| And...this is how Ainz is so intimidating when he's capable of bringing the morale down from an entire army. However, it seems not everyone is intimidated by him and looks like there's a plan to take Ainz down. Jircniv's reactions were gold this episode. A man like him may have an ambition but taking down Ainz is a lot easier said than done. |
 |
| Can't wait for Lord Philip... We can relieve stress by kissing? Okayyy Albedo that was a good news. In other words, if you are kissed, you will not get sick. Yeah, It was a good opening, I liked Albedo and Ainz's moment. beat Ainz-sama? Somehow this episode is not so interesting, unlike the previous episode. Just a talking about the emperor, this is quite boring. Moemoekyun |
| Of all the things that Albedo could ask of Ainz, a kiss is the most appropriate LOLS, of course. It's back to Talk no Jutsu of how the Temple (with the Slane Theocracy) should take action against Ainz, and how every action taken only backfires, as such with the degradation of the Re-Estize Kingdom to ultimately fall under Ainz's rule. Yet, after all this while, they forget that the Sorcerer King and Momon are basically the same person, much less prominent figures slowly falling one by one. The Bararuth Empire with Emperor Jircniv lambasting at how every of his plans to take down Ainz have been nothing but failures, any future plans going forward will have to be treated with strict scrutiny, much less his desperation to finally get rid of Ainz and his tyranny rule. And his reactions...damn they're gold at how he felt the embarrassment of even thinking to fight against Ainz, any sort of legislation would help them at this point, anything will do. The Silver Thread Bird of adamantite adventurers serving as Jircniv's protection after all but his loyal aides (e.g. Fluder) have defected to the Sorcerer Kingdom, he needs every necessity to protect his wellbeing...except that Ainz successfully infiltrating the match to see the wretched look on Jircniv's face, he's the mouse that ate the bait, intentional or not. The shred on Jircniv, how I missed that. |

| GAMBAAAREEEEEEEEEEE! :D:D:D |
| Great episode, the Emperor looks hilarious freaking out every scene. lmao We finally get to see the higher-ups of theocracy and those two... o.o |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| This episode highlights one of my favorite aspects of Overlord: Just seeing how the different leaders, kingdoms, and parties of influence having to deal with some all powerful being and his followers messing up all their plans. I feel sorta bad for Jircniv at the end. The dude is practically crying and hoping for the warrior king to put up a good fight, but deep down knows he's about to get smoked. |
| Albedo with the biggest ever W, poor her though even she couldn't believe what just transpired lol. Now can't wait for that proper smooch( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Jircniv is back lol and he's still as terrified as ever, nevermind the presence just the mere mention of Ainz making him insane. And I believe there's no helping him out for the time being. |
 |
| this episode is boring !! the only good from this episode is ainz kissed albedo !! |
| I really like this adaptation so far. It's skipping a lot of a boring details while still covering the main plot points. |

| Poor Jircniv cant catch a break. Soon he will be bald. Maybe thats his plan, turn into Saitama. The cape is already there. Ainz acting like a parent seeing off his daughter to school. I expected Momon to show up not Ainz as the Sorcerer King. Ganbare Warrior King. Albedos entourage seems funny in hindsight since I fully expect Ainz to just teleport there alone, maybe with a maid and a token guardian. |

| Welp, can't wait for the next episode. I wanna see how tough this Warrior King is in front of Ainz Ooal Gown. |
| Go check out my latest review: https://myanimelist.net/profile/YeeYeeAss/reviews |
| Albedo got a kiss from Ains, Shaltear would be salty if she knew. What a coincedence for Ains to be there, truly what a coincedence. |
 |
| Just a friendly visit... ^^ |
| The beginning was cute as fuck. Give me more of Zesshi Zetsumei please!!! |
Was it really though? |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| A bit too much dialogue in the first half imo but overall still a pretty enjoyable episode |
| Damn, I love how Ainz Ooal Gown suddenly appeared to make the panic even worse for the Empire xD. He’s lost a fair bit of hair but one might assume that it’ll be nothing compared to a few moments later when the strongest knight gets beaten instantly… Anyways, I loved seeing some of the reactions he had throughout the episode. Definitely not an easy task to try and beat our main character, and I totally feel for him in all honesty. Looks like another group of party are looking for a way to disrupt things between the 4 monsters. Well, have I got news for you… Albedo and Momonga’s little flirty scenes at the start, that was just too good lol. She literally broke down in tears over a peck in the cheek, just how innocent is she in front of her beloved. |

| Albedo gets her kiss, which was fun to say the least... and the Empire and the Slane Theocracy continue to underestimate Ainz, and it's always funny when they don't know how utterly powerless they are against him, to think that Momon could help them... Poor Jircniv, he can only hope the warrior king can save him now. |
| This season is blowing my expectations away every week. This episode especially was so good it felt like I have finished a whole ass anime when it ended |
 |
| The funniest episode ever |
 |
| Today's episode was great! I expected either Ainz or Momon to appear as the opponent as everyone did and he's way smarter than he gives himself credit for, seeing as he set all this up. |

| Holy shit.. THIS IS WHAT IT SHOULD FEEL LIKE WATCHING OVERLORD! Pure fucking goosebumps throughout my whole body, the intimidating Ainz appearing out of nowhere fucking both sides and even fighting the strongest warrior of the Empire. Seems like it'll be some action in the next episode which makes me happy. Also, Albedo got the biggest W with a mf kiss. Never expected him to do that but seems like we're up for a lot more than just that. Anyway, next episode will be fire. |

| This episode somehow made me smile, maybe because the emperor was suffering. The old farts' discussions about ainz made me interested in the future story of this series. The next episode seems like Ainz's battle against the emperor's hopeful knight. Solid 5/5 |

| Jircniv’s VA did exceptionally good job here. He fully portrayed Jircniv’s desperation especially when he wholeheartedly cheered on the Warrior King. Ainz sudden appearance is also a treat to see. Exhilarating moment. |
| this ep was really interesting. albedo was cute (as always). |
| a lot higher production values then the last season that for fking sure.. That Kiss scene tho.. God i love Albedo! Will not lie.. but I really like the knock off Gilgamesh.. and am really interested where the story takes him next.. I really hope he doesn't dies.. |
| I LOVE the pacing of this season. They’re doing a really good job of not rushing all the political intrigue of this volume. The best part of overlord really. Loved how the emperor nearly shit himself when Ainz showed up at the coliseum lol. That feeling of hopelessness that he has really translated well in this adaptation. |
 |
| wow ... did they really skip that much? I hope they will deal with it in the next episode. I like this Ainz combat outfit a lot, even though it is junk compared to standard equipment. |
 |
| Wow they skipped a lot but I guess they'll do a cut back next episode considering they showed the part they skipped in the intro so I guess we'll have to see. I'm glad they're not rushing the politics just to get to the fights becuase it's such an important part, especially for Overlord and it normally just gets cut. Next episode will probably be half the meeting with the arena master and then the other half will probably be the fight with the Go Gin. A very nice episode, probably the best this season overall and I'm looking forward to the next one! |

| This episode was surely dense, a lot of information to take in that they even skipped the opening again, which showcases commitment from Madhouse, the animation and art felt so crisp and clean this episode, especially at Albedo part, they're really pulling out all the stops with this. Loved Jircniv in this episode, I'm really starting to appreciate him after his character exploration in this episode, I hope he sorts his stuff out, even a charismatic cocky king like him can break down if you push them hard enough. The VA nailed his humanity. Can't blame the guy, Ainz's power is terrifying. The political wrangling is fascinating as always as expected of Overlord, loved the slaine theocracy part. If this quality keeps up, I'm confident this will become my favorite season in no time, simply phenomenal. |
