Ah well, there goes the tradition of putting the topic image for every anime thread.
Anyway...

Synopsis
Spoiler:
Veteran gamer Shiroe and other players have been trapped in the world of the online game Elder Tales for six months. The once chaotic city of Akiba has regained its everyday hustle and bustle following the formation of the self-governing organization Round Table Meeting. The earthlings, who are originally from the game world, have gained the trust of Shiroe by waging a defensive war against the Goblins in Zantleaf Region. This has led Princess Rayneshia of the Cowen family, the highest-ranking Earthling Aristocrats, to live in Akiba.

It's almost winter and the Adventurers are thinking about what they're going to do and what their goals are in this other world. Will they remain in Akiba or go to the city of the West? Or will they travel to the land of the North or another faraway country? The opinions of the Adventurers begin to diverge. What adventures await the members of the Shiroe team in this second series of Log Horizon?

A very short preview
Spoiler:


In case you haven't watch the first season, start here.

It was around falls last year when the first season started. This coming fall the story continues. Can't wait to see more Log Horizon. Can't wait to see more MMO jargons. Can't wait to DATABASE!

Also, in the latest news, Studio DEEN will be animating this season's Log Horizon, replacing the previous studio Satelight.

More Shiroe x Akatsuki, please?

I absolutely loved the first season and I'm really looking forward to this. I'm hoping for some more actual fights with our main characters, but I'm generally just happy to be getting more DATABASE.

Fall 2014 is looking pretty good so far.

Super hyped for the second season. I'm really hoping they try to hit the new level cap and do some raids. That would be SICK!

Well to be fair, Satelight didn't do a "great" job in terms of quality with the 1st season though. Satelight was more focused on doing, Symphogear, White Album 2 and Nobunaga the Fool around the airing of LH, because Log Horizon is funded by the government rather than their own money, which means lacking commitment because it's a safe project.

Also They're doing this with the same Staff, DEEN is just doing the animations.

It's Not an entirely good thing though.

Yes, you get a fixed amount a budget enough for 24 episodes, but they don't have the final say for most of things, and in Satelight's case for season 1, they didn't go all out with it, and just focus on their shows that they pay for themselves.

And because it's government funded and aired in NHK, the darker/graphic/sexual things in Log Horizon is omitted/censored, because NHK is a family safe Tv Station.

Do shows usually get funded by the government? It sounds odd...

It's actually rare for the government to fund an anime. The usual thing to do is they get the budget from their own Studio, and hope for a large profit from DVD/Blu ray Sales. That's why there's one cheap marketing strategy of censoring in the TV airings and No censors on the DVD/BD release

There's also Project Anime Mirai, but that's small scaled, since the anime produced in those project doesn't span more than 1 episode.

Hmmm, learn something new everyday. Making me even more curious to watch now, hope they do a good job.

At the database OP I thought the 2 Shiroe was the current and the better equipped one. The other one was his female alt, Roe2. Can he use/control his alt now? I thought that they cannot log out? Change character maybe?

Spoiler I've read elsewhere
Spoiler:
Roe2 is a character Shiro made for the test server.

After Apocalypse she gained her own ego and ran into Tohya and his group later on.

Really looking forward to this.

The characters seem lackluster, bland, and not dynamic compared to the 1st season.

Probably because DEEN's behind the animation this time....
