| True, I can imagine him spamming the super tier spells with that cash shop item that can decrease casting time. |

ShadowZ_AnimeZ said: True, I can imagine him spamming the super tier spells with that cash shop item that can decrease casting time. They only decrease casting time, not cooldown though. Also I don't think he can replenish his cash shop items anymore, so I don't think he would continously use the cash shop items like that. Not that he needs to. For the usual goons spamming AoE fifth/sixth/seventh tier spells would be enough and with above-counter-stop mana reserves he would probably be able to regenerate his mana faster than he uses it, if he paces it properly. With some melee guardians helping out he could obliterate all of the Slane Theocracy. That all said, he would probably be cautious enough not to do that, considering the Theocracy's origins lies most likely in Seraphic players. I forgot, does the mana-requirement for each spell tier rise exponentially (2^(tier)) or factorial (1*2*3*...*tier). Well, let's consider that during the Shalltear fight he casted the various buffs and spammed a lot of 9th and 10th tier spells, most of which were triple maximize magic. Escpacially his multiple uses of triple maximize magic reality slash must have really cut away his mana reserves. Now even if the mana requirement is exponential, he can still use 16 fifth tier magic or 8 sixth tier magic for the same cost as spamming a single ninth tier spell, double that amount when compared to a tenth tier spell. He can use an insane amount of middle-tier spells. |

| Ains is really being brutal to those soldiers, but I wonder will Gazef put up a good fight because he'll definitely lose against the overlord. I think the guy who is Ains is starting to lose his humanity from this world, he's getting sucked by it the way he didn't feel remorse when he killed them. |

Thanks Take my statements, escpacially regarding how much mana cost rises per tier with a grain of salt though. I only vague remember reading about it being exponential or factorial, but I don't even remember where I read it or if the source was reliable. I know that much of the magic system is supposedly based on DnD, but AFAIK DnD doesn't use mana, but rather "spell slots", i.e. all of the DnD magic is like super-tier magic in that it's limited by how many times you can use it per day, I think? I am not sure, regarding table top RPGs I only played The One Ring a few times, but never DnD, but I think it's like that. Also the exponential or factorial stuff might have been regarding the spells' attack power, not mana cost... again, that's mostly speculation. Still waiting for that EP13 preview. It should be here anytime between now and 6 hours later... I hope it's released before I go to sleep... |

What actually nearly controled Shaltear was the World Item she had aka that white china dress. I mean you expect a skinny old lady to come out alive after being brutally impaled by Shaltear's last minute attack? So there are others who can use legendary items? I thought only Ainz has that power. I guess he's not that overpowered after all. |

You don't have to be a player to be able to use them and if the target has a world item of their own on them then the effects are negated on both sides so they amount to nothing. Ainz is special in that his build made for RP purposes allowed him to have an insane amount of spells and MP. |

I don't care about his level and MP, if Shalltear was hurt by world items, so can him No he can't be hurt by a world-level item. There is a special characteristic of world-level items that when two bearers of world-level items clash, then during the fight, neither of them can use the world-level item's effect against their opponent. They automatically negate each other's effect no matter what kind of ability it is. In other words as long as Shalltear carries a world-level item, then she is immune against any effects from world-level items, so the situation from last time would not repeat itself again, should there ever be a re-match. By the way, IIRC the red orb inside of Ainz's skeletal body is actually a world-level item as well. |

Say whatever you want but after seeing what happened to Shalltear, I don't think Ainz is that overpowered as some say. Yes, he's strong, but he's not invulnerable |

| Giant tentacle goats! Well so much for bringing out the armies. How long do those goats stay summoned anyway? |
 |
| Horrible CGI remind me of berserk. |
 |
| It's all set for the final showdown in the final episode. Does poor Gazef Stonoff stand even a glimmer of a chance? What will happen to Brain Unglaus and Climb? I can't wait to find out. |
| Quite the nice reveal, I do really wonder what the last episode of this season will offer though! |
 |
| The CGI was weird. I care about the story and characters, not bad CGI unlike so many people. I don't want Gazef to die. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| well wow that was horrific and totally something else...felt bad for the humans and yet so cruel |
 |
| Good memes. Good good memes. |
 |
OK ironically, those goats are "realistic", if you know what they really are. I didn't expect the Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath to appear different than this. |
| my dark magical girl webseries https://unsafemahoushoujo.wordpress.com/blog/ |
| this was an enjoyable episode for sure,although stranoff refusing seems to not make sense,as he knows that Ainz is willing and capable of killing not only a ton of people,but the king as well,so he is also putting the king in grave risk,all for the sake of his pride. accepting on condition that the king is spared would have been the sacrifice i expected him to do. |
| -C'mon Gazef, don't be an idiot. -https://lovecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Dark_Young_of_Shub-Niggurath Someone added this episode to the trivia. These things are an abominations. -All of those moments and considerations of diplomacy in the previous episodes were pretty much just a waste of time then. Why were they even worried about having justification for something if they were just going to do something like this based on a false pretense that everyone knew was a lie? -This whole massacre was just so that he could test out a magical attack :/ Is he sure he's rolling with conquest and not destruction of the world? He probably could have gotten them to surrender even had the initial attack killed a fraction of what it did. He probably could have ultimately created a pact wherein all the other nations would leave Nazerick alone indefinitely, since they would know that he could eliminate them all out anytime he wanted. There's no endgame now but destruction, as he's proven to them that he's an actively hostile existential threat to humanity with this invasion of his. |

| From a binge watcher pov, this is quite an event. As mentioned in the first season, Ainz didnt want to rule with fear. He even created a 'savior' persona from saving the Carne village. But what was started from paying the debts of Touch Me could escalated to an example of Nazarick's civilized village. I'm glad the events tied nicely within the story, even so what's the actual purpose of this massacre, i wonder. In the end what i get from these events are some of them were just piles of excessive interpretation of the floor guardians. It was hilarious to see. Also the CGI is to save time, at least i hope with this method, the animators didnt have to pass out. |
 |
| it was a massacre! I don't care if it was CGI, that was Terrifying as hell! those monsters were ugly as heck, and Madhouse did a Good Job on this show. it's not the best, but still amazing to see such a masscare on anime lol |
| F to the animation Jesus. the scenes was still pretty okay? It would probably be godly if they would do a better job with the animation that cgi tho. |
 |
| I honestly just bursted out laughing when the soldiers clapped rapidly |
 |
| Sorceror King Ains Ooal Gown showed how terrifying his abilities are to the massive army of Re-Estize with Cosmic Horror Baby Goats and the Empire ended up quivering in their boots even though the person doing the casting is right by their side. That moment when he ordered everyone to applaud loudly while one of the monsters quickly approached them was gold! Too bad Stronoff won't cast aside his pride and loyalty even when he knows that it's absolutely impossible to get a win out of the man who saved him... |
 |
| Gazef just threw his life away like that, what gives |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |

| I love how this series all comes back around to show you the development. The series started with Ainz going to that villiage and meeting Strongnoff and now they're facing off against each other as enemies in season 3. Reminds me of that Star Wars quote "Its like poetry" lol. God I love this series. Yeah this is Ainz just embracing his evil side now. The Arche thing was the turn and now he's going after Strongoff. Honestly Im not expecting any good people to survive this series by the end of it. (LN and anime). Maybe except a small few like Climb, Enri and Nephi. |

ShadowkillZ_ said: Darklight0303 said: Humans fight if they have a CHANCE to prevail. After what Ainz showed, no they don't. The only ones who MIGHT are the theocracy. THe Kingdom is literally broken in this battle. That would be the smartest things to do for them, well anyway. It'll be cool to see Ainz teaching some lessons to those who still have the guts to resist him/go against him. In this case...

Gazef The theocracy is lucky Ainz doesn't know they're the ones behind what happened to Shaltear. If that info reached his ears they would be wiped off the face of the world with ease. Jircniv's fate: so the alliance would be doomed to fail, they can't work together this is a treat but Spoiler warning before reading it https://overlordmaruyama.fandom.com/wiki/Sorcerer_Kingdom some places worship him as a god to put it short Agamenon said: This Gazef is an idiot Gazef: sorry I can't turn my back to my king Ains: dude if you don't there will be no king IKR lol that part was poorly written i say, cause that's pretty dumb and hes not dumb |

@Darklight0303 I made those comments before I read the Light Novel, by now I've seen everything up to the latest volume (Vol 14) and let me just say how ridiculous my statements were. What? Expecting the humans to rally up and charge towards Ainz with one united goal in order to preserve their human-dominated kingdoms? WHAT A JOKE!!! Ainz's terrifying presence is so extreme mere humans would rather kill themselves rather than seeing him being mad at them. |

| Well that looked like shit. Good to know they are from Lovecraft though, that's cool at least. Honestly I knew it wasn't gonna be a war anyway, but this was pretty boring. CGI monsters trampling over CGI people, with CGI knights clapping... This duel won't be anything at all either, but I guess it will be at least interesting to see whether Ainz kills him or he gives up and joins. Not that I see why that would be good for him, he doesn't really need any more power. |
 |
| Absolute dominance displayed here by Ainz with his weird-ass cgi tentacle baby goats thingies. Respect to Gazef for still opposing Ainz despite having witnessed a massacre. |

Respect to Gazef for still opposing Ainz despite having witnessed a massacre. why respect? is honor worth 10k lives or more? ainz did say there will be more lives lost if he says no, i would say hes a fool sins he could save lives with the word yes, but ofc it was just test he said that to test him, he was not serious but Gaz doesn't know that |

| Madhouse disappointed me this episode, too much CGI that isn't even done that well On the other hand Stronoff deserves some respect on his name, I hope he survives the duel against Ainz (Ainz lets him to live) |
| Besides the giant amount of CGI in this episode I still had my fun with it. So these are the baby goats from the cover and also of the OP of this season. Creepy if you ask me. But as expected Ainz showed absolute domination. Without any bigger effort summoning 5 (a new record for him btw lol) of these horrific looking creatures, wiping out 70k soldiers in an instant, there's only one thing to say: "Sasuga Ainz Sama!" Funny enough when you hear Jircniv at the beginning talking about Ainz "might" be able to take down 2 - 3k people with a powerful spell xD I kinda like the idea of Stronoff becoming Ainz's subordinate, but at the same time I knew he would never agree with this. Not sure what he intends with a duel against Ainz himself if he couldn't even take down one of the baby goats. Maybe buying time for the king? I'm not sure, but I'm a little bit sad that this will be the last episode of Overlord, at least for now. Let's see how things will wrap up. |

| If this was a different anime, this would be where our protagonist, Stronoff, and his two partners or deuteragonist, Brain and Climb, team up to defeat the final villain, Ainz Ooal Gown. BUT IT AIN'T!! |
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load. |
| Ayo. My mans Ainz said the n-word hahaha!!! Cthulu mythos monsters be like giving him the n-word pass hahaha!  Epic battle. Would give Berserk 2016/2017 a run for its money. Huzzah. Glory to Nazareth. |
