This guy, you sir, deserve a thousand round of applauses if you truly have figured it out about Tsuare! LN readers, give this guy a pat on the back~! He figured it out just by the anime alone which is really hard for the average attention span of anime-only watchers!!! Wait what did he figure out?! no level 100 class is just as strong as the other. It depends on what you put those 100 levels into and how those traits fare up against your opponent. Take Sebastian's profile for example |

| Yasuno Kiyono's voice moe but can somebody tell the director that using Katou's voice won't win support for Renner? It's a totally different character in a totally different setting. Thankfully Sebas is here to save this anime. |
So you want just another boring run of the mill fantasy hero story then. |
Darklight0303Feb 21, 2018 12:25 PM
Well, it's true. But how is that relevant to my comment? |
It's relevant in that Overlord is not a fantasy hero story and Sebas behavior is not the norm nor is it a savior of any kind. |

Sorry, I should've stated the reason why Sebas made me decide not to drop this anime after 5 episodes of random lizards and 2 episodes of more build-up and (not enough) foreshadowing: Sebas's pickup lines. My patience is running low. A mate of mine said that vol 4 is one of the best vols of Overlord. But 2 episodes in and I'm bored. Sebas's pickup lines manages to save me from dropping this anime. Can I say that he saves this anime for me? |

A story where they world itself is just as relevant as the MC causing waves with every action he makes on screen >_> You won't be seeing Sebas again for a long time after this arc. If you can't appreciate world building and a different twist in terms of protagonist, then you're better off elsewhere. |

Sounds to me you're assuming that because I love fantasy, I can't enjoy anime with heavy world-building, characterization, and plot. Don't lecture me on what kind of story is Overlord. I also watched S1 week in week out, read a lot of what you fans said about it. I knew what is to expect when I started watching S2. Didn't I say that there's not enough foreshadowing? Can't I, as a watcher, ask for more of the plot? |
| Lakyus so fine during the meeting <3 Loved Ainz's reaction to the news haha. Looking forward to see Sebas kick some ass soon hopefully! |
 |
| Another super rushed episode, honestly the only good thing in this garbage show is ending. |
| This show is just bogged down with characters no one gives a shit about. After last season proving that everyone besides the Ains group is worthless and will probably die, I have an incredibly hard time giving an iota of care to anything we saw this week. Solution is a bitch but damn she's fine. The new girl is cute, hopefully she'll be ok but inb4 she's killed. So the princess is a genius and was the one who hired the Blue Rose. But since this is Overlord, if she's not beheaded, raped, or otherwise obliterated I'll be floored. Same goes with the girl that Sebas helped. Speaking of which, he's still awesome. Hoping Momonga doesn't take the bait. |
Sebas <3 I didn't read the LN, but i feel like this Arc is really fast-paced (No background on some of the new characters so far, really hard to tell what's going on) |

Hoping Momonga doesn't take the bait. What bait? Sebas Tian's orders were to infiltrate the capital. Pretend to blend and not draw any unneeded attention while investigating the New World's magic and keeping an eye out for the one who controled Shaltear. Sebas Tian's bleeding heart has put all of that in serious jeopardy. Not only that but he has REPEATEDLY refused to inform Ainz of what he's done. Because he knows he can't really justify it to the man. He knows Tuare has no real worth to Nazarick. For someone who unequivocably obeys the supreme one to the LETTER, what he is doing can EASILY and understandably be interpreted as TREASON. Solution is more than in the right to report her conclusion to Ainz |

Yeah because half the season was about lizard folks that are complete irrelevant right now. They even gave almost half this episode to the blonde dude fighting like a chick in that sword fight instead focusing in sebas (who is far more by miles interesting). There's something called a bad anime adaptation too. Google it. Cya They are relevant for later arcs. So try harder. You will only succeed in proving your ignorance. I will agree on the wasted time on Climb but sadly that was the same in the novel if not even worse given the screentime he got. |
Souzo_ said: I really like this series, but I'm going to stop watching it weekly. I'll wait for it to be completed and binge it in a weekend. I have a feeling I will enjoy it as a whole much more in that format. That's probably a wise decision. Good on ya |
| DID I JUST HEAR YASUNO KIYONO'S VOICE?? ARGASKDWAJGADDAKSDKDAKSDDK Ahem....okay sorry for that, I'm a little bit calm now. I like the episode, Ains's reaction to Sebas possible betrayal was priceless lol. Solution is beautiful as ever, can't wait to see what will Sebas do. 4/5 |

[...]but I thought they were all level 100 so they must be equal in strength? That's difficult to determine exactly in an RPG, especially one with multiple possible classes and various ways to min-max gears and abilities. One class may hold a general advantage over another but fail in front of a third. One class may favor one-on-one, the other stronger when there are multiple enemies etc. Zip_Zip said: tommy9418 said: Heyyy~~!!!

| A very dull episode, more politics between kingdoms I don't recall, more screen time for characters who are a friend of and a friend of an enemy of an acquaintance of a nobles sisters friend etc. and more Sebas acting in a way that doesn't befit Ains Ooul Gown. At least Solution is good and we got a few seconds of Momon. |

I will agree on the wasted time on Climb but sadly that was the same in the novel if not even worse given the screentime he got. Here's the thing: Most anime watchers didn't even read the LN, you have 13 episodes to showoff. Already covered almost full lizards arc. About the plot developtment: I don't know where is this going because this season is supossed to cover 3 volumes in just 13 episodes. The problem is that if they are going to keep this pace they will most likely rush like fuck last episodes, and fuck up the season. Anime watchers don't care that much for LN, specially outside japan, its hard to find it translated, if it even exists to the last volumes. They've already made this chapter just average-watchable by cutting some sebas moments. As far as I know the whole reason there's a second season of Overlord is because of the efforts of LN readers. They said this season is just a fan service for the readers so they don't give a shit about those who didn't read novels. If you're an anime watcher well that's too bad. |

KAMIANIME1 said: I actually didn't like it, it was kind of silly this is not overlord we all know it's just trash and who like me noticed that the art changed the quality became lower anyway there are still 6 eps I hope it'll get better No this is very much overlord. You do not speak for those who have been with the series since BEFORE it was even an anime. You are the ones who never really understood what Overlord was really about. |
| It always fascinates me when people call the Overlord LNs' world-building as amazing, given that the author has a tendency to not establish things beforehand, pull things out of thin air when he's stuck, and generally disobey almost every single world-building lecture Brandon Sanderson has given and posted on YouTube. @BroxSaurfang I too want a Warcraft anime. For Lordaeron! Horde scum! |

If they rush last episodes all this plot development will go to waste and it will be trash unless they make season 3 and dont rush 2nd season. All this lizard thing and that blond guy are part of the plot. They kinda introducing us to the characters so later on we dont question "who dafuq are they" Also Ainz isn't the main "goal" for anime....they introducing us to the characters and telling us story of other people that will probably in 3rd season (if it comes out) will actually contribute to the world domination in good or bad way... |

For Lordaeron! Horde scum! Yep, there are still so many things we don't know about the world and I have a feeling even author didn't consider so much about the world at first and makes up things midway. We got a bunch of countries and legends but that's about it. There's not much detail even if there are 12 volumes as far as I know. Though we may complain about it, still it's not easy to do a good world-building so I can live with that. Still amazing series imo. By the way: Alliance filth! |

For Lordaeron! Horde scum! Even if the stuff done by the Overlord author is not the best, it's still one of the greater isekai fantasy series out there. The fact that the focus is not only on the OP MC, the female harem around him, the fanservice or all the stupid shippings but also in other characters, their pov regarding Nazarick and all the medieval fantasy lore within Overlord's universe is what makes it so interesting to watch. I believe most guys here do not even like this genre to begin with since these days, in anime, fantasy is synonym of cute neko lolis and action. Which is sad! That's what i feel when i see people crying about medieval politics with kings and princesses in a fucking fantasy series..lol |
| Goddamnit, those episodes are way too short T_T |
| The amount of blonde girls in this episode is overwhelmingly impressive! Climb and Gazef short training fight was pretty well done. Sebas's kindness to protect Tsuare and making her into a maid is nice and respectable. However, Solution is right. It may just be how his creator made him be... (protect those who're helpless/weak) But that doesn't mean Sebas should not tell Ainz about her, even if it will disturb Ainz. Solution was exaggerating it though for saying that Sebas has betrayed them. Ainz's reaction to SeBaS' bEtRaYaL was perfect! |

| Second half more engaging than the first. Just waiting for more fights with characters I actually care about. |
 |
| Damn, this really a slow pace... |
Neji said: Another shit episode we are at 7th and there have not been a single outstanding episode so far. This has been a pathetic season. Only if you're a thirsty action junkie |
| Sebas turning against you? I don't think so, he looks extremely loyal to me...he's just operating on personal endeavors right now, which might involve not staying under the radar. This'll be a mess if he can't sort it out discretely with those guys which I guess where we are heading anyway. >_< |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |

Sebas knows he can't justify Tuare and his fear of that is making him commit such egregious mistakes that could be interpreted as treason by someone utterly loyal. |
Daniel_Naumov said: vangoz said: Rather than villains, it's more about the level of humanity. Sebas is unique among Nazarick, because of his creator he can sympathize with humans. Even Ainz, a former human, already lost his humanity since coming to the world. As for Cocytus, he just sympathized with the lizards because of his warrior nature. The other Nazarick members simply view humans as inferior beings, not even worth keeping as pets. Oh and you mentioned Demiurge but he's a totally wrong example if you realized the euphemism of what he's done. Probably not yet, I only slightly recall the first season, and I do not clearly recall any moment when Demiurge did something to solidify himself as a "Hero of Justice". He might be just like that Princess, waiting for the moment to turn the tables on everyone and wreak havoc. He's talking about the truth of the scrolls |
Daniel_Naumov said: If it has been in the animated series already, then remind me what happened, kind sir. You really couldn't tell that Demiurge made up the lie about the two legged sheep when he had that moment of pause? |
Daniel_Naumov said: Darklight0303 said: You really couldn't tell that Demiurge made up the lie about the two legged sheep when he had that moment of pause? Wheeeeeeeeen I do not remember it. When Ainz asked what the scrolls were made of. In this very season |
