I like the new costumes. Those are some good color choices for those designs. I wonder if the kids will get new casual clothes too?

In the next couple novels like pretty much the entire membership of the Log Horizon guild gets new weapons and armor. :LN Spoilers: The only two that don't is Akutsuki and Nyanta and it's only because they haven't level past 90 so they can't equip higher level gear yet.

Akatsuki getting a new sword is what Vol 6 is all about. :v:

Here's their profiles, it's not really very spoilery. (Except perhaps for the last one) The new gear boosts her barriers, so in a way she did get more defense.

E: oops wrong link it's this one.
E2: haha I just realized you probably meant the anime outfits and not the Book 8 outfits. Ah well. It probably still applies. v:v:v

So about the members of the guild. Why don't Akutsuki and The Best Character level past 90?

Leveling past 90 requires some serious grind. I think even the most dedicated adventurers are only up to 95 or so even after all those months.

Actually I think Akutsuki gets to level 91, as for Nyanta yeah he doesn't spend much time killing monsters to grind levels.

At 0:47, holy poo poo is that Leonardo! If that's what they're doing to dodge the copyright then they somehow made him look even cooler!

I love how they keep little characteristic cues from the S1 OP, except updated for S2. :allears:

And how it's absolutely loaded with hints of everything that's coming to pass.
Roe2, Inctis and Nureha's relationship, Inctis and the Tea Party, Book 6 research crew, Akatsuki getting shanked, BEST PARTY (Elias, a dude which I think is K.R., Coppelia, Leonardo and Kanami), Book 7 raid squads (including Demiglace), triple boss fight, Book 6 girl crew (with Akatsuki in the foreground ofc with her duplicates), Krusty and Misa with the evil aura because of the thing with the scythe, the scene with Nyanta I actually don't recognize wow, more dupe Akatsukis, this time in the snow so I guess this is Book 8?.

...is that kid Shiroe?

Isuzu's music notes :kimchi:

This season seems to be Books 6 to 8 plus Best Party.

I really hope they don't start the season with the new gear as that would be stupid as they had to visit raids or get stuff crafted. And I don't think I should spoiler that as anyone who has actually played an MMO knows you have to run dungeons/raids or ask people with crafting professions to get any new gear.

Given the speed people level up (especially Scrub Horizon), showing their gear changes all the time would be time-consuming. Especially since I think Books 6+7 start with a timeskip. Book 6's sub-plot is Akatsuki's new sword, though.

The grinding and getting new gear is mostly background stuff, as it should be. We don't need to see where Serara's kitty hood came from to know that the younger group has been doing quests and getting drops.

So we're going to get to see some of Kanami's globetrotting group with the sentient gold farming bot I've heard about? That would explain how they're going to make a second season with only what's published so far.

Since they're friends with all the big guilds, it should come expected that the best possible gear is readily available to them.

Sure looks like it.

At 0:47 as well, the girl with the dark hair in the maid outfit is the gold farming bot, Coppelia.

The chapter pages in the LN talks about their new gear, it's mostly stuff that were made by craftsmen or dropped from monsters. Except for Shirou, it's all phat loot for him.
