Season 2 is finally here! This first episode reintroduces us to our favorite heroes. There are new characters before the opening song, and I’m sure we’ll get to know them more later.
The first arc of this season is about money. In order to maintain the order of Akihabara, Round Table needs a lot of money. Now that they have the South as “possible threat”, they need to purchase important buildings to prevent the enemy from getting them. And it seems that maintaining the ownership of those buildings cost a tremendous amount of money. Shiroe is trying to make some sort of a deal to secure money flow for Round Table. An NPC (People of the Land) from Kunie Clan repeatedly rejects Shiroe’s deal.
In order to carry out his secret mission, Shiroe decides to leave Akihabara. Naotsugu goes with him. Akatsuki is given another secret task. To me, this seems like a building up towards a huge raid battle for a massive amount of gold.
It’s great to have Log Horizon back to our weekly screen. I have high expectations on this season.
