A loli is the one thing this series was missing. I really wonder why she's after Shizuo's life. He gets into fights so often about half of the city must be after his head.

The ending was amazing, although it's not really much of a cliffhanger for us. Trying to cut off Celty's head is obviously not going to work. Looks like that assassin didn't do her homework.

So "loli" just means "little girl" these days?

Anh_Minh · 2015-02-08, 15:35

... It has for years?

It has been since time immemorial.

It is rather amusing how their personalities flip in the chat. The talkative one in real life goes taciturn in the chat, while the taciturn one in real life becomes a motormouth. One tends to miss this on CR's subs because we don't get usenames to go with whoever is talking, and by now it's just a mishmash of colored icons: trying to figure out who's who from that is almost impossible, aside from Celty and Anri.

I'm sorry then, maybe I've been having the wrong impression all along. I just thought a loli was a specific type of little girl.

Now every time I see Serara in Log Horizon I have to imagine her going "please die!" with a psychotic innocence.

Mubyoshi · 2015-02-08, 20:58

It's pretty amazing how this anime is so random yet so amazingly enjoyable at the same time.

DragoonKain3 · 2015-02-08, 21:07

So, psycho killer loli tries to take on the strongest man creature on earth? Yeah, so not gonna happen. XD

More and more, as someone watching the CR version, I miss fansubs where they directly overlayed the translations during the chat logs. Now with the new characters, I'm so totally lost.

Maybe if Nyanta gets a girlfriend...

Benigmatica · 2015-02-09, 09:40

So we got two characters who wanted Shizuo dead other than Izaya, huh? On the other hand, I like how Misaki Kuno voiced a psychotic character like Akane. Totally different from her roles such as Bridget, Serara, and Kurumiko.

Meanwhile, I expect Celty to get back up in her feet 'cause there's no way that mysterious biker could garrote her!

dniv · 2015-02-09, 12:41

Aargh, what's with these stupid cliffhangers... (in a good way).

It's not.

The cameo fan service is because both shows has the same director, not because it was popular.

Dengar · 2015-02-10, 06:12

Remember all of the Dengeki Bunko references made by those otaku guys? That's product placement right there. D:

Benigmatica · 2015-02-10, 08:56

On the other hand, I saw an Aldnoah.Zero billboard during that same episode too!

This needs to be a trope. I need to see a page on tvtropes.org entilted "Badasses with lolis" with the To Aru Trio and their respective lolis as the main image. It's time these giants of badassery and the lolis who accompany them should get the attention they deserve.

It does make good contrast.

Finally caught up, missed this show. Super chaotic but man, this show is just too damn fun.

You're probably going to say this isn't the trope you're looking for, but well, try to see it as a subtrope.

If anyone actually tried to make a page named "badass with a loli" they'll probably get hit by some form of "The same, but more specific" clause.

Iron Maw · 2015-02-10, 19:49

Hmmm.... just noticed that you can see Vorona and Slon (the big guy next her) near the beginning of this episode. Seems like they saw the whole thing with Rocchi.
