The worst thing i just can't handle is the hate for the "similar" SAO wich is ten times better.No seriously.. if you're thinking this ugly copy is better there is something wrong with you.. I can understand for the spells, classes and the whole Rpg sistem etc but stop.. the rest are just boring useless speechs who make you slee.. Zzzz
There will be many confronts with Sao in this review since many people recommend it for its similar settings but They are Two completely different things,Sao is a love story so deal with it.
By the way, i will just write what i criticize the most and the reason why it is a very bad anime.
Let's start from the beginning.. You got stuck in a RPG game with no chance to escape and what s your first reaction? Fear? Anxiety? Nahh let s take a walk and call my old friend..(few moments later,when they met) "oh man so you're stuck in the game too.." "Yea, woo i ve always thought you were a tall man!" "Hoho that s exactly how i imagined you..look at you, with those glasses" Mm..And while you are at it, order two coffee please oh my god, this is one of the first conversations. Thus the question arises: wtf is happening? .I want you to remind the first ep of Sao.. the air was full of terror.. You just got trapped in a game and you can t log out!!! the first days in Sao many people died or committed suicide cause they cannot manage to being trapped in a game! ..Even after lot of episodes in Log horizon people still don't care and live quietly.. ehm.. The real world? your family?don t you miss them? Sao s players started to fell "adapted" after a year or so when they partially left hopes for coming back in the real world. This is like a crucio that keeps knocking in your head and make this anime too illogical for a watch.Its pacing is also terrible and sets up many useless minor plots to the whole thing.
Then, the characters, the weakest point of LH: the Mc, called the demonic four-eyed, a lv 90 magycian who uses only 1 spell for the few battles he fought (and he s lv 90 so a little more fantasy lol)..a ninja lolita who serve the mc like a master,wow what a news,a perverted big man who get kicked by the lolita every time he tries to joke, the leaders of the crescent moon, an hugger woman who hugs Everybody for no reason and the irrealistic business woman in the real world (bookkeeper i guess) that has a lv 90 Rpg player and spend all tje time trying to use the lolita like a doll..but ehi .. It s an anime so no problem,it s ok, should i continue? let s pass over, it s better..
The most important, the death sistem.You can't die in the game.. Nope seriously? You just cut off the only thing that could have added some tension to this series.This fit up perfectly in Sao and that s why i absolutely loved the first 12 eps of it.The tension was constant and you didn t know what would have happened.
One last thing, i read that after 50 eps so the end of the second season there are still no answers on WHAT and WHY they re there,which would have been the most important thing to explain, so no answers after 20 hours of watching lol.
