About him being calm, the green glowing that appears is suppresses his emotions and excitement so basicly whenever he is excited about something he goes like, "okay whatever"

[@Aleas10301]

Yeah and that light is the manifestation of the status effect immunity of the undead race.

[@ZerothAwakening]

For those who are wandering why ains grabbed albedo chest is to get himself kick from the server due to performing 18+ action

[@accywacky2699]

Moreover, it was basically full Law in his original world that unless the game itself was 18+ approved, marketed as such And filtered out minors and the like completely and had safeguards against anyone trying to grope other players or npcs in a non-consensual context? The game-company of the game in question would be in serious trouble. Thus it would be completely impossible for the company that made Yggdrasil, the online game, to include 18+ functionality in a new game update/release, even for some kind of crazy surprise preview of whatever their next game is gonna be or something wild like that. Ergo by doing this Ainz eliminated any chance that he was still in a virtual game as a possibility.

[@Aleas10301]

Gu Changge ahh pfp

[@inazawakoreto]

that explains better, thanks

[@nonofirerose]

Also just so you know: He didn't get sucked into the MMO, he got sucked into a parallel world like the game

[@diostaku2]

To be fair, the first episode does not make the situation clear at all, it is during the second episode that this is mentioned.

[@nonofirerose]

@@diostaku2 oh yea, I know. The books expound on it a bit better too. But so many people just glaze over the fact in episode two from reaction ccs I've watched

[@sweetpotato8289]

i thought they were in the gane till season 2 and i got to LN after anime so..its pretty understandable

[@skysaber23]

Bro I'm so happy that you reacted to Overlord!! You're the 🐐🐐🐐!!

[@franespejo5302]

It is explained in the novels, but not in the anime, so I think I can tell you this without it being spoilers. The future where MC comes from is mostly a dystopic one; with wars being fought for the few resources that are left, contamination so high that the sky is not visible anymore, etc. In this future, people are overworked so hard by companies that it is pretty common to find people dead from exhaustion in public transports. If I remember correctly, they connect to the game by laying down inside special capsules, but these capsules are expensive to buy and maintain, so many of the people in the guild Ainz Ooal Gown left the game permanently because they had to sold their capsules to raise money to survive.

[@TearDownGenesis]

Are you sure? I thought it was just a normal world and people in the guild just moved on in life. I thought they mentioned he was a bit of a salaryman type. Honestly, the backstory you mention (which I have seen referenced a bit online, but only slightly) just doesn't fit at all. The game has a cash shop, etc. It seems like just placing it in a normal world would be much more fitting.

[@ashess07]

You are wrong about the capsules. It was basically a nueralink VR type thing. They even showed it as an extra scene in the recap movie at the start

[@diostaku2]

@@TearDownGenesis Nope, it's a dystopian world. The LN is very explicit about this.

1:13 when Japanese, Chinese and Korean players all love a game, and it's an MMO, you know that game isn't fun without whaling.

[@Anthyrion]

The "melting" guy from the beginning was a Slime. In the game, you choose your Race, then your class. And Herohero was the Tank of the Guild. You add some further Job classes, race classes and Talents from your specialisation to your character and play it up to the maximum level of 100. Of course, your character also can die in the game and if that happens, your character loses 5 Level. Sometimes, it's annoying and sometimes a nice method of reskilling

[@jhonmark3500]

this is what i"ve been waiting for

[@L.a.m.e.n.t.e.r.s]

I will be once the season 1 is done on patreon. I plan on doing a big video with the full season on KZbin

[@Absurdated]

I find a lot of parallels between this and Log Horizon: both are about a MMORPG guild that essentially disbanded, one of its members finding themselves in the "video game" world and they get half-dragged into significantly changing it. But there are also so many differences - "game overlays" get used in LH to a great effect, as both Chekhov guns and a source of emotional impact; both protagonists are externally calm but for _very_ different reasons, etc.

[@roxoiva]

Wild suggestion, can you do 3 episode per video, love this anime and your videos!

[@OlegTsvetkoff]

They don’t say this in the anime, but in the future the world is taken over by megacorporations, and the climate is so bad that people go outside completely covering themselves with clothes and wearing a mask, because due to toxic production in their world, acid rain is constantly falling, and the sky and stars people see only on the Internet or in textbooks. The game was closed because megacorporations were afraid that due to complete immersion in the game world, people would learn fencing, combat and shooting, which would lead to a riot. Although it seems that the MC has entered the game, he has actually entered another world. Presumably someone from the New World was trying to summon world items. Items were sucked into the New World along with the players who owned them.

[@hhound4283]

An 18+ action should have caused him to be kicked from the game, this confirmed he wasn't in Yggdrasil any more. They later made a movie out of the first season with some added footage that shows our mc getting in a reclining chair placing a VR type headset on and more importantly inserting a cable into a port centered on his neck over the spine, so no keyboard anymore.

Is nice you started react this anime. One tip, when he touched Albedo was to check if the gms snd administrators was there means that he was in the game. In the game there is a function that is any players do things like what ains did with Albedos chest or even more sexiest things .t.c their would be banned from the game and if i remember right was permanently

[@Haru_no_ki]

Momonga has a skill that nullifies his emotions when they become too strong. That’s when you hear that sound and when he glows. Regarding solo leveling, your wish will become true

[@justanoman6497]

As far as game to isekai goes, from the most "game" to the least. Some say Sword Art Online is an isekai, but it isn't in the truest sense, although for players involved it might as well be. Then there is Log Horizon, which is, afaik, full on isekai but all the game function/interface still exist. Recently we have land of Leadale, where the game stuff is more faded, being in the future of the game world, alone. I forgot if any interface still exist in that. The even more recent New Gate is an "combo" of SAO and Leadale, with SAO being the background setting but eventually go the way of Leadale After that is this Overlord, which the MC carries a bunch of stuff and NPC from the game into an actual different world. No interface etc, but all the game stuff and skill he brought still works. Finally we have ones like skeleton knight in another world where the MC is only transported as a lone character, with only their skill and personal items. This branches into those where you have the game interface and those that you don't. There is also a side branch where you are reborn as a game character, most commonly seen in the villainess genre, which is not quite the same thematically as the rest, it's usually not power fantasy but rom com. Some of the category have many alternative, others not so much. The most common is probably the solo transfer power fantasy, with faction transfer like Overlord being, to the best of my knowledge, rare.

[@ssjwes572]

4:30 I've ran a few guilds over the years in MMO's that died out. It really is painful when you put real time and effort into things. For people that just "played" these games the people that played the game while managing groups of people and setting goals for said groups, losing all that effort and time spent can really hit you in the gut. If you just played an MMO but never spent any time leading large groups of people in said games, you might not understand or have the same feeling of loss when a game shut down.

Casting spells when he was still in game still required to click on interfaces. But now that its gone, he has to adapt to estimate how much mana he currently have. He cant see the health and mana bar anymore but he can feel it. There are spells to view them but its more of an aura looking than actual bars. All his skills and spells are also automatically memorized on his mind once he got isekaid. The training dummy was him trying to test and adjust how to utilize his spells again in this new but realistic way.

[@armandostoltzfus2162]

All of their cosmetics is actually armour with powerful stats

[@TearDownGenesis]

The way levels work in the game is: You have a total level, max 100, but actual jobs / classes add to the total, so Momonga is level 100 but is level 15 skeleton mage, level 10 Lich, level 5 Overlord, etc. Non-human races, like him, get racial levels in addition to "Job Levels" humans only get Job levels as options. Honestly, the game itself seems like it was crazy broken, like a pay to win type system. Some Jobs were massively limited, like only 1 person in the game had one because he won a tournament event. So while many people could have Skeleton Mage as a Racial class, Overlord is super rare, due to w/e the requirements were. The game also has alignments, I'm not sure how those work exactly. I feel like this plays into Momonga's behavior, as he feels a bit distant, it may be an impact of his character settings on his persona, as there seems to be some influence on him, i.e. the glowing if he got too excited, even though he isn't in the virtual world version anymore.

[@TearDownGenesis]

Also, it seems like all the guardians are level 100 as well but Momonga is crazy powerful beyond them which leads me to think that equipment is a key aspect of the game, lending to the Pay 2 Win side of it all.
