Info

One day, while playing the online game Elder Tales, 30,000 players suddenly find themselves trapped in another world. There, eight-year veteran gamer Shiroe also gets left behind. The trapped players are still alive, but they remain in combat with the monsters. The players don't understand what has happened to them, and they flee to Akiba, the largest city in Tokyo, where they are thrown into chaos. Once proud of his loner lifestyle, Shiroe forms a guild called Log Horizon with his old friend Naotsugu, female assassin Akatsuki and others.

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
shinolextazy After watching Sword art online and same category animes I found Log Horizon. The first season was wonderful I was charmed by it but then I saw second season and watched it.. That was the beginning of my nightmares lol.. I don't know how but it was like they did everything to screw up :/ Animation: First Season 8/10Second Season 6/10(Many character seemed circular drawn to me)Sound: First Season 9/10Second Season 9/10(Both season's fight sounds and all other sounds was great)Character: First Season 7/10Second Season 9/10(The new characters on second season was good. They added them as help on rainforest)Story: First Season 9/10Second Season 6/10Overall: First Season(9/10): First season was so good on overall rating they accomplished a good anime.Second Season(5/10): Second season loses from his story.. The story was not original. I don't mean they stole it of course but there was nothing 'new' on second season. Thats why Log Horizon lost me on second season.
Tweekums The game 'Elder Tales', an immersive MMORPG, has been popular for some time but when a new upgrade is added its players find themselves trapped within the game. There are over thirty thousand people caught in the game with no obvious way out. Typically one would expect the rest of the series would see them struggling to find a way out but here they quickly come to accept that, at least for the time being, this will be their new home. The story is centred around Shiroe and his friends; he is a strategist and soon sets about making the world a better place for them to live. He slowly increases his influence and helps build alliances so food and such like is shared fairly. As well as uniting the various groups of players he must build friendly relations with the NPCs; the so called 'Players of the Land'. There is still fighting to be done of course; there are both monsters and players who would rather not treat others fairly that need dealing with.Having watched 'Sword Art Online' I was expecting more of the same but this proved quite different; nobody can die, and more time is spent world building than fighting. There is also a larger cast of important characters to remember; Shiroe may be the main character but there are lots of other interesting people too; notably his friend Akatsuki, a female assassin; Nyanta, the cat headed chef who discovers food that actually tastes of food and Minori and Tohya, two young low-level players Shiroe has to rescue… although to be honest there are so many important characters it is impossible to remember them all while typing up a revue but while watching they are fairly distinctive in both appearance and character. The story progresses nicely with some exiting battle scenes and negotiations which are tenser than one might expect. As the story enters its second series there is a disappointing habit of having some episodes focusing on secondary characters although even these aren't bad.As the second series came to a conclusion it was clear that the story wasn't over so I wouldn't be surprised if we get series three at some point; I certainly hope we do as I enjoyed this more than I expected.These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
michaelzay 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!
Sameer Shahnewaz 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 .
