Thus far no, in the 1v1 and similar equipment case. most of guardians are lvl100, which is the cap and correlate to their strength.

Vol 6 is just the 2nd half of the same arc/story which started in vol 5. That's why the translator considers ch1 of vol 6 as "ch6" instead.

Victim possibly (if this season ends where I think it would, with Shalltear), Gargantua nope, not in this season.

pido125 said:

Victim is one of the weirdest looking among them.

pido125 said:

Yes but it would be too far for the current season to even reach it. You'd need a second season for that.

question: Is at any point in the novel revealed why and how Ainz and previous people got send into this world? Or is this just like log horizon where it "just happens" and since no one cares about it it isn't delved deeper into it and forgotten in the end?

not yet, and not anything soon. But in the far far future, I think it would be explained.

ggYeti said:

That's misleading, because although victim isn't lvl 100, it's still a high level monster, something like lvl 64, so still fairly strong in the new world. Around the power of battle maid I think. also, although he might be the easier guardian to be killed, he is one of the most protected guardian in the castle, meaning he probably wouldn't really encounter any battle.

Victim does show up breifly later in the story, gargantua no.
By trait you mean their ability? or race? or???
Spoiler: nazarick's mission is to subjugate the world, thus people from outside the castle will be brought in to help accomplishing that goal

2. What is Ainz highest magic tier level?
3. How far is the anime (including roughly EP13) compared to the LN?

1.No
2.Overrank magic that is above tier 10,but he also has a powerfull special skill exclusive only to his class.
3.The Anime will probably cover 3 volumes out of 9. The current arc is adapting Vol 2.
4. Anime will cover that so I won't spoil. Would be an akward yes/no anyway.
5.Yes(In Nazarick and It's not a floor guardian)

I think we all see that Shalltear is fighting Ainz in the opening in the red color armor.
Do you think by any chance that one is not Shalltear? Or maybe Shalltear relative or something?

1) guardian loyalty to Nazarick is absolute. Demiurge is sinister in sense he likes to experiment with humans.
2) Ainz is the owner, doesn't mean he is the strongest. All level 100 has similar overall power. If one win over another, that would due to external advantage.
3) yes
4) fully equipped king's captain, compare to Ainz still too weak roughly lvl 30
5) they are all very similar, mainly differ in battle weapon

Gazef equipped with the kingdom's 5 treasures should be way above 30, he did seem confident to stop ainz level 90+ summon.
It's just that Ainz death magic is too much for him.

It's an npc called Rubedo, she's stronger than a fully equipped Ainz and Touch Me (no world class items)
She's only been mentioned a few times, hasn't shown up yet.

do you mean albedo? the head guardian? she's a defensive character not offensive, which means she's difficult for other's to defeat her, but vise versa, she not the best at defeating others.

You can't change the fact he was ready to beat down a Dark Young that ainz summoned in vol 9.
His weapons were high tier too.

if you are equating courage to strength, not the destructive power, then I agree with you. But then, I would say Climb is stronger than Gazel in that sense. lol

fyi, Gazel could barely gave a scratch to Dark Young

Almost all non-Nazaricks in the world are below level 30. The strongest are around that level (with two of them confirmed by the char sheets, the two swordsmen, with Gazef of course edging out Brain as the highest between them). Clementine is suggested to be level 30 too, as well as most of the other members of that group she left. Then there will be a few more potential level 30s appearing towards the end of the season (the Shalltear arc).

Evileye is estimated to be the only human beyond level 30. She is considered to be around level 50 and able to go toe to toe with a maid (Zeta). Maids are level 50-70.

The strongest monster introduced (albeit in the drama CD apparently) so far is around level 80-85. So imagine WoW right now, with a level cap of 100 (thanks to Warlords of Draenor), that means the strongest monster we know of in that world of Overlord is equivalent to a monster released during Cataclysm.


Just realized that season 2 (yes there MUST be a season 2!!!) would be quite epic too. Lizardmen arc, plus the Princess-arc interspersed with Sebas arc. LOL

Evileye is not a human being....she is a Vampire....so she does not count....but there is more than one human that have levels beyond lvl 30....one of them is the one who defeated Evileye in the first place....another are those who are descendants that have palyers blood flowwign within them.

Also regarding Season 2...i have been saying this for quite a while now....there is a high chance that overlord is actually split cour...cause looka t the intro...it shows events that happened both in vol 4 and 5 ....and the last few episodes have been hinting on things they would encounter in those later volumes too....and jduging by the better expected results of the novel boosts said by the author himself...and the fact that the anime is doing good for madhouse....6.6k pre order estimates last time i checked...there is a high 90% chance a secodn season will be annouced.

To my knowledge,
Rubedo is loyal to Ainz since she is an NPC from Nazarick.
Most likely true, you can use Albedo's other sister as a reference.
Also likely true, due to her less predictable nature.
All above are inferences, since as mentioned above the light novel wrote only a sentence or two on her.

Ainz doesn't know what item befuddled Shalltear. He only speculates that the item is on par of world class item.
The number of times that wish maker can be used is base on the level of wish it must grant. It's is an easy wish, then the item can be used multiple times. He has not used wish maker in the new world

Whoa, thank you again. :) so if that item is not a *wi, then that is bad news.. An item that can be created with powers like that, can become some sort of a deterrent to Ainz and his comrades.....

When it dies or sacrifices itself, it activates a huge area sealing skill (I think it restricts opponents movements)

The one used against shalltear is a world class item, since it stopped the effects of the wish.
Only twenty *wci are "one use only" then they respawn somewhere I think, the mind control isn't one of the twenty.
The wci that sacrifices the user is one of the twenty.

The wish one isn't an world class item, it's magic that uses your experience points.
The item ainz uses is a special item that let's him use 3 wishes without using experience points.

The legendary heros are not all dead and they are most likely no where close to lvl90
