This is another Kanami focus volume. It shows what she and her group have been doing while Shiroe did his The Chessmaster thing in Japan. It also reveals what happened to Krusty after he disappeared. It is excellent place to pick up the series after watching season 2 of the anime because it overlaps a bit.
It is heavy on introspective philosophical themes. Krusty reflects on his lack of in-game memories as well as his pre-Apacolypse past (interesting itself) and then applies this in an awesome way in the climax. Elias angsts about feeling useless due to his Thou-Shall-Not-Kill curse among other things. Leonardo is linked and contrasted with Elias and the pair also do something awesome in the climax.
The climax is a great pay off from the prior build up.
Also, there's world building for the Chinese server. The developers there found an efficient way to populate endless content over a wide area and this has produced unfortunate side-effects since the Apocalypse. I enjoyed reading about all that and how it compares to the domestic and inter-city troubles in Japan.
Hua Diao (a child-size martenfolk) and Krusty make both a charming moe couplet and a fun comedic duo.
Most of the combat takes place in two major stages and they are amazing. They are these focus bits of streaming action, story pay-off and character development.
Each chapter/section provides a character sheet for a present character. Their level, stats, and flavor text for their items, which are fun to read about.
Trickster Eric Novels gives "Log Horizon v 11 - Krusty Tycoon Lord" an A+
