While Log Horizon doesn’t really attempt anything particularly exceptional and shoots itself in the foot by allowing resurrections, thus breaking tension, it at least seems to have been made by people who know what a MMORPG is, unlike Sword Art Online and its ilk. A fine light-hearted watch to kill some time with, but don’t expect .hack//Sign.
