A Handful of Hope | Overlord S3 Ep 8 Reaction 

I’m scared to think someone thought of that

f*cking hell, my imagination went nuts as soon as i finished reading this. i hate my brain

The perfect date

Holy shit, that's wild

Hekkeran was lucky and died relatively quickly after just few "loads". Imina (the half elf) wasnt so lucky... Breeding bed for parasites, every orifice. Not allowed to die, her mind gave out soon enough. The priest dudes mind was completely shattered after too much mind manipulation.

"That was a bit overkill if I was just going to use paralysis"

The funny thing is, even if they weren't the same person, Momon is only meant to be watching their camp. He's not part of the dungeon crawling part of the job.

@@SnowyWolborg they know that momon was never gonna come, but it would’ve been a good attempt at bluffing, if their opponent wasn’t literally momon himself

That and there is no way in hell any of his subordinates would say something like “Give Ainz my regards.” They always refer to him as Ainz-Sama or Lord Ainz

@@biglion4631 His subordinates also aren't in a position to just invite people to the tomb without first asking him

Yea that line sounds so generic. Gotta be high levels of gullible to believe that lmao

Kinda like how Bruce Wayne knows that the voices in his head wouldn’t call him “Bruce”

@@Spartan_Rage7 He would be very good at writing books thats for sure

You must imagine every second the light going on an off as he screams.

Nah it'd actually look cool ngl. Just repeating of the system trying to suppress his emotion yet he got angrier each time until it finally could.

Damn

But - does he get powers from that?

@@st2rseeker i dont remember but apparently, this is gonna be a spoiler so *SPOILER WARNING* The Six Gods that the Slane Theocracy worships are actually players that came to the New World(the world they are in) 600 years ago and apparently players are summoned to the New World every century and some of those Gods i.e. the players, had kids and so those kids and their bloodline are called Godkins which were the people who brainwashed shalltear with a world class item called Downfall of Castle and Country but she was killed before the mind control magic was completed so she was just idly standing there. Anyways the people that attacked shalltear were the Black scripture of the slane theocracy and the armored dude was the Platinum Dragon King, which they will probably face in Season 4(i hope) cuz they showed him in the opening. Yeah apparently the season 4 takes place during the volume 10, 11, and 14 of the novel and volumes 12-13 are gonna be made into a movie yeah I don’t know how they’re gonna fit in 14 if they skip 12 and 13 but those two are also quite separate to the main story so I guess it might work(vol. 12&13 take place in the Roble Holy Kingdom, my fav arc so far)

@@st2rseeker oh yeah to answer your question, it seems that having holy powers doesn’t have to mean that you believe the six Gods of the theocracy and the best example for that would be shalltear, she can use divine/faith magic while being an undead herself because the Gods she believed in are different from the New World people. But i still dont know if he got divine magic for worshipping a rock tho.

@@LeHarmacist it's never about gods, it's just the Tier Magic system that was brought from Yggdrasil, but of course no one knows that, aside from Ainz of course and the Dragon Lords

Depends on the definition of heroes. From Nazarick's perspective, we are the heroes. Our enemies are the villains.

It was just insanely evil when I first saw this and the last two. Ainz straight up entrapped the Workers and then tortured them ceaselessly. Before the things he did were either morally ambiguous or downplayed/glossed over. Now he's butchering adventurers he judged to be thieves (like all adventurers don't do exactly what these Workers do when it comes to tombs, which is why Momon is even there) but he literally set them up to be sent there.

@@VegaSlides look for the explanation in the comments of the last episode, it is still evil, but wasn't exactly for free they suffered this way, there were trials, and they failed all of them

@@VegaSlides they said they came for money, he offered each team a literal coffin full of gold and treasure that any adventure or worker can take and completely retire with. None of them took what they said they came for and continue fourth with the adventure and invaded his home.

@@Infurnace6699 they were hired to investigate the tomb though. I don’t think they could just walk away, even with treasure

Yea. My initial thought when i heard it in the LN (audio book) was touch me. Low key i was hoping it was touch me or bujin takemikazuchi/warrior takemikazuchi ot Luci*fer. Hell, even nishikienrai. But in all honesty, it a bit of an over kill to have nishikienrai or any others besides ainz. Its easy world domination.

@@saysomethingsmartcomeonent5233 there's a audio book?

@@toastedt0ast878 there is always youtube. 10 hrs worth for 1 volume

@@saysomethingsmartcomeonent5233 got a link?

I didn't particularly like this segment as I didn't find it really pushed anything forward and just felt like an excuse to do some malicious shit and not even really in a fun way, but I put up with far worse from other shows for a lot longer. Never considered dropping over it.

@@Reshapable It did push stuff forward, it showed the viewer the true horrors of Nazarick and just how inhuman Ainz has become. Every scene before, all we've been given are little hints of how sadistic and evil the people of Nazarick are, and how Ainz doesn't really feel anything for humans anymore, but the extent was never properly shown. At-least in the anime, not sure on the LN.

@@melanch0lycat5393 That's not pushing things forward. Now the viewer has seen that. What's changed? Ah nothing, we've just seen it. It's cool if that's enough for you but don't say it's something it isn't. And having to stop forward momentum to emphasize traits you wanted to express but weren't able to during said momentum is a crutch play, ideally you would combine the two. Instead we made a pit stop so Ains could pee on some orphans. Again not a big deal but not my favorite part of the series.

@@Reshapable What's changed? Idk, maybe it being the entire catalyst for what happens afterwards? Or did the fact that they used this event as justification to confront the Empire not matter? What's changed? Idk, maybe the viewer's perception of the characters and Ainz himself? Seeing as how a lot of fans dropped this show because of this one episode, I'd say it did a good job of that. Also I don't think it affected the show's momentum at all, if anything nothing much was happening before this.

If it was a show from the West you’re certain the twitter cancellation would have worked, so glad that it’s from Japan cause they don’t care about that lmao

Well... Technically Ainz and friends just defended their home from thieves and murderers. They left huge ass treasure outside for people who were there just to get money for living. Everyone who still went to the tomb were just greedy thieves.

TRUE, the whole reason I side with Eren on AOT.

Also because like Ainz is completely valid. I'd be upset too if people broke into my home to try and rob it, while I was inside it, and get mad at me and my family for defending our home. They could've just went "Ah, shit. Our bad. We were under the information this place was unoccupied. We'll just give you your stuff back and get out of your hair", but instead they all kept digging themselves into a deeper hole.

@@pwojo9776 To be fair, he did mention that he wasn't a fan of inviting the robbers - after all, Ainz manipulated the old wizard from the Empire (his name eludes me atm) into sending those robbers to Nazarick. So imo the outrage at the worker trying to make up an excuse involving Ainz' friends is authentic, but the outrage at the robbery was basically crocodile tears.

@@kaizokuo5850 Paradyne Fluder!

Please Tell me her parents got karma in any way

That's sad, there's no Sebas for them

thats what slaves were for m8 its like sebas's chick.

In an alternate timeline arche wasnt killed but became shalltear's slave and her 2 sisters were still sold off

@@cgaminganims7046 it was in a webnovel

Oh didn't know they died, knew they were sold into slavery but where did they mention they died?

@@arno7163 Pretty sure that isn't in the novels but was confirmed by the author on a twitter Q&A

Yeah those "parents" of hers.. buying expensive shit when they can't afford it.

Twitter means nothing. If it's not in the book, I don't care.

@@everforward5561 true the authors words are useless unless they are in the LN

Tea spoon?

@@LazyDeath666 probably smaller tbh

@@LazyDeath666 I would say a invisible spoon 🥄 🤣

Let me pull out the world's smallest spoon

For an emotion-suppressed Lich, his level of feeling can be really inconsistent.

I think the really messed up part as they were probably the nicest out of all the other thieves and they got the worst pubishment like even that dude with the elf slaves got off easy. This was pretty fucked up.

@Pelcogo Well, he had the fortune of running into Hamesuke. If he had run into anyone else he wouldn’t had been so lucky. Also his slaves are now official members of Nazarick living peacefully on Aura and Mare’s 6th floor.

What’s really f*ed up is what the author said happened to Arche’s sisters. Which I personally argue is not Ainz’s fault, because in truth the blame should fall on the f*ed up parents that endorsed it. Basically her parents sold the twins into slavery to pay off their debt and continue to live as nobles. The little girls died some time later from over work. Maruyama has a dark imagination.

@@jacobjohnson8635 That makes me feel a little better but I still have this feeling of intense dread inside of me that won't leave. I don't know why this show bothers me so much I watched saga of tanya the evil just fine.

OOOOKKKKKKKK this was interesting.

I’m really glad the author did go with this route for the light novel. Just comes off as a fan service ending for the character. Which makes sense given that the fans voted for it.

It's largely irrelevant given the author changed that in the light novel.

Yeah, but after that, Arche got to live peacefully with her sisters in a cottage, as reward for teaching Ainz how to dance and act in a formal ball.

@@rickkcir2151 yes and the author hated that so he never did any polls for his fans about that ever again lmao. He literally was disappointed that people chose to spare her. I’m very glad that the web and light novels didn’t consider each other canon to their own plot and are their own separate stories.

Twitter means nothing.

And don’t forget about the two lovebirds, they didn’t get off easy either. They were made to house a certain area guardian’s family, and no it wasn’t the roach dude but something similar. The worst part is that they never died, they were paralyzed, so in Nazarick death is sometimes more preferable than living.

@@everforward5561 It means a lot when the Author of the story tells you what their fate was.

Yea, crap like that makes me dislike the show an lightnovel.

I remember reading that the two girls were sold off and then found out that it was the author himself that confirmed their death. The light novel ends with them being sent away

Fuck Ainz.

wut... this is... roshi sheera and lupa. not RockDLee channel my guy...

@@cerberushydra2378 All people in both channels are friends in real life, research before saying stupid things friend.

@@ultraleitor ok this still doesn't answer the question on why this is posted here... relating to director nasty and rockdlee... which they reacted to this episode about a year ago... like... why this comment... on this video? for what purpose?

@@ultraleitor its like if you made a video, and I posted a comment saying your friend ( who isn't in the video whatsoever) reacted great on your video... but they already posted their video like a year ago with their reaction. there's no point or purpose to it really. the comment's relation to this video is litearlly nothing... like at all...

I can see him doing that with the staff

Kind of Ironic since Ainz considers Jircniv as a friend even after the raid.

so did he got exp?

@@rajprabhakar3371 prolly not

@@rajprabhakar3371 the experiment on himself failed and didnt got exp in a other class nor did he got exp beyond his level cap

Honestly i think the word “justified” is unusable in the overlord world

@@i.k5696 The word itself isnt, but if you put quotation marks on it, it kinda does They invaded Nazarick, so Ainz had to retaliate, it's "justified"

@@i.k5696 Listen man, you're either loyal to Nazarick or their enemies. And I don't any reason to have any mercy on enemies. Justified is very much usable.

You wouldn't normally call dungeon explorer's thieves per say as monsters aren't usually higher functioning or have ownership of goods. Unless you think Bell from danmanchi getting butchered would be justified as he's a dungeon theif

That is a point a lot of fans don’t realize. All of the workers were aware that there had to people living in the tomb, because it was too clean and maintained. Yet, despite that information, their mindset was still “take what you can and kill anything that gets in your way” It was only whenever they were faced with forces they could not best that they tried to negotiate. To Ainz the workers were no different than you’re typical home invaders. Who wouldn’t kill to protect their home and children?

He lost his empathy when he was turned into a skeleton. He's a sociopath. It is not an "innocent" evil as you say. Ainz is well aware that what he is doing is evil, very evil. He just doesn't care anymore, as he lacks empathy for any living creature. And his evil deeds benefit him and Nazarick. A child can be evil, but it's usually because they are ignorant of the greater world. Not because they genuinely don't value anything else, they are just immature. Ainz evilness doesn't stem from the same place. He is just pure evil, 110%. Fully aware and accepting. He kills people, uses them as food or hosts for parasites, and revives them just to do it all over again. Need I remind you, he was also a human once too. It's a great show, don't get me wrong. But let's call it how it is. Ainz, and his companions, are terrible monsters that none of us would ever want to meet in real life. They sees us as nothing more than resources or numbers. Life is not sacred to them at all.

He is an anti-villian

@@jacobburns1095 a childs evil is devoid of morality ... it is literally the same .... you are attatching morality to it in the view of knowing what is or is not good by emotion - a child does not know the emotion to assighn to an action witch is why it is devoid of morality so ... no im am right . his actions are based on a goal the morality of it does not factor into his choices . he literally said so in the beginning - why can i see this and feel nothing . then again - hmmm i felt nothing after killing that soldier it seems i've become undead in both the mental and physical capacity . i could give about 19 more quotes to prove it from the light novel if you like .

@@jacobburns1095 after re reading my reply it sounded so matter fact .... that wasnt my intention i was just tryng to show the difference in how he acts vs how we percieve his actions . .... hmmmm best way i can put it ... if a child harms an animal we see it and know its bad we gain emotion from the act and react accordingly . with him being pulled from his humanity the connection to that kind of thing is shifted to his ppl and non humans but for humans we are as air to him meaning he is no different then the child that doesnt know to feel an emotion from the action. what makes it that much more powerful is that he is aware of that fact ..... i know that was long but i hope it cleared up a few things .

Looks like Jacob deleted his comments when he got... *burned* .

I wish Arche would be a maid or something in nazarick together with her sister the parents can go to hell

He probably doesn't have any magic! Ainz: *Takes of ring* HE HAS MAGIC!!!!

calm was working but he was so angry that whenever he was calm he got angry again and again

Shhh don't say Sourcerer king yet!

@@TakonoTakoUwU Pretty sure they've finished this ages ago in Patreon.

As Ainz said, quit spamming these copy/pasted comments, you attention seeker.

@@gamerbear84 come on he's just trying to get to the featured comment in the next video lmao

Eldritch Horror Time

Wait until Jaldabaoth attacks Holy Roble. His creativity of using human body for his experiments knows no bound.

They do this with Soul Eater too, like how everyone's soul has a unique shape, color, pattern, etc, and the Grim Reaper doesn't seem to have one when the MCs look at him, until it zzoms out and you see his soul encompasses the entire city

Yeah. It was so dark that Maruyama didn’t even write it in the novel, but he explained when asked during an interview.

Ainz is an anti-villian not sure why people are confused.

Na is for is Isekai :v

It's not omitted the original episode that was aired had the bedroom scene and additional somewhat more darker scenes. People often forget that the clean version of episode didn't start from redo the healer.

The one they were brought to was never shown, that’s a different npc

Yep the readers got to vote on it, but the author didn't like the route so they changed it for the manga 🥶

@@cruzer49 web novel, the original story. The official story is as you see here

That was for the web-novel since the fans voted for it, but the author didn’t like it so he went with this route for the actual light novel. Which is good honestly, cause this version makes a lot more sense. The web novel just comes off as a ham handed “happy” ending.

Considering Shalltear, it's debatable as to whether slavery would be better

@Loz lz it limits his power in exchange of boosted XP gain.

wow that's dark
