![]() ![]() Perhaps it is a personal trait with me, but I prefer shows with mysteries and problems that need to be solved with strategy and intelligence rather than the "I win because I so so want to" plot point of many shonen anime shows out there. ![]() While SAO was all about characters, Log Horizon is all about strategy, with the protagonist Shiroe being the master of strategy. It shows that even in a fictional game world with basic rules and laws, unless someone actively creates order, things can soon descend into chaos. How one adapts and in fact creates a world of their own choice is the focus of the show. Instead what we have is a glimpse of how people will react if they are trapped inside a game with no way (not even death) of getting out. What this means is that Log Horizon is a little less depressing and dark since people (and the show) is not always concerned about death. Something distressing does happen to them when they are reborn but you can watch the show to see what. For starters people don't die on Log Horizon. Sure, everyone out there who reads or hears of the plot of Log Horizon will go "But that's just the same as Sword Art Online" but this is quite a different show. ![]()
