@@mickeyrace873 You aren't wrong, however I do still think that making your opponents suffer as much as possible is in a way comparable to playing with your food.
@@marcovalencia146 if the opponent was actually a threat I bet demiurge would stop pulling his punches. As it stands no one he has faced has been worthy of him actually exerting effort.
Aura and Shalltear bicker all the time but they also have moments when they really get along, I don't even think they know that their creators were siblings or they'd view each other sort of like cousins
yet, Shalltear is a huge liability to everyone. See how Blood Frenzy was the ultimate cause of her downfall? The real problem is different, though. A Shalltear gone rogue is close to impossible to handle safely. What Ainz managed to pull, worked once. Now Shalltear knows what are the weaknesses Ainz exploited to kill her.
@@inverse2k1 imagine if shalltear wasn't frozen like a raid boss and just attacked ainz on sight, preventing him from using buffs. That would actually harm him tbh
People may think Shalltear is a bit of dunce here. But it's just because there are beings like Albedo and Demiurge around. According to this scene in the light novels, her processing speed is still faster than human. She was able to take note of every word she has heard. Maybe if she can apply herself to study , she'll be smarter way faster than anyone except the Nazarick npcs.
I mean to be fair he role was always purely combat oriented until this point. Demiurge and Albedo had non combat responsibilities to help them grow. Its now a question of IF Shaltear can be smart but more that she did not really have a reason until now.
That's a good example of how processing speed alone doesn't equate to intelligence. It requires more than that. Shalltear's mind may work faster than a human but it operates less efficiently compared to a mind with greater intelligence. Think of an older CPU running an efficient algorithm compared to a faster one but it's running a slower algorithm.
It's mostly her (lack of) backstory, and the lack of any logical consistency to her build. Shalltear's build is pure, nonsensical optimization, so provides her with nothing intelligible to fall back on, and her bio is just her creator copying and pasting his favorite porn tags. Because The New World runs on real world logic instead of abstracted game logic, characters built with thematic consistency supplemented by appropriate backstory work the best (See: Demiurge. By far the weakest floor guardian/level 100 character in Nazarick, with an utterly deficient, mechanically horrific build that legitimately might lose to some of the Pleides, that was made as a pure vanity and creativity project, who has become the single most effective person in Nazerick at getting stuff done because every single i was dotted, and every single t crossed to make the art project work), while purely mechanical characters flounder a bit because of the complete lack of common sense adaptability they have, with Shaltear being the worst case, being designed as an unparalleled, minmaxed 1v1 specialist, who regularly has to be held back because of her inability to handle most situations that aren't pure combat.
shalltear is a great example why Overlord can get away with having an unchanging OP character but the story remain interesting. it isn't Ainz that get character development, it's everyone around him. Shalltear learned to not be so arrogant, Cocytus learned to be proactive and decisive, Enri and Nfirea went through their own little arc of stepping up being stronger for each other.
Spoilers in Holy Kingdom Arc. Ainz: Everyone! Look at this powerful runecrafted bow I lend to Neia! It can hurt even Jaldabaoth. Jaldabaoth: Oh no! That bow nearly finished me off, that was close. Neia: Nah, Imma worship justice instead.
I wonder what level and quality that sword actually was in Yggdrasil standards. I doubt he would just pull out a literal weapon of the gods that's effectively unobtainable in the new world and would just make the dwarfs fear that they will never achieve it. Better to pull out something mid level in a world of low levels to not discourage them.
It’s an incredibly low level weapon (by his standards) and it doesn’t even actually use runes, it’s a reskin he paid for. The dwarves have little chance of actually replicating it, solely because it doesn’t even function the way they assumed.

qeustion, does shalltear japanese voice speak in like a dialect or something? because i swear to god she has these constantly recurring sylables near the end of every sentence in her speech i dont hear back in any other character in any show ive watched
I might be wrong, but iirc, she's basically using a very old and formal speech used by geishas back in the edo period. It's kinda like using 'shan't' instead of 'will not'
It's でありんす/"de arinsu", which is indeed related to Edo period and especially prostitutes. It's basically a "tick"; Japan adds a "copula" that's often translated as "be" in many sentences to the end, and hers is different from the typical "da" in futsukei/"direct speech" or "desu" in teineigo/polite language (it also has different variants for very polite language, written language, dialects, other archaisms, etc. and media makes extensive use of these to differentiate between characters and to inform of their characteristics).
