| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lol, a marriage. Glad to see Crusch this season though. This episode had an interesting feel to it and serves as a buildup. The way it manages to show the personalities of the lizard characters really made this appealing to watch. Again, I think this episode felt more like an episode to set up for the rest of the season. Still, I thought some of the info dump was interesting especially about the Lizardmen tribes. |

| I need more Mononga D: |
 |
| Yeah, sure why not, give us shitton of unimportant information about some secondary lizardmen clans, only so that MC can come, and be bombastic and save the day ... again ... |
 |
| Very well-pacing so far, enjoy the comedy effect of Eclair's shinenigan~ |
| Boring episode. Don't really care much about those lizard side characters. Too much screen time wasted on them. Hopefully, it's a build up for something better. |

Taste in anime does not make you a better person. Totally agree! |
| Is this overlord, or overlizard? Like wtf? |
 |
| Now, this isn't what I bargained for. but this is the first time I've been so interested in an anthropomorphic character especially one that came out of nowhere. I Imagine this is a necessary character development for the plot but considering its unique absurdity, they really did it well ^_^. Also Those 2 chiefs are adorable together, especially the way their tails sway when they're happy, ahhh they're so likeable >.<. I really don't mind this, I'd like to see more of Ains, but this is also really enjoyable. My one complaint is there was no OP Q_Q. |

| The whole premise of Overlord is to tell a story of some beings that crosses the path of Ainz and pay the price. It was like that with Clementine, Kajit and Nigun in the first season. Let's see the fun with Cocytus. |
| Well the people who would start to bitch about the lizard people have already arrived, they will (mostly) shut their mouths by ep 4. Anyway as an adaption goes, it was solid and i am it seemed like they managed to polish Rororo's animation in the final cut, much better than shown in the pv which is good. I liked the lizard flirting scenes, made a good laugh. Hope it continues to be good as so far as ln reader goes, the pacing and adaptation is solid. For those who want more action. be patient you will get them in time. |
| Gee, I'm not interested in lizard mating rituals. Was it really necessary to spend that much time on it? |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |
| Lot of reptiles talking for a very long time doesn't make for good entertainment. I hope in the next couple of episodes they mix it up a bit more. |

| Its a nice episode featuring those lizards but come on Ainz didnt appear this episode they should at least make the lizard intro a bit short Im really disapponted in this episode I gotten excited overnothing when the 1st ep is pretty good what a let down |

| Ho boy, it's that time again where I get to hear fans bitch about not getting enough of the bone man. Damn it's been a long time since I've read this arc in the LN. I've forgotten Zaryusu's interesting world view and decision-making. One of the better, more compelling characters of the LN. And what do you know? No Albedo. No Aura. Only a little bit of Demiurge. Thankfully. I hope I could say that for the rest of the season. All in all, I enjoyed the episode if only for reminding me to restructure my favorite Overlord characters list to: |

| Felt like this was 1 episode wasted on lizards that no one cares about, just 11 episode to go and it feels like second season hasen't even started yet. The fail lol |
| Lizards getting the spotlight, the tribe has food issues which can only be resolved by infighting. Looking beyond the sudden undead threat and gathering the tribes. Focusing most of the ep on this means the next few ep will be mostly action. |
 |
| Not gonna bitch about horny lizards but I hope at least lizards will be important for the story. |
| Not sure if it is worth some episodes, this story. They might transform it into something interesting later , but feels like a waste of episode (for now, lets see if it brings anything good in the future). Plus Overlord 2 has only 13 episodes eh, should be utilized better. |

| I really like Lizard Chieftains. They all have interesting characteristics. As someone who read the LN, I think the pacing of this episode was good. It didn't drown us with information. And it wasn't so hollow either. People complain about these side characters getting more attention than they deserve but in Overlord every arc has a separate MC apart from Ainz. That's how this series works. If you don't like Zaryusu, you will hate Climb I tell you. |
| Wait, is this a flashback? I am sure Satou already used his Meteor Showers to wipe out all the Lizardmen (and other species)! Why are they shown again when they are already all dead? Cross-series jokes aside, I can understand why people are upset about this episode, but unfortunately it's part of the medium. Light Novel readers got the entire arc in 1 package, but here people have to go chapter by chapter and it takes about 4 weeks to see an entire novel volume be adapted. But don't worry, folks! Next week we will probably get to see the absolutely best scene of volume 4 of the Overlord Light Novel! A hint: "Shallchair" |

| to summarise, it was another boring episode, so disappointing, the main plot is stuck in place & we see a side story that soon wont matter |
 |
| some weird fetish we got here, lol. |
| Did not got some good time of MC in 2 episodes , huh why my hype turning into disappointment |
| BRAWLERS |
| That's a lot of lizard flirting in one episode lol. I am kinda curious how things will go considering the Nazarick forces are incredibly powerful and I think the lizards are going to be absolutely destroyed so all this buildup is kinda strange. |
  |
Right I thought the same thing, but a lot of anime tend to have spoiler's in the opening and ending. I don't mind though, it's kind of thought provoking for those that don't know and can kinda guess what's going on or build up to that event. |
| Good episode! I find the Lizards to be an amusing bunch, it will be fun to see them crushed under Ainz feet as they beg for his mercy '' giggle '' |
 |
| Yeah, I couldn't care less about these lizards, so this episode was really boring and disappointing. This second season only has 13 episodes, and this felt like a complete waste of one of those. The quicker the show moves on from this arc, the better. |
| Waiting for "Lustful Argonian Maid - The Animation" episode. HEHEHEHEH |

| This lizard arc is interesting, but I don't really care much for it. It's just a bunch lizards talking to survive. That is one fashionable penguin. |
 |
| A great example of how info dumps can suck the enjoyment from the series. I'm much less hyped about the next episode now. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Why is everyone hating on this arc? |
| kinda enjoyed it but it was just nonstop dialogue..and really akward and weird at times. |
joe_g7 said: A great example of how info dumps can suck the enjoyment from the series. I'm much less hyped about the next episode now. Why? The next episode will clearly not be the same. I get why people dont like this arc. The LN has quite a bit of exposition first before we get to the action. People need to be more patient |
| Lol I knew people will be bitching a lot. Calm your horses. If lizardman arc wasn't necessary author wouldn't put it into the novels. Aside from that, I'm happy to finally see these characters animated. Also I'm glad to see Eclair scene animated! I was a little bit salty when they didn't adapt it in S1 |
| So the different lizard tribes are joining together for survival. Not a fan of spending an entire episode on them but this series has shown that it likes to take its time. Let's hope things start picking up in next week's episode. And come on, Zaryusu, just smash Lulu. The sexual tension was too much lol. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| One full episode was wasted on Lizards which was really unnecessary whole episode I was waiting for ainz ooal gown to show up but got disappointed instead |
 |
| I wasn't a big fan of the first season, but this Lizard arc looks interesting, glad to see more of it |
| @Crashmatt Focus on a character whom no one gives zero fucks about, heavy with dialogue, huge amounts of info dump with no room to breathe, awkward and cringy lizard flirting. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| It was definitely bad. If at least the Lizards had interesting characters it would be ok. But there wasn't anything that hold my atention. And that romance scene was really cringe |
