| doesnt realy seem to be going anywhere specific |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| Well lots happened but I still need more clarity. Guess I'll have to wait til next episode |
| Mod Note: Please refrain from discussing details from the Light Novels that have not been revealed in the anime yet. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| I really don't get what Roe 2 is thinking. Asking the same questions back to Minori seems like she's evading the question. Also, why the heck are they chatting while many wyverns are attacking and destroying the city? It made me cringe. The episode is a mess and I'm confuse. This side quest of theirs is dragging too much that its started to bored. Good thing we get to see Nyanta fight next episode which I'm looking forward. |
| Cried my eyes out with Tohya's back story. I hope he gets through to the Odessy Knights Roe 2 didn't want to intervene but Minori changed her mind. She, Izusu, and Tohya are fighting for their own reasoning/beliefs. I wonder if Nyanta has a Teaching??? What happen to Dariella? Roe 2 some sort of observer of Elder Tale? |

It seems like none of the individual arcs are related and once one is somewhat resolved it's just dropped and on to the next (after the obligatory town hijinks filler) while in the meantime it feels like nothing was resolved. Did the money situation from the beginning of the season get solved? Does no one care that apparently it's possible to steal invincible magic armor that used to be part of the game's internal policing system and use it to go around wrecking townsfolk indiscriminately? Do they even worry about the disposition of the rest of those suits of armor? What about the goblin raid that has apparently been going on for like two years now? It's just like out of sight, out of mind with this show. No closure to anything. 1. They resolved the money problem but apparently, they did not bother showing them buy the surrounding field as it is already understood given that they already explained it through Kunie and Shiroe's conservation. 2. They already deactivated the magic circle so why worry about those useless armor? If you're talking about other towns, remember that even if it became somewhat of a threat to Akihabara once, the bottomline is it is still a defensive mechanism to avoid PK'ing inside the town. That's why deactivating the circle was a really difficult choice for them. 3. I believe they already resolved it or do you want to see them fight a bunch of goblins that were clearly no match for them? It only became a major thing because it is the first real life "World Event" that they have encountered and apparently, the goblins far outnumbered them due to them not doing any quests. Still, they are no match for them in terms of prowess. Maybe, just maybe, you're missing the point of the show. They decided to create the Round Table to provide "life" into Akihabara since there is no clear answer if they can go back to their real world. Worst case scenario, they will be stuck inside for the rest of their lives so ultimately, understanding the Elder Tale world is their goal. Just like what Roe 2 said, their questions far outnumbered the answers so it's not strange that we're thrown in a loop. The conclusion that you're looking for might be far far ahead as I, myself, also cannot see any closure happening soon. 1. The money thing was never adequately explained on the show. Don't believe me? Go to the thread for the episode in which it happened. 2. The magic circle deactivation did not deactivate the armor, only its teleportation ability. Sorry. 3. As of the last time we heard from Crusty, the goblin war was still in progress, as that's where he was when the incident happened. It's also been mentioned several times this season that that is where the bulk of the city's fighting forces are, still, which is what is leaving them open to the trouble it looks like they may be facing from Plant Hwyaden. Arcs within a show should not only be tied up neatly (or have specific threads left dangling for specific purposes not including authorial laziness) but should also flow smoothly, one into the next. They don't in this show because nothing is related to anything else, it's all just randomness and gaping plot holes. I'm not sure what your last paragraph has to do with anything I said or any point I made at all. Maybe, just maybe, you're throwing up a straw man argument because you have no actual response. I can tell you've been arguing these same points with people all season. It's fine if people disagree with how you feel about something. Let it go. Taking this stuff personally is going to give you high blood pressure, man. |
| Quality Queen. |
| I'm still contemplating whether or not this is the worst sequel to an anime I've ever seen (Between this , Shakugan no Shana, Hayate no gotoku and Higurashi). Seriously though nothing is happening , nothing is getting fleshed out , we are just getting spoon fed a bunch of plot and character "developments" that are wishy washy and don't bring anything to the story. After finishing season 1 I felt as if something epic was going to take place in season 2 and how the things from season 1 would tie in with season 2. Currently we are 19 episodes in. The first 11.5 episodes were spend on pointless rubbish like the gold issue and clearing the dungeon that could have been summarized in 3-4 episodes. (Literally almost NO progression with the plot except for Akatsuki getting a teaching and showing what it looks like when you die). Then there is a stupid cooking episode that also serves no purpose. And now we are watching a stupid side story from some of the most annoying characters (Isuzu , Touhya, Minori) and hearing bad repeats of extremely poor "covers" of songs sung by Isuzu that make me want to punctuate my ears. Honestly I hope this gets better in the last few episodes even though I highly doubt it will. TL;DR DEEEEEEEEN!!!! |
 |
| I literally fell asleep during this episode and when I woke up nothing seemed to have happened, Of course I re-watched it and had to force myself not to fall asleep again it was so boring I really couldn't be bothered with all the pointless crap that came out of everyone's mouth in this episode. Where the hell has this series gone? This episode got a 1/5 from me since it was so pointless but more so for the fact it was so boring even with a swarm of wythens attacking. Just kill these secondary characters please I just hate them so much now, they are such bad characters... |

| So many salty people in here, do you wanna cure this thread or what? I for one liked this episode, and I don't mind "scrub horizon" either, not here and not in the 1st season. Also, I'm pretty antsy about seeing what happens when Shiroe find out about Roe 2 |
| 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 |

This whole low Lv adventure arc got boring on the 2nd episode and the progression is so damn slow that it feels like nothing is happening at all. I want to see Roe 2 and Shiroe meet as well but they are milking the hell out of these stupid secondary characters that I don't care about at all. |
| |
| Tohya was having a hard time in real world, actually sometimes it bothers me that they don't show much about how they were in real world, just few flashbacks... I believe they should put more romance in it...at least it would be more interesting that the most stuff we saw this season...Nyanta could save Serara somehow... |
 |
| I didnt think this season could get any more like dogshit, well I was proven wrong. Im tempted to drop the fucking thing in the second season at ep 19. Ive never done that for gods sake! I also fear I might get an eyesight problem from constantly rolling my eyes to the writing. |
| Hahah Shitty Anime,SAO is a Way better than this ! |

| The animations for the Wyverns at the beginning were top notch. We're getting some minor build-up for the main story, what with Nyanta following the kids around. It's a damn shame they didn't explain more about the ChooChoo Train though. It's episodes like this that make me wish that Roe2 was really a sentient being, like a real person behind that cluster of data and binary formulas. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| So Touya is on a wheelchair in real life. Must be hard on him and that's why he just played Elder Tale and feel like alive again in a world that has his leg put on use. Next episode will be awesome Nyanta battle! |
 |
| A suicide cult, eh? There must always be one. |

| Well contrary to the responses I'm seeing, this was probably one of my favorite episodes in the second portion of the show. I liked seeing the perspective of players who actually wanted to get out and go back to reality. In sharp contrast to Williams, there were people who had everything to lose by staying there. It's really sad and ironic to think that they keep dying in order to see those memories of their loved ones, unaware that they're slowly but surely losing them each time. I've also enjoyed watching the supporting characters grow on this adventure. Tohya really did look pretty cool in the real world, and slamming down the reality of what happened to him makes this game all the more meaningful to him. Isuzu's growth has been a nice treat as well. The idea that the game world is just as real as reality to them and that the characters, NPC or not, are all alive really raises some interesting thoughts on just how meaningful games can be at times. I'm sure if I was still a hardcore gamer, I would have fed right into all of this even more. Now with that all said, I really do think they could have paced this better but I'm not bitter over it. |
 |
| this just keeps getting worse. |
| I liked the movement spell. Wish the drop "II" in Roe II. I mean sure it is to distinguish her from Shiroe but it sounds awkward esp. when they add 'nee-san' at the end of it. So Tohya had a past like that (why am I having this feeling that they told us this in the 1st season? Am I forgetting something?) I don't think that this anime is that boring tbh. It's entertaining tho yeah the pace is sloooow. |
 |
| I'm not a too huge fan of this arc to be honest :/ |
 |
| Too bad, i had hopped Nyanta would drop down right in front of that enemy leader chick, crashing through the trains ceiling, instead of fighting against the "servants" and having to deal with lame old Londark. |
| i feel more for the Odyssey Knights then i do that brat Tohya |
After I Crush Your Dreams...... Your Bones Will Follow...... |
| Palwerful episode also in connection to Tohya's world |
| I actually find Tohya's self-righteousness completely annoying. The knights still cling and treasure their old world, and they have a way to experience it, so who is Tohya to tell them they are wrong, just because he himself does not want to go back? Everyone is acting like the thought and desperation of trying to go back to your fiancee or family is crazy and stupid. This really brings forth the question of whether or not most people have any real attachment to their real lives or they've just taken it for granted and wants to play hero in a fantasy universe. |
| I was willing to see chef in action and he only make appearance at end , stop with damn kids |
 |
| Good episode, although the part with Minori and discussion on who is oneself was a bit overly dramatic. Well, maybe I'm more frustrated that it happened during the raid. Was it really time for that? Best part was with those hardcore knights. I can definitely feel for them. If you have a wonderful live outside of the game, then getting you trapped in here makes you a bit desperate. Touya won't understand cuz' he likes this world a lot better so all of his self-righteous crap falls into water. |
 |
| If you think about it these Odyssey Knights makes much more sense than the other players who pretty much accepted that they live in that game world now. At least they cotinuously try to find a way to go back to the real world. "Only forty-two? That's terrible" man this freckled kid need to set her priorities straight. Games consist only of limited soundtracks and background music what did she expect? This is just pitiful and plain hard to watch. Are the ones responsible for making this stupid filler thinking straight when they decided to make a drama about the game having only 42 songs? Dying mother, getting bullied, girlfriend breaking up with you, slow internet connection damn all these sad things that they could've made drama out of off and they chose this 42 bullshit. "Where am I going?" "What is my wish" these pretentious lines are so lame and these kids are so damn ridiculous. This is why I tend to avoid anime shows with kids in it. So stupid. Just go back to Shiroe and the other please. Really great. In the previous episode at the very last part, they showed Nyanta's about to fight. And at the very last second of this episode just before the ending song started, they showed him fighting. wow this is so fast-paced I can't handle the speed. I'm willing to bet my ps4 that the last second in the next episode they will show Nyanta and the other dude fighting. And in the episode after that, at the last second also, they will show that Nyanta won the fight. |

Onbuu said: *Yawn* Still stuck with B-team... Exactly, this is killing the second season for me. I can't really be bothered with B-team; their characters don't excite me all that much, and the plot they engage in seems relatively unimportant too. Not even the whole 'People of the Land want to wage war' plot were they directly involved in. Get on with the interesting parts already. I want more politics and plotting, more development of characters and plot :p |
     |
| Lol @ Tohya. Lol @ Minori. Lol @ Isuzu. I don't recall Log Horizon being this cheesy.. Okay maybe it was this cheesy, not it wasn't this bad. "Roe2, you're our nee-san, you came from far off, going far away, but you are here right now, right in this moment." *While the wyvern are wrecking havoc in the background. Ayy I am all for that sentimental talk. Agree with most of the rants on this discussion thread. Log Horizon is hitting its low stride. Shame because it used to be good, and it could have been much better. |

| i want Roe2 & Shiroe to meet, that would be hilarious XD |
| Aren't Odyssey Knights under Plant Hwyaden or something? And the Odyssey Knights are volunteering to die since they're immortal, dying and reviving every time just to have the glimpse of the old world in between dying and reviving. Dying lots of time, they must have lost lots of memories too, right? In consequence, eventually they'll forget why they're doing it since they'll have no memory of the old world. What the hell is empathion? Empathy-thing? The memories Adventurers give up when they die and revive? Or whatever Roe 2 is spouting...who the "f" is Roe 2 anyway?!!! |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Wyverns attacked the town and the Odyssey Knights started fighting with them in a chaotic way. In Plant Hwyden's train, the members kind of experiment with NPCs to create monsters. The leader from Odyssey Knights ordered his soldiers to use the buildings to destroy the monsters, Tohya confronted him about his decision and revealed that he's in wheelchair in real life. Rudy, Isuzu, Roe2 and Minori are prepared to help. Nyanta arrived and started to fight with the nightshade servants. Worst monologue ever, I don't know if it was the subs, but I couldn't understand a phrase from Roe at the end, it was senseless. |
 |
| what a fucking mess of a season what a mess of an animation budget almost 20 episodes in and i'm not really feeling any of it i hope this is not a sign of things to come with what started off as a pretty good anime |
 |
| Not a fan of this arc. Too dragging and too emo for my taste. I'm glad to see Nyanta! but then again, it was like only a glimpse of him. I hope to see more of him next episode and I just yearn for this arc to end! |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| Finally some quite "decent" character development, I guess the dude at the end is the one who sent the wyvenrs |
 |
| This season was a little on the down side for me after the dungeon raid as they focused a little more on the SoL perspective. However, Tohya and Isuzu saved this episode. Minori perfect rival for Akatsuki. Roe 2 seems like a doppelganger or something, and Rudy was just great👍 |
 |
| Sounds like everyone found their resolve...so time for the big battle. |
 |
| Its looks like Plant Hwyaden just a bunch of mess without any clear intentions, especially with Nureha's disappearance. The knight Lander took control over the train and decided to berserk, making the city under a difficulties. This episode cleared out that Nyanta actually assigned to observed the kids. However, since that disturbance happened, he couldn't report back and decided to took the action alone. The confrontation within Touya and that Odyssey knight was quite informative. They were all the one that Shiroe mentioned before. They wanted to go back, but they couldn't until they acted like a crazy dog. Meanwhile, the resolution already been achieved by Isuzu that she will be more determinated than before. Then, Minori might also forget to ask Roe2 the origin and trying to focused to the battles again. When Serara? She kept adorable behind the scene.... Its actually kinda all over the places with all of those different perspectives. Touya, Minori, Isuzu, and beside them, there were a side chars such as Serara, Nyanta and the peoples inside the train that actually had their own proportions of the talk. However, since its already straight-forward, lets see how far they wrapped up that convoluted situations.... |
