That was a different one. The Death Knight Ainz lost track of after the events of Cairne village and the Empire found it, restrained it and has been conducting experiments on it.

In the book Fluder's had that Death Knight for 5 years, it isn't one of Ainz's summons.

ainz isn't the sole source of undead in the whole world. there are necromancers and naturally occurring undead running around all over the place.

Also important to note, Hamsuke is Ainz's childhood pet that got lost one day, pulled into the vr headset that was left on.

The entire anime takes place in the moment before the main character dies from having a stroke from spending a decade playing Yggdrasil and only eating Doritos and mountain dew.

I feel bad for those foresight peeps already, I hope at least the noble daughter paying off family debts makes it out of there somehow. Maybe she eyeballs the magic level of an opponent and just nopes out of there right away after none of the other workers listen to her. I suppose the best I can hope for is that a magic ability like that makes her too useful to kill or make into an undead, and that Ainz's crew has done their homework enough to know that. It's clearly not a foolproof skill though, unless the first scene of the next episode is her freaking out over Momon and Nabe's crazy magic power level.

Wasn't Nazarick made to be an insane death trap for any invaders during its MMO days? Yeah I can see these low level scrubs just walking out freely where appropriately leveled players got massacred.

Nobody broke Nazarick in the MMO days. Though this is mostly because of lack of effort. The only party to get into the higher levels got wiped by a strategy they hadnt seen before, considered it bullshit and gave up. After that everyone else just considered the place unbreakable and didnt try. Ainz estimated if the last party tried again and didnt die to the trick they pulled off they could have broken the dungeon.

Blackchamber posted:Wasn't Nazarick made to be an insane death trap for any invaders during its MMO days? Yeah I can see these low level scrubs just walking out freely where appropriately leveled players got massacred. Well to be fair, I think they're raiding fake copy Nazarick that Ainz has rigged to learn something or other about adventurers, so I'm not expecting the full MMO death trap. Everybody's doomed, but I'm hoping that the new characters I like are slightly less doomed despite Overlord repeatedly showing me my hopes are not to be trusted, except for when true Lizardman love is allowed to flourish. Also if someone can help me out since I haven't been paying enough attention: during the kingdom king/princes/princess scene they casually mention that 100,000 people were move around and kidnapped. Did the Ainz crew permanently abduct that many people, and did they bust out enough crazy magic to sneakily move around that many in the first place? I'm sure this was some stuff from late last season that I just tuned out on, but If someone can briefly break down what went down there I'd appreciate it.

Ainz estimated if the last party tried again and didnt die to the trick they pulled off they could have broken the dungeon. Yeah I pulled up the wiki: Additionally, the Great Tomb of Nazarick is said to be one of the most feared and legendary dungeons of YGGDRASIL. As Ainz Ooal Gown acted the role of an "evil" guild, there were many invaders who attempts to try and capture the dungeon, but all of them were repelled without exception. The only attack that ever reached above the 6th Floor was an alliance comprising of eight guilds and mercenary NPCs. They numbered with about fifteen hundred people united together against the dungeon. Despite the invasion from a guild alliance with their combined strength, it was still not enough for these invaders to even successfully conquered the 8th Floor as they were stopped halfway by Victim and the NPCs inhabiting there. So yeah, scrub workers will be fine I'm sure!

I don't have an answer to your actual question, but the 100,000 number is a mistranslation. It's "only" 10,000. Tamba fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Aug 18, 2018 |

The anime seems to have skipped that detail which is a shame since it kind of shows the difference nazarick denizens have. Some of good aligned denizens went against the plan and saved some of the kidnapped people for example which kind of pissed off the evil ones.

I'm pretty surprised how quickly they cut through the Worker goons, though it's probably for the best that they're speeding through this arc. *Edit* Upon rewatching I noticed the dude's elf slaves had their ears carved.

Seriously, I don't want them to die when they're functionally abused, mutilated slaves Kinda sad Swordasshole didn't get a more excruciating death, though the scene served as an interesting point, since it means the Nazarick forces can learn new skills, and possibly even level? Next episode will be rad, and just because I know some people miss these (like me, most of the time)  There was an after credit's scene

The "kidney stone" and insect bits were a bit much. Other than that it was pretty par for the course of an evil overlord's dungeon.

Yeah, the Neuronist's 'scene' was quite overwhelming (though I couldn't stop looking at his hilarious fingernails). The Kyouhukou encounter however was incredibly striking: the ominous red light illuminating the regal roach amidst a mountain of insects was probably the most intimidating the Nazarick crew has been so far.

If nothing else, now everyone who didn't read the LNs can get an image of why this arc is so controversial/reviled. The LN spent a whole lot more time detailing the backstories and personalities of all the workers, and it spent a lot more time detailing the horrific torture they faced.

Pure pure Pleiades season 3 is great. To recap, season 1 was Ainz accidentally undoing his emotion suppression. Season 2 was Ainz finding himself in an alternate universe where Nazarick was a corporation, with him as CEO Season 3 is the aftermath of Pandoras Actor casting spells *dramatically* while disguised as Ainz. So the Pleiades try the whole 'posing while shouting your attacks' deal, which spreads to the rest of the tomb.
