All Players in the New World (Overlord Explained) 

Minotaur: Tries to bring appliances to the new world. Also Minotaur: Fails to do so because of his low int. At least he tried...

This video re-opened a grave wound I had for the series. The last Volume is 17 and there is still so much more to the world that we will never know now. I know that the author is burnt out of telling this story and it's understandable why. But it still kills me to know that my favorite story will never truly have a conclusion.

I do want to concur on the level of the players, it is hinted that the earlier players ie the 6 gods and the others were not that as high of a level like ainz. they were from level 60-90 at best

Note to self when isikaid, always pick undead class for immortalities sake

I wonder if Ains would know any of these other players, or would they know him? his guild was very well known in the game

I hope Maruyama makes a prequel about the first Players who came to the new world. Im curious about the events that transpired before Ainz came to conquer it. Im especially curious to see that Minotaur guy who talked about appliances and surgery. Heck, he may have even been a Doctor or a Surgeon IRL. That Minotaur guy seems like a cool guy.

This was very eye opening. Interesting.

Wait, so if the Eight Greed Kings were killed but were resurrected by even an inferior spell compared to Ainz's resurrection magic, then what if Ainz manages to resurrect a player that died in the New World? Overlord being an anime that takes much of its magical system from D&D, it may be likely that Ainz has access to magic that can resurrect people that have died long ago as long as their bodies are still at a certain level of preservation. Ainz should take great care for he may resurrect someone that can kill him.

1- It was never said that one of the Six Gods was an Elf. 2- The 6 Great Gods never teached any New Worlder how to use Tier Magic because it was impossible for them to use, except the Players them selves. It was the 8 Greed Kings who made Tier Magic possible for the New Worlders through the use of a World Class Item known as Five Elements Overcome. Also, it was never said that Slane Theocracy developed "Colored Circles" to show which god they worshipped. Yggdrasil spell circles has nothing to do with the New World. Also, the 6GGs never saved humanity, they only looked for their own people, it was the 8 Greed Kinds who *actually* saved humanity. 3- Surshana was never described as you said, the only appearance e got is that Surshana *heavily* resembles Ainz. 4- 8 Greed Kings didn't conquer the world because of how much strong they were, the reasons behind this is unknown. Plus, they didn't specifically target Demi-humans and treat humans well, they just mascaraed whoever stood in their way whether it was Humans, Demi-humans or monsters. Mostly it was the demi-humans who did. Also, they didn't target Dragon Lords, it was instead the Dragon Lords who staged a war against them and attacked them. We don't know why the 8 Greet King's civil war started, the "because they were too greed"' is not actually confirmed, but it was just a New Worlders talkie talk, otherwise it would be a Theocracy propaganda. 5- 8 Greed Kings weren't just a reason of Tier Magic spread, they *were* the actual reason behind it. 6- It was never said that the Minotaur Sage's equipment saved the country from the Beastmen invasion.

Man. Becoming a player in the new world, despite the level of power they had. Seems absolutely terrifying. I couldn’t imagine killing a close friend of mine that I used to play games with for a while over some reasons the new world has put before them. Being forced to deal with such a volatile, dangerous world. It’s a cool concept but I wouldn’t want to be cast into it, despite how cool and op my mmo characters are

Ayyyy, great explanation! I really enjoy this series and would love to see more of this since I’m not the kind of guy to read novels, but not that I hate them tho

Such cool names: the 8 greed kings, the Minotaur sage, the 6 great gods and the sorcerer king. Ainz will definitely gain the attention of future players if he ever does die given his guilds renown within Yggdrasil.

I’d love to see more players. Make them have close ties to ains oal gowl guild or rivals. If they been there ages, some may want a way to get home.

Ok I know I’m late to the party here but at 2:34 when you said that he was prob an elder Lich, that would be incorrect. Past lvl 80, they are the race of “Overlord” which is what Ainz is, something that the light novel touched briefly on that I wanted to point out. Love the vid tho overall

The thing I would love to see which seems very unlikely is a player outside of the guild Anis Ooal Gown spawning and reacting to Ains being in this new world. Especially if they were part of the initial raid on Nazarick.

I only had the anime to go of but based on things said in the series I have theorized that players that stayed online till the final countdown were sent to the New World but at different times. It's also quite possible that Ainz won't be the last player to show up and since Ainz is an undead its possible that like the player Lich before him he'll eventually come across a new group of players. Since he won't age and die..by natural causes. It's good to see my theory of players coming at different times proven.

man, that's so cool, the history and lore of this world...usually most isekai have a single isekai'd character be some type of chosen one, but here, Ainz is just one of many isekai'd characters, and the world is already shaped greatly by his predecessors. Like, fights and showing how op you are is cool and all, but lore and interactions that RESULT in fights is even cooler. Slane Theocracy's sunlight scripture having strong(?) angels to fight Ainz is great, but then it's revealed that they have this items due to the players that left it behind centuries ago? It's not a convenient reason, it all fits in perfectly. It's why Theocracy is the strongest human nation.

Okay so we can agree that the reason players are being summoned is due to the world items they either had in their possession or were nearby like satoru's world items being in his vault or his red orb being on his own person Alright THEORY TIME I believe that players were pulled depending on how powerful they were and how strong the world item(s) they held were So with that being said.... ainz is level 100 and has the most world items so it took longer to pull him and his guild base (if I remember correctly the guild Ainz Ooal Gown had the most world items out of anyone in yggdrasil)

Considering Momon guild was considered to be unbeatable, i can only imagine how strong his guild was when all of his core member presents, these so called greed king probably turn tail one they saw that banner "Oh shit! Is that Ains All Gown guild, frick this man, let's run"

I love these lore dives. Wish this history was shown more in the magna and light novel.

This is in my recommendation and I love it

Just stumbled on this series. Appreciate you covering this topic. What happens to players in the new world? Will they ever return to their own world? And how do they end up in the new world in the 1st place?? Hope to see more videos on this topic. 👍🏼

3:50 the ability to use 10th tier magic starts at level 64-70 and after that super Tier Spells can be learned

Thank you so much for the efforts

But that is a good message for Ainz: if every hundred years new players join the new world, the chance that Ainz is the last of them will probably be very low, so he just need to survive 100 or 200 years for the next players and maybe leave some hints about his origin, so other players could know learn about his story even if he wouldn’t make it.

Thank you for making this video

Since history is written by the winners or survivors, I'm betting the greed kings were actually trying to play the heroes by going to war with the Dragon Lords who were the tyrants of the time, but since the Greed Kings "Supposedly" killed eachother out of greed and not some other reason, history only remembers them as villains, the theocracy and the dragons likely lied about them after the fact. Just my guess though, after all they really could've been genocidal lunatics, or wannabe conquerors, or apathetic toward the world and using it to strengthen themselves the same way Ainz is. I suspect we'll have an answer on them at least by the end. Weirdly no wave of players survives past a century.

Thank you so much for the information ℹ️.

Thank you for this information.

Great video

Thak you for your explanation.❤️

I feel that after the overlord concluded where ainz was involved, we will have overlord spinoffs on other players

Imagine they give us an on par player level with ainz and gives us the most epic battle of what a high level players can do

Imagine if shurshana instead of waging war to the EGK decided to just outlive them then take over gaining significant power then fast forward to anime timeline ainz doing world domination encountered shurshana and the stage is set for some Overlords war about old gods vs new gods. Not necessarily good vs evil but just differences on how to make a better world in their views and of course who's the most worthy of the title undead king!

Very educational

Thank you broski 🙏, I finally get more info about this stuff, damn university ruined reading for fun for me lol

I knew none of this, this is so cool 😎 stonks info mah frendo

Infact that Yggdrasil game is already ended, it's save to assume that those player is already at high level when they transported to new world, so any player that have world item must be in guild and must be already at level 100

Why would people dislike the video it had so much info

The Berserker Player sounds more like Guts tbh. No matter the injuries, he keeps swinging his sword like a mindless maniac, going from quite weak being to an absolute monster. Though, it's sad that the poor sap died from bearing the guilt of killing his friends.

Subbed bro!! btw Evil eye was a player???

humans are not the dominant species of the new world, also the 6GG didn’t introduce Tier Magic, it was the 8GK who used one of the Twenty “ouroboros” to change the NW magic to Tier (Yggdrasil) magic. The 8GK did not target the Dragon Lords, the Dragon Lords went after the 8GK because using Ouroboros screwed over their descendants, preventing them from being born with Wild Magic of the NW and with Tiered magic instead. To clarify, Wild Magic is what makes a True Dragon Lord “True”

Subbed 😊

I think it might be fun if they showed some evidence that people were being brought to this New World long before Yggdrasil. Actually thinking of it the Rune Crafting technology could be it. Imagine if when perusing the library of Nazarick Ainz finds a book of past games left behind by one of his compatriots to fill the shelves. And it described a game system from a game long forgotten in the era of VRMMORPG's. Upon reading about this Rune system from a long forgotten game he tries out the methods described and successfully unlocks this long forgotten system brought by a gamer let's say 40 years in the past IRL (well for Ainz). While I realize it would add more questions I feel it might be a good way to introduce some reasons for the differences in things from Yggdrasil to the New World. Between the vast differences in level caps and random powers that people can be born with most of which seem useless. To me it hints at other games systems at play.

i remember reading all of this yeah, i hope there will be a new season soon

I actually expected that ains would eventually meet a player since it sound like every player summon the quantity dropped and quality up

I've been looking just for this because I haven't found any useful information in the wiki, did you read this in the novels or something?

Ik there was atleast one dwarf player who helped guide and emplemented runes to them along with the beastman. There were others they just havnt talked bout then

Grate video but you forgot to mention the fugues who are theorize to be player or from iggdrasil such as the goblin king and the first dragon lord

Almost forgot about this anime

I already love the Minotaur Sage.

I'd like to see some strong enough to challenge ainz and more details to the story in anime

I love overlord but how much history it has makes it so much better

6 Sloan Theocracy, 8 Greed Kings, 2 amongst the 13 Heroes, 1 Minotaur Sage, 1 killed by Platinum (or was it Brightness?) DragonLord. * there was no Elf amongst the 6 Sloan Theocracy players....that elf would have otherwise still been alive when the 8 Greed Kings arrived.

love the spoilers free videos

If the Slane Theocracy owns items passed down by the 6 great gods and they also have God-kins as their members then it's safe to say that they're by far the most powerful kingdom already. That is a serious potential threat to the Sorcerer kingdom

just a theory I have is that all the players in the New World are/were people still logged in when the servers shut down, but they were transferred to different point in the New World's timeline.

Please do a video on the guild of lord ainz and the sorcery kingdom

So we can start saying goodbye to this masterpiece? Since we are not going to have an ending.

I wish we’d get like a side anime going through all there stories because each of them could get their on anime

If low level player characters came to the world, that seems to indicate that they happened across one of the Twenty, because all other world items would be maintained by guilds or other players even when used.

How come a hundred years later Allah Alaf was already dead if he was an elf?

So ains is immortal and would most likely live to see other players arive. This also tells us that some members that are with him can potentially age and die. Humans can kill players and the dragons have been around for a while and have killed many humans.

While it's true that all these other players died before Ainz arrived, it is hightly possible that other players will arrive at some point in the future.

What I love is that all of these player characters that turned real in the game were human. so they die and are not immortal. But Ains is a lich and cannot die from those means. That means if New human players did appear Ains will still be around to see it. As well as see every human that is transported there for the rest of existence. What I would find cool and make me happy for Ains is if a non-human player was online still and was transported to the new world. They would probably have fond feelings towards Ains and his guild as being heros among non human players.

so interesting

Theyre all dead but there's the possibility that the current elf king is either a descendent of the six gods or the elf god itself, cant wait for volume 15!!!!

My bet would be all those evil deities would be his friends.... Or gulid members... And since they left all their items/ gears to Nazarick before they left, they were not as strong as Ains...

i don't remember hearing this story in the anime. it's probably only from the light novel? or i just forgot entirely since it's been so long.. honestly if this was told before hand it would only make sense why Ainz or actually the fact that he isn't a humanoid or demihuman he (initially favors human since he is in reality human) is hardwire to play a role of a lich.

So even though the chances of a player being around right now besides Ainz, there's a chance a new player can get isekaied while Ainz is still there

Wait, isn’t there still the other undead from the original gods that the greed kings met? On another note, this leaves much room for Isekai stories within this world.

Lol so the leader of the 14 heroes kills his friend , gets racked with guilt, and instead of resurrecting his friend he chooses to refuse resurrection himself and die, something sounds fishy

Do the other players also utilized NPCs that were from yggdrasil? Like albedo and the Pleiades combat maids etc?

Hey zero just a thought but I noticed it started with 6 players to 8 then rate of just 1-2 but then 13 hero’s so like when it’s the overlord turn which is the current player maybe there’s more then 13 players around the world? What do y’all think? Maybe 16 players for the new world including ainz

Considering ains is undead and crazy op he may actually live to see the next wave of players.

Okay this helped me A LOT but it still leaves me with one question. How DO they get sent to the world? It’s originally a video game so how does it like work? Who or WHAT sent them to the world? Is someone in the real world involved in this phenomenon? Okay that was more than one question 😅 but still.

We need an overlord game where we play as a yggdrasil refugee what was a terrible player and level 1 forced to level up to survive and if we die we have to make a new yggdrasil refugee and start over.

Man really dropped a fact spoiler in the title, there goes the mystery of it

I’ll never understand why the writer has decided (at least according to what I heard) not to ever have Ainz meet other players. That just seems like such common sense from a story telling perspective Plus to have Ainz discover why they were ever brought there in the first place

I wonder if those players got Isekai'd at the same time as Ainz, they just ended up on the different timelines.

Those 6 players could be the invaders of Nazarick during the first episode of Overlord.

I think atleast 1 or 2 players are still alive but we Will never know since the author confirmed the story Is ending ending with the next 3/5 volumes.

Make more of these vids. Please

More please

Super interesting! Would be so dope if ainz old guild members were summoned to that world!

Sorry i might have missed it but were the first and second wave came from the same guild respectivley? I mean the 5 were a guild a d so was the 8 were in the same, not as the first but like a second, guild? If that is the case, what would ainz be called? He would be the only one of his guild. Would love it if he was named, simply as "the death" or something. Or i guess the "Overlord"

Platinum dragon lord literally confirms that he killed their team leader. When he said should I let the history repeat it's self. When he wanted to kill the leader of the Red drop.

Dang talk about unlucky to get isekai'd and instantly killed by some high level dragonlord.

The 8greed kings has a world level item is appears to be a mecha type armor (if i'm not mistaken) the current user was na adventurer he got it in a cave and use it in battle in the kingdom to pindown albedo

I have a theory, the leader of the thirteen heroes didnt accept resurrection but I secretly think PDL killed him as he hates players and even though "leader" was good he just claimed he didnt accept it to placate the other heroes like rigrit.

If Ainz lives long enough for the centuries, could other players come to the New World after him? Although I’m suspicious he might be the last due to how late he stayed online. He was there at the very end of the game upon shutdown and likely no one else did the same as him. But it’s speculation.

Season 4 is set for release this year

so if players arrive every after half a century or so… whoever’s arriving after ainz would be in one helluva pickle

back here after the new season news

Dang imagine getting isekai'd to a new world only to be instantly killed by a dragon

Since the Dragon Emperor summons the players , will ainz be the last player to be summoned in the new world because the game officially closed?

Bump, season 4 soon

i have that first frame of the vid as a wallpaper thats y im here

So, there were always more than one player at the same time. So It would make sense if there is at least one player beside ainz. . But my question: were the players aways summoned at the same place? Or did they cross paths? If they were summoned at the same place, it would mean, there is no other player than ainz.

imagine a dev going to the new world
