Well, that was...fast!! I'm not surprised though, considering how popular it is in the anime community.
Also, probably one of the most intelligent anime I've seen in years, so I welcome this second season with arms wide open.

I was just saying that because I'm also waiting for SAO2 LOL.
It's nice having 2 of my favorite series adapted back to back. Now if only some other Chinese light novels get an adaptation too...

Some people join a bandwagon to hatefest on a series every season in order to appear a certain way, instead of appreciating that something gets an adaptation at all. Producing anime isn't cheap after all.

Same basic setting & the same central plot point. Only thing that sets both apart is that one focused on romance first & foremost, while the other chose to go with politics. Either way, I've no probs with both series, but yup, this year is the year of comparisons. The VRMMO anime fanwar is upon us. -_-

While it's clear from SAO that they are in a VRMMORPG, Elder Tales in LH is a mouse and keyboard MMORPG. It's closer to a snatched-to-another-land story disguised as a trapped-in-a-game story. But yeah, the truth is more complex than both sides (Elder Tales is a VR or Elder Tales is a fantasy world a la Narnia) would like to believe.

I think there are more to that than "We gotta get back". The world of Elder Tales appears to be a world that needs to be healed and fixed, like a lighter version of the world of Dark Souls. Speculation; one possible course of action would be to find out how to fix that world and make the life of the People of the Land better, then going home/staying (it's possible that not everyone want to go back).

Honey Moon Logs is ... meh (the whole flavor-text thing was introduced much earlier than it was in the LN), WWB is arguably pretty dark for NHK that is harder to cut out and thus would have to be altered more, and Kanami's side-story isn't that difficult but the second they get to *those* monsters, they might have to tone down their nightmarish appearances.

That would definitely suck for those wishing to go back. tbh I'd prefer to leave the two options open. Some people like Touya may not wish to go back as a cripple/whatever sucked for them in 21st century Earth. (I have a father who is now crippled so I can sympathize with the boy when I remember the lively person my father used to be).
