THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well this was quite an episode...

It was mostly dedicated of a buildup to hunt down Shaltear. Then, there's this guy whom I find to be amusing:


It looks like Albedo also shows some of her more vulnerable side.
Some decent on-screen chemistry between her and Ainz.

Well Pandoras Actor was the only saving grace here.

Why couldn't they just do this to Vol 2 and properly adapt vol 3. While the PA scene was ok(being generous) the rest...yea where do I even begin.If you thought the Anime was a mediocre/dumbed down version of the LN fear no more now it's time for butchering.

On the bright side they have 2 episodes for the fight.I guess thats what they were going for.

No Nigredo,Shizu,Magician Guild Leader,basically 90% of that incident and way more.Also some minor original stuff to fill some holes with.

They probably want to get over with it and just adapt the fight lol.I presume that'll take up the remaining 2 episodes.

No shizu ;_; ok seems they dont want to include a second season to this if they remove those scenes. Well nigredo second appearnce is in the end6yh/ beginning 7th novel so that they removed those is kinda not big for second season but still reall bad but that they removed shizu from the treasure room scene is stupid and the guild magician leader scene is also kinda crucial for the role of ainz... i liked the series but it will leave a dark spot on my list if they will also completely ruin the best fight to date in the novel.

No well... you see they only showed the the last scene besides Ainz warning Iguva not to follow them. Iguva being tied up and Ainz,Narberal,Albedo,Hamsuke just standing there besides Mare and yea..him crushing iguva.So awkward.

mm ok seems it would have been better if they indeed made vol 2 two episodes shorter and used it for volume 3.

Because moar budget.

But you know the funny thing is- how did they even find Shalltear without Nigredo?
Even without showing her they could've at least added a line like"Thanks to Nigredo we found out her location" or something similar.

They can still do sequels even with this horribly cut ep. :(

Atleast Pandora Actor was cool XD

This episode was fine. The pandora's actor was hilarious, and the albedo scene was nice too. Missing the uwah~ scene with shizu tho :c

But honestly, dont understand why they rushed so much, even skipping the negredo part, and pretty much cutting the adventure meeting, treasury scene.
MadHouse adapted the first 9 eps well, leaving room open for s2. Now all of a sudden we have a rush. It's like the other producers told them to "just wrap it up"

The shalltear fight will only take one episode, 2 would be a stretch. I fear for an original ending cutting off chances for sequel.

Well, the fight should be done well atleast.
Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse.

Now take a look at Berserk (2016).

They Rushed it Again...but it was not as terrible as ep 10....plus all the important scene's were done well....Beside's the scene's that were skipped does not effect the overall plot of the story...so they can still do a S2..and the Nigredo intro as such can be added later.

The only thing i thought was a waste they did not include was Shizu with Yuri Alpha....i don't understand why they did not animate her with them....but the second half got me pumped...I really hope the Battle will be worth it.

Also Good job With Pandora's Actor so cool..contrary to Ainz opinion.

So Pandora's Actor is younger Ainz's idea of a cool character. Kinda funny how he was so embarrassed about it.


Never thought I'd see Ainz lose his cool upon learning about the world item. His talk with Albedo was quite emotional. Ainz vs Shalltear should be good.

It didn't feel particularly rushed to me, and I honestly don't think that this episode was anywhere near as bad as some pople are making it out to be. At the very least, it was so much better than last week's episode in every way and probably had more emotion in it than almost any of the other episodes. Hopefully the fight will be worth it though if they really are rushing stuff.

it was a good episode but the problem was more that they deleted 1 scene from the novel where a new charachter got introduced and they left otu 1 of the pleidas (shizu) with no reason at all.

Pandora's Actor is awesome. I'm sad he will probably not appear anymore.

No Nigredo D: And quite the rushed first half. I guess they wanted to give fanservice to the Albedo fans and adapt her and Ainz's conversation in full.

At least Pandora Actor was awesome and obviously Miyano had lots of fun with him XD
Even Ainz couldn't take the embarrassment of the guardian he created.

Lets hope all the rushing pays off since they're gonna be leaving ~70 pages (PDF version) for 2 eps. The fight should be really detailed then.

Really the only entertaining part of this episode was the 2nd half, the 1st half was kinda cringey with the fast pace.

I was really looking forward to seeing Nigredo too, I hate that they skipped that part.

I really love this series, so it's kinda sad that their rushing it. But even though i say that I still like the anime even though it could have been adapted better. I still hope it gets a second season (that will be adapted COMPLETELY properly)

Lol Pandora Actor was hilarious, cool outfit but an embarrassing mentality.

This episode feels a bit rushed was a lot better than the 10th episode, it was really pleasant to see those treasury rooms and the golems.

I gave some answers about that in the previous ep thread but basically it was due to Shalltear's own carelessness. The Man who she knocked over was estimated to be around Narberals level so yes pretty strong. But it was still the item that was unexpected for her.

As for their ecounter, that was shown in the anime too when Shalltear was looking for that escaped ranger and suddenly her familiar died.
