After Grimgar the world of ashes and fantasy, we move into a much more RPG notion of Isekai (plunged into another world) with Log Horizon.

This series is also, like SAO, an adaptation of a light-novel.

A video game in which he devoted several years of his life as a hobby. For him, who had to travel this world for thousands of hours, it is an opportunity to discover a new way of understanding this universe. And to understand how it works.
Broadcast in 2013 in Japan and simulcast on DNA, it is in October 2017 that will be released the Blu-ray version that we invite you to discover in video.
