Not necessarily a reimagining, but a premise. A concept.

Is that rework anything like full metal alchemist Vs. FMA brotherhood? Like starts the same but then goes somewhere else?

I already have a copy of the whole SAO so I’ll probably still watch it (I’ve watched some pretty questionable stuff all the way through just because I started it..) but if it’s genuinely worth watching both, even if just for the sake of comparison, I’ll try to find a copy.

Brotherhood is an official anime. SAO abridged is a fan made parody on YouTube. it recuts and redubs but that's it. And its purpose isn't to tell the whole SAO story, it's to make gags. It just inadvertently made a better story than SAO itself, mostly by changing certain characters motivations

Edit: oh and if you're intent on watching the full version at all, watch it before the abridged

SAO abridged is a fan parody that you can find on YouTube, but as said before me, it has a way better storyline than the original and the production quality is incredible for a fan project.

The only downside is that the team can make approximately one episode per year.
