| Pretty good episode, i honestly didn't think his guild name would be log horizon but i'm cool with it lol. |
| The moment when you realize his guild is the reason why the anime is named "Log Horizon". I'm so excited, I hope he saves the twins :3 |
Ambient_ said: yup, that's a pretty big hole in game designI'm surprised that exp pots aren't character bound. That's a huge oversight by the creators. They would be abused by any mmo with an auction house, especially since they're free and you get them every day. I'm surprised that this whole issue is even being called "cheating", if this is how it's always been :/ but guess in elder tale there aren't character bound items, boh (story needs something to drama about) so shiroe is gonna take a stance over a whole city, that's gonna be a big plan wonder what happened before to make him unwilling to join guilds, and why the marie was so happy/relieved about him finally changing mind, guess it has something to do with the tea party and maybe a bad outcome he caused once |

| Does anyone else feel is kind of ridiculous how he talks about his past in the game like it is some serious dramatic life-changing shit? It's just a fucking game dude. I realize that right now it might seem serious businesses since now it's basically their life but those past events where just simple gaming. Why is he so serious about those? |
| I can understand Shiroe's way of thinking, about "i don't want to join any guild" perfectly. Guilds are nice and all, but ther are two sides to every coin. Guilds can advance you greatly, or they shackle you down. In addition, it's never easy to deal wiith people as an introvert, even less so with quite a lot of people you don't know, and never will, because they are always changing. The Debauchery Tea Party on the other hand was a close-knit group of friends, without the constant coming and going and all the other formalities of a guild, at least from what they've shown. |
| I was wondering what those vials were for. |

| So now Shiroe have got into action. Niiiiice. So that's where the anime title come from. It's a cool name. Glad that Shiroe made peace with his view of a guild. Awwwn, I really wanted to see Akatsuki in one of those dress :( Would have been hilarious xD |

| I kinda guess that the name of his guild would be log horizon but it still gives me goosebumps and ALMOST brought a tear in my eye. Yup that moment, that feels. :) |
| They are drawing a lot of inspiration from mmorpg experiences, but the way they deliver this information to the viewer seems heavy handed. Granted that the viewer might not be familiar with mmorpgs, but even so, there's a lot of explanations. Such as player exploits, which they translated as "cheating", where players finds some sort of loot hole in the design of the game. Obviously, this sort of design wouldn't have slipped through any actual game, seriously an item immensely increases EXP gain, and stats boost, and is tradable? F2P games would monetize those as cash shop items, for good reasons. The guild seclusion is also part of any mmorpg community. It's quite easy to actually weave those into any story or character because its just niches and personalities. There will always be conflicts between guilds, conflicts within guilds, freeloaders in guilds, guild elitist, and people who don't even want to be in guilds. They even went to explain crafting early on throughout several episodes, which seems out of the blue. Though from this episode, I'm pretty sure it's going to play a roll in the guild making money by monopolizing delicious food. Even at the end of episode 6, I fell like the series has only started to take the first step towards some sort of story progression. Episode 1-5 was more or less still setting up characters and the universe they are in. I hope they start to pick up the pace soon or I'll be falling asleep in the middle of each episode. |
| That ending was great! So he finally made a guild and well we now know where the name comes from :p Pretty nice development and I'm sure what comes next will also be great! |
 |
| So that's where the title came from |
| If you want everything you'll end up with nothing. |
| Hehe makes sense for the anime name. Also I am so frickin' glad that the episode was indeed about saving them 2. And it seems it was about saving the online reality and Shirio too. |
 |
| Good episode finally made a guild |
 |
| The chills down my spine when Shiroe announced he made a guild & named it Log Horizon.... EPIC! |
| I totally got super hungry while watching the beginning of this episode and went to go cook food. |
| Men always seem to think about their past before they die, as though he were frantically searching for proof that he truly lived. |
| How did I not expect the guild's name to be Log Horizon!? It gave me goosebumps for some reason. I like the development of Shiroe. He's now taking action instead of holding back to get rid of guilds that exploit others. He kind of reminds me of Lelouch. And from the way Akatsuki narrated the preview, are they gonna sell burgers (with actual burger taste) to get the 5 million. |

| And there it is. |
| Hmm interesting,Shiroe formed a guild and i never expected that Log Horizon will be it's name. |
  |
| "Log Horizon". It begins. |
| I want my Akatsuki in a summer dress! Hmm, for the Crescent Moon Alliance, they previously mentioned they had nineteen members, however the picture only showed about seventeen of them. Could the remaining two people be some OP characters or something? With the mentioning of guild names like DDD, Black Sword Knights, and Silver Sword, I'm expecting guild wars. However, before that happens, Shiroe has to save the twins by kicking Hamelin out of the town. But who could blame Hamelin for getting exp pots especially when the level cap increased? Although, five million gold is a lot. But they have apparently have a restaurant next episode. Dat title drop. Log Horizion is the name of their guild! (^_^) |
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. |
| "We Are Log Horizon" Just epic... loving this show |
| Log Horizon, of course! It had to be the name of guild. Glad he finally started a guild. :) |
| Woahh that's a cool episode. Log Horizon.. fuhhhh. They have some really cute beauties in this game lol. |
Amarrez said: That title drop |
| "It's name is... Log Horizon." Roll the credits! Anyway,pretty great episode.Let's see what he is planning... |
| That build up at the end was awesome. So this is why it's called Log Horizon heh c:, should be an epic guild o/ Akatsuki cute as usual :3 Now to make some money by selling tasty food ^^, guess that's why he wants to keep it a secret how it's made. Wonder if more members of DTP will join Log Horizon in the future. Great episode, I like where this is going. |

| Damn, Shiroe actually makes a guild and it looks like hes ready to clean up the streets. Shits about to go down next episode. Also I loved that ending, where just as he reveals the name of the guild the ED starts playing, awesome. |
 |
| Awww...why not the debauchery tea party? |
 |
| No action at all but the dialogue kept my interest the entire time. I especially loved the conversation between Shiroe and the Cat, it had a certain weight to. Shiroe's decision to finally form a guild was also surprisingly moving, considering he's just talking about his past in terms of a darn game. I like the detail of the world, the factionalizing and claiming of resources, etc. It makes the setting feel real and vibrant. I'm curious to see what Shiroe's plan is. I'm not sure how you defeat a guild per se, considering they just respawn in the very same town. Or maybe he's got something less direct in mind. What was up with the conversation when the lady was filling Shiroe on the city's situation? First she was on a couch, then a bed, then a couch? Were they trying to mix it up visually or is Shiroe just that smooth an operator? |
| Well, I was not expecting it to turn out so motivating jaja, I wasn't expecting that end! Ok, they explain now how they were farming those kids, ok ok, I get it now. Again, the way he announced that his Guild was called Log Horizon was so perfect xD I mean, it gave me chills! Good one, good one. This feels promising, looking forward to more. |

| This series would have felt more authentic if the guild was named "Debauchery_Tea_Party_2" And where are all the player's called something like noobkillah and teabagger_1996. |
| And so it begins! Wonder what his aim is with the 5 million, seems it's considered a HUGE amount of money since the Moon guild only has 60k in the guild bank. |
 |
| This got x10 better, and the ost was amazingly great. |
| So he's going to save Akihabara from it's own darkness? Oh yeah become the hero you were destined to be! XD His very own guild eh? His own guild...sound like Nine's Own Goal, uhmm Ainz Ooal Gown. LOL |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| The guild had a party. Marie talked with Shiroe about the unbalance created by strong or big guilds, specially talking about one that abuses of exp potions. Shiroe is worried about the siblings, so he contacted Minori, the sister, to ask her some questions. Shiroe started his mission with Naotsugu and Akatsuki, and Marie’s guild decided that they’re gonna help him. An arc finishes and another starts, the guilds are out of control now. Slow paced, as far as I can notice, there is no objective at all, or ambitions, just solving the problems. |
 |
| Ok, I'm happy now that the lvl cap did increase up to 100 thanks to the new expansion. In summary, Shiroe has thought up a genius plan to cleanse the city of its filth and potentially even put the entirety of Akihabara under his control?! Yeah... This is getting more exciting! Big guild control town and asserts dominance over smaller, weaker guilds? Not for long! It's about time he attempts to put his intellectual mind to some REAL USE. And it's also about time for him to finally be in a Guild! Log Horizon guild ftw. |
