So what is the verdict, did she deserve it or is it awful to hug women to death?

I don't suppose I could ask you people to hold on the novel spoilers until anime viewers actually get a chance to form their own opinions?

Actually it's implied that she has been fully resurrected. (Resurrection magic exists in this universe after all.) Supporting this is the fact that she straight up survived in the Web Novel. She realized she could not win and escaped.

If Overlord ends with everything Momonga worked for and tried to keep together being destroyed by a physical manifestation of the wrath of god summoned by the lamentations of all Nazrick's victims rising up to the Lord's throne it would be a dope ending.

Instead it's probably going to end with him conquering everything, never having been tried along the way very seriously.

One big thing you should take away from watching this episode is Momonga's default response to having to find an item a killer took from a corpse. In Yggdrasil, you dropped a random piece of equipment on death, so the tactic Momonga uses is valid. Momonga is teaching Naberel how to do basic PK scrying, and the defenses needed. The issue is, that Momonga is using the default version... which assumes that his opponents are level 100 as well, and have the spells that require all those scrolls to counter, so he is wasting scrolls. Stuff not covered in the anime: “Too modest. Although in the eyes of Ainz-sama, those Ogres were nothing more than insects, but Ainz-sama’s sword skills were at another level, truly admirable.” Below him, the Virtuous King of the Forest shook strangely, but Ainz paid it no mind, towards Narberal he said: “... It was just playing around with brute force.” It sounded like he said that to make himself sound cool, but that was not so. When he saw Gazef fight, Ainz saw his smooth moves, but when Ainz thought back about his own movements, he felt like he was a child wildly flailing around his sword, how unsightly. Their praise was only directed to the destructive power brought about by his arm. It was completely different from the praise to a true warrior like Gazef. “Moving around like a true warrior is actually really difficult.” “... Then how about using magic to turn into a warrior?” While wearing armor, he was still able to use around five different types of magic, one of those was the ability to convert his Magic Caster levels to Warrior levels. Meaning that if Ainz used that magic, he could temporarily turn into a level one-hundred warrior. Although the advantage was being able to use certain equipment of the other job, the disadvantages are also big. Firstly, during that time he would be unable to use any magic, and once he turned into a warrior he wouldn’t have any special skills. His recalculated stats would also be very low for a warrior. Simply said, he would be a half-baked level one-hundred warrior. It would be another story if both he and a High Priest fought using only swords, but for him to go against another warrior of the same job, there was no chance of winning. The scene with the scrolls plays out a bit differently: “This is a scroll of 「Locate Item」. You know what the target is right?” “Understood.” Narberal who acknowledged opened the scroll. When she was about to activate the spell, Ainz grabbed her hand and lectured the surprised Narberal coldly: “... Stupid.” The cold scolding made Narberal’s shoulder tremble: “I, I’m sorry!” “When using information gathering spells, you need to be prepared for counter spells of the enemy before casting it, this is the ironclad rule. Keeping in mind that the opponent might use 「Detect Location」, the basics of the basics would be using 「False Information」 and 「Anti Detection」 to protect yourself. Also──” Ainz prepared 10 scrolls, and explained each one to Narberal like a teacher. When using information collecting spells, you had to make the necessary precautions. Those were the basics. When Ainz Ooal Gown PKed, they would collect every information available about the opposition and settle it in one sneak attack. This was the ‘the battle is concluded before it even started’ dogma of the guild member Punitto Moe, who came up with the basic strategy for the guild, ‘PK can be performed by anyone easily’. That’s why Ainz taught Narberal the basics too, so when they encounter other players in the future, they could gain the upper hand in battle. “——That’s all. Normally a special ability should be used to strengthen it as well for insurance, but there shouldn’t be a need to go that far for the enemy this time. If they had thought of more ways to deal with Magic Casters, they wouldn’t had cast that level of spell on the corpse. Well then, let’s begin Narberal.” On why walls and guards are around a graveyard: A quarter of Re-Lantier's city walls was used to surround an enormous area, which took up half of the city's western district. That was the public cemetery of Re-Lantier. There were cemeteries in other cities too, but not one of such a scale. That was in order to suppress the rising undead. There were still many unknowns regarding why the undead rose, but unclean things tend to sprout from places where the living meet their end. The probability of the undead rising was higher for those who were killed and those who were not mourned. Hence, it was common to find undead in places like battlefield and ruins. Re-Lantier, which were situated near the Empire’s battlefield, needed a gigantic cemetery to prevent the undead from rising——a place for people to pay tribute to the dead. For this part, it was the same for the neighboring nation——the Empire. They also had an agreement to pay tribute to the dead during the war. Even though they were fighting each other, they still see the undead that assault the living as a common enemy. Apart from that, the undead posed another problem. If you left them alone, they might produce stronger undead. That’s why the adventurers and guards will patrol the cemetery every night and destroy the undead while they were still weak. The cemetery was surrounded by a wall, and this wall was the line separating the living from the dead. The 4 meter high walls couldn’t compare to a siege wall, but it was enough for people to walk on top of it. The gate was secured and sturdy, it definitely was not easy to break down. This was all done to guard against the undead that rose in the cemetery. Why the undead were making that corridor during the scene with hamsuke being carried: The low tier undead who lacked intelligence didn’t show hostility towards Ainz. They were sensitive to ‘life’, so they sensed that Ainz was from their own kind. But they couldn’t let go of the ‘life’ of the Virtuous King of the Forest that appeared later. This dragged Ainz into this chaotic battle. Narberal lifted the Virtuous King of the Forest with her flying spell so that the undead couldn’t touch and hurt it. When Ainz took a step forward, the undead would take a step back. Their distance remained the same in this encirclement. The encirclement with Ainz in the center moved according to Ainz’s pace. The undead seemed to be searching for an opportunity to attack, but anyone who will step forward would be destroyed by Ainz with one hit. So the undead simply encircled Ainz, not daring to engage. In the light novel later, Momonga makes a point of telling Demiurge to find the magical materials needed to make new scrolls, and if any equivalents can be found in this new world. Demiurge has a 'creative' method of getting new parchment used for scrolls, involving the prisoners from the attack on the town and healing spells.

Was it explained in the LN that Ninya was Tsuare's sister? I didn't catch that at all because there's two whole volumes in between. If they bring Clementine back that's going to lead to an interesting twist with Tsuare as the first human inhabitant of Nazarick. <- LN speculation based on spoilers.
