| Shiroe awesome as usual still not liking rudy's personality for now |

YOU CAN'T DATE WITH THIS DEMON Shiroe PLZ SAVE US This is my exact thought he may be hot but he's a complete sociopath. The whole package handsome, charming, clever, and murderous. How could we not all love him. <3 Dwelling around in the interview, Mamare explained something that really caught my attention: (Refering to the "tick" characters with glasses have) "It's a gesture that shows that they're a true villain inside." We get to know that Shiroe is the devil, making soul contracts. We get to know Krusty has his psycho side. I am still waiting to see Henrietta 's devil side. AKATSUKI RUN! |
| OMG!! This episode was absolutely beautiful and amazing!! http://imgur.com/zWUBlmo Shiroe, you are one brilliantly sexy BAMF!! I've lost count of how many times I've actually fallen in love you. I want you to revive me in the Cathedral, but my method of choice is mouth-to-mouth. Shirtless Crusty FTW!! Though, I think he may have been enjoying the battle a little too much. http://imgur.com/6ggS1go http://imgur.com/jW60c2t I'll never be able to look at him the same way again. No matter how "normal" he appears, he's going to always look blood drunk to me from now now. So glad Rudy is alive. He and Miss Isuzu are just adorable together. Watching them interact really makes me smile. Sent with Mal Updater |

| Goblin King vs Krusty ? Fsss... One blow was enough. Rudy became an adventurer ^_^ |
 |
| Hooray, my favorite character will be sticking around! ;u; I may or may not have teared up a bit... Also, the final "paw" moment at the end was precious, ugh. |

He and Miss Isuzu are just adorable together. Watching them interact really makes me smile. I agree! I am seriously concerned about Krusty haha. He like the fight. I love this anime even if there is no fighting! |
| Sorry! I must admit I am confused most of the time. Feel free to recommend anime to me, or tell me to shut up. |
| honestly the whole Rudy and Isuzu thing is making me gag why didn't they put a romance tag on this anime if I wanted to watch a romance anime I would have looked one up, my god I want more action not no romance, seriously this anime needs to focus more on the main character Shiroe I feel like he has been pushed back to being a side character except for this episode he actually had some screen time finally maybe this anime isn't so good in sales because the whole romance thing that was poorly developed -gags some more- this is just my opinion people if your supporters of that couple that's your choice |
 |
| This is like MMORPG world suddenly upgraded to permament real life experience + adding the minecraft feature to be able to create anything as long as u have the right tools to do so xD .... first we get the wooden pick axe then we master cooking , invent steam engines , build ships and now we can make nonplayer characters into players :D |

LH HAS NEVER BEEN AN ACTION SERIES!!!!!! I have no idea how many times I've clarified this out to people anymore. And it's a montage style series w/ different characters given the spotlight. It doesn't center on Shiroe alone but he is the central plot mover. Get used to it. Or drop the series. Your call. @Always-Hungry That wasn't the Goblin King. That was the Goblin General. The king's still sitting pretty in Seventh Fall. The adventurers will stage a legion raid on it in the next major arc w/c sadly won't be animated. |

| Wow, it was effective. Rudy became an adventurer. I wonder how this will affect the natural laws of the Elder Tale now. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Yeah, that's how you cheat death - with real foreshadowing and story development. Suck it SAO. That cracked me up at the end when Miss Isuzu is like "give me your paw." Oh and Crusty is freakin' awesome - megane with a lust for battle. His psycho face was priceless. |
 |
| Well finally a better than average episode, this was even intriguing. Been maaaaany episodes since last time this happened (at least to me). |
| aw that ending was cute. this episode was solid 5/5 thats some hack magic though |
    |
| Yay Rudy is back and he's now an adventurer :D Pretty sweet ending. deenszx said: Leio said: Krusty's awesome as always. xchee said: *Shiroe presents the contract* "1.

But of course, time in an anime is on a different dimension. I rewatched it again and yeah it took almost 6 minutes from when Rudy opened his eyes and after he sign the contract but yeah this is anime, different dimension than it looks in the anime. That reminds me of how in Hajime no Ippo when someone gets a down and like 10-15 seconds pass irl only 1-3 have passed in the anime xD |

| Dat shirtless Krusty Im glad that Rudy is now an adventurer, he was too good to kill off. |
| Great episode as usual! Shiroe changed the world's rules to save Rudy, so I'm sure something else major will have changed in the world too. Krusty killing the Goblin King felt too quick, but I guess the goblins weren't actually the main focus of this arc. The ending with Isuzu and Rudy was way too cute. |
Forgetfulness said: Huh. Wow, I figured they would just make it one of those DEM revives, but Shiroe did that and went more in-depth with the world building and effects. Impressive, Log Horizon Also, did anyone else think Krusty's finisher looked like Darius's ultimate from League of Legends? lol I'm wondering how this series will end; the main story looks like it could go on for quite a while I thought I was the only one who thought that. Krusty's one crazy dude... the glasses are hiding the demon that lurks within. |
 |
| krusty has a demon behind his glasses, big deal, hes justa fighting nut in the end shiroe has something greater and more unworldy behind his glasses |
| Why is this anime so perfect? =3 (overexaggeration, yes, but I really did love this episode) |
| These faces are so cute that I might just leave them here (#`Д´)´∀`)･ω･) ﾟДﾟ)ﾟ∀ﾟ)･∀･)￣ｰ￣)´_ゝ`) |
| So.... as long as they do it manually: -chefs can make food not originally in the game (like Crescent burgers) -blacksmiths can build stuff not originally in the game (like steam engines) -scribes can create magical documents not originally in the game that do stuff like change a character's class ? Not sure why Shiroe had to put everything else in that contract aside from bestowing the title of "adventurer" on Rudy. Would that just have been too boring? Isuzu's really cool for going all the way to the cathedral to admonish and punch Rudy for almost getting killed. ^^ The final shot of them might have made a nice desktop background if the windows weren't so bright. This anime occasionally has some -really- nice art. |
Takata said: Not sure why Shiroe had to put everything else in that contract aside from bestowing the title of "adventurer" on Rudy. Would that just have been too boring? Well it is an official contract that binds 2 of the signing parties forever, Shiroe needs to make it fair, very specific and loophole-free. The contents: Thanks to "AnimeFan500" 1. Effective as of the date and time which Rundel Haus Code signs this document, Shiroe accepts him as a member of the guild Log Horizon. 2. As a member of the guild Log Horizon, Rundel Haus Code will fulfill his missions in a manner befitting his position. 3. Log Horizon will provide Rundel Haus Code all necessary support required for his missions, to the greatest extent acceptable to both parties. This includes bestowing the status of “adventurer.” Lets say: If Number 1 does not exist, when will Rudy be a member of Log Horizon? After he dies? As soon as he is revived? heck, if it's not immediate than he would've died first before becoming an adventurer, as the prerequisite is becoming a member of Log Horizon. If number 2 does not exist, Rudy will have no obligation to the Guild itself, and can do whatever he wants, this also makes him possible of quitting Log Horizon since he's not obligated to it. |

 |
| Wow damn, it took me a minute to realize that he used his scribe thing... I never would've expected something like that to be used in such a way. That was seriously an amazing twist. I really love the world-building in this series... the author definitely knows how to get creative with it too. By far one of my favorite episodes of the season. It's kind of funny thinking that Rudy went from Dead to Undead to Dead again to Alive all in one episode. If only that could've happened for my favorite Warcraft (III) character... Have to say Krusty's grin makes me worried that he's like a serial killer in real life or something, lol. Though I just realized he's a berserker class so it makes a lot of sense, but still... that smile. |
| Oh snap , I think this was the best LH episode , if only every episode was like this ... |
 |
| I have been holding back for a while but I think it is the best moment for the anime to get a deserved 10/10. Best ongoing anime right now. |

| "Give me your paw" - she *really* thinks of him as a dog now. Even that scolding before was more appropriate to train your dog than anything else. And why was Shiroe so sure it would work? Sure, he can sign contracts, maybe even binding contracts like "you have to do xy before you can leave the guild". I could even imagine changing a characters class, "hiring" someone as chef, as bodyguard, whatever. But making an "NPC" into an adventurer? Of course, it might have been worth trying even without any real perspective on it working, but why was he so sure it would work? And the contents.. was it necessary to bind him to the guild? I would assume it wasn't. Why would the contract need to be binding forever? As long as Rundel does not revert back (and most likely not even then, as he would not be on the verge of death in that moment) he would not die. And just because he does no longer directly serve Log Horizon/Shiroe wouldn't necesarily mean the status of "adventurer" would be gone, too. Just think of knighthood/peerage. The sovereign has to actively deprive someone of knighthood or peerage, and is usually even restricted in doing so. There even have been cases where people where deprived of knighthood, but could not be deprived of their peerage, because of these restrictions. Even in the case of high treason, it would be an act of reliving someone of his titles, and not an automatism. Applying the same reasoning to the status of adventurer, Shiroe could have granted Rundel this status for his service during the war and obliged him to continue to fight for Log Horizon/the round table until the war was over (with the goblin king being defeated, or a peacy treaty being made etc. He would either stay adventurer (likely, given how nobility works, which is the closest thing, and that there is nobility that works just like in real life), or he would return to being a person of the land, continuing his life just like before. Of course, in the later case he might die for good the next time he is killed, unless such a contract is made again, but that doesn't change the requirements for the contract itself. Basically the contract was like this simply so Shiroe would have control over Rundel, which is an understandable desire, given both Rundel's status, and the investment Shiroe made. |
| I understand the whole contract thing, but are we really considering that a new form of magic? |
My Candies:     |
| Great episode, I like the concept. |
 |
| Awesome. The war is over. Looking forward to seeing where the story will go from here. |

5layer said: Awesome. The war is over. Looking forward to seeing where the story will go from here. Not really over. they haven't killed the king, but already have complete control on them. This also serves as a "quest source" for the Adventures, and that's the reason why they didn't annihilate all the goblins. |

| I think the confusion is coming from the fact that people keep saying Rudy joining the guild was the reason he's now an adventurer. I'm pretty sure he just added that to the contract so he didn't have to make a second contract just so he could join the guild. It doesn't say "because you are in Log Horizon you're now an adventurer", it's just basically saying: In exchange for joining their guild (which is what Shiroe gets out of it), he's granting him the title of adventurer. Joining the guild did not grant him Adventurer status, the contract did. Rudy joining the guild is just the price he has to pay for Shiroe giving him the status. |
| Shiroe finally find an use of his scribe class xD Legit hacking because gm, aka the warrior of Izumu, are nowhere to be found. Crusty mad faces are priceless. The princess totally want the D and Crusty will probably go for the C. |

| First the cooking, then the inventing, now there is game changing/rule breaking contract signing. Man that scribe subclass is something. Who knows what next right? And then there is Crusty. He instantly jump into my fav character in the anime status. Gentleman at parties, badass at the battlefield. I just want to know what his life like in the real world (same too all characters too). |
