| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this was worth waiting for after the buildup. It looks like Tohya's group isn't the only ones who wants to fight some wyverns. Cool to see Nyanta unleash some of his skills as well. Damn right that cat can fight. Lol, I find Rudy's presence in this episode to be welcoming as well despite the grim situation they are facing. And not to mention, he has a useful alleviating spell. One thing I did find interesting though is how Tohya doesn't like the tactics the Knights are using to get the job done. I definitely agree with Tohya considering his past life also saw him witness pain. |
 |
| Everyone's feeling and decision of surviving this world and to be wished to back to original world through what they can do. Was that cat guy to the rescue? And that hooded man at the end... More battles next. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Quite a good episode, was kind of deep at points I thought, which wasn't a bad thing. Those knights are crazy for sacrificing themselves like that! Tohya sure showed him.. We got to see real life Tohya yayy! But that past tho :/ Looking forward to Nyanta-san fighting next episode. |
 |
| Pretty good Episode. Can't wait to see Nyanta in action! Also pretty unique way of riding that pony without a saddle XD |
| *Yawn* Still stuck with B-team... |

STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| The return of Londark - the former right hand man of Demikas. His duel against Nyanta next episode will be great. |
 |
| Finally we will get some Nyanta action! |
| Nyanta in action next episode :) . Stupid knights think that they will someday return to the new world by dying over and over again... Besides, every time you die, you lose memories so in the end you won't have any memories left from the real world? |

GSupernova said: First off, how are the Odyssey Knights motivated by wanting to return to the real world when dying causes you to lose your memories? I think we can be safe in assuming they've died countless times thanks to suiciding themselves as a cathartic release. If the memory loss is so insignificant that their leader can remember everything about his old life, why is anyone worried about dying in the first place? Second, it bewilders me how a town can be attacked by an army of wyverns and everyone finds time to stand around and talk to one another. While countless people die. Overall, I'd say this episode is even worse than the last. I'm not saying this anime needs to be action packed but there's a time and a place for long monologues and exposition and the middle of a life or death situation isn't it. Totally agree. |
| Man, I'm starting to feel the negative effects of watching an ongoing anime rather than marathoning it once it's done. Had to rewatch a couple of previous episodes to understand the involvement of all the Plant Hwyaden members. Their motivations have not yet been made clear though. |
| Them knights going hardcore and dying just to return to the real world. Although, wouldn't they lose their memories each time they keep dying? Minori ticked me off here. She tells Roe 2 that Tohya will be ok and stand up by himself. Umm she sure is taking the situation lightly. She doesn't see that the knight is manhandling Tohya? The highlight of the episode was Nyanta getting into action. Nyanta ftw |
 |
| I was kinda annoyed at Minori just standing there having an existential chat with Roe 2 in the middle of a battlefield... She always wants to help but then here she's just wondering who she is and where she's going?? Couldn't she choose another time? Anyway Nyanta-san was cool! even though we only saw him for a few seconds xD |
| The Knights are noob MMO players tbh. Though all the technology they are showing and the like just had me going What in the Fuck, at this episode. |
| Odyssey Knights are indeed fools for willingly suiciding themselves. But I think they'll be fine, since they're not losing memories even after dying countless times. I was hoping to see Nyanta taking on the Wyverns. Well, we'll see him in action next episode and it'll probably be even more epic against Londark. Decent episode. Only Tohya and Serara did some work, while Minori, Isuzu and Rudy didn't practically anything. |

Yea I feel the same except I don't rewatch anything, I just rely on my memory and hope that I can remember and connect all the pieces. |
| Ehhhh I feel like this episode was supposed to be deep. but it just came off as boring. |
| Be sure to message me if you quoted me and want me to respond! Just give me a link to the forum, because usually I leave my comment, then leave the forum. |
| Another crap episode with the token bard song... Hopefully something we get a decent showdown next week with the real cast. |
 |
| So those Odessy Knights just wanna go home, nice Tohya's backstory. |
| yeo |
| sooo much Nyanta hypee |
ami7mina said: Is it just me or the direction of this second season is not well executed, there are plenty of scenes, and sides that it's confusing, they introduce plenty of characters with no real emotional depth and much background, all they have is an agenda. Even in the first season it's like that, but at least it was not focused on that part much. Therefore it is better than this, I feel like every episode in the second season has a different direction. Can they stick to one theme in a single season? They spread the stories out so much that the focal point is missing. First, it was the guild raid, for that money, wasted a few episodes just for negotiations.. for what? Then it was that guild leader that disappeared together with the sword.. for what? Then it was that assassin and all about learning true hidden skills.. for what? Then there's this shape-shifting character and there's this Roe 2 that have misdirected the focal point. For what? I keep saying for what ultimate purpose? To get out of the game and into real life? Sure, that would probably be the ultimate goal, but why all the unnecessary plot that I have mentioned earlier? Just to confuse? Just for added content? They are like filler hiding itself in a nice storyline but not the main storyline. You know what I am saying? Watching this is getting to be a drag. Are they even selling or they just want to finish that whole 25 episodes? They better make it better than the first season. It's already episode 19! Wasted all those early episodes for what? They won't all be answered when episode 25 comes. This pretty much sums up the frustration with this season. 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. |
| Quality Queen. |
| Well this episode is way better than last episode. Now more action coming in next week episode. Still don't know what is Roe 2 and why she is like a "female" Shiroe. |
 |
| Still waiting for them to stop focusing on the filler crew *sigh* |
| This show has become so bad, I feel my brain is rotting. |
| Translation seems a bit lacking this episode, but, I think Roe2 was suggesting that memory loss is minimised when dying and reviving many times in quick succession via the Temple of Boreas. Oddyssey Knights seem like Silver Sword's opposite. They have lives in the old world that they want to return to. They consider what they see when they die to be a dream, while Silver Sword sees it as a nightmare. |
| No time to be talking, they need defeat all the enemies before they destroy the city and kill the villagers... Also very emotional episode! :) |

| At least now there some action and also for the next episode. |

dobinz said: they need to hire new screen writer. good story can easily ruin by bad screen writing Log Horizon is very great example for this. also DEEEEEEEEEEEEN  I agree. The sequence of the scenes is horrible and the pacing is so slow. I like the new designs but the animation turns me off so much. The story is still awesome though. One thing though, season 1 has the same problem, imo, but still it managed to grab my attention which brings up the question, was LH light novel so godly that even if it was badly executed, it still remained as one of the most awesome animes? :D shout out: SAO fans? XD |
| I'm more curious who Roe2 really are *_* Finally ... we'll get to see Nyanta's action in the next eps. |
| What a messy episode. Seems like the Odyssey Knights have their reasons why they keep dying. Because of that, Tohya gets pumped up and then inspires the rest to make their moves. So it'll be a Londark vs Nyanta battle next, with an intervention from some chick. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |
| I still continue to hate this season. |

| Thankfully the Odyssey Knights still can coherently put their thoughts together and aren't just completely insane. They serve a purpose. I thought they were just going to be zombified fighters. |

They won't all be answered when episode 25 comes. Honestly since season 1, the whole anime has been a waste of time. I have no idea why people keep saying log horizon is what SAO should have been. I made a post in season 1 last episode thread in mal. I mention that the whole of season 1 feel like a prologue and someone explain to me that can't be help since the source material was the same. I accepted that since season 2 was announced together with the last episode. Fast forward to season 2 episode 19, I am still not getting much of a story out of this anime. WTH. Basically season 1 shows shiroe meeting that mage and figuring out how to write new contract and till now in season 2, there has been no progression. Sure we are definitely moving onto something since we are near the end of season 2, but I don't agree log horizon is a good anime, at the very least with regards to plot content. Even wiki give more story then the anime /facepalm I guess that means the source material is one hell of a long drag. Just read up on roe2 and anyone can see that even after season 2, log horizon(anime) hasn't even begin to get into the story. |
| Season 1 - great Season 2: 1st cour - great Season 2: 2nd cour - absolute dogsh*t Pacing pissed me off Cryptic talk pissed me off Isuzu, Minori, Tohya (especially) pissed me off. Seriously, what a self-righteous little sh*t. I hate everything about him. Obviously likes playing the hero since he's completely useless in "reality". I can't wait for this season to end. |

| Those kids' journey was meaningless from the start (not that the whole season makes sense) and they're still doing it... I'm just so disappointed with this season, this is not what I was hoping for. Give Shiroe back! |
 |
| Uh...I hope the whole arc with the kids ends soon. It's getting tiresome, despite them getting a decent amount of character development. Next week we get to see more of Nyanta, so there's that. |
