Once I've seen this series, I realized that there are really uncountable possibilities with VR.
I plumped into the world of VR!
On the other hand, if VR is going to a scale like it is shown in this anime where you not only "see" into the world with your eyes as a medium, rather your brain is the medium and you find yourself in a state of sleep and you "dream" all this - what if something like in SAO happen, where you can't log off anymore?
And I'm pretty sure that these times will come.
(And I kinda can't wait for them - even with these risks :P)
Cheers!

At the risk of sounding incredibly stupid, I'm going to continue =/ If the stupidity of this post is stellar you may want to QFT as I'll end up deleting it.
How would you even intercept brain signals, chemical or electric. Electrons can interact with photons when the wavelength is short enough (high frequency), I don't know how high but let's take the anime at it's word and assume they did their research and go with microwaves. I don't fancy cooking my brain, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_burn
[Though there's a good chance this post will make it look as though I already have]
We also have molecular machines, but they're in their infancy. I wouldn't be surprised though if in 50-100 years, along with a better understanding of the brain, if they were small enough and smart enough of intercepting brain signals. :shock:

(Also let me play capt obvious, yes I've seen and love the show)

Thank you for the link to the translated books, I've been wanting to read them for a while 🙂 I stayed up till 6 am watching all the episodes when I first found SAO.

Except for the part where it was already done 10 years ago.

You should be more excited for the lifetime we're living in. 😄
