Freaking awesome episode. Some war tactics put in finally as the story approaches the climax. Looks like Rudy may be able to come back thanks to Shiroe or maybe even that old mage dude who just comes out of nowhere to make a contract with Rudy.

Great episode. Love the fact that this anime doesn't need a budget to be good. Or the premise of "you die here, you die for real".....
oh wait, nm. RUDDDYYYYYYYYY.

I really love how deep this show gets and how well things like the game mechanics are explained and just make so much sense.

Damn such an intense episode, mostly around battles, and strategic movements. Minori's group grew up really fast and can handle things even on tough situations, scoring major points on that one.

Though Rudy man, such a great character, having his own feelings that he wants to be the Adventures. Hope there is some ways to revive him.

Love the repertoire of spells they used in this episode. This was what I was expecting of Log Horizon. Best episode in a long time. Be cool if they animated more high level spells/skills.

This was a really badass episode. Log Horizon has far surpassed my expectations coming into it. I'm excited to see what Shiroe is going to do now that he has been called in.

Any NPC can just appear and be a one-death-adventurer?


I'm going to say that his appearance probably ties into the disappearance of the Izumo Knights. They are just extremely powerful people of the land so I would guess that there would be others.

There it is. Rudy is a People of the Land after all.

Hopefully we can focus more on the war on the goblins and more sahuagin instead.

Just when I thought everything has been smooth sailing right from the beginning for Minori, BAM a tough battle kicks in where battle experiences are vital.

The newbie party definitely has grown a lot but still a long way to go.

Minori definitely is talented though being able to mimic Shiroe's fully controlled combat even managed to achieve 5-10 seconds ahead.

On the other hand, this game has got to be the worse in terms of item drop rates. So many monsters slain and looted only a pair of gloves. I hope there will be a loot feast once the goblin king is defeated.

Oh dear, Rudy... Yeah, the foreshadowing was pretty transparent and all, but still I... I... wasn't ready for the punchline [sorry ;)]

People of the Land can use magic just like Adventurers. However, they are restricted by a level cap and also gain experience much more slower (four times if I remember correctly). This also indirectly demonstrates Rundelhaus' awesomeness as he had to work much harder than anyone else before even reaching the level he had during the summer training camp (it also shows why he thought his level was high enough to brag about during his introductory scenes...XD).
That makes those scenes so much harsher in hindsight... [Edit: yeah, I know the technical TV Tropes term is "Funny Aneurism Moment"]

Rudy has earned the highest amount of respect and honor out of everybody, he truly is an adventurer even more so than the adventurers themselves, pls don't die on me yet.

Lenessia truly understands krusty more than anybody else, his love for battle is an excuse to hide his lonely heart. which is why they are perfect for each other.

all those who were craving for action you have finally gotten it, the built up for this moment is well executed and i hope it continues to do so.

Why are the weeks getting longer to wait and the numebr of episodes shorter ;(

Now we know why Shiroe always said "look 30 seconds ahead". I'm glad they also acknowledged that since experiencing the whole thing in real time is FAR different than looking at a computer screen and thus make it more difficult to do anything.

The war tactic didn't disappoint me. Krusty was as bad-ass as expected.

The scene where Rundelhaus and Izusu were sitting at the lake together was beautiful.. that Izusu's blush!! Don't worry girl, you'll have your pet/lover boy back next episode and PLEASE hook up with him. I'm curious as to whether the adventurers can actually procreate with people of the land.

Well the action everyone's been wanting is here.

And Ser Run.dll Haus code our resident Golden Retrever's true identity has been revealed. It certainly brings a lot of questions to the fore as to the nature of Landers. Also the relationship between which one is the true abnormality really does sting XD

Next episode is contract? Will Magical Girl Rudy be born?

You could check out Maoyuu Maou Yuusha, it's the same author and has sort of a similar feel. You will have to put up with a lot more fan service though because of the adaptation. Also it uses quite a lot of time skips which I know a lot of people find annoying. But it is the best anime that I know of when it comes to portraying tactics and politics for grand fantasy wars.

Kingdom is the obvious answer. There's also elements of this in Utawarerumono and once you get past the balloon tits and exposition, Kyoukaisenjou no Horizon. If you are into looong space operas and politics there's also Legend of the galactic heroes although the space tactics are more naval.

Holyyyyyy Shit. What an epic episode.

Dat Crusty! So freaking bad ass. So he uses a two-handed axe. Damn!!

Oh my goodness. I was hoping for Rudy to die because the opening already spoiled it and all but I guess our bad ass MC Shiroe will save the day.

I wonder though how did Rudy have a level and skills if he is just a normal people of the land? Doesn't that contradict to the kingdom's army being so weak that Crusty can rape them all?

Anyways, I can't wait to see Shiroe in action. Dang, so exciting.

the people of the land can have there level raised as well but it takes 4 times the amount to level for a people of the land as much as an adventurer , u can see this in the episode. the average level for minoris group has been raise at least by 10 levels than when they started out at the training camp. as for Rudy who only raised his by 2 levels

Cool battles, some were average, but the soundtrack really enhanced the thrilling state
It was sort of expected Rudy would get the attention of the wolves, but throwing himself into it like that was really brave knowing he isn't really immortal

The preview kind of spoiled his condition

Such a great episode. Finally some fighting as well, and it was well done! Strategic, grand-scale, and full of teamwork, the way I like it.

The full-control encounter is nice.

I liked that we also found out about Rudy this episode. That's kind of scary but interesting if you think about it. So the nobles and the People of the Land can use spells, weapons, armor, have levels, etc just like the adventurers. The only different is that they can die and cannot be resurrected, and do not have some features that the adventurers do (friends list, etc). It's a really interesting discovery though, can't wait to see how it will be applied in the future. And how it actually works with them.

Well now that Shiroe has been contacted, he will surely investigate. Dang, this series is so interesting in how it applies everything.

How much does Minori exactly know as to why she thinks there's still hope if Shiroe comes? Does she simply have so much faith that Shiroe could think of a way, or does Minori know the nature of People of the land that she'd think Shiroe could do something about it?

pure faith, Shiroe is god to her

Unless you normally keep your drinks next to your trash can....

Would it be sick of me to say that this picture convinced me to give this show a chance?

I am not really into MMORPG, but I have been periodically checking the boards here to see how people have liked this show. The posts have been mostly favorable, but also mostly MMORPG centric, but seeing that someone with that type of humor is attached to this show is what makes it intriguing to me.

you know loots in this kind of games are NORMAL FOR NORMAL MMORPG which has HARD MODE DROPS that can only have atleast 5 - 10 % chance of DROPS....

or maybe 10 - 20 or 30 % chance drops of items and 5 - 10 % drops of Rare items.....


If you tried playing a game like Ragnarok Online (the REAL ONE not a Private server) .....u'll see how the drops go... same as Elder Tales Online of Log Horizon,

Rundelhaus' heroism was his downfall. If he didn't intervene to save Tohya then at least Tohya would revive at the cathedral, but he is (seemingly) gone for good.

Not that I'm complaining, of course the mighty Rundelhaus code doesn't abandon a friend in need.

At the time of this post the poll is 90.16% 5/5, and I couldn't agree more.

Hopefully Rudy's noble sacrifice will not have been in vain.


well the thing is that tohya is the tank of the group, meaning if he dies, all the rest of the party get 2-3 hit killed by the mobs. basically when the tank falls, the whole party is wiped out. therefore either he sacrifies himself (maybe not because of saving the tank, but saving his buddy) or the other outcome that everyone dies...
