Welp, it's interesting how complex they made Krusty into this season including the part of his memory loss.

Outside of his character, we also got to see some ass kicking scenes from the other cast members. But yeah, the way Krusty is protrayed this season is pretty interesting imo.

Krusty's backstory was nice, with some good fight scenes to boot. Him gettign past his curse was also quite nice to see!

That end was pretty good, and that whole backstory was sure tense and interesting, hmm now I wonder if the next one will be good, the preview seems a bit weird

He met the martial art girl, saved the person that serves him.

That guy being cursed vs. the team. Frog guy helping out w. waking him up.

Memory as energy?

Wolf is related to one of the ladies from faraway and memory possible to come back? HP finally regaining.

Illusion undo and everyone vs. the boss?

The Princess (?) wants to pick him, who continue travelling, and lol @ main guy.

Two new characters, related to ancient next

Nice Krusty and Kanami managed to solve the problems with the help of that cat's guild. Good to have Krusty back in normal condition. Also we got some interesting info. So it seems even NPCs can change this world's rules and also the Geniuses might be plotting something.

Raynesia has reasons to be mad but I like how she's gonna try to meet Krusty instead of just waiting for him to come meet him. Also I wonder what Shiroe's planning.

It's nice to see the puppet show draw to a close, and getting the closure on what was going on with Krusty, Kanami and the others over in the China server.

I hope they actually don't get loli beast-girl pets like in the preview though, since it sounds pretty stupid, especially if they aren't going to be People of the land (as they're said to already have previous ties to Shiroe).

And Krusty's saga comes to a close. That was really interesting with cool fight scenes.

I missed it when Akatsuki kicks Naotsugu by saying pan--. Glad it was shown in this episode.

Gumon gave Krusty a hand, but was a arm.
After watching this episode I feel Krusty will probably stay in the game when the time to choose come.
All the this talk about the Moon, I feel more excited about the future (hopefully) seasons.
Now that FFXIV is going to the Moon. The word Moon hit differently.

Damn, Krusty was giving pieces of his memories to get more power. He doesn’t really mind it but doesn’t like giving a lot of memories at the same time I guess. I liked how he used the Genius’s health to heal himself up.

Also, that frog dude’s punch sounded like a slap.

Krusty and Elias are both so principled that they managed to break the curse on their own, good shit. Fight was pretty good for LH standards and learning more about Krusty’s backstory was cool. His real life experiences obviously shaped how he is in-game quite a bit.

Good on Rayneshia for taking the incentive to go see her man lol. Looking forward to the second half.

Yup looks like I was right. 2 episodes for Krusty's side and looks like next up is a Minori relevant arc. Hopefully it will be with the other members of Log Horizon instead of just the newbie squad. Akatsuku actually hasn't done much of anything either except provide a little comic relief.

Disappointing. As much as I like Krusty, that was just weak. I wish we at least had some more of his real world backstory.

Kanami's as high spirited as ever. Its nice that they ditched the rapid flashback setting from last time and opted to do an actual ep this time round. So the enchantress was a hostile after all. Elias being seduced was unfortunate but provided an excellent opportunity for us to see Leonardo's skills. Glad that in the end Leonardo managed to break through to him. Krusty's countering of the enchantress's spells via recovering of his memories and finding strength from his friends and comrades within his guild sure was satisfying as was the final defeat of the enchantress with the aid of the reinforcements. Rayneshia's determination to meet Krusty again even if she has to go to the moon though is just like her. Overall a much better ep than last ep that combined excellent action, world expansion and plot advancement. Curious at what they have in store for us next week though.

Episodes 6 & 7 were the abridged version of LN Volume 11 Krusty, Tycoon Lord.
The use of puppets as a way of shoehorning it into the post LN 11 materials was...interesting.

It's long enough since I watched Season 2 that I don't remember if we've already dealt with the concurrent section of LN Volume 10; I think not, and the inclusion of key developments from it seem forthcoming, due to Black Shiroe looking to be about to make an appearance in response to developments on Krusty's end of things. So rather than LN 10 & 11 being concurrent, Season 3 may treat the significant parts of LN 10 as following LN 11's events of importance, concurrent or sequential not being of great import to the overall story line. We'll see.

After that, we should get back to the issues the first five episodes had focused on.

Now this is more like the Log Horizon I got to love.

Pretty intense episode with the battles happening, frog ninja is MVP for putting that Hero back to his senses.

Just need more Kanami though, such energy she's having!

That was a really dull and uninteresting story around Krusty. Like everything is just so uninteresting. From the fight to the villains, everything about it seem so average. Action scenes are still images with little effects. Villain is literally just Youren being a villain for whatever reason. Bullshit asspull about breaking your limit by surpassing your own will on Elias.

I expected more because of previous episode, it was interesting for once but this episode was underwhelming in every single way possible. Next episode is apparently about two pets too, which look even more uninteresting than what we already have on the plate.

Ah, i see. Its actually really the Genius scheme that solely a cause behind that event. After getting dumped by the Geniuses queen, that thing still tried to trap Krusty into that difficult situations. Unfortunately, she forgot that the contract was lacking the detail that supposed to bind Krusty well. In the end, its just a cracked shell, and ofc Krusty used it well enough with those absorbed hp, and memories. Case closed to the beginning of his journey, until he finally back to Yamato. I still dunno about that fights against the Genius Queen. Could they defeated it, or its a foreshadowing scene for the later story. I hope to see more of those one, in the later episode, or season. But, for now, its interesting to know more about Shiroe minds, due to those Genius issues. The moon might be their next best destination, it seems.

Unfortunately, the next might be a break by adding more cute loli pets (members into the LH). Idk it its signifancy due to their story. So, well, since i know nothing, let it be like that. Lets see....

Krusty past. Lol. The previous lives of those gamers really a surprising matter. Not even the ancient had a surprising past too, tho. Leonardo should've let him known from the beginning about the story, tbh. Then i noticed a little error at Misa's hand near the end scene too. Idk if its necessary to say that, but well, thats for me ....

Okay episode, to say the least.

Akaktsuki should take the lead for the next arc along with the kids, so at least you wont have to worry about them taking to much time.

Also since a lot of people seem to quicly judge, i dont care for the spoilers. but those two are not pets, they are two people of the land Ancients that happened to survive the genius onslaught and are going to join the group to help deal with another genius invasion.

So for peets sake dont take a dialouge that said pet in it as it literally they are pets. uff.

It's a while back now, but what does "Colo-colo-pan" (at about 7:52) mean? I don't get why Akatsuki kicked Naotsugu all of a sudden.

Partly a reference to "Colopatiron" mentioned earlier (about 7:03), partly Naotsugu starting to misspeak the end as "panties", getting the usual (and this time preventative) kick from Akatsuki.

Good to see Krusty is doing well (although I'm not sure what the effect is of the memories he sacrificed to regain MP). His arc was somewhat refreshing to see as we finally got a bit of action after the political Akiba situation.

I'm loving these fight scenes, they were pretty well animated.

It was nice to see a bit into Krusty's past too, and to find out how he even got in this mess in the China server in the first place, and it all has to do with the moon.

As much fun as it was, I'm glad the puppet show is over.
