Idk if you know but betterhelp is partnered with Isreal. Not a great look for them and not too good for people who accept their offers. Plus they've had problems with patient data. No hate, just wanted to make sure you're aware
Super tier magic is the highest tier magic And world rank items are the strongest items that you could find and also the rarest If you remember the game name is yegdrasel? It's essentially the world tree and those items are made from it's fallen branches and it is said to be able to destroy the world Also I am not sure if it's a specific one or if all of them can do this but in the game world tier items could delete characters from the server And that's Momonga's guild is considered one of the strongest is because they were able to keep a lot of these items
World items has the power to change the world not destroy it and they had restrictions for example the world-item that could delete a players character had the restriction that the user would also get deleted (if I remember correctly)@@MassiF-z7v
You need the context of why it is so sad, you will see in the real world of Satouro that it is the year 2138, the world is in decline, there is no food, there are no plants, it is so contaminated that in order to leave You have to put on a radiation suit, why is it important because unlike all the other isekais protagonists, Ainz was not a geek but rather worked just like all the others Supreme beings who were not children but functional lords of society. It is not that Satouro wanted to be playing all day but that for all people the game was the way to avoid In reality, the example is blue planet, which Ainz mentions in chapter 2, saying that if he had been transported, he is the one the world would love the most since his dream was to see a real tree, that's why In the game he loved seeing the plants in the game etc.When Ainz says that Nazarick is his world, he is not lying, it was everything for him and his friends, due to different things, they could no longer continue.
Yes, he did kill them because he didn't want them to report back on anything that happened during the retrieval of Shalltear. The other Adventurers were basically an information liability. Edit: Pandora's actor was made when Momonga was younger. At this time he had a bit of an obsession with WW2 Germany which lead to the creation of Pandora's Actor. He eventually grew out of this phase and kept Pandora's Actor hidden in the treasury. It is also worth noting that most of the other guardians in the novels are jealous of him since their creators left while Momonga stayed.
In the LN it's much more detailed, they ride to the forest, make comments on Hamsuke, Nabe's golem horse, etc. They describe their leader's flaws with his temper. When they reach the forest, Albedo reveal herself and hunts them down with Mare. Ainz did warn them to stay home, so they couldn't know he was undead and his link to Shalltear.
Shaltier was created to be as battle efficient as possible, she is a a true specialist in battles. That's why she is the guardian of the first 3 floors of Nazarick. And she is specially designed to counter Momonga because her creator and (Peroronchino) and Momonga where good friends, so he created her like this to taunt Momonga (friendly bander :) ) Super tier magic is above 10th level, like magic that surpasses all expectations, but still magic within the game World items on the other hand are exactly what you said. Admin items. They overwrite game rules exactly as an admin in a game can. Without following game principles and rules. They are the rarest and most difficult artifacts to obtain :)
Which you wouldn't know looking at Ainz who just waltzes into his vault with a laundry list of world items he wants pulled out and, y'know, is a frickin' walking world item himself (his orb). It's crazy what a flex that is in context.
He said to the adventurers, when you come you die. He cant let them live because he cant defeat shalltear as momon but only as Ains. he cant let them live, because shalltear is a subordinate of nazarik. It was literally to keep his Identity and Nazarik safe.
@@doublehit9165 They exit but can be unreliable, he was willing to use it on the village girls to remove the memory of his face being a skeleton, but doing the same to high level (well, for humans) adventurers and expecting it to last? Not worth the risk.
@@doublehit9165 Memory magic is extremely costly to use. Using it in that situation would be too dangerous and foolish compared to simply killing them.
there is a set of 3 bunny related spells - each spell does something different. Rabbit Ears: A 1st tier spell that increases the caster's hearing. Rabbit Foot: A 1st tier spell that Increases the caster's luck. Bunny Tail: Decreases aggression towards the caster. Rabbit Ears/Rabbit Foot/Bunny Tail: If a female character activates these three magics at the same time, it changes her clothes into a bunny girl outfit. --- she is using the bunny ears for spying on surrounding outside the room. (she has all 3 spells ofcs) tabula smaragdina is vaguely based on the mind flayers from dnd.
Pandora's Actor is basically created when he's still in his cringe phase. Once he outgrew that he felt so embarrassed every time he sees over the top act so he pretty much just locked him in the treasury.
This post is made in the spirit of fun discussion. It contains no spoilers to the animated series. So, now that the show brought up World Items, let’s do a brief overview of them. Note: we will *NOT* talk too much about them, because a lot of the info known about world items involves spoilers. Even if certain facts about world items in the New World have only been mentioned in the novels up to this point, there is a good chance those facts will come into play in the final seasons of Overlord, so I urge the comment section to exercise caution in any discussions. This comment is made solely to give the idea of what world items are capable of. There is a lot of lore to the back story, most of which doesn’t matter, so let’s just summarize: world items allow players an insane level of power in the game, so much so that they could even change the game world and the game mechanics for everyone who played. There were 200 world items, though not all had been discovered because they were extremely well hidden. Some were one-time only use, meaning you would have to find it again if you wanted to use it twice. A player or guild who found one went to great lengths to hide the fact, because they would be a huge target to every other player looking to steal it. When the guild Ainz Ooal Gown was forming, only 50 items were known about by the players. Info about them was only known because of spying, espionage and leaks by players who were quitting the game. The only way to protect against a world item’s effect is to either, A.) Have another world item in your possession, or, B.) Be changed to a very specific unique job class that could protect against it. The guild was protected by attacks from other players using world items because they stored a world item in their base. Of the 200 world items, there were 20, simply called “The Twenty”, that were considered so powerful that they could totally break the game. The guild staff that Ainz carries is not a world item, because it was created by the players in his guild. However, it was made by combining numerous God Tier level items, so it’s power is comparable to a world item. So let’s look at a few examples of world items. Remember, we will not discuss any world items that could be linked to info that ends up being spoiler. *Five Elements Overcoming:* (one of the twenty). Has the power to let a player request that the developers change the game’s magic system. *Ouroboros:* (one of the twenty). Has the power to let a player request that the developers change numerous mechanics of the game, even beyond what Five Elements Overcoming can. *World Savior:* (one of the twenty). A club that is actually very weak at the start. But can be continuously powered up with use. Its power level could become so high that it could defeat the entire combined strength of all of Ainz Ooal Gown’s members. *Longinous:* (one of the twenty). Its user can sacrifice his own existence to remove ANY target from existence as well. No resurrection magics could restore the user’s data, ever, (except possibly by another world item). Note: if someone used it on an NPC in the Tomb of Nazarick, the NPC would be destroyed and the tomb’s maximum allowed NPC level would drop. Further note: guilds with a large enough base were allowed to create NPCs with a total combined level of 700, (with max per NPC being 100). However, you could increase the maximum allowed level with cash shop items, a world item, or special quests the guild leader had to complete. Since every Ainz Ooal Gown member was required to have a job IRL, it’s implied they bought lots of cash shop upgrades. The extremely high NPC maximum level in Nazarick is a special feature of the guild’s home base, and one of the reasons their base remained undefeated by raids. *Unknown Item:* Allows the user to turn himself into a World Level Enemy, enemies that level break and are considered a threat to the whole world of the game. A champion in the realm of Musplheim used it to become one of Lords of the Seven Deadly Sins, considered some of the most extreme enemies of the game. It made him so powerful he could fight 30 max level players evenly. *Throne of Kings:* The throne that Ainz sits on when acting as the Overlord. Located on the 10th floor of Nazarick. This is probably the world item that defends the tomb from other world item attacks and even prevents enemy information magics from spying inside. When sat on, it provides the user an unknown buff, and also allows the user to monitor the stats and situations of all of his allies within the tomb. This is why you often see Ainz sitting on the throne when he is studying the NPC charts and stat lists.
let me just add a few touches to this wall of text... very nicely put btw... World Items and Super Tier Magic are 2 different systems... so in simpler terms... Items are ranked just like any other MMO would... like Uncommon, Rare, Epic or Legendary rank items... in Yggdrasil the order goes like this -> Low, Medium, High, Top, Legacy, Relic, Legendary, Divine and finally World Level IIRC Nazarick has 11 World Items out of the few that are actually known making them the Guild with the Highest Number of World items in Yggdrasil... Now for the Magic System... its very simple ... 1st tier being the lowest tier and 11th tier being the highest... Note that 0th tier magic exists but only in the "New World" and it did not exist in Yggdrasil... now you might be asking .. isnt 10th tier the highest? nahh.. 11th tier is just Super Tier Magic .. what differentiates 0th-10th tier magic from Super Tier Magic is that normal magic u need MP or more commonly known as Mana to Cast..meaning u can spam it whenever its of Cooldown and you have Mana to cast it... its also pretty quick to cast... Super Tier Magic however isnt like the normal tier magic because it does not require Mana to cast but EXP.. yes.. the EXP you grind by killing mobs or by doing quests... u cant spam it and its casting time is atrocious... however the results are nothing compared to 10th tier magic... i could go over magic enchantments ( like u probably already noticed in some lines in the anime like "Twin Maximize Magic" or "Triplet" or "Boosted") but in short terms... it allows the magic you are about to cast differentiate slightly from the "Vanilla" spell... Lets imagine you want to cast a simple Fire Ball... u simply say "Fire Ball" and a fire ball appears out of your ass like rainbows do when unicorns fart... however if u say "Twin Fire Ball" ... 2 Fire Balls appear instead of 1... or if said spell normally would cast.. lets say 5 fire balls.. Twin Fire Ball would cast 10 instead... or if u want a spell to Deal its Maximum amount of damage.. since spells have ranges in terms of damage .. like a fire ball dealing between 75-100 damage... by saying Maximize Fire ball it would cast said fire ball at 100 damage always...
@@quantumphayer One edit: the Twin/Triplet enhancements only work on spells that normally create only one object/projectile, so it would not work on your Quint Fire Ball spell (or, to use a D&D example, Meteor Swarm) as they normally create more than one projectile, nor would it work on a spell that does not create an object/projectile, like Grasp Heart or Negative Burst.
I could probably look this up but you guys seem to know your stuff.... I have a question about the world Items. Are there more than one specific world item? Like for example could multiple guilds have an Ouroboros? Or is there only 1 Ouroboros item in the game/server?
Only one. According to the lore, they were made from the remains of the leaves on the World Tree Yggdrasil after a dragon ate all the rest. So world items are unique.
Quick details on missing informations or confused bits! - The Gardian of the treasury is Pandora's Actor (PA). Yuri is the Pleaides Maid, 2nd in command & Dullahan race. Background informations on World Level Items (WI): - There were 200 World Items back in Yggdrasil. - Each Leaf on the Tree represents a World, and each World was associated with a World Item. So, each of the 200 World Items has the power of a World behind it. - When Ainz was talking about the Twenty (20), he was referencing a specific category of those 200 World Items. Those are the ''Strongest'', so strong in fact, that they are One-use items only. He's implying that one of those in the possession of Nazarick could free Shalltear from her mind control. - Ainz is afraid to lose a One-use trump card, now that he knows there is other World Items in the New World. Therefore, he prefers to fight Shalltear, and resurrect her afterwards as an NPC. - Nazarick has 11 World Items in total, the most of any Guild back in Yggdrasil. At least one of them is a Twenty. The Guild that had the 2nd most World Items had 3. - World Items are Absolute in power (Game breaking), so above the effects of Super or 10th Tier magic. This is why the ring failed to dispel the mind control on Shalltear. - The only way to protect yourself from the effect of a World Item, is to yourself own/equip a World Item. This is why Ainz goes to the treasury and takes them out, to give them to the Gardians, his strongest NPCs (most are Lv. 100 like himself). If Shalltear had worn a World Item when she was attacked, the mind control effect would have failed. Shalltear's Strength: Of all the Guardians, Shalltear is considered the strongest fighter. That's mostly why she is guarding 3 floors by herself. She was created by Peroroncino. She's optimized for combat, and uses holy magic, which is very effective against the undead. When you compare her build to Ainz, which didn't pursue pure power, but instead went for a ''Death roleplay'' build, there's no doubt he's weaker.
7:15 The thing is, this is basically a roleplay account for Ainz where he just wanted to have some fun as an evil lich. He never went for an actually optimized build or seriously tried to be the strongest. Imagine what he would be if he was playing competetively XD
I think touch me was the strongest in the guild right? Or on of the top 3 at least. Momonga is like top 5 strongest just because of the amount of spells he knows.
SPOILERS LUKE DONT READ touch me was one of the champions on the game meaning he is one of the best player in all yggdrasil in the guild he was the "strongest" but that is also kinda difficult to say when the creator of demiurge had one of the most destructive spells @@GabrielRojasAhumada
@@XeosLolicon Touch me is strongest in the server ygdrassill servers are named after worlds on the norse world tree only strongest in the server can get world champion class
@@XeosLolicon MORE SPOILERS!!!! Touch Me was World Champion class, which is a class only people who won a specific PvP tournament could take levels in, and only 1 person in each server/world of Yggdrasil could earn this title. A cross-server tournament of these World Champions was held, and Touch Me came in 3rd (I think), making him the 3rd strongest player IN THE WHOLE GAME.
29:31 I don't think it's ever explicitly stated in the anime, but Albedo is actually speced as a tank. She has the highest HP and defense of all the guardians. Shalltear, on the other hand, is a DPS monster. A fight between them would basically be a stalemate.
well no, Shalltear would win, Albedo doesn't have the means to put Shalltear down, nor does Shalltear, so it becomes a battle of attrition, and on top of being an undead that doesn't require sleep, Shalltear has life-steal, Albedo is possibly the worst matchup against Shalltear among the guardians (excepting Victim of course), which I would imagine irks her to no end
pretty sure Shalltear mentioned she would beat any other guardians in a 1v1, the book they talked about Cocyutus, Albedo and Sebas being rock paper scissors against each other but Shalltear could almost/maybe 1v3 them
@@chrisk3127if I am remembering it correctly, Cocyutus has the knowledge to use all of the supreme being’s weapons, so if he got the permission from Aniz, he may got a chance to win Shalltear?
@Daniel-vc3ny I dont remember if he has skills for non swords? only one he would probably want to use is his creators unless Ainz ordered him, pretty sure shalltear would demolish him still all she needs to do is stay at range and hit him with magic
@@chrisk3127 Just googled and I am right about that, Cocyutus’s creator did teach him how to use all of the supreme being’s weapon. Shalltear is still the strongest 1on1 fighter, but I do think that with the help of those world items, Cocyutus could give her a great fight.
When Albedo speaks about Pandora's Actor (or PA as the comunity also calls him) being one of the smartest people in Nazarik, she means aside from him Demiurge (a millitary expert) and herself who manages "Human" resources. PA is actually in charge of coin expenditure and keeping magic items in check (he loves to polish and take care of them as Ainz programed him to) Also, about the "strongest" part, Shalltear is the strongest 1v1 NPC, while Albedo is the tankiest NPC, but her strenght is lower. There also exist a rock paper scisor power relationship between Albedo (Tank), Sebas (ballanced fighter) and Cocytus (The big blue bug, a perfect glass cannon)
SPOILER(?): there also exists Rubedo who supposedly is even more "powerfull", whether or not that directly connects to fighting strengh I'm not sure though. It is highly speculated that she was created using a world-item. (Though she is very much a mystery even in the LNs)
Oh yes...I was also shocked when I saw Tabula Smaragdina. A very interesting character with strange hobbies. As a mage, by the way, he was stronger than Momonga. His race (apparently) were a mindflayer.
Basic explanation of the magic system: Tear magic: This ranges from 1 to 10 and consume mana. Super tear magic: It does not consume magic and is far more powerful. However the acquisition of such spells is more limited. Super tear also takes a long time to cast and can be interrupted in battle. Usually the caster needs a tank or team to guard them while casting. When the super tear is either cast or interrupted, the spell can't be cast again that day. There are exceptions and situations to change all this, but I'm sticking to the basics. World items: These are items with game breaking effects. Usually one use items. Basically nukes of last resort. In the Ygdrasil game, there existed 200, yet during the game's whole run time, only 50 were ever discovered. As an example, here are two that aren't shown in the series. A world item that permanently deletes your own character along with any one other player character or NPC you chose in the entire game. No resurrection. No respawn. Just gone. Another item caused a world wide attack on all evil NPCs and Players in the game.
Ainz played the game for a long time, he created Pandora's Actor when he was younger and is kind of embarrassed by the way he acts now since it reflects on what he thought was cool back then. He kind of acts like the usual trope you may be familiar with... 'you dare unseal the power of my demonic eye?!' lol Albedo got emotional because Ainz so casually stated he would put a statue of himself in the MAUSOLEUM which would usually mean he expected to leave them. To him it was just finishing his project, but to her and the other denizens of Nazarick that is tantamount to their entire worlds crumbling apart around them.... Ainz is all they have. Albedo is pretty strong, but she's a tank class.
18:29 Yes, that is Mamoru Miyano, the voice actor for Ookabe Rintarou, aka Hyouin Kyouma, aka Okarin from Steins;Gate xD And also, Kira/Light Yagami from Death Note
Shalltear creator made her for pure combat. Minmaxed her build and stats. Everyone else made their guardians with a role play idea in mind and their builds reflects that. They're all strong but Shalltear was made for purely pvp.
Answering Questions: 5:05 for some reason blue or Silver hair is often translated from Japanese to English as "blond" in anime its a bit weird and Im not sure why. 5:49 The silver-haired older man at the head of the table is the "Guild Master" of E-rantel so he mostly decides the ranking, though for going above Mythril, He might need to notify a higher authority as well ( unsure on that point) 6:35 yeah Ainz just made up a story for a fictional vampire that he has a connection too 7:50 yes that describes Momonga/Ainz though he is humble and tends to rate himself conservatively, however, it is unclear how smart he was in the game compared to other players vs how much his psyche may have been altered in The New World by living so long as an undead 9:20 Yeah Ainz just killed them because he told them that if they came with him "they would definately die" implying they were too weak to face the opponent. They insisted on coming anyway so he killed them, cause he can't have anyone else see his interactions with Shaltear and killing that team was the easiest way to deal with the issue. The scene was dramatically cut from the novel though, which included conversations with the other members of his party. 17:35 All the members of the Guild Ainz Ooal Gown played nonhuman "heteromorph characters" It was one of the requirements to join. The other requirement was to have employment in the real world 19:05 Ainz has become embarassed by both his own creation and the old self that created him. Its like looking at your writings/ artwork from several years ago and now finding it cringe 25:25 They are NPcs with full personalities which are often quite evil, but at the same time they are children desperate to keep their creator/parent around. Its a weird dichotamy 26:50 There are 200 World items in the entire, 20 of which are known as the "1 of 20" which disappear after a single use to a random place in the world. All 29:30 Albedo is the Overseer of the guardians but she is not the strongest, She merely has the strongest Defense. Shaltear is the strongest in a 1 on 1 Dual. 33:50 Yeah its seems that if she was mind-controlled the user could have ordered shaltear to do anything, however, instead it seems she has simply been left at the scene of the battle with no orders acting like a game npc. This might have something to do with Shaltear's final attack that at minimum seriously injured the woman that launched the attack.
As a former leader and creator of a guild called "Fluffy Stuffies" this episode hit me right in the feels when it first aired. We founded the guild when us 3 founding members suddenly ran across each other farming sheep for mats and decided to team up to make it more fun (hence the guild name). Over the years we grew from 3 to 58 members. Those happy days playing and hanging around with my mates are memories I will never forget. As was the sad day I decided to disband the guild as the last active member. Everyone else had already moved on to other games. I just could never bring myself to recruit new people because those we had lost over the years could never be replaced 😢
a little bit about the strength of the NPCs: Albedo has the highest defense, and there is also Cocytus - he has the highest physical attack, and there is Sebas Tian, he has these characteristics much lower, but he breaks through armor with it. They can be said to be like rock paper scissors.But Shalltear has such a set of abilities and items that she is strong against a crowd of enemies, and at the same time can cope 1 on 1 with a strong opponent
Yup, Luke, you're 100% right. Pandora's Actor is Mamoru Miyano. He's both Okabe in Stein's Gate and Light from Death Note although my favorite role of his has to be his role in Zombie Land Saga.
Also, there isn't only Twenty World items, but 200, the Twenty part reffers to twenty single use World level items, one of which allowed the people of the New World use the Tier magic system
little fun fact for pandoras actor across the other dubs: In english he makes the same "suddenly speaking german" joke as he does in japanese however in german dub that obviously doesnt work so instead of that they had him misspronounce Nazarik as Na'zi-rick
Read the novel, the reality of their world will tell you why Momonga and his friends characters look the way they look and why their creations are made in such a way. I find the fantasy world that Momonga has been put in is far more a better living condition than the real world he used to be in...
No spoilers but about the guardian's strength, it's like in a PVP game with classes Albeto is a tank, very resistance and almost immune to effects so she can keep protecting whoever is left if the enemy reach the last floor Cocytus is a DPS of the highest caliber, with 4 arms he can deal insane amounts of damage very quickly Sebas is a hybrid with good defense and attack Shalltears is a Combat Optimized class, she can deal a lot of damage, while being a tank, also has life steal, so she can keep fight for a long time. Aura is a ranger with her Pets and have scout and ranged skills Mare is a AOE Mage, with some control magic, from simple shield to earthquakes and tornados Ainz just like Demiurge is a Summoner, Most of his better spells are summoning magic. Unless Ainz uses EXP to summon things of lvl 90 most things would be useless against shalltears that can heal by attacking his minions.
About Shalltear's mind control, and I don't know if it's considered a spoiler or not (if it is, it's nothing big anyway) or if it is even explained later, but the party that encountered her started doing the mind control spell with a world item but Shalltear stabbed the one doing it so the spell was not completed while the others fled. And also they don't have to be a player to use world items; do you remember the talent Nphirea had that allows him to use any magic item despite being very weak himself?
As a long time gamer you really can't help but get a little emotional about the comrades that slowly disappear, there was a day when all the boys said "talk to ya later, see ya tomorrow, etc." and then you never end up talking to them again. I really do miss those those good old days.
An easy way to think of it is thay Ainz is a role play build and Shalter is a min maxed character. BTW, world items are the greatest source of power in this world.
You can get a peek at the characters from last episode in the opening. Right when ainz turns around and before the scene is the laughing skull you can see them
There were several players in the guild that were top tier pkers. Momonga just had a very specific almost roleplay build that gives him a massive variety of spells, and high defense. I think the spell limit was like 300 normally but he has over 800 through his build.
Fun fact: Ains (Momonga) being the Lich race, was one of the most NORMAL looking or the founding members of the guild. One of the requirements was being a non-human, and even normal-looking ones like Touch Me were actually under cosmetic spells or armor to have that appearance. Momonga used his base body shape andd looked normal, but Bukubuku was a slime (or the top tier version of that race) and Peroroncino was a bird person resembling Horus from egyptian mythology.
Ainz needs to deal with Shaltear personally. He doesn't need people getting in the way, and he doesn't want people to know she's one of his subordinates! So yes he killed them!
The stuff about the strongest NPC changed a lot in the beginning, now most of the stronger fighter NPCs are in a rock paper scissor relationship and the clear strongest one is Albedo and Nigredo's (Albedo's older sister) younger sister Rubedo who the guild members created in collective effort to create something so broken in the game that it can beat TouchMe in a 1v1 without being a raid boss.
The scene in the mausuleum always gets me, to the NPC, all their gods were gone, now Albedo even have witnessed their tombs, she is in shock realizing how godless they really are, and then, Ainz jokingly talks about his future grave... Albedo couldnt take it anymore, neighter would any of the NPCs, is truly tragic how hopeless she felt at the posibility of her last god abandoned them, even if it is for a greater good or natural cause and he seems fine with it, being completly departed from their creators truly hurts them.
Since I didn't see anyone else explaining it, I will add that the ring that Ains uses, takes great inspiration from D&D's ring of 3 wishes. YOu have 3 wishes that can be fulfilled, with certain limitations. It's one of the most precious items for non legendary characters, under level 20
24:34 The English dud in this anime did such a good job that it managed to make me cry during this scene, now I'm tearing again while watching your reaction 😢
Really enjoyed the video. Would love to see you reacting to the official arts of the Supreme Beings and their known stats. If I'm not wrong, the one who made the art is the same person who made the art for the overlord endings.
fun fact #3: In the game Yggdrasil (eeg-drah-sil) one of the primary features was the customizable game code that allowed players great range of flexibility to alter things, create items or NPCs, and bend the rules slightly. One of the ways to do this was through World Items, which were far superior to any other item because they overrule any of the actual gameworld mechanics by definition. That effect makes them literally reality-bending when they carried over to the new world
Yuri was the battlemaid the soldier dude is Pandoras actor and the reason he wants to kill shalltear is so he can ressurect her without status effects as shes an undead.
That's very correct. The role of pandora's actor is Mamoru Miyano, who plays the main character "Rintaro Okabe" of "STEINS;GATE". Pandora's is highly popular due to its high ability as an actor and Miyano's unique acting skills.
Can't wait for him to post the video of him finishing Season 1 and all the people waiting to tell him what's going on come swarming in and make Luke even more confused than he is already.
don't forget that it was talked about EARLY in the first eps, that to be a member of the guild they had rules and one of the rules was had to NONE HUMAN
Some lore concerning world items that is slightly expanded on in later episodes but way more expanded on in books or other material World items were the top of what was possibly obtainable in the game of Yggdrasil and were all unique items in both effect and obtainability. They are also at the top of power scaling of the entire game meaning that they can and will nullify any ability or affect of a lower tier if it conflicts with the item itself (as we saw something is obstructing Shalltear from responding to Ainz and the super tier spell was not able to affect her state) As for what was referred to as "The 20" that is the moniker given to the 20 most powerful world items that were obtainable in the game even among other world items but came at the cost of each one being single use and would be destroyed after. On that note it becomes an example of what made the guild Ainz Ooal Gown such a formidable group. Guilds in Yggdrasil were limited to 100 players total and most would keep their roster full and with players that would optimize their builds to be as powerful as they could come up with. In contrast Ainz Ooal Gown only ever had 41 players in their roster with a number of members having builds that were either more RP focused (like Momonga and his ruler of death build) or others who focused on other things such as crafting. In spite of this would be handicap their guild held the single greatest collection of world items in a game that owning 2 or 3 would put you into the upper rankings of all guilds in that game.
if you look carefully, when shalltear got mindcontrolled, she throws her spear and killed the magic caster and the world item. thats why the enemy can't control her anymore, and left her just like that.
Mare's staff is very very heavy and can be used as a blunt weapon! . Also Pandora's Actor is based on Nazi SS officers! . Shaltear is the first line of defence in Nazarik, her build is focused on pure DPS!
The reason why Mononga was op in the game is because he figured a way to bypass the limit on how much mp you can have and the number of skills you could use
Tiers 1-10 only usually require mana to cast. Super tier magic usually has other conditions, such as experience for "wish upon a star." I believe it is mentioned later, but that makes it more similar to a skill then a magic spell
I mean this is the best way... It is funny how you will catch something that many reviewers won't, but then you will miss something extremely common that everyone caught. It makes watching your reviews interesting since I never know what you will point out.
Not spoiler as it is never said in the anime : actually even though Ains Ooal Gown was not the strongest guild in the game they were the one with the most world items (11 if i remember correctly and the second guild had like 3) when he refers to the Twenty he refers to the 20 most powerful world items in the game, so powerful that having one of them immediately made others scared of you (one of them could even erase a character (even a player) in exchange of erasing the character of the player using it, another could also change the whole game by asking the devs, they would have to put it in if it wasn't destroying the whole game ofc) and they also have a limit number of 1 uses, after that it would disappear and reappear elsewhere in the game so using it even though it was powerful was equal to give it to someone else so people were actually really careful with those. Other world items doesn't necessarily have a limited number of use but were also way weaker (but still strong as you saw with shalltear's mind control) It is said a bit later in the anime but it isn't really a spoiler so read it at your own risks: wearing yourself a world class item is enough to immune you to any other ones (but ofc it means that you can lose it if you're not careful).
Among the melee guardians, there's a sort of rock-paper-scissors dynamic. Though Albedo is the Overseer, she specializes in defense, however, She can be overwhelmed by Cocytus who boasts the highest burst DPS among the guardians. Problem is, he is a glass cannon, so Sebas who is a middle ground between Albedo's defense and Cocytus' offense is more likely to defeat him. “Even among the Guardians of Nazarick, those three can be considered the top among the warrior classes. Cocytus has the advantage against Albedo, but not against Sebas. Sebas is strong against Cocytus, but not against Albedo. Albedo can probably win against Sebas, but not against Cocytus. And his request for training truly reflects Cocytus’ personality… Though, can we really become stronger? If they are strong because their data says they are, doesn’t that mean their limits are also decided by their data?” Shalltear sits outside of this triangle, which is why she was tasked with being the Guardian of the first 3 floors
If you remembered what you saw litterally 1 episode ago🤦♂️, Shalltear killed the one who cast the spell on her, so who could give her orders is no more.
Super tier is basically store items that are pay to win and are more powerful than regular ones. World items are way above that. They are unique and extremely rare. Guilds waged wars over them back in the game
If you rewatch the battle scene from the previous ep, Shalltear had killed the person who tried to mind control her, so the mind control ended up incomplete. As you said, she's like an RC without a remote. That said, I'm hyped for the next ep, it's one of my favourites from the Overlord anime.
9:42 it's just you who doesn't understand It is self explaining He warned him not to come because he obviously wants to check shalltear case as ainz and not momon If he would send him back it would only create issues By killing him he can just say the vampire killed him and that's it
Ainz's creation is called Pandora's Actor, not Yuri. Yuri is the maid who was with Albedo. Pandora's Actor's voice actor is indeed Miyamoto Mamoru, the voice actors of Rintaro Okabe- Steins Gate and Light Yagami- Death Note.
World Items are basically admin cheat codes that trump everything except other World Items. Shalltear has immunity to mind control and the World Item that was used on her trumped that complete immunity. So there are items that can basically oneshot some of Nazaricks elites. Super tier is basically just the same as 10th tier magic but they have some ritualistic methods of activation, so they can't be spammed.
BTW if you ever wanted to see more of the other members of Ainz Ooal Gown there is a blink and you'll miss it moment at the beginning of the fourth OP where a number of them are lined up in silhouette before it zooms into Momonga. Even with just a few in silhouette they're quite a motley bunch.
also Momonga, so for the usual spell casters they could know about 300 spells however Momonga with his racial skill from Overlord, i believe its called Dark Wisdom he knew about 800 spells
World Items are The broken items. As an example that doesn't show up besides mentions, Longinus is a World Item that completely erases the target from existence, at the cost of also erasing the user. When it was a game it literally deleted both people's characters, and also they cannot just make a new one, they are off the game forever unless a different one potentially is used to bring them back.
I know this is a bit late, and I didn't look too far down to see if it was already mentioned, but remember how one of Ains Ooal Gown's rules for joining was "A Non-Human Race." All the 41 members of the guild were non-human characters, and especially since we're considering that all these players were maximum level by the time they quit the game, a lot of them would have likely acquired very diverse, and unique, item and equipment sets that would have made their character appearances even more outlandish and insane.
In order to avoid confusion: - On one side you have the magic system of the game Yggdrasil, going from 1-10 and then Super. Think of it like the E-A Rank systems they use in other anime, like Solo Leveling, and then you have S-Rank and compare it with Super. - On the other side you have the World Level Items. Even us novel readers, know little info about them. But, we do know that there were at least 200 of them. They are basically items that can help the user overpower their enemies. Of course if you had another one of those OR you had a very specific class in the game you could defend against one. . . . As far as I can remember, while Momon was playing the game there were only about 40-50 confirmed World Level Items and players had to do various things to find them. For example, the throne that Momon is usually sitting when he is using the mirror thingy to spy is one World Level Item that prevents outsiders from spying the Tomb of Nazarick and has various defensive functions. Now, if some1 were to infiltrate the Tomb and had another World Level Item capable of destroying the Throne, there would be a lot of spying. Since we saw that the ones that got attacked by Shalltear had one World Level Item, Momon being FURIOUS for not considering the possibility makes sense. It also enhances his theory that at least one more player from the game Yggdrasil is somewhere in this new world. - Last, but not least, Pandora's Actor is here. Our boi has made his appearance. Give him headpats. Nuff said.
To help understand the spells: Normal spells range from level 1 - 10. Above those are Super tier, which cost no magic but have a massive cooldown period, usually long enough that most battles end before a second can be cast, and the cooldown... is for all players in range, not just the caster, preventing Super spells from being spammed. In most cases though, most Super spells have large casting times. World items are super rare items of which there are limited amounts. And those? They're the definition of admin privileges. The only defense against a world item is to have another world item currently in possession of the player being targetted.
15:54 By the way, what he read and what is written there are very different things. The scripture is Latin and literally says: "It ascends from Earth to heaven and descends again to Earth to receive the force of things which are superior and inferior."
29:26 Albedo is the leader of all guardians. Demiurge is probably most intelligent and most powerfull spell caster, but he still serves under Albedo. Now, as for Shalltear stength-> most of floor guardians, guarded only 1 floor. Shalltear is the guardian of 3 floors... that speaks something about her power...
By this point several have probably pointed it out for you why those guys needed to be removed. They wanted to go there and collect evidence along with Momon. Which means they could contradict the story he make about what happened. So Ainz did the easy thing and removed the potential contradiction (rather than just having used memory alteration)
It's funny how you put in a promotion for a therapy service hours after i opened up to my psychology student old friend. Truly interesting how coincidences happen like that.
You can think about the World Items as the Infinity Stones from the Avengers. It's the magic that can rewrite the world, but you can count in the Magic System because they are unique and you can literally use them once.
Yeah everyone that still play multiplayer and online games with friends , at least well into their 30s , can relate to the bittersweet feelings and sadness that Momonga experiences . We all got at least a friend or two that drifted apart "because well life and responsibilities happen" , or some we even got mad at .
9:20 Ainz warned him not to come along or he would most definitely die. And with his comment to Mare, it can almost be assumed that, Ainz prepared for the worst thinking they might be involved with Shalltear going rogue, but clearly that was overkill with how quickly they were defeated off-screen.
Also unmentioned in the power scaling is that Mare Bella Fiore is the strongest spell caster among the NPCs of Nazarik. While his sister Aura is the strongest monster tamer among the NPCs. So "strongest" is a relative term in relation to the guardians. They are each kind of specialized in very different ways. In terms of one on many or one on one combat among the guardians Shalltear is a high DPS build with "berzerker" like blood lust traits that activate the more she kills. That being said, level cap for Yggdrasil was 100, and each of the guardian NPCs are that level. The Pleiades battle maids are roughly between levels 55-70, and work in concert with their leader Sebas, the level 100 NPC created by Touch Me to guard the last line of defense at the throne room. Each of the 41 Ainz Ooal Gown guild members was also eventually a high-level player in a guild that didn't shy away from PvP gameplay. They were not the top guild in Yggdrasil, but they were a well-known and highly ranked guild in the game. That being said, Pandora's Actor's race is a doppelganger, and as such has the ability to mimic any of the 41 guild players at 80% of their level. This along with his high intelligence makes him the most versatile of the guardians in terms of skills available, making him a good counter for anyone by picking a build which exploits the weaknesses of a particular opponent.
About the spell system in Yggdrasil, the game was known for its extensive variety of spells and skills, some only available by taking certain classes or class combinations which created synergies with each other. Each class has only 5-10 levels in a particular class so multi-class builds are a must as player reach higher levels. In terms of combined class levels, a level 1-9 player can only use level 1 spells, a level 10-19 can use level 2 spells, etc.. Of course this means that since most people in the new world think level 3 spells is the highest level most people will ever learn to cast then most people in their world are below level 30. The "realm of heroes" mentioned by Clementine is people who have exceeded level 35. This means to use level 10 spells, a player has to be max level 100. Super-tier spells are spells more powerful than level 10 spells, but usually have restrictions on use such as long cast time, costing experience points to use, and other requirements such as minimum level. Certain class build combinations granted skills or gatcha items can reduce or eliminate these restrictions though. As a cash shop king, Momonga/Ainz was stocked up on several of these gatcha items which is where he'd got the 500 yen gatcha item Horn of the Goblin General than Enri used to summon the goblins who now serve under her. However, many of these odd specialty items had their own restrictions/hidden conditions as well.
14:35 Imagine your Limited Gacha Super tier magic that you spent hardly to get it, just get "Rejected" like snap in a new world that assumed 8th Tier Magic is a myth. 😮 17:47 back to rules for joining Ainz Ooal Gown 18:38 Yes it's Him 😂 and also Light Yagami lmao
Ainz is ashamed of pandoras actor because he made him during what Japanese call a chunibiyo phase (don’t know how to spell it) also known as 8th grade syndrome; where a kid is obsessed with seeming dark, mysterious, flamboyant, and edgy. That’s why pandoras actor was locked in the vault so people wouldn’t see him. World items are literally game breakers. I can’t remember all of them, but I think the one used on shaltear was an item that can be used to control anyone in the game. Some others do stuff like like erase an area of the world, a book that can be used to make a new spell, a scroll that can lock a person into a maze like dimension, Gauntlets that steal XP and give XP, and more.
roundish 12:40 So tiers are from 1-10 with ten being the highest, Super Tier magic is above it, that type of magic takes a long time to cast, very interruptible and takes xp from the caster on top of having a cool-down unlike normal spells which just spend mana, in return they are very powerful. Super tier magic is above 10th tier but below World level Items As for Items I mean World Item is the highest one in game while below it is God Tier item those are the highest level Item anyone could make as for world items there is a lot more then 21 can't remember exact number but there are a lot there are only 21 that can be used once before spawning somewhere else
So I'll explain what happened to Shalltear because the anime doesn't. I put it down lower incase someone thinks this could spoil anything. (IT DOESN'T.) Shalltear was hit by the world item "Downfall of Castle and Country" which can take control of anything regardless of resistance to mind control (It was the glowing white dress the old lady was wearing). Shalltear lucked out because she threw her lance while the spell was casting so she was put under control but severely injured the caster before any orders where given preventing full control so she's stuck on autopilot and will attack anything that gets near her which is why the group just left her in the middle of the forest.
fun fact in the light novel momon does give the crystal to be instected at the table and everyone is shocked to see its true so thats a little diferent from the anime also the guy that gets killed by mare become an elder lich that is seen later in season 2 fighint the lizards
14:27 Lol. I forgot that scene where we see at least 5 other Vampire Brides. I recall thinking there were more when I commented, but could only remember some images showing three of them. 16:22 Just to clarify. Pandora's Actor is indeed the same race as Narberal Gamma, but with significantly more levels in his shape changing ability. 17:15 Only Inhuman races can join the guild. Anyway Tabula Smaragdina was playing a Brain Eater. You might also know them as the Illithid or Mind-flayers from D&D. 20:14 Since its becoming a bit of a thing with the battle maids. I'll explain what sort of creature Yuri Alpha is. Well she is a Dullahan. Which if you aren't aware are a humanoid creature from Irish mythology with a detached head. Most often depicted as a man in black clothing or armor riding a midnight horse while carrying their own head under one arm. Now I say creature since the origin is a little weird. Some tales claim they are an undead corpse. Some say they're a restless spirits. While others state them to be a type of dark fairy. Also yes. This is where the headless horsemen of Sleepy Hollow comes from.
11:40 - Just think of the Ring as a donator's items, which simply surpasses the game's 10 tier magic system. Yggdrasil (the MMO) was pretty much pay to win, which Momonga and the guild did (even though Momonga and Peroronchino were at "no donation items team", but later they succumbed to the donations) Super tier - Donator's Item World Class Item - think of them as an "admin tool", these in-game items were so powerful, they could literally change THE GAME'S WORLD. Because they're so powerful, there are a super limited number of them, and they're EXTREMELY strong, hence why they allow players to change the in-game world. Anyone who possessed such items literally had a bounty on their head, but it was also super dangerous to attack such players. If I'm not mistaken, AOG (Ainz Ooal Gown - the guild) had the most amount of World Class Items.
I think they had ~12 while the second place "only" had 4. Funnily enough AOG was still never the strongest guild or anything, at best hovering around place four and dropping dramatically after the players left.
Magic goes from 1st to 10th tier. 'Above' that is Super tier. Super tier is more like a skill than actual magic; It doesn't cost mana to cast, Is limited by daily uses, or huge cool downs, And has humongous cast time. There exist items that lower the cast time though. Above 'Super tier' are World Items. Objects that basically work like an admin level, world 'edit' function. Of course, they have their own limitations and rules of use. Partly why the alchemy kid is so dangerous.
Hi friend, nice to see you again. This chapter must have been the hardest to animate because it introduces a lot of LORE, but I think they did a decent job. But still I will try to explain some things without falling into the spoiler. When Nabe communicates with Ainz she is seen wearing rabbit ears, this is actually a spell that many mages can use to increase hearing. Nabe uses them because she doesn't have thief or assassin skills to detect hidden enemies, so that way she can make sure no one is hiding to hear her. In the novel, Ainz also uses the spell on occasion, albeit with some embarrassment. When Ainz, disguised as Momon, hears what the Adventurer's Guild report about Shalltear, he wanted to do his best to divert attention and was about to tell them that that vampire's name was actually Carmilia, but then he remembered that This name is widely used in games or Anime for female vampires and if a Player from their world heard it, they could deduce that Shalltear is someone from Ygdrassil. So, flustered and hurried, Ainz made up Honyopenyoko's name without thinking of anything specific, except that it sounded completely different from Shalltear and Carmilia. Hence the name he invented is so silly. Adventurer Igvarge was a real piece of trash. He originally wanted to become a hero, but to do so he didn't mind resorting to dirty tricks like spreading false rumors about himself or using his companions as meat shields. For him all the others were but steps for him to reach the top. However, he was a hard worker and trained intensely, which caused him to intensely dislike Momon, who seemingly appeared out of nowhere and attained his mithril class in a single adventure. In the novel, Igvarge ran away alone when Albedo set out to kill all of his team members, but he unknowingly ended up trapped by one of Mare's spells. Mare then pinned him down and killed him by crushing his skull with her staff. The treasury door was designed by Tabula Smaragdina, the creator of Albedo, who as we know loved the Gap Moe very much. But he also had others passions and one of them was Alchemy, to the point where his player name meant "Emerald Tablet" which is a very famous Greek text on the subject and was believed to contain the secret to making the Philosopher's Stone. The password that Ainz pronounces is the translation of the line that is in Latin and that is a fragment of this Tablet. Even his three creations are also based on the Emerald Tablet. And since we talked about it, I should tell you that, although in the Anime they take too many time to mention it, Albedo has two sisters. The three were named and designed as an allegory to the three processes of Alchemy: Nigredo (putrefaction), Albedo (purification) and Rubedo (reconstitution). To this day we know almost nothing about Rubedo, except that she is very powerful and hides on the eighth floor. But we do know about Nigredo, who is an NPC specialist in magic detection and in the novel she is the one who locates Shalltaer. Nigredo is nothing like her sister Albedo, as she is based on Tabula Smaragdina's other passion, which was horror movies, although (following the Gap Moe logic) her personality is much kinder than one would think. An important detail that many do not notice is the ease with which Albedo orders "kill" Tabula Smaragdina when she recognizes that he is an impostor. Because even Yuri Alpha, the Battle Maiden, is a little hesitant to attack someone in the guise of a Supreme Being. Ainz attributes it to Albedo's great ability to make decisions, but it could also reflect that, as I already mentioned in chapter 5, she is not absolutely loyal to her creator like other NPCs, who always put first the orders of the person who designed them before those of other "Supreme Beings". Now let's talk about Pandora's Actor. He is a doppelganger that has the power to mimic the forms of the 41 members of the Ainz Ooal Gown guild with 80% effectiveness. When Ainz created it he really didn't have anything in mind and just combined a bunch of things that seemed cool to him, but once put together, he found the result a bit embarrassing. His uniform is inspired by that of the Nazis, but before anyone feels offended, let's not forget that Japan and Germany were Allies during the World War II, so his view of them is not as negative as the one we have in West. Furthermore, while after the war the Westerners had to suffer the consequences of the destruction and then the Cold War, the Japanese suffered the effects of the Atomic Bombs that the US dropped on them. In Japan they value strong countries a lot, that's why they are always imitating England (which almost colonized them), the USA that defeated them in 1945 and Germany, which from their point of view is a great country of warriors that dared to face the rest of the world practically alone, twice, and almost won. Of course, that is a thing of the past and the modern Japanese are not thinking of killing anyone, waging war or taking revenge on the allies. As I have already told you, they actually admire the US for having defeated them, as they admire all the strong. I'm just telling you that their view of the events in the World War is naturally different from ours. Also, it's fair to say that the Nazi uniforms looked pretty good. For all these reasons there are many young Japanese who admire, not Nazism itself, but the military power of Germany in World War II. Pandora's Actor is an Area Guardian, which means he guards a sector of a floor and not its entirety. There are many of them and some are even more powerful than some Floor Guardians, like the case of Gurem, a Fire Slime that defends a sector of the floor from Demiurge and is more dangerous than the Demiurge himself. But the case of the Treasury is special, because it is separated in a different dimension and it is impossible to reach it by any direct route. The only way to get there is by wearing an Ainz Oown Gown Guild Ring. Pandora's Actor's name and theme is seemingly based off of the Greek Myth of Pandora's Box, where a single mortal woman named Pandora was gifted a box that contained all of the world's evils within by the Gods and was specifically told by them not to open it, but due to the Pandora's immense curiosity, she opened it and released all the contents into the world. This, in turn, is the basis to Pandora's Actor's role as the Area Guardian of Nazarick's Treasury, of which he is tasked with protecting the 11 World Items currently housed within that all possess the power to completely alter or possibly even destroy the world. The most significant sentence Pandora's Actor says to Ainz in the novel is: "Indubitably so, Lord Ainz! For as I was made by you, if you desire me to do battle with the other Supreme Beings, I shall charge into the fray without hesitation!" It is at this point that we confirm what I mentioned earlier: Normally NPCs will obey the orders of their creator even before those of other Supreme Beings. Now a new level of Ygdrasill's magic is revealed to us. For level 100 players the 10th tier of magic was the maximum and they had to use it carefully because it consumed a lot of MP and also some spells could consume Experience Points, which meant losing levels. This didn't matter much in the game because a player could recover Experience Points by killing monsters or doing quests, but in the New World it's not that easy. Ainz has many powers and powerful summons that he does not dare to use for fear of not being able to recover the Experience Points that they would cost. Also, there is a kind of eleventh tier of magic, which would be Super Tier Magic, however, its characteristics are different. First it doesn't consume MP, so it's more like a skill. Then there is the problem that they take a long time to cast and then any player of the party won't be able to use it again for a long time. And finally, that some of these magic consume Experience Points. In short, it would be the Special Move in a video game, that attack that takes a lot of health off the enemy if you manage to do it right, but can be easily interrupted. Wish Upon a Star is an eleventh tier magic that consumes Experience Points, but thanks to the Ring Ainz has he can use it about 3 times for free. In the game, he granted you some random wishes that many times could not be fulfilled and the administrator had to intervene. But in the New World there are almost no limits to what you can ask for. However, this time was unable to remove Shalltear's mind control because it was imposed by a World Class Item. World Class Items are the 200 rarest and most powerful items in the Ygdrassill game. Ainz Ooal Gown's guild has 11 in total and the next ranked guild only has 3. That gives you an idea of how rare it was to have just one of them. World Class Items were so powerful because they could alter even game mechanics and each one had different abilities. Now I can tell you that the World Class Item that controlled Shalltear was the dress of the old lady who was killed by the spear of light and it can basically mind control someone even if they have immunity. Among the 200 World Class Items there are 20 that are considered the most powerful, but disappear after being used once. In the novel, Ainz mentions that two of "The 20" are stored in the treasury, and that one of them could remove Shalltear's brainwashing effect, but he hesitates to use it because it would lose right after. That's why they have to defeat her. The reason he went to the treasury is because the only way to be immune to the effects of a World Class Item is to hold one yourself. Ainz wants to give one to each Floor Guardian so that they are protected against them. In the next comment I will explain why Shalltaer is so powerful. ¡Thank you very much if you read up to this point!
World items are the single most powerful things in Yggdrasil. So much so that guilds who had them were VERY hesitant about using them in combat because that meant you might lose them to the enemy. One of Twenty is part of a grup of 20 world items that are basically nukes. As powerful as one, and also single use. Super tier magic is magic that has a vastly longer cast time than any other magic and also an incredibly obvious tell, so to use it you needed a full team of people protecting the caster for a significant amount of time. Yuri Alfa is the Pleades maid. My boy the saluter is Pandora's Actor and he's a doppelganger.
This is only an approximate explanation, but to simplify it as much as possible: Think of World Items as completely unique overpowered items. Limited amount, super-strong, only one of each in the entire world. Super-tier magic is just pumping up spells to be stronger than the tier system would normally allow. Rare, but doable by any player if they build towards it.
Another great reaction for a great series! 1- The guild master decide if someone climb multiple ranks at once, but otherwise, there are rules in places to follow. If you follow them and are able to complete multiple quests available to your rank, you'll be able to pass a test to see if you can advance in rank. Ains skipped the test because of his achievement proving he was at least of mythril caliber. That was what the guild master decided. 2- There is a reason he killed that guy and his team. He take the situation with Shalltear extremely seriously. What does it mean? If he want to take it as seriously as it's needed, even if only for the moral side of that matter (he see Shalltear as the child of one of his dear friend) he will have to face her under his overlord form, not his knight form. If those guys saw that, got out alive and spread the news, that would have ruined every plans and machination he had going. That's why he killed them like that. - 3- Ok, I'll explain this. Super rank magic is over the rank 10 magic. It is extremely powerful, but it have it's drawbacks. The most important one is the extremely long cat time, something that make it virtualy impossible to use during a fight unless you use it as an oppening strike after an ambush. There is also the fact you can only use them a certain amount of times a day (usualy once) and can't get them back untill the next day no matter what. That ring let him use one of those spells 3 times before breaking, without cooldown and cast time. It did cost him a very large amount of money to get it, but it is extremely powerful. 4- Ok, something really badly explained in the anime is how world items works. Those are the most powerful items in the whole games. They virtualy give you some admin power when you use them. Somethings they could do are, for example, reating a semi-- cplan of existence in a part of the world where nothing can enter or exist and only those present at the moment of creation, friend and foes alike, will be inside, the only way to break that semi-plan would be to find and kill the item's owner. 2- A weapon that let you leech life for more than the damage dealt, passing through any protection and totaly indestructible who will return to your hand if you throw it as long as no one is able to catch it. 3- Like in this case, take an undead creature of any level under your control, bypassing their natural imunity to every mental effect possible. When you take that into account, Ains discovering that those items also exist in the new world explain his state of panic and rage and why he increase the security level to that amount. After all, there is no way of knowing if the opponent have any other world items. 5- No, that's what the character of the player who created Albedo looks like. It's only an avatar. Keep in mind there was an iron clad rule never to be broken to join Nazarick... You needed to be a non-human character. 6- Well, to understand Ains's reaction to Pandora's actor's acting, there is one thing you can do. Go watch the first video you ever did. I'm sure you'll cringe so much you won't be able to complete it. You changed since then after all, like every body does, and some of the things you did and liked in the past have changed and will make you cringe. He created that NPC many years ago after all. 7- There is more than 20 world items... What he said is he plan to use one of the 20 most powerful. To put it in an easy to understand comparison, there are many katanas, but very few of them were made by Masamune himself. Those are known to be among the best katanas ever forged. HE would be refering to a Masamune katana here. 8- Here I disagree with you. Ains isn't too hard on himself at all when he explain why he has doubt about him being fit as a ruler. He knew world items existed, he knew how powerful they are and he is actively looking for other players. Him not taking into account those players could have world items is a huge problem. It's like if a doctor forgot heart attacks can be a thing. It's like if a president forgot their opponent might have nuclear weapon or, to be more personal, you forgetting your kid could choke when he/she was still a toddler, all of them having the possibility to lead to extreme damage and death. It's that level of screw up. He does have to learn from this and take it very seriously, something he does. It's not being too hard on himself, it's re-evaluating himself because of such an important mistake. Oh, and before you or anyone takes it personnaly, it was an example, I'm not saying you did so, it's just so you can understand the importance of the mistake he made. 9- Ok, once again, something not explained in the anime. Albedo isn't the strongest in Nazarik after Ains. The strongest is one of her sister we won't see in the anime called Rubedo. She is such a monster she would have been able to take 3 of the players at once and win. But even if we take the floor gardians, she isn't the strongest. There is a trinity amoung them. Albedo is a tank, an amazing one. Shalltear is a warrior, once again an amasing one. Demiurge would be a, an amazing one. Normaly, in a one-on-one, Shalltear beat Demiurge who beat Albedo who beat Shalltear. The thing is, that's not entirely true. They have the advantage, but there is always teh possibility they will lose. All three of them are very powerful, so one mistake in that fight means a very high amount of damage taken, which could mean death. Albedo can't be certain she won't die against Shalltear, as she can't be certain Shalltear won't be able to kill at least on of them before dying. At that level of strenght, the smallest mistake means an awful lot. And... NO, Yuri isn't on the same level of strength. The floor guardian are at level 100, all of them. The pleiades are around lvl 80 or 90. Yuri is at that level. She is strong, but not as much as the floor guardians.
To answer your question about who's the strongest: the strongest npc is Rubedo(hasn't appeared in the series yet we only know she exists) she is Albedo's sister and was created using a world item; The 2nd strongest npc and strongest floor guardian is Shalltear and she is tied in strength with Gargantua(giant golem) but since Shalltear is sentient with a will of her own is likely stronger thanks to that; and after that we don't really know for sure but Mare is likely 3rd with Sebas being 4th. Albedo is the overseer of the guardians but is overall a weaker floor guardian as she is a tank, which is why she can't win against a dps like Shalltear.
29:17 The guardians are all level 100 and have different builds, making them strong in different ways. Most of them have gimmicks or lean hard into offense or defense, while Shalltear is properly optimized to be as strong in a 1v1 as possible.
World level items are essentially game breaking items. They are absolute and nothing is above them. There are 20 world level items and Ainz Ooal Gown holds the most of any guild in Yggdrasil at 11 items. As an example, some world level items could literally force the game devs to change something in the game. So in this case, the mind control over shalltear is already set. The only thing is, she wasn't given a command, which is why she's motionless. Aside from using a world tier item himself, which he doesn't want to do because its a one time use item and he doesn't know what else is out there, his only option is to fight shalltear
Re confusion expressed at 32:05 so ainz has a bunch of world items from his guild stored away. Each has unique, game-breakingly powerful abilities. Back when the game was just a game, some of these world items actually involved the player triggering their item, getting a prompt to write a message to the actual developers of the game outlining what they want the item to do and then those developers going to work making it happen. Anything from completely changing the look and layout of one of the worlds in yggdrasil or making certain types of magic impossible to use in one such world. The problem is that using one of these items is a one-time deal, once used the item is spent/vanishes. And Ainz is unwilling to spend an item of literal world-altering power just to remove the mind control effect on Shalltear. His plan is instead to defeat her and resolve the situation that way instead But Shalltear's race and class is basically vampire paladin, so she's got all the undead immunities and resistances to necromancy which is Ainz's strength... But she also has access to holy magic and effects which is the weakness of an undead like Ainz. Ergo she's the rock to his scissor. But Ainz plans to win anyway and thus prove that he is That Guy.

Super tier magic is the highest tier magic
And world rank items are the strongest items that you could find and also the rarest
If you remember the game name is yegdrasel? It's essentially the world tree and those items are made from it's fallen branches and it is said to be able to destroy the world
Also I am not sure if it's a specific one or if all of them can do this but in the game world tier items could delete characters from the server
And that's Momonga's guild is considered one of the strongest is because they were able to keep a lot of these items
World items has the power to change the world not destroy it and they had restrictions for example the world-item that could delete a players character had the restriction that the user would also get deleted (if I remember correctly)@@MassiF-z7v
You need the context of why it is so sad, you will see in the real world of Satouro that it is the year 2138, the world is in decline, there is no food, there are no plants, it is so contaminated that in order to leave You have to put on a radiation suit, why is it important because unlike all the other isekais protagonists, Ainz was not a geek but rather worked just like all the others Supreme beings who were not children but functional lords of society. It is not that Satouro wanted to be playing all day but that for all people the game was the way to avoid In reality, the example is blue planet, which Ainz mentions in chapter 2, saying that if he had been transported, he is the one the world would love the most since his dream was to see a real tree, that's why In the game he loved seeing the plants in the game etc.When Ainz says that Nazarick is his world, he is not lying, it was everything for him and his friends, due to different things, they could no longer continue.
Yes, he did kill them because he didn't want them to report back on anything that happened during the retrieval of Shalltear. The other Adventurers were basically an information liability.
Edit: Pandora's actor was made when Momonga was younger. At this time he had a bit of an obsession with WW2 Germany which lead to the creation of Pandora's Actor. He eventually grew out of this phase and kept Pandora's Actor hidden in the treasury. It is also worth noting that most of the other guardians in the novels are jealous of him since their creators left while Momonga stayed.
In the LN it's much more detailed, they ride to the forest, make comments on Hamsuke, Nabe's golem horse, etc. They describe their leader's flaws with his temper. When they reach the forest, Albedo reveal herself and hunts them down with Mare. Ainz did warn them to stay home, so they couldn't know he was undead and his link to Shalltear.
Bro was that war obsessed friend everybody has
can't blame momonga, german uniforms are lit.
@@Ted_Kenzoku Hugo Boss was appropriately named.
@@Ted_KenzokuJapan as a major crush on the german aesthetics of ww2.
Shaltier was created to be as battle efficient as possible, she is a a true specialist in battles. That's why she is the guardian of the first 3 floors of Nazarick. And she is specially designed to counter Momonga because her creator and (Peroronchino) and Momonga where good friends, so he created her like this to taunt Momonga (friendly bander :) )
Super tier magic is above 10th level, like magic that surpasses all expectations, but still magic within the game
World items on the other hand are exactly what you said. Admin items. They overwrite game rules exactly as an admin in a game can. Without following game principles and rules. They are the rarest and most difficult artifacts to obtain :)
Which you wouldn't know looking at Ainz who just waltzes into his vault with a laundry list of world items he wants pulled out and, y'know, is a frickin' walking world item himself (his orb). It's crazy what a flex that is in context.
Oh thank you for the info!
He said to the adventurers, when you come you die. He cant let them live because he cant defeat shalltear as momon but only as Ains. he cant let them live, because shalltear is a subordinate of nazarik. It was literally to keep his Identity and Nazarik safe.
because after all, memory manipulation spells or any other option didnt really crossed his mind
Oh damn!
@@doublehit9165 They exit but can be unreliable, he was willing to use it on the village girls to remove the memory of his face being a skeleton, but doing the same to high level (well, for humans) adventurers and expecting it to last? Not worth the risk.

Yes, the Shalltear. :p
underrated comment bro :)

👀
there is a set of 3 bunny related spells - each spell does something different.
Rabbit Ears: A 1st tier spell that increases the caster's hearing.
Rabbit Foot: A 1st tier spell that Increases the caster's luck.
Bunny Tail: Decreases aggression towards the caster.
Rabbit Ears/Rabbit Foot/Bunny Tail: If a female character activates these three magics at the same time, it changes her clothes into a bunny girl outfit.

she is using the bunny ears for spying on surrounding outside the room. (she has all 3 spells ofcs)
tabula smaragdina is vaguely based on the mind flayers from dnd.
Yes it was called Brain Eater I believe
The maid next to Albedo is Yuri.
This one friendly guy is Pandora's Actor
Pandora's Actor. Like Pandora's Box but hes a shapeshifter lol
Ah my bad! He's great!
Pandora's Actor is basically created when he's still in his cringe phase. Once he outgrew that he felt so embarrassed every time he sees over the top act so he pretty much just locked him in the treasury.
Luke likes him because he's still in his cringe phase lol
Ah he's so great though! Should be at the gates, greeting people!

This post is made in the spirit of fun discussion. It contains no spoilers to the animated series.
So, now that the show brought up World Items, let’s do a brief overview of them. Note: we will *NOT* talk too much about them, because a lot of the info known about world items involves spoilers. Even if certain facts about world items in the New World have only been mentioned in the novels up to this point, there is a good chance those facts will come into play in the final seasons of Overlord, so I urge the comment section to exercise caution in any discussions. This comment is made solely to give the idea of what world items are capable of.
There is a lot of lore to the back story, most of which doesn’t matter, so let’s just summarize: world items allow players an insane level of power in the game, so much so that they could even change the game world and the game mechanics for everyone who played. There were 200 world items, though not all had been discovered because they were extremely well hidden. Some were one-time only use, meaning you would have to find it again if you wanted to use it twice. A player or guild who found one went to great lengths to hide the fact, because they would be a huge target to every other player looking to steal it.
When the guild Ainz Ooal Gown was forming, only 50 items were known about by the players. Info about them was only known because of spying, espionage and leaks by players who were quitting the game. The only way to protect against a world item’s effect is to either, A.) Have another world item in your possession, or, B.) Be changed to a very specific unique job class that could protect against it. The guild was protected by attacks from other players using world items because they stored a world item in their base.
Of the 200 world items, there were 20, simply called “The Twenty”, that were considered so powerful that they could totally break the game. The guild staff that Ainz carries is not a world item, because it was created by the players in his guild. However, it was made by combining numerous God Tier level items, so it’s power is comparable to a world item.
So let’s look at a few examples of world items. Remember, we will not discuss any world items that could be linked to info that ends up being spoiler.
*Five Elements Overcoming:* (one of the twenty). Has the power to let a player request that the developers change the game’s magic system.
*Ouroboros:* (one of the twenty). Has the power to let a player request that the developers change numerous mechanics of the game, even beyond what Five Elements Overcoming can.
*World Savior:* (one of the twenty). A club that is actually very weak at the start. But can be continuously powered up with use. Its power level could become so high that it could defeat the entire combined strength of all of Ainz Ooal Gown’s members.
*Longinous:* (one of the twenty). Its user can sacrifice his own existence to remove ANY target from existence as well. No resurrection magics could restore the user’s data, ever, (except possibly by another world item). Note: if someone used it on an NPC in the Tomb of Nazarick, the NPC would be destroyed and the tomb’s maximum allowed NPC level would drop. Further note: guilds with a large enough base were allowed to create NPCs with a total combined level of 700, (with max per NPC being 100). However, you could increase the maximum allowed level with cash shop items, a world item, or special quests the guild leader had to complete. Since every Ainz Ooal Gown member was required to have a job IRL, it’s implied they bought lots of cash shop upgrades. The extremely high NPC maximum level in Nazarick is a special feature of the guild’s home base, and one of the reasons their base remained undefeated by raids.
*Unknown Item:* Allows the user to turn himself into a World Level Enemy, enemies that level break and are considered a threat to the whole world of the game. A champion in the realm of Musplheim used it to become one of Lords of the Seven Deadly Sins, considered some of the most extreme enemies of the game. It made him so powerful he could fight 30 max level players evenly.
*Throne of Kings:* The throne that Ainz sits on when acting as the Overlord. Located on the 10th floor of Nazarick. This is probably the world item that defends the tomb from other world item attacks and even prevents enemy information magics from spying inside. When sat on, it provides the user an unknown buff, and also allows the user to monitor the stats and situations of all of his allies within the tomb. This is why you often see Ainz sitting on the throne when he is studying the NPC charts and stat lists.
ข้อมูลเเน่นมากครับ อธิบายดี
let me just add a few touches to this wall of text... very nicely put btw...
World Items and Super Tier Magic are 2 different systems...
so in simpler terms... Items are ranked just like any other MMO would... like Uncommon, Rare, Epic or Legendary rank items... in Yggdrasil the order goes like this -> Low, Medium, High, Top, Legacy, Relic, Legendary, Divine and finally World Level
IIRC Nazarick has 11 World Items out of the few that are actually known making them the Guild with the Highest Number of World items in Yggdrasil...
Now for the Magic System... its very simple ... 1st tier being the lowest tier and 11th tier being the highest... Note that 0th tier magic exists but only in the "New World" and it did not exist in Yggdrasil... now you might be asking .. isnt 10th tier the highest? nahh.. 11th tier is just Super Tier Magic .. what differentiates 0th-10th tier magic from Super Tier Magic is that normal magic u need MP or more commonly known as Mana to Cast..meaning u can spam it whenever its of Cooldown and you have Mana to cast it... its also pretty quick to cast... Super Tier Magic however isnt like the normal tier magic because it does not require Mana to cast but EXP.. yes.. the EXP you grind by killing mobs or by doing quests... u cant spam it and its casting time is atrocious... however the results are nothing compared to 10th tier magic... i could go over magic enchantments ( like u probably already noticed in some lines in the anime like "Twin Maximize Magic" or "Triplet" or "Boosted") but in short terms... it allows the magic you are about to cast differentiate slightly from the "Vanilla" spell... Lets imagine you want to cast a simple Fire Ball... u simply say "Fire Ball" and a fire ball appears out of your ass like rainbows do when unicorns fart... however if u say "Twin Fire Ball" ... 2 Fire Balls appear instead of 1... or if said spell normally would cast.. lets say 5 fire balls.. Twin Fire Ball would cast 10 instead... or if u want a spell to Deal its Maximum amount of damage.. since spells have ranges in terms of damage .. like a fire ball dealing between 75-100 damage... by saying Maximize Fire ball it would cast said fire ball at 100 damage always...
@@quantumphayer One edit: the Twin/Triplet enhancements only work on spells that normally create only one object/projectile, so it would not work on your Quint Fire Ball spell (or, to use a D&D example, Meteor Swarm) as they normally create more than one projectile, nor would it work on a spell that does not create an object/projectile, like Grasp Heart or Negative Burst.
I could probably look this up but you guys seem to know your stuff....
I have a question about the world Items. Are there more than one specific world item? Like for example could multiple guilds have an Ouroboros? Or is there only 1 Ouroboros item in the game/server?
Only one. According to the lore, they were made from the remains of the leaves on the World Tree Yggdrasil after a dragon ate all the rest. So world items are unique.
Quick details on missing informations or confused bits!
- The Gardian of the treasury is Pandora's Actor (PA). Yuri is the Pleaides Maid, 2nd in command & Dullahan race.
Background informations on World Level Items (WI):
- There were 200 World Items back in Yggdrasil.
- Each Leaf on the Tree represents a World, and each World was associated with a World Item. So, each of the 200 World Items has the power of a World behind it.
- When Ainz was talking about the Twenty (20), he was referencing a specific category of those 200 World Items. Those are the ''Strongest'', so strong in fact, that they are One-use items only. He's implying that one of those in the possession of Nazarick could free Shalltear from her mind control.
- Ainz is afraid to lose a One-use trump card, now that he knows there is other World Items in the New World. Therefore, he prefers to fight Shalltear, and resurrect her afterwards as an NPC.
- Nazarick has 11 World Items in total, the most of any Guild back in Yggdrasil. At least one of them is a Twenty. The Guild that had the 2nd most World Items had 3.
- World Items are Absolute in power (Game breaking), so above the effects of Super or 10th Tier magic. This is why the ring failed to dispel the mind control on Shalltear.
- The only way to protect yourself from the effect of a World Item, is to yourself own/equip a World Item. This is why Ainz goes to the treasury and takes them out, to give them to the Gardians, his strongest NPCs (most are Lv. 100 like himself). If Shalltear had worn a World Item when she was attacked, the mind control effect would have failed.
Shalltear's Strength: Of all the Guardians, Shalltear is considered the strongest fighter. That's mostly why she is guarding 3 floors by herself. She was created by Peroroncino. She's optimized for combat, and uses holy magic, which is very effective against the undead. When you compare her build to Ainz, which didn't pursue pure power, but instead went for a ''Death roleplay'' build, there's no doubt he's weaker.
7:15 The thing is, this is basically a roleplay account for Ainz where he just wanted to have some fun as an evil lich. He never went for an actually optimized build or seriously tried to be the strongest. Imagine what he would be if he was playing competetively XD
I think touch me was the strongest in the guild right? Or on of the top 3 at least. Momonga is like top 5 strongest just because of the amount of spells he knows.
SPOILERS LUKE DONT READ touch me was one of the champions on the game meaning he is one of the best player in all yggdrasil in the guild he was the "strongest" but that is also kinda difficult to say when the creator of demiurge had one of the most destructive spells @@GabrielRojasAhumada
@@XeosLolicon Touch me is strongest in the server ygdrassill servers are named after worlds on the norse world tree only strongest in the server can get world champion class
@@XeosLolicon MORE SPOILERS!!!! Touch Me was World Champion class, which is a class only people who won a specific PvP tournament could take levels in, and only 1 person in each server/world of Yggdrasil could earn this title. A cross-server tournament of these World Champions was held, and Touch Me came in 3rd (I think), making him the 3rd strongest player IN THE WHOLE GAME.
Momonga is undefeated in PVP rematches. You know that meme where Batman with enough Preptime can defeat anyone?
That's Momonga to a T.
29:31 I don't think it's ever explicitly stated in the anime, but Albedo is actually speced as a tank. She has the highest HP and defense of all the guardians. Shalltear, on the other hand, is a DPS monster. A fight between them would basically be a stalemate.
well no, Shalltear would win, Albedo doesn't have the means to put Shalltear down, nor does Shalltear, so it becomes a battle of attrition, and on top of being an undead that doesn't require sleep, Shalltear has life-steal, Albedo is possibly the worst matchup against Shalltear among the guardians (excepting Victim of course), which I would imagine irks her to no end
pretty sure Shalltear mentioned she would beat any other guardians in a 1v1, the book they talked about Cocyutus, Albedo and Sebas being rock paper scissors against each other but Shalltear could almost/maybe 1v3 them
@@chrisk3127if I am remembering it correctly, Cocyutus has the knowledge to use all of the supreme being’s weapons, so if he got the permission from Aniz, he may got a chance to win Shalltear?
@Daniel-vc3ny I dont remember if he has skills for non swords? only one he would probably want to use is his creators unless Ainz ordered him, pretty sure shalltear would demolish him still all she needs to do is stay at range and hit him with magic
@@chrisk3127 Just googled and I am right about that, Cocyutus’s creator did teach him how to use all of the supreme being’s weapon. Shalltear is still the strongest 1on1 fighter, but I do think that with the help of those world items, Cocyutus could give her a great fight.
When Albedo speaks about Pandora's Actor (or PA as the comunity also calls him) being one of the smartest people in Nazarik, she means aside from him Demiurge (a millitary expert) and herself who manages "Human" resources. PA is actually in charge of coin expenditure and keeping magic items in check (he loves to polish and take care of them as Ainz programed him to)
Also, about the "strongest" part, Shalltear is the strongest 1v1 NPC, while Albedo is the tankiest NPC, but her strenght is lower. There also exist a rock paper scisor power relationship between Albedo (Tank), Sebas (ballanced fighter) and Cocytus (The big blue bug, a perfect glass cannon)
SPOILER(?): there also exists Rubedo who supposedly is even more "powerfull", whether or not that directly connects to fighting strengh I'm not sure though. It is highly speculated that she was created using a world-item. (Though she is very much a mystery even in the LNs)
the strongest entity in nazarick is albedo younger sister Rubedo.. be it 1 vs 1 or Raid battle rubedo can wipe them all
Doesn't mare have the strongest attack???
possibly but as a caster his weakness is pretty obvious so I think many guardians like Sebas, Shalltear and some more can defeat him.@@_Em_Branco
@@_Em_Branco If I'm correct Mare is the strongest AOE Magic caster, I was talking only about physical strenght
Oh yes...I was also shocked when I saw Tabula Smaragdina. A very interesting character with strange hobbies. As a mage, by the way, he was stronger than Momonga. His race (apparently) were a mindflayer.
18:59 Luke,It’s the same feeling when you read your old fanfic you wrote when you were on Emo phase
Luke, why would Ainz want some random dude to come see shalltear with him?, obviously he wants no one around
Some random dude who is angry that Ainz got moved up the guild ranks so quickly as well, so someone with a grudge against Ainz.
Yeah. There are a lot of times when Luke is completely devoid of common sense that it's borderline infuriating.
@@jome2284ikr😂
Basic explanation of the magic system:
Tear magic: This ranges from 1 to 10 and consume mana.
Super tear magic: It does not consume magic and is far more powerful. However the acquisition of such spells is more limited. Super tear also takes a long time to cast and can be interrupted in battle. Usually the caster needs a tank or team to guard them while casting. When the super tear is either cast or interrupted, the spell can't be cast again that day. There are exceptions and situations to change all this, but I'm sticking to the basics.
World items: These are items with game breaking effects. Usually one use items. Basically nukes of last resort. In the Ygdrasil game, there existed 200, yet during the game's whole run time, only 50 were ever discovered. As an example, here are two that aren't shown in the series. A world item that permanently deletes your own character along with any one other player character or NPC you chose in the entire game. No resurrection. No respawn. Just gone. Another item caused a world wide attack on all evil NPCs and Players in the game.
Ainz played the game for a long time, he created Pandora's Actor when he was younger and is kind of embarrassed by the way he acts now since it reflects on what he thought was cool back then. He kind of acts like the usual trope you may be familiar with... 'you dare unseal the power of my demonic eye?!' lol
Albedo got emotional because Ainz so casually stated he would put a statue of himself in the MAUSOLEUM which would usually mean he expected to leave them. To him it was just finishing his project, but to her and the other denizens of Nazarick that is tantamount to their entire worlds crumbling apart around them.... Ainz is all they have.
Albedo is pretty strong, but she's a tank class.
18:29 Yes, that is Mamoru Miyano, the voice actor for Ookabe Rintarou, aka Hyouin Kyouma, aka Okarin from Steins;Gate xD
And also, Kira/Light Yagami from Death Note
Aka the producer from Zombie Land Saga (god he was amazing in that role). Easily my favorite male voice actor.
@@Bobbias Yeah, I just want him to watch Zombieland Saga, just for the manager (Tatsumi?)
And well, the Legendary Yamada Tae
@@sosaalexis48 it's such a fun show, I'm sure he'd love it.
Shalltear creator made her for pure combat. Minmaxed her build and stats. Everyone else made their guardians with a role play idea in mind and their builds reflects that. They're all strong but Shalltear was made for purely pvp.
@G.T.O Games
Yeah she defended the first three floors alone, and was only defeated by multi-player parties on like 2 occasions. Going solo would be madness.
Answering Questions:
5:05 for some reason blue or Silver hair is often translated from Japanese to English as "blond" in anime its a bit weird and Im not sure why.
5:49 The silver-haired older man at the head of the table is the "Guild Master" of E-rantel so he mostly decides the ranking, though for going above Mythril, He might need to notify a higher authority as well ( unsure on that point)
6:35 yeah Ainz just made up a story for a fictional vampire that he has a connection too
7:50 yes that describes Momonga/Ainz though he is humble and tends to rate himself conservatively, however, it is unclear how smart he was in the game compared to other players vs how much his psyche may have been altered in The New World by living so long as an undead
9:20 Yeah Ainz just killed them because he told them that if they came with him "they would definately die" implying they were too weak to face the opponent. They insisted on coming anyway so he killed them, cause he can't have anyone else see his interactions with Shaltear and killing that team was the easiest way to deal with the issue. The scene was dramatically cut from the novel though, which included conversations with the other members of his party.
17:35 All the members of the Guild Ainz Ooal Gown played nonhuman "heteromorph characters" It was one of the requirements to join. The other requirement was to have employment in the real world
19:05 Ainz has become embarassed by both his own creation and the old self that created him. Its like looking at your writings/ artwork from several years ago and now finding it cringe
25:25 They are NPcs with full personalities which are often quite evil, but at the same time they are children desperate to keep their creator/parent around. Its a weird dichotamy
26:50 There are 200 World items in the entire, 20 of which are known as the "1 of 20" which disappear after a single use to a random place in the world. All
29:30 Albedo is the Overseer of the guardians but she is not the strongest, She merely has the strongest Defense. Shaltear is the strongest in a 1 on 1 Dual.
33:50 Yeah its seems that if she was mind-controlled the user could have ordered shaltear to do anything, however, instead it seems she has simply been left at the scene of the battle with no orders acting like a game npc. This might have something to do with Shaltear's final attack that at minimum seriously injured the woman that launched the attack.
As a former leader and creator of a guild called "Fluffy Stuffies" this episode hit me right in the feels when it first aired. We founded the guild when us 3 founding members suddenly ran across each other farming sheep for mats and decided to team up to make it more fun (hence the guild name). Over the years we grew from 3 to 58 members. Those happy days playing and hanging around with my mates are memories I will never forget. As was the sad day I decided to disband the guild as the last active member. Everyone else had already moved on to other games. I just could never bring myself to recruit new people because those we had lost over the years could never be replaced 😢
a little bit about the strength of the NPCs: Albedo has the highest defense, and there is also Cocytus - he has the highest physical attack, and there is Sebas Tian, he has these characteristics much lower, but he breaks through armor with it. They can be said to be like rock paper scissors.But Shalltear has such a set of abilities and items that she is strong against a crowd of enemies, and at the same time can cope 1 on 1 with a strong opponent
Yup, Luke, you're 100% right. Pandora's Actor is Mamoru Miyano. He's both Okabe in Stein's Gate and Light from Death Note although my favorite role of his has to be his role in Zombie Land Saga.
Also, there isn't only Twenty World items, but 200, the Twenty part reffers to twenty single use World level items, one of which allowed the people of the New World use the Tier magic system
little fun fact for pandoras actor across the other dubs: In english he makes the same "suddenly speaking german" joke as he does in japanese however in german dub that obviously doesnt work so instead of that they had him misspronounce Nazarik as Na'zi-rick
Read the novel, the reality of their world will tell you why Momonga and his friends characters look the way they look and why their creations are made in such a way. I find the fantasy world that Momonga has been put in is far more a better living condition than the real world he used to be in...
No spoilers but about the guardian's strength, it's like in a PVP game with classes
Albeto is a tank, very resistance and almost immune to effects so she can keep protecting whoever is left if the enemy reach the last floor
Cocytus is a DPS of the highest caliber, with 4 arms he can deal insane amounts of damage very quickly
Sebas is a hybrid with good defense and attack
Shalltears is a Combat Optimized class, she can deal a lot of damage, while being a tank, also has life steal, so she can keep fight for a long time.
Aura is a ranger with her Pets and have scout and ranged skills
Mare is a AOE Mage, with some control magic, from simple shield to earthquakes and tornados
Ainz just like Demiurge is a Summoner, Most of his better spells are summoning magic. Unless Ainz uses EXP to summon things of lvl 90 most things would be useless against shalltears that can heal by attacking his minions.
About Shalltear's mind control, and I don't know if it's considered a spoiler or not (if it is, it's nothing big anyway) or if it is even explained later, but the party that encountered her started doing the mind control spell with a world item but Shalltear stabbed the one doing it so the spell was not completed while the others fled.
And also they don't have to be a player to use world items; do you remember the talent Nphirea had that allows him to use any magic item despite being very weak himself?
As a long time gamer you really can't help but get a little emotional about the comrades that slowly disappear, there was a day when all the boys said "talk to ya later, see ya tomorrow, etc." and then you never end up talking to them again. I really do miss those those good old days.
An easy way to think of it is thay Ainz is a role play build and Shalter is a min maxed character.
BTW, world items are the greatest source of power in this world.
You can get a peek at the characters from last episode in the opening. Right when ainz turns around and before the scene is the laughing skull you can see them
There were several players in the guild that were top tier pkers. Momonga just had a very specific almost roleplay build that gives him a massive variety of spells, and high defense. I think the spell limit was like 300 normally but he has over 800 through his build.
718 spells
IIRC through his Dark Wisdom skill... he has 730ish spells in his reportoire
Fun fact: Ains (Momonga) being the Lich race, was one of the most NORMAL looking or the founding members of the guild. One of the requirements was being a non-human, and even normal-looking ones like Touch Me were actually under cosmetic spells or armor to have that appearance. Momonga used his base body shape andd looked normal, but Bukubuku was a slime (or the top tier version of that race) and Peroroncino was a bird person resembling Horus from egyptian mythology.
Ainz needs to deal with Shaltear personally. He doesn't need people getting in the way, and he doesn't want people to know she's one of his subordinates! So yes he killed them!
Also that dude was a jealous dick looking to steal the glory away from Ainz the first chance he could get.
The stuff about the strongest NPC changed a lot in the beginning, now most of the stronger fighter NPCs are in a rock paper scissor relationship and the clear strongest one is Albedo and Nigredo's (Albedo's older sister) younger sister Rubedo who the guild members created in collective effort to create something so broken in the game that it can beat TouchMe in a 1v1 without being a raid boss.
The scene in the mausuleum always gets me, to the NPC, all their gods were gone, now Albedo even have witnessed their tombs, she is in shock realizing how godless they really are, and then, Ainz jokingly talks about his future grave... Albedo couldnt take it anymore, neighter would any of the NPCs, is truly tragic how hopeless she felt at the posibility of her last god abandoned them, even if it is for a greater good or natural cause and he seems fine with it, being completly departed from their creators truly hurts them.
Since I didn't see anyone else explaining it, I will add that the ring that Ains uses, takes great inspiration from D&D's ring of 3 wishes. YOu have 3 wishes that can be fulfilled, with certain limitations.
It's one of the most precious items for non legendary characters, under level 20
24:34
The English dud in this anime did such a good job that it managed to make me cry during this scene, now I'm tearing again while watching your reaction 😢
Really enjoyed the video.
Would love to see you reacting to the official arts of the Supreme Beings and their known stats. If I'm not wrong, the one who made the art is the same person who made the art for the overlord endings.
fun fact #3: In the game Yggdrasil (eeg-drah-sil) one of the primary features was the customizable game code that allowed players great range of flexibility to alter things, create items or NPCs, and bend the rules slightly. One of the ways to do this was through World Items, which were far superior to any other item because they overrule any of the actual gameworld mechanics by definition. That effect makes them literally reality-bending when they carried over to the new world
Yuri was the battlemaid the soldier dude is Pandoras actor and the reason he wants to kill shalltear is so he can ressurect her without status effects as shes an undead.
That's very correct. The role of pandora's actor is Mamoru Miyano, who plays the main character "Rintaro Okabe" of "STEINS;GATE". Pandora's is highly popular due to its high ability as an actor and Miyano's unique acting skills.
31:28 killing and resurrecting Shalltear is basically performing a factory reset on an NPC
Can't wait for him to post the video of him finishing Season 1 and all the people waiting to tell him what's going on come swarming in and make Luke even more confused than he is already.
Ains has over 1000+ spells at his disposal which he can play his enemy off if he know his strategy... which make him powerful too
don't forget that it was talked about EARLY in the first eps, that to be a member of the guild they had rules and one of the rules was had to NONE HUMAN
Some lore concerning world items that is slightly expanded on in later episodes but way more expanded on in books or other material
World items were the top of what was possibly obtainable in the game of Yggdrasil and were all unique items in both effect and obtainability. They are also at the top of power scaling of the entire game meaning that they can and will nullify any ability or affect of a lower tier if it conflicts with the item itself (as we saw something is obstructing Shalltear from responding to Ainz and the super tier spell was not able to affect her state)
As for what was referred to as "The 20" that is the moniker given to the 20 most powerful world items that were obtainable in the game even among other world items but came at the cost of each one being single use and would be destroyed after.
On that note it becomes an example of what made the guild Ainz Ooal Gown such a formidable group. Guilds in Yggdrasil were limited to 100 players total and most would keep their roster full and with players that would optimize their builds to be as powerful as they could come up with. In contrast Ainz Ooal Gown only ever had 41 players in their roster with a number of members having builds that were either more RP focused (like Momonga and his ruler of death build) or others who focused on other things such as crafting. In spite of this would be handicap their guild held the single greatest collection of world items in a game that owning 2 or 3 would put you into the upper rankings of all guilds in that game.
if you look carefully, when shalltear got mindcontrolled, she throws her spear and killed the magic caster and the world item. thats why the enemy can't control her anymore, and left her just like that.
Mare's staff is very very heavy and can be used as a blunt weapon!
.
Also Pandora's Actor is based on Nazi SS officers!
.
Shaltear is the first line of defence in Nazarik, her build is focused on pure DPS!
Yep. Pandora's Actor is voiced by Miyano Mamoru, the VA of Okarin.
The reason why Mononga was op in the game is because he figured a way to bypass the limit on how much mp you can have and the number of skills you could use
Tiers 1-10 only usually require mana to cast. Super tier magic usually has other conditions, such as experience for "wish upon a star." I believe it is mentioned later, but that makes it more similar to a skill then a magic spell
I mean this is the best way...
It is funny how you will catch something that many reviewers won't, but then you will miss something extremely common that everyone caught. It makes watching your reviews interesting since I never know what you will point out.
Not spoiler as it is never said in the anime :
actually even though Ains Ooal Gown was not the strongest guild in the game they were the one with the most world items (11 if i remember correctly and the second guild had like 3) when he refers to the Twenty he refers to the 20 most powerful world items in the game, so powerful that having one of them immediately made others scared of you (one of them could even erase a character (even a player) in exchange of erasing the character of the player using it, another could also change the whole game by asking the devs, they would have to put it in if it wasn't destroying the whole game ofc) and they also have a limit number of 1 uses, after that it would disappear and reappear elsewhere in the game so using it even though it was powerful was equal to give it to someone else so people were actually really careful with those.
Other world items doesn't necessarily have a limited number of use but were also way weaker (but still strong as you saw with shalltear's mind control)
It is said a bit later in the anime but it isn't really a spoiler so read it at your own risks:
wearing yourself a world class item is enough to immune you to any other ones (but ofc it means that you can lose it if you're not careful).
I agree Pandoras Actors emotions are great 😂.
Among the melee guardians, there's a sort of rock-paper-scissors dynamic.
Though Albedo is the Overseer, she specializes in defense, however, She can be overwhelmed by Cocytus who boasts the highest burst DPS among the guardians. Problem is, he is a glass cannon, so Sebas who is a middle ground between Albedo's defense and Cocytus' offense is more likely to defeat him.
“Even among the Guardians of Nazarick, those three can be considered the top among the warrior classes. Cocytus has the advantage against Albedo, but not against Sebas. Sebas is strong against Cocytus, but not against Albedo. Albedo can probably win against Sebas, but not against Cocytus. And his request for training truly reflects Cocytus’ personality… Though, can we really become stronger? If they are strong because their data says they are, doesn’t that mean their limits are also decided by their data?”
Shalltear sits outside of this triangle, which is why she was tasked with being the Guardian of the first 3 floors
Glad you recognized Okarin's VA from Steins Gate.
If you remembered what you saw litterally 1 episode ago🤦♂️, Shalltear killed the one who cast the spell on her, so who could give her orders is no more.
Super tier is basically store items that are pay to win and are more powerful than regular ones. World items are way above that. They are unique and extremely rare. Guilds waged wars over them back in the game
If you rewatch the battle scene from the previous ep, Shalltear had killed the person who tried to mind control her, so the mind control ended up incomplete. As you said, she's like an RC without a remote.
That said, I'm hyped for the next ep, it's one of my favourites from the Overlord anime.
The player spent real money to buy in game items. For example, the ring "Shooting Star."
9:42 it's just you who doesn't understand
It is self explaining
He warned him not to come because he obviously wants to check shalltear case as ainz and not momon
If he would send him back it would only create issues
By killing him he can just say the vampire killed him and that's it
Ainz's creation is called Pandora's Actor, not Yuri. Yuri is the maid who was with Albedo.
Pandora's Actor's voice actor is indeed Miyamoto Mamoru, the voice actors of Rintaro Okabe- Steins Gate and Light Yagami- Death Note.
World Items are basically admin cheat codes that trump everything except other World Items. Shalltear has immunity to mind control and the World Item that was used on her trumped that complete immunity. So there are items that can basically oneshot some of Nazaricks elites.
Super tier is basically just the same as 10th tier magic but they have some ritualistic methods of activation, so they can't be spammed.
BTW if you ever wanted to see more of the other members of Ainz Ooal Gown there is a blink and you'll miss it moment at the beginning of the fourth OP where a number of them are lined up in silhouette before it zooms into Momonga. Even with just a few in silhouette they're quite a motley bunch.
22:17 Yuri Alpha is the woman with the glasses.... Head of the Battle Maids...
Pandora's Actor is the NPC created by Ainz...
also Momonga, so for the usual spell casters they could know about 300 spells however Momonga with his racial skill from Overlord, i believe its called Dark Wisdom he knew about 800 spells
World Items are The broken items. As an example that doesn't show up besides mentions, Longinus is a World Item that completely erases the target from existence, at the cost of also erasing the user. When it was a game it literally deleted both people's characters, and also they cannot just make a new one, they are off the game forever unless a different one potentially is used to bring them back.
I've been doing a challenge:
"Take a shot every time Luke says 'Im confused' "
I am now suffering from crippling alcoholism.
I know this is a bit late, and I didn't look too far down to see if it was already mentioned, but remember how one of Ains Ooal Gown's rules for joining was "A Non-Human Race." All the 41 members of the guild were non-human characters, and especially since we're considering that all these players were maximum level by the time they quit the game, a lot of them would have likely acquired very diverse, and unique, item and equipment sets that would have made their character appearances even more outlandish and insane.
In order to avoid confusion:
- On one side you have the magic system of the game Yggdrasil, going from 1-10 and then Super.
Think of it like the E-A Rank systems they use in other anime, like Solo Leveling, and then you have S-Rank and compare it with Super.
- On the other side you have the World Level Items.
Even us novel readers, know little info about them.
But, we do know that there were at least 200 of them.
They are basically items that can help the user overpower their enemies.
Of course if you had another one of those OR you had a very specific class in the game you could defend against one.
. . .
As far as I can remember, while Momon was playing the game there were only about 40-50 confirmed World Level Items and players had to do various things to find them.
For example, the throne that Momon is usually sitting when he is using the mirror thingy to spy is one World Level Item that prevents outsiders from spying the Tomb of Nazarick and has various defensive functions.
Now, if some1 were to infiltrate the Tomb and had another World Level Item capable of destroying the Throne, there would be a lot of spying.
Since we saw that the ones that got attacked by Shalltear had one World Level Item, Momon being FURIOUS for not considering the possibility makes sense.
It also enhances his theory that at least one more player from the game Yggdrasil is somewhere in this new world.
- Last, but not least, Pandora's Actor is here.
Our boi has made his appearance.
Give him headpats.
Nuff said.
World items are indestructible
To help understand the spells:
Normal spells range from level 1 - 10.
Above those are Super tier, which cost no magic but have a massive cooldown period, usually long enough that most battles end before a second can be cast, and the cooldown... is for all players in range, not just the caster, preventing Super spells from being spammed. In most cases though, most Super spells have large casting times.
World items are super rare items of which there are limited amounts. And those? They're the definition of admin privileges. The only defense against a world item is to have another world item currently in possession of the player being targetted.
15:54 By the way, what he read and what is written there are very different things. The scripture is Latin and literally says: "It ascends from Earth to heaven and descends again to Earth to receive the force of things which are superior and inferior."
29:26 Albedo is the leader of all guardians. Demiurge is probably most intelligent and most powerfull spell caster, but he still serves under Albedo.
Now, as for Shalltear stength-> most of floor guardians, guarded only 1 floor. Shalltear is the guardian of 3 floors... that speaks something about her power...
By this point several have probably pointed it out for you why those guys needed to be removed.
They wanted to go there and collect evidence along with Momon.
Which means they could contradict the story he make about what happened. So Ainz did the easy thing and removed the potential contradiction (rather than just having used memory alteration)
It's funny how you put in a promotion for a therapy service hours after i opened up to my psychology student old friend. Truly interesting how coincidences happen like that.
You can think about the World Items as the Infinity Stones from the Avengers.
It's the magic that can rewrite the world, but you can count in the Magic System because they are unique and you can literally use them once.
Yeah everyone that still play multiplayer and online games with friends , at least well into their 30s , can relate to the bittersweet feelings and sadness that Momonga experiences . We all got at least a friend or two that drifted apart "because well life and responsibilities happen" , or some we even got mad at .
9:20 Ainz warned him not to come along or he would most definitely die. And with his comment to Mare, it can almost be assumed that, Ainz prepared for the worst thinking they might be involved with Shalltear going rogue, but clearly that was overkill with how quickly they were defeated off-screen.
Also unmentioned in the power scaling is that Mare Bella Fiore is the strongest spell caster among the NPCs of Nazarik. While his sister Aura is the strongest monster tamer among the NPCs. So "strongest" is a relative term in relation to the guardians. They are each kind of specialized in very different ways. In terms of one on many or one on one combat among the guardians Shalltear is a high DPS build with "berzerker" like blood lust traits that activate the more she kills. That being said, level cap for Yggdrasil was 100, and each of the guardian NPCs are that level.
The Pleiades battle maids are roughly between levels 55-70, and work in concert with their leader Sebas, the level 100 NPC created by Touch Me to guard the last line of defense at the throne room. Each of the 41 Ainz Ooal Gown guild members was also eventually a high-level player in a guild that didn't shy away from PvP gameplay. They were not the top guild in Yggdrasil, but they were a well-known and highly ranked guild in the game.
That being said, Pandora's Actor's race is a doppelganger, and as such has the ability to mimic any of the 41 guild players at 80% of their level. This along with his high intelligence makes him the most versatile of the guardians in terms of skills available, making him a good counter for anyone by picking a build which exploits the weaknesses of a particular opponent.
About the spell system in Yggdrasil, the game was known for its extensive variety of spells and skills, some only available by taking certain classes or class combinations which created synergies with each other. Each class has only 5-10 levels in a particular class so multi-class builds are a must as player reach higher levels. In terms of combined class levels, a level 1-9 player can only use level 1 spells, a level 10-19 can use level 2 spells, etc.. Of course this means that since most people in the new world think level 3 spells is the highest level most people will ever learn to cast then most people in their world are below level 30. The "realm of heroes" mentioned by Clementine is people who have exceeded level 35.
This means to use level 10 spells, a player has to be max level 100. Super-tier spells are spells more powerful than level 10 spells, but usually have restrictions on use such as long cast time, costing experience points to use, and other requirements such as minimum level. Certain class build combinations granted skills or gatcha items can reduce or eliminate these restrictions though. As a cash shop king, Momonga/Ainz was stocked up on several of these gatcha items which is where he'd got the 500 yen gatcha item Horn of the Goblin General than Enri used to summon the goblins who now serve under her. However, many of these odd specialty items had their own restrictions/hidden conditions as well.
14:35 Imagine your Limited Gacha Super tier magic that you spent hardly to get it, just get "Rejected" like snap in a new world that assumed 8th Tier Magic is a myth. 😮
17:47 back to rules for joining Ainz Ooal Gown
18:38 Yes it's Him 😂 and also Light Yagami lmao
Ainz is ashamed of pandoras actor because he made him during what Japanese call a chunibiyo phase (don’t know how to spell it) also known as 8th grade syndrome; where a kid is obsessed with seeming dark, mysterious, flamboyant, and edgy. That’s why pandoras actor was locked in the vault so people wouldn’t see him.
World items are literally game breakers. I can’t remember all of them, but I think the one used on shaltear was an item that can be used to control anyone in the game. Some others do stuff like like erase an area of the world, a book that can be used to make a new spell, a scroll that can lock a person into a maze like dimension, Gauntlets that steal XP and give XP, and more.
roundish 12:40 So tiers are from 1-10 with ten being the highest, Super Tier magic is above it, that type of magic takes a long time to cast, very interruptible and takes xp from the caster on top of having a cool-down unlike normal spells which just spend mana, in return they are very powerful.
Super tier magic is above 10th tier but below World level Items
As for Items I mean World Item is the highest one in game while below it is God Tier item those are the highest level Item anyone could make as for world items there is a lot more then 21 can't remember exact number but there are a lot there are only 21 that can be used once before spawning somewhere else
So I'll explain what happened to Shalltear because the anime doesn't. I put it down lower incase someone thinks this could spoil anything. (IT DOESN'T.)
Shalltear was hit by the world item "Downfall of Castle and Country" which can take control of anything regardless of resistance to mind control (It was the glowing white dress the old lady was wearing).
Shalltear lucked out because she threw her lance while the spell was casting so she was put under control but severely injured the caster before any orders where given preventing full control so she's stuck on autopilot and will attack anything that gets near her which is why the group just left her in the middle of the forest.
03:40 sooo the bunny ears are to expand the range of the Message spell
The true reason that Ainz persists to fight Shalltear by himself is he doesn't want to see the children fight, or even kill each other.
fun fact in the light novel momon does give the crystal to be instected at the table and everyone is shocked to see its true so thats a little diferent from the anime also the guy that gets killed by mare become an elder lich that is seen later in season 2 fighint the lizards
14:27 Lol. I forgot that scene where we see at least 5 other Vampire Brides. I recall thinking there were more when I commented, but could only remember some images showing three of them.
16:22 Just to clarify. Pandora's Actor is indeed the same race as Narberal Gamma, but with significantly more levels in his shape changing ability.
17:15 Only Inhuman races can join the guild. Anyway Tabula Smaragdina was playing a Brain Eater. You might also know them as the Illithid or Mind-flayers from D&D.
20:14 Since its becoming a bit of a thing with the battle maids. I'll explain what sort of creature Yuri Alpha is. Well she is a Dullahan. Which if you aren't aware are a humanoid creature from Irish mythology with a detached head. Most often depicted as a man in black clothing or armor riding a midnight horse while carrying their own head under one arm. Now I say creature since the origin is a little weird. Some tales claim they are an undead corpse. Some say they're a restless spirits. While others state them to be a type of dark fairy. Also yes. This is where the headless horsemen of Sleepy Hollow comes from.
11:40 - Just think of the Ring as a donator's items, which simply surpasses the game's 10 tier magic system. Yggdrasil (the MMO) was pretty much pay to win, which Momonga and the guild did (even though Momonga and Peroronchino were at "no donation items team", but later they succumbed to the donations)
Super tier - Donator's Item
World Class Item - think of them as an "admin tool", these in-game items were so powerful, they could literally change THE GAME'S WORLD. Because they're so powerful, there are a super limited number of them, and they're EXTREMELY strong, hence why they allow players to change the in-game world. Anyone who possessed such items literally had a bounty on their head, but it was also super dangerous to attack such players. If I'm not mistaken, AOG (Ainz Ooal Gown - the guild) had the most amount of World Class Items.
I think they had ~12 while the second place "only" had 4.
Funnily enough AOG was still never the strongest guild or anything, at best hovering around place four and dropping dramatically after the players left.
Magic goes from 1st to 10th tier. 'Above' that is Super tier. Super tier is more like a skill than actual magic; It doesn't cost mana to cast, Is limited by daily uses, or huge cool downs, And has humongous cast time. There exist items that lower the cast time though. Above 'Super tier' are World Items. Objects that basically work like an admin level, world 'edit' function. Of course, they have their own limitations and rules of use.
Partly why the alchemy kid is so dangerous.
22:24 yuri is the made....
The called him by his name (pandoras actor) few times betore showing him
Hi friend, nice to see you again. This chapter must have been the hardest to animate because it introduces a lot of LORE, but I think they did a decent job. But still I will try to explain some things without falling into the spoiler.
When Nabe communicates with Ainz she is seen wearing rabbit ears, this is actually a spell that many mages can use to increase hearing. Nabe uses them because she doesn't have thief or assassin skills to detect hidden enemies, so that way she can make sure no one is hiding to hear her. In the novel, Ainz also uses the spell on occasion, albeit with some embarrassment.
When Ainz, disguised as Momon, hears what the Adventurer's Guild report about Shalltear, he wanted to do his best to divert attention and was about to tell them that that vampire's name was actually Carmilia, but then he remembered that This name is widely used in games or Anime for female vampires and if a Player from their world heard it, they could deduce that Shalltear is someone from Ygdrassil. So, flustered and hurried, Ainz made up Honyopenyoko's name without thinking of anything specific, except that it sounded completely different from Shalltear and Carmilia. Hence the name he invented is so silly.
Adventurer Igvarge was a real piece of trash. He originally wanted to become a hero, but to do so he didn't mind resorting to dirty tricks like spreading false rumors about himself or using his companions as meat shields. For him all the others were but steps for him to reach the top. However, he was a hard worker and trained intensely, which caused him to intensely dislike Momon, who seemingly appeared out of nowhere and attained his mithril class in a single adventure.
In the novel, Igvarge ran away alone when Albedo set out to kill all of his team members, but he unknowingly ended up trapped by one of Mare's spells. Mare then pinned him down and killed him by crushing his skull with her staff.
The treasury door was designed by Tabula Smaragdina, the creator of Albedo, who as we know loved the Gap Moe very much. But he also had others passions and one of them was Alchemy, to the point where his player name meant "Emerald Tablet" which is a very famous Greek text on the subject and was believed to contain the secret to making the Philosopher's Stone. The password that Ainz pronounces is the translation of the line that is in Latin and that is a fragment of this Tablet. Even his three creations are also based on the Emerald Tablet.
And since we talked about it, I should tell you that, although in the Anime they take too many time to mention it, Albedo has two sisters. The three were named and designed as an allegory to the three processes of Alchemy: Nigredo (putrefaction), Albedo (purification) and Rubedo (reconstitution). To this day we know almost nothing about Rubedo, except that she is very powerful and hides on the eighth floor. But we do know about Nigredo, who is an NPC specialist in magic detection and in the novel she is the one who locates Shalltaer. Nigredo is nothing like her sister Albedo, as she is based on Tabula Smaragdina's other passion, which was horror movies, although (following the Gap Moe logic) her personality is much kinder than one would think.
An important detail that many do not notice is the ease with which Albedo orders "kill" Tabula Smaragdina when she recognizes that he is an impostor. Because even Yuri Alpha, the Battle Maiden, is a little hesitant to attack someone in the guise of a Supreme Being. Ainz attributes it to Albedo's great ability to make decisions, but it could also reflect that, as I already mentioned in chapter 5, she is not absolutely loyal to her creator like other NPCs, who always put first the orders of the person who designed them before those of other "Supreme Beings".
Now let's talk about Pandora's Actor. He is a doppelganger that has the power to mimic the forms of the 41 members of the Ainz Ooal Gown guild with 80% effectiveness. When Ainz created it he really didn't have anything in mind and just combined a bunch of things that seemed cool to him, but once put together, he found the result a bit embarrassing. His uniform is inspired by that of the Nazis, but before anyone feels offended, let's not forget that Japan and Germany were Allies during the World War II, so his view of them is not as negative as the one we have in West. Furthermore, while after the war the Westerners had to suffer the consequences of the destruction and then the Cold War, the Japanese suffered the effects of the Atomic Bombs that the US dropped on them. In Japan they value strong countries a lot, that's why they are always imitating England (which almost colonized them), the USA that defeated them in 1945 and Germany, which from their point of view is a great country of warriors that dared to face the rest of the world practically alone, twice, and almost won.
Of course, that is a thing of the past and the modern Japanese are not thinking of killing anyone, waging war or taking revenge on the allies. As I have already told you, they actually admire the US for having defeated them, as they admire all the strong. I'm just telling you that their view of the events in the World War is naturally different from ours. Also, it's fair to say that the Nazi uniforms looked pretty good. For all these reasons there are many young Japanese who admire, not Nazism itself, but the military power of Germany in World War II.
Pandora's Actor is an Area Guardian, which means he guards a sector of a floor and not its entirety. There are many of them and some are even more powerful than some Floor Guardians, like the case of Gurem, a Fire Slime that defends a sector of the floor from Demiurge and is more dangerous than the Demiurge himself. But the case of the Treasury is special, because it is separated in a different dimension and it is impossible to reach it by any direct route. The only way to get there is by wearing an Ainz Oown Gown Guild Ring.
Pandora's Actor's name and theme is seemingly based off of the Greek Myth of Pandora's Box, where a single mortal woman named Pandora was gifted a box that contained all of the world's evils within by the Gods and was specifically told by them not to open it, but due to the Pandora's immense curiosity, she opened it and released all the contents into the world. This, in turn, is the basis to Pandora's Actor's role as the Area Guardian of Nazarick's Treasury, of which he is tasked with protecting the 11 World Items currently housed within that all possess the power to completely alter or possibly even destroy the world.
The most significant sentence Pandora's Actor says to Ainz in the novel is: "Indubitably so, Lord Ainz! For as I was made by you, if you desire me to do battle with the other Supreme Beings, I shall charge into the fray without hesitation!" It is at this point that we confirm what I mentioned earlier: Normally NPCs will obey the orders of their creator even before those of other Supreme Beings.
Now a new level of Ygdrasill's magic is revealed to us.
For level 100 players the 10th tier of magic was the maximum and they had to use it carefully because it consumed a lot of MP and also some spells could consume Experience Points, which meant losing levels. This didn't matter much in the game because a player could recover Experience Points by killing monsters or doing quests, but in the New World it's not that easy. Ainz has many powers and powerful summons that he does not dare to use for fear of not being able to recover the Experience Points that they would cost.
Also, there is a kind of eleventh tier of magic, which would be Super Tier Magic, however, its characteristics are different. First it doesn't consume MP, so it's more like a skill. Then there is the problem that they take a long time to cast and then any player of the party won't be able to use it again for a long time. And finally, that some of these magic consume Experience Points. In short, it would be the Special Move in a video game, that attack that takes a lot of health off the enemy if you manage to do it right, but can be easily interrupted.
Wish Upon a Star is an eleventh tier magic that consumes Experience Points, but thanks to the Ring Ainz has he can use it about 3 times for free. In the game, he granted you some random wishes that many times could not be fulfilled and the administrator had to intervene. But in the New World there are almost no limits to what you can ask for. However, this time was unable to remove Shalltear's mind control because it was imposed by a World Class Item.
World Class Items are the 200 rarest and most powerful items in the Ygdrassill game. Ainz Ooal Gown's guild has 11 in total and the next ranked guild only has 3. That gives you an idea of how rare it was to have just one of them. World Class Items were so powerful because they could alter even game mechanics and each one had different abilities. Now I can tell you that the World Class Item that controlled Shalltear was the dress of the old lady who was killed by the spear of light and it can basically mind control someone even if they have immunity.
Among the 200 World Class Items there are 20 that are considered the most powerful, but disappear after being used once. In the novel, Ainz mentions that two of "The 20" are stored in the treasury, and that one of them could remove Shalltear's brainwashing effect, but he hesitates to use it because it would lose right after. That's why they have to defeat her.
The reason he went to the treasury is because the only way to be immune to the effects of a World Class Item is to hold one yourself. Ainz wants to give one to each Floor Guardian so that they are protected against them.
In the next comment I will explain why Shalltaer is so powerful. ¡Thank you very much if you read up to this point!
World items are the single most powerful things in Yggdrasil. So much so that guilds who had them were VERY hesitant about using them in combat because that meant you might lose them to the enemy.
One of Twenty is part of a grup of 20 world items that are basically nukes. As powerful as one, and also single use.
Super tier magic is magic that has a vastly longer cast time than any other magic and also an incredibly obvious tell, so to use it you needed a full team of people protecting the caster for a significant amount of time.
Yuri Alfa is the Pleades maid. My boy the saluter is Pandora's Actor and he's a doppelganger.
This is only an approximate explanation, but to simplify it as much as possible: Think of World Items as completely unique overpowered items. Limited amount, super-strong, only one of each in the entire world. Super-tier magic is just pumping up spells to be stronger than the tier system would normally allow. Rare, but doable by any player if they build towards it.
Another great reaction for a great series!
1- The guild master decide if someone climb multiple ranks at once, but otherwise, there are rules in places to follow. If you follow them and are able to complete multiple quests available to your rank, you'll be able to pass a test to see if you can advance in rank. Ains skipped the test because of his achievement proving he was at least of mythril caliber. That was what the guild master decided.
2- There is a reason he killed that guy and his team. He take the situation with Shalltear extremely seriously. What does it mean? If he want to take it as seriously as it's needed, even if only for the moral side of that matter (he see Shalltear as the child of one of his dear friend) he will have to face her under his overlord form, not his knight form. If those guys saw that, got out alive and spread the news, that would have ruined every plans and machination he had going. That's why he killed them like that.

3- Ok, I'll explain this. Super rank magic is over the rank 10 magic. It is extremely powerful, but it have it's drawbacks. The most important one is the extremely long cat time, something that make it virtualy impossible to use during a fight unless you use it as an oppening strike after an ambush. There is also the fact you can only use them a certain amount of times a day (usualy once) and can't get them back untill the next day no matter what. That ring let him use one of those spells 3 times before breaking, without cooldown and cast time. It did cost him a very large amount of money to get it, but it is extremely powerful.
4- Ok, something really badly explained in the anime is how world items works. Those are the most powerful items in the whole games. They virtualy give you some admin power when you use them. Somethings they could do are, for example, reating a semi-- cplan of existence in a part of the world where nothing can enter or exist and only those present at the moment of creation, friend and foes alike, will be inside, the only way to break that semi-plan would be to find and kill the item's owner. 2- A weapon that let you leech life for more than the damage dealt, passing through any protection and totaly indestructible who will return to your hand if you throw it as long as no one is able to catch it. 3- Like in this case, take an undead creature of any level under your control, bypassing their natural imunity to every mental effect possible. When you take that into account, Ains discovering that those items also exist in the new world explain his state of panic and rage and why he increase the security level to that amount. After all, there is no way of knowing if the opponent have any other world items.
5- No, that's what the character of the player who created Albedo looks like. It's only an avatar. Keep in mind there was an iron clad rule never to be broken to join Nazarick... You needed to be a non-human character.
6- Well, to understand Ains's reaction to Pandora's actor's acting, there is one thing you can do. Go watch the first video you ever did. I'm sure you'll cringe so much you won't be able to complete it. You changed since then after all, like every body does, and some of the things you did and liked in the past have changed and will make you cringe. He created that NPC many years ago after all.
7- There is more than 20 world items... What he said is he plan to use one of the 20 most powerful. To put it in an easy to understand comparison, there are many katanas, but very few of them were made by Masamune himself. Those are known to be among the best katanas ever forged. HE would be refering to a Masamune katana here.
8- Here I disagree with you. Ains isn't too hard on himself at all when he explain why he has doubt about him being fit as a ruler. He knew world items existed, he knew how powerful they are and he is actively looking for other players. Him not taking into account those players could have world items is a huge problem. It's like if a doctor forgot heart attacks can be a thing. It's like if a president forgot their opponent might have nuclear weapon or, to be more personal, you forgetting your kid could choke when he/she was still a toddler, all of them having the possibility to lead to extreme damage and death. It's that level of screw up. He does have to learn from this and take it very seriously, something he does. It's not being too hard on himself, it's re-evaluating himself because of such an important mistake. Oh, and before you or anyone takes it personnaly, it was an example, I'm not saying you did so, it's just so you can understand the importance of the mistake he made.
9- Ok, once again, something not explained in the anime. Albedo isn't the strongest in Nazarik after Ains. The strongest is one of her sister we won't see in the anime called Rubedo. She is such a monster she would have been able to take 3 of the players at once and win. But even if we take the floor gardians, she isn't the strongest. There is a trinity amoung them. Albedo is a tank, an amazing one. Shalltear is a warrior, once again an amasing one. Demiurge would be a, an amazing one. Normaly, in a one-on-one, Shalltear beat Demiurge who beat Albedo who beat Shalltear. The thing is, that's not entirely true. They have the advantage, but there is always teh possibility they will lose. All three of them are very powerful, so one mistake in that fight means a very high amount of damage taken, which could mean death. Albedo can't be certain she won't die against Shalltear, as she can't be certain Shalltear won't be able to kill at least on of them before dying. At that level of strenght, the smallest mistake means an awful lot. And... NO, Yuri isn't on the same level of strength. The floor guardian are at level 100, all of them. The pleiades are around lvl 80 or 90. Yuri is at that level. She is strong, but not as much as the floor guardians.
To answer your question about who's the strongest: the strongest npc is Rubedo(hasn't appeared in the series yet we only know she exists) she is Albedo's sister and was created using a world item; The 2nd strongest npc and strongest floor guardian is Shalltear and she is tied in strength with Gargantua(giant golem) but since Shalltear is sentient with a will of her own is likely stronger thanks to that; and after that we don't really know for sure but Mare is likely 3rd with Sebas being 4th. Albedo is the overseer of the guardians but is overall a weaker floor guardian as she is a tank, which is why she can't win against a dps like Shalltear.
29:17 The guardians are all level 100 and have different builds, making them strong in different ways. Most of them have gimmicks or lean hard into offense or defense, while Shalltear is properly optimized to be as strong in a 1v1 as possible.
World level items are essentially game breaking items. They are absolute and nothing is above them. There are 20 world level items and Ainz Ooal Gown holds the most of any guild in Yggdrasil at 11 items. As an example, some world level items could literally force the game devs to change something in the game.
So in this case, the mind control over shalltear is already set. The only thing is, she wasn't given a command, which is why she's motionless. Aside from using a world tier item himself, which he doesn't want to do because its a one time use item and he doesn't know what else is out there, his only option is to fight shalltear
Re confusion expressed at 32:05 so ainz has a bunch of world items from his guild stored away. Each has unique, game-breakingly powerful abilities. Back when the game was just a game, some of these world items actually involved the player triggering their item, getting a prompt to write a message to the actual developers of the game outlining what they want the item to do and then those developers going to work making it happen. Anything from completely changing the look and layout of one of the worlds in yggdrasil or making certain types of magic impossible to use in one such world.
The problem is that using one of these items is a one-time deal, once used the item is spent/vanishes. And Ainz is unwilling to spend an item of literal world-altering power just to remove the mind control effect on Shalltear. His plan is instead to defeat her and resolve the situation that way instead But Shalltear's race and class is basically vampire paladin, so she's got all the undead immunities and resistances to necromancy which is Ainz's strength... But she also has access to holy magic and effects which is the weakness of an undead like Ainz. Ergo she's the rock to his scissor. But Ainz plans to win anyway and thus prove that he is That Guy.
