Description
Andrew Gilbert Mills, known by his in-game alias Agil, is a key supporting character in Sword Art Online the Movie: Ordinal Scale. A man of African-American heritage, Agil is a large, muscular, and bald individual with a distinctive brown goatee, a physical presence that is both imposing and reassuring. In the real world, he is the proud owner and manager of the Dicey Cafe, a coffee shop and bar located in the Okachimachi district of Tokyo. Before the events of the movie, Agil was one of the ten thousand players trapped inside the death game of Sword Art Online, where he survived as a high-level merchant and a formidable front-line warrior specializing in two-handed battle axes.
Agil’s personality is a blend of friendly approachability and steadfast reliability. He is consistently portrayed as a helpful and generous individual who looks out for the well-being of others. This trait was evident during the SAO incident, where he used the profits from his merchant shop to secretly support and assist lower-level players, and it continues to define his actions in the real world. He is a trusted and dependable friend to the main protagonist, Kirito, often serving as a source of calm advice and practical support. Despite his intimidating size, Agil is gentle-natured, though he possesses a sharp business sense and a no-nonsense attitude when the situation calls for it. His motivation throughout the Ordinal Scale incident, as in the rest of the series, is rooted in his loyalty to his friends. He is driven by a desire to protect his comrades and use his resources and experience to help them overcome whatever new threat emerges, refusing to stand idly by when they are in danger.
In the story of Ordinal Scale, Agil plays a crucial, if primarily supportive, role. As the new Augmented Reality game Ordinal Scale gains immense popularity, Agil, like many of his friends, becomes a player. He is seen early on boasting to Kirito and Asuna about winning tickets to the virtual concert of the idol Yuna, which becomes a central gathering point for the main cast. When his close friend Klein goes missing under mysterious circumstances, it is Kirito who contacts Agil to use his connections and investigative skills to track him down. Agil successfully locates Klein in a hospital, providing the group with critical information about the danger posed by the game. This action demonstrates his role as an information broker and a dependable rear-line supporter. Later, he joins the final confrontation against the game’s true antagonist, fighting alongside Kirito, Asuna, and the other survivors to defeat the powerful raid boss. In this battle, he showcases his veteran combat skills, employing coordinated tactics like the Switch with his allies.
Agil’s key relationships are centered on his camaraderie with the main group of SAO survivors. His friendship with Kirito is one of the most enduring, built on years of mutual respect and trust forged in the deadly floors of Aincrad. He treats Kirito like a younger brother, offering him a place to stay in the past and always being a source of honest guidance. He shares similarly strong bonds with Klein, Asuna, and the others, and his cafe, the Dicey Cafe, serves as the unofficial headquarters and gathering place for the group, a warm and welcoming space where they can plan, celebrate, or simply spend time together. His development in Ordinal Scale reinforces his established role as a pillar of the community; he is not a character who undergoes a dramatic personal transformation in this film, but rather one whose unwavering strength, loyalty, and resourcefulness are essential to the group's success. He remains the dependable big brother figure, demonstrating that his value lies not just in his combat prowess but in his wisdom and his willingness to support his friends from the front lines or the rear guard as needed.
Regarding his notable abilities, Agil is a highly skilled fighter in virtual and augmented reality environments. In SAO, he was a top-level clearer and a master of the two-handed battle axe, possessing a high level of proficiency and a powerful, straightforward fighting style. These skills translate directly to his performance in Ordinal Scale, where he uses the Augma device. While the Augma is primarily an AR device, it allows for combat against virtual monsters overlaid on the real world, and Agil proves he has lost none of his edge. He is capable of wielding a heavy battle axe effectively, demonstrating the strength and technique of a veteran front-line warrior. Beyond his physical abilities, his greatest strengths are his experience, his business acumen which often translates into strategic thinking, and his extensive network of contacts from his time as a merchant. His ability to gather information and his calm, level-headed demeanor in a crisis make him an invaluable asset, proving that his contributions are as much mental and social as they are physical.
