i will give you some formula: Anime based on Manga and LN mostly worse than it origin. Usually the more grow on a series episodes or season it will go worse. then lets combine that formula + lack of time
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the lightnovel is soo great that that the anime doesnt do it justice, wha, wha! I am fine as long as I can see my favourite characters though!
Okay here’s a question for the overlord fans here: why the F*** WOULD THEY BUILD UP THIS LITTLE GIRL ONLY TO KILL HER?!?!?! Btw I just got to the episode where the grave robbers of the Tomb of Nazarick have been executed. I just want to know, why? Why did they build up that little girl? Why did they want to break our hearts like that?!?!?! WHAT THE ACTUAL F****?!?!?!?!?!?!? Was there a reason for her to die in the novel? Was she actually hitler in disguise? Or has my favorite character seeking world domination become nothing more than hitler 2.0? I get it, you’ve gotta kill people to become a world ruler yup yup all good. I got that. BUT YOU DON’T JUST KILL CHILDREN UNLESS YOURE HITLER 2.0!!!!!! What. The. Actual. Mother. F(_)cking. F(_)ck.
You talking about arche? in the original WN arche is alive, she became shaltear's anal slave. (Source WN volume 7 alternative Ending).
*spits water all over everything* Anal slave? Maybe? I’m just talking about the young woman that was apart of one of the treasure seekers or workers or whatever they’re called. She was in the group to earn enough money to take her two younger sisters away from their crazy parents. But in the anime she never did and we were treated to a minute or so of the two girls asking when their older sister would come to take them away.
yep thats arche, try searching for the alrenative ending , WN volume 7 edit: shes alive and well. edit2: author probably remove it cause its too much for LN
I thank you for this.... information. I... don’t know what to do with this information now. I’m not sure what was better, her being dead, or her being an anal slave to a female vampire.... I guess I just don’t know what I want anymore....
Web novel is all types of bad and the LN was a step up but i think the editor needs to slap the author a few times because he seems to going off course lately
That's basically there to make ainz more evil. It makes light hearted people care about a side-character only to have her be demolished lol she's a slave now. And who cares tbh, overlord isn't about good natured people in the first place. I mean, ainz doesn't feel anything because his emotions are basically getting dampened because of his race.
No, I totally get that it’s about his journey down the path of world domination. I just cared about that single character since they worked so hard on building her up, only to kill her off. It just felt unsatisfying to me. I can see that this third season has been more about how Ainz becoming less caring for others (I mean he did attack a village that he saved and had been protecting just for essentially fun)
In world of Overlord good and evil are just words used to rally people. Ainz is just indifferent and maybe cold as sometimes he does contemplate whether ruthless action was necessary like when he confessed to the foresight 'intruders' that he wasn't big fan of plan Bait and kill the workers. He doesn't exactly enjoy Massacre but he is knowledgeable and calm enough to know that in the world like Overlord any weakness be it physical strength or mental inability to be decisive will be lead to one's demise. Plus for Ainz his NPC's are like his family , literally. He calls them the kids of his former comrades and for better or worse the NPC's all have personality quite apt for the current world. And remember the empire's Emperor Jirniv supports demi-human slaves, he also saw workers as expendable and was likely aware that some or likely none may survive, he forcefully snatched multiple nobles daughter to be given as gift for Ainz (threatened their entire families for co-operation) and he himself quotes that if he showed a bit weakness then he would have been long dead before he ever became Emperor. Its not exactly Ainz doesn't care about villagers, its just that he never saw them more than a commodity to be used to collect information and carry his inter species peace plan. A scientist MAY mourn death of a Guinea pig due to his experiment but he will definitely replace it with another one swiftly and keep doing it till he gets result, after all from their point of view, be it any outcome even deaths of experiments are just a step towards progress. Plus it also helps that Ainz emotional threshold is controlled and also this world is not his nor are their people plus if inhabitants of the world if ever given chance will rip an Ainz and his NPC to pieces without any questions just coz he is undead and they are demi-humans.
Oh, and lets not forget that his guild was made to be evil. That's the RP he and his friends were doing; Evil masterminds that aren't human. Hence also why all the npc's of nazerick look down upon humans and like to torture them continuously
