Momon and Nabe were in the Imperial capitol before the workers were recruited, he revealed his power to Fluder (following a plan laid out by Demiurge) and had him make arrangements for the raid on Nazarick using the workers who agreed that the reward was sufficient to risk their lives. It was only after the peace negotiations that Jircniv realised that he had been betrayed. Jircniv is one of the few genuinely decent people and an S rank leader, the Empire is a fairly nice place to live (unlike the Re-Estize Kingdom that has a lot of corrupt nobles and super shady gangs).

[@GeoffFrizzell-kz3rg]

Yeah, those plans Demiurge makes. Technically, all the workers, since Momon organized the raid on Nazarik based on Demiurge’s plan, WERE invited to enter Nazarik. 🤔 This is really a replay of the “sure, btw, Sebas can you get some grain (while I organize getting Tuare kidnapped)” kind of plan Demiurge always builds.

The reason why Jircniv decided to fight against Ainz is that he thought Ainz is going to destroy them either way because he's an undead. Undeads are known for hating the living in that world. Furthermore Ainz has a good reason to kill every living beings to turn them into undeads, as Jircniv previously mentioned. That's why he thought the only way for humanity to survive is to destroy Ainz somehow. I personally think his thoughts are pretty logical

[@Ted_Kenzoku]

he's still jumping the gun a little too fast without much info on his motivations when like he said that decision he made can be decisive for mankind in that continent

[@archaotist3365]

I agree with "Nobody". We as the viewers have extra context and familiarity with the Character "Ainz". Jircniv has next to none. Right before he realized he was betrayed by his head magician he declared that that was a Demon King he just visited, "Death". He believes that no matter how any conversation goes, the Demon King's end goal is the death of humanity. Sitting and waiting any amount of time only allows the "Demon King" to gather/prepare whatever preparations are needed for the attack on humanity and the longer Jircniv waits to collaborate with other countries the worse things are for humanity.

To display the sheer difference in ability of nazarik and the rest of the world, death knights are considered thrash mobs by nazarik useful only for their special ability to not be one hit killed whereas the new world denizens consider them to be legendary undead. You guessed right Demi is in frog form to prevent people from connecting him to jaldaboth. The reason the emperor was able to remain standing was due to an item that improves his mind resistance he uses to prevent low tier mind control

"Just so they can't escape?" No, the portal is to bypass all the levels between the surface and throne room, first to save time, second to avoid all the traps, and third to keep the guests from seeing too much of the layout and defences.

[@WolforNuva]

If I recall correctly though they actually walked through the whole tomb in the novels because the tomb set up so the *only* way to freely teleport within is with a guild ring, which of course they're not going to hand out to guests. The portal here is a time saving measure so they don't have to show the Emperor and company walking through each floor, losing their shit at how each one is so diverse and filled with powerful monsters.

He can mimic the appearance of equipment but needs the actual equipment to have their effects which also means that he can use any and all equipment of those he mimics as he gains their class builds.

He might have some spare slots free to memorize new forms, which could be anyone he's met, but he can't just become anyone and everyone so long as he knows about them.

[@yurihuffles]

BTW, small note for you from the LNs. The reason Yuri Alpha is often one of maids greeting guests is not just she’s the oldest of the BattleMaids, but she’s also one of the few citizens of Nazarick to actually have a “Good” alignment, and therefore less likely to let “accidents” happen to guests.

[@MonkeDLoopy]

Jircniv (the emperor) is actually a great ruler. He may be called the “bloody” emperor but that’s because he got rid of incompetent/corrupt nobles, that were making life harder for the people. I also found him a likeable character for, I find it funny that you’re cautious every time you like a character 🤣

[@rohan1970b]

In case you didn't recognize it, the first meeting between Ainz (Momon) and Fluder was at the start of Episode 6. Fluder then suggested sending the workers once he was working for Ainz already, giving a pretext for "retaliation".

[@nyanbrox5418]

Demiurge's plan was honestly genius, and what's even funnier, is demiurge needed momon for it to work, and originally Demiurge was against the idea of Momon the adventurer if I'm not mistaken Now Demiurge is left thinking that Ainz is a genius who realised from the first week of being transported to the world a pretty darn solid plan of how to conquer it, and to rule it in a pleasing way, when in reality having as many resources as Momonga does, on top of the most genius advisors on the planet, aside from maybe Renner exactly, is just so much in his favour that he could do almost anything and you could find some connection with it and a path to world domination Sort of like in a game like chess where you have all your pieces and your opponent just has a king, even an amateur can win from that position, and there is literally no way to lose, though it may end in a stalemate

[@mydor123451]

Here we go again- 9:57 The 4 are chosen by their strength and not loyalty, She specifically is the most untrustworthy of knights he has, its noted and explained in the LN why shes even there in the first place but basically they are moreso mercenaries than protectors, unlike the kingdoms "Royal Select" captained by Gazef Stronoff. 11:55 cool thing the anime missed, when Mare and Aura barged into the empires castle, Jircniv(the emperor) invited them in for a drink and tried to 1- Figure out how Ainz found out he was the one who sent the workers 2 - Figure out what sex each of the twins are and how he could exploit them later on (He ends up sure that both are girls btw lol) 3 - While doing 2, He offered them the best drinks the empire can offer and the twins called the drinks "meh" and asked if they give any bonus effects like Yigdrasil consumables give, Jircniv had no idea what they meant by "bonus effects" and was somewhat offended by them calling their drinks disgusting. ^ in this scene, he realized what they meant, this weird juice gives bonus stats (which is why he feels so calm) and is tastier than what he offer them. 12:59 In the LN he realizes that they aren't human given how strong of an aura they give and how non-chalant they are when being nearby monsters like the death-knight. Yes the emperor is seriously smart, I'd say 2nd only to Renner in the realm of humans as far as I'm aware. 13:14 dude rewatching this episode makes me realize just how many cool stuff they missed ! during this walk all the men including the emperor are in shock from the decoration and how mythical and godlike they are, once the enterance to the throne room opens and Yuri and Lupus let them in alone, the doors open automatically as to make sure Ainz doesn't wait for them to courage up and enter. Once in, they find themselves surrounded by ALOT of Ainzes minions on both sides, from demons to insectoids etc.. and ofc at the throne Ainz and his Guardians. 14:20 as far as I'm aware, thats just his natural look, maybe for extra intimidation 14:30 Jircniv wears a necklece that increases his mental strength, making him somewhat immune(?) to psychic-type powers (also when they were outside, it was windy and cold and he wore a special clothing that keeps him warm regardless of outside temp, when the knight said she feels warm, he took it off, yes its only in the LN :c ). 17:26 YESS AHHAHA I laughed so hard when Jircniv recalls both in this scene and afterwards just how powerful of a ruler type vibe he gets from him, that "hes probably been a ruler for quite some time" because of that gesture LOL. 21:57 in the LN this is like 4 pages of Ainz legit panicking cause he was legit just winging the entire conversation with the emperor. One of the more funny interactions between him and the guardians, it was like a teaching asking their students about a topic they have no idea about themselves. 30:25 interestingly enough (and it caught me off guard aswell), in the LN Cocytus offers "King of Darkness" and thats the name that is picked.

21:12 For clarification: That was indeed demiurge, he just didn't go with them, as he will just be a contact that will be available for questions and exchanges of information. Pandoras actor as a level 100 floor guardian, can copy all appearances, aura, and abilities of the thing he mimics, however only to an extent. Copying demiurge for example would make him a lv. 90 demon with all of demiurges abilities instead of an exact copy.

There was a lot of stuff that was cut in anime in this episode.(adds to world building but not too important) a summary of cut stuff: After Mare killed the soldiers in Empire, they were invited inside and served the best available drinks, Emperor was trying to impress them with his wealth so they might consider joining him, but the twins just said the drink is mid and they are bored, and it hurt emperor`s ego, Then Emperor mistook Aura as the male and thought about trying to bribe her with promises about saving all the enslaved elves for a small favour and after Aura doing the favour blackmail her and use their power for himself.(but we all know Aura and Mare don`t care about anyone outside of nazaric) and then comes the scene of Emperor drinking the juice that death knight offered, after drinking it he understood the twins and how they weren`t arrogant, They simply had godly drinks and thats why he said i just want to go back. Also Emperor took a whole carriage full of beautiful noble women by force to give as a gift to Ainz, but the moment He saw Alpha and Beta , he instantly dropped the plan and the girls were dropped in front of their houses when they got back. And the Knight woman had that yellow stuff on her face because after killing a monster she was cursed and half her face is oozing with disgusting shit and Emperor was able to buy her loyalty by promising her that he will try to find a cure. Btw the emperor has a harem himself and many kids, but his true lover is a not good looking woman that is the only girl capable of giving him advices, but she denies becoming his queen because she believes she is not good enough for it.

[@katxiii3660]

Leinas Rockbruise, the female knight serving the emperor, serves him solely to find a way to lift the curse that causes half of her face to ooze pus (which is what you saw when she used the tissue). The deal they made was that she was ultimately in it for herself. The reason Jircniv accepts this is because she's just that good. She's apparently the strongest of the four (well, now three since the big shield guy was killed by Mare) imperial knights, and is not much weaker than Gazef Stronoff, who while weak compared to Nazarick, is an absolute beast overall, and the main reason the Kingdom hasn't fallen to infighting. So yeah, Jircniv got the chance to hire someone close to Gazef in strength, with the caveat being that she would run off if she faced a hopeless situation, which is ultimately not that big of a deal. If she and the other knights couldn't win anyway, then it doesn't really matter if she runs off or if she dies fighting, at least not to Jircniv. Yeah, Jircniv is a solid dude. He's definitely arrogant, but not to the point where it impacts his effectiveness. He cares about his country and is perfectly willing to sacrifice his own safety (by going to Nazarick) or his own comfort (his purge means he now has to overwork a lot to keep things running) for the good of the Empire. He's also highly intelligent (though not as much as Nazarick's best strategists Demiurge and Albedo, or the genius princess Renner who is able to understand the full political situation of the Kingdom from just a few whispers and her maids). As Ainz said when he and Narberal visited the Empire capital, the people of the Empire have bright faces. Ainz described them as people who believe they have a good future ahead of them. Unlike the Kingdom, where a lot of people live in squalor and shit, there is constant infighting between the nobles, rampant crime problems thanks to eight fingers, conscription among the peasants to fill the armies, and the need to rely on adventurers to keep the roads safe because there's nobody else to do it. The Empire doesn't have corrupt nobles anymore, and those who still live don't have power anymore, because of Jircniv's purge. He has a professional army so he doesn't have to conscript peasants, the crime problems are mostly spillovers from the Kingdom's crime problems (smuggling from eight fingers for example), and there is less need to rely on adventurers, since there are also professional soldiers helping with security. That's also why Workers are popular there, since the adventurer's guild is less needed. Jircniv uses the difference in their militaries for his annual war, which you've been told about before. Every year, he declares war on the Kingdom for some bullshit reason. They march their armies to the border (usually the Katze plain near E-Rantel, where Momon operates), and start fighting. Except it's never a full scale battle. Jircniv just skirmishes a bit and then they fuck off and declare defeat. The Kingdom isn't strong enough to force a more decisive victory, so they go home as well. Why? Well, the Empire has professional knights and soldiers, who are paid simply to be soldiers. The Kingdom conscripts peasants, who have to leave their farms unattended during the time of harvest (when Jircniv attacks). Year after year, many harvests fail due to this, and the Kingdom is being driven to a famine. However, because it's such a corrupt shithole, and most nobles would do anything to increase their own power, nobody actually does anything about this. The king can't just build up a professional army as well, because the nobles wouldn't accept this. If they did have such an army, that would be too much power for the king, since how these types of countries usually work is that the leader calls upon the lower nobles to handle conscription of the people in their own territories, and those nobles command their own little armies. If you've ever seen Game of Thrones, think about how for example the Starks "call the banners", and drum up all the loyal families, who bring their own armies with them. We've seen Demiurge in this form way back at the start of the show before. Don't know for sure why he looks like this right now. The emperor stayed standing because he has an item preventing mind control. People who are high enough level can withstand it as well, but he's not nearly that strong (if he was, he wouldn't need those knights). As far as leaving Demiurge and Vermillion with the other, I guess it's less that they're permanently left with the other, and more that they come over every now and then to handle business, or something like that. Not completely sure. However, Demiurge has other duties as well, like overseeing his happy sheep farm, so it's unlikely he was ever going to constantly reside in the Empire. And yeah, Fluder Paradyne betrayed Jircniv. Ainz went to see him as Momon, and showed him his insane magical power, which made Fluder submit to him. And Jircniv realizes that Fluder has betrayed him, but Fluder is so insanely strong that he can't actually do anything about it. Fluder is a 6th tier magic caster, making him at least stronger in magic, and probably stronger overall, than Evileye, who is herself an insanely powerful being. Where Gazef's existence prevents the nobles of the Kingdom from turning on the king, Fluder's existence prevents entire countries from making moves against the Empire. He could probably deal with the entire army of the Kingdom on his own. So if Jircniv were to kill him, ruin him politically, demote him, or anything of that sort, it would come back to bite him in the ass by allowing other ambitious countries to make moves against him. As Jircniv said, Fluder was the one who 'discovered' the tomb, and suggested sending the workers. He was part of Ainz's (well, more like Demiurge's) plan from the get go.

In a previous episode when the workers got into Nazarik, we saw the lizard man and ainz wearing a shackle around their necks, that was a special item with the effect of gaining more experience, Ainz wanted to see if he could level up in the new world. In the same way some used to think that it was an animation error, but the thing is that the emperor dude was wearing magic items as well which is why he didnt kneel when Demiurge used his voice skill.

No, it's not the first time we saw him like this, first time was S1E2, which is the scene where Ainz accidentally tells him he wants to conquer the world. Yes, it was to prevent someone from recognizing him as Jaldabaoth, same reason Shalltear had a blonde costume at the end of S2 The emperor has an amulet that makes him immune to mind control spells, which is why he resisted Demi's commands Demi and the secretary did not switch places because they will be waiting for the preparations for Ainz declaring his kingdom first "A somewhat intelligent man is often easier to read than a fool" what a great line by Demi, sad he doesn't realize the irony when he can't comprehend Ainz' actions xD In case the anime explanation wasn't clear enough, at the beginning of episode 6, Fluder met with Ainz, soon after that meeting, Fluder told the emperor about the tomb and recommended to send workers, the emperor did through a low noble so that if anything goes wrong, he had an escape goat, therefore the massacre of episode 7 and 8 was orchestrated by Demiurge to force Jircniv to make an alliance with Ainz.

[@stallojrk9502]

The emperor was very smart in that situation, immediately understood ainz's intention for the meet, and even figured out fluder(the old wizard) has met ainz after observing very slight changes in his demeanour. His plan is also very logical considering ainz's undead status and power. It's just unfortunate that super big-brained people like Demi and Albedo have figured him out. It's pretty easy for us spectators to immediately pass his plan as stupid, but he did very very well considering the cards he was dealt with.

About Demiurgue's appearance, you nailed it. And regarding the Emperor staying standing: it's not mentioned in the anime but he's wearing magical items, one of which helps resist mind control, hence why he wasn't controlled by Demiurge.

[@ShadowSatyr]

Oh fyi in case you missed it, earlier in the season when Ainz was in the Empire with Nabe, he asked about the Fleuter dude. I think that’s when Ainz met with Fleuter by pulling strings as an adamantite adventurer (they are the secret power houses of nations if they can get hands on them). Ainz made a deal with Fleuter and created this whole fiasco with the tomb raid and now the emperor visit to Nazarik. Thus, The emperor figured out that Fleuter betrayed him since Fleuter didn’t ask to stay and learn magic from Ainz.

[@djhz2001]

14:29 The Emperor's crown protected him from Demiurge's spell. 28:11 It was the The Eminent Princess Renner, the Beautiful Treasure of the Re-Estize Kingdom, who gave Nazarick the locations of the 8 Fingers bases and has been working with Nazarick since Season 2. You could have figure this out all this during Season 2 if you paid attention to the various clues they gave during Season 2. For instance, the order in which Nazarick got the info on the bases, the fact that Shalltear did not kill Brian when she saw Brian fleeing to Climb, the Princess guard, etc. 32:14 Fluder met with Momon when Momon visited the Empire's Capital and leaked the location of Nazarick to Fluder so that he could send the workers to Nazarick and so Nazarick could have an excuse to force the Emperor to apologize and make them do something for them. The Emperor proposed the alliance and to help him obtain his country, but the Emperor will likely not give lands of his own empire to Ainz, plus Nazarick is within Re-Estize, so you can guess what is going to happen next. Of course, the Emperor tried his best to survive, but he was dancing on the palms of Nazarick from the beginning. The fact that Fluder only cared about magic and learning about magic was the one thing that Nazarick used to bring him to their side, which is something they learned when Sebas was posted on the Re-Estize Capital. As for Momon, he is a respected adventurer. Nazarick may use this reputation for some purpose.

[@jenjenhocho3188]

27:07 "A somewhat intelligent man is often easier to read than a fool." - Demiurge "Eh?" - Ainz Oowl Gown 😂

That old wizard met momonga before they went to Nazaric. And he sent those adventurers to Nazaric. Because Ainz wanted that. Ainz needed an excuse to made a contact with that country. To let world knows we are here. And we are making our moves. We will go out there and kill everyone to bring peace to myself. Basically those adventurers only used as a pawn. That's the saddest part. That old wizard knew all along they will die. He just sent them to their death. And ainz fought with those 4 adventurers because he knew why they are here. He was just amusing himself. That's brutal.

[@Ryanubet35]

Pandora's actor can mimic not only the appearance but also the abilities of a specific number of people (70, i think), but he is only able to use 80% of their power. As in if he was to copy a spell Ainz used that did 100 dmg, pandora's actor's version would do 80 dmg. His presets are all the original members of the guild, and the floor guardians. This is why he is the vault guardian as at any moment he could be any member of the guild and have access to their equipment.

Fun Fact: Overlord is Ains Race. The highest undead race that is related to magic. It will look like this. Name: Ainz Ooal Gown LvL: Max (in not really sure the max Lvl it's either 90 or 100) Race: Overlord Karma:-5000 Etc...

[@ODDnanref]

Max negative karma is -500. Max level is 100. You still gain XP after 100 to fuel super tier magic.

[@MajorSkrewup]

If I'm not mistake you have 2 types of 'levels.' Race levels and class levels, so race levels will level him up skeleton > skeleton mage > liche (for example.) While class levels will level up his abilities, so for instance he could spend points making himself a liche and spend his class points on elemental magic so be able to user a wider variety of that class of magic.

[@2DTL]

As the author said: "Everything could happen in your Overlord" meaning that the author would be happy to read fan stuff. 0:41 - Originally it was planned 23(?), but the author decided to shorten it up to 18. All available online (fan translation) - better than official. Besides the original series, it's VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to read "The vampire princess of lost country", I don't know how to properly describe it, it just feels dark, adult and dense(?, in a good way). 0:56 - Most of the things that were left out are: World building and Momonga's thoughts, so you'd understand him better. Why he does specific things or how he comes up with them. 1:39 - Yes.... But not in the anime... 3:07 - Ha... 4:22 - Not sure if I should respond to that, but it's not mentioned nor in the anime, not in the LN. From the previous seasons we know that those countries are at war and that's it. 7:25 - iirc, she used her eye as a scout thing, that's why there's that weird thing. I'm not sure, so I can be wrong about that. 9:06 - Just a reminder, that everything above level 2 is already NUTS. 11:47 - I think in the LN, Alpha told them that is a Lemonade. 14:28 - We've seen Demiurge in this form before. 21:18 - Pandora's Actor can even mimic the members of AOG (players) - we've seen him impersonating Tabula Smaragdina (the creator of Albedo) when we were introduced him the first time. 34:28 - Who knows. Let's just wait ;)

[@Gazzl33t]

7:25 is due to a curse she received while fighting a monster, the whole right side of her face is disfigured and constantly oozing puss. She serves Jircniv as a means to earn funds to try to research how to have the curse lifted, it's not stated in the anime at any point though, also Jircniv is aware that if it means removing the curse she'd betray him in a heartbeat.

In anime Rudeus tries to do magic once and it works, he got to caat spell with a chant almost right away as well. In light novel there is several pages about him trying it over and over, focusing and etc, he literally compares ot to learning combo in a fighting game. He describes all steps he learned magic in, how he learns about launching them and etc(you need to set size of spell before speed for example, he learned it because when he tried to set speed higher right away all he did was making waterball bigger and etc). Re Zero as well, they completely removed dialogue between Subaru and dude in the helmet, where we learn that he came from our world just like Subaru and etc.

There is currently about 14 or 15 translated novels available on Google Play right now for Overlord. Remember - it was mentioned there will be the 'annual' war between the Empire and the Kingdom. You are now seeing the Empire. As a note. That female knight is afflicted with a curse, which has deformed part of her face which is hiding behind her hair. She serves the emperor under certain conditions, as she has noted she will save herself. Fluder, btw, is a man who marvels at magic, even magic he has yet to get. So yes, he is literally like a 'kid in a candy store'. To see magic he wishes to attain. The Lizard guy is Demiurge, remember, he showed this look in the first episode. One note - Jircniv has been used to these macinations so he is hoping he will be able to 'out manuever' Ains, but as you see, Demiurge has already counted upon it. The end - This is when Fluder betrayed Jircniv.

10:07 That's a fair assessment in general, but would you hire Ironman if he had the same condition? Basically if you are facing weak foes you get the best bodyguard, and if you are fighting Thanos you are dead anyway. 11:50 Luke, though I get where your concerns are coming from, Nazarick has shown that it's able and willing to cater to the guest's tastes. So basically you don't need to fear them, if they want you dead they would just come and kill you. And if you have a working relationship they can be very amicable. 14:20 Remember that guy from Persona? Jaldabaoth was his name. Clearly he has nothing in common with our dude Demi. 17:20 Practice makes perfect, indeed. 28:10 They don't know why Ainz-sama is so sexy. There are still very heated debates about that in Nazarick. Day 30 of asking to react to "The tree song", "Never" and "Carry me away" from the anime "Kaiba".

well he does have 718 spells ... when the normal in game spell cap was something like 300... he liked to collect spells... there is a racial/class (?) skill (called "dark wisdom") that would allow to copy a spell (if you can learn it) from a fallen player after doing a ritual... he just went and collected spells from fallen players... till he had 718 ...this is a notable feat since Yggdrasil was a heavy PVP game and you would lose items and levels when you died and for each new spell after 300 he would have to kill a player (or at least have someone kill the player so you could sacrifice the body). so yeah sorcerous king , or magic king does fit the bill... specially in a place where level VI spells are considered legendary ...the dude can cast up to level XI... and that would be considered on god level (like the Slane Theocracy ... theirs gods could cast lvl X+ spells... they were players too) ... calling Ainz a god for the setting is not inaccurate... other players have been(/are) called the same.

[@arlangunadi8674]

9:54 Reason why Jircniv chose her to be his bodyguard despite her lack of loyalty is because the Empire is run on concept of Meritocracy. Even if her personality is lacking, as long as she produce result, she'll be rewarded. 14:19 Yes, the reason why he look like that is simply so that he won't be recognized from his past (And future) action as Jaldabaoth. Also the reason the emperor stay standing is because he has a necklace that prevent mind control. It's because being an emperor, he's always in the risk of someone manipulating his action, so he always come prepared.

28:20 "A dee pah" - Luke I can respect those words

[@bahajirutmspt436]

Wanted to say, among the lot Mare buried there was one of the four imperial knights. The higest ranking knights of the empire. 4:12 those were nobles of the kingdom, this is the empire. Neighbouring nations that are at odds. Thats it for now. 4:44 even in the novels there is so much happening I wish there was like 50 more volumes released already the world is so big and interesting. 14:07 nah you saw him like that in like, episode one. when Ainz accidentaly started his world domination plans. ***ANYTHING BELOW MAY CONTAIN INFORMATION FROM NOVELS UP UNTILL THIS POINT*** I only explain what Luke ask that was explained in the novels ,some stuff that was more detailed in the novels and a lot of what Emperor thinks so if you dont want to see that, be warned. 6:21 Renner is #1 most hated and Queen of Dragon kingdom is #2 specifically. This is skipped in the anime but in the novel we are show that Dragon Queen is literally in a loli form and uses her cute/innocent young girl look to make people, lets say more compliant. Although she doesnt like that very much. 8:39 In this scene emperor tries to use his womanizer charm and thinks somethink like "damn my charm doesnt work? I tought I would be able to lessen hostility if they were woman." Ill also say that yhis entire episode would be Emperor inner monologue of how none of his plans work if they were put them in the anime. 9:52 In this scene anyone who knew what a death knight was or had life or death combat experience was pissing their pants. Also to show how absurd a scene of 5 death knights preparing the table for them is I am copying a part from the novel and will put it just after timestamped comment if anyone wants to see (I normally wouldn just copy paste it but I just love how it is worded so much) 10:43 Emperor was losing his mind over the fact that Ainz not only controlled death knights but straight up created them. He thought they had to be bluffing. 11:41 In novels, when Aura and Mare came to deliver the message to Emperor he hosted them and gave them something to drink. Aura said that the drink was not good and said you couldnt gave me anything like we have back home anyway. Emperor understood what she meant here. 13:01 In the novel Emperor brought several ladies in waiting to give as a gift to Ainz, but decided not to after seeing how many beautiful woman are in the tomb. 13:18 I said before Emperor was always planning something in his mind through the episode, around here he decides his winning condition in this situation is empire not being destroyed and him being alive 14:26 In the novels he has a magic item that grants him resistance againts mental attacks. Even with that he states he would fall over if he lost focus for a moment. 15:36 You know what, just exaggerate every reaction you see from emperor and co in this episode. About 10x should be fine. 17:30 Yes it is and Emperor or co sees this move as a regal action of a ruler who has ruled for a long time. 18:42 you have no idea how many different kinds of mental gymnastics he is trying to do at any given scene in this episode 19:36 Emperor here thinks something along the lines of "you want us to celebrate turning into slaves?" 31:20 if anyone didnt get it, this is a flashback before raid of nazarick happend. In the novels Nabe removes her magic concealment ring first. Fluder goes nuts thinking its 7th or maybe even 8th tier magic. than ainz removes rings. Fluder says this must be the 10th tier and starts licking Ainzs boots and prostrating on the ground. He even says something like "I once worshiped a god of magick but if you are not them I will start worshipping you now if you allow me to." ... _However, after looking at the reactions of everyone around him, he knew it was a fact that they were undead which even the most powerful magic caster in Jircniv’s knowledge, Fluder Paradyne, could not command._ _This implied that there might be more than five of these monsters, whose fighting ability was far in excess of Fluder’s own._ _The object of comparison, Fluder Paradyne, was someone whose fighting power rivaled that of the entire Imperial Army. Of course, he did not have infinite mana, and in a straight fight, they might be able to win. However, if Fluder used teleportation or flying spells, then it would be the entire Imperial Army that would be slaughtered instead._ _That would mean that the five Death Knights here represented five times the fighting strength of the entire Imperial Army._ _Impossible._ _Something like this should not have happened._ ...

Heyo, your favourite subscriber here. For the question of how to learn more about Overlord, I have answered that before but I wanted to mention it again.

You can do reactions to his videos, afaik he shouldn't have a problem with that. You could upload it to GOT Extra as well considering that channel is for animes only it would make sense. It will also be probably more fun than reading the novels if you aren't all too into reading.

[@abdulzaelani9954]

Regarding your last concern, this is the funny part about Overlord, it was supposed to be a backstory of a villain In the WN, overlord are intended to be a prequel story, about the origin of the villain, in this case Ainz, that were able to conquer the new world and then after the story finished the author plan to make the actual "Hero" part of the story that gonna beat Ainz But here is the thing, since the novel was quite popular, the author scrap that idea and make Overlord to be it's own independent series and that's where we are. There are huge different between WN and LN, for example Albedo doesn't exist on the WN, but as the author plan to expand the story and add more details, he make albedo and give her a major role in the story (also fan service sells) There will be an actual threat to Ainz later on, remember the big blue dragon that appear at the start of S2, he is an actual threat to the point Ainz play safe when confronting him (it will happen on S4). And there are also the slane theocracy, which already appear since S1 and is the main enemy of Ainz (the one that "reset" shalltear, also has some people with potent ability in there). The problem is, as everyone realize which person is dangerous, all of them try to play it safe, meanwhile the little weak bug end up being the one that keep spawning, that's why it's feels the story going nowhere at this point

You can buy physical copies of the books in Japanese. The official English translations by JP Press are kinda weird sometimes and they come with a big delay on the JP versions. There are currently 16 Volumes out, and it will end at Volume 18 with both novels releasing at once. On the Overlord Subreddit, there is a link to download all quality fan-translated English Volumes on PDF (white or black) files for Volumes 1-16, as well as extra side-stories. As a LN reader, I heavily recommend reading Volumes 1-16 if you're interested in the Lore and cut content from the Anime. FYI, there's also Audible audiobooks of Overlord, I think they're up to Volume 4-5 now? Also on KZbin, fans also did TTS versions of all Volumes, including an Extra Volume of an alternate story.

Pandora's Actor is on the screen more than you think, he was the first appearance of Ainz confronting Sebas before he teleported away, it is hard to tell in Anime but only clue was his speech and tone of voice.

Ainz felt a bit bad about the entire masacre and pinning the blame on them so he looked for the first excuse to have a friend. Ainz feels like, since both are rulers of sorts, they should become boddies so he can learn from him how to be a proper ruler. You know, with Ainz feeling grossly underqualified for his role as ruler. Everything he says is said with goodwill and admiration for a fellow ruler. The rest is everyone else overthinking. 😂 28:12 Not only do they know, thia conversation implies that the princess is helping them somehow. As she is a "trump card".

Not content on being a magical genius, he wanted more, studied more reseached more. Is is a traiblazer, a path setter the explorer of magic. This also means he has the hardest path in front of him. Charting a new path is harder than walking a well treaded trail. Fluder as a trailblazer became tired of not being able to learn things like in school. He wanted to learn faster and learn more, so he set a school. A school were others might be able to catch up to him and surpass him, so he once more became a student able to learn instead of wasting time building the new path. However, for decades, his efforts bore no fruit. He resigned hinself to die without ever witnessing the ends of magic, the highest tiers. He taught the current emperor as if he was his child. Then everything changed when Ainz showed at his doorstep and showed him limits that lay further beyond what he imagined. Fluder had always been obsessed with mahic and kn Ainz he saw a teacher, a xhance to be a student once more, a chance to tread on a walked trail instead of mucking around trying to find a path blind. To Fluder Ainz is a savior, a way to accomplish his dream at last, a way to have no regrets. Hence why he offered everything to hom for a chance to be a student. Ainz saw in him a tool, an opportunity and an asset. With Fluder's genius they can further learn and implement what is game mechanics into real life things. Books that give classes no longer a limited resource as they can now teach the contents instead of consuming the class and skill books.

Pandora's Actor will have an appearance in season 3 before the end. He'll also be in the show a little more in Season 4. So there are some PA moments to come. The fun is trying to guess WHEN Pandora's Actor is on the screen. His little quirks often slip out.

Nazarick could probably conquer the world by force, but the player of Ainz knows, what surpression does to the people. If you conquer the world by force and fear, the people will come together and will uprise against their surpressor. So Nazarick is manipulating other countries, so that they do willingly ally with them

And now after the heartbreak, a kinder episode. 1- Overlord doesn't struggle to tell that many stories, on the contrary. It tells one story, then goes to the next, then the next after that. It makes the world feel real and alive because the world doesn't revolve around a single character or a single place. Every story is centered around it's own characters and places and Nazarick very often isin it by chance. The world doesn't revolve around them, if they didn't exist the world would still run perfectly well. This is like a good TTRPG game. If you come back to a city after a few years, that old blacksmith you loved so much might now be retired and his son will be there instead. Those kind of things help makes the world a way bigger place and a more interesting one too. 2- This is the second time we see Demiurge looking like this. The first time was when Ains was trying the armor for the first time and went outside to look at the stars. When he flew to follow him, Demiurge showed that appearance. It was before he talked about conquering the world in jest. 3- You didn't miss anything. The secretary and Demiurge haven't moved yet. They have to prepare their bags to move. They were totaly unprepared after all so it would be good to have at least a change of clothes before moving.

[@aleksandarvrecko6927]

Demy looks like that because it is one of his forms. He turned into that lizard in the secon episode when ainz went on a stroll and started flying and looking at the moon

My discovery of Overlord was just a random clip, of Momon in his armor fighting Clementine, turning into a lich and catching me by surprise. So I watched the anime, and soon after while waiting for season 2, I ended up reading the light novel. I highly encourage you to read it, the fan translation of it is great and of course you can purchase the official translation too, but I prefer the fan translation. And then there's the audio dramas that were also subtitled by fans. Even if you've watched all of the anime, reading the light novel from the start is well worth it. And even if you've read the light novel, watching the anime is well worth it. As for the movie, -it happens between Season 3 and Season 4 in regards to when the events of the movie happens timeline wise- oops. I misremembred. The movie occurs midway through Season 4. There is indeed so much to tell and you can probably see that the fans of Overlord are very happy to provide all the details they can. With a lot of us fans also wanting to try to not spoil details that you wouldn't have had the chance to know until that point in the story. A lot of people just want to take the opportunity to fill in the blanks that couldn't fit in a single episode.

The emperor has magic items that protect him from mind control which is why he remained standing

7:20 so pity it said a little about this ("coward") knight in LN, in anime said almost nothing, she had a curse, and serve only for hope to cure it, loyality(morale?) +- 0. but in winning situations she quite strong and helful, not rememeber if it in LN or WN but she tried to defect to Ainz with hope to heal yourself 9:30 FYI it not said in anime, but in LN : 1 Death knight is force what can spawn in one area, it equal to army... one what oldman catched is only cause he can flight, and DK kinda was unable to retaliate 11:50 it missed in anime but originally Emperior tried to feed "delicacy"(in his eyes) to D.Elf twins, but they was irrated as they feeded trash, he thinked they just posing, but here he understand how low his standards +- 14:00 at very begining (1st or 2nd not sure) when fly demiurg taken this look (to get wings, he can fly without it, but natural way is seems more comfortable), here he take it too hide his humanoid characteristics (he is Jalba...something so he try hide this fact) 16:00 u missing fact he had too much competent subortinates, he get glimpse of "his plans" from them, he kinda wished made it soft to build connection(even if it forced) but he will gain what he gain, due overcompetent subordinates 21:00 unsure if it mentioned Demiurge and Albedo 2 main strategists and smartest in Nazarick, most time is mentioned is Demi but Albedo not less cunning Pandora Actor can mimic ability (and stats?) but it much lower(2/3 or 3/4 not remember) of original, but for most this world residents it not much matter. as i said yearly it was demi in his non humanoid form 23:30 it mean diplomatic mission not right now (Emperior is leaved puny man in Nazaric cause it troublesome send different batch), Demi just got free pass in Empire when he want. 26:00 FYU most of countries named here can be Erased by any guardian with some +- little compatibility problem like Shalltear and theocraty, here possible more(not readed after holykindom ark cause translation was so trash at what time) 28:00 you will taste in 4rd season 34:00 with quite shy driver 35:00 it not said directly in anime but in LN and audio additions u will get to know he not 1st Isekaed here, and others died here for some reasons(not fact they strong as he but still), Ainz overcaution leader and due his unaging it right strategy i think (unaging must be, but he not 1st overlord here so unsure)

[@esrohm6460]

Me when I realize that dnd is really absorbing you inside when you come be with the world even just a bit

[@dinomarinovic5241]

So if we are talking about armor parts, first things you shield with armor are Head and Chest, and then the rest if you have money, legs are the final thing you protect as they are hardest to hit in Melee

[@loneghostwolf7388]

the bulldozer analogy at the end... 😂😂😂

[@VergilTheLegendaryDarkSlayer]

To the humans in overlord, magic above 6th tier is getting into the age of the gods That's why Fluder was extremely impressed from the control weather

[@diostaku2]

Demiurge is a shapeshifter demon, we had already seen him like this in episode 2, it is simply a security measure to make it impossible for anyone to associate him with the demon Jaldaboath.

[@leonielson7138]

"Yeah, what kinda "man" is he?" A madman

[@KingwolfLotts1]

34:00 . Now you get it 💀. Overlord is not your normal power fantasy. Is not a story about main character who struggle fighting enemies everytime. But the overpower villain who controlling behind the scene and create some scene. And the supporting/background character react to it (or respond to it). I am not gonna spoil anything but trust me Overlord is type of writing that have some crazy long build up and it will satisfy you in the end. So i just say this, for potential strong enemy to appear still there, just be patience and enjoy the ride. Let them cook i will say.

[@Zash0000]

Yes, drinking and eating food from Nazerick would be terrifying... But, it would be more terrifying refusing the hospitality of the denizens of Nazerick. You saw how Albedo reacted when Enri first refused the potion from Ains back in Episode 3.

[@bryku]

Ainz went to Fluder as Momon and revealed his true power. From here he used Fluder to get the Emperor to investigate the tomb by sending the workers. This forced the emperor to apologize and work with Ainz. If something lines up to perfectly or seems sus... the answer is always Ainz-sama Why does the sun exist? its because Ainz's red eyes reflect off his orb or something idk, but the answer is always Ainz-sama.

The Gilgamesh Lookalike and the Nobles from season two don't know each other very well, because they live in different countries. The Prinzess and her brothers are the kids of the King of the Re-Estize Kindom, (and for example Gazeff Stronoff the knight from one of the first few episodes of season one whom we've also met plenty in season two becaus of bromance with Brain Unglaus (or how you like to call him: Brian)) ist that kings personal Knight. The plains, where Nazarik appeared, the little village near Nazarik, where Enri and the Goblins live, and the town E-Rantel, where the adventurer Momon does his adventuring from all formally belong to said Kingdom. (But they all are near the border to the Baharuth Empire.) The Gilgamesh Lookalike on the other hand is the Emperor of said Baharuth Empire. This Empire also is the country that has a battle with the Kingdom every year. (I don't understand why either by the way.) This Episode and the previous two or three are the first episode we have seen any person from this Empire as far as I am aware of. And just as a little rule of thumb for you: If someone in the Anime sais 'the Kingdom' they usually refer to the first one. If someone in the Anime sas 'the Empire' they usually refer to the second one. There are a few more countries, that we allready know of, (the Slane Theokracy, the Holy Kingdom (that's a different Kingdom from the first one), this Republic country with a Dragon Council ruling over it, ...) but they usually get referred to by their full name. And the Slane Theocracy is the only other Country that we allready saw people from (and know which country they belong to).
