DID SOMEBODY SAY LORE?: Overlord Season 4 Episode 11 Breakdown (LN Vs. Anime)

Did I make this video way longer than it needed to be by geeking out over Wild Magic and New World history? Definitely. Was it fun. Absolutely.

[@Xetrenix]

Fun Fact: The 1000 people Eight Fingers gathered were all related to the crime syndicate. As it's a big organization (big enough to have influence all over the Kingdom), the leaders of Eight Fingers chose the most loyal and outstanding members, including their family members. The order they received was to gather about 1000 loyal people to spare so that they may serve the Sorcerer Kingdom in the future.

Fun Fact : The Dragons didn't intend to summon players instead they wanted to summon a power on par with wild magic which was World Items and guess what, that desire for more made them indirectly have to confront players who have world items, also take note its not that the players are summoned on random to another world but its more likely that players who are in constant contact with world items and the structures or environment around the players that are holding world items are most likely to get summoned its just that the players seem to be a connecting point for the summoning spell casted by the Dragon Emperors wild magic and its a recurring spell that refreshes every 200 years to summon new players. . . . . . i may be wrong about some facts here but some of the info i mentioned here are my own hypothesis and theories that i came up with that seemed to match the lore bcs only Maryama knows whats the truth....btw i have watched overlord over 6 times now and read the novel twice XD just wanted to get my own theories out somehow lol.

[@HelloFellowMellowMarshmallow]

I saw someone on reddit say that since power from levels in Overlord increase exponentially and that there's a far bigger gap between a level 90 and a level 100 compared to a level 70 to a level 80, Pandora's Actor having 80% of Ainz' strength means he's probably like Ainz at level 95. PA was most likely holding back A LOT.

[@jaeannehidalgo4300]

That logic is similar in Diablo 2. When you hit the 90+ levels, every single level is so hard to get that there is a huge gap between a level 92 vs 95, and in ladde seasons, it is rare to see 100 (back in my D2 days 99+ is the highest)

[@filipvadas7602]

Yup. That's not even considering he had Ains's divine level gear and the fact that Ains himself told him him not to use his strongest spells.

[@mozie9277]

Pandora’s actor wasnt trying at all. The point of this fight was for him to gather as much intel as he possibly could, him killing PDL would ruin ainzs plan.

[@chechenko_9430]

Here’s the thing tho, grasp heart can maybe insta kill real PDL and even if it doesn’t, Ainz only have to cast black hole since he’d be stunned and insta kill him, also Ainz can stopped time He did it first with the workers that invaded nazarick and later with gazef He also posses the most powerful world item ever created in Yggdrasil that lets you rebuild the world as you see fit (kinda like civilization)

[@Alleis]

@@chechenko_9430 Grasp heart only kills "weak" targets. It's a tier 9 spell and it insta kills under level 60 I think. PDL is above level 90 because even his remote Armour is close to that so no that would not instakill. Ainz could one shot him if he uses "TGOALID" but that's basically it.

Another big giveaway that it was actually PA was the voice that was used for "Ainz" internal monologue. The real Ainz has Suzuki Satoru's voice for his internal monologue, meanwhile in that fight Ainz's physical(?) voice was the same with his internal one. When I first read that part in the LN, I was wondering what voice they will choose for that part if it ever gets adapted, will they choose PA's, Satoru's or Ainz's? Finally I got an answer to that question with this episode and I'm glad they didn't use PA's so that it won't ruin the surprise for most of the anime-onlies.

[@sensoine]

PDL and Azuth looks cool though, unfortunately for them Albedo and the rest of nazarick are in a different kind of level And yeah I notice that red orb thing usually in ainz is missing

[@SkynetT-X]

what lore

[@kesatoria7176]

@Humuhumunukunukuapua'a "Also the pdl is stronger than ainz. This was stated in the vampire princess novel." no, he isn't at all. and you are talking about a novel that isn't canon to the true story: "It details about the expansion of the alternate story of Momonga's journey into the New World." *ALTERNATE STORY* and the alternate story is this: "Overlord Twitter Side Story is a non-canon side story written by Kugane Maruyama. The story was posted on Maruyama's Twitter account on September 26, 2015." *NON CANON* So no, with all the intel we have ainz is clearly stronger than pdl, he even stated it himself, if pandora is "stronger" than him then it means that ainz is way more powerful than him because in overlord the power is exponential it means that for example a difference between level 10-20 isn't that "much" but a difference between level 90-100 is enormous idk if you play games but look at it like lost ark or diablo type. Imagine now the difference in power in the spells and itself between pandoras in Ainz at 80% and Ainz. So if we add all of this pdl would get destroy in a 1v1(and it's not even counting all the world item ainz has). You are right for the 2 first tho.

[@KushaSlayer]

What I've found to enjoy abt this recap series is that, not only do you get a great and easy to understand casual explanation of the cut content from the videos, it also became a gathering for other knowledgable fans who've read the LN to share interesting lore on. Things that a casual fan like me wouldnt have been able to know. I think you've created an easily accesible forum without realizing it hahaha. Thank you so much for the videos my dude, and to all you other veterans who expand the topics in the comments section too. You guys are awesome.

[@JeffDvrx]

What's sort of a miracle is that people in the comments tend to be careful not to spoil stuff

[@groottree7112]

You've spelled out the exact reason why I subscribed to him haha!!👍

[@ricardohk86]

My theory is that the Dragon Lords summoned the World Items, out of greed and this brought along the players who equipped the items or in Nazarick's case the entire guild, the fact that not everyone arrived at the same time is that the magic may still be active . The fact that some arrive earlier or later may be due to the amount of world items gathered in the same place. PDL believes that Albedo is the Player, only because he has a hard time believing that a certain group can have several of these items.

[@neobee602]

Not the Dragon Lords, but the Dragon Emperor Edit: similar to what you said, Dragon Emperor was know for his thirst for power, to the point the other dragons hate him for his greed and selfishness, Dragon Emperor would not hesitate to sacrifice his own kin for greater strength He use his power to summon the World Items to become stronger, but accidentally bringing along the players who owned them In case of Nazarick, the entire guild, not because the World Items in the treasury, but because the Throne (a World Item) in the Throne Room is connected to the entire guild itself

[@13pointedstar64]

The Platinum Dragon Lord does have rivals to the strongest New World creature, such as the female that dwells in the Sea City and maybe the Deep Darkness Dragon Lord who was able to kill a player and take their World Item, which was one of the Twenty.

[@XanKreigor]

The problem is Platinum Dragon Lord is level 70... most of the Floor Guardians would wipe the floor with him, let alone Ainz.

[@13pointedstar64]

Here's an argument for that, PDL's armour was estimated by PA, as Ainz, to be around level 90. PDL's main body has to be at least relative, if only his main body having better stats and unrestricted access to his Wild Magic. It is also stated by the Pontifex Maximus that PDL might use Zesshi assassinating the Elf King as a chance to kill her. From this we can infer that PDL is at least relative to Zesshi, who is level 88 with horrible class combinations. So, because of that I think that PDL is most likely level 90 to 95 at most. Still weaker than the Floor Guardians, but he would be able to give some of them a low-diff fight.

[@Daniel94484]

​​@@XanKreigorhe's armour around Lv 80, the dragon itself is probably above Lv 90, and maybe Lv 100

[@salvex234]

Don't know if somebody already mentioned this but, if you missed how Ainz's red orb was missing, you can also tell that it wasn't Ainz early on because Albedo talked so casually with him and not once did she use honorifics before she realized it, herself.

[@nswetc.1929]

man i was waiting for your upload. you know you've been a part of my weekly habit. after watching the overlord episode i was waiting anxiously for your video!

[@GetZ3rged]

I would say while ainz fooled pdl into how strong he was it can also be inferred that ainz doesn't know the true strength of pdl as pdl while talking to azurh mentions how if he was there in his actual body things could be different. So there is an obvious strength difference between using the armor and being there in person

[@sidecharacter7165]

They both had a very similar strategy and fooled each other ironically enough.

[@xxvaltielxx1789]

Also Wild Magic, Ainz has no clue about it, it's also another reason that irks me that Maruyama skipped the Draconic Kingdom, like, Ainz could have learned about that from Draudillon, even if that issue was resolved in the background, why would Ainz not get knowledge and lore from the Queen? It's just weird

[@raiden3522]

If PDL thinks that Albedo is a problem, then he really didn't stand a chance To the rest of Nazarick.

[@the7thresponse684]

Achtually- They know that the armor is being controlled remotely, in fact, Demiurge has deducted that it's either one of the thirteen heroes or Platinum Dragon Lord himself. So they probably know that the armor would be vastly different in power compared to the real deal.

[@EaGilgamesh]

I think i remember reading about a dark dragon lord living somewhere in the great forest of tobb, i think he may be stronger than pdl as he holds a world item or two and I believe he killed a player for it/them.

[@Xetrenix]

That's the Deep Darkness Dragon Lord (DDDL), and it was never confirmed (and is most likely false) that he's in the Great Forest of Tob. That was just a theory as the only thing confirmed was that he lived in a subterranean cave underground, and the Forest of Tob has underground caverns, which Aura didn't check as of Volume 8. However, by now, they should have been checked already so DDDL is probably somewhere else. As well, he owns one of the Twenty from a player he killed. It's theorized for him to be stronger than PDL because while PDL is a "counter" against undead, DDDL is a "counter" against all the Floor Guardians (able to win 1v1) except Shalltear and Gargantua, meaning he is probably at a disadvantage against non-living entities.

@@Xetrenix Where in the light novel is any of this? I’ve read all 14 and can’t remember a mention of this.

[@meowkitty4849]

All minor details you probably get here and there. They are probably true since they are things claimed by randos on the internet and if it were false multiple people wouldn't come up with the exact same information. Still just a theory. The world is probably full of potential hiding spots for dragons. They are good guesses though seeing as he's the dragon of absolute darkness and dragons generally like to hang around places that contain their element or are close to their element. It's not really treasure troves they hang around, but nests they turn into treasure troves that are in places they like. Deep Darkness almost seems like it foreshadows Chuthulu as he is the eldritch god of the deep. While he is usually referenced in regard to water, he also causes chaos and insanity wherever he is. We've had HP Lovecraft referenced already in the last season so I wouldn't be surprised if that was somehow part of his inspiration. Which undead are usually outright immune to mental attacks. That could be potentially why he is strong vs living enemies.

The thing people tend to forget is PA is capable of making a mimicking and using every piece of equipment from the "Supreme Beings of Nazarick" and every floor guardian. Remember Ainz v Shalltear? Shalltear is a powerhouse built to solo protect the first 3 floors of Nazarick alone. Ainz's build is an RP build. Skillful use of abilities and equipment allowed him to take down the highest combat rating floor guardian alone. Pandora's actor, is *smarter than Ainz*. He is roughly as intelligent as Demiurge, Albedo, and Renner. He is not only capable of mimicking every floor and area guardian, but every Supreme Being. Even if PDL is an ancient dragon that can use wild magic, and even if PA can only draw out 80% of a character's power, the only hindrance he has between him losing and trouncing PDL is the amount of info he can gather on PDL's battle style and build. He is a being made to not only mimick what he has seen but improvise what some of the top PVPers have done to come out on top. Also, don't forget he is the only character to question the words of Ainz, whom he not only sees as a Supreme Being, but as his father. Fully serious, fully prepared, I'm not sure if he'd even lose against Ainz.

Pandoras actor recognized almost instantly it was an empty suit of armor being controlled. Pandora was definitely holding back. The purpose of the mission was for information, not annihilation. Albedo states "I'll just let him happily talk away". PDL was going for the kill and didn't damage pandoras actor. This episode showed how much the guardians are learning and mastering the art of manipulation.

[@wontdisappointyou2994]

does no one remember PDL vs Shalltear? lets not forget the fact that PDL still has damage on his right shoulder 0:00 from when he tired to fight Shalltear. But all she did was auto retaliate from her mind control and slapped him once, which was enough to puncture his armor and make him retreat. and the fact she did that with out a world class item shows how strong she is compared to his armor suit and albedos word class weapon which didn't leave a mark after she hit him. just sayn' Aizns did beat shalltear >.>

But they feared their fate should Nazarick consider this a betrayal of their faith, which was why Hilma was so dejected in the anime

[@joeatnara7518]

Possible Spoiler in the question: What I dont remember clearly is how Renner opens the box. She prepared for the opening, but what does that mean? One theory I have is that it is related to those kids in the orphanage. She uses them as sacrifices to open the box. Another theory is that she uses the blood of her father, the king, to open the box. Once she opens the box she will become a mini-succubus and once she has enough levels she can be a regular succubus.

[@ODDnanref]

The box is an item required for a race change. So she can become a heteromorph or monster race. It gains her a level on imp. People think she had to do three things to open that box related to future, past and present. She killed her father and people suspect she killed the children. So she had to basically kill her past, present and future as a human. We know she created the orphanages after she got the box.

[@manonthemoonnow45]

So the theory I currently have is that the Dragon lords went after the EGKs because the EGKs used a world item to change the system of the New World to Tier Magic which screwed with their wild magic and so they wanted to get rid of the players.

seeing this man get so excited after each episode is so funny and wholesome at the same time :D

[@kishalaya7667]

as always great breakdown video for some reason i am hooked onto this season's ed, i can't stop it.....

[@jacobjohnson8635]

Great review, and yeah it was kind of a shame that Elemental Skull showed up just to show up because it actually puts in a lot of work in the fight. Which the fight itself kept going even after that monologue from PDL. I know the anime has a budget and that they can’t adapt everything, but PDL’s rage at “Ainz” countering that final blow with his summon as a distraction was hilarious.

[@dark_blue8002]

You know the MC is super op when his OP servants also have OP servants.

[@Naxos511]

I felt bad for the Elemental Skull, it took a big role in the fight in the LN and I personally liked it. When I read this part in the LN I was so confused reading the inner dialog of “Ainz”, I thought “wow he is smarter than I thought” until the reveal xD

[@ibnu7942]

rip rgb skull

[@zeuzcrafts]

what that skull actually can do ? because i didnt get it

[@Naxos511]

@@zeuzcrafts It used 9th and 10th tier elemental magic, the acid mist was quite effective against PDL.

[@LatelyDrowsy]

I don’t think this fight reached a level 100 level fight or even came close. Reaching level 100 is really only the beginning in Yggdrasil and afterwards you can still get much stronger. Pandora’s actor has by far the weakest combat power of any guardian simply because he makes it up in versatility. Unfortunately that means that the fight between him and PDL is on a much smaller scale.

[@tizio3409]

It wasn't supposed to reach that level, PDL was not using his real body and Pandora's actor was not fighting to win, he used every kind of elemental attack to see what he is weak against, and in the end found out that he is weak to acid magic as that type of spell dealt the most dmg while dark type spell dealt the least. (Now that sounds a lot like a pokemon thing but that was the point) While Tsa hoped he could kill ainz with the armor, it was mostly a test as he probably already knew that it would've been hard to kill a level 100 character with just an empty armor that mimics level 90.

[@sho7078]

Next time PDL meet Ainz, he's gonna be Platinum Dragon Loot

[@madambutterfly1997]

I love the JK Simmons laugh scene.

[@FrozenGoggles861]

What tipped me off was the fact that aniz's inner monologue was in his voice not satoru

[@johnyjoe2k]

My only problem so far in the anime and series is that in IRL MMO games, bosses are usually way stronger than single players. They require entire guilds to take them down, so where in this anime/series are these bosses???

[@petre1758]

I thought the whole point is that Ainz and the gang are essentially player controlled bosses. Also Ygdrassil seems more like a Albion Online kind of MMO

[@Lahiss]

The overall power level in the New World is much lower than in Ygdrassil. In Ygdrassil there were bosses that took dozens of lvl 100 players and their lvl 100 NPC minions to beat. In the New World every single Nazarick member is such boss to he residents.

[@robertsneddon731]

One giveaway that it wasn't Ainz himself in the battle was that "he" was only wearing eight rings. Pandora's Actor base form has three fingers and a thumb on each hand so he can only equip eight rings in total whereas Ainz always equips ten rings, assuming he's not wearing the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown outside Nazarick. The animators did this right in all scenes where I've been able to see.

[@saw31489]

So, I have a different theory for the time stop spell. It's possible that PDL is immune to it. I think that the time stop spell works a bit differently. In MMOs a time stop spell has a range in which all creatures are immobilized and their cooldowns and regenerations also stop while the spell is active. Since PDL is remote, time stop wouldn't work since he's outside of the range of the spell. Another theory i personally have is that the elemental hits didn't deal damage because there's nothing to really damage in the armor. There's many summons in different games that are invulnerable but have a limited time to be used. In this manner, I think PDL is in the same boat. The armor was constantly being drained of "HP" and when it used an ability it dropped by a decent percentage. That armor. In my theory, is near invulnerable and PDL himself is its weakness in addition to its limitation from an "HP pool". Not to say that PDL is weak, but that the armor doesn't really have a weakness to be exploited outside of beating it (which ainz can't do very well) and what we already gathered

[@slashersmasher4863]

I really like that edit at the beginning made Me chuckle at the second half haha 😄

[@Paul-ch4sr]

Im literally rooting for PDL hahaha. I hope they become friends with nazarick lol haha.

[@lilzeddy]

Nah hopefully death awaits

[@uberthawk]

Thank u 4 all the added information!!! Always looking forward 2 ur break downs! Keep it up!

[@diemise]

His design is so damn cool though

[@johnathonlee7053]

I didn’t even notice the red orb missing till it was pointed out. I thought something was off about his appearance the entire time and I guess that’s it. I also didn’t even know it was a world item, I don’t know if that was already explained in the anime but now I’m curious what it does.

[@hunnidisblack9337]

Me too! What does it do??

[@oddyru]

It only says this: The World Item Ainz possesses is very versatile, having many different powers to choose from and use. For example, one of these powers is very effective against Dragons.

[@Zikkar]

PA also talks with Ainz voice when he talks to himself. When Ainz does it you hear his human voice.

[@drgxiii]

I knew something was weird when Einz bowed. I was like He would never bow if only because he would want to his subordinates to see him like that. I also thought he was overall acting weird but I didn't figure it out before the reveal. Maybe because I was also making and eating subs during the episode.

[@hx615]

Thank you for the breakdown. Wait for days.

[@tombsreplays7724]

I wait for for these as soon as I’m done watching the episode

[@Tom-re6zo]

PDL might have wild magic, but Albedo has DD's. The outcome is a forgone conclusion.

[@depholade]

"They're not treating these people brutally" uhhhhhhhhh about that

[@rbasi25]

Dude I was waiting for you! Hahah. Love the vids

[@Bon_Appetit09]

I have been waiting for this episode to be adapted ever since I read the novel. Truly amazing, now I can't wait to see how the animate the destruction of the kingdom. Let's look forward to it.

[@oDawnMist]

Was hyped af for u to break down this episode

[@nickslays92]

Your opening are always the best.

[@TheBoundlessHeaven]

Pandora's Actor Full Powers + Full Acces To Nazarick's Treasures = RIP New World

[@misterkoneko2389]

The machiavellian scheming they're doing leave me flabbergasted.

[@JusticeforLiberty]

I really enjoyed this video and you remind me of Mac from It's always Sunny in Philadelphia before he started beefing up.

[@darleiferreira8341]

Funniest part of the ep was him saying how ainz may have 1 or 2 world class itens while he actually have 11 of the 20 that used to exist in the game

[@paradoxeffect1819]

Dude I've been totally waiting for this video since I saw the episode super 😊

[@oddjhi]

You just got yourself a new subscriber 👌🏾 well done

[@jeepeedurocher]

its hinted that riku is the leader of the 13 heroes and was also a hero who lost one of his player friends, thus denied ressurections. It's also suspected thad PDL is the one who killed him.

Hey I’m a big fan of your breakdowns. Just subscribed!

[@sajiamandera_4o132]

Ohh man.. the JJJ LAUGH GOT ME, it’s so perfect

[@lukascarbol6173]

I realised that its not ainz when he talk to himself in his head it was his normal voice but whenever ainz talks in his head its his real voice from earth.

[@Fauxkerykes]

Yeah , when PDL said that I laughed so hard. Thinking, "you have no idea"

[@magnusallmighty5000]

This is why I hate that whole cliche of "making the character appear weak" when there is litterally no enemy in this world stronger than him

[@-0SafEr_esPHIRitOs_sancTHus0-]

Did anyone noticed the Godzilla when aura, mare and cocytus marched towards the capital? If you ask me I noticed it. And the next episode is the destruction of the capital. Then the final episode would be the duel of ainz and climb in the royal throne.

[@honyopenyoko7933]

yup that’s one of aura’s familiars that the devs modeled after godzilla it’s lvl 86 i believe

[@centaurian2000]

Godzilla ™.

[@iloverice6784]

Just imagine Pandora's Actor with the combat system from genshin switching characters with their buffs, heals, etc.

[@johncarlsonmata2195]

This is just theory, but I have feeling that the last name "Aganeia" was a name to one of the Eight Greed Kings, and it is also explained the reason as to why Platinum Dragon Lord allows Ainz to call him that, because he was using the name of the killer of his kind. Or could it be the name of the 2nd player of the 13 Heroes which the leader later killed. PS: "Hey ZeronicKiba, could you pls make a new overlord explained video about the "Elf Country and the Elf King" as I have finish reading Volume 15 and 16."

[@777dulera777]

Great video. I also appreciate the heads up and timestamp on spoilers. Thank you.

Give Pandora actors an Emmy already

[@romulo1221]

Waiting this moment! Best reviewer.

[@YT_Mimi]

I was just waiting for this video to come out 😆

[@Jinxyoutoheaven]

The entire fight I was like: something is off with Ainz why is he talking, and acting like that. He looks different. Did he get a haircut? It wasn’t until the end at the reveal I was like ugh I should have noticed.

[@be6386]

By the way the reason why platinum dragon lord killed a player that was on his side was because that player asked to be killed because his class was or was similar to that of a berserker , and although he was weak , he later gain more power but killed his friends in his berserker stage accident and since there was no way they could resurrect his friend he asked to be killed since it broke him to kill a friend he deepely loved which is why platinum dragon lord felt a little bit of sadness when he mention these hands are stained in blood not by the evil players but a friend he made with a player but had to kill him because his friend pleaded to be killed for his action and because of that platinum dragon lord couldn’t get any more information on players , which is why in the translation of the anime the way he says npc is weird , I learn of this from evil eye in the volume where sebas rescues that human and the other novel where ainzs meets evil eye as momon
