    Log Horizon



    Summary: The story begins when 30,000 Japanese gamers are trapped in the fantasy online game world Elder Tale. What was once a sword-and-sorcery world is now the real world. The main lead Shiroe attempts to survive with his old friend Naotsugu and the beautiful assassin Akatsuki.

    SAO done right? Who knows, but it's pretty good so far.

    That's an interesting chart, if the game will expand on its "technical side" it will be pretty cool.

    Episode 4 was pretty great! I like this kind of action.

    Really enjoying it so far. I do wonder where the overall story is going. With SAO the die and you die so you have to win made for a clear goal. I am sure there will be one here but I wonder what it is.

    The preview for next episode hints that it'll be revealed soon. The story needs a main antagonist(unless they wanna show us all the dungeons, which I don't mind, I was sad how they skipped so many floors on SAO :c )

    I think there are at least a couple of arcs dedicated to the scrubs doing some mid level dungeons.

    My vote for surprise twist is that they aren't humans trapped in an MMO, but unauthorized AI clones of living players; no way out.

    Written by the same author who wrote Maoyuu Maou Yuusha.

    I want this to be an actual game so bad. All the ability technobabble makes me giddy.

    well, the author is kinda big on worldbuilding if maoyuu was any indication, but obviously just like maoyuu, the animu adaptation really skims over it

    at least it's not turning into a tit animu...yet

    I felt like there was perhaps a bit too much exposition during the fight, but maybe once these tactics are "established" we'll get some heavier action later.

    Dunno if already known but there's the manga version too: http://www.mangareader.net/log-horizon/1/4 (inb4 "I don't like that website")

    I kinda like the exposition, but I wish they could do it in a way more interesting to watch (like explaining it to the Assassin). Still, I like this because it feels more like an MMO and that's kinda cool.

    This show has the worst pacing I've ever seen. I'm enjoying it so far but I really wish I hadn't bothered starting it until it was over, or at least reasonably close to the end. I like the direction the story is going but SAO has been better in every way so far... somehow even in pacing. Never thought I'd be wanting massive time skips every other ep again but it would sure beat the past few eps.
