Wow, Rudy looks great this episode :D

I thought the episode was alrightKrusty made the impression for me imo this episode. Dat fabulous dance moves.
Nyanta also made the highlight for me too I guess. Akatsuki looked adorable in that dress <3

"Shall we dance". ;o
I was hoping they would do the dance scenes though...oh well. Relaxing episode overall.

Party for a break. A lady(Saito-san)'s storytelling, about what that main guy did to Kakkii's character! That magician researcher found out, too. Though not animated, but Akatsuki got the dance. lol @ that sound magic girl always seeing Kakkii's character as dog, even during the dance.

Rumor says that the main guy is the one who told the princess to stand up for herself, not from another megane guy's influence.

Taiko festival (isn't that supposed to be for summer) soon in the fall. lol @ glass fix when there's no glass on her.

oh yeah dude she was not orginally there in the light novel she appered after the libra festival, but without a doubt that is her and the fact they also mentioned minarmi and the west nobles and the certain guild and ooshima those all point to it,

that means that they are planning to countinue the story, i mean those of us who have read the light novel know the next arc is the libra festival, so they would finish this arc by the last ep, but with the plot points for the Plant hwyadin arc, this is like a message that the guys behind this are also planning to countinue the anime yes yes and yes.

Lol there werequite a few scnes added to this episode that was not in the LN probablyh to fill in the gaps and they were cute

Izuzu and Rudy and the dog i laugh every time

Nyanata and Serera i don't know weather i find it so cute and adorable and the same time a bit disturbing, i really wish they would specify Nyantas exact age.

As i said those subtle hints were of that person and her guild which was not shown until much later oh boy just when u think this series cant get better, why must it continue to excite me so much

"Akatsuki, I leave it to you" = I'm leaving you as bait so Henrietta won't chase me lmao!

Ooh the plot thickens (again). Just from hearing the storyteller talk, I'd say she's mentally unstable. Don't ask me how I arrived at that, it's just a feeling :p But how did she know what happened? She was watching them? Creepy.

Sigh...four more episodes to go. I'm already feeling the blues. I wonder if it's enough to finish whatever arc they're going to do next. Well that means I can finally read the LN but still... :(

Some thoughts about the episode:

Shoryuu looks good in a suit.

Poor Akatsuki and Rudy xD

Krusty is so good at diplomacy. Me lieks. Also the way he hooked Lenessia. "3 times a day of free food and lazying around" would get me too. LOL

The fact that they laid the groundwork about Minami and Westelande earlier than the novels is a good way of not info dumping plot in the last episode as per volume 5. Regan was a great way to do this. :)

And of course the festival. The preview shows Shiroe with a hoodie sweatshirt. I wonder if modern fashions will become used more in the fantasy world? xP

Quite the fun ep with some nice foreshadowing :D I wonder how much will happen in the nxt 4 eps? I don't see the West Festival thing happening. So probably for season 2 which I hope happens (DAMN HOW THE HELL DID IT HAVE BAD SALES >~<) Well LNs are still there for the reading ^^

Akatsuki and Lenessia were so cute this ep <3 Minori looked pretty in her dress too :3

Akatsuki being restless and feeling bad :(...Shiroe saying it's hard to convey ur gratitude was lol XD But well nice dance moment at the end [though we didn't see it] Must've been really bad XD

Lenessia's blushing pouting faces are too much for my heart <3<3...I just love how Krusty keeps teasing her and how she reacts to him reading her mind..."More than 3 days would be troublesome" hahaha :3 Glad she'll be staying at Akiba. We can see more of her now :D The dance was nice too ^^

Shiroe seems to be becoming an anti hero with how a lot of people seem to be talking bad about him behind his back.

The part where Shiroe heard that woman's story was interesting. She's really mysterious. I wonder what she wanted to say before she stopped her story. What a cliffhanger! Also, Seems like there are some people who already know the fact about the new magic and someone already created a new magic in Minami. Now that's interesting. I hope we can see more about that later :)

Festival coming up nxt ^^ Lol'd at Marie's air megane XD

Looks like the story teller is most likely Nureha. I liked the Crusty/Lenessia moments, lovely dance, and Lenessia imagining herself being lazy in bed and eating. Then poof goes her dream after Crusty reads her mind or more like being aware of her habits.

Akatsuki seemed to be depressed as of late for not being able to contribute towards the Goblin fighting, but Shiroe says she's done a lot for him because without her help he wouldn't have been able to gather information.
They dance, but it isn't shown.


I just hope before Log Horizon ends, Akatsuki says to Shiroe her true feelings to him.

Alas, Shiroe and Akatsuki's dance is not animated =( But still the episode does a commendable job in merging the end of volume 4 and the start of volume 5, plus all that foreshadowing of future events.... (actually surprised that "Dariella" appeared so early 0.o)

Yup the two dancing would've been really lovely but I guess they just have to cut any sentimental moments and go straight for the plots. Was surprised about Dariella too - I think I glossed over that chapter and forgot her existence as a traveller.
Also I didn't think she knew the details in the LN.

Confused me because there was no such dialogue. And that chapter would be interesting to adapt in the anime, but it would require a certainty of a second anime season otherwise it would be hanging foreshadowing.

I'm also surprised by the staff packing 5 volumes to 2-cour. Quite a monumental task I must say - on par with Horizon packed 4 super-long volumes to 2 1-cour seasons.

I didn't recognise Isuzu at first. She looked so different from usual. Her impressions of dog-Rundelhaus asking her to dance...

Seems like there's an anti-Shiroe faction developing.

Something is brewing in the west this time. Though I'm not entirely sure what. A city run by one guild, which has also created a new kind of magic. And a special event.

And then that woman telling the story to the kids... are they connected?

I haven't read much on volume 5 on LN but will probably do it soon.
Lenessia and Krusty OMG it's so fun. :)

Shiroe does have a bad reputation, I actually hope it will get better soon.

Lenessia, never trust a man who smooth talks, has a crazy look in battle, can read your mind, wears glasses, and tells you, your new job consists of "3 times a day of free food and lazying around".

Lenessia's pouty face is just HNNGG worthy.

Some people say Henrietta is part of Shiroe's harem, but I don't see any signs yet. Shiroe should give more attention to his adorable assassin.

Some say, the upcoming Libra Festival will show romance. Lots of people giving Shiroe the bad look in the preview. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

alot of talk about Shiroe being a bad guy. Interesting to see what comes of that.

I'm glad Akatsuki finally got her dance with Shiroe. Too bad we didn't get to see it though. I suspect my darling Shiroe was probably pretty bad at it.

Who is the faceless bitch telling stories about how Shiroe revived Rudy? I wonder if she's also spreading these rumors about Shiroe being a villan and schemer behind the scenes. Stop messing with my Shiroe!!!

Only 4 episodes left. My heart is breaking...

It's sort of like when people win a huge lottery, they may not change but everyone else around them change, that sort of thing. He just developed a "god like" power, but he still isn't sure what he can do with it, if people knew what he could do he would be besieged by people making requests, and the resentment towards him would increase even more dramatically.

Shiroe is also thinking a couple of steps ahead, he knows that there are other threats out there, and one should never expose all their cards too early. Plus if everyone knew how strong he had just become, even his allies would become nervous. The people of the land fear the adventurers because of how much stronger they are, the other guilds would start to become nervous thinking that Shiroe and Log Horizon are becoming too strong. And lets face it, the ability to rewrite game rules should scare the hell out of anyone.

As for people hating Shiroe. All too typical. Even on MAL you can see a lot of people who resent the hero of a story merely for being the hero, same principle.

I am very happy this is an NHK show, that means we will probably have a second season in a half a year or so. Disc sales matter little to them.

Wow, calm down on the comments and put your spoiler tag on because not everyone is reading the LN.

I wonder who's the storyteller? Is she an ally or an enemy?

Isuzu to Log Horizon? Another noob to the guild.

More romance from Serara x Nyanta, Crusty x Leinessia and especially Shiroe x Akatsuki ( Their scene was just too cute ).

Is Minori really about to confess there? Are you serious or she doesn't realize that she's just a kid?

I hope that there will be more action in the remaining episodes rather than going for a relaxing type of episodes for an ending.

I guess Shiroe's revive magic began to spread around everyone. The lady was kind of interesting when she was telling those kids a story about the revive spell. Another information for this Demon Festival of Suzaku Gate but not enough detail in this.

Well nothing much happen, just a celebration on the ball room dance. Crusty and Lenessia going back to those love-hate moments, were Crusty is a mind reader XD. Rudy and Isuzu having those awkward moments, while Serara and Nyanta having their cute moment :D. Akatsuki and Shiroe... Damn perfect moment for them. Marielle chooses Naotsugu instead of everyone XD. Next up the Scale Festival Plan.

Lenessia being sent as an ambassador by her grandfather is an interesting and revealing move. In a system of hereditary rule the most important two things are always 1. The Succession and 2. The Succession. By sending her there, he is pretty much offering her to Krusty to cement an alliance and tie the Adventurers and the Cowen royal family together. I just wish we could see as much progress with some of the other ships here.
