This was really a refreshing anime for me, it reminded me why I liked the Isekai genre so much and the potential it held. The plot was amazing, even though it jumped from arc to arc, I still really enjoyed most of it. Watching the mc being talented at magic was great and all, but knowing that he has his flaws made it so much better. This made a huge gap for growth and character development, and the mc is only 10 years old (with a 40 year old brain of course). The art was captivating, the scenery, how the characters looked, the expressions, the

fights, was all so damn satisfying to watch. Watching the mc interact with different characters and how they started to grow fond of him was just great. The characters were so interesting, it captivated me and I found myself eager to know what happens to them, each and every single one. The parents, the teacher, the childhood friend, how his family bloodline works and how it was part of a bigger political background, all these were executed perfectly. Introducing new characters and their influence on the mc made me feel excited almost every episode. I binged the whole season in one night and I'm still hungry for more. What was more interesting was the power mechanics in this world. Magic was one big element (as it always has been), yet it's not flawless. That's where sword combat comes in, and man the animation for it is just satisfying to witness. It showed us that being good at one wasn't enough.
All in all, this was very much an enjoyable watch, and I hope to see more soon.

I don't write much reviews so this could just be considered a rant after finishing this. First off, I'll start with why I liked this series. Season 1 and 2 of Log Horizon was exceptionally interesting, how the characters found loopholes and created new concepts was based on their understanding of the game. It showed that players with experience and knowledge had an upper hand of this generic genre and it was really fun to watch. Even the parts where they try to connect it to a bigger plot related to the real world. This season I could not enjoy at all, I was excited
...
to see a season 3 but somewhere in the middle I lost interest so fast. Politics plot and the clashing of opinions in the round table were bearable, but everything after that felt like it was made just to make it reach 12 episodes. Don't get me wrong, adding politics into an anime does make it interesting but I feel like the execution was utter garbage. Based on the title, "destruction of the round table" you would think that the clans would be separated and gain individual influence for themselves. Yet, they tried to force the antagonist role onto one individual and ultimately destroyed the whole concept itself. It felt very forced and all the exciting elements of S1 and S2 did not show up at all. The foundation they laid out was never executed, where was the plot going? Nowhere. The whole story crashed, little to none character development (except for the children, which weren't the main characters of the show?), and don't get me started on the "last boss". The raid arc was painful to watch. The last 2 eps, I couldn't concentrate for more than 5 minutes without being bored to death. The last boss was really a disappointment, "Lose hope, the one you hold in veneration will not show up", I swear I have heard it say this line for more than 50 times and it gets old real quick. Before they started the fight, they decided to fight for themselves and not rely on their so called 'heroes'. Yet, they wanna weep about it when they get reminded of the heroes not coming. The last fight was such a letdown. This line. "we can't evade the purple attack, but we won't get caught if we are far enough?" How does that even work? First you show the villain damaging everyone in the room then you say "oh just take 2 steps back". The mechanics of it was so poorly executed I wanted to play it at 2x speed just to get it over with.
TL:DR, mad cuz S3 was garbage, it had so much potential to grow. :'(

It's a meh. Story lacked conviction. Im very disappointed in how this came out, the concept was very interesting but they downplayed it so bad. I swear this concept has so much potential. Characters were bland, there wasnt nothing going on between the MC and his girl. It's hard to think that someone would die for their girlfriend of a month and spend 10 years working on how to extract the "consciousness" from recorded data. The only intriguing part is the data. The idea that it isn't time traveling had its kown originality to it, thus not having a paradox would be totally logical... Props
...
to the concept, everything else sucked, thank you, goodbye.
