Go East, Kanami!

"When the Catastrophe hit, American Elder Tales player Leonardo was one of the many people trapped. Stuck on the Chinese server with none of his friends and surrounded by thousands of monsters, his situation is hopeless...until a headstrong girl comes to his rescue! Kanami, the former Debauchery Tea Party leader, recruits him for her party. Along with the hero Elias, the blank-faced healer Coppélia, and a strange white horse that can talk, the group resolves to travel to the Japanese server, the only place where the new expansion pack unlocked before the Catastrophe struck. The long trek eastward begins!"

Log Horizon 9: Go East, Kanami! (Kanami, Go! East! in the Japanese version) is the ninth volume of the Log Horizon light novel series, and the first of a side-plot focused on Kanami's Party in the Chinese server. It is continued in volume 11.

Debauchery Tea Party
The Appendix to volume 9 gave information for the Debauchery Tea Party members, including those who were not online during the Catastrophe; they had previously been revealed in a fan book, but were never officially published.

Along with the basic information of the members, there was also a relationship chart given. However, the relationship chart did not include every member in it due to the lack of space.

Overseas Classes: Part 1
Mamare Touno and Ishihara Shinji (the anime director) created designs and class icons for the unique overseas server classes. In this part they covered the North American, Central/South American, Korean, and Chinese servers. At the end of the description, it stated that they would continue with the second installment, which was released in volume 11.

Trivia

 * The contents of Go East, Kanami! were taken from a side-story called "Dragonhowl Mountains" that Mamare originally published on his website (the now-defunct mamare.net). In chronological order of his writings, this is also the first time Kanami is named; volumes 1-5 never reveal her name.
 * Leonardo's resemblance to the famous Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle is also downplayed for the published volume; he looks like a frog, not a turtle, and his favorite food is sushi instead of pizza. The latter change didn't make it into the anime or manga, which still have him say that he's fondest of pizza.
