| Damn so many people this season were like "Fuck them kids", I think it was a pretty good season personally, at least I liked it a bit better than the first two. First part was aite, kinda lagged in the second, but I really enjoyed the final arc and the confession. |
 |
| For some reason I didn't really enjoy this season. 1st two I gave an 8 and a 7, but this felt like a 6 for me. Don't even know what they did wrong this season, but it just wasn't interesting for me... |

| I don’t know what happened with this season but it was boring as hell. 4/10 |
| thanks for the crappy ride this season....This was beyond trash. |

Hopefully more of that electoral political strategy good shit in the next season (if there will be one) and less weird af love triangles. At this point I lowkey accepted the kids show as part of the ride, but the plot that doesn't include them is just better, the way it's trying to force emotions just feels cheap |

| This world is mine. I think this world may even just be a long, long dream I'm watching. You guys may just be illusions, and it can't be proven whether or not you really exist either. In other words, this world was created with me at the center. So what will happen if I die? I don't know. My imagination isn't very creative; I just can't imagine myself dying. In other words, there is no way this world can completely disappear. But if I die, then everyone will disappear. I am the only one in this world who won't disappear. The rest are just people I see as if in a dream. -Claire Stanfield, Baccano! |
| Another really great season from Log Horizon. Political aspect was amazing. |
 |
| I feel like Minori romance are forced, unnecessary. quite boring, Shiroe barely do anything in this season. |
| Bad choice for the end of the season. The kid's segments are by far the most boring ones, and ending the season with them in the spotlight makes the whole season feel lackluster. At least Shiroe finally dumped Minori (good riddance) and stated his true feeling for Akatsuki. But even then, the season overall was pretty average. Eins and the Election arc was so-so and way too slow, Krusty's adventures were awesome albeit short, and Akiba Kid's Raid was god awful. Seems like Log Horizon has been going straight downhill since S1. I'm afraid we won't get a S4 (and that if we do, it will be a snore-fest) |
| It's nice that we got a 3rd season after all this time, but I am not holding out hope for more. It was a nice wrap up to this season, 7/10. |
 |
| This series hits so much harder now that I've actually played a proper MMO (FFXIV; the endboss fight here is eerily reminiscent of Eden's Promise: Eternity raid). The details regarding raids and bullshit quests are spot on and the formula the earlier seasons minted of alternating arcs focused on diplomacy/plan based tension with action-centric arcs continues to work well. That said, it's still too exposition-heavy for its own good and requires generous use of skipping ahead through the more meandering/extraneous conversations to fully enjoy. |

LN wise from what mamare planned we got 4 more volumes left of content to adapt and the wn is in the middle of writing vol 14. the ln is on hiatus dont ask why cause i dont know. vol 14 i can tell you is shiroe and co will finally deal with indicus, nureha and all of plant hywaden as said in the ending. after that is just the confrontation of the genius on the moon and solve the big mystery that put everyone in this game and how they can get back, This really help, as how things as it is, is there any scanlation team which pickup eng trans of the WN? i'm intrigued to instead go to their website to read the WN in english from start. and i did try baka-tsuki but i can't fully enjoy there because my IP's location. thanks btw. |

feha said: So what happened in the end? Did they regain their memories of those they venerated... From the mention of the fact that the boss was using a mental attack, it seems that it wasn't actually destroying their memories but attacking them with some sort of mental demoralization using their memories of specific important people. This is funny, I was actually becoming a bit tired of this season, but it sort of turned it around by the last 2 eps and now I'm finding it a lot better than it seemed many did. Maybe it's because I've been watching so many kids shows but I've never had an issue with 'the kids'. Minori, Tohya, Isusu and Rudy have all contributed more than enough for me to be satisfied with their characters thus far. S1, they're mostly reliant on the adults but their initial rescue serves as a useful building block for the development of akiba. And later they're part of the battle against the goblins. In S2 I really liked the road trip arc, again serving as a bit of lore in regards to how the people of the land were actually affected by what adventurers viewed as game mechanics. The only issues I had were with how that arc was integrated and/or transitioned into the bit about the other guild. S3 probably gives them the least focus, but I really liked the final battle. One thing that's become clear to me is how little I'd actually want to play a game like log horizon, but how I enjoy watching that type of game. So the whole raid arc from s2 was pretty exciting, seeing all the colorful magic crap flying around, but also the strategy that shiro was employing. So this season's finale, where a bunch of less experienced players had to take on another enemy by themselves, felt like an extension of the previous season's raid. While it might have been sad to see, I'm glad Minori confessed and I'm glad she was rejected. I never cared for that relationship and maybe now she'll be able to go in a different direction than worshiping Shiro. I was just barely able to follow the politics from like the first 4-5 episodes? That one member of the round table went to one of the lords so he could gain power. And then the princess wanted her independence by refusing to marry some lord. And then there's the election. What I felt like I missed was why everybody was talking about the fear of invasion or hostility from other regions of the server. That and I almost felt like the whole arc was sort of going in a circle instead of making any permanent changes. The round table won, so what exactly changed with the management of akiba besides the 2 new people of the land being members? Krusty's arc was cool. I guess the only issue I have was the whole thing with plant hywaden. By the way, does anyone know where that name might have come from? I can't tell if "plant" is like, nature, or a manufacturing site. I think the latter might make sense if you consider how they're using adventurers. And I don't know where the second part of the name comes from. I swear when I hear the characters say the name, they're making an "f" sound. So yeah, even though through all of februrary I just rewatched S1 and then watched S2 for the first time, I feel like I still sort of failed to grasp that whole plot in the latter half of s2. Basically Nureha is the puppet leader of the whole guild, while that other lady is actually pulling all the strings. She's trying to get revenge on Shiro personally. And this is also connected to Kanami and a few other people who were working with that guild in Minami. I know from s2 that they're doing some Fucked Up Shit with controlling every adventurer in the city. I'm just not sure where all of this is leading. I guess it all hinges on whether there really is another season. It's usually not good to hope for another season of an anime but they keep dropping hints in the last few minutes of the final episode, so it seems like the writers are maybe really confident that they'll get more? When I saw the episode count I thought maybe there was going to be a 'season 3 part 2' sometime later this year or maybe next year. |

| A decent closure for this season. Kind of glad it had such a clear cut end to Minori romance so that we don't have to see anymore of her struggles in the future. Overall this was a mixed bag for me. Didn't really like this last arc or anything related to Geniuses in general but really enjoyed the political and people of the land side of the story. Honestly after the first half I was hoping to see something happen between the east and west empires, but was quite disappointed it was spent on defeating raid mob x and romance. |

feha said: So what happened in the end? Did they regain their memories of those they venerated, or were they just faking things by acting by their memories of their prior motivations instead? Like her confession, did she regain her memory of mc beforehand, or did she confess with no memories of who he was, only retaining memories of the fact that she used to like the guy? Because it would be a weird development, but I didnt notice any mention of the memories returning on victory... logical to think they did sins its always like this boss/villain takes ur memory or power or what ever kill boss/villain ur back to normal that's why they didn't bother explaining it they thought we get mad if they treat us like kids who are not dev enough to think... |
feha said: And you mention it, the targeted demographic is adults, and not kids who somehow thinks all is happiness and sunshine just cause the big bad was vanquished. What gave you that idea? It's an (originally) web-published fantasy novel series. It's meant for all ages. Same for the manga version(s). It's not published in a specifically seinen OR shounen magazine. |
| I'm still shipping Shiroe and Henrietta even though it showed Akatsuki when Shiroe turned Minori down. |
| Last arc of this season was just too hard and cringy to watch. I just wanted the last arc to end faster in every moment of it. I enjoyed the end of the political arc and krusty arc tho. Hope theres less of focus on these kids in the future. |
| Bad pacing. Sorry I just disagree with this season. Ep 12 end terrible with that confess and rejected. Kimochi Wakaru. Going to Minami on last scene after ending seems they will make more raid or politic or drama again idk. |
| The first half was great, Krusty segment was also good, dunno about the raid part though. I honestly don't get why they broke down when the boss is clearly trying to provoke them. It's not like the people they respect die once defeated. Big F for Minori, atleast she tried. |
 |
| this season wasn't really worth the wait, the election plot gave me a little hope but they ended it very abruptly. they tried to do too much with 12 episodes and none of the arcs ends well 5/10 for me, now that minori seems out of the way I hope we can focus on better things... |
| Took some time but Minori's unrequited love finally concluded with Shiroe's rejection. I didn't mind the focus on politics or sidecharacters but this season was bit underwhelming especially since Shiroe, the most interesting character, was mostly a bystander. I still wonder why this season is called the Destruction of the Round table if only the first 5 eps focused on that and no destruction happened. Still have my hopes up for s4 to happen. |
 |
| Another mediocre season just like season 2. I did enjoy the first half to a certain extent but it just feels like there's no progress to the story. The confession of a 14y/o girl to a guy that's 23 felt a bit weird too. The title of this season made me think there was going to be a lot of emphasis on the round table but "destruction" doesn't even come close, more like a redirection. Shame honestly because I thought the first season did a really good job focusing on the actual MMO side of a gaming world and the problems within the inner workings of the groups. |
 |
| Good show, would watch S4. |
 |
| Hmm...dis season is alright i guess overall episodes great political anime genre which is good. not great but not terrible. NOT. BAD. (7.50/10) (I really hope there's another s4 ^^) |
| Make Anime Great Again - Donald J. Trump |
| Dino ajur. Minori got rejected. I still shipping shiroe and Akatsuki/Henrietta,and krusty was forgotten in the last few episodes. |
 |
| The only reason this season is better than season 2 is because this one is shorter 5 |
 |
| The kids finally won. While Minoru may have one that raid, but she lost her battle for Shiroes' heart. At least she tried. F. Its a decent season for me. The first part about the politics and election where a bit dull but it ramp later with the action I wanted to watch. I think its better than season two. |
| Waiting for season 3! |
| log horizon been on a downfall from season 1 |
Goodnight, Punpun |
And ...  All was right in the world. Here's hoping for another season. No matter how many years it takes. 👍 |
