hmm, just went to my usual anime site and saw one called Overlord. From the description it sounds pretty similar to SAO/Log Horizon. Anybody seen it? Is it any good?

It's ... different.  I'm not sure what to make of it yet.  It's more like he's an over-powered  MMO character at the level cap and he's suddenly inside the game where all the NPCs are real.  He was the guild master (I think) and his "guild hall" is filled with strong NPCs that are loyal to him but the entire tower is suddenly in another world.  It's a lot different from the other anime with a simular basis that have come before.

I was tempted to drop it but the villain characters they've been showing in the background are interesting.  It might pick up.

There's a thing that tracks its score week by week? That's pretty cool!

But thanks guys, will have to give it a try some time

Yep there is a club for it on MAL, and since everyone knows how much uran loves numbers: http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=59197

I just finished Jojo's Bizzare Adventure S1. Holy crap, was it good.
About to watch Stardust Crusaders. Thoughts on it ?

Pros

-Great core team

-Best Jojo returns

-First opening for SC is one of my favorite anime openings

-Joseph cursing in English

-Tarot theme was cool

-Great humor

 

Cons

-New Jojo is overpowered and wins every fight in almost the same way

-Hamon is pretty much thrown away for essentially no reason (for the most part)

-Author still hates dogs for some reason

-Lots of plot-induced stupidity (honestly, I thought this was part of the charm...but I watched the show with a friend who almost dropped the anime for this reason...so I thought I'd list it)

-Lots of suspension of disbelief (same as above for me...but it did get to be a little much at times)

 

All my opinion of course...and I might be blowing some of the cons out of proportion. If you liked the first two arcs, you'll probably like Stardust Crusaders overall. The format feels a little different than the first two arcs though, in that it's more episodic this time around. There still is an underlying goal, but instead of constantly fighting a small group of villains, the heroes have a new villain to fight every episode or two episodes. I didn't really mind it...but I'd say the 2nd arc (Battle Tendency) is still my favorite part of the anime so far.

-bows- You can thank me anytime for the recommendation ;)

I'm very interested in seeing where the show goes from here.

I-it's not like I'm grateful or anything...

*thanks you in a language you don't understand* >.<

Hey, I just finished JoJo S1 too!



Between this season's anime, I've been watching some other anime I've clicked on that sounded interesting. Most recently I've watched:

Ef - a Tale of Memories (I need to start a Tale of Melodies, the sequel series)
From the New World

I suggest both for relatively different reasons. They are both well told stories though and worth watching if you haven't seen them.

You know how bizarre it is when the cyborg Nazi appears and it doesn't faze you because you've seen weirder.
