Log Horizon (2013) s01e22 Episode Script

1 The Scale Festival starts tomorrow, huh? Everyone is really excited.
It's our first festival in Akihabara, after all.
Since the festival was approved, many guilds have been making special items for the event.
So it seems.
Licensed by the Round Table Princess Figures (Wood Carved) Only 40 of Each Design! 500 Gold Just hearing there's a festival makes a lot of people want to do something.
Decorations? You've got quite a lot there.
They won't even fit in my magic bag.
The Crescent Moon Alliance will be selling winter clothes? We're having a fashion show, as well.
That sounds nice.
It starts tomorrow, so we're doing the final touches today.
Don't work too hard.
I heard Crescent Moon Burgers will be making their return.
That's right.
So, what will you be doing during the festival? I'll be going around and enjoying all the different shops.
I will eat And eat some more! And Akatsuki and the others? Come to think of it, I didn't hear.
What'll the girls be doing? Here, take one! Please come as a couple! I have to invite Shiroe! All-You-Can-Eat Cake Buffet Come as a couple, and get in free!! I've only made it this far because of you.
It's true.
All-You-Can-Eat Cake Buffet Come as a couple, and get in free!! I'm done with this! Swallow and Young Starling Swallow and Young Starling.
Shiroe Shutting yourself up in here again? Handling the Round Table's paperwork, investigating this world I have a ton of work to do.
Are you eating enough? Sleeping enough? Yes and yes.
I ate two hours ago, and I took a fifteen-minute nap.
That's fine, then! Here is what you requested.
Oh, thanks You didn't need to bring it.
If you had just sent a message, I would've come to get it.
So you say, but would you really have come? I've heard you've been locked in here for ages, so I wanted to check on you, too.
Thanks.
How's the Scale Festival looking? Karashin's going all-out.
He's really taken charge of the event.
He does good work.
You should take a break for these next three days.
Yeah During the festival, it'll be pretty noisy, so I probably won't be able to concentrate That isn't why! This is a good chance for you to become closer to your guildmates.
And Log Horizon is one of the Round Table guilds.
You'll be out there, making the event fun, right? I'll try.
You'd better! Right! Akatsuki and Minori are so cute, too.
I'm so excited already! What's that? An Akatsuki doll that Akatsuki gave me! A voodoo doll? Truly, as long as I have my fantasies, I barely even need to eat! They say that man does not live by bread alone.
But with bread and fantasies, you can get over almost anything! God almighty! You're just playing around, aren't you? She's right During the festival, it'll be hard to do much.
When reports come in, I'll have to do some fancy footwork, so I'll end up waiting, anyway.
Since then, nothing has happened in Minami M-My lord Welcome back Has something happened? No Well You want a red bean bun? Red Bean Buns Eh? Great weather today! It feels like forever since I was outside.
This is for you.
You're sure? In this world, red bean buns are expensive.
I want you to eat them.
Thank you.
Delicious It's been a long time since I've had one.
Wh-What? There's bean paste on your mouth.
Oh, thanks.
Lately, you've looked pale.
That isn't true.
Really? M-My lord What's gotten into you? What are you going to do during the festival? The festival? Oh, I'll probably have to help with things.
Henrietta asked me to.
I see No, I mean My lord, do you like c-c-ca All-You-Can-Eat Cake Buffet Come as a couple, and get in free!! Voilà! What is that? So, about the Scale Festival tomorrow Would you go to this with me? A cake buffet? You enjoy sweets, don't you? From the way he eats his red bean buns, that would seem to be true.
I certainly don't dislike them Let us go, my lord.
If we go as a couple, it's free! It's free! Totally free! Let's go! Um Shiroe! My lord! This is a problem.
What should I do? I know.
Maybe not this Minori! There's a pre-festival dance tonight.
Wanna come with Uh, what are you doing? I'll be going out with Shiroe tomorrow, but I'm not sure what to wear.
Going out? With Shiroe, the shut-in?! I don't think I've seen him outside for a week.
So, where are you going? A cake buffet.
Shiroe, eating cake? Why? Well, if you win this contest, you get two tickets to the Twilight Banquet with Princess Lenessia on the second day.
Participants compete to see who can eat the most slices! The top two teams advance to the final battle! No one trusts Shiroe.
They say they don't know what he's thinking But he's actually really nice.
I'm sad that they don't understand him.
I want them all to know more about him.
I understand! Okay! Got it! I'll help you! I'll coordinate your outfit! Really? Thanks! Why does Minori have to put pressure on me? My rival is a middle-schooler? Even if he does normally treat me like a kid, this doesn't seem fair Is it my lord's fault for treating me as a kid? Is it? But because of you.
My lord didn't judge me based on my appearance or level.
He accepted me for who I am My lord said he'd attend the buffet with both Minori and me.
But it's supposed to be a couple, so we'll probably be alone Is this situation a date?! Impossible Impossible! And what will I wear?! What do you suppose is going on? It's getting lively around here.
I have no cute clothes.
What am I going to wear? Oh, I'll ask someone to help me.
What's happened? I felt it Akatsuki needs my help! Akatsuki! I'll pick something myself Crafting Guild Council Office Knock First!! No, no That's going to be expensive.
No, I'm afraid not.
The Council doesn't play favorites.
Your location is determined by lottery.
We must adhere to that.
Hey, you're doing all that yourself? I don't have a choice.
This place is like a business congress.
Then, are these all I asked everyone to submit them so I could check for any dangerous items.
It's a terrifying amount.
Isn't it? The People of the Land's merchants are also coming.
I'm getting the sense that the festival is a lot bigger than it should be.
The next few days are gonna be hell Huh? When did you get here? Please help.
This is rare.
Are you alone? What's wrong? I require fashion! Huh? Shiroe, of Log Horizon And two others? Yes.
Sorry to ask this of you Oh, if that's the case, I understand.
I'm sure this will be difficult for you But good luck! What did she mean? It really is all couples Let's eat! I'm glad all three of us could get in together.
What? All three of us? Yes.
I just got permission from Kanako, the organizer.
We'll have to eat twelve to enter as a trio, but I think we can do it.
Okay.
Let's win, and go to the finals! Right, Akatsuki? Yes.
To be honest, I don't think I could've eaten here twice.
But What is this feeling? Pressure? That's a wonderful kimono, Akatsuki.
It's rare to see you in a kimono.
What's up? Th-This is A guild called Kimono Komachi made it for me Does it look okay? It's a gr— It is not for graduation.
It is for fashion.
Gr— It's graceful, and really nice.
Yeah.
R-Really? Yes, it's very cute.
You look good, too, Minori.
Thank you.
Isuzu chose this for me.
Really? Yes, she took me to a bunch of stores.
Why don't you come with us sometime? Okay.
Isuzu knows a lot about clothes.
I was surprised.
That looks so good! My lord! My lord! I have high hopes for this! Aren't they pretty? Isn't this exciting? Yeah, I think I could eat four of those.
Here you go! Eh? Huh? Here, enjoy! "Enjoy"? But those are whole cakes! It's a little present from my guild! Present? Um Let's start with one.
Yeah.
Let's eat.
It's great Really, my lord? You like it? What are you doing? Serving my lord.
Serving me? That's a whole cake! I'll cut it up.
That isn't the issue.
It's not fair that you got to bring two! Unbelievable.
Crap Is that how this looks? Is he trying to show off? Die.
This isn't good I'll get them both involved.
I hope his glasses break.
I need to avoid making a fuss.
Minimize damage and retreat.
My lord.
Here.
Am I supposed to eat that? Of course, my lord.
Say, "ah.
" Come on, it'll fall off.
Is it good, my lord? Mhm.
Shiroe! Say, "ah"! Try this, too.
Is it good? Well, yeah, it's good, but I'd rather fight a dozen raid bosses at once! My lord.
There's still more.
"Ah" Me, too! "Ah"! "Ah"! "Ah"! Someone help me! Café Kanako Thank you! Sorry you had to pay.
We couldn't eat them all.
I had no choice.
Will you go home and rest, my lord? I was going to see the rest of the festival, but I think I will Um You two go on without me.
I need to make a stop before going back.
Thank you! Dandelion barley tea is good for digestion, right? I'm sad I couldn't attend the Twilight Banquet, but Shiroe worked hard for me.
I'll have to thank him.
It hurts Three people eating twelve whole cakes? How did she figure that? Oh, right.
A cake buffet? It'll probably be there tomorrow.
Why not go? It'll be free.
That sounds great! I'll definitely go.
Thanks for the information, Shiro! Sure.
I wonder how many whole cakes he'll end up eating But all the girls love Soujirou, yet he still does well running his guild.
Naotsugu or Chief Nyanta seem more like guild masters than I do.
I don't really have the presence.
Maybe Henrietta's right, and this would be a good chance.
I should make time to spend with everyone.
My lord.
When did you get there?! Just now.
Is something wrong? No, nothing The town is even more lively than usual.
It is a festival, after all.
When we first arrived in this world, I never would've imagined it.
Yeah.
You're quiet.
I'm always quiet.
Yeah, but My lord Do you, well Dislike cake? Or did you not have fun? That's not true Anyway, I'm sorry we didn't get to the finals.
That doesn't matter to me.
It was Minori who wanted to go.
I see But was that cake okay with you? It felt like I was doing all the eating.
Did you have any? I I wasn't there for the cake.
Oh It's hard to hold a conversation with you, my lord! I don't know what to say.
You just don't talk much.
That isn't true I have all sorts of things to discuss.
Then give us something to talk about.
Was that a little harsh? Um, I didn't mean I'm sorry.
Er Wait It's fun to do this.
Is that really fun? It is.
Oh Is this part of her lord-and-servant role playing? This is enough? Yes I see.
What is this? Why? Akatsuki likes Shiroe! I I also like him.
It isn't fair! Shiroe is mine! Not fair? How could I have said that? It hurts This isn't Minori? What are you doing here? Whoa Look at your face Tohya! Well? What happened? Listen, Tohya.
I think I like Shiroe What? You're just now figuring it out? It was obvious to the rest of us.
No way He's nice, and he's caring.
He's like a teacher.
I can see why you'd admire him.
How could you tell? Of course I can tell! We're twins! I admire him, too! You like him, too?! Not like that! This is a problem Why? "Why"? I don't think it's a problem.
It's not a problem You're just hurt, Minori.
Is it okay? You can't help it, right? You're right It isn't a problem It just hurts.
I haven't lost anything, and I haven't done anything.
I haven't done anything yet, have I? That's true.
Yeah.
The girl simply admired him.
She wanted to be like him To follow him.
To stand behind him.
That was all.
But it didn't take long for those feelings to turn to love.
Minori is in love with Shiroe.
Student of the Mage Next time: Student of the Mage.
We will change the world.
