[@sowiwiody3681]

Yeach during siege of Osowiec fortress in WW1 the Germans used gas and killed almost all Russian defenders. The 100 that remained had their faces scarred, red eyes, blood everywhere, cough out parts of their own lungs but still refused to die. With only a hundred of dead-looking soldiers (they were really close to death) they charged with bayonets on 7000 Germans. The Germans were so terrified that they fled without fighting back. Before they organized second attack, Russians had already taken everything, evacuated, and blown the fortress up. That's the spirit I deeply respect.

Take it form someone whos nation wasnt part of that conflict, you morons got yourselves into it and called it a "world war" dispite the fact that not even half of the world took part in it

[@jefthereaper]

Best moment in the LN is where the Lizardmen noticed that Shalltear's "clap" did in fact not un-summon the monsters, it killed them. The force of her hands clapping... Killed all those monsters and wiped them out completely. That's the level of power we are dealing with here.

[@leonel392]

Three of those monsters destroyed a demihuman settlement. And she murdered them with a clap. Moral less 1000

She used Priest skill "Turn Undead" it makes enemy undead FLEE from you unless you are MASSIVELY more powerful than then, which she is, so they just died instantly. Only few of Lizardman had enough knowladge to truly understand that Shalltear must be an godlike priestess, AND she only SERVES under Ainz. This few who got it lost any remnants of hope they had.

@@magearamil8626 Well, even if they didn't know that, it would be terrifying if someone destroy legendaries undeads with a clap

[@jefthereaper]

​@@magearamil8626 Can't remember reading that in the LN. All it stated was that she clapped her hands, and the shock-wave itself from that clap was enough to destroy them utterly. That was either pure raw physical strength, or a skill like "thunderclap". Its unlikely that it was Turn Undead. Higher Level Clerics can instantly destroy lower leveled undead with it instead of fending them off, much like Roberdyck did at the invasion of the Great Tomb. If Shalltear would have used that skill, she would have needed to use a holy icon to focus the power from (but likely she has a feat or extra power to allow her to cast Cleric spells without the need of a holy symbol) but also, you would have seen rays of light coming from the palm of her hand, rather then a shock wave from clapping. At least that's what I gathered from reading the LN. It only shows that moment from the point of vieuw from the Lizardmen, its never specifically mentioned how Shalltear destroyed those undead. Just that from their point of view, those strong and rare undead were wiped out without a trace in the blink of an eye, with just a casual clap of the hands.

At the moment in the lizardmen minds: ERROR 404.

[@MarcusDarkstar]

Can anyone let me know if my math is wrong? I estimated nearly 28,000 skeletons being used for stairs in this scene. I used the area of a triangle using 40 skeletons as a base and it being 70 skeletons tall. There seemed to be at least 20 skeletons for the width of the front of the staircase so I did 40x70x20= 56,000/2 to get the area or in this case total number of skeletons used. Cause in this math problem were using Nazerick Old Guarders as a unit of measurement. If my calculations are true then the Nazerick Old Guarders themselves are almost the same number as 3 Legions of the Bahmut Empire or close to a tenth of the number of forces the Kingdom uses in the Battle of Katze Plains. These numbers are far more than what was described in the light novel which was around 3,000.

[@Tat-sumi]

I checked your work. U pretty much got the whole numbers down right. Surprisingly, someone actually had the time and curiosity to find how many skeletons are used for the stairs XD.

[@MarcusDarkstar]

Thanks! I write overlord fanfiction and the number of old guarders got me curious. It looked to be larger number than 3,000 I expected it was just didnt know how much.

[@MarcusDarkstar]

Minions yes armies no. And all the skeletons depicted here are Nazerick Guard which in the light novel are described to be around level 30 (for the more numerous lower ranked ones they get stronger but fewer in number as the ranks progress. The silver armored ones being second strongest and the golden armored ones the elite ones). Honestly Its basically an issue with Scaling with Madhouse depicting this scene. They choose to upscale it for visual effect to make it seem more impressive visually. Its honestly one of the few diversions they made from the light novels that I can tell. Its honestly more skeletons in the staircase then we see originally marching in this same scene!

[@alderstifen7738]

That also means that the author did an oopsie. Ainz only called 3000 Nazarick Old Guarders with the Elder Guard and Master Guard, so it should have been 28k.

[@MarcusDarkstar]

Unsure where you got the other 25k skeletons. Cause the skeletons used for the Staircase is entirely made up of Nazerick Old Guarders. No Elder and Master Guards are apart of the staircase.

[@ZenithWest169]

So this is my favorite anime. I love anime where the main character is like stupidly overpowered. I've seen this anime over a dozen times (everytime I try looking up when the next season will be released, I end up watching it all over again). I'm currently reading the light novel. It's awesome how closely they made the anime from the source material and how well done they did. There are two instances I can think of that stand out the anime did better. The use of the phrase "Royal Precession" to describe this scene and later own the anime shows Ainx try to think a proverb. The light novel says, "while thinking of a proverb, Ainz accidentally says aloud, 'ten thousand years'"... But in the anime they actually have him cite the actual proverb (which the light novel doesn't even mention)... Ainz: "(How did they proverb go, cranes live for a thousand years, and turtles live for) ten thousand years"

Is there a Batman reference lol

[@PetersaberHD]

I absolutely love how half of this grand show is completly obscured from view by the huge boulder. Lizards physically can't see the staircase and the procession.

[@javed.minhazxin9sebastian737]

Lizardmen true ability- see past a giant block of stone when there is a overlord Royal Procession!

[@Ugh-Fudge_Bwana]

Compared to what happened to the Empire and the Kingdom, the Lizardmen tribes really got the royal treatment.

[@bonniefazman9065]

This is the equivalent of the best meal they will ever eat in their lives, just simply poisoned. When Ainz' other enemies arrive in the afterlife, the lizard men will be laughing their tails off.

[@reemcont]

It would be the grandest entrance if he did that to the humans kingdoms instead of those lizards village, lol

[@lunerblade13]

unlike the humans the lizardmen fought with enough honor to earn the respect of a floor guardian to be worth putting an effort. all the humans get is a massacre.

[@realdragon]

Unlike humans the lizardmen won the battle

this video was the reason i watched overlord. i knew of it long before but never got hooked, until i saw this procession. now, i find myself reading the light novel while recommending it to friends. this anime (and its source) are one of my favourites.

[@kin4386]

When you have nearly all the pieces in place, you know what completes your position as a villain? An overly dramatic/threatening/unnecessary entrance.

Still. ALL HAIL LELOUCH!

[@hazydoom69]

Can I point out that while having an army of skeletons to become your stairs is quite the show of force it is lessened by the fact that the lizardmen can't see it.

[@lamaoma]

They have a scouts

This scene was perfectly written in LN, you could feel the despair of the lizardmen.

The ACCURACY in Gargantua’s throw though

He used all his skill points on accuracy and strength

[@videopolice432]

This is a level of "flexing your power muscles" that cannot be achieved by any mortal.

[@leonfrancis3418]

That's great and all, but all I think about when I see clips of this anime and the lizard people is Ainz watching the dark one screw the bunny skinned one.

[@realdragon]

Ainz pulled out army capable of destroying whole continent just to show off to 200 lizardmen

[@Dr_Holiday]

I can't wait to see if there's going to be another badass entrance like this with the humans.

I think the Re Estize Massacre was a good scare to humans XD

Yes. If ever I become an elder Lich overlord, I'll do this whenever I arrive somewhere, even if just to go to the shops.

This flex give me goosebumps. I love it. He knew how to make an entrance.

[@QueenMyraSaber]

Ainz Oal Gown has never known defeat!

[@shadowproductions969]

the guild hasn't, but Momonga did get defeated until TouchMe saved him, early on (which was depicted in the anime, probably in more detail in the LN). In the new world, it's essentially a New Game Plus for Momonga, starting over with max level and weapons.

[@mrCetus]

Best moment in the LN is where the Lizardmen noticed that Shalltear's "clap" did in fact not un-summon the monsters, it killed them. The force of her hands clapping... Killed all those monsters and wiped them out completely. That's the level of power we are dealing with here.

I mean... I'm pretty sure the lizard people couldn't have seen the royal precession from the other side of the giant rock cube... For them there was just a lot clattering and then some people on top.

A Mythical Armor of the Undead that is only told in Stories, now in physical form in front of them. I can only imagine the Fear they must have felt, though I praise their Courage to Face them! Even if it was for naught...
