Log Horizon	comment	"Elder Tale" is an established MMORPG set in a post-apocalyptic version of Earth where magic and fantasy have grown over the ruins of the previous world. On the day that a new expansion pack was scheduled to become active, every single player logged into the server suddenly found themselves within the world of Elder Tale. Most of the game functions are still active and "death" simply revives the player at their last home point. But in every other sense, the world is "real" and hundreds of thousands of players are now trapped in what used to be a game.With no indication of how or why this incident occurred, the players of Elder Tale must learn how to survive in this strange new world while they look for a way home.Log Horizon is a series of Light Novels written by Mamare Touno (author of Maoyu); originally a Web Serial Novel that was first posted on the website Shousetsuka ni Narou in 2010, it was picked up for print publication in 2011 with illustrations by Kazuhiro Hata, and Mochichi Hashimoto providing the monster designs. It has been adapted into a 2-season anime series which aired on NHK from October 2013 to March 2015. It can be watched legally on Crunchyroll, for people living in the following areas: UK, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America, Scandinavia, and the Netherlands. A third season was later announced in January 2020 with an October 2020 release, though it was later delayed to January 2021.Though similar in premise to the well-established and well-known .hack and Sword Art Online franchises, Log Horizon is notable in several ways: it takes great care to explain the internal logic and mechanics of the game world, player death is treated as a relatively minor inconvenience, and it is very focused on the lifestyle aspects of the various characters as they all adjust to living in this strange space. The drama of dying in the game world doesn't exist, and so the plot can instead center on how they settle into their new lives in the game, which has a whole host of preexisting rules, laws, and societies to make things interesting.Not surprisingly, the story has its own share of spinoffs: "Dragonhowl Mountains" (web novel): Originally a side-story written on Touno's personal site in between volumes 5 and 6, which focused on Kanami, the former leader of the legendary "Debauchery Tea Party." The side-story later became part of the main story, with "Dragonhowl Mountains" as the ninth volume, "Go East, Kanami!" Log Horizon Gaiden: Kushiyatama, Do Your Best! (light novel): Originally a fan fic titled Into a Remote Town, the story was later published as an official side-story novel at the same time as volume 10's release. It follows former D.D.D member Kushiyatama and her long-time friend Yaezakura immediately after the Catastrophe. Log Horizon (manga): Illustrated by Hara Kazuhiro, the light novel's illustrator, the one-volume manga gives a quick overview of the events in the first light novel volume. (More chapters for the manga were published in Weekly Famitsu, but were never compiled into volumes.) Log Horizon: Honey Moon Logs (manga): A retelling of the first two Log Horizon volumes from the Crescent Moon Alliance's perspective. Log Horizon: The West Wind Brigade (manga): A retelling and expansion of the first five volumes from the perspective of Soujirou's eponymous guild. Log Horizon: Nyanta's Fortune Recipes (manga): A collection of slice-of-life vignettes focusing on, obviously, Nyanta's cooking, and the interactions he has with Akiba's other residents while he does so. The manga spans the events of the first ten light novel volumes.The series is notable for prompting a surprise visit by Mamare himself to 4chan for an impromptu Q&A session with English-speaking fans, which was followed up by two more in the wake of episodes 10 and 25.Yen Press licensed the original light novels, Hara's manga adaption, and Log Horizon: The West Wind Brigade in 2015.The rulebook for a Dungeons & Dragons-style tabletop RPG based on the series was released in March 2014, accompanied by a story of a session played using the rules by four authors◊ — Ayasato Keiji (Beyond Another Darkness, Marginal Operation), Murasaki Yukiya (Altina the Sword Princess), Maruyama Kugane (OVERLORD), Shibamura Yuuri (Gunparade March: Another Princess). Set during the initial few days after the Catastrophe in the Ritorabure Islands (based on the RL Bonin Islands), four stranded Adventurers attempt to find a way to return to the mainland. On their way back they come across a mysterious Lander girl Nagi, and gets involved the incident surrounding her loss of memory.Finally, as a general warning, this page covers tropes seen both in the anime and the light novels, as well as the various spin-offs. As such, fans of the anime (even those who have seen every episode) should be careful about reading through spoilers, as many reference plot points that have yet to come up in the anime. Consider yourself as having been warned. Also, all character tropes should be moved to the appropriate character page whenever possible.Not related to Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere or Legend of the Galactic Heroes (commonly abbreviated as LoGH and thus, confused for Log Horizon).

Log Horizon / int_135b9977	comment	Bloodless Carnage: Because the anime airs on a family friendly network when enemies are defeated they die in explosions of light in place of blood, but the anime still manages to do this in a way that gives it a cool video game-ish feel. The Light novel on the other hand makes no attempt to hide this. Season 2 downplays this a bit, in that it occasionally shows characters bleeding, but it's never more than a small amount, such as the Serial Killer getting dripping blood on his katana after killing Kyouko or William bleeding from his head after a major attack from a boss, and it still doesn't get gory with the injuries.

Log Horizon / int_15264ac9	comment	Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: An actual rule of the world. As time progresses, the game world is becoming more and more like the real world, with game mechanics either being changed or handwaved. In season one, the Round Table council gains possession of the Guild Hall for a ridiculous sum of money, with season 2 revealing that after purchasing a number of other important buildings they are going broke from the maintenance costs, which are roughly double that amount per week The world is expanding to gradually become the same size as Earth. Flavor text is no longer meaningless. The description of an early-game quest was to kill a Goblin Chieftain before he became a serious threat. Because of all the issues of the change, nobody took up the sidequest, and the Chieftain became a serious threat.

Nyanta. First in the anime to deduce how to utilize game skills to manipulate real life (though this is how combat is performed, it isn't shown that Shiroe makes this connection). The fact that he has demonstrated that game mechanics can be invoked by actually performing the task (cooking) while simultaneously demonstrating that real-life mechanics can be augmented by game skills (only high-level chefs can actually create recipes and food) is reaching high levels of savvy in this genre.

In the equivalent chapter (chapter 3 of book 3), only seven very short paragraphs are devoted to it. Add to this the participation of Soujirou's West Wind Brigade in the Crescent Moon scheme, whereas in the light novel (and also in the anime), Shiroe asks him to send the invitations for the Round Table Council to the other guild masters. In episode 8, we see Isaac and Krusty's reaction to Maryelle's invitation, which isn't seen in the light novel. In a minor case, the English Dub adds a line in Episode 6 from Shiroe explaining the name of the titular guild (see Badass Creed below).

For the majority of players trapped in Elder Tales, these are abilities that are rumored to transcend old class skills in use, giving them a near-mythical reputation. In truth, the so-called Overskills are existing class or subclass skills, just used creatively in ways the original game never intended before it became "real" for everyone. For example, Nyanta's way of cooking food with real flavor is considered this. Many of the book characters are confirmed to be users of these.

Log Horizon / int_25c7b33a	comment	Cruel to Be Kind: In episode 20, Shiroe seems like a complete Jerkass to Rundelhous when he first runs into the latter. However, the reason he did it was because he wanted to make sure Rudy had the conviction to continue living. Nobody was even sure if this would've worked, but Shiroe did what he thought would make for the best possible outcome. Fortunately for them, it works. A more lighthearted example occurs at the end, when Rudy wakes up in the cathedral, and Isuzu repeatedly hits him on the head and treats him like a dog, even having him give his "paw" to her. In episode 25 he does it again, this time towards Raynesia. While it seems cruel to her at first, he was purposely acting that way in order to let Krusty and the other guild leaders of the Round Table look good and call out Malves on his attempt to make her look like a fool.

In Season 2 Episode 20, Mizufa, the commanding Westelande officer of the mission to conquer Eastal, keeps insulting and provoking Nyanta until he is genuinely enraged enough to try and kill her. However, just as he's about to skewer her throat with his Rapier, he is stopped by Kazuhiko, his old Tea Party friend now in the leadership of Plant Hwayden in Minami. After the mission is cancelled and Kazuhiko breaks off from Nyanta one last time, he muses that this was for the better, as Nyanta didn't have to kill a Lander. In Season 2 Episode 23, Isaac finds himself in a situation where he's desperately defending Iselus, Raynesia's 9-year old brother with a level to match, from many power-leveled assassins from Minami. After using a special skill to force them to attack him and him only, he goes out of his way to subdue them with non-lethal force, only knocking them unconscious with his bare fists or the blunt end of his BFS.

First, the protagonist serves as a Big Brother Mentor who prefers to work as a group or a team. Second, the mood is very light-hearted with more heartwarming and funny scenes (as opposed to Sword Art Online where there are more Tear Jerker and dramatic moments). Finally, there is no permanent death, meaning getting killed is really cheap (across from losing a few items and gold). Until the reveal that dying causes you to gradually lose your memories.

They then do it again to a random Player Killer group who thought they had the upper hand in an ambush. The PKers that went up against Soujirou and Isaac in the West Wind Brigade side-story face this, easily slaughtered after fleeing the WWB guild members. Three raid bosses did this to Shiroe and the Silver Sword when two of them left their lair and intervened mid-fight. The adventurers who aid in the goblin king event when Raynesia asks for their help. Due to a combination of more adventurers fighting, their higher levels in general, and the use of coordinated strategy and tactics between groups scattered far across the lands, they successfully defeat the horde armies. The murderer in episodes 4 and 5 of season 2 delivers these repeatedly to the adventurers. It's made much worse by the fact that he's doing it in Akihabara, a safe zone where PvP usually brings down the wrath of the Royal Guard NPC's (who are mysteriously absent during this time). Everyone who's gone up against him and didn't get a chance to escape has died, including Soujirou and Akatsuki.

During this period, the novels mention that in the army of one of the nobles, there are perhaps fifteen knights who are level 30. The rest are guards, mercenaries and other low-level Landers. Akihabara is host to fifteen thousand Adventurers, and half of them are level 90. Akihabara could dominate the entire continent with perhaps a score of Adventurers, if the Round Table was of a mind.

Depending on skill level, their power ranges from Magical to low-level Artifact-Class tier equipment. Artifact-Class: Obtained via quests/dungeons/monsters. Phantasmal-Class: The rarest of the rare is the Phantasmal-Class items, of which only one of each exists per server. These can only be obtained via raids (quests/dungeons/bosses that require multiple parties to complete). Shiroe, Naotsugu, Soujirou, Krusty, Takayama, Issac, William, some Silver Swords members, and Tetra are all known owners of Phantasmal-Class items. When a player manages to obtain one of these items, his or her name is broadcasted throughout the entire server.

Log Horizon / int_4e7c4536	comment	Wham Line: Akatsuki delivers one in episode 3, when she tells Shiroe and Naotsugu that she is a college student in real life, despite her avatar's small stature. Shiroe delivers one in volume 4. He tells a few members of the Round Table Council his theory on how the death system works in the new world, that you would not only lose just EXP, but your memories of the old world as well. The terrifying implications of this was confirmed by Krusty, whom died twice since the Apocalypse and could no longer remember details about his pet cat. Rodrick delivers four consecutive ones in volume 6. He tells members of his guild that 1) According to their latest research, Adventurers are starting to be able to successfully cook/craft without the required skill. 2) Yamato (and likely the world) is slowly expanding and becoming the same distance as the real world. 3) Adventurers real life selves are slowly being over-ridden by their avatars. 4) Flavor text on items, which were previously just misc lore material, is starting to become true. All this indicates that the world is under-going a major change and they have no idea what may happen. Dariella seems shocked in episode 17 of season 2 after hearing Minori mention Shiroe's name. Though it's also established that she is actually Nureha in disguise, so seems quite pleased to now know that the adventurers she's with is familiar with him.

Log Horizon / int_50727f8d	comment	Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: Everyone was immensely relieved to find out that they can't be Killed Off for Real by being killed in battle. Unfortunately, that encouraged some people to become Player Killers. Subverted after Shiroe learns about the Spirit Theory. He hypotheses since Adventurers lose EXP when they resurrect, when Elder Tales became real, it translates to a loss of memories. This is proven true when Krusty, whom died twice since the Apocalypse, could no longer remember the name and appearance of his pet cat, despite his good memory. This leaves the terrifying implication that dying in the new world means gradually losing your memory of the old one. Krusty himself says this is a double subversion because he figures one would have to die dozens of times before the memory loss became more than a "mild inconvenience". Comparatively speaking, that's still pretty cheap. A lot of this is also mental, as William Massachusetts notes that he and his guild mates have died countless times in raids since the Catastrophe, and each time they do, they are forced to relive their My Greatest Failure moments; the psychological burden of doing so repeatedly has significantly thinned his guild's roster by the time Shiroe visits him in Susukino early in Season 2. In Episode 9 of Season 2, we see Shiroe affected by both of these firsthand, as he wanders around his hometown in a world of his memories, and he is unable to recall the name of a restaurant he used to pass by. When he sees his child self sitting on a bench in a park like he often would do when he messed up, he realizes that he has come to this place as an adult because yet again, he has failed. He describes the memories and sensations raging in his mind as filling him with regret and a desire to die.

Log Horizon / int_60eac4ba	comment	Off the Rails: Ever since Elder Tales became real, quests/monsters can go beyond their established roles and scripted events can lead to this. In one incident, a raid drop sword flavored as containing the spirit of an insane Ancient raid boss found its way to Akihabara, where it was picked up by a Royal Guard and got possessed by said Ancient, granting it all its abilities. In the game, the boss gained HP based on the number of characters in the zone. The original method of defeating it was to escort all NPCs out of the zone in order to reduce its HP to a manageable level. Now, because its in Akihabara with 15,000 Adventurers and thousands of Landers, on top of being a Royal Guard, it became unkillable and rampaged for days in the city before Akatsuki and the girls Take a Third Option and shut down Akihabara's Royal Guard system. In another incident, Shiroe and the Silver Swords were raiding a dungeon and fighting one of the bosses when they received a VERY unwelcome surprise as the two other raid bosses within the dungeon had left their respective lairs to assist the one they were fighting. Since each boss is individually designed for an entire raid to defeat, it quickly led to a Total Party Kill. One raid boss even intentionally damaged itself in order to spawn additional monsters.

More significantly, before Shiroe accessed his friend list, he scrolled past a status box which showed that the public zone he is in is available for purchase. There's an instance is during episode 14, when Minori and her companions were having breakfast, specifically the scene with Isuzu and Rundelhous, which displays their status. Isuzu's displays as "Human/Adventurer", while Rundelhous' shows "Human/Sorcerer" instead, and whats more the latter's status shows a different color to Isuzu's (green to Isuzu's blue).

The adventurers in Akihabara are forced to deal with him in an unconventional manner due to his ability to gain stats based on how many adventurers are within fifty meters of him.

This is the case with food. Food bought from the NPCs or created through the game interface comes out bland and tasteless. However, actually physically cooking the food will have it taste the way it should.

They are powerful creatures with alien powers and mannerisms; some of them have cthulu style tentacles. Translated so far as <Genius> monsters, they have apparently been systematically exterminating or sealing off the Ancients (powerful Hero-class NPCs) in each "server". Kanami and her companion Leonardo manage to save Elias Hackblade, one of the Ancients and apparently The Hero of the Elder Tale metaplot, from being sealed by them. They're also apparently Genre Savvy, possess Medium Awareness, and are extremely creepy. This doesn't take into account the ones who created them, the Navigators, who are implied to be responsible for the Apocalypse in the first place, and that the result isn't even out of malice. It gets explained by Roe 2 that had they known that the residents of the world, or at least the adventurers, were intelligent past the minimum threshold, then they would have been left alone, as the resource being harvested, Psyche/MP (called empathions by the Navigators) belongs to those who live on the world.

Best shown during the 'Return of the Goblin King' arc, where a force of only 1200, under coordination of Shiroe and Krusty, was able to Curbstomp an army of Goblins that likely would have wiped out the Eastal Lords.

Log Horizon / int_8879db82	comment	Badass Crew: The Debauchery Tea Party successfully completed many quests and raids despite not being a guild themselves prior to its disbandment. They were so close with each other that even after years apart members of the group (such as Shiroe, Naotsugu and Nyanta) still don't need to speak in order to coordinate a well-timed, synchronized and perfect display of teamwork. D.D.D., Black Sword Knights, Honesty, and Silver Sword all count, being major, dedicated raiding battle guilds. During the Return of the Goblin King event, a legion of Adventurers composed of D.D.D., Black Sword Knights and Honesty completely rolled through all opposition with razor sharp military-like precision. If that wasn't badass enough, during the above spoiler, Krusty led a 96-man team of Adventurers on a blitzkrieg straight into the heart of the entire tens of thousands-strong goblin horde, massacring almost every one of the goblin leaders in the process. Silver Sword is reinforced as this when they go on the Abyssal Shaft raid at Shiroe's request. Even after being completely obliterated by not just one, but three Raid Bosses ganging up on them, they choose to follow their guild master William back into the raid, barely succeeding the second time around after formulating a new plan. Shiroe notes that not even Isaac nor Krusty would have even thought of challenging it again. Minori's group becomes like this after the training camp. They performed very well in the defense of Chousin.

Log Horizon / int_89a17726	comment	Spell My Name With An S: The update which transported the players into Elder Tale is often translated as "Novasphere Pioneers", a meaningless Word Salad Title. But in some cases, it is translated as "Homesteading the Noosphere", which the author confirms is a reference to this essay. In fact, the essay was the basis for the series. Some of the names in this series in the Crunchyroll translations are transliterated differently from that of the original novels, most notably "Lenessia" for Raynesia. The anime can't even agree on the correct spelling for Rundelhaus. It's been spelled: "Rundellhous Kode" in the anime itself (his voice actor chose this name), "Rundel Haus" (BD 4), and "Rundellhaus" (BD 5). Of course, the light novel gives its own spelling: "Rundelhaus". The Yen On English-language localizations themselves have switched to "Rundelhaus" and "Marielle" by Volume 4. Funimation picking up Destruction of the Round Table and going back to sub the first two seasons compounds this even further. On one hand, they do match the Yen On localized names in some cases, such as calling Akiba as such where Crunchyroll would call the city Akihabara. On the other hand, they call Touya "Toya" and render the West Wind Brigade as the "Brigade of the West Wind", among other changes, and render Raynesia as "Rayneshia" and Iselus as "Itherus" among further differences.

How would player nations change the political landscape of the world? Shiroe's response is to recreate society; government, economy, public safety, etc. "This is our reality" In-universe, both Adventurers and Landers concern themselves that neither side behaves as before. This has unfortunate outcomes later as Adventurers don't receive regular quests from the now-sentient Landers, thus becoming less able to prevent events from snowballing into true disasters for Landers, nor are adventurers assured to gain game-standard equipment (such as their Bag of Holding).

While he's hesitant to suggest it, both Naotsugu and Akatsuki are already set on heading out in their stead. In episode 16, Minori suggests that instead of protecting the town and trying to evacuate the citizens, they should go and attack the goblins before they reach the city. Raynesia offers one in episode 17, after the lords and adventurers are unable to agree on what to do regarding the goblin invasion. She offers to go to Akihabara herself and ask for volunteers there. Shiroe does this when faced with taking either Minori or Akatsuki to the cake eating contest for couples. He ends up being allowed to bring both girls, but they have to eat more cake to win the competition as a result.

Every Adventurer in Minami was then forced to join Plant Hwayden. Having only one guild united the Adventurers of Minami and solved the issue of large/small guilds. The city closed itself to the outside world, to the point where even Shiroe could barely obtain any intel. However, this created a dictatorship and rule by fear, as the Adventurers are terrified of losing access to the cathedral. Minami is essentially what Akihabara could have become had Shiroe failed in creating the Round Table Council or had he chosen to solve Akihabara's problems in another way.

Log Horizon / int_9c45b5a2	comment	What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Some players believe the People of The Land are beneath contempt because they do not exist outside the game even if they do look human. Ironically, Shiroe points out that since all Landers have names, personalities, emotions, memories, and most importantly, can permanently die, it makes them more human than the players. Log Horizon is one of the few series where this works both ways. As revealed in the West Wind Brigade spinoff, the Landers endured years of interacting with the hordes of "inhuman" and "robotic" adventurers, and treated them as such. Which is why many of them are frankly stunned when the adventurers started acting like people to them. The Odyssey Knights treat Landers this way. Though they typically try to protect them, the knights don't care if they end up fighting in a city during combat, and if some buildings get crushed and NPC's die, so be it. Touya gets really angry about this.

After Ri Gan mentions that Shiroe first appeared in their records 98 years ago, Akatsuki asks him if he's really that old. Shiroe understandably denies it, then remembers that time in the game world goes much faster than in real life, so the 98 years in the game equated to about a little over 8 years in the real world, which was the total elapsed time since he started playing Elder Tale.

However, this only applies to actions that lower Hit Points, so things that simply cause pain don't count, or sexual assault. Being a minor guild of only four people (at the start), Log Horizon would ordinarily have been excluded from any conference involving the high-level guilds, but because Shiroe called for and organised the Round Table conference, that earns him a seat at the Round Table Council. In episode 22, Shiroe is allowed by the organizer of the couple's cake eating contest to take both Minori and Akatsuki. Unfortunately this earns the ire of every other patron, particularly when the two girls insist on feeding him. On top of that, they have to finish twelve whole cakes (as opposed to slices that the other couples had) in order to win the competition. Unlike Adventurers, when Landers die, they die for good. This very nearly happens to Rudy following his Heroic Sacrifice in the Goblin King Invasion arc. As he's dying, Shiroe draws up a magical contract which would theoretically make the former an Adventurer, thus saving his life. It works... by making "Adventurer" his Sub-class.

If they don't, then a goblin king is crowned, the goblin tribes are united, and the encounter rate for all goblin races increases dramatically. Because the adventurers were so busy trying to make the world livable for themselves, they forgot all about it.

However, Season 2 shows that the translator can't perfectly translate everything said, such as for some examples Rudy getting confused when Isuzu talks about Earth-based music-speak while Isuzu and the other junior members can only hear him and other Landers say "a forty-two" when they try to mention songs.

Examples of this are the Overskills, which utilizes/combines class skills in such a way to create something entirely new, and the plan Rieze came up with to defeat the Murderer. Because Lugrias would increase his stats based on the number of Adventurers within a 50 meter radius, they could only fight him with a bare minimum number of people to avoid increasing his stats too much. Attacking him with long range spells is also not an option since longest range for spells is only 20 meters. Her solution to this? Lure him into the bottom floor of a multi-story building while her group is on the top floor (and thus outside the 50 meter radius), cast a bunch of ice spells, and let gravity do the rest.

Unfortunately, though they eventually take care of the problem, many buildings in the town, and presumably Landers, get destroyed in the process. Shortly afterwards, they get up and go, forcing the Landers to clean up the mess they made out of the town, and giving them a more negative opinion of adventurers in general. Averted with Isuzu's song. She at first thinks the Landers will lump their group in with the Odyssey Knights due to being adventurers, and therefore being blamed for the destruction of the town. However, they begin hearing Landers sing the song she created, giving them a new song they've never heard of before, as well as the hope they so desperately needed to start rebuilding. Several of them comment that eventually the song will spread to other areas, meaning all their efforts ultimately didn't entirely go to waste.

This way the landers can share the experience and level up quickly without doing any hard work. Shiroe notes that while this may increase their stats it won't make them any better at fighting. They ultimately settle on a mixed approach.

Log Horizon / int_cc6115ea	comment	Virtual Reality: "Homesteading the Noosphere" expansion pack has turned Elder Tales into one, but as the story progresses, it becomes evident that this is not the case. For one, "Elder Tale" didn't actually use any kind of VR interface, just a standard keyboard/mouse/headset setup. Also, one of the major plot-points is that the arbitrary game rules are breaking down, allowing things like regular cooking without using the game interface and the creation of objects that didn't exist in the game prior. Then there's the fact that all of the NPCs are now fully sentient people, to the point that Shiroe was able to turn one into an Adventurer.

In other words, one of the laws governing this setting allows for the changing of other laws. Shiroe's contract that transforms Landers into adventurers is described as this kind of magic. Landers can't create new songs because of Creative Sterility. Thus, Isuzu singing songs they've never heard of is unprecedented. Then she goes and composes her own original song, which becomes her overskill the 43 song. It's justified because she's an adventurer and has heard many more than 42 songs in her life.

Log Horizon / int_cd83fa5b	comment	Spoiler Opening: For all three seasons. The season 1 opening reveals many spoilers from the original novels for the keen-eyed viewer. Examples include showing the Mare Tranquillitatis, Shiroe's young guild members, Princess Raynesia's appeal for a volunteer army, Rundelhous' "death" and the founding members of the Round Table Council, among others. The season 2 opening continues with this tradition. Akatsuki's death from the Akiba murderer, as well as the Overskill she gains and uses against him, the younger members of Log Horizon going on their own quest, Roe 2 appearing in the world, Nureha in her Dariella guise wandering off on her own, Nyanta vs. Kazuhiko... The Destruction of the Round Table opening picks this tradition back up after several years, showing Eins' defection from the Round Table Conference and his being granted the title of Duke of Akiba by Westelande's House of Saiguu; Shiroe's reactivation of the Intercity Transport Gate; Krusty and Gumon on Mount Lang Jun; Krusty meeting Bucaphi at Kunlun on the moon; Elias being corrupted by Youren and dueling with Leonardo; Minori using her White Coat of Minerva skill as she leads the Akiba Guild Hall Raid Party; the Genius Eirenus skewering members of the raid party with its mental-based attack; the Mofur sisters joining the raid party and then Log Horizon after the raid's conclusion; and the members of the New Round Table Council, with Raynesia replacing Krusty as The Face and William Massachusetts joining. The opening shot, with the demolition of Akiba's Guild Hall, actually happens to the Guild Hall in the dungeon that Eirenus had created based on the city.

What made this text important was that Shiroe discovers that the Sage not only existed but invites him to talk, giving him a substantial insight into the Apocalypse, side effects in Adventurer deaths, the history of the world as the Sages had documented it, and the true scale of magic spells.

Because Elder Tale mainly uses voice communication rather than keyboard, most players ended up making their avatar the same as their gender. Episode 6 of season 2 presents that those trapped in the wrong body slowly gain characteristics of the other gender, such as their voices becoming more feminine (or masculine for a girl in a guy's body). Inverted. Akatsuki is a girl in real life but she can't hide her unmistakably feminine voice, and quaffs a model-changing potion to have a more fitting appearance. Played more straight in Volume 7 with Tetra, who was a male who just so happened to be trapped in a female cleric avatar. Only Shiroe figures this out. Episode 13 of season 2 has Touya and Rundlehaus discuss how obvious it is, and the complications in addressing him/her. Magus from the West Wind Brigade manga spinoff turns out to be one as well. Alakshmi, a character from the fanfiction-turned canon novel D.D.D Diaries is also one.

Log Horizon / int_e851b5	comment	The Plan: Shiroe's plan to enforce order in Akihabara can be seen as this. First, to obtain the funds he needed, he sought help from the Crescent Moon Alliance, whom he trusted, to open an eatery utilising Nyanta's revolutionary cooking discovery. The eatery was an instant success and not only procured some funds but also attracted the attention of the large guilds. He then persuaded Marielle and Henrietta to negotiate with the large manufacturing guilds for an investment in the eatery in exchange for its secrets. This secured the funds Shiroe needed. Next, he seized the opportunity to call for a meeting among the largest and most influential guilds and proposed the formation of a self-governing council to maintain peace and order in Akihabara and appealed to the guilds through the benefits of doing so. When that failed, he revealed that he had purchased the Guild Hall building, effectively granting him the ability to deny other players the right to access this vital structure. This forced the invited guilds to reach a compromise and the Round Table Council was established. It is later revealed that in case his previous gambit failed, Shiroe has yet another trump card in his sleeve. The Strategist indeed.

Log Horizon / int_e9e35e8f	comment	Exact Words: Henrietta wasn't lying during the negotiations with the guildmasters of the three biggest production guilds in Akihabara: the Crescent Moon Alliance was undertaking an important campaign, the guild required a large amount of gold to make it possible, and the rewards at the end would be new recipes for food. It's not her fault that Charasin, Michitaka, and Roderick assumed it was an in-game quest, rather than a campaign, in the real-world definition of the word, to make Akihabara a better place. Also, the recipes were recipes ... just the literal kind, not the in-game menu kind.

Log Horizon / int_ea08e9	type	The Team
Log Horizon / int_ea08e9	comment	The Team: Teamwork is crucial in Elder Tale. Shiroe, an Enchanter, has abilities that weaken enemies and support allies but lacks any substantial offensive capabilities. Naotsugu is a Guardian and his abilities are based on defending allies. Both of them can only truly shine when they work in a team. Isuzu's bard abilities are nothing special by themselves, but when used in combination with a tank and a mage they can be Simple, yet Awesome. There are many guilds present in Elder Tale. Parts of the first episode show the various guilds scrambling to rebuild/reorganize and secure a base of operations. Shiroe, Naotsugu, William Massachusetts, Krusty, and many high-level players are veterans of 24-man raids, for which teamwork is far more important than simply being high-leveled or having the best equipment. Raids in particular are a setting where even players like Shiroe or William can prove to be great teammates despite their real-life difficulties socializing.

Log Horizon / int_eb8e4fa8	comment	In episode 20, Shiroe seems like a complete Jerkass to Rundelhous when he first runs into the latter. However, the reason he did it was because he wanted to make sure Rudy had the conviction to continue living. Nobody was even sure if this would've worked, but Shiroe did what he thought would make for the best possible outcome. Fortunately for them, it works. A more lighthearted example occurs at the end, when Rudy wakes up in the cathedral, and Isuzu repeatedly hits him on the head and treats him like a dog, even having him give his "paw" to her.

Funnily enough, the level of douchebaggery of Hamelin varies between media. In the main novels and Honey Moon Logs, they're shown as abusive perpetrators of child labor, while in West Wind Brigade they also apparently do player killing and sexual assault on the side. Add these together, and it's no wonder no one sympathizes with them.

Log Horizon / int_eef00c27	comment	Japanese Spirit: This trope is subjected to a Decon-Recon Switch in this series. Atypical of most anime, the main character is not an Idiot Hero or Book Dumb, and thus the story does not bend over backward to make sheer Determination the highest virtue possible. In fact, the Training Camp arc goes out of its way to demonstrate how fighting spirit and Training from Hell alone are a recipe for disaster. At the same time, however, it's still shown that Resolve (another of the three virtues of the trope) has its purpose, and that although strategy is absolutely necessary, there are times when you need to act. At one point, they even paraphrase a Samurai mantra which states that failure to act when necessary makes one no better than those already dead. Thus far, the Japanese Spirit trope is kept in delicate balance with pragmatism.
