so Shiroe taking over the guild hall is able to counter the large battle guilds and that is why the merchant guild, and the small guilds are with him on that plan. It's the current way to maintain status quo...

so the round table has formed...and the NPC has decide to make their move...also everyone benefits from the round table except for the bad people...

the small guilds won't have to worry about the battle guilds hoarding spawn spots cause they will police each other, the merchant guilds can make money, and newbs and low level won't be exploited for the exp pot

And the battle guild has a goal that benefit the merchant guild, only the battle guilds have enough man power to go out and EXPLORE the new world, and only the merchant guild has the manpower to buy and sell the information to everyone else for a profit, everyone wins.

small guild - Buy info on safe spot.
Merchant guild - Buy and sell material and info from battle guild
Battle guild - Go out and explore the new world, and spend money in Akihabara's food and other daily living stuff, such as bath and onsen.

And you guys will soon meet the Valkyrie armored princess in the opening....can't wait for the reaction to her real personality.

Yep, she'll be the first major NPC that we can see and hopefully see her reaction at seeing the difference in personality and ability of adventurer and natives.

And compare her real personality and how people expect her to be based on the end of ep.10 and the opening..www

Haha, so I've herad.

Finished 10.

Loving this series. It's by far my favorite show this season. All other shows either fell through and last what charm they had at the start, or just weren't that entertaining.

So it starts the training for the novice at the beach, but get caught between two monster army(Goblin King and Sea King) and the NPC Eastern Kingdom trying to learn more about Akiba.
We get another look at the princess, but no line from her yet, next episode will probabely be the beach dungeon focused.
While on the Native kingdom, we'll see more of how the Adventurer differ, we already got some hint when the common Native bowed to the aristrocrat NPC, that's not somthing that the adventurer are familiar with.
So Shiroe's dance trouble, as the native show off t heir kingdom through dancing.



They changed the swimsuit of mariane from the novel, but that's NHK

I also like these three origional addition by the anime team, they are used for the viewer to see what the normal adventurer of Akiba is up to.

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye out for them every episode since they got caught PKing. It's funny, because even without much dialogue I feel we've seen quite a bit of development from them in the way they've been used. I agree, they did a great job with using them to represent regular adventurers.

so...the natives already have life and sentience prior to the great calamity, and death is permanent for them. So does that mean the same for quest NPC's? and if they die...is the quest permanently gone or will a new npc/native take over the role?

*remember elder scroll and the unkillable npcs*

Pretty much, you'll learn more to what happened before the calamity, and how the Adventurer interacted with the "NPC"

Only complaint~
They took out Akatsuki practicing dancing and Shiro seeing it, after seeing Shiroe and Heneriatta dancing.
Maybe they'll still put it in next episode
Posted Image

Other then that, great episode as usual, they kept the dancing as the rthym game, and that it shows off the musical note appearing, and the novice party training is more entertaining then the novel one.
Akatsuki spoiled the princess's personality for the viewer though wwww

Crusty's new shield will stay with him for awhile~
And now people will now know why he's called mind reader glasses.

The princess finally speaks~ her voice is cute too~
They added in the Akatsuki dance scene, we get more focus on the adult group, only a glimpse of the novie group.
The disappearance of the Izuma Knight Brigade is important, they are "Native" Hero NPC, aka. They are as strong, if not stronger then the adventurer city Akiba.

Regun the sage makes a appearance, he finally meets the great Enchanter Shiroe he's been searching for, to unravel the secret of the world.

Another good episode, what's the guild's thought?

Can't watch it yet, the sub isn't out yet. =/

But I'm glad it actually aired though and not cancelled for New Years programming like Kill la Kill and the other shows.

Finally saw it. It's the 1st episode I've really enjoyed since the end of the Akihabra take over.

And it especially a nice change of pace that Shiroe took a back seat and Classy Shiroe got some screen time.

The NEET Princess was also great.

I'm really enjoying the Crusty/Princess dynamic quite a bit, but I can't wait for the next big plot to start. It seems clear that the NPC monsters will become pretty important pretty soon here, and I really want that conflict to start.

Finished the episode.

Nothing major really happened, but it was still great from an information stand point.

One thing that has bugged me about the franchise though.

Unlike .hack// and SAO, No one in Log Horizon has really bought up much less thought up what the hell is going on in the real world. Like, are their bodies all dead in the real world, or their minds just stuck in the game, did the real world end, Where they actually sucked into the game, etc.

They're smartly staying away from it. It'd just be those two all over again if it focused on it at all.

Just started 15.

And coincidentally skipped , the 1st 15 minutes into it.

The stupid training thing just drags on and is a waste of time. Serara has her adorable moments in the start, but the rest of the brats I could hardly care about. Spending over half an entire episode on them feels like filler at it's worst.

I want my NEET Princess, dammit!

You missed the beginning of the next story arc them. If you already got halfway through, you already watched all the training stuff anyway.
