They quite literally invaded his home, pre-planned or not they served a purpose, it was actually them that made it worse when originally they would have received a painless death.

Fuck this guy. Fuck Ainz and fuck the author who wrote this dribble. I hope he becomes bankrupt and have to beg on the streets of Japan.
I don't like overlord or edgeshit either but no, he can't empathize. He turned into an undead who doesn't care about humans, so even if he was a human before, he doesn't now because that's how his game character was written and he's now that character. Him killing humans is the same as you killing mosquitoes. He did it to practice his new skills or something, i don't know because i dropped it before it ended. Stop speedwatching and pay attention before making useless threads.
Konosuba is terrible too.

Newsflash: Maruyama is a bad writer. He's degenerated so much he can't even finish the story.
I'm sure he gave various reasons for killing them, you're free to argue they were bad reasons but that's not the same as no reason.

Justice for Arche!
>creates a completely autistic little fake gladiator fight to crush what are essentially that. frankly,he lured into his giant dungeon
More put off by how petty and masturbatory this whole thing was desu
>Thieves invade his home
>Because he is a gamer he shouldn't kill them
What is wrong with you? Do you think the dungeons he raided or the guilds he raided all let him go free without trying to kill him?
>he doesn't now because that's how his game character was written
His undead race only regulates his emotions if they go out of control, also caring not caring about people outside of Nazarick is the natural thing to do. His real life self saw dead kids on the streets and starving orphans and he didn't feel the need to help, he hasn't changed all that much becoming undead, you'd have to be insane or weak hearted to place people outside of Nazarick on the same level as the NPCs (emotionally/caring)
Oh but he can take baths and FEEL like a human, huh?

Hello Aqua
CASTLE DOCTRINE FAGGOT
Ainz interviewed the one group before they even accepted the job. They basically told him they were in it for the money. He again asked all the workers what they were there for, they all agreed it was for the money. Only Workers were killed, they’re mostly scum that do the heavy lifting with no strings attached & no safety net.
He killed them because it was part of the plan of taking over the empire.
He obviously isn't really upset they broke into his home.
The only reason he got his hands dirty during the invasion of the tomb was to practice melee combat.
He did actually hesitate when they brought up being invited because he is so hopeful one of his guildmates is in this world. Which is important because Albedo notices that Momonga's only weakness is his guildmates.
>overpowered pay2win whale got isekai'd
>has NPCs literally lick his dick at any given moment
>kills people for no reason to appease the edgy goth crowd
Yeah so what I speed watched this trash, this mothafucking shit was boring as fuck. This series is literally the worst isekai ever. I hope the author becomes a bum.
>188951401
Nice bait (you)
ainz flashing his red ball to a crowd, kinky
He's the villain nigga
>>he's a fucking gaymer so he could empathize
That makes no sense, it's like claiming you sympathize with zombies that attack your farm because you played PvZ.
He doesn't realize that they're alive and not npcs
Ainz stopped empathizing with people a while ago. I still think they should have stuck to the WN and let Shaltear keep archre as a sex slave though.
>Konosuba is way better.
I think this is one of those times where it is actually acceptable to use the cringey adage "LMAO!" here on this forum.
This HAS to be a troll post. Konosuba is shit. The ONLY good thing about it is Aqua. All of the rest of its both characters as well as story are terrible.
Lmao at you
Workers like the Robberdick and Arche could have weaseled their way out with their motives but because they didn't want to come off as virtue signalling especially in front of their worker peers and as such they chose to go with the mentality of "no matter the reason, we indeed are doing illegal shit for money" and got fucked as a result. It's typical Overlord dark humor.
Ainz doesn't actually have much humanity in him, so he requires stimulation to bring back what little of his humanity he has. The Kino side story proves this, he can't connect with humanity on a large nameless stranger scale because his original life is one where such empathy was essentially trash to begin with (and now he's a skeleton with crazy evil alignment on top), that kind of thing has to be gained through interacting. It's why he was so damn reluctant to kill Gazef but gives zero shits about Calca. You can bet your ass if he met and had a talk with Calca over stuff like the Holy Kingdom's foreign policy he'd start getting guilty and awkward over Demi's plans. Even Neia only took so long to win Ainz's heart cause of her glaring eyes, just look at fucking Ainzach.
He's definitely evil, but he's not heartless so long as he doesn't see you as a statistic.
He asked them, specifically, why they were doing it. As Momon.
They all said money. They had their own reasons for needing money, but they said money. They wanted money. They were nothing more than petty thieves to him.
Plus that guy touched the reverse scale when he tried to pretend he knew a member of AOG.
The sense of touch isn't Human exclusive, and it's stated he feels everything as one would while wearing gloves, so just faintly.
Are you even trying, user? A blind man could craft better bait.
This makes me wonder what would Ainz look like as a living person
Still getting baited by this moe/shounen fags and look his posting that girl from that shit anime I dont even remember the name of
I thought you're better than this Nazarick bros
I was pretty disappointed in the animu adaptations, because they cut a ton of the internal/mental monologues. That's got nothing to do with the b8 OP left, I just wanted to make you read my thoughts aout the chinese cartoon.
But yeah, while Ainz isn't fully "evil" like mot of the NPCs, he himself noted that he feels nothing when taking human lives, so of course he doesn't give a fuck.
Plus, he felt like they were violating the sanctity of the awesome home he and his mates made - it's like they tracked dog shit around the place. He wasn't a fan of the ide to start with, but he went with it anyway. He was just gonna quickly kill that one adventurer group, too, but then they went and pissed him off by faking knowledge of another Supreme Being (which Albedo might have seen as his vulnerability, hence the potential killsquad with Rubedo)
How come we did get the good ending?
overlord is shit and it dozen or so of incel fans are mentally retarded mongoloids.
It has a pretty interesting premise, too bad it goes nowhere
>I still think they should have stuck to the WN and let Shaltear keep archre as a sex slave though.
At least we could have some porn out of it. Maruyama is only interested in lizard sex.
>At least we could have some porn out of it.
At least we've got one quite good doujin.
Ainz is incredibly pathetic. His 'friends' didn't give a shit about him or the guild, otherwise they would have turned up for his little party when the game was shutting down. However he was so utterly obsessed with them that he decided to go on a rampage on another world, killing thousands in the process, in pursuit of the incredibly low chance that (1) some of his friends had also ended up in that world, (2) they would hear about all the shit he was doing and (3) they'd decide to come and find him.
>Ainz isn't fully "evil"
He lets his minions run completely wild and personally wipes out an entire army just to prove a point. He's really fucking evil.
Cool characters, garbage story. Overlord in a nutshell.
What I meant by evil is that he wasn't ever really cruel, as such. But yeah, he's definitely not nice.
I can't disagree with Ainz being a sadboi, it's his whole thing.
It got boring and now it's just edgy for the sake of it.
>wasn't ever really cruel
I wonder what would you consider cruel even though Ainz and his followers torture innocent people daily.
>live in a world where monsters are monsters
>there's an abandoned pit with brainless skeleton monsters roaming around a goldmine
Humans have literally done 0 wrong in the entire series.
Someone can be evil without being a cackling psychopath who spends all of his time torturing orphans to death. Ainz isn't a sadist but he doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself or his 'friends', so he's definitely evil.
They violated the NAP.
Your pathetic self is the reason we get shit like shield hero where the villains get silly names instead of death.
He only killed Arche. The rest are recyclable material for his minion.
I'd pin it more on his followers. For example, brainlet Ainz is completely unaware that the "Abelion sheep" are people. Aside from that, the only people I can recall being tortured are the adventurers and the Eight Fingers or whatever they were called, the crime group in the Kingdom.
How would you (any user, not just OP) have preferred this to go? When would you make changes?
Not let the cute chick die, duh.
I don't see how doing a job just for money automatically makes someone scum. And I don't think they even knew the tomb was inhabited or had treasure in it when Ainz asked them.
Yeah, saying that anyone who wants to get paid for doing work is evil means that almost everyone is evil.
Keep in mind that Overlordfags tend to be loser NEET incels, they'd delusionally believe anything that puts them above the rest of the population.
Who's your favourite character?
>isekai LN is trash
whoa... who would have thought...
why do speed readers sabotage themselves like this?
now i hate him more
he being evil not because he is bad guy, but because of his stupid
Skeleton morality
>His 'friends' didn't give a shit about him or the guild
Or maybe their lives took them in other directions. HeroHero checked in with Ainz though he clearly had other obligations and he wasn't the only one to show up that day, only the last one to leave.
Thousands of innocents in the Holy Kingdom. The people that were abducted from thet Jaldaboath incident in the Re-Estize Kingdom. The Workers. The Sunlight Scripture. Any capital criminals that the Empire sends over as per their treaty with Nazarick. And that's just torture. We haven't even begon to get into his indiscriminate slaughter massive populations.
They like to dribble lmao

for me , konosuba is trash. boring
this Comparison is not good
He sperged out when they tried to bullshit him using his friends' names. Up until that point, he was calm and collected.
Anyone who defends this admits they enjoy hack writing.
LOL
He still acknowledged that it was a natural desperate attempt to survive. Also he still tortured the other guys who weren't part of that party.
what would you use a Neia Baraja for?
I want to see Jet.
>Also he still tortured the other guys who weren't part of that party.
Fair point.
I revel in my shit taste. There's always someone more elitist.
Loving her, caring for her, having a family together and having her glare at me during sex_____________.
>">he killed them for no reason"
First of all, he had several reasons. It was to instigate an excuse for war, show his might, practice his skills, and obtain materials for his team.
Ainz is not a good guy. He is not a nice guy. He is not a hero, a knight, a paladin, or even a friendly person.
He is, in his real life, just a working man who did everything he possibly could to become the utmost supreme in a game he enjoyed playing. Upon coming into his characters body, he vast amounts of his emotions, as well as a connection to the common morality of man. He is a giant skeleton surrounded by an army of monstrous beings, and his ONLY goal is the same as always, to be the fucking strong, and lead the strongest guild. He roleplayed as a race called fucking Overlord for christ sake.
What does this all mean? He will lie, he will cheat, he will murder, he will plot, and he will tear apart everything you love if it's for the sake of himself, his guild, or his/his friends NPCs which he sees as their children.
This is the story of the bad guy, he does evil things. That's why it's called Overlord not Friendly Lord.
because the MC is basically me !!!
Ainz literally paid s Nobel to set up the quest to raid his own home to see how well his defences will hold up.
he lost vast amounts*
>This is the story of the bad guy, he does evil things. That's why it's called Overlord not Friendly Lord.
So why do people pretend that he did nothing wrong?
Beach activities soon.
because for some reason people care
seriously, I don't get it
why do people want the skellington to do no wrong?
though depending on your PoV I guess you could try and justify stuff
I stopped watching it halfway through episode one.
If you continue to watch this trash it's your own fault.
X did nothing wrong is a meme.
Morality is not absolute, and means different things for different people. If a wolf mauls you because it's hungry, would you call that wolf evil? If a bee stings you for breaking its home, is the bee evil? No, of course not.
Ainz is a lich with his emotions sealed off in the role of an evil villain. Lair, minions, a giant big dick throne room, he has it all going on. From his perspective, he is doing the right thing because he is benefiting the things important to him. If a country invades another is it because they're evil? Well, if you're being invaded you might say that, but the invaders would disagree.
While his actions are without a doubt those of the villain, he is the protagonist. You are supposed to cheer him on for his evil deeds, he isn't the hero. This isn't a heroes' story.
>You are supposed to cheer him on for his evil deeds
What? Why the hell would I want to cheer on that evil bastard? Considering the vast number of people Ainz has tortured and killed what I want to see is him getting utterly destroyed.
Would you watch a volleyball anime and wish that the characters would play basketball instead?
This is not a story about a hero for the third time. This is the villains' story. If you don't want to watch the villain win, go watch BNHA.
people keep bringing up this excuse, but then at other times he shows perfectly human behavior and his emotion-suppression thingy has to kick in to stop him.
the writer is just inconsistent as fuck
To pull the villainous protagonist right, you need to write a charismatic character.
Who would want to root for an hypocritical, morally-challenged and pathetic piece of shit like Ainz? It just doesn't work.
The thing is that Ainz has no real reason to be an evil bastard. He's incredibly powerful so it's not as if he's in danger if he doesn't go around massacring people. And his minions worship him as an unliving god, so it's not as if they'd try to destroy him if he told them to stop torturing humans. All the evil shit Ainz does and condones is completely unnecessary.
Death Note had the villain protagonist dying like a bitch in the end, which was pretty satisfying. I found Death Note much more interesting that Overlord though because Light wasn't as OP as Ainz is.
Not him, but I agree. Ainz isn't charismatic or interesting enough to compensate for how he acts.
People who appreciate the character and/or the story, I suppose. If he's not your cup of tea there's not much to be said about it.
>Hypocritical
He only cares about the well being of himself, his guildmates, guild home, and his guilds' npcs. Anything he says or does to people outside of that is just an act.
>Morally-challenged
He wouldn't be the villain if he was lawful good.
>Pathetic
In what ways?
He believed much the same as what you said in the first season. While cautious that there may be other people out there like him, he was still mostly just fucking about. The fact that one of his strongest servants, Shalltear, was able to be permanently and irreversibly mind controlled despite her natural immunity to it scared the shit out of him. He now knows people out there can A) Harm him. B) Harm his NPCs. and C) Can harm Nazerick.
As for the torture... Why would he ask them to stop? Unless he or his people have an interest in you, why would he give a shit? As his emotions are stunted due to his ability, he is only able to think logically.
>let human #412371 live
>get nothing
>give human $412371 to a minion for their desires or needs
>nazerick directly benefited
Your life is simply not important unless you have use to him outside of being material.
Not hm, but the way Ainz pines for his friends and slaughters countless people in the hopes that they're out there and that they'll pay attention to him is utterly pathetic. Also he's a dude in his video game character's body; there's no reason for him to roleplay being an evil overlord.
You're describing Ainz as a coward. According to you he got scared, so now he's lashing out and slaughtering people because he's insecure.
And you're asking why he shouldn't treat people worse than humans treat cattle? Anyone who's not a complete psychopath would do that. He used to be a normal dude up until he got sent to that world so he should be judged based on human morality.
Because justification is the only big redeeming quality going for Ainz, and even villains require a redeeming quality for the audience to like them. Without it, it becomes much harder to find Ainz likeable.
oh please
i rather watch Dio being absolute evil bastard who kick dog for shit and giggity over Ainz
litteraly everything Ainz do is down to "holy shit i did something stupid, but somehow turn into good"
Ainz seriously lack of evil guy's charisma
forgot what website you are on, pal? anyone who read that part in ln knew loli was dead the second she got introduced, literally setup as sob bait and people still ate it up.
Man if anime ever gets to holy kingdom i can only imagine all the brainlets reaction to retardios being retarded to the point of contrivance.
Summary of overlord: skeleton evil mage lord god of death is not nice, life of others suck, and having them do slice of life stuff in tomb is fun cuz moe gap and knowing how average hummie perceives them.
>man wanting to see his friends he's spent years with is pathetic
If that's your measure of pathetic I worry for you.
>Ainz is a coward
Yes, he is. The reason he fought Shalltear at an incredible disadvantage, and didn't use any rare items to cure her or defeat her, is because he was afraid that there was someone waiting nearby to trap him. Ainz comes from a video game. There are other people who could defeat him, and they might be out there. He hasn't died yet, and doesn't know what happens if he dies.
>Anyone who's not a psychopath would
Upon becoming the Bone Lord, his morality changed. He said it himself in the first couple of episodes when killing the knights,
"I really don't feel anything even when killing other people."
Okay watch Dio being an absolute evil bastard instead then. I'm not here to convince you to watch Overlord. In the first place, if you guys don't want a story about a man trying to fit into his role as an evil Overlord, this isn't the anime for you.
This, i love Dio because he's just evil for the sake of it but in a good way.
Ainz is just a retard
Literally ask anyone why do they work and you will get money back 99% of the time.
>reee dropping the nukes is evil the us should have found a peaceful way to fix the retarded mindset of the nips
His 'friends' didn't care enough about him to stay with him when the game was going to shut down. And he isn't just pining for them, he's slaughtering countless people in the hope that this will cause them to come and find him. That's insanely selfish and pathetic.
A psychotic mass murdering coward who clowns around but things end up working out with him followed by all his minions becoming impressed because they think that this was his plan all along and proceeding to suck his skeleton dick even harder isn't a character I find interesting. Saying that he magically became evil just serves to make him less interesting. Why even bother to have him be an isekaied character if his personality turned into that of an evil overlord upon arrival?
>If that's your measure of pathetic I worry for you.
I wonder what Touch-Me would think of Ainz' actions.
The invasion of Japan would have resulted in hundreds of thousands of American deaths and millions of Japanese deaths. Equating that to Ainz slaughtering entire armies because he hopes that will make his senpais notice him is fucking retarded.
Spergs, anime onlys and speedreaders, if fucks actually played it for "cmon maqn we jsut doing their job, that girl has her family shit" ainz would still kill them because they would kill him if he was lvl 1 skeleton mage but probably would do somethign about loli sisters out of guilt.
But because they triggered him with friends autism he decided to go ballistic, and his plan was to experiment on guys to see if he can learn skills, farm exp, or modify memories anyway. And he still decided to go edgy, but not sadistic because they were good buddies.
>hires raiders to test if dungeon works like in game
>plans to kill and experiment on people ito see how game mechanics work
>fucks try to quilttrip him
>loli character literally written as "last day on the job cop" with shit parents and sob sisters waiting for her
>deathflags mroe than in ainz's army
>Extreme evil skeleton killed them reee
It's like none of those cucks even noticed that he's an asshole in this story, guy has ressurection on quickcast and could've saved every dead person around and isntead he decided to cosplay a knight and scam protection money from some hag.
why?
Instead of deaths of the whole military and the population now it's just a part of the military that's dead, a clear decrease in deaths over the alternatives.
After all when invading another country you don't just get dead soldiers, peasants die enmasse too especially in countries that literally recruit commoners as policing force because their army is weak as shit.
It is like half the ones complaining are stupid and the other half are baiting shitposters, and then theres the dude explaining while ignoring lack of knowledge and understanding.
Are you all just filthy secondaries?
Ainz is a saturday morning villain, but winning every time.
Prove me wrong.
Because it's just a game. The guild is entirely composed of people with real life work schedules. We were told that several showed up for the party, and Herohero was just the last one to leave. Why would you stay on a game you knew was going to die in 10 minutes just to sit and talk? They probably would have just used IM to talk afterwards if they had any desire to do so.
He isn't explicitly slaughtering people in hopes his friends will show up. He changed his name to AOG under the hope that if someone hears of it from his old guild, they'd come check it out, but he's doing what he's doing because he's increasing the influence of Nazerick. His all time goal.
It really just sounds like you aren't interested in the story, or the characters, so you probably would enjoy a different anime instead.
Hard to say. The guild was founded as a safe haven for monstrous races, but at the same time they very obviously played the villains to some degree. Touch-Me probably would be fine with it all until he realized that the NPCs had full consciousness and Ainz was basically just killing humans at this point instead of programming.
The author is tired of overlord and doesnt even like Ainz so when the story ends I think Nazarick will fall and all of them will die when the new world joins together and conquers them since they are the villians of the story.
Overlord is just a shit story about being overpowered but the author ran out of steam and is trying to turn him evil so that the readers can sympathize when the new world wins.
Exactly. I still remember when he was in the village and thought, "Well I could revive everyone in absolutely no time with no cost, but eh... I don't really want to." He's the fucking villain. Of course he's evil.
>his morality ahs changed cuz he's skelleton
Like you wouldn't just kill people for personal gain and safety of people close to you if you could do it absolutely risk-free.
Ain't gotta be a skelleton, I'd shoot drunk teenagers outside for being loud if I didn't value my freedom higher.
And he's in position eh can just squat govs down like flies and rly only has to care if someone with lvl100 sniper assasin class wasn't transported there with him.
>is trying to turn him evil
He was evil since the very first book you dunce
why evil, i would probably not care as well if i wasn't invested into character, people die in china harvested for organs in thousands and al li really want is cheap pc parts and food. ?
1. The nukes did nothing
2. The US was specifically targeting civilian targets in both theatres
The US is, objectively speaking, evil.
>We were told that several showed up for the party, and Herohero was just the last one to leave
no we weren't?
I've been saying Overlord is shit for years and kept getting piled by the autistic fans (who makes Index posters look sane), so it's hard not to feel vindicated now that's the opinion turned around with the atrocious adaptation and Maruyama's antics.
>Trying to negotiate a surrender rather than surrendering unconditionally without fully understanding how it influences the other belligerents and different fronts.
TWO NUKES WEREN'T ENOUGH.
From what I've gathered from this thread, Ainz is a petty bitch that wouldn't like the same thing happened to him using the same logic as he did. I can stand a psychopath but I cannot stand a hypocrite.
No really guys tell me I want to know.
Literally episode 1.
Ainz is more like Lawful evil instead of bloodthirsty psychopath. Utterly without empathy and mercy when it serves no purpose to give any, very pragmatic kind of evil.
He tries to tone down cruelties simply because other guild member might not like it.
All this time later and brainlet shounen waifufags are STILL mad about season 3 BTFOing them.
>anime and manga board
>reeeee read multiple books discuss how bad this anime is!
Why do people think it's acceptable for show to be bad if the source is good? Not that overlord is anything but an edgy cringefest at this point.
I've tricked myself into watching all three seasons and I really hate myself for that. Not only the anime is low-quality, but the whole plot is just an endless loop of Ainz fucking up while accidently ending up looking as if he's competent. And it's not even done in some particularly interesting way, it's just that everyone around him are stupid or enamored with him for reason or another. There's no sense of danger, compettition or any kind of serious inner or outer conflict. Ainz issue never make him fail, his enemies are never a real threat and his conflicts with his subordinates always resolve in a neat and convenient way. I would have forgive it all if at the very least the show was a sociopathic dark comedy edgy gore fest, where terrible people do terrible shit to nice people and no one can stop them... But even in that department Overlord is pretty damn timid.
>ITT brainlets
LNs are fucking terrible too, so it's really not an excuse.
He was neutral when he first came to the new world speedreader but then Maruyama cant write good characterization so he went for the lawful evil route.
>cute innocent girl is the same as some ass bigshot adventurer trying to get ahead of him for nothing else but greed
Ainz doesn't know, or care about Random Girl #47's backstory.
Overlord is a dark comedy. Its tragedy for everyone outside of anime. Shounnenfags can't understand anything that isn't Ainz having to fight a bunch of different enemies in a formula they've seen 10,000 times and whiteknighting waifufags keep going "muh edge" because all the ecchi and FotM anime has made their brains soft.
The anime isn't a good adaptation because it can't adapt inner monologue and that's where a lot of the fun comes from. Volume 7 in season 3 was the turning point because the majority of Yea Forums is too stupid to pick up on a series literally named Overlord about a magical skeleton tard wrangling his walking holocaust children might not always be so nice and can't understand that edge != taking itself seriously.
It's not a dark comedy, it's a dark-ish borefest.
based retard
I love delusional overlordfags are about their shitty show and books
seething lmao
>how can Ainz just kill someone?! that's so evil!!!
>Ainz ominously asks if the workers are just in it for the money and gets laughed at for asking such a dumb question

Looks like Overtard is a crossboarder.

They were contracted to explore the Tomb. Them just carting off as much treasure as they could carry from the surface would be a breach of contract. If anything them ignoring most of the valuables in the exterior proves that they weren't solely in it for the money.
It was cool at first but watching him effortlessly beat everything is dull. Where is the rising tension or meaningful enemy?
Where is the conflict?
Nazarick is a dungeon run by the guild Ainz Ooal Gown, and has ben raided by other players (all of them died). That's why they have guardians of each level.
For Momonga it was just another raid, this time by small party of noobs.
>soul: chinese cultivation MCs
>soulless: chinese cultivation MCs
accurate
Side characters. If you read the novel they’re interesting. Especially the new world ones, because you know not all of them are going to make it.
So?
reminder that hackuyama has no idea where he is going with this
So he does not know she is innocent, or that she has a family waiting for her, or anything.
She, like everyone else involved in that raid, was a thief. Nothing more.
>skeleton wizard do bad thing
>hehehe
>skeleton wizard do bad thing to girl
>WTF THIS SHOW IS COMPLETE GARBAGE
Its not funny.
He wasn't neutral he holds the exact same stance he holds now it's like you didn't read the books the manga or watched the anime.
Ainz never changed the only thing that happened was him reacting to the outside world
>literal retard can't even comprehend simple replies
Hah, sure user, you are right.
>white knight sperglord Sir Incel the IV literally can't understand why a girl would ever die in fiction, regardless of circumstances
Sorry your highness.
They were criminals their contract is as legitimate as your contract to buy crack from your dealer.
So where was the outrage with Clementine? Clearly the same should have happened if its just about cute girls?
>Where is the conflict?
In the characters about which the books are.
Ie the lizardman one whole novel, climb gazef and his gang about 1-2 novels, Nfi and Enri about 2 maybe more novels worth of content.
in the first 9 books ie what the anime adapted, you have quite literally about half of it be about side characters reacting to the influence of Ainz, i don't remember how much the workers make out of their book but it's hardly a small amount
But of course you don't care about side characters you want shounen shit where the MC constantly fights growing threats.
>you dont like girls getting tortured and killed?
>what a weirdo!
Clementine wasn't cute she is an ugly psycho, but most importantly she didn't have a sob story.
Clementine was set up as more objectively evil from the start. Two evil people fighting? No one is really going to care. We got a sappy backstory behind Arche "Literally Born to Die" Thiefbag, so people cried.
The men were also tortured and killed. Why do you cry about the girl whose crime matches theirs?
So where does a skeleton get property rights?
The same place they got their thieving license.
Men and women are not equal.
His house gave them to him, more or less literally.
The moment they decided to live their life as an adventurer instead of staying at home is the moment they gave up their pity my titty card.
If someone breaks into my house, man or woman, I'm shooting them all the same. I don't care about their backstory.
If he is not legally recognized, then they are not thieves. How hard is it to get? They were literally freelancing adventurers hired to search a ruin (by ainz). Aee you going to go after trash collectors picking up your garbage because they are only doing it for the money?
How do property rights get decided in the first place? Someone comes along and claims the land, and fights off whoever tries to stop them.
Ainz had a building on a piece of land, and militarily defended it. He has earned his property rights. Other nations are free to try and conquer him as per usual but.. Good luck.
Also, Ainz wanted them to invade; yes. But from their perspective, they were contracted to desecrate a tomb. They had full authority to refuse and stay home, but chose to do it out of greed.
If a trash collector comes into my house and starts stealing my shit, and then telling me that my friends told them it was okay, yes I will.
>If he is not legally recognized
He is legally recognized, by both the world and the area. And there is no higher authority. Besides you are not allowed to just raid random ruins, that's another reason why this job was not given to the guild but to filthy criminals.
>freelancing adventurers
Yeah just like bank robbers are just freelance investment bankers
>(by ainz)
By some random noble
> trash collectors picking up your garbage
Yes if that trash collector ignores the trash infront of the house and breaks into it just to take the trash from inside then yes i'd shoot that bastard, he is paid to pick up the garbage from a designated area not from wherever he feels like it.
> Someone comes along and claims the land, and fights off whoever tries to stop them.
Yes that's how it works even in reality, the only reason we don't have to kill of invaders is because the state vows to protect our rights.
top tier brainletting. it's not "doing work for money makes you scum" it's "doing dubious work like raiding tombs solely for money makes you scum"+"If you are willing to risk your life for money then you can't complain what happens to you, after all you did risk your life."
>the state vows to protect our rights
*the state vows to kill invaders in exchange for taxes
yes i assume that its implied that nothing is done for free
>overlord bad because they killed muh waifu
Arche violated the NAP by stepping into Ainz's dungeon. I don't see anything wrong with him murdering thieves.
No seriously, adventurers are like 90% grave and temple robbers. There's a reason why we don't have adventurers in real life
Is their anyone else in overlord that is like Ainz? Is anyone else stuck in the game world because he stayed on and is wildly overpowered?
Citizen rights are relatively new and only really applies to modern nations, while taxes in exchange for protection is something that almost every government has practiced.
There were, but it seems like in the current time period there isn't. For example it's been confirmed that some of the legendary figures in the story are former players, but so far Ainz hasn't actually met any in person yet.
In the past there were, and we won't find out if there are any in the present because maruyama is a faggot who doesn't want to actually finish what he started.
>while Ainz isn't fully "evil" like mot of the NPCs
This is why "anti-hero" isekai is so shit.
>your self-insert all powerful mary sue being seen as literal monster by the normal people could be an interesting concept
>but then you'd have to admit that your mary sue being the best at every thing is bad and that your mary sue isn't perfectbecause they're morally flawed so turn random people into the most irredeemable pieces of shit so that you can say "mary sue is a bad guy but not that kind of bad guy!" so you can have your cake and eat it to.
Well if that is true then Maruyama needs to introduce another player to be an actual convincing threat to Ainz and not "shadowy organization that gets BTFO the minute Ainz finds them".
sorry to burst your bubble, but
>he only wants to do 18 volumes, maybe 20, though he's "got material for possibly up to 50"
>14 volumes done
before you ask for sauce on that 50 number, it's from some interview that I don't have a link to
Investigating a seemingly abandoned tomb hardly seems like dubious work.
Would you dig up an unmarked grave just because you can't verify who owns it?
Maruyama is a faggy edgelord for purposely twisting the knife with that retarded forced backstory, but people who got pissed that a tomb robber got murdered are braindead waifufags.
The power fantasy is part of the appeal. I won't lie, I'd be mildly upset if something like that happens, but I can see why it would be better for narrative purposes.
I enjoyed the knife twisting, it was a real fuck you to the idea that in animu and LNs, cute girls in danger will almost never get killed
Low-IQ opinion. Also, Ainz isn't nice.
>twisting the knife with that retarded forced backstory
are you retarded? it's the reason why a noble's daughter was among adventurers in the first place
do you think they raid tombs for fun?
PDL and DDDL will work together to magically seal the great tomb so that it can never be entered or left.
I bet the end will be some such bullshit.
Isn't that exactly what archaeologists do? It's not out question to search an old looking place if nobody minded or knew about it.
I'm not calling it an asspull with no foreshadowing, I'm criticising the entire backstory. I just though it was a cheap appeal to emotion. The author's confirmation that the sisters got sold to slavery and overworked to death just confirmed my intuition that he's just a massive fucking edgelord.
Isn't that what archaeologists do? It isn't out of the question to investigate a place if no one minded or even knew about it.
>do you think they raid tombs for fun?
Well i wouldn't doubt it considering some of those people.
nah, the end will definitely be some whale from Ygg 2 kitted in full WCI pwning Ainz's shit
>time stop countermeasure countermeasure countermeasures are important
Well it's one thing if you excavate a grave and find a skeleton, and another thing if you excavate a grave and find an angry skeleton. You undeniably broke into their home regardless of reason.
None-the-less. Ainz might have granted mercy to them had they previously told Mamon that they had deeper reasons than money to do it, "I have to work or else my siblings will die! I don't like doing it... But it's all I can do." Ainz would probably fall for a sappy story like that. But instead he got, "I want money even if it kills me." So he killed them, they were prepared for that.
>He could empathize
His emotions and empathy are being magically suppressed by some as yet unknown outside force, you dolt.
Did you miss the part where he slaughtered a whole bunch of lizard folk for little to no reason? It was a flex on his part to establish himself as a dominant and very powerful individual in the setting he got isekai'd into. He needed to make an example of those adventurers, just as he needed to make an example of the lizard people, just as he needed to make an example when he summoned those shitty CGI monsters to rampage across the overworld. Couple this along with the fact that his skellington physiology makes him physically incapable of experiencing human emotions and the justification for killing them is easy.
Undead don't exist in our world though. The closest equivalent would be traps, and very few would criticise a tomb builder if an archaeologist dies to a trap.
Anyway, forcing human moral standards on somebody who's mental processes have clearly been altered by their change in race is questionable at best. The best you can do is to look for inconsistencies in his standards and call him out for it
>a world where girls like Tsuare get thrown out every other day, where villages get captured by bandits and get turned into weed fields after tons of bloodshed, where demihumans get murdered by the hundreds because some noble has too much money and they ruin the view from his mansion
>i sleep
>two lolis get enslaved and die
>oh the humanity, will someone stop this madman of a writer?
fuck you and your double standards
many characters have tragic backstories but we wouldn't know because the LN is not about them
Took you long enough to realize that.
That's what CSI does in the real world, yes. Problem is that what they were doing was the equivalent of grave robbing, not identifying an unidentified body.
I'm saying that it breaks my personal suspension of disbelief. I have a problem with him making characters cartoonishly sadistic too, but that's a different story altogether.
Besides, you seem to missing the angle I'm going for. I don't give a fuck about the lolis. I just think that him providing those details proves he's a massive edgelord. Adding the "by the way you know that girl he just killed? she has two sisters that are totally dependent on her for food lol. what happened to them? they died because they were worked too hard haha" details cheapens the effect of Arche's death because it makes it feel that he's trying too hard to make it grim and realistic
I think the contract was for 300 gold a person treasure or not. They could have said fuck the contract and split up the gold outside and more than likely gotten more than that per person. I don't know if they were also offered a % of the treasure found or not. Either way I figured that the group with the old man were going to try and fuck off with all the outdoor treasure while they sent everyone inside rather than actually looking for another passage.
>he's trying too hard to make it grim and realistic
I'm not sure you realize it but low magic age poorfag society isn't all sunshine and rainbows
by your logic he shouldn't have shown us that priest being tortured either because apparently giving something a conclusion is edgy
I guess Araki is edgy too cause the kid from part 7 died from a cold
AFAIK they didn't even know the tomb had treasure when they first took the job. They were paid a shitload of money just to check it out.
this happen when shounen kids watch chad big dude seinen
People are hypocrites, especially online. Why do you think otherwise?
That was just his tweet/comment on some site, nothing in the story says:"lol they are slaves/dead now". If you want to or don't know about that comment you can safely imagine them to be alive.
>no reason
It was a self defense situation
>people even caring about this non-issue
Because the author is whiny bitter faggot which shows in his writing. Contrast that with the Slime author who is an easy going and jolly lad and how his story and characters are.
Ainz has a damn happy farm where they skin humans and use healing magic on them, or cut off their limbs and use healing magic one them as a renewable food source, and feed children to starving prisoners while their families look on in horror as their children are eaten. There are really worse fates in this series than being worked to death.
>low magic age poorfag society isn't all sunshine and rainbows
I wouldn't call it low magic. They sell magical refrigerators among other good stuff on the streets. And in Empire it seems to be the nobles and demihumans who got it hard. Arche's parents were lucky to be just stripped of their title but the problem is that the Empire doesn't have a program of taking children away from irresponsible parents and Arche was too dumb/timid to maybe ask the Top Hat Wizard who is said to have valued her and was disappointed with her dropping out to use his influence to make the parents disown Arche and her sisters.
>I guess Araki is edgy too cause the kid from part 7 died from a cold
That, some other things and all those close-ups of the Lucky Nigger's ugly mug especially do confirm that Araki was drawing Part 7 while in a very edgy mood.
For some reason do you have this Face?
Because that Was cool
Gee it's almost like Ainz is insane or something.
But no that couldn't be the incredibly obvious case.
df
>subaru
stopped reading there
I don't think the workers knew the tomb was inhabited at all, plus Ainz doesn't even consider most undead to be the same species as him. Plus he had no qualms about judging others by human standards. He also doesn't give a shit about his own hypocrisy and has no consistency as a result.
LN vs WN, which one is better? I'm reading another WN right now but I'd like to tackle Overlord eventually
eye removal and barbed cock beastman rape
Today's Yea Forums has way too many crossboarders. The whole outrage culture means there's inevitably gonna be a Yea Forums equivalent of those retards on tumblr or whatever that cry all day about anything and everything and repeat every single day as if it's their daily exercise routine. It's literally a part of their habit at this point, an integral factor of their lifestyle. This is not limited to Overlord, but everything.
It's not even about complaining for venting's sake, or trying to actually argue. It's just going through the motions at this point, an addiction to shit posting. Whereas these posters probably first began pretending to be retarded to piss people off and feel better about themselves in their mischief, they are now drug addicts that can't get enough of it.
You can probably get these people to stop playing vidya or watching anime or reading manga or reading light novels for a week or so and they will still not go crazy. But if you make them go a week without acting retarded and posting stupid shit which they now actually genuinely believe, well it's not gonna be pretty.
It's basically a mental illness at this point, one which is very hard for doctors and such to classify or identify because it pertains to the most private aspects of people's lives and more importantly seems harmless at first glance, but if you look at say resetera then you have a shining example of how people who complain so much they internalize it can be a real detriment to reality.
Moderation is always key, and there's no doubt the people on Yea Forums know jack shit about self control given the temptation and ease of (You)s.
The shounenfags bring in their Yea Forums and Yea Forums culture. Just look at the "the great debate" HxH threads that get spammed all the time
The WN of Overlord was scrapped awhile ago and I don't think it was ever even fully translated. May as well forget it exists.
Yes but it's not limited to shounenfags is my point. People simply spend more time complaining than they do the actual activities they complain about. It's weird like that.
If this were say the early 2000s I'm pretty sure the vast majority of the internet bothered to spend more time arguing over stupid shit about let's say a vidya game as opposed to actually playing said vidya game. It was a minority at that point, and people who did that were always put down as autistic and faggots, least of all people who beat a dead horse all day year round.
Like look at say more classical subjects of bitching like shipperfags. They bitch hard sure, and bitch so badly that we can make collages about them, but it's in concentrated doses, it's not steady and consistent as if it's a part of daily life. The ones that do tend to stick to their own blog or go to specialized websites to circle jerk, you'd never say see NaruSakufags make threads daily for 5+ years crying about it, and these people are so emotionally messed up they share photos of them burning up thousands of dollars worth of merchandise and such so they clearly aren't mentally healthy either.
So it's kinda interesting to see such a contrast, even if it's a bit foreboding how messed up the current generation is in the head.
>If someone breaks into my house, man or woman, I'm shooting them all the same. I don't care about their backstory.
Some countries would send you to jail for that amusingly enough under 'excessive force' or whatever.
And preventing that is also an extension of the use of your firearm.
It isn't practical when said countries have literally allowed burglars to sue home owners simply because they tripped on slippery stairs or get bitten by guard dogs and such, let alone being shot at.
>for no reason
3/10 bait made me respond
ez (you)s
This is unironically my favorite episode of Overlord and the only episode I enjoyed out of season 2 and 3. Some of you fags have such shit taste.
Just what exactly is wrong with doing a job solely for money? Is it immoral to maintain your livelihood?
How come some little blond girls get brutally murdered while others get rezzed and spoiled?
>I wonder what would you consider cruel even though Ainz and his followers torture innocent people daily.
There is innocent person being tortured in Nazarick. They just interrogate enemies and criminals for info.
>It's right to kill them because they aren't humans
>Thousands of innocents in the Holy Kingdom
>The people that were abducted from thet Jaldaboath incident in the Re-Estize Kingdom
Collateral damages in war.
>The Workers
Invaders.
>The Sunlight Scripture
Enemy combatants
>Any capital criminals that the Empire sends over as per their treaty with Nazarick
Literal criminals.
Depends on your lively hood. If you got caught selling drugs to childeren and then say: "I did it for the money." That doesn't make you less culpable or despicable. But I guess you can give yourself a clap because at least you didn't do it because you wanted to do irrepairable harm to their devoping bodies or do them harm.
daughterus > oneesans/imoutos
simple as
Because there is literally nothing with strengthening your own nation/tribe at the expense of foreigners/strangers. And Ainz even does all that for a greater good too, the utopia.
It's a fine reason to work. It's just simply not good enough to excuse what they did.
AOG was never at war with the Holy Kingdom and he wasn't at war with Re-Estize when the atrocities in their capital were committed.
kek
but why? It's quite obvious that overlord is very shitty (it's and edgefest escapist fantasy for very immature people) while Konosuba (which is also escapist fantasy for inmature people) doesn't try to take itself seriously, is quite lighth- hearted, and at times it pokes fun at the audience. I see tryhard author vs chill author.
>his emotion-suppression thingy has to kick in to stop him.
That's the point retard. Whenever he becomes too emotional, his emotions get suppressed, making him effective indifferent to everything.
He said on twitter that he's cutting it down to 16 volumes.
>He's incredibly powerful so it's not as if he's in danger if he doesn't go around massacring people
He isn't. The dragon lords are more powerful than him. Neck yourself animeonly.
>And his minions worship him as an unliving god, so it's not as if they'd try to destroy him if he told them to stop torturing humans
He can't possibly know. Believing people just because they say something is the very definition of stupidity.
Casus belli you retarded donkey
Because he's a whiny hack that wrote himself into a corner because he was so busy writing an edgy power fantasy that he forget he needed to writhe a coherent story.
Ainz killed those soldiers to deter their nation from making further retarded suicide attacks. He saved millions of peasants lives here.
>Ainz has no real reason to be an evil bastard
He just goes around conquering the shitty corrupt countries and poorfag demihumans. They're all much better off in the Sorcerous Kingdom and they are treated very well.
>He's incredibly powerful so it's not as if he's in danger if he doesn't go around massacring people
Platinum Dragon Lord, Brightness Dragon Lord, and Deep Darknes Dragon Lord are all stronger than him. PDL is currently investigating him so if Ainz pisses PDL off he is dead. DDDL is asleep in the forest so if Ainz accidentally wakes him up Ainz is dead. No info on where BDL is though.
>his minions worship him as an unliving god, so it's not as if they'd try to destroy him if he told them to stop torturing humans
They could betray him at any moment. The Guardians have already told Ainz that they would chose their own creators over him if they found them. Albedo is even secretly putting together a kill squad to kill all other Supreme Being she finds behing Ainz's back.
Ainz didn't hire the thieves, some nobles did.
She did, her sob story is much more sad than Arche's you speedwatcher.
Arche was just as evil. She was willing to pillage and kill for money.
Not even close. Clementine murdered people and collected their badges because she thought it was funny. Arche does it for a selfless reason. Arche is definitely not evil, I would say. Her actions are still well within violating the NAP, and thus her death was expected.
>her sob story is much more sad
Please refresh my memories, i'd love to hear your fanfiction about this mysterious incredibly sad sob story.
Overlord is a fantasy of a self inserted loser with wishes of Gary Stu, I do not understand why someone with their own ideas and self-esteem would be annoyed to see that illusion of introverted virgins
>with their own ideas and self-esteem
>I don't think the workers knew the tomb was inhabited at all
They knew. They even commented that the entrance was too clean, which meant it was maintained by someone living there.
What do you mean? It was all pretty coherent.
>edgy power fantasy
Oh boy, you didn't see edgy power fantasies if you think Overlord is one.
It's immoral to do unethical job for money, like the hired killers party that Arche belonged to.
>Arche is definitely not evil
Lol, what a retarded animeonly. She is the most evil character in the New World.
>MC is demonic, evil, malicious entity
>all of Yea Forums triggered when he isn't the stereotypical 'bad guy but not really'.
It's a cold war. Both Holy Kingdom and Re-Estize are potential enemies that are ideologically at odd with SKAOG. If Ainz hadn't took any action, it would inevitably turn into a war.
You miss the point completely here. If you can't see that Overlord is just another light heart comedy that makes fun of itself, you aren't the target audience.
Brings up an important point. Ainz has the emotion stunting of being an undead, but prior to entering the game his character has the maximum evil alignment of -500. So evil moralities were very likely implanted deep within him.
Now gas yourself.
>'bad guy but not really'.
I can never understand this trope. What is the point of making a character a sort of demon lord if said character didn't do half of what Nazarick did?
The alignment doesn't do anything other than give him an evil aura and make makes him weak to holy attacks. Ainz isn't very evil but people think he is because he emits a super evil aura do to his -500 karma. PDL is only wary about Ainz in the first place because of his evil aura.
Misunderstanding jokes of course. Are you claiming Angel Densetsu has no appeal? Kitano was literally the demon king of his town.
If the aspects of his character sheet like emotion stunting take effect, why would his karma not take effect?
Would it be equally as edgy if someone kill all of Ainz friends and minions in front of him and forcing him to watch every second of it?
>he killed them for no reason
>no reason
He killed them because they were stupid.
>dur hur get a group of 10 people.
>invite them over to someone elses house to pillage their shit because why not
>we all get shot and killed
It's that land owners fault that we baddies didn't get away with it...
>believing a psycho talking about herself
She's making shit up and laughing about it.
It's practically a Joker reference.
His emotions aren't actually gone though. It's only strong emotions. His character likely has a high intelligence stat, but Ainz is still a brainlet with Elementary level knowledge.
The existence of her elite brother proves she said the truth.
The things that we know about the Slane Theocracy and the fact that what she said about her brother was true hints at the rest of it being true too.
She's still a psycho though.
Intelligence isn't a stat in Overlord. You are only as wise and intelligent as your brain is. Pretending like only parts of his character sheet affect him is silly.
>defending filthy thieves
They got what they deserved
user, the character sheets don't actually show any of the characters' stats. It only shows the class, residence, racial talent, backstory, and alignment. None of these are actual stats, yet we know for a fact that there are stats as they have been mentioned to exist in Yggdrasil. Maruyama just doesn't show them on the character sheets because he is a retard who has never played an MMO before and is basing everything off of his D&D experience.
Oh come on, I just downloaded this man. I thought it was going to be fun.
First of all you are retarded to fall for an obvious bait.
>invite them over to someone elses house to pillage their shit because why not
>house
Maybe because it was dungeon full of evil monsters that are enemies to all humanity? Some things need to be exterminated and you must be retarded to call evil creatures "home owners". Bad guys like ISIS need to be exterminated and soldiers storming their homes aren't treated as "home invaders" and have full right to kill them and take their stuff. Just as adventurers in fantasy world have a right to exterminate monsters even if it means invading their ""homes"". Bad guys don't have rights. It's that simple.
Nice headcanon. Stats can just as easily mean the stuff on the character sheets.
>go to dungeon of evil monsters that are enemies to all humanity
>find leader of evil monsters that are enemies to all humanity
>he is evil, and an enemy to all humanity
WHAT THE FUCK! Why wasn't he a good nice guy who let Arche go?
>job requires to constantly kill
Yeah and she enjoys it
>parents loved brother more
no shit she was most likely always a psycho
>gang raped
Most likely because she was already working for seedy organizations
>screwed up
well if you work for seedy organizations you have no room to cry.
besides all that i severely doubt any of that was real just because the fact that her brother exists is true.
You are an actual brainlet. The earlier character sheets displayed stats. It's only the later character sheets that stopped doing this.
Alright, show me the intelligence stat on the earlier character sheet then, and that is how smart Ainz is. If his strength makes him stronger than he was in real life, his intelligence would make him smarter.
here's the proof right here
I wouldn't call the Black Scripture a seedy organization. Maybe their work range might be large but they are pretty much the country's officially (but secretively) employed adamantine adventurers on steroids.
No, it was right thing for him to do, after all he is evil. I just disagree that they "deserved to die because they were doing wrong things" (because they didn't do anything wrong). It's like when ISIS killed soldiers fighting them - I understand why they were killed but I don't think they did anything wrong for attacking bad guys.
They didn't do anything wrong but were killed by bad guys and that's fine by me because bad guys should kill their enemies.
It is. Don't you see how much fun everyone is having here?
Only three died
1) Killed by Shaltear
2-3) the couple were used as breeding ground for the worst ero which is a tentacle monster.
4) the religous man had his faith and mind entirely broken
>Maybe because it was dungeon full of evil monsters that are enemies to all humanity?
So that's bad? These idiots didn't even have a way to "gouge" the enemies and went in regardless to a place of such evil.
>Some things need to be exterminated and you must be retarded to call evil creatures "home owners".
They are the owners of that dungeon the fuck you talking about?
>Bad guys like ISIS need to be exterminated and soldiers storming their homes aren't treated as "home invaders" and have full right to kill them and take their stuff
So you are not okay with terrorist but you're fully okay with pillagers? lol ok
>Just as adventurers in fantasy world have a right to exterminate monsters even if it means invading their ""homes"". Bad guys don't have rights. It's that simple.
And who is the bad guy here? Oh right the ones that pillaged and lied.
>Just as adventurers in fantasy world have a right to exterminate monsters even if it means invading their ""homes""
Who gives the adventurers the right to make those judgement to play judge, jury and executioner? Themselves? Their guild? Their king? Laughable. ISIS is only deemed as bad guys simply because the world's sole superpower labels them as such, due to the clash of civilization, not because of their actual actions. Otherwise many other states should have been exterminated long before them, for committing much vile atrocities. But who in this show have the same power to judge Ainz? None. He is the superpower here, he is the one who can say who is the good guy and who is the bad guy.
Just because it's an official government organization doesn't mean it can't be seedy and isn't that the exact reason why it's kept secret?
After all they do seedy shit like assassinating good people and killing a shit ton of innocent people.
Not him but they were led there with the promise of riches, if Momomga didn't okay it, they wouldn't even come around knocking.
>karma is a bitch, she deserves punishments for her actions
The same thing is true for Arche.
>invade a monsters dwelling place for selfish reasons then lie to his face
>WOOOOOOOOOOOW HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THEY WERE EVIL?!
Absolutely, she got what she deserved.
Overlord is mostly world-building with the Nazarick cast popping in to fuck things up
Konosuba is mostly wiil-they/won't-they harem shenanigans with small girls.
Kazuma's harassment of the puppet/vengeance priestess was pretty good though.The rest of it is trite garbage that has thrown away the comedy in favour of lewds
The noble promised them that. Ainz didn't even know who that guy was.
Protip: Those who fights ISIS aren't better than them, they are either other terrorists, murderous soldiers of a bloodthirsty dictator, amoral commies or foreign invaders.
>muh isekai needs to be a self insert moral fag who is perfect
i cant comprehend how people dont enjoy papa bones
>assassinating good people
Well, we don't know how often they assassinate good people, their only potential target that we know of was Gazef (because of his strength) and even then they were sent on a more important task.
>killing a shit ton of innocent people
Sunlight Scripture? Sure, though even then their expertise lies with killing a shit ton of nonhumans, innocent or not (they would have been sent as help against the Beastmen attacking the Draconic Kingdom if they weren't wiped out).
Black Scripture? I don't think the Theocracy would risk sending them against no-threats when they are their best defence against stuff far above the strength of normal people, most typical adamantine adventurers included.
The noble was persuaded to do so by Fluder who was persuaded to do so by Ainz who was persuaded to do so by Demiurge.
It pretty clearly states that this was all Demiurge's idea for political reasons(that Ainz okay'd) and it's brought up in later novels as justification for taking land after the 'war' in vol 9. Ainz also viewed the invaders as people sitting on his friends creations, from our view he's just leading them to murder, from his view he's choosing his people and pleasure over theres. That's the whole reason why he even meets them in the area, just to play around with them, and even spares Robberdyke for more experiments. From the start, their lives meant nothing to him except their utility, it's pure selfishness. That's why Ainz is evil, he doesn't consider others outside of Nazarick as having value as living beings outside of their usage to Nazarick.
oh i guess i missremembered and mistook the sunlight with the black scripture.
>Sasuga Demiurgus sama
It goes a bit deeper as I forgot that Fluder persuaded the Emperor to persuade the noble to do so.
Even in Gazef's case, it's debatable if he was really a good person. His loyalty to the incompetent king is what delays the unification of human nations to create a force necessary to defend themselves against non-humans. And the longer the kingdom exists, the more suffering its people have to endure due to the corrupt nobility. You could easily argue he was a great sinner.
Both Fluder, the noble and the workers could choose to refuse. Ainz didn't force them at gun point or anything.
The path to hell is often paved with good intentions.
>That's why Ainz is evil, he doesn't consider others outside of Nazarick as having value as living beings outside of their usage to Nazarick.
Tribalism is a trait of humanity since the dawn of our existence. Are you saying we are all evil?
Beside Ainz tried to choose only most scummy people for this plan, the three elves were actually spared for being innocent. It's not wrong to get rid of evil people. It's Foresight's fault for rubbing him the wrong way and making him think they were evil too.
Then Ainz is a literal saint since he originally wishes no one harm and actually wants to make an utopia.
>Not him but they were led there with the promise of riches
Yeah thus pillaging. They didn't really explore or were doing the right thing.
Also
To grant honors for the operation in Re-Estize, Ainz gathers all of the custom NPCs and strong servants in the Throne Hall. From the convention, Demiurge again emphasizes their final objective: taking over the world and suggests making Nazarick an independent nation.
Not true, while he wants to create an utopia he acknowledges innocents must be sacrificed in the process. He's very grounded in his mediocre abilities and let alone his acceptance of his skeleton form, he's also someone from a vastly different era than us, a dystopian setting that would essentially make North Korea look normal. Gazef on the other hand is that moronic idealist who even in the face of reality still aims for a man's romance so to speak, whereas Ainz is only aiming for that utopia mostly because he can throw everything to his 'kids' and just pretend like he knows what he's doing.
He would never be able to do that in say the side story which is why he doesn't. However, it is in the side story where he, being unfettered as he was, is allowed to pursue that man's romance (along with actual romance despite being a skeleton) of exploring the world and its mysteries, aiming for abstract grandness instead of an objective goal.
He's only ironically a saint to the world on a grand scale once you take in the plus and minus since he possesses a force capable of policing and administrating the world to a better tomorrow, which naturally is what he himself was banking on in the first place. It might sound as dreamy as Gazef's delusions, but it's fully backed by logic and rationality.
Now if Ainz aimed at building his utopian world without sacrificing innocents, that would be acting like Gazef.
>Fluder
He would sell his own mother or son (how he's come to view the emperor) for more magic knowledge. He is pretty amoral and brutal and I never said that he wasn't to blame.
>Ainz didn't force them at gun point or anything
Demiurge didn't too. He just convinced Ainz that it was a good idea even if Ainz was personally against it.
As far as the Workers knew they were just meant to see what's in some newly discovered ruins.
>They didn't really explore or were doing the right thing
That was their mission though, to explore these new ruins. I wouldn't call it pillaging. Everything is possible, but ruins most likely would be inhabited by some nasty spooks, not a family of kind and fluffy owlbears.
Is this the 98783th time this had to be explained?
missing the fun of papa hugges ? is like your dont want to be embraced by papa bones.
It will never end, refer to if you don't understand why.
Hypocrisy leaves bad taste. He was kind on many things, then suddenly goes full edge.
Humans are all hypocrites, anyone who denies it is a hypocrite themselves. People like you just tend to not want to face it because it's like accepting hot girls need to shit and piss.
Yet Shield Hero is 50 times better than this piece of shit Light Novel.
>killing people for lying
Whoa don't drop that edge or someone might get hurt!
Theu violated the NAP. It was Ainz' obligation to murder them, otherwise he wouldn't he able to claim Nazarick is his property
How can he feel no emotions but is loyal as fuck to his gay ass NPCs that he created and his wishful thinking of finding his guildmates? Fuck this author is so inconsistent.
But they weren't proposed the Non-Aggression Pact, how can they violate it?
>killed a bunch of lizard men for no reason other than to make them fear AINZ OOWN GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLL
>invade a monsters dwelling place for selfish reasons
There's nothing wrong with invading monsters. In fact you're doing a world a favor for killing evil creatures.
>And who is the bad guy here? Oh right the ones that pillaged and lied.
You can pillage and lie to a monster / evil organisation (like ISIS)
Of course it's subjective who's evil but as a fellow human I don't mind them attacking monsters. Just as a European I am not sad when I hear some guys from ISIS died. I don't know why you though I was speaking on behalf of evil monsters as well.
>Of course it's subjective who's evil
>In fact you're doing a world a favor for killing evil
>You can pillage and lie to an evil organisation
So basically I can kill and pillage whoever/whatever I want as long as I tell everyone they're evil first?
go away smelly
No you have to strongly believe it yourself that that person is evil. Then you can kill/pillage them with no trouble. I'm sure you'd be convinced in no time that monsters are evil if you lived in that fantasy world where monsters rape and kill humans daily. If you saw that you'd have no trouble hating them and would be willing to kill/pillage them without feeling bad.
So like I said, I can just kill anyone I want as long as I say they're evil, and doing so would make me just and good?
>No you have to strongly believe it yourself that that person is evil. Then you can kill/pillage them with no trouble.
So you condone and respect ISIS.
>monsters rape
Do they? Monster rape doesn't really come up aside from the gobs lusting for their boss or Demi's breeding experiments.
that's not hard, shield hero has and will get an an actual ending without having the author throw constant fits about not wanting to write.
They don't, Overlord treats it quite different than most isekai. The war troll even points out how interracial between a troll and human would be freaky as fuck.
Would Neia be a good girlfriend?
That's because the Shield Hero writer actually enjoys writing, meanwhile Maruyama is a lazy manchild who cries about having to do his job.
correction
>rescued a whole race from inevitable tribal wars starvation and canibalism at the low price of a bunch of warriors.
No. Her words have the power to brainwash people so you would just be one of her mindless slaves worshiping a brainlet skeleton.
Maybe not what the user meant, but in the countries where humans are livestock they might have problems with wanting sex or fucking their chosen partners. Aside from that, I think the Brightness Dragon Lord IS a rapist.
Now I wonder how mortified some of the non-human subjects are from those breeding experiments; being forced to copulate with humans.
He also comments that it's partially because a human woman WILLING to fuck a troll would most likely be a hideous pervert.
>justifying enslaving nigger lizards
Think of Ainz like a autistic kid that spent years on his Minecraft server, it's everything to him. The Tomb means a lot to him, his friends as well. Lying about having knowledge of Ainz's friends was pretty shitty, he's slowly losing his personality and himself in this world and is desperately clinging to the idea he isn't "alone".
There is a farm skinning humans on the daily, I don't think he really gives a shit about humans.
You can if you think the consequinces won't be too grave for you. A lot of assassinations happened (like guys trying to kill hitler etc.) because people thought they were doing a good thing and even threw their life away for their beliefs. But in their world laws allow them to kill monsters so nothings really holds them back.
Respect? No. Understand why they do this? Yes.
The point is monsters normally do horrible things to humans and you can't blame humans for killing/pillaging them.
That's Cocytus you are talking about, not Ainz.
There's literally nothing wrong with enslaving lizards.
>Brightness Dragon Lord
Well him and the Goblin King were the only ones confirmed so far to be able to breed with humans and bare children. I assume that Dwarves and Elf's could also copulate with humans and bare children. Don't know about demons though since Demiurge has been having trouble.
Being unaware of the new world NAP violates the new world NAP.
Time to die, human.
All because Ainz sent him, Cocytus failing was all according to the keikaku didn't you hear the sasugas when Cocytus realized that his failure was planned?
Konosuba is a capitalist isekai.
Overlord is a socialist isekai.
Zaryusu's wife is not only an ugly mutant but also a disgusting brain dead NTR loving whore that instantly assumed that an asexual human skeleton would want to fuck her cloaca after the bitch had sex once.
>The point is monsters normally do horrible things to humans and you can't blame humans for killing/pillaging them.
Not really. It's been mentioned that they mainly eat other stuff and only sometimes eat humans when they don't have food and if the human is weak. Demihumans and even some heteromorphs weren't very aggressive to humans until countries like the Slane Theocracy started genociding them.
At the worst many demihuman countries just humans as slaves which is better than genociding humans which would be pretty easy to do considering the fact that every other country aside from 3 or 4 are all 100% demihuman. Demihumans and heteromorphs make up the majority of the world population yet they don't all go genocide the humans. But the humans sure do seem happy to kill all the demihumans and heteromorphs without remorse.
Doesn't her power only work on traumatized people?
>Respect? No. Understand why they do this? Yes.
It doesn't match up to your point in by that logic there's absolutely nothing wrong from Ainz's perspective. He's no longer human, he has no obligation to think and adopt human morals from the 21st century which he isn't even from in the first place. At most you can only claim that he's evil from the perspective of new world denizens that aren't lucky or smart enough to get on Nazarick's good side and recognize how lowly they are. After all we can see how ECDL essentially acts the same way a tyrant would, but it's natural for him as he sees species like humans as ants, and no human would call another human evil simply for stepping on ants.
Not being able to empathize with Ainz simply because he doesn't favor humanity despite having full access to his perspective only tells everyone you lack the ability to immerse yourself when reading, that your imagination is lacking and that you're far too attached to your own personal values. Any understanding of other perspectives would merely be superficial at best with such a mindset.
That's because it's only at level 2 right now. I'm pretty sure it was said that it can effect more people who aren't traumatized once she levels it up a bit.
His failure was planned, but Nazarick would still have turned all remaining lizards into necromancy material if not for Cocytus's feelings and Demiurge's persuasion as he thought it was a wonderful idea.
>killed a bunch of lizard men
Forgets the whole point of cocytus being taught a valuable lesson.
>I assume that Dwarves and Elf's could also copulate with humans and bare children
Well, yeah. We already have two named half-elves in the series.
>ECDL
Who is this? I've read the LNs but I have no idea what you are talking about. Can you stop it with the abbreviations?
>monsters normally do horrible things to humans and you can't blame humans for killing/pillaging them
Maybe the monsters are doing horrible things because humans are killing and pillaging them. Seemed to be what I gathered from that small gob they found in the forest from another tribe.
Elder Coffin Dragon Lord.
Then the world he created is very unnatural. Hate normally isn't just one-sided and it seems it's just another muh monsters aren't evil and have feelings too!! It's da huuumans who are really evil!!! kind of isekai. The one I dislike the most.
Yes there's nothing wrong from his perspective and that's because he's meant to be evil. I just started replying to anons who for some reason couldn't understand adventurer's perspective - in their case they as well did nothing wrong.
Not really, according to the author the humans would have been long wiped out or reduced to cattle everywhere if not for the players like Six Gods and Eight Greed Kings. And even then their nations are far from the strongest or biggest around. Human fetuses are considered a superb delicacy in the Troll Kingdom.
>turned the stoic elf girl into a bloated bug broodmother
All is forgiven to be desu, that shit's hot as fuck
Lol, so what you're saying is that no matter what kind of LN Overlord is, you'll hate it?
It's not that the demihumans are dindus it's that they used to just kill humans for food when they needed, but then the humans started indiscriminately killing demihumans because "muh religion" which made the surrounding demihuman tribes act more aggressive towards humans. The demihuman nations don't seem to give a shit about the humans though and the Dragon Lords don't give a shit about anything at all unless people get in their way.
Wonder if Hamsuke has a mating call when she goes into heat.

>aqua fags still making bait threads
Don't they have anything better to fucking do?
What would you do to Shalltear?
tell her that Ainz will never love her more than he does every other guardian
encourage her to pad her chest more and more until she falls over and they spill
laff
>massacring lizards to teach one faggot a lesson
Why doesn't Ainz try experimenting with the karma system? If he could figure out how to manipulate it he could change some of the neutral/neutral-evil NPCs to be at least neutral-good which would help when it comes to people who can sense karma like PDL. Many who can sense karma are wary of those who have negative karma.
Wasn't it more for Ainz to see how much free will the guardians have when not given explicit direction? Either way he could have waited a couple of weeks and realized that when Beta misinterpreted his orders; or when Wanko and Nigredo interpreted Ainz's order to show mercy to the innocent as rescue the children from being killed in the happy farm. When Ainz really meant to have them humanly killed.
Neat, I haven't been able to post this in awhile
Entoma is erotic.
>Spider was too early for this show
So sad.
That's a mask, it doesn't change expressions
it's a living mask though, it might have a tiny bit of range, or she might have multiple masks
who cares
learn to how express your thoughts better and have sex
Have sex with me you coward.
Since Maruyama is never going to finish the LN I hope he lets someone else do it.
this is a yikes for me, chief
It wont be the same. Everyone else will want to stick to tropes and ruin the whole thing.
You don't get a say in this.
>karma system
Would becoming mothers make Albedo & Shalltear less evil?
They're all computer characters so what does it matter after he's made sure they weren't actual people?

Some guys just like stability. I guess.
