Hello and welcome back to the podcast.
I'm Michael.
I'm Noe.
And we are the Knights of Entertainment, a podcast covering your favorite and unknown
movies, games, comic books, anime, and more weekly.
We appreciate you being here and hope you enjoy the show.
This is what we are covering tonight.
Tonight is the final recap, season four of Overlord.
But before we do, like, share, and subscribe to the channel.
You can enjoy the show on YouTube, Spotify, Odyssey, Rumble, and more.
We appreciate you being here, so let's go ahead and get into it.
Alrighty.
So, last three weeks, we've done all the other season recaps.
We're on to the very last one that's been aired.
At least one of us can actually finish this series.
Not naming names.
I didn't leave everybody stuck in season 30.
Alrighty.
So, same as always, we're going to go through every single episode.
Again, 13 episodes in the season.
So, episode one of season four is titled Sorceress Nation of Ainzalgon.
So we have Ainz.
He's depressed and is surrounded only by his loyal servants and misses his former guild
members.
So he's kind of just...
He's down on the dumps today.
Yeah.
So, Ainz establishes an orphanage in Erandel, which is the city that he won during that
battle.
Yeah.
He ended up getting Erandel, which is a big city, to identify talented individuals at
a young age for the benefit of Nazarik.
So all the people that lost all their moms and dads during that war.
They make a side child soldiers?
What's he doing?
He's figuring out who has talent among them.
He also hires widows of the dead who re-est these soldiers as workers to provide for them.
So that way they can make a living.
Jesus, Demi takes their wives.
Yeah.
Man, it's cold in the ice.
Then you have Elbedo.
She's clashing with Aura over spending too much time with Ainz at this point, because
she doesn't get to spend as much time with her.
With Ainz, anyway.
It's like...
She's thirsty.
Yes.
Making Ainz consider sending Aura and Mare, the two Elf twins, out to make friends.
Like if there's an Elf nation or something like that that they haven't discovered yet.
So he's like, maybe they need to go get some friends instead of hanging out with me all
the time.
Elbedo reveals Erandel is suffering a lack of resources as merchants are too scared to
visit now that Ainz is king.
It's like, fuck that.
It's a fucking undead lich.
I ain't gonna go to that city.
Elbedo is granted permission to visit the Riesti's kingdom at this point, though.
On her own as an ambassador, because she wants to go meet with the nobles and stuff of that
kingdom.
As Pandora's actor, still has an annoying personality that irritates the hell out of
Ainz Lagone.
He suggests he would be proud if he grew beyond his original programming.
This is Ainz speaking to Pandora's actor.
Though he asks this be kept secret in case the floor guardians think he is showing favoritism
to Pandora's actor.
Since it was his creation.
He doesn't want the rest of them to think he's showing all that favoritism towards him.
But he's like, start thinking for yourself a little bit.
Start relying on every little damn thing to come down from me.
Think for yourself a little bit.
Like if I give you an order, mull it over in your mind to think of the best way to execute
it for the good of Nazarick.
Kind of like Demiurge over here, you know.
Just don't rely on me because I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.
Pandora's actor does reveal that while posing as Momon, the raven-black soldier, many humans
have been asking him about Ainz.
Ainz worries that the floor guardians see him, still see humans as lesser creatures.
So he doesn't want his floor guardians to look completely down upon humanity as like
worthless basically.
So it's kind of a fear of his that they're just going to think, eh just kill them all.
Just fuck them.
Ainz approaches Einzak, which is just a longer version of his name.
But Einzak is the, he's the master of the Local Adventurers Guild.
Guild master basically.
Since Einz's death knights, Einz Ul'Gon's death knights, keep the peace, a lot of the
adventurers' security work has dried up.
So there's no monsters to kill around Erantel.
There's nothing for them to really do.
Damn.
Out of a job, huh?
Pretty much.
So Einz asks to absorb the guild's goddamn scabs.
The death knights I could take and destroy if I could consider.
So Einz asks to absorb the guild into his kingdom and put the adventurers to work exploring
unknown lands and establishing diplomatic ties with undiscovered kingdoms.
Basically allowing them to be true adventurers instead of just hired hands the entire time.
He wants them to enjoy the journey, the adventure, which is something that he couldn't do with
like Momon.
Like, but as a leader and a king of the Sorcerer Kingdom, he can.
Get on out there and beat somebody.
Pretty much, yeah.
Because you have the guild master saying, well, you can have this guild.
And he's like, no, I want all of the adventurers' guild to be part of my kingdom.
He's like, I have the military might.
If I wanted to go to war with somebody, I could.
I don't need adventurers to do that for me.
I just want them to have fun and go out and actually adventure.
So he's trying to be nice.
He's a regular player.
Yeah.
He's kind of like players.
Ainz announces his plan now is to rule both human and non-human species in a kingdom where
all can live in peace together in a utopia.
That's his actual plan.
Rather dimmy or schwan-side or not.
Episode two is called Riesti's Kingdom.
Ainz worries his plan to establish a peaceful kingdom might clash with his servants' plans
for world domination.
Princess Renear establishes an orphanage in Riesti's to identify magically talented orphans.
Kind of the same thing that Ainz Algon was doing just in the main part of the kingdom
itself.
As Prince Barbaro, which is the one that was killed by Lupus Regina last season, he's still
missing because they don't know that he's dead yet.
As Prince Barbaro is still missing, his brother Zanuck becomes acting crown prince of the
Riesti's kingdom.
Deeply affected by Gazuf's death, Brain seeks out children with sword skills to potentially
replace Gazuf in the future.
Albedo arrives in Riesti's and she meets with Zanuck, the prince.
At her welcoming party, a minor noble named Philip Monster-Rat, which is just like monster-rat.
Basically saying he's a rat.
The name.
Is he a monster-rat or is he just...
That's kind of how it is.
Just letters twist through my legs, but yeah.
And amored by Albedo's beauty and seeking to improve his family's standing, he invites
Albedo to a party at their mansion.
Because Albedo is like this otherworldly beauty according to all these people.
So like she's got the porcelain skin, she's got nothing, no flaws, no nothing.
She's a succubus.
That's her whole thing.
So whenever a normal human sees her, they're like automatically enthralled as soon as they
see her.
So he is.
He's enthralled and he makes his way to her.
His father is furious as Philip's older brother died fighting against the Ain's.
But Philip is adamant, establishing a relationship with the sorcerer kingdom would benefit them.
Meaning basically he can outsmart the sorcerer kingdom on his own.
This rat.
Monster-rat.
Rats are pretty intelligent.
Yeah.
A rich commoner named Hilma Cygnus has been supporting Philip financially and hopes to
profit from him once he inherits his father's title.
Albedo is completely disgusted whenever Philip touches her because he puts his arm around
her shoulder and you hear a crack in the anime.
Like it's her veneer cracking.
But when you look at her, she still looks the exact same.
But you can tell that she's like, the fuck are you touching me for?
So a quick little like mental.
Like snap.
Yeah.
But her face and her demeanor, none of it changes the entire time.
But you hear the crack audibly.
He looks at her.
He's like, what was that?
And Philip, believing he has made a good impression, shares with Hilma his plan to seduce and marry
Albedo.
This minor knoll.
Hilma, who is secretly under Albedo's influence, offers to have Philip murdered and replaced,
but Albedo lets him live temporarily.
So basically Hilma is one of the A-fingers.
The one that got her legs busted open by Mare, the one where I was talking about how he got
the staff and just smashed her legs and then drug her off by her hair.
That was Hilma.
Jesus.
And she got eaten out alive completely, not just in a sexual way, but she got eaten alive
by Keohokal, those roaches.
Right.
That's her.
She's what?
She's a husk?
Well, she was restored.
Like over and over and over and over, like it just mentally broke her.
I imagine so.
She remembers being eaten alive.
Right.
So this is the same Hilma.
This is-
So she's all fucked in the head then?
Like well, she's like automatically, she's completely devoted to the sorcerer kingdom
now.
Like she would never go against them.
That's Stockholm syndrome, huh?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
So Hilma and Albedo secretly meet with the nobles who actually matter, aside from the
monster rat person, and begin planning to elevate the shortage of supplies in Irantil.
Because that's their whole plan is that they're going to just make a shortage of supplies
for the Riestes kingdom.
Princess Renear, who established the orphanage under Ainz's orders, is rewarded by Albedo
for her loyalty.
So this is when we find out that Princess Renear is also working for Nazaricka.
The Riestes kingdom's princess.
Jesus.
The little demon.
I'm trying to jive.
Same fucking place.
Yes.
That's why she set up a guild, or not a guild, but an orphanage the same way Ainz has done.
Like she's literally doing everything that he would do.
And copying him.
So she's selling out her own kingdom.
Which is really fucked up.
Episode 3.
Baha'ruth Empire is the title.
So before Albedo has departed for the Riestes kingdom, we went back in time a little bit.
Ainz gave her a world item.
G'nengagab.
I'm going to fuck up this name again.
I always fuck up these names.
G'nengagab, which is a staff with a floating black orb on top of it.
But it's a world item.
So since he gave her a world item, it prevents her being brainwashed the way that Shaltir
was.
So because if you have a world item, a world item can't affect you.
It was basically how it goes anyway.
So he's given her that.
And Albedo was then surprised when after requesting for a goodbye kiss from Ainz, Ainz kisses
her on the cheek.
With what?
With his teeth.
Fuck.
Elsewhere, the cardinals of the slain theocracy, which is the kingdom that we met the first
season when that was attacking all those little villages and stuff.
They're discussing the sorcerer kingdom and Emperor Zhirkniv, the two of them.
Their spy, the Thousand League Astrologer, which they call them, secludes herself in
despair having seen Ainz use his 11th tier magic to massacre 130,000 men.
So he killed the sacrificial ones of 70,000.
And then there was another 60,000 that were killed by his baby goats.
So 130,000 people died from one spell.
Damn, that's a lot.
That's half of the entire army that the Riesti's kingdom had last season.
So without any, without enough information, the cardinals decide to spy on Emperor Zhirkniv.
Meanwhile, Zhirkniv is unable to handle the stress of dealing with Ainz and losing the
war and it's causing his hair to begin to start falling out.
So he pulls his hands away and all you see is just hair.
Like hair in his hand?
Yeah.
Sounds like my life.
It's like just the stress of dealing with that.
So Zhirkniv hopes the slain theocracy will be secret allies with him against Ainz Legone.
So he hires the adamantide adventurer Silverthread Bird.
It's a new group of people that we meet as guards while meeting with their representatives
from the slain theocracy.
So he's meeting with these people coming in from the slain theocracy.
As a gladiatorial display in a Colosseum, Zhirkniv meets the representatives, but in the Colosseum,
the Emperor's strongest gladiator, the warrior king, is suddenly challenged by Ainz.
Zhirkniv has no idea this is even going to happen.
So the main, like the strongest warrior that they have in the Colosseum is going to fight
Ainz now.
And he knew nothing about it.
He's like, when the fuck did he hit him?
I gotta change my bets.
So Zhirkniv panics as he believes Ainz somehow manipulated the entire meeting to force Zhirkniv
to either support Ainz or publicly betray him and ask the theocracy for his alliance.
So in his mind, he thinks that since he's meeting with these slain theocracy representatives,
that Ainz somehow 40 chested to where he's going to have to publicly choose Ainz or the
slain theocracy.
And that was never like Ainz didn't even think this far ahead.
The theocracy accuses Zhirkniv of conspiracy, but remains steadfast in opposing Ainz, who
as an undead is the enemy of their temple.
Ainz leaves for his duel and Zhirkniv begs the high priests to at least watch Ainz's
fight and maybe discover his weaknesses because he thinks that maybe they can figure something
out about him that he can't.
So then we move into episode four called the ruler of conspiracy.
So following Albedo's departure, we go back to where that started again, to the Riesti's
kingdom, Ainz decided upon a publicly publicity stunt to show his power and his mercy.
Along with Ainzac, the guild master, Ainz will go and smuggle himself into the Bahruz
empire.
Smuggled himself?
Because he teleported in there in a carriage.
Because you have Ainzac, the guild master, he's like, we're in the empire.
When did we get here?
Oh, we passed it a long time ago.
He doesn't even tell him how they got there.
Ainzac pointed out hiring experienced adventurers could be problematic.
So it would benefit Ainz to train amateurs.
Like people that want to be adventurers, Ainzac thinks that it would be smarter to hire new
recruits so that way they can go actually be adventurers rather than like veterans.
Ainz decides a fight in the Coliseum would advertise to potential trainees.
So Ainzac setting up a meeting with a fight promoter for the Coliseum.
Ainz meets with Flutr, the head mage of the Bahruz empire, to gather information and rewarded
his loyalty with a book detailing the exact nature of souls, the Book of the Dead.
So he gives Flutr paradigm, literally the our earth's version of the Book of the Dead.
It says when you can learn how to read this, you'll learn mastery over life and death.
Because he has no idea what it even says.
He lets him use this little monocle that lets him read like a few lines of it and everything.
He's like, no, no, no, I need that back.
You can't have that.
And you see I'm almost crying like a little kid, but I want it.
So he lets him have that book.
Meeting Osk, Osk is the fight promoter.
Ainz takes an interest in a runecrafted sword from the Dwarven Kingdom.
Osk arranged for a fight with the warrior king, which now we jump back to the present.
So now in the present, Ainz meets the warrior king in this Colosseum.
The warrior king, a troll named Gogen, who is actually intelligent, unlike Gu from Gogen.
Yeah, good game.
GG.
It is GG.
He decided that he likes Gogen.
Ainz offers to hire him should Gogen lose their fight.
And he agrees.
For the sake of fairness, Ainz uses no high tier magic and equips Clementine's triple
daggers, those ones that can create lightning and fire.
So he equips those to himself so that we can actually fight.
She's like, what the fuck?
Where's my shit at?
Well, she's dead.
Remember?
Oh, no.
She got crushed to death.
Oh.
With shit just popping off of her, all those little like badges.
Oh yeah, that one girl with all the badges that she stole from the other guild members.
Yeah.
So he's using her daggers.
It's like, isn't that a turn of events?
Gogen is thrilled to have faced somebody of Ainz's strength and swears to one day reach
his level.
Ainz kills Gogen and announces to the audience that his desire...
Are you not entertained?
Kind of, yeah.
His audience, his desire to train adventurers to explore the entire world and that they need
not fear death in his service as he resurrects Gogen before their eyes.
So not as like a death zombie, but he actually fully revives him.
Out of desperation, Zherkniv, because he's like, oh fuck.
So out of desperation, he requests that the empire become a vassal state for the sorcerer
and fire.
He's like, anything.
Let us just be a vassal state.
How about that?
Ainz hesitates to the agreement, but agrees to negotiate the details.
And then Zherkniv hopes to survive by being at least useful as one of Ainz's servants.
He's like, you know what?
Fuck it.
We're not going to win.
Just make us a fucking vassal state.
I'd probably call my scientists back home.
How far along is the nuke?
Then we go into episode five.
It's called In Pursuit of the Land of Dwarves.
So now we meet Kinship for you.
Orfs.
Stale people.
Short stale people.
You have Albedo suggesting to Demiurge that Ainz is unhappy with his plans.
And Ainz wants him and Albedo to arrange for the empire to become a vassal state.
Which is kind of freaks Demiurge out because she's like, so how long would it have taken
you to get the empire to become a vassal state?
And he's like, at least like a year.
Well Ainz did it in two days.
Like she's bragging about Ainz's ability and it's like he didn't even try to make him a
vassal state.
It just happened.
And Demiurge has all these plans.
He's like, fuck.
Like how did he do that so quick?
It's like not being that bright.
It actually helps.
Ainz hopes to make an alliance with the Dwarven kingdom to gain access to their rune technology.
Which is like carvings into actual weapons and equipment rather than just enchanted,
magically enchanted items.
He takes Aura, Shaltir, and the Lezard man, Zinburu, who has experience with the dwarves
apparently during travels.
As in Zinburu anyway, not Shaltir or Aura.
Ainz hopes that the experience will broaden Shaltir's mind and that she'll actually learn
something at this point instead of just rushing in to kill people like she did in the first
season.
Because she'll just go mad and go into that blood frenzy that she has.
In private, Ainz reveals that the runes are from the Yggdrasil game and wonders if another
player who taught them to the dwarves are still around maybe.
Aura suggests to Shaltir that she should try to understand Ainz's actions.
Like take what he says and actually apply it to your life rather than just writing shit
down at all times and not understanding any of it.
They arrive at Feo Redho city, but find it abandoned except for Gondo Firebeard, a dwarf
miner.
Who have firebeard?
Mmhmm.
Ainz explains his interest in an all-in.
Is he a redhead?
Yeah, he is.
A redbeard.
That bush must be wild.
Because whenever he first comes up, you have Aura goes up to him and it's like, hi, how
are you?
You happy, lucky little Naruto looking kid.
He tries to hide himself because he's got this cloak of invisibility.
The dwarf puts it over himself and kind of like crawls away or whatever.
And Aura, she's following him the entire time just watching it.
He's like, well, I guess this is fucking useless.
Because she's got the ability to perceive the invisible stuff as a hunter type character.
So the way she was built at a level 100 NPC, she can see through the low level invisibility
spells.
Like, you'd have to have an ability that Ainzal Gond would have, which is perfect and knowable
to even try to hide from her.
And then you have Ainz is like, oh fuck, it's an undead run where he tries to drag Aura
with him.
And she's like, no, that's my boss.
He ain't going to hurt you.
So then you have him explain that he explains his interest in an alliance and in the runes
themselves.
Gondo admits not many runesmiths remain since it's easier to use enchantments on weapons
than it is actual runes.
So it takes time and like actual knowledge on how to do it.
And dwarven society has been declining for years.
Ainz offers his support and helping the dwarves recover their pride.
So Gondo or Gondo swears his loyalty.
They encounter a new race called the Quaga, a race of mole people that eat metal to make
their fur more impenetrable.
Mole people, mole dog looking creatures.
So basically whatever metal they eat, their fur kind of takes on those characteristics.
Huh.
Kind of a unique.
My god, they had a man seem to be over.
Yeah, they really would.
Ainz orders Shaltir to capture them alive and is pleased when she correctly deduces
his reason for doing so, which is to basically figure out what their point is.
So she uses charm on him.
You know, I need one.
She captured all of them.
It's a control lesser species and it's just an area of an effect that Shaltir has.
Ainz learns that the Quaga are a support force for a army led by a clan leader, Peyri Uro,
who at the very moment is leading an army to destroy what is left of the Dwarven Kingdom
that had already left this city that they're in right now.
So then we move into episode six called the Impending Crisis.
The Quaga army attacks the stronghold Fealjera, which is where the dwarves are now.
Ainz arrives and offers assistance to the general who is so desperate he accepts immediately
even though he looks at him.
He's like, oh, fuck, now we got to deal with an undeadly elder lich too.
With the Balrog and everything, my God.
Ainz's death knights push the Quaga back, but two of them are destroyed when the Quaga
pack leader, Yulz, destroys the bridge they are standing on, dropping them into a bottomless
chasm.
And Ainz thinks that somebody killed them rather than them just falling because he knows
that they were destroyed, but he doesn't know how.
And it took a little bit of intelligence for them to cut the ropes.
It's like, oh, fuck, we can't beat these, drop the bridge, destroy the bridge.
Ainz offers the dwarves a Regency Council of Trade of the excuse me.
Ainz offers the dwarves Regency Council a trade alliance as well as Ainz's guarantee
of protection.
So basically saying that if you give me your rune smiths and that technology, I'll offer
you all the trade and I'll give you protection that way you don't ever have to worry about
the Quaga again.
Ainz also offers to reclaim the dwarven royal capital of Faol Bacana from the Quaga because
they've already taken that over, despite the Quaga's numbers and a frost dragon living
nearby.
So he'll do all this for the dwarves in exchange for all the rune smiths relocating to his
kingdom out of the dwarven kingdom.
So he wants all their rune smiths and he'll destroy dragons, the Quaga and get their city
back for him.
I want all your women.
He's not even asking me.
He don't even want the women.
The hottest one.
I want them all.
Despite their reservations, the council agrees.
Ainz meets the rune smiths and informs them that he wants them to be that he wants them
to totally revive their craft and they gladly accept.
Dando Firebeard is touched that rune crafting and art practiced by his family for generations
will be saved from decline.
He also offers to act as a guide to the royal capital in exchange for Ainz's complacency
and stealing a valuable book on runes from the treasury that's in that capital that nobody
else has been able to get to because it's got a magical lock on it so even the frost
dragons haven't been able to get into it.
Ainz instructs Shelter on strategic thinking in case they meet whoever killed the death
knights.
So basically this is where they see that the bridge has been cut but he still doesn't
he thinks that there's a being that actually killed him.
He still doesn't realize that they just fell off the road bridge because again Ainz is
smart but he's like he's overthinking it thinking that somebody was strong enough to destroy
his death knights rather than them just falling.
But at this point Aura realizes that they fell.
So Aura goes to go tell Ainz it's like hey and you have him turn around it's like shh.
So Aura shuts up even though he's just telling her to be quiet because he's talking to Shelter
he doesn't she takes it as oh you already know so this is like a complete disconnect
of information around there.
Ainz also looks forward to meeting a real dragon in person because he's been waiting
to meet dragons from the very first season because they're the strongest creatures in
Yggdrasil so he wants to see what they're like here.
Going into episode seven titled Frost Dragon Lord.
That's the title of it.
So we have Yolls which is the one of the Quagga he's reporting his defeat to Pei Riro who
visits the frost dragons I'm gonna fuck up this name.
Ola Serdark.
Yes and he meets him in the royal palace that they stole from the dwarves hoping to persuade
him to attack the dwarves.
Ola Serdark since his since one of his sons Hienmaul these are like Norse names those
points an overweight coward dragon that has a gigantic stomach and glasses.
Glasses wow.
Yeah.
Quite the sight.
Hienmaul is so scared he immediately surrenders to Ainz once he meets him.
He hits himself.
He actually pisses himself.
Damn.
Literally.
After then you have Ainz he goes and he kills Ola Serdark.
The leader of the frost dragon.
Oh not the fat one.
Not the fat one he keeps the fat one as a pet for aura even though it's intelligent they
can speak normally.
That's a pet now.
So a slave then okay.
Ainz then helps Gondo steal the rune book.
He uses this magic item that can unlock any lock but there's like a set number that it'll
actually work on from the game of Yggdrasil.
The Sea Otter King from Sky Elder Scrolls?
Kinda yeah.
There was one in I don't know if there was one in Oblivion though.
Skyrim I have no idea.
Well there was one wasn't there?
Skyrim yeah there was.
Had like an unlimited one.
Yes it was completely unlimited.
Did you keep it or did they take it from you?
You could keep it.
I think I was.
I didn't finish the quest.
Oh yeah you have to finish that damn quest.
Yeah.
If you ended up like the guild leader of everything and you couldn't do a damn thing with the
guilds.
And none of them ever respected you either.
Right.
Who probably spit in your fucking face.
Yes that is kind of what happens.
Xaltir is wary of whoever killed the death knights until Aura reveals that Ainz always
knew the death knights fell into the chasm.
He just hid it so Xaltir would think that there was a strong enemy requiring her to
think strategically.
So Aura is telling Xaltir it's like no Ainz knew all along that's why he shushed me.
Even though Ainz really does not know.
He's like he's still the one that's oblivious to it at this point.
By Ainz's orders Xaltir offers Riro a chance a choice.
Either all 60,000 Kuwaga swear loyalty at this moment or she will kill all except 8,000
males and females and 2,000 children.
So it's either swear loyalty or you have what like 15,000 people left.
Sorry 10,000 10,000 total.
So 8,000 males and females and 2,000 children.
So he's like do it then.
Riro chooses to fight.
And that's my boy right there.
But he is devastated when Xaltir kills 50,000 of the Kuwaga on her own.
Hey man.
He's looking at it like fuck you just even in the anime you see body parts just flying
through the air.
Blood trail of them.
Why she's just standing there just spinning chopping the shit out of people.
It's like damn.
I'm making a fight at least and then I was trying.
He's like go my strongest guard.
And then they just get.
Alright my second strongest go.
Third Q2.
And then he's like well we can't choose how many died but we can choose who dies.
So.
Except for 10,000 they did leave 10,000.
I thought they were gonna kill.
It was either all 60,000 loyalty or you get whittled down to 10,000 total.
Your choice.
It would have been so much easier just to surrender.
But they seen one person thought I'm not here for easy.
I'm here for a head on collision.
Well at this point Riro swears loyalty after all this.
And Ainz.
He should have killed him.
You can always kill the leader that kind of you know spoke against you.
And then I'm glad another leader.
I think the biggest reason is they have no fear of him at this point.
Cause like what are they really gonna do to him.
So he swears loyalty and Ainz promises both the dragons and Quagga will prosper in his
kingdom as long as they remain loyal to him.
Shaltir then shares what she learned from the experience and Ainz is proud of her.
Ainz summons Demiurge to report on progress of the Holy Robel Empire.
And Demiurge is impressed now that both the Empire and the Dwarven Kingdom's loyalty and
through a series of misunderstandings now believes that Ainz has formulated plans for
at least the next 10,000 years.
Damn.
That's a lot of years.
Because he asked him he's like how far do you think ahead Lord Ainz.
And you have Ainzl Ghosn like thinking in his normal like thought process.
He's like what was that old Japanese saying for be prepared for 10,000.
He says like 10,000 years that life.
10,000 years.
No wonder I haven't been able to catch up.
It's like and then you see he's like.
I didn't mean that.
Sure if you want to believe it.
Episode 8 is called an unexpected move.
We start off with Demiurge.
He's manipulating the whole the Robel Holy Kingdom into trading with the Sorceress Kingdom.
Philip, the person that was hitting on Albedo before.
With him.
Tannys death.
Becomes the new prime becomes the new Baron Mosterat.
But his farmers are unable to farm as much food as Ainzl Ghosn is undead.
And his finances suffer when Ainz gives food to the Holy Kingdom for free.
So they stop buying from Philip.
Damn you're bankrupting me.
One of Ainz's food deliveries is then stolen and the threat of the theft is traced back
to Philip.
So he stole shit from Ainz now at this point.
After Albedo and Ainz interrogate Hilma.
The person that was supposed to be watching over this little fucktard didn't work out.
They bring her in.
Hilma is surprised whenever Ainz blames himself instead of her and becomes devoted to him
even more describing his mercy to the other eight fingers whenever she comes back out
of Nazarick.
So basically he's like.
So it wasn't your fault.
And Albedo she's like no.
Hilma was in charge of this baron Philip and he should have she should have known what
he was doing.
And then he looks at her but weren't you in charge of Hilma.
And then it's like but I'm in charge of you.
So I'm the one at fault.
So like he doesn't blame any of his subordinates he ends up taking blame for it.
He just says like it's not your fault you're all stupid it's my fault for choosing you.
Exactly.
And that's the way they take it.
Albedo explains to the floor guardians that Philip was supposed to incite the commoners
into rebelling against the nobility.
And that was her plan.
They didn't realize that Philip was as stupid as he is.
And they were supposed to peacefully absorb the Riestes kingdom into the Sorcerer's kingdom
but Philip provoked a war instead.
Ainz agrees an example is required but privately is not happy his plan failed.
Ainz then sends a letter to the Riestes king warning that the Sorcerer's kingdom, Baharith
Empire and the Dwarven kingdom, dragon kingdom, the Robo holy kingdom and a powerful figure
called the Faceless all hold the Riestes kingdom responsible for the attack on the transport
and may declare war.
With all these kingdoms against the Riestes.
They're sending a letter.
What if he just said that chart and it says on one side it says find out and one side
it says fuck up.
Or fuck around right?
Fuck around and find out.
Who fuck around?
Find out.
And he puts where the kingdom is at and where the fuck around is and where the find out
is.
He's getting real close.
King Rampasa, Zanuck and his minions are trapped between fighting a war that they know they
cannot win against Ainz or blaming everything on Philip and hoping Ainz shows mercy to them.
Albedo then arrives at the end of this episode which surprises everybody and she is surprised
whenever Rampasa offers his own head in exchange for the mercy of his kingdom.
He's like I know that nothing can basically be good enough but how about my head?
Will you take my head to prevent war basically?
So then we move into episode 9 called Countdown to Extinction.
So it's a fucking music video?
Is that one of the shit movies or one of the songs called Countdown to Extinction or some
shit?
You mean the final countdown?
Yeah.
Give us copyrighted room.
What if it opened up just to that?
That is kind of how we open it.
So Albedo, that's how we start off this Countdown to Extinction episode 9.
Albedo refuses Rampasa's head and declares war on the Rhaestes kingdom though she promises
Ainz will use no higher tier spells as he wishes to enjoy this.
So he's like you want to commit any war crimes son?
Then we have Brain who now holds Gassif's sword Razor's Edge, the one from the end of
season 3.
He's deciding to evacuate his sword students out of the Rhaestes kingdom before Ainz moves
in.
Demiurge moves soldiers to surround the Rhaestes kingdom preventing other countries interfering.
Ainz worries victory will not be easy since more can be learned by experiencing failure.
The Floor Guardians won't actually learn anything if they win without trying.
Epistonia's requests, which is the maid that's not one of the battle maids, she's just one
of the maids of Nazarick but she's the one that I showed you that has a dog head.
Long time ago, you can watch our battle maids episode, you'll see her there.
A dog head?
Yes a dog head.
Robbed the game of thrones.
Named Pistonia.
They put the dog on Robb Stark, what was his son's name?
Robb Stark?
Yeah Robb.
Put his dog on his head.
Yeah.
Where is he?
Oh god.
Yeah.
That was brutal watch.
Well this is more like a stuffed animal.
Long live the king of the north.
So at Pistonia's request, Einz visits the frozen prison on Nazarick's fifth floor to
see her and Negretto, Albedo's older sister.
Which is one of the characters that we talked about on Area Guardians, long time ago we
have an episode on it.
Where she's got like no face and she carries gigantic scissors.
Oh yeah.
Creepy looking one.
Yeah.
He goes down by her lead, Pistonia and her.
Pistonia.
Pistonia, I...
God.
I had like cake or something like that.
Like it's like a sweets or whatever is their last name.
Pistonia come butter.
So we have Negretto on Pistonia's wish for Einz to stop massacring humans as they believe
humans have infinite potential that Einz is wasting.
Einz agrees but points out that the need to set an example of what happens to kingdoms
who oppose him.
He's like yeah I agree that humans have potential but they need to fucking die when they fuck
with me.
So then you have Einz.
I gotta move this.
There we go.
Things have been like wobbling everywhere today.
He decides to massacre the coastal kingdom of Enol which is part of the Rastis kingdom
but leaves some humans alive for them.
So he's like I'll let some of them escape.
Fine.
So he's like mountain Njol which hires the four armaments which is another adventurers
team basically.
Mythril level adventurers so they're not adamantite but they're like right below them to protect
Enol.
One of them, Lilianette, agrees to marry Enol's 12 year old son in exchange for the Enol family
heirloom the five colored holy sword and she's one of those freaks where she starts drooling.
She's like don't you have a 12 year old son?
Cause she likes him young.
It's like uh uh uh.
I saw a legal hunk.
Don't ya?
So then you have the four armaments are almost overwhelmed by two of Einz's death knights.
He's got a normal death knight with a shield and sword and then he has a double sword wielder
death knight and then a group of zombies but the zombies are really not that big of a deal.
So they're getting overwhelmed by it but then they're saved whenever the death knights are
easily destroyed by an adamantite level adventurer wearing red flying armor from the adventurer
guild drop of uh red.
Cup of red.
And it looks like a fucking Gundam.
So we go from fantasy to cyva.
Gundam.
Yes.
Gundam huh?
Yeah.
It's very just a little like a nod to Gundam.
Maybe the guy like Gundams.
Well uh we do find out um I don't necessarily they don't say it I don't think but uh the
armor was something that in the game of Yggdrasil was given out to new players after the game
had already been out for a long time.
So that way they could get a head start within the game.
Like it was one of those bonus sign in things for new players.
But uh.
A lot of people made those fucking fake accounts.
Yeah.
Grab that armor real quick.
Oh yeah and then you traded it for themselves?
Yeah.
So that was that was what the kind of armor it was.
It was called power armor I think.
I'm just like man I didn't I couldn't get that what the fuck.
You know I'm sitting out right I remember that armor.
So uh it basically uh whatever people were brought into this world hundreds of years
ago one of them had that armor.
And that's how this armor exists in this world now.
Because the person that's flying the armor is not a player.
Who?
So we go into episode uh 10 which is called the last king.
So Ainz recognizing the armor from Yggdrasil.
He's like fuck I want that.
He lets Enoil survive and moves his army to the Rhaeste's capital to destroy it.
The Blue Roses which is the one of the groups that we met before that fought with Demiurge's
alter ego Yaldabaoth.
We have that group and then we have the drop of red which is the guy that was flying this
power.
That was a great drop of red.
Yeah.
I like that name.
Whose armor wielding leader Azuf is Lachius's uncle.
So the leader of Blue Rose her uncle is the guy wearing the red armor.
Cool.
And he's a freak.
He's got two whores whenever they meet up beside him.
They are summoned to meet a special forces group from the theocracy.
The Black Scripture.
Which is what Clementine was part of too at one point.
The Black Scripture.
Who ask them to switch loyalty to the theocracy to fight Ainz but they refuse.
So basically the Black Scripture comes in and it's like we want both of your groups
to join us.
And they're like nah we're good.
Fam.
Azuf plans to fight Ainz alone to save Rhaeste's.
So he's going to put that battle armor on and he's going to go fight Ainz alone.
Zanuck meets with Ainz and demands to know why Ainz has ignored his demands or his attempts
to surrender.
So basically this is on the battlefield you have both armies facing off against each other.
You have Ainz and then you have the Rhaeste's kingdom.
The Prince Zanuck he goes to the middle of the battlefield and he requests an audience
with Ainz.
And Ainz agrees.
That's where this happens or whatever.
He's like why are you ignoring me?
Why will you not let us surrender to you?
And you have Ainz he admits he is using Rhaeste's as an example to other kingdoms at this point.
Saying you fuck around and you find out.
Do you see the chart right here?
Look look look.
It pulls out a fucking pig ass chart.
Then you have the Prince Zanuck he demands to know Ainz's ultimate goal.
And in a moment of genuine honesty Ainz admits he is seeking happiness.
That's all he wants.
He wants all the people of Nazarick that have been entrusted to him in his mind anyway.
That all his friends have left him.
Like all these NPCs and stuff like that.
All the items.
He wants those people to be happy.
That's his only goal.
He couldn't give a fuck about this new world whatsoever.
He just wants his Nazarick people to be happy.
So Ainz also learns Gaz of Sword is with Brain at Rhaeste's capital.
From Zanuck.
That's what Zanuck says.
Zanuck wonders if he was actually ever fit to be king whenever they part ways.
He's like that was an actual king.
Like looking at Ainz this is what a king is supposed to be.
And then you have Ainz thinking the exact same thing of Prince Zanuck as he's walking
away.
Since he's just a normal person and not really an overlord.
He's like oh so that's what actual royalty looks like and acts like.
So returning to his army a group of nobles are so terrified that they betray Zanuck.
The traders then bring Zanuck's head to Ainz to pay him for mercy and present them Zanuck's
severed head in a bag.
Ainz demands to know where Zanuck's armor is.
And also as it also belonged to Gaz of.
He then he's like yes yes yes.
Really he allows he's like what do you want from me then.
What do you want in exchange for giving me Zanuck's head.
And they say safety for our families.
That's all we want is safety for our families.
It's like okay okay.
Or go ahead and open the gate and let him back into Nazarene.
We're gonna go ahead and protect them.
And then he stops her.
He sends them he sends them to Nuranus.
The Cthulhu bitch.
All those people get sent to Nuranus at the frozen prison promising them that they will
receive mercy.
That mercy being death once they have begged Nuranus to kill them to escape her true expert
torture.
And then whenever he tells Ora send them to Nuranus and she says okay.
And then he stops her like grabs her arm physically like kind of roughly.
And he's like and what if they demand to die.
Don't kill them right away.
Make it torturous.
He wants them to suffer as much as possible at this point now.
Instead of just giving them a merciful killing.
You will let them die like you will let them die whenever Nuranus wants them to die.
Because of how they betrayed the king or this prince.
Like it irritates him so much that somebody would betray one of their friends supposedly
that he's like no no no.
You're gonna suffer for eternity now.
So disgusted by the noble's actions, he hands his army to Kokaidos and Mari with the order
to completely massacre the Riesti's kingdom using any method that they desire to use.
No holds bar at this point.
Because he said he's just lost interest.
Instead of taking it like having fun with the war.
He's like you know what.
Like his true elderlich nature.
Like he kind of slips into being a true elderlich at this point.
Of saying just like them all.
Let them all die.
After he sees how they act towards each other.
So then we go into episode 11 which is called Well-Prepared Traps.
We start off with Ramponsa the king.
He's mourning the death of his son.
Believing it marks the end of his kingdom completely.
Cuz Zanac is dead at this point.
Shaotir retrieves the eight fingers including Coco-Doll.
Which is the sex slave trafficker that we met in season 2.
Whom she gives to Kyokuko to test Coco's loyalty.
So you have Helma she's like you'll enjoy it after it's all over.
As Ainz advances on the capital.
Azuth flies to stop them and fight Talbedo.
Ainz is ambushed by another warrior in Platinum Armor.
Riku and Gia.
So Riku is technically the dragon that we've seen from the first season.
There was a Platinum Dragon that was basically he's the leader of a council state.
Different nation.
But he's controlling this armor remotely.
And Ainz doesn't realize that it's a remotely controlled piece of armor.
He thinks it's an actual person.
So Riku who traps Ainz in a barrier that he cannot break.
So we have Ainz getting ready to fight him in a barrier that he can't even get out of.
Ainz realizes the armor is eventually being controlled remotely.
And battles Riku after he refuses to become a subordinate.
He's like here join me join my kingdom.
And he's like no I ain't joining your kingdom.
Back into a corner.
Ainz takes the unusual decision to kneel and beg for mercy claiming he is the victim and
re-esthees the criminals.
Riku agrees but claims Ainz went too far so he has to die.
And then you have Albedo break through the barrier to defend him.
Basically since she's carrying a world-class item it breaks through that barrier with
no issue.
Was it a world-class item that trapped him?
It wasn't a world-class item is what they find out but it was a an ability that existed
from Dragon Lords.
They don't know this obviously at this point because it's further in the books but.
Not the anime?
No but you find out that this barrier is on par with a world item but it wasn't from the
game.
This is something that existed in this world way before the game elements came to be.
So it causes Riku to retreat after Albedo breaks through because she's like getting
ready to fuck him up with her world item because it can transform into an axe for her.
So she's in a rage and just cracked the armor completely.
So Riku he let's see here where was I?
Okay so it basically causes Riku to retreat and regroup with Azuth the one that wears
the red armor.
Riku is revealed to be the Platinum Dragon Lord.
To Riku anyway or to the audience basically you find out that this is the Platinum Dragon
Lord.
He is curious that Albedo broke the barrier while Ainz could not.
Meaning either Albedo possesses a world item because he knows about world items this Dragon
Lord does or she is actually stronger than Ainz.
He theorizes that Albedo might actually be a player and Ainz an NPC.
Wait so this guy is a player too?
No the Dragon Lord worked with players at one point is what you find out and back in
time like when you went backwards in time people that had been sent to this world before
he knew these players and they tried to explain it to him but he doesn't know like the full
concept of player room and NPC.
He knows the words but he also he can't how would I describe this?
Can't comprehend a video game.
He can't comprehend a video game whatsoever but whenever he says the word player he like
they put it in the subtitles even where it's misspelled slightly because he knows the word
but he doesn't know what it is.
So and he begins to make plans to destroy both of them.
He also considers whether to kill Azoth in order to give his Yggdrasil armor to someone
stronger because he's like oh so you couldn't beat Albedo huh even with that red armor.
Ainz and Albedo return to Nazarick where it is revealed that Ainz is actually Pandora's
actor the entire time.
It was never really Ainz and the real Ainz was observing the battle for Nazarick the
entire time.
He's like fuck fuck.
He demands that Pandora's actor tell him everything that he learned of Riku because he sent him
there basically as a scout to figure out all his abilities his powers everything about
him and then he asks them to place him at a level.
So you have Pandora's actor saying that Riku or this the plan Dragon Lord basically would
be at a level 90.
Then you have Albedo thinking that he's more somewhere around 85 and then Shaltar thinks
that he's level 80.
So they all have their own dropping them down.
Yeah because they've all fought him at this point now.
So you have Albedo fighting him when she broke through the world barrier.
You have Pandora's actor constantly fighting him and that's why he places him at a 90 and
then in the first season the person that had the world-class item that was able to brainwash
Shaltar was friends of the Platinum Dragon Lord and he she fought that armor as well
and it kind of fucked it up.
She's like level 80 it was nothing.
So we move into episode 12 called Invasion of the Royal Capital.
So Ainz is curious about Riku's barrier skill which Albedo broke through since she carries
the world item that she has.
Ainz concludes that Riku must defeat them again so he can learn more.
Though he is reluctant in case he is killed and cannot be resurrected.
But he kind of doesn't want to die.
He's like if I can avoid that I will.
Princess Rhaenyra she visits Brain.
Lachius and the Blue Roses and Rhaestes where the Blue Roses betray Lachius.
If they poison her they beat her until she is too weak to resist evil eye hypnosis.
So the leader of the guild is attacked by her own guild or her own.
There are traitors everywhere.
They reveal that Lachius had planned to stay in Rhaestes kingdom to fight so they decided
to take her with them by force to keep her alive.
And that was the whole reason they attacked her and used the charm spell on her to make
her do what they wanted because they knew that she would even if they left she would
stay to fight.
So the only way to get her to leave was to fuck her up enough to put her under a spell
to leave.
Jesus.
And she can heal herself so it didn't hurt her too much.
Preparing to teleport out of the Rhaestes kingdom they offer to take Brain and Princess
Rhaenyra with them to safety to a distant kingdom wiped out centuries ago which they
decline.
Brain in particular refuses as he hopes to duel Ainz but he gives Gazeth's sword to
Princess Rhaenyra and climb to return to the king.
Return to the king.
Kokaitis and Aura arrive and begin destroying the city at this point.
So Brain while searching for Ainz he encounters Kokaitis who agrees to duel him after a brief
introduction.
Despite his training and increased abilities Brain is killed instantly by Kokaitis.
Piggy's like no Brain!
The funny thing is though is that Brain the swordsman at that point whenever he fought
Kokaitis he had reached higher levels than any human ever of this new world by powering
up the way he had like whenever he fought shelter and stuff training and stuff he got
power more powerful than Gazeth Stronoth the old head warrior that had died any he had
reached past the peak of any human on this new world physically and then he survived.
Kokaitis is impressed by Brain's skill and warrior spirit.
Following Ainz's lesson on strategic thinking Kokaitis reasons that Brain might have value
so he collects Brain's sword which is the just a normal katana sword as a trophy and
has his body frozen to potentially be resurrected later should Ainz wish it.
So he had enough intelligence to say he might be worth something in the future for he's
him.
Then we move on to the final episode called the Witch of the Falling Kingdom.
As the attack on the capital continues Princess Renear convinces the king to have Clime hide
all the royal treasures around the city hoping Ainz will want to obtain them and thus spare
more people.
At least this is what she tells to him.
Oh a treasure oh a treasure.
Elsewhere Aura raids the city's magicians guild and there's a little group of people
that come out to try to stop her and she just blows their head off with an arrow because
she's a bowman as well so.
After completing his mission Clime returns to the palace only to find Ainz on the throne
and the king dead with Princess Renear holding the sword.
Razor's Edge.
Having Ainz has charmed the princess into killing her father.
Clime challenges Ainz to go into a duel but he's easily killed.
Bring her deck out we're gonna duel.
The funny part too is that whenever Ainz is holding him he's like at this point in a normal
protagonist story this is where you gain powers that would allow you to destroy the evil ones
such as myself.
But this is real life.
He just throws him across the room bringing up one of those tropes of something like a
Goku or something like that.
It's like in normal fantasy you'd be able to beat me but this is the real world for you.
So however Ainz is later resurrected and finds that Princess Renear is now a demon.
While Renear claims that she was forced to swear loyalty to Ainz a later conversation
with Albedo reveals that she was willingly sold out her own country the entire time just
so that way she could be with Clime for eternity.
Geez right everyone's betrayed everybody.
It's all I'll say there's nothing but betrayal.
It's all in Ainz Algon's favor.
So Princess Renear then asks Clime to become a demon like her so that she wouldn't be alone
which he accepts because she calls him her puppy.
Meanwhile Albedo then visits Philip the one that touched her and we all heard the cracking
glass from her who expects a thank you for providing her a casus belli for this war.
Instead Albedo tortures him to death revealing that Philip's father requested that she punish
him for his actions.
What they don't show in the anime but they do have in the light novels though is that
she said come view the forest that your father wanted me to show you and all it is is like
Vladimir like Dracula shit where it's just people on pikes and that's the forest where
she left them all just on spears dead in the front yard.
Hanging from their buttholes?
Could be.
That's what he used to do didn't he?
He used to put them up there by their buttholes and just they would sink into it.
Yeah.
Or is that a different trap?
I don't know he's a fucking weirdo.
Yes basically she killed them all.
The whole one in a very gruesome way.
Put them by the throat.
Then all you hear is screams from the departure from the mansion.
Tim my butt off.
In the aftermath of the war Ainz meets Marcus Raven and puts him in charge of the kingdom's
former territory.
The sorcerer king also asks the marquee if this conflict made the world understand the
foolishness of opposing him to which he affirms that it did leaving the overlord satisfied
with his outcome.
Because he's sitting on the throne of a like a rubble throne of the kingdom because literally
the entire kingdom city is gone after Ainzalgun takes over.
He literally left it in pure ruins at the end with a crown sitting on the edge of this
like this stone throne and then the scepter hanging off to the side where it's like one
of those images of like he's like alone in this kingdom of ruin and he's got all those
other like nobles like marquee raven that's why I said he's one that you would actually
a name that's easy to remember because he comes back at this in this season and takes
over the entire lands basically to rule them until Albedo or Demiurge come up with better
plans.
So he's like continue to rule your kingdom in your normal way.
He's like so do you think I did good?
The marquee's like don't never forget this.
He's like okay then it was worth it.
Never forget this.
Don't never forget this.
And then at the end of the episode it says and the end begins.
Don't never forget this.
Exactly.
Find some trap somewhere.
Something.
That's how we end season four.
We tied up a lot of loose ends.
Stuff like that.
But you never you can never put a rubble down.
Rebellions.
Any questions?
Why are they called light novels and not manga?
Because it's chapter books.
Oh it's actually books?
Yeah it's actual books.
I don't know if there are manga of I haven't really.
Overlord?
Yeah I haven't really looked.
I know that the light novels are extremely popular.
Like when you look up anything that's written.
Why light novel?
Did I just say that in a pronunciation?
What do you mean?
What's the light novel mean?
Because it's 250-300 pages.
That's a light?
Yeah.
Like a novel.
Think of Harry Potter.
Yeah but Harry Potter was you know.
A thick bitch.
Yeah a thick bitch right there.
Didn't I say that one?
That's why you brought it up.
Something very big.
But I mean like a regular novel is like 200-300 pages.
Like I think they're saying that it's like a.
I guess Japan has a whole definition of light and fat.
And 900 pages is a normal novel to them.
Like 3000 is like a thick bitch.
Yeah I think I still have the first one.
The first light novel from that.
But it goes into a lot more detail than the actual anime does because they obviously leave
stuff out.
They got more stuff to say.
But if you ever try to find books for Overlord I don't know if I've ever really seen the
manga come up as much.
Like I know they probably do exist because the anime obviously exists.
But uh.
But it went from novel to manga to anime.
No it went from web series to light novel to probably manga.
Yeah there's web series before.
Did I say One Piece?
Yeah.
The same kind of thing.
The guy that created Overlord loved Dungeons and Dragons.
That was his thing.
Like his uh.
But he never had, apparently he never had anybody to really play Dungeons and Dragons
with.
It's all in my book of life.
So he just created a whole novel.
Well yeah how about this then?
But like I said we're in season 5.
They haven't said whenever it's coming out.
There is supposed to be a movie I think later this year or early next year that takes place
in season 4 between a couple of episodes.
Like the whole movie?
The whole movie does.
It's about the robal holy kingdom that Demiurge was dealing with.
The ones that they were trying to send food to.
It's basically an entire arc of just Demiurge the demon.
That's why he wasn't in season 4 as much.
Because he was doing his own thing.
Doing his own thing?
Yeah.
Must be that popular.
Yeah.
Because it was like in the books it was like the way they had it like season 4 didn't go
like in the same order as the books.
The books like continued on but they took those two sets out that had to do with that
kingdom so that way they could make a movie of it rather than installing it in the fourth
season and adding it to just episodes.
So now we're just waiting for the fifth season to come out eventually.
Season 5.
And no word on that.
It's 2025.
Considering that the first season of Overlord came out in I want to say 2015 or 2014?
Let's see who wins.
One Piece or Overlord?
In time.
Who comes out first?
Let you still be Overlord.
Probably.
They'll finish up completely.
They've been doing One Piece.
This is the final arc and the arc's already like 100 chapters long.
And any questions or anything else to add?
No, I'm good.
Cool.
We will see you guys on the next one.
One Piece all the time.
