lightXTC said: So many ships .... So jealous of the princess, I wish I could have 3 meals and do nothing but nap all day. I can tell you, it's not all it's cracked up to be ;) Also, Lenessia was damn cute again, love her pouty faces. All the girls in their ball gowns, so cute, especially Miss Izusu. And a lot of ships sailed around. Loved the parade for the return of the princess to akihabara, too XD she's prolly be treated like an Idol. Maybe she should start singing lessons? Aitakatta aitakatta aitakatta YES! Kimi ni~ |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| A relaxing episode. LOL "I'll leave Henrietta to you" - leaving Akatsuki as bait so Henrietta won't chase after 'em. Many people bad mouthing Shiroe.. and after everything he's done for them. (I'll bet he'll just take advantage of the rumours anyway lol) World Class Magic using in the western skies, in Minami eh.. Wonder who it was.. Still a little surprised they've been able to adapt 5 volumes for this season. LOL Isuzu, her impressions, (Rudy looking like a dog) when asking for a dance. Always going to love Crusty/Lenessia moments, the "mind-reading monster" and the "lazy princess" That woman telling the story of what happened.. between Shiroe and Rudy. Marielle and her "air glasses" XD Festival time! (in 2 weeks) Looking forward to final few episodes this season. |
 |
| Imaginary glasses was funny xD Why the fuck do the NPCs think Shiroe is a bad person? Misunderstanding? Will Log Horizon end having romances? I don't think so, although I'd really like to see that, since I'm a romance sucker that's loves romance. |
| I thought Minori just admired Shiroe but it looks like she likes him. |
| So Crusty is Superman and Shiroe is the Dark Knight of Akihabara. Interesting how Shiroe's secretiveness is creating such a terrible aura around himself with the outsiders that don't actually know him. It's also nice that there setting up the seeds for season two already. |
  |
| I find all the slander Shiroe is receiving interesting, I don't think it would take much change on Shiroe's part to be a villain. |

bigzzcobzz said: Why the fuck do the NPCs think Shiroe is a bad person? Misunderstanding? First, they're not NPCs; they're adventurers. Second, because he is a bad person. He bought the guild building, he charges a tax for access to fund the round table. If he wanted to, he could hold everybody hostage by denying them access to their assets and to guilds. Actually, he already does that, but only to force everybody to recognize the legitimacy of the round table. He could very easily just decide to use all that power for personal gain, and nobody would be able to stop him. Most importantly though, he's taxing them. It's some tiny amount, but still. That pretty much makes him the devil, or at least as bad as any politician ever. Then again, I would argue that those two are equally bad. Never trust a politician, especially not if his name starts with Dalton and ends with Mcguinty. |

| pls guys, dont spoil things from the next ep seeing in the preview. there is the spoiler tag for that. |
| in the next episode: shiroe, the loli hunter shiroe is an antihero type of guy, so its natural for him to act evil out of necessity and on another not for the storyteller: |

| lol Nyanta is a lolicon >:D (or just straight up pedophile) Shiroe and Akatsuki it must happen! I really want Season 2 :/ I don't know what I will do after this season finishes :/ |
| I am a human. |
| Great conclusion to the arc! Looks like there will be shipping next week? |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| how much I miss Henrietta groping Akatsuki |
 |
| Lenessia was cute as always. The girls beating around the bush, all of them (Minori and Akatsuki with Shiroe, Serara with Nyanta). Only Isuzu is charging straight ahead, but she's just taking care of her dog.. The people begin blaiming Shiroe for everything..well, they are partially right. He did not have much part in what happend with Lenessia, that was basically all Krusty's doing. But he did know about the memory loss, and decided to hide it. He did tell the other Round Table members rather early though, and they did hide it, too, so.. Regarding Akatsuki: She didn't do much during the war, but she shouldn't forget that she was there at every important moment. She was there when he created the round table, he took her with her to the meeting with Eastal, she heard what Regan said about world-class magic and memory loss, he did invent the new magic while she took over the reins of their gryphon, she was nearby when he did use it - while he specifically ordered her to keep everyone else away. Basically, if Minori etc. wouldn't have been with Rundel at that time, Akatsuki would be the only one to know besides Shiroe and Rundel (not counting that mysterious stranger). He keeps more things secret from everyone else, including Maryelle and Krusty. Heck, he probably doesn't even tell Nyanta and Naotsugu everything. But Akatsuki was there. She could very well be the one who rules from in the shadows if she wanted. I also wonder if that storytelling session there was to let Shiroe know that she knows. Given that she knows something that almost no one can know, it's likely. Someone with such skills wouldn't accidently "reveal" herself. It's a message that the game has started, the opening gambit, and he did bite. Wonder what they'll do with 4 episodes, now that the war is more or less over (unless they rush to the goblin king now..). They started with stories on the west, but they can't possibly deal with that the way they did with Eastal, not in 4 episodes. |
| Akatsuki looked so cute this episode lmao Serara and Nyanta-san moment? Wow! |

No, they can't rush to the goblin king raid since that story arc isn't finished yet (in the LN). They'll probably finish it w/ the Libra Festival arc w/c I bet a lot of people will be calling "FILLER!!!!" and crying foul. It's not though. Everything plays a part in the advancement of the story in LH. And I do mean everything. So pay attention folks. And "the storyteller" is voiced by none other than Chiwa Saito! I like it. |
| Those air glasses made me lose it XD |
| wow seems going pree fast atm the festival next week |
 |
| In the world of Log Horizon, fear, information, money is power. Shiroe has all of that, and thus all the normalfag adventurers will fear him and hate him. In this sense, I think Shiroe doesn't mind it all, and will use the fear and misinformation around him as a tool to his own ends (i.e. the good of the world). He doesn't have to be a hero in the eyes of the people. Whereas Krusty is the hero that the people want, Shiroe is the hero that the people need. I haven't read the LN, but probably will since I'm so damn interested in what happens next (given a second season would probably be at least a year in the making). I kind of wonder about all the relationships though. Do I sense a fight for Shiroe's affections in the next episode's preview? XD I can't wait already! |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| Okay episode i guess, kinda disappointed on how much we saw the battles with the goblins. Whats everyone's problem with Shiro? Don't get it. |
My Candies:     |
L-Ryoshi said: Shiroe is the hero that the people need. So would you say, perhaps, that he is the hero that Akiba deserves? |
| The other members of the Round Table Council are just as competent as Shiroe. I like the way the series portrays the characters as independent and learning over time, not necessarily being overly dependent upon Shiroe outside of general strategy. |
| Did I just watch a slice of life episode? Eh, whatever. |
fst said: L-Ryoshi said: Shiroe is the hero that the people need. So would you say, perhaps, that he is the hero that Akiba deserves? more like the VILLAIN Akiba deserves :P well, nice episode for wrapping up the arc. Rudy looked so cool, and Akatsuki looked so cute :D |

Sourire said: MellowJello said: at least 50% of LH is slice of life..Did I just watch a slice of life episode? Eh, whatever. I disagree. It's not mundane or realistic enough to be considered slice of life. It is very politics and exposition heavy, which leads to somewhat of a slow pace, but that alone doesn't make it slice of life. Sourire said: annnnnnnd this anime went back the boring route. wasted potential. Eh, it wraps up the arc nicely and allows them to transition smoothly into the next one. If you consider it boring, perhaps you'd find SAO more to your liking. This isn't really an action show in the sense that it isn't at it's best when it's doing action. |
| The pairings, I loved it, this was quite romantic Rundel House Code finally looked classy Crusty teasing Lenessia all the time is just too cute The woman retelling the resurrection event to the children was quite dark and interesting, especially with Shiroe hearing it at the background |
| Air glasses lol... Marie wanted to become like Shiroe and Henrietta. Waah so many romance flags in this episode, too bad they didn't show how Shiroe and Akatsuki dancing. Poor Rudy still hasn't advanced from the dog-zone despite sacrificing his life. http://imgur.com/4udgkrI This scene was too adorable!!! It's like Akatsuki has already resigned of being Henrietta's "pet" XD Next episode seems to be about Shiroe x Akatsuki x Minori love triangle. I'm not sure if I should feel sorry for Shiro since it seems that all the flat-chested girls like him lol.. I guess he could snag Henrietta if he wants to but he seems to be as much a lolicon as Nyanta XD |

kuuurt said: So many pairings, so little time. Even the next episode's probably about romance! To all LNfags: Should I read the LNs? Honestly, I'm only in it for the pairings, so is it worth reading? Oh yes, if you want more detailed explanations. The pairings are the same, but presented more subtly. Romance is after all, not the main focus of this series. |
| Their bad impression of Shiroe in the anime is worse than I imagined as I read volume 4. Shiroe x Akatsuki all the way. |
| Great episode! Win win for all pairings |
1lau said: The pairings, I loved it, this was quite romantic Rundel House Code finally looked classy Crusty teasing Lenessia all the time is just too cute The woman retelling the resurrection event to the children was quite dark and interesting, especially with Shiroe hearing it at the background I agree! I love everything about this, and I quite like the even pace. Because as much as I liked SAO I prefer LH more. |
| Sorry! I must admit I am confused most of the time. Feel free to recommend anime to me, or tell me to shut up. |
Stark700 said: "Shall we dance". ;o I was hoping they would do the dance scenes though...oh well. Relaxing episode overall. I too :( |
 |
| It was an alright episode. I've enjoyed the first half of this series much more so far. I don't really care that she didn't join, but i still can't believe Serara didn't join Log Horizon. I mean, A. Log Horizon saved her near the beginning of the series from that evil dude. while her own pathetic guild was helpless, B. She has a huge crush on Nyanta, and C. the people she's partied with and became good friends with the last several episodes, all belong to Log Horizon. Seriously, the reasons she gave for not joining were lame. And i'm probably the only one who doesn't like the Princess/Krusty relationship dynamic either. But that's alright. |
| I suddenly thought of Lelouch, it is only me? |
| Cute is justice. |
| 5/5 Series from which all possible satisfactions, in all senses, if we talk about plot and narrative, but it makes me sad when I "see" the graphics. Pretty good episode, there is a alternating situations that makes the story a little boring though half filler. Plot so excellent that also fits the part about haters Shiroe! I think from now on should not rush things and postpone everything to a new season, it would be the best way. Not bad the new look of the female protagonists, I was disoriented. |
 |
| That storyteller sounds sketchy, perhaps a potential villan. the slice of life parts were nice too with lots of shipping material. "shall we dance Miss Izuzu?" woah, that was like perfect English when he said that. |
| Rudy Haus is truly the most magnificent character of this show. Cannot believe it's ending so soon ;_: |
| Episode was decent, not much happened, just taking a break and seems like next episode they will kind of take a break from all the action |
| Wanna listen to some good OP/ED songs? Head over to my profile! |
Sourire said: annnnnnnd this anime went back the boring route. wasted potential. What kind of logic made you come to that conclusion buddy? For it's type of series LH has been delivering splendidly. LH has never been about action. We've been saying this since practically forever. If you don't like exposition/character development/world building heavy series then plainly LH is not for you. The second season of SAO is about to air soon so you might wanna hold off for that since the Gungale Online arc is more balls to the wall action than the previous arcs. Don't hold on to the thought that LH will be an action focused series since it wont. And we actually prefer it that way. |

| This is such a great anime, I really hope it gets picked up for a second season because it has such a nice flow and story. |
| Hmmm. It REALLY feels like it will go past 25 eps. I hope they don't rush it, or plan on season 2. If this is based on a light novel or manga (which I am sure it is) they may wait for more material for a S2? |
