Winter 2019 Anime: Official Twitter Hashtags & Pages
2018 is almost out, guys and girls, and that means that another anime year is ready to take its place.
Ainz is on his way to becoming a King, the Emperor is definitely a womanizer and there is probably a war coming between Nazarick and the rest of the world. Overlord is becoming very serious, with Ainz meaning business and death as the episodes go by. Will Nazarick finally become its own country by the end of this season?
Japanese Original Episode Title: 舌戦
After the attack of Mare and Aura in the palace, the Emperor agrees to go and meet Ainz, as well as apologize for everything that happened. The Emperor and his men arrive in Nazarick and are welcomed by Yuri Alpha and Lupusregina Beta. With the showcase of their magic casting by changing the weather along with a plethora of Death Knights going around, the Emperor soon understands that Ainz is indeed a powerful man. As they proceed in the throne room to meet Ainz, Emperor Jircniv grasps the fact that Ainz has everything and cannot tempt him or manipulate him easily. As they start their conversation, Demiurge controls their minds in order to make them bow in front of Ainz but is scolded and forced to reverse them to their original state. Jircniv brought the head of the noble that organized the attack as an act of apology, Ainz accepts it and turns the head into another Death Knight. Ainz then asks them to leave since he has no further requests for them, Jircniv then suggests for the Empire to assist him in making Nazarick a country and Ainz agrees. They soon take their leave and Jircniv realizes that Lord Paradyne has betrayed him and works for Ainz. He then sets up a plan to create an Alliance with the nearby kingdoms that will fight against Ainz and save mankind.
Emperor Jircniv: He might look like a small ant compared to Ainz, but his character is probably the most interesting we have seen so far. He looks cunning and manipulative which is definitely going to bring trouble for Ainz. On top of that, he seems to really like women. On his way to Nazarick, he was talking about marriage and how much he hates Princess Renner and the Queen of the Dragon Kingdom and how he would never take them as his bride. At that point, I honestly thought that Ainz might make him marry someone from Nazarick or the Emperor himself would ask something like that but thankfully nothing happened. He also understands Ainz’s power to the point of even considering him a God. It will be very interesting to see him getting smashed by Ainz in the future.
The showcase of power: Ainz really knows how to intimidate his enemies. I mean making the Pleiades use top-tier weather magic, use the legendary undead creatures as workers that move around tables, giving them the perfect drinks, Demiurge messing up with their heads and make them obey him, Ainz creating a Death Knight out of a dead head and in general not asking anything from the person that is considered the most powerful human – the Emperor, really makes you feel like you have no chance against him.
Ainz is always clueless yet badass: It’s amazing how everyone respects him so much and thinks that he is so powerful and wise, but at the end of the day he doesn’t understand anything that is happening and makes Demiurge explain everything in front of the guardians so he can get it as well. You got to love him for that.
The Emperor wanted to bring a gift: In the light novel, Aura and Mare were actually expecting the Emperor to come with them immediately but he asked for ten days in order to prepare for the journey and a gift as an apology. He was given only five and he even failed to give Ainz his gift. He had brought along many pretty women with him to the tomb, all of whom were daughters of important noble families. He intended to gift them as servants or concubines in the hope that one of them would win Ainz’ favor or capture his desire and then they could easily manipulate him. But given how beautiful all of Ainz’ servants were, it didn’t seem likely that Ainz would fall for something like that.
What’s wrong with that girl’s eye? Leinas, the one that cherishes her own safety before the Emperor’s must have something really disgusting under that blonde fridge. I mean what was that gooey gross thing that came out on the tissue?
Lord Paradyne looked like he was really enjoying himself when he was seeing Ainz or Momon showcase of power. Also, I would have preferred Ainz to be called the Supreme King instead of the Sorcery King, but probably our Japanese salaryman is trying to act all humble and nice.
The description of Emperor Jircniv was definitely on point when he said: ‘That place is the Castle of a Demon King with Death sitting on the throne.’ Looking forward to seeing Ainz’s next move.
