopular Opinion (Maybe?)
Here's the thing. I actually... enjoy waiting for the dub. Don't @ me! I know, I know, it sounds crazy.
Hear me out. The anticipation builds the hype. It's like waiting for Christmas, but with more swords and less eggnog.
Plus, it gives me time to rewatch previous seasons. You know, to "refresh my memory." (Okay, fine, I just really like Sword Art Online.)
But, let's be real, the wait is getting a little long. We need our dose of Bryce Papenbrook as Kirito, stat! It's essential for survival. I'm being dramatic, but only a little.
I bet the voice actors are just as eager as we are. They're probably practicing their lines in the mirror, perfecting that "Starburst Stream!" scream.
The Theories (Because We Need Something to Do)
So, why the delay? The internet is buzzing with theories. Maybe they're adding extra scenes? Perhaps they're perfecting every single line of dialogue?
Or maybe, just maybe, someone accidentally unplugged the server. Hey, it could happen! These things are surprisingly fragile.
My personal theory? Asuna is holding it hostage. She wants Kirito all to herself. Can't say I blame her, honestly. He is pretty dreamy, even in pixel form.
What Can We Do? (Besides Refreshing the Page)
Okay, so patience is a virtue. We get it. But even virtues have their limits. What can we, the loyal fans, do in the meantime?
Rewatch the sub? Sure, if you're into that sort of thing. (No judgment, but I prefer the dub. There, I said it!).
Read the light novels? Absolutely! Immerse yourself in the world of Sword Art Online. Just don't blame me if you start speaking in game commands.
Write fan fiction? Now we're talking! Unleash your creativity and imagine what happens after the dub is finally released.
Or, you know, we could just keep tweeting at Crunchyroll. Politely, of course. Maybe a little "Sword Art Online Season 4 Dub when?" never hurt anyone.
The Bottom Line
Look, we all love Sword Art Online. And we all want to see Season 4 dubbed as soon as possible.
Let's just hope Funimation/Crunchyroll knows we're waiting. And that they're not stuck in some virtual reality game themselves.
Until then, I'll be here, hitting refresh. And maybe, just maybe, starting another rewatch of Season 1. You know, for research purposes.
Maybe one day we'll find official release date and the long wait will finally be over.
Until then, happy watching (of the old seasons)!
