History Awesome / LogHorizon

*** Underpinning this awesome is Krusty, who isn't ''in'' Akiba at the time. Takayama Misa conveys a message from him (received from transmission) about how "if you are not upset when something is taken, then it couldn't have been yours in the first place". Raynessia realizes this message was for her, because Krusty understands her well-enough to know this would happen and wanted to encourage her. This is what gives Raynessia the confidence for her awesome moment, because she ''is'' upset and she is ''not'' to going to let someone take away what belongs to her (i.e. her place in Akiba).

* Eins and Touri Saiguu are meeting with Shiroe and Naotsugu about the proposed new Akiba Goverment and dissolution of the Round Table. They're basically making a WeCanRuleTogether speech, and it is clearly wearing down Shiroe's resolve. Between their flattery of his intelligence and appealing to his desire to support the peace and prosperity of Akiba, he is ready to agree with them. That, by itself, is pretty awesome, but then Raynessia arrives and totally steals their thunder.
** She marches right up to Touri, the leader of the Saiguu family, one of the most powerful political leaders in Yamato and her arranged fiancé, and says "No, Your Majesty". Unfortunately, she can't be his wife right now because she has "unfinished business", which she must complete first. It is a matter of place, not person, so it simply can't be done from the capital in Kyo. Said business is being the bridge between the local adventurers and landers, so it will ''never'' be finished. She does all this while wearing the Round Table Conference jacket, visually declaring where her loyalties lie. With a few short sentences, she gets Shiroe on her side, when Eins and Touri failed with a full conversation. It's basically a BigDamnHero moment, [[SilkHidingSteel just polite and lady-like.]]

** Princess Raynessia solves a political problem between Noble Landers and Akiba's Round Table Council by CuttingTheKnot; instead of complicated and disrespectful politicking, she's going to travel to Akiba itself and respectful request the aid of the individuals living there. She even ropes Crusty into being her escort!

** Raynessia makes her request and ''1,200'' adventurers answer her call. Shiroe stated earlier that Akiba would be safe regardless of what they did and Raynessia admitted that she couldn't offer any reward, but they still JumpedAtTheCall. This means she convinced him on sheer charisma. One of them calls her a "goddess".

* Episode 8 delivers several of these for Akatsuki

** After being off his game in the prevopis episode, Shiroe's tactical genius returns. He outmanuevers the Eternal Moths and even deduces the underlying pattern behind an AoE attack that Rieze thought was random. By the end of it, Rieze decides that his fame is well-deserved.

* Episode 2: The trio are attacked by a group of [[PlayerKilling PKers]], who tell them to hand over all of their items or die. Shiroe mildly states, "I'm willing to give them the money..." then [[AdjustingYourGlasses adjusts his glasses]] and flashes a borderline SlasherSmile, adding "...that is, if they can beat us." What follows is an utter CurbStompBattle made possible by ThePowerOfFriendship, demonstrating just how good they are at working together.

** Princess Raynessia solves a political problem between Noble Landers and Akibara's Round Table Council by CuttingTheKnot; instead of complicated and disrespectful politicking, she's going to travel to Akibara itself and respectful request the aid of the individuals living there. She even ropes Crusty into being her escort!
** And a more subtle one shown at the end: In the span of just a few months, the adventurers of Akibara have turned their city into such a sprawling metropolis that at night the lights from the city can be seen from dozens of miles around.

** Raynessia makes her request and ''1,200'' adventurers answer her call. Shiroe stated earlier that Akibara would be safe regardless of what they did and Raynessia admitted that she couldn't offer any reward, but they still JumpedAtTheCall. This means she convinced him on sheer charisma. One of them calls her a "goddess".

* Episode 2 provides an off-screen moment for Willaim Massachusetts. After he declined to join the Round Table Council in Akibara, he moved north. There he and his Silver Sword guild defeated Demikas and Brigandia, took Suzukino's administration from him, and turned him into his own minion. In the episode proper, he intimidates Demikas into standing down without lifting a finger.

** The Silver Sword guild wins the three-way raid boss battle, thus completing the Abyssal Shaft raid. Their reward is a ''pile'' of phantasmal class items! A black pillar will stand at the bottom floor and declare their accomplishment forever.

** Roe2 summons angelic creature to help her "younger siblings" and it does tremendous damage to the entire wyvern flock. The visuals for both are amazing.

** After being off his game in the last episode, Shiroe's tactical genius returns. He outmanuevers the Eternal Moths and even deduces the underlying pattern behind an AoE attack that Reize thought was random. By the end of it, Reize decides that his fame is well-deserved.

** Meanwhile, in TheStinger, Roe2 managed to get a lead for Log Horizon to get onwards with their plan to establish contact with the Navigators on the moon... by finding and safeguarding a ''launch facility with an intact space shuttle''. And while the shuttle might have taken too much damage to fly without major maintenance in the years of it's disuse, it's launch station's communications will have much greater range than they could ever find in a radio station!

** Isuzu sings her own original song and it captivates everyone. Instead of simply carrying new songs, she had written a new song within the world itself. The WorldOfCardboardSpeech leading up to it amplifies the awesome.
