Nice, ninja girl! Summoner, huh. He called out those monsters early. Even though they got huge damage from the summoner summoning huge monster, main guy was able to analyze and be himself. With the team's power, he was defeated.

Antenna found and fixed. Then "Kanami" appeared again. So she got a baby daughter. While talking to her, he found new goal, to connect two worlds. Another megane guy's there?!

So the enemy group includes another friend of megane guy... It ended with open ending (because there's no announcement of 3rd season).

the group defeated the final boss and protected the antenna. sadly we won't see them actually working on connecting the 2 worlds, and i guess season 3 won't come any time soon :/
and those 10 seconds of krusty were such a tease.

6/10, the first season was better.

Another open ending, but overall this season wasn't as good as the first. If they do make a third season, assuming sales are good enough, then the beyond-open ending will be okay.

It did end on a positive note, but adding in all the extra plot threads on top of the already open ending is pretty daring. Just have to see what happens.

I enjoyed the boss battle, however this season definitely wasn't as amazing as the first one. After 25 episodes it does not feel like we have accomplished anything. We are still "stuck" in the game, and with an open ending.

7/10

I think there won't be a third Season, because you can see at the end of the episode is "The End"

Shiroe and Kannami's long awaited reunion, kind of. Glad to see they remembered that Krusty exists and we ended on a high note. No announcement for a third season but with it being up to date I suppose that's expected.
Not as good as the first season but there's no denying I want more all the same.

I enjoyed the final episode with the battle against the raid boss. Started out in the form of an old hermit then evolved into a monster then a complete abomination as a final form. Everyone in the raid worked so hard in taking down the raid boss. It was intense!

I'm in favor of the third option! Connect Elder Tale to the real world! :D Unlock the Logout option?

Well this final episode was my favorite episode from this season, so second season as a whole gets a solid 8/10 from me. :) Dunno if they'll continue this with a season 3 but I'll watch it too if it does come true.

All of the volumes have been covered up to the latest one: volume 10 web novel....there are still 5 volumes left to adapt but they have to be written first cause mamare said the series will finish with 15 volumes.

Each season adapted 5 LN each...all it needs now is to wait for the last volumes to be published and one more season to be released to finish the story. At best i would say a new season would come out in 1 1/2 to 2 years time

Sales don't matter cause this is a NHK sponsored show, so it will happen sooner or later :)

Finale felt weird. I didn't mind the final boss Taliktan being some pro summoner but the fight itself and the aftermath just weird. I guess they didn't want the adventures to end any time soon.

Not sure how this was adapted from the LN from here since I haven't caught up to the latest volume. Anyways, fight was alright but Kanami's appearance didn't really impress me. Felt like the series had to add some comedy moments for moderate reactions. The show overall was quite fun though imo.

7/10. Not as good as first season indeed. Even animation quality didn't match the caliber of it. Sigh. But overall, it was a fun season.

Doesn't really hold a candle to season 1, but I do admit the last episode was fairly enjoyable, as LH redefines their final end goal. Also William was pretty much the highlight of season 2 no denying that.

Hopefully we don't have wait long for a season 3.

Sidenote: A severe lack of glasses pushing compared to season one... what a travesty.

Actually, this ending was well done. They ended the series in a smooth fashion. They closed off the arcs, gave grounds for a third season, and cleaned off the remaining issues (war, etc). I think this ending was skillfully done. It may be open, but that's because there is definitely more to come; whether they have the funds to make a season 3, or are forced to relay to viewers that they must read the LN to find out more has yet to be decided.

Fafnir series could learn a thing or two from Log Horizon! :)

Personally, I believe they've left enough open content for the series to reach episode 100 and beyond.

Shiroe went boss mode, took down a big tank and finished him with a big bang. Have Naotsugu and Akatsuki be the ones to deliver the final blow.

Amazing how Shiroe was able to predict who would get hit from that "High Aggro" move or whatever it is called.

Well at least Akatsuki knows Kanami's voice. I'm still waiting for those two to meet. I felt a bit bad for Shiroe because Kanami mentioned she has a kid. Shiroe was shocked and looked a bit sad since he probably had feelings for her. The good thing is, Crusty is back. We still don't know where that sword did to him or how he was found by Kanami, but perhaps a Season 3 could explain that.

Overall pretty good show. 7/10


Oh Nazuna, she's way too adorable

As a raid boss, pro-summoner Taliktan wasn't really anything special. Rather, he got taken down pretty easily. Kinda disappointing..

I thought "connecting the two worlds" was what Shiroe was going for in the first place, instead of leaving the game once and for all. But I guess they needed a scope to uphold it, which in this case was Kanami wishing to show the world of Elder Tale to her daughter.

How the hell Crusty ended up in the Chinese sever? The Flavor Text must've had a radical change for that to happen! What is he carrying anyways? O.o

Not a bad end to the arc, but could've certainly been executed better. 6.5-7/10 Overall. I do hope for a 3rd season, but preferably from another studio than DEEN.

I agree that overall this season wasn't as good as first one, but I think it is namely the fillers that made it bad (and the story from 6th volume that is also a filler for me). The other episodes like Shiroe doing the raid with Suskino's guilds and what was happening at the end of the season were quite good.

Log Horizon sure knows how to go out with a bang. This was definitely one of the better episodes of this second season (which was somewhat lackluster compared to the first), even if it does leave tons of questions that may not be answered for a long time yet.

Hope we get a 3rd season, but I don't know how long it will take for there to be enough source matieral for that, or if the sales are even good enough to justify the possibility.

Clearly not enough material for a full second season but they did it anyway, I guess because of the release of SAO2. Having Studio Deen take over didn't help things either. 5/10.

I think there was far more to that scene. 3-4 years ago was when Kanami left Log Horizon and went to Europe, that is not a coincidence. Which raises the question of both why she left and why Inticus calls Shiroe "the traitor" immediately after (Kanami leaving is why she hates Shiroe so much). Put those two things together and we can guess what was being suggested (though maybe not where the writer wants to go).

I won't go into the obvious faults of this season, but for future novels I think it wise to focus on the team, not a parts (except Shiroe). The best episodes this year are where Shiroe is leading a team either in battle or in a political contest and he is awesome, the further the story moves away from that main theme the worse it becomes. All other characters need to be developed in context of this main theme. This is why so many people think this season was "filler" when it was straight from the novels.

Looks like there is gonna be another season with this ending? Hopefully it will come back soon :D

Well I have to agree with everyone, 1st season is much better than this 2nd season. Let's hope that if there is another season they would do muh better.

Just one word: disappointing.

I loved the first season so much that I was able to watch all the episodes in around 3 days. With me watching some episodes multiple times afterwards. I even went as far as to personally recommend it to all my manga / anime (and some MMORPG) loving friends and told them that if they found SAO even a tiny bit interesting, they'd love this Anime.

As for this season, it was the complete opposite. I found myself skipping multiple parts because of how dragging / forced they felt. Fillers (TBH I'm not sure if they are fillers or if they were actual chapters in the story since the translation of the light-novel has been stopped) achieved the opposite of what they should and just made episodes feel empty and completely pointless. From the change in animation / drawing style to the way the story was told... it all seemed "different"... and not for the better.

While waiting for this season I read the light novel and was looking forward to the "Gold of the Kunie" arc. Come 2nd season, even the boss fights were butchered. There was so much to be told / shown during that arc, especially during the boss fights. Well, to cut it short, the "Gold of the Kunie" arc was extremely underwhelming + disappointing but the bad thing is that every single episode that followed achieved to underwhelm + disappoint even more.

The light novel deserves a far better anime adaptation. Despite that, if ever the third season gets confirmed, I'll be sure to check the first few episodes out and decide it I'll drop watching this Anime altogether. I won't be actively waiting for a continuation unlike when a good anime season ends tough.

That was a really good finale

Did not expect to find out that best girl Kanami was a mommy =o I found it to be incredibly kawaii how much she cares about her child >//< The chemistry that she has with Shiroe is perfect, I always liked the idea that she used to be shipped with him but now I'm all aboard that ship

The raid boss battle was pretty awesome as well, and seeing everyone work together and go all out as well as sering Demi cry over his wife lol was really great to see

I liked the ending resolve that Shiroe and Kanami came up with as well because personally I didn't like the idea of them leaving this world forever so I'm glad that they want to unite the twin world's now. I'm also glad that they finally addressed the Krusty issue. I would have never guessed that he would be in China's server with Kanami lol

Overall this season had its ups and downs but as a whole it all flowed well and the character development in it was well done

7.5-8/10 Can't believe it's over :(

This was a pretty nice final episode.

Seeing Shiroe back into full power to defeat that boss.

The talk with Kanami was fun with how an alternative mindset is there too with connecting the two worlds. That does sound really interesting.

Crusty finally showing up back at the Chinese server. I actually enjoyed this equally when compared to the first season, I didn't mind the differences in the focus for a while.

Now this is how a Log Horizon episode should look like.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.
