Kayaba, Akihiko
Seiyuu / Dub
Summary
Akihiko Kayaba serves as both the creator and director of the Nerve Gear and the virtual reality world Sword Art Online. He ensnares every player within the game by utilizing the Nerve Gear to halt all signals sent to the users' bodies. This mechanism ensures that any attempt to remove the device, a prolonged power outage, or death within the game results in the literal death of the player. His primary motivation for this trap is to observe the consequences and behaviors that emerge after locking them inside.
