    i love how the kingdom is just the definition of failed state in the end most countries understood that there was no point in helping a kingdom that had no power, had basically nothing to offer and was stupid enough to anger a nation thousands of times more powerful

      It took the Japanese half a day to believe the first nuke really removed most of a city.
      And three days later we did it to them again because their leaders absolutely refused to believe it was real. As did a massive portion of the population.
      I can absolutely understand why this could happen.
      You hear that effectively a nations worth of people died in one afternoon to a single spell that created mountain sized demon sheep?
      Or anything else that happens tbh, without video evidence your not gonna buy it for a while.
      So long you end up to far into it to back out.

      @@gitgud7457 I know that there are some beings that can be a threat (for starters the true Dragon Lords), but these creatures are so rare, that aren't an issue the mayority of time, and even if a true dragon lord can in fact kill a player like Ainz, it turns out that Ainz has several Boss level monsters always around him and even in the rare situation where a dragon Lord could ambush Ainz alone, Ainz is not weak and have a lot of tricks up his sleeves so still Ainz and co can go around unchallenged 99% of the time.

      @@animeturnMMD Sure but it's untrue that they don't take any threat seriously at all. The Dragon Lords can actually kill them. Also, what do you mean by "boss level monsters"?

      @@gitgud7457 They are weaker than Ainz because bone daddy is more resourceful, but in raw power they are stronger than Ainz specially Albedo and her mysterious sister. (Remember how Ainz had to cheat with Shalltear to kill her in the first season, and by cheat I mean use powerful items that create an external factor which destabilized and countered Shaltear's combat style).
      I have never said that they don't take threat seriously, actually Ainz take it too seriosly, but it is rare for dragon lords to directly intervene like it happened at the end of the current anime season, so the rest of the time they are almost untouchable.

    As someone who is up to date on the entire LN series, I didn’t realize how bad off the Kingdom was to begin with until watching your videos.
    I realize now how biased I was in favor of the Kingdom when I was first introduced to them in the story. Like, in most books/stories, the first people or group you meet in a new world are your future allies. And the fact that Ainz worked/defended Gazef and the fact that they had the typical noble society that so many manga and anime tend to favor definitely reinforced that.
    But then Maruyama made that society realistic- showing the realities of such a structure. The way things turned out by the end of Vol 14 were perfectly logical but not what a lot of people expected because of all those biases. Goes to show the strong sense of cause and effect the author has and their commitment to worldbuilding. Love it.

      @Deng73 2 роки тому +32

      There's actually quite a problem with numbers in this video. Normally, Kingdom can conscript only from about 100k to 250k, 300k max - anything more and it's agricultural economy will be axed. 500k-600k is EXTREMELY unusual case that would be enacted only in a state of emergency, such as SPOLERS (for more on that check vol.14 of the LN).
      Furthermore, numbers of conscripts from each noble are not especially correct too. One impoverished noble - a small baron with one or two settlements under his thumb, for example - can rally about few dozens of people, not a hundred. Meanwhile, those nobles who have more influence, wealth, land, etc. can bring with them from a thousand to few thousands - not 50k (wich was slightly less than a whole wing of the Kingdom's army at the ba... massacre of the Katze Plains). Royal army is really just a huge pile of barely battle-worthy people mishmashed together by a swarm of lazy stupid nobles.

    It's not surprising that the Re-Estize Kingdom was annihilated after Season 4 or Volume 14 of the Light Novel. The Massacre at the Coates Plains pretty much obliterated the Kingdom's military and whatever was left wasn't much to stand up against Nazarick. Overall, considering the corruption and everything else, it might have been the right choice to simply wipe the Kingdom out of existence, rather than take over and rebuild it from scratch. So, I guess in one point of view, Phillip's idiocy which caused Nazarick to declare war on the Kingdom, allowed the Kingdom to meet its end quickly, rather than slowly fall apart.

The princess ultimately kills her own father to prove her loyalty. because ainz declares war on the kingdom because one idiot attacked supplies. she is rewarded for her efforts by class changing to an imp (it's suspected by the overlord community that she's working her way to be come a succubus like albedo and imp is the first step to that) and has climb brought back to life cos ainz killed him in a duel. She then tricks climb into changing as well so they could be together forever and likely now bangs him every chance she gets.
