<p>The whole <em>Phantom Bullet</em> arc <strong>is</strong> Sinon's arc, in the same way the <em>Fairy Dance</em> is mostly Leafa's arc, for the most part. Neither character has another side-story outside of these arcs, seeing as most of their past is expanded within them.</p>

<p>In the Light Novels, this is Volumes 5 and 6. Most of what you want to know about Shino/Sinon will be in those two volumes.</p>

<p>I'm rewatching the whole <em>SAO</em> series and I go to the manga whenever I want to clear things up for the show but I thought about something. </p>

<p>In the Aincrad novels, there are specific chronological Arcs for:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Silica, Lizbeth, Yui, Sachi</p>
</blockquote>

<p>But in the second season, we see Sinon, a "main?" character. But isn't there a specific Arc for her? or some more backstory than what we see in the Anime? </p>

<blockquote class="spoiler">
  <p> The fact that she gets scared of guns but in-game she isn't, and her past at the bank.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>I couldn't find any Arcs for the characters of the second season so if there are where can I find them or what are they called?</p>

Is there a specific arc for Sinon in the anime?

I'm rewatching the whole *SAO* series and I go to the manga whenever I want to clear things up for the show but I thought about something.

In the Aincrad novels, there are specific chronological Arcs for:

> Silica, Lizbeth, Yui, Sachi

But in the second season, we see Sinon, a "main?" character. But isn't there a specific Arc for her? or some more backstory than what we see in the Anime?

> The fact that she gets scared of guns but in-game she isn't, and her past at the bank.

I couldn't find any Arcs for the characters of the second season so if there are where can I find them or what are they called?

The whole *Phantom Bullet* arc **is** Sinon's arc, in the same way the *Fairy Dance* is mostly Leafa's arc, for the most part. Neither character has another side-story outside of these arcs, seeing as most of their past is expanded within them.

In the Light Novels, this is Volumes 5 and 6. Most of what you want to know about Shino/Sinon will be in those two volumes.
