As a starting point, after the start of the new era, the narrative does not stick, and has the flavor of current topics! ^ _ ^
Taken aback by this change of strategy in the plot, imagine what it would be even later! * _ *
Easy to watch during the various narrative interludes with Marie, a true MC with the treasurer!
Surely even the kids will be happy for the version maid of Akatsuki! XD
Too bad the design, (I know I say it every time, I apologize) leave much to be desired for the low-quality in the details, which I appreciated in SAO, which would make the cutest series in terms of graphics, if they increased the accuracy of the costume design and drawings. I hope it is done with the BD!

Shiro ... ONI! XD

Watching this episode makes me think that Shiroe might be a bad guy--or at least could have a bad intention. Reminds me of Sinbad from magi. He (Shiroe) is a tactician and if looks like he got other people dancing in his hand. Scary.

Marielle complaining about the horrors of glasses people and having a fit was very cute to me xD.

Finally got to see Akatsuki in a dress and Serara being too excited <3

Can't wait to see how his plans go.

On another note, those earrings from the girl who ate the hamburger reminded me of Etna's earrings from disgaea :D

After watching eps 7 the second time I think I know what Shiro Need the $5 million. Either he going to buy the city or parts of the city and become the mayor and make new laws and force the other guild out. Reason for this is the foreshadowing talking about buying a building and the example when Henrietta corner Akatsuk in her guild area to force her into a maid outfit. Henrietta use her admin power to control the area. So Shiro can maybe do the same if he has the city.

I'm loving Log Horizon lel.

Marie was cute after those two megane-akuma tortured her. Akatsuki being sold out again was pretty hilarious. Souji is cute , imho.

Great episode , looking forward to the next

Since selling the burgers would take a month to reach 5 million gold I thought his back-up plan was to sell the secret on how to cook good food to the other guilds at 50,000 gold a guild; 50,000 gold because crescent moon had 60,000 gold and they are a relatively small guild so most would be able to afford this. That way it would only take 100 guilds to reach 5 million gold. But he would have to sell the secret to all 100 at once or else the guilds that he has already shown it to could sell the secret at a lower price to the remaining guilds. But it seems that his back-up plan was just to use Soujirou and Akatsuki to attract more customers. It works, but I don't think as quickly. Although, his plan is better for the long run, since he can continuously make money off of people.

Hahaha, Shiroe is so ruthless. Selling out Akatsuki to Henrietta just to get her help. Then abusing Marie's authority and position in the Crescent Moon Alliance to set up a hamburger shop.

The next episode's title card really does suit him, "The Villain in Glasses."

I really really starting to like this show, this is awesome. They have great casts, great story writing, great execution, great visuals, great ost, and pretty much everything is great, even the directing is good! I can't find things that I dislike in this freaking show!!!

And I think that I will definitely love every other Tea Party members, they seem to have this air around them, the air of the wise/comrade, they have this nakama-ish feelings to them, and I like that! Even though I said that, I still don't fully trust Soujiro yet, but yeah, I like him XD.

Until now, I still can't grasp even 1% of Shirou's plan, damn that's deep.

I really don't think so. If that happened, the other guilds who got their hand on the secret would also sell them out, which kinda cheapen the value of that secret.

He's hilarious. An oblivious lady killer nicknamed "harem character". His guild West Wind Brigade (Nishikaze no Ryoudan) is comprised almost entirely by women (and one woman at heart) and is nick named the "harem guild". He's also very protective of his friends and is very adept in melee since he's a Lvl. 90 Samurai. He even has his own spin-off manga. Shiroe and the rest of the Tea Party men are jealous of him because he always gets to have women in his company almost effortlessly.

LOL WTF! Sounds ridiculous, but kind of fun XD If you say that he is trust-able if you read the LN, then I'll trust you on that. :)

Some fans are saying he's basically a more mellow and likable parody of Kirito from SAO. I like him either way but I can see the resemblances somewhat although it's not much really and I like to view characters w/out comparing them to existing archetypes. He's not really broody. He's more of a lovable idiot and always manages to say the right thing (to ladies mostly) every damn time. He acts cute at times w/c leads to his haremmetes having nasty nosebleeds or fierce blushing. He acts more like an innocent little kid and respects Shiroe a lot.

Here's an excerpt from the novel:

"Soujirou is still popular with the ladies?"
"Hmm? Ah... please don't say that."
Soujirou started to panic. Nyanta squinted his thin eyes into a thin line and asked "So nice to be young. How many nya?"
Soujirou raised one hand with his thumb folded in.

(Still in his harem mode, not that I envy him... But there are 4 of them, gives me an unforgivable... sort of feeling. What is this deal with 4 people? Other than Nazuna and Saki, there are 2 more, what a grand formation...)
Shiroe feels exhausted.

Why can they only serve 1000 people each day? Is really everyone busy? I somehow doubt that. They showed quite a lot of idle members or downtime. Also, 1000 people doesn't mean they only sold 1000 burgers or whatever, they can sell a lot more.

And if they'd charge people to see Akatsuki or Souji in beatiful outfits, they would probably make hundreds of thousand per day, given the reaction of the people. It would also allow a nearly unlimited amount of people to take part..

Simply put the supplies won't last. They'll have to make sure the ingredients lasted long enough for Maryele to sign up Charasin for placing bulk orders. They were hunting ingredients out in the wild so it took more time and manpower than usual. Also they numbered only a mere 40+ people before the West Wind Brigade were recruited to help out. They were further divided into those who hunted for meat and ingredients, those who handled accounting, the front liners and the chefs.

The ingredients were all spent on the first day so they had to close up shop. Also, you'll have to take into account that hunting wasn't the same as IRL. You'd hunt a huge boar monster and all it drops is roughly a kilo of meat. Even w/ Lvl 90s one shotting them it'd still take considerable time plus the time it took to transport the goods.

Mmm, so they can buy building from all over the city? I'm sure that will come back later. You know, the city look kinda... wrecked. Maybe in the later episode, it will look more polished/modern.

Maid Akatsuki <3

Shiroe plan is interresting, to create a monopole on real food. But how long will they be able to keep their secret? If one guild find the way to create real food, the value of their market will drop like crazy.

I think that Shiroe will be a good leader. He may not be really good in social interraction, it's not for nothing that they call him the master strategist :)
