Nah, I understand... but that was one of the reasons I was drawn to it because it did have death in the game. Other anime MMORPG series treat death as being in real life while this one treats it as a slap on the wrist and seeing that the story is better. In SAO we did have PKing but it was treated just like real life so it was hard to see how SAO was still a game sometimes while in Log Horizon there is a HUGE problem with PKing because people can do whatever they want to do without problems, people are scared in the towns because PKing is so common unlike others.

Just finished SAO...

Just finished SAO...

All 25 episodes or the first arc 1-14?

Just Finished up Darker than Black and ended up enjoying it. Really pretty solid as far as supernatural/sci-fi anime goes. Now just trying to decide what new show to watch. I might go for something with a little more longevity like FMA brotherhood, but haven't decided.

Well just finished another episode of Attack on titan...the voices sound way too dang young(don't understand how that's possible, but it is). Ahh well maybe it'll get better a goo dub otherwise...

All of it.

I have to admit that I was a bit confused and disappointed during "Return", but that was swiftly stomped into the ground. I haven't watched much modern anime, but this has easily become one of my favorites of all time. I'm not afraid to admit this had me crying... a lot.

I really needed more of the .hack// universe, but now I want more SAO.

Same here I am really hoping for a new season that continues the story where it left off, a movie with some extra adventures from the first arc, or a reboot that spends more time on the first arc. I mean seriously they condensed years worth of time into 14 episodes and 15-25 took place in less then a week. There were plenty of characters who didn't get much screen time and a lot of floors got outright skipped.


Another Anime to look into is Accel World the manga has the same author as Sword Art Online. Plus the stories appear to be set in the same universe since there have been some Accel character appearances in the SAO manga according to some posts online. Overall I enjoyed it however the ending feels very rushed.

Accel World is pretty different from SAO. They aren't trapped in a game but instead take part in a kind of virtual fight club to gain augmented abilities in the real world.

They have all 24 subbed episodes up on Hulu.

Thanks! I'll definitely check it out. I'm also going to start reading the SAO manga soon as well.

Definitely worth a watch. Can't recommend it highly enough.

I'm watching Monster now based on a recommendation from a friend, and so far so good. I think I'm about 30 or so episodes in and definitely on the hook with the concept of the serial killer being hunted by the surgeon that saved him. The intrigue and suspense are great, and each episode really holds its own regardless of whether it advances the main plot.

Wispy is right - FMAB is one of the better shows I've seen, period. It's amazing.
