Original light novel series author Reki Kawahara ( Sword Art Online ) wrote the story for the film. The staff that returned from the television anime included:

Original Creator: Reki Kawahara

Duel Avatar Design/Action Director: Yousuke Kabashima

Reki Kawahara's Accel World light novel series launched in 2009, and Kadokawa published the 22nd volume last November. Yen Press is publishing the light novel series in English, and it shipped the 13th volume on March 20. The novels inspired a 24-episode television anime that premiered in 2012, and Viz Media streamed the series on Hulu as it aired in Japan. Viz Media released the series on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in 2013. The novels also inspired a manga by Hiroyuki Aigamo that launched in Kadokawa's Dengeki Bunko Magazine in 2010, and ended last June. Yen Press published the manga's seventh volume in March 2017.

The novels inspired two other manga: Akariryuryuu's Axel World and Ayato Sasakura's Accel World / Dural: Magisa Garden , the latter of which ended last June.
