Log Horizon

I went in expecting just another fighting an enemy for a few episodes, then winning and fighting the next one.

But it expands so much on the world, and the story is really about making this new world a better place, stopping guilds who treat people unethically, and helping those in need.

The characters really grow on you, and they do a good job of setting the tone of the situation. Lots of serious parts, but also times where I genuinely laughed, something a lot of shows don't seem to do for me anymore.

I got hooked on this show really quickly, and I hope it continues to grow!

After watching Overlord i was hungry for similar material, which Log Horizon is. My expectations were low as i though the graphics was aimed at a younger audience, but boy was i wrong. It was not long before i could not wait to watch the next episode to see what happens. Unlike many other trapped in a MMORPG series this retains the MMORPG element at all times. The players are still, sort of, bound by the MMORPG rules and the tactics remain the same. However the changes are the most interesting elements, especially the people of the land and the new majic created. This will keep you glued to your seat once you get into it, which should be by episode 11, when the people of the land become involved. After that and you will need to resist being watching it. Also, unlike many other anime with the same MMORPG element, this is children safe. No fan base material included, so its safe to allow children to watch.

The review is only for Season One

There were some good episodes but most of the journey was a drag, going into too much details and build-up of characters really slowed the pacing down also the animation is mediocre.

I didn't had too much hope for this one , since it's a mmorpg based anime , I thought it would be a all fights , average story , forced romance kinda anime . But boy o boy was I wrong ? What makes Log Horizon stand above other animes with similar themes (i.e SAO and Accel World)is that it's much more mature , focuses on the story , looks at the events from a strategic point of view , shows us what happens behind the curtains i.e the political side of the whole thing . It doesn't limit itself to some crappy one dimensional forced romance stories . The main character is a master strategist , the characters show enough complexity to keep them interesting .

There isn't any lone wolf mumbo jumbo going on , their is a cohesiveness feel on the show , when it comes to Log Horizon teamwork is the name of the game . All in all , if you are a fan of good old fashioned strategy and action- adventure stories , I suggest you give this a shot .

Really a great series.it is based on an mmorpg game where player stucked in the game like SAO.same concept but different story.i didn't expect the storyline to bes so deep.you will be hooked from episode 1 and seriously this is so interesting.it has adventure, magic, strategy,politics,and a little bit of romance.dont except great fight scenes.and all the characters are super loving and well made and voice artists literally went insane in this series. So Majestic voices.you will literally fall in love with this.my favourite are marie and nureha.i would love to if nureha would join the guild.so excited for next season.and one thing to say if this series had fight scenes like SAO then it would have more famous than SAO and one of the best isekai to consider.seriously guys give it a try.if you love strategy then it will captive you for sure. No series is perfect in every aspect and this lacks fighting styles.asides it i dont see any problem . Waiting for season 4💙
