Overlord Season 4 Episode 8 Reaction | THE UNEXPECTED PLAN!!!

[@acabcor]

Hello friend, ¿how are you doing? As I mentioned before, this chapter actually takes place two years later, after the events of what will be the movie, so I'll have to be very careful not to spoil. The Holy Oak Kingdom had a terrible crisis related to Jaldabaoth and at that time they were desperately seeking help. But since the Re-Estize Kingdom was still suffering from the last battle against Ainz and was starting to have food problems from all the men who died and couldn't till the fields, Zanac decided that they couldn't help them and didn't even meet those emissaries. Therefore, with no other choice, the Holy Oak Kingdom asks the undead king Ainz Own Goal for help and thanks to this he manages to survive. Now the Holy Oak Kingdom has formed an Alliance with Nazarick and is slowly recovering. Zanac then tries to forge relationships with them to build a united front of humanity, but this time it's the Holy Oak Kingdom that doesn't want to talk to those who didn't help them. The situation is worse because the Re-Estize Kingdom is suffering from food shortages. Instead, thanks to their alliance, the Holy Oak Kingdom receives daily carts of food sent from Nazarick, which pass directly through the kingdom's roads. Nazarick has plenty of food because it has fields worked by undead who never tire. So now the Re-Estize Kingdom is like a starving beggar who sees a food cart go by every day that he can't eat. Then we go back to idiot Phillip. When we left him two years ago, he was very happy with the Sorcerous Kingdom, but things have changed. He has finally realized that in his faction of incompetent nobles he really has no more power than Hilma. Also, none of his ideas to improve his territory have improved and as always (it's a reflection of him conditioning him) Phillip assumes that it's everyone else's fault but him. So, when a couple of nobles, who are only slightly less stupid, tell him about the Sorcerous Kingdom wagons full of grain on their way to the Holy Oak Kingdom... he decides to steal them. The worst mistake ever made. To achieve this, Phillip recruits a very poor group of his farmers armed with sticks and he puts them together with those brought by the two nobles. Meanwhile, the grain wagons are escorted by groups of mercenaries working for the 8 Fingers, more than enough to fend off Phillip's rabble, but the leader recognizes Phillip because the fool hadn't even closed his helmet visor. For this reason, the leader is scared, because he knows that Phillip is the "puppet" of Hilma, who is one of his employers. Killing Phillip could ruin the plans of the 8 Fingers, so the leader decides to give him the cart with wheat and escapes to report and ask for instructions. Phillip is very happy about this and imagines himself as a great general who has defeated the Sorcerous Kingdom. So, in his madness, he rips the flag of Ainz Own Goal from his chariot and stomps on it in a humiliating manner. All this is seen by Nazarick's spies, who immediately report it. “A noble from the Re-Estize Kingdom dared to raid a diplomatic convoy with humanitarian aid for the Holy Oak Kingdom and trampled the Flag of the Sorcerous Kingdom!” That is the message that Renner and Zanac read and that surprised them so much, because no one could imagine that someone could be so stupid as to gift such an obvious Casus Belli to the Sorcerous Kingdom. And one would think that in Nazarick they would celebrate having such a good excuse for war, but it is not so. Because Phillip's stupidity has been so great, that neither Albedo nor Demiurge can believe it's true and assume that it is a conspiracy from another country or an unknown enemy to cause war for reasons they cannot understand. The confusion is so great, that the NPCs decide to resort to the wisdom of Ainz, who for once is correct in assuming that perhaps Phillip was simply stupid enough to do it. This unleashes a lot of emotions among the guardians. But the most disturbed by this is Albedo, because she was the one who approved this plan and the one who approved the stupid noble that they would use as a puppet. Now Demiurge's carefully calculated strategy, which involved provoking a civil war is ruined, so we see her trying to accuse Hilma and punish her, it's an unconscious gesture by Albedo to ease her own humiliation. I don't have to tell you that if before Albedo planned to make Phillip suffer for touching her before, now he has earned all of her wrath. It has made it very personal. What I'll pause to tell you is that Shalltear has been given authority over the Frost Dragons and is using them to create an air transportation service for the Sorcerous Kingdom. That's why we see Hejinmal flying with a backpack for a second. Anyway, back at the meeting, Ainz forgives Hilma because the way Albedo berates her reminds him of his experiences in the company and unknowingly sparks a fanatical adoration from her. He then makes a careless comment and inadvertently causes the NPCs to go into "Final Solution" mode and decide to escalate Demiurge's plan for the Kingdom, but applied to the entire world. The idea is that if a country joins Nazarick everything will be fine, but if it defies it in the slightest... When the declaration of war arrives, we see that Demiurge has started the battle on the diplomatic field, because he not only sent a copy of the document to the Holy Oak Kingdom, the Dwarf Kingdom and the Baharut Empire, which are his allies, but also to the known country such as Argland Council State and the Draconic Kingdom, with whom they have common borders and could have been convinced to send aid to the Re-Estize Kingdom, but by putting their seals on the document they are acknowledging that the Nazarick war is a "Rightful War "and they can no longer intervene militarily. In the Declaration of War also appears the seal of someone known as "Faceless Preacher" who is the leader of a cult or group that is becoming powerful in the Holy Oak Kingdom, to the point of displacing the original religion of the people. This character will be important in the movie to come. Zanac thinks throughout the meeting that his father is already becoming incapable and that he cannot see reality, but when he sees him offer his head like that, he suffers a terrible shock and realizes that he is not as good a king as his father. The prince wanted to sacrifice a nobleman without fair trial to save the kingdom, but his father by sacrificing himself offers an apologetic gesture to Nazarick that is impossible to underestimate and at the same time preserves the honor and justice of his nation, just as a true king would do. (I confess that part really touched me) Well friend, that's all for now. I hope you have found the information interesting and also that you have understood some things that perhaps did not seem to make sense. That Phillip is amazing! He managed to surprise Renner, Albedo, Demiurge and Hilma with his stupidity! Nobody imagined that someone would be that stupid! But that's the great thing about Overlord, when he introduces us to so many interesting character types in one story that one I couldn't stop following. So far there are 16 books but two more should come out next year. But I always keep hope that the author decides to continue more. And as always, I recommend the Overlord Lore videos on AniNews. See ya!

Hey my friend, I'm doing SUPER good. And your comments are always extremely informative!!! Thanks so much 😃😃🤜🏿🤛🏿

[@acabcor]

@@DarkSnakeReacts Thanks to you friend, greetings from Peru

[@hhound4283]

The other leaders of the Eight Fingers thought Hilma had been taken back to the roach room for punishment that's why they were offering things to cleanse her mouth. One idiot can destroy an entire Kingdom, good work Philip.

[@jaredhipfnner1262]

Ya as you saw throughout the episode it get saying supplies were stolen from the Slane Theocracy and that was a key part of their problem this episode but it's NOT suppose to say Slane Theocracy it's suppose to read "Holy Kingdom" idk how they could make such a mistake cuz it confused everyone who weren't novel readers. So please keep that in mind it's Holy Kingdom not Slane Theocracy.

[@PogMcDog]

This comment is important ^Holy Kingdom is the place the movie is about. They are producing and providing extra food to the holy kingdom after what happens in the movie essentially.

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

I guess they wanted to see if persons were paying attention 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@MaliciousMollusc]

Say what you will about the the Baharuth Kingdom, but at least Jircniv had his people in order. I'm not sure if anyone pointed it out yet, but the reason Hilma is so traumatised is because she was tortured by the Roach King from S2. She was turned into a meat factory where roaches would pour into her mouth and eat her from the inside, healed and eaten again. She was traumatised and couldn't eat any solids, leading to her losing a lot of weight. That's why they asked if she needed some wine to wash her mouth. It's the only thing she could take without throwing up.

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

Yeah, I got info about Hilma. Some traumatizing shit she had to go through 😨

[@rimurutempest8893]

there is like mistranslation there, it should be Roble Holy Kingdom not The Theocracy and between episode 7 to 8 there is 2 volume skipped for the movie that coming out soon 👍

[@Anthyrion]

If i remember correctly, this season skipped a lot of novel knowledge that could've been useful for the audience

@@Anthyrion doesnt matter, it just like many others anime anyway , skipped alot of things

[@Anthyrion]

@@rimurutempest8893 I wonder if the producers could've included the material, if they had more episodes. I only know, that they skipped a lot of material, from KZbinrs, who make videos about the lore and the story of the novels

@@Anthyrion for sure they can if they got more episode

[@jaredhipfnner1262]

I hate that they made that translation error calling it the Theocracy instead of Holy Kingdom cuz there's no way in hell would Ainz help those people XD every anime only watcher were confused to say the least

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

Yeah, that's troublesome

[@NickyTannock]

I wonder why the translators began mixing up the Holy Kingdom with the Theocracy. Anyway, the nobles are ridiculous, especially Philip. It's a good thing Lord Ainz can predict the actions of a fool.

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

Philip thinking he can make a nation under Ainz fall to its knees 😂🤣

[@LunafreyaPGR]

Well played, sasuga PHILIP SAMA!!! 🤣 Because of him SK (Sorcery Kingdom) have reason to Demolish Re - Estize Kingdom.

Philip the Jackass

king is a fool, protecting a fool culprit

[@sagi3933]

Ainz just going with the flow will eventually lead to either world peace or world destruction, damn...

Either way, all of the humans problems would go away 😈

Hi

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

Hola senor!!

[@pooftube7763]

@DarkSnakeReacts you should give these new animes a break and have a go for some of the oldies, i suggest you give us a reaction and thoughts about the original Ghost in the shell 1 and the Ghost in the shell 2 innocence anime movies from the early 2000s

[@DarkSnakeReacts]

I honestly don't wanna sound like a money grub, I have a massive list of anime movies both old and new. And I know a lot of people give recommendations so they can get persons to dive into these anime and not necessarily for the reactions. Anyone can join my "Horned Viper" tier and get the video they want to be shown here guaranteed. Not that I'm telling you to do it. It's gonna take a while to clear out the anime list. Have a blessed day my friend and I appreciate your recommendation 🤜🏿🤛🏿
