In Sword Art Online, Link Start is the command used to begin a full dive with the NerveGear headset, transporting a player into a virtual world. Kirito, the series' main protagonist, uses it as he enters games such as Aincrad, and the phrase quickly became one of the franchise's most recognisable cues. Anime edits, gaming videos, and VR-themed memes helped it spread beyond the show, where it now works as shorthand for logging in, starting a match, or entering another world.

The Link Start clip is the short activation cue from Sword Art Online, delivered in Kirito's voice as he begins a full dive. It is crisp, urgent, and commanding, with a rising sense of anticipation that makes the next scene feel larger than life. In just over a second, it signals that reality is switching off and a virtual world is switching on, which is why it lands so well as a transition.
