We consider wave equations with a special type of log-fractional damping. We study the Cauchy problem for this model in the whole space, and we obtain an asymptotic profile and optimal estimates of solutions as time goes to infinity in L^2-sense. A maximal discovery of this note is that under the effective damping, in case of n = 1 L^2-norm of the solution blows up in infinite time, and in case of n = 2 L^2-norm of the solution never decays and never blows up in infinite time. The latter phenomenon seems to be a rare case.
