I have been hearing a lot about this series called Sword Art Online and I just read the prologue of the novel which says and I quote: "Above, there were 100 floors stacked directly on top of each other; its sheer size was unbelievable." and it goes on to say and I quote: "Only one stairway linked each floor to another,..... However, once someone broke through and arrived at a city in a higher floor..... the lower floors would connect, making it possible for anyone to move freely through these levels." And it goes on to say how only 74 floors has been conquered out of the 100 floors. So is it possible that ToG pretty much only copied a concept but made it into there own version? As a HUGE fan of ToG I feel VERY betrayed after seeing a series which I think came out before this series which is actually very popular among my manga reading fans from all over the world.
