THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Ah, the training and seeing Climb working hard is almost inspiring.

Not bad for a buildup episode. There wasn't much action but it did give more insight for the people inside the empire and the Eight Fingers. Plus, we got to see a lot of personality from the princess too. Climb is also such a good guy :o

Sebas has also grown quite close to Tuare...

Wait, what? Holy shit, that episode felt 2 minutes long like...holy shit. Well uhhhh, alright. More setup and that annoying Solution girl with the big, beautiful tits going behind Sebas' back to contact Ainz. She deserves death for that. Hopefully Ainz is smart enough to set her straight. My goodness though, so many obnoxious blonde haired characters I'd love to see Sebas brutally murder in this arc. Along with a few who seem okay. XD Seriously like 95% of people have blonde hair apparently. Not much else to say really, still blown away by how little it felt happened but I'm sure the setup will lead us places. It's like I said last week about viewing this all at once vs weekly.

Another day another Episode to watch on Tuesday.

Pretty much alright but they seem to have skipped quite a bit of dialouge and background info in this one..to bad some of them were my fav, other ln readers would guess why.

At least their is nothing major that would effect the story.

As for how next week it will play out, it should be like this

Ainz just can't catch a break in this episode, starts the day worrying about money, ends it with a bombshell that manages to override the undead status effect that keeps him calm.

I can't believe they cut it in that moment. Starting next season I'm waiting for anime to finish airing before starting it (who am I kidding, it won't work).

Ainz really went out of character after that call from Solution. For some reason I really like those moments.

I'm super into how they slowly move the pieces together here.

Renner gave me a crazy vibe for a bit but i'm not convinced just yet that she might be off. People refer to her as a monster for a reason then apparently?

Will Climb have a big role in this arc? I'm a sucker for underdog stories like that, i need him to do sth great.

Sebas is not fucking around anymore when it comes to Tuare. In before havoc.

Sooo princess Renner is friend with Blue Rose members and the boss who order them to burn the drug field, good to know, Climb is a crap but i expect this, the last part was a masterpiece, Sebas will surely kick some ass very soon now that he learned who is behind that slavery holding and do these things to Tsuare, lol at Solution, she is a evil slime, she think that Sebas want to betray Ainz. :D

This episode is just more an introduction of fanctions, evil and good side, next one will be amazing.

5/5

ps: Oh, this episode felt like it last 5 minutes, the time i start the vision it was already gone in blink of a eye. Good job Mad House, good job.

All I have to say really is:

MAQUIS MOTHERFUCKING RAEVEN IS HERE.

Can we have Charles Dance voice him in the dub? Okay, that's reaching too far but can we have the dub VA channel his inner Charles Dance?

Two of my favorite characters down. One more character to adapt, Raymond Zarg Lauransan, which will hopefully be the Davos Seaworth/Captain Faramir of this largely eh tale.

Interesting, they moved Solution's message to Lord Ainz forward, and I actually think that was probably a good decision because of the difference in format from the LNs to the anime, and the fact that it doesn't really change anything significant anyways. I'm excited to see some of the fights from volume 6 that were a little rough in the LNs... Just writing about a fight's not easy, but animating it should come off a lot more fluid.

The differences between how Yen Press and Crunchyroll have translated some of the names in the past couple episodes (Tsuare vs Tuare, Succuronte vs Succulent) is a little strange and annoying though...

I liked this episode but it was short as hell

I had to smile when momonga mentioned that hes short on money and then theres Sebas giving that thug a bag full of plat coins ^^

Btw Momonga, his reaction to Sebas possible betrayel was funny as hell

Renner seems to be a great character, Im curious if she really has a dark side (judging from the ed song)

So both Sebas and those chick adventures(+Renner) have a quarrel with the Eight Fingers, wanna know how this will play out

No she's not wrong at all. Anyone not from Nazarick should be treated with lots of suspicion. They are an outsider. Especially a weak human. Why is Sebas spending so much time and resources on a weak human instead of furthering the cause of Nazarick? This is what's going on in her head. Sebas is not being forthcoming and he is not telling Ainz anything so of course she should be suspicious.

It works out to benefit Nazarick as we will see in the next few episodes but she did the right thing. I like Solution and she is only thinking about serving Ainz and benefitting Nazarick.

Also Renner is not what she seems...

THANK YOU! Someone FINALLY gets it. Sollution did nothing wrong from the point of view of someone LOYAL to Nazarick. Hell the fact that Sebas is making up excuses to avoid informing Ainz is the biggest mistake here.

I know the LN fans will be annoyed by this, and tell me Overlord is about world building, but I live for moments in Overlord like when Ainz and the gang are on the giant cube and the lizard people are pissing themselves.

Badass shit like that has me on the edge of my seat. I didn't start this show with the impression that I'd be spending 10 minutes per episode wondering who the fuck these irrelevant characters are and how I'm going to go about remembering their names.

Call me ignorant, but it is my personal opinion that this show was more enjoyable, if only for me personally, when stuff like liberating Carne Village was the highlight, and not going off on tangents with 10 new characters each episode.

Hey I got you. And yeah you are totally correct.

Also the characters that everyone hates are being introduced right now because it is "soooo boring". These characters are going to be crucial players for the next few story arcs.

Don't worry anime watchers, there's a storm a brewin'... and i don't mean with Eight Fingers...

Interesting episode, lot of setup.

I do get the feeling that there's more to Renner that what she seems but let's wait and see. I did like Lakyus and Climb is decent too.

I sorta get why Solution is suspicious of Sebas but I can't really see Sebas doing things that would inherently harm Nazarick but informing Ainz is not a bad idea and it's definitely good to let him know of the situation since Sebas for some reason didn't want too.

I hope Sebas wrecks those goons that were trying to extort money from him.

Actually, Solution did the right thing, its Sebas who went out with his own decision and not telling Ainz(whether Ainz will approve it later or not). Remember, he had to report everything that happens everyday. Solution even warned him beforehand. And looking at how things went with Shalltear before, she had every reason to be suspicious. For her, its simple, Ainz > Sebas .

I agree with you wholeheartedly... Reading about him in the LNs was the most annoying part of the whole series (so far)

But, let me guess how this will play out

Ainz: Sebas, did you betrayed us for real?!
Sebas: No, my Lord, I only got a human gf
Ainz: Oh...I see, good for you, guess all this chat was for nothing...
Sebas: And it seems like the Top Mafia from this kingdom is after me now
Ainz: Then just beat them to the ground. Have a good day.
Sebas: It shall be done Ainz-sama

Sebas is a natural lady-killer damn, i like his personality, the most human than any other Ainz guardian, of course Solution will get suspicious seeing Sebas doing so much for a girl.

after read the manga, there are so many converstion being left out, Climb suppose to be eavesdropping and talked a lot more, and the discussion about allegedly human trafficking is just too short.

still cant wait for more though, the manga ends here, shit i have to wait a week again:(

This was a slower episode again, and if I'm honest pretty much all I got out of it is that Solution is being a bit ridiculous (really, to waste Ains' time and call Sebas' actions a betrayal is nonsensical) and that Tuare looks a lot like the Princess (don't know if anything will come of that, but it was very easily noticeable this episode).

Ainz wanting a sponsor & the princess thats gonna get in big trouble, they are obviously are the answer for each other
Sebas won't be reprimed of course he will be complimented, not only he saved a person in need but also made one of the novilities expose himself, secured an info source & a bait that will lure the rats from their holes. Probably Solution will be scolded and maybe even punished.

Mostly a setup episode for future events, but the most interesting part (for me at least) was Solution telling Ainz about Sebas' possible betrayal behind his back. I'm interested in seeing how that will develop.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.
