It'll become systematic, as I see :)

IMO, Ainz isn't good at planning, but he has good sense on what to do in situations they encounter. Also, luck is on his side to have so loyal subordinates.


True to a point... Luck/Fate (author's intentions) are on his side,in spades lol.
Ainz is trying ,in his way,to teach his friend's children to be not so blindly loyal.

Edit: If you are D&D fan an or a WoW player, I highly recommend reading the novel and the other source material.As is typical,a good part of the story is being left out of the adaptation.

Ainz/Momonga, all the girls want him lol, even Evil Eye.

Ah so it was part of the plan after all to have Momonga fight Demiurge.

Kick to the groin, that always works.

No surprise that Sebas defeated Zero easily like the others.

I see so Lakyus can resurrect those 2 sometime, a handy spell to have.

Wow that is some face the princess made at the end.

Of course to prove me wrong they could suddenly go anime original lol....But no,the season will conclude with the end of the 6th volume,so no cliffhanger.


Smart money would be on no season 3.

Uhm...is it just me or did Evileye do a complete 180 from the previous episode?

While there's obviously a vast power difference between her and Demiurge, she at least made an attempt to put up a fight and had a dignified presence last episode, whereas in this episode she suddenly becomes a fawning fangirl who can only cower in fear when Demiurge attacks? Wut? Like geez, at least make an attempt to avoid the attack or something!
she has near 0 mana and with demiurge's power what exactly can she do

Well, given I know the novel's background, this episode was actually decent. If only all the 11 episodes before this one had been as good, I might have been able to fully enjoy this season.

Good stuff:

1. In the novel, I had a hard time thinking of Evil Eye as anything other than a horribly old undead creature which quixotically decides to act like a young girl. However, this is partly fixed by the anime as she has a decent voice actor who is able to evoke that kind of feel.

Second, Sebas's entry and then crushing of the head of the opponent knights was very nice and Sebas had that wonderful line: "I was only a -tiny- -tiny- bit stronger" which was quite awesome to see.

Third, finally Momon's facade is revealed to be its usual "I don't know what my subordinates are doing" kind of thing. First time this season we get to see that.

Can't be sure, but I think the animation and sound were delivered better in this episode.

Weak points:
A bit rushed, even in this one. The pace was almost good until last five minutes or so. It just seemed slightly jarring and a slow close instead of kind of climax cliffhanger high.
They keep trying to quixotically focus on Renner's evil face as if it was actually going to lead to some big plot point

Well, Sebas (with some help) wiped out the house and rescued the girl, he surely deserves the 'employee of the month' award. Princess is more crazy than I thought, cannot wait for the last episode.

Sorry,"employee of the month"?
More like "employee of the lifetime"-since he damn well owned Zero,saved the girl,and said"that was a close call,it would seem that I was just the slightest bit stronger though" as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
I don't care what anyone says,Sebas is the MAN!
On a side note,the interaction with Evileye and Momon was hilarious.
All in all,a damn fine episode.

Guess I should have re watched the first season before the second lol. It’s not the staff he usually carries right! It’s been a while since I’ve seen the first season. I was thinking it showed the spine looking staff during the part when they resurrect Shalltear. But I’m probably misremembering things.

Can someone quote me with a spoiler tag and tell me if Demiurge dies.

Obviously this is staged for Ains to look stronger and gain reputation. Especially since the wall of flame does nothing.

And yeah I'm confused like many others. The action of this Anime is unmatched but you can also wonder why it's so rushed? You'd think this Anime is so insanely funded that they could make a 24 episode season.. Cause like there's literally SO SO many "?'s". And Madhouse isn't exactly known for making a 2nd season let alone 3 lmao.

And the lizard arc was SOOoooOoo pointless holy shit.

Anime is absolutely amazing regardless due to the characters and action.

I'm still not sure about what's the plan of Ainz & Demiurge. The same goes for the princess plan.
Ainz almost said Demiruge's name xD

The two blue rose members died? How did I miss?

Evileye going fangirl mode was amusing. Would like to see her face.

Sebas is one tough butler. Zero's attack was laughable and gave him one kick to the head to kill it. It was funny just kicked Succulent between his legs liked that.

Just one episode left.

I never thought I'd get so attached to Sebas and even his girlfriend. First I thought ugh...why are they showing this lame old man, show Ainz! Then he grew on me and whenever he's on screen, it's like, THE GENTLEMAN BAD ASS IS HERE! IT'S TIME TO PUT THE FOOT DOWN!

I seriously forgot all about everything except for Sebas and his new very young waifu. She's one lucky girl!

Brain was a fun addition too I think. Climb and especially the blonde squad bored me to tears though. Evileye shocked me with her cuteness though..grew on me fast. Too bad only one more episode is left before she develops. :(

Awesome episode!
Of course Demiuge doesn't know who Momon is so he used a different name Jaldabaoth! I thought the two are acting but not!
LOL at Evileye, immediately fallen also for Momon!
Lord Sebas was extremely badass taking that punch like it was a plaything for him! and a powerful drop kick finisher! such ease!
So human could use resurrection magic! I thought those 2 are really goners when Demiurge killed them...temporarily!?
wow! wall of fire (flame of Gehenna) but they said it was an illusion
Looks like Climb is no good within the care of Psycho princess Lenner!
5/5.

I was much hyped for Momon V Demi..er.. Jaldaboah or whatever... but the fight itself was pretty anti-climatic... kind of expected more out of it (going by the OP as well) but again it felt cheap animation-wise and reduced to yet another quick melee which we seem to get alot of this season. Alot of teasing and then the fights shit lol.

The ep seem to focused more on Evileye fan-girling which felt pretty weird and cringey as she only really just met Momon. Pretty meh first part of the episode imo.. but then again after the Entoma episode it was going to be hard to top that one in quality.

That's probably the only gripe so far I've had about this season.. its very inconsistent in quality. They have had 1 or 2 good episodes that feels like they spent money on, then the rest.. cheaped out on everything. Very disjointed feeling and even though I stopped reading the LN before this arc, you can tell it feels rushed or something is missing.

I love Overlord franchise but as we approach the finale of this season it is leaving me with a feeling of disappointment... and I keep thinking the show could've been so much more than what we got here. The story arcs are decent, but presentation-wise has been quite shit tbh.

And yeah I'm confused like many others. The action of this Anime is unmatched but you can also wonder why it's so rushed?


This season adapted 3 volumes(4th,5th & 6th)of the light novel into 13 episodes.Time constraints dictate the pacing for the most part,and that leads to the standard rushed pacing for the bulk of LN adaptations.

You'd think this Anime is so insanely funded that they could make a 24 episode season


Given the quality of the animation, I would argue that this season is hardly that well funded,Violet Evergarden,for example,is what a well funded LN adaptation not only looks like but directed & written.

Anime is absolutely amazing regardless due to the characters and action.


And the lizard arc was SOOoooOoo pointless holy shit.
Can someone quote me with a spoiler tag and tell me if Demiurge dies.
Obviously this is staged for Ains to look stronger and gain reputation. Especially since the wall of flame does nothing.


This season has been a standard,fairly mediocre,light novel adaptation meant to sell the light novel and other merchandise.

You say the anime is amazing yet you feel the first arc is pointless,not going argue like or dislike, but there are several points to the first arc story.

Though I feel the anime itself is,again, mediocre,the adaption has the dialogue,visual and audio cues to make asking "does Demiurge die?"rather funny (apologies for coming off snarky).

Ainz has stumbled into Demiurge's plot to takeover the Eight Fingers criminal organization,and as per usual, bluffing/ad libbing his way through.

Keep in mind Demiurge and Albedo have created Nazarick's plan to conquer to currently know nations,this season has been showing the initial steps of this plan.

Do not count on seeing Nazarick step out onto the New World's stage being adapted (the 9th volume).
