New LOVECRAFTIAN VISTAS of HIDOI - Overlord Season 3 Episode 12 Reaction 

Politeness isnt a sign of weakness.

He's not really calling him "master", it's just that japanese suffixes are all but impossible to translate. I think "lord Gown" would be a closer translation of the suffix "-dono" in this case. It doesn't necessarily imply a noble status, but it's required to refer to someone who's a noble. In this case, it's the least of the suffixes that can be used without being directly insulting. The most common suffix "Gown-san", translated by "Sir Gown", would be totally inappropriate for a king. That would be implying he's not a noble. Other possible suffixes would have been "Gown-sama", means that Ainz is of higher status. Or "Gown-heika", basically "your majesty". "-dono" only means here "person of high status who isn't above me" and any other suffix would either make him subservient or be insulting.

Thank you for explaining this. The lore of Overlord is so fascinating!

appreciate this explanation love the world of Overlord

In Ainz's head, he was just correcting him and didn't mean anything more than that. But the sasugasms must flow, and the poor guy misunderstood, thinking the carnage would never be enough for Ainz.

And in the light novel Raeven didnt die there.

Raeven still is alive and pretty muh stays alive

The WEB novel of Overlord have some difference from the light novel, the latter became the canon story. Like Arche being a thrall of Shalltear in the WN while being killed in the LN.

the author is lovecraft fan

I read somewhere that the King used to be real Top G in his youth but age, children, and nobles have made him soft

@@zhangeldy4097 Even so, prime King vs. Ainz, he is still useless🤣 It's like an Ant fighting a Elepant. All Ainz wanted is to give E-Rantel to him a small town, but now i guess Ainz wants the whole Kingdom🤭

@@goblinslayerrr406 The king is a very good man, it's just that when you consider the fact he is still just a normal human he can only do so much. He however was too complacent in his later years which has caused the country to stagnate and become corrupt. By the time the king realized just how bad the situation had gotten, the noble faction had gained so much power that trying to enforce his will would've caused a civil war. By comparison the Emperor of the Baharuth Empire is a more composed genius of a man, he had more central power and quickly stamped out most of the nobles who did nothing for the Empire. Having strong retainers and advisors gave him the means to enforce his will. Meanwhile the King of the Re-Estize kingdom doesn't have many people that're actually powerful as his close advisors or retainers, Gazef is literally one of the only people in the kingdom that would give the King means to enforce his will. If he had more retainers that were noteworthy in terms of strength like how Jircniv does, and if his army was more professional then he'd be able to enforce his will more readily. However since he's not really a genius, just a overall decent king, it means he probably wouldn't be able to stamp out all of the corrupt nobles entirely. As for Ainz, Ainz is literally the definition of faking it and it going his way. It helps that he's a very smart fighter and unparalleled magic caster, but as far as kingcraft and such is concerned he is by no means a genius. Though that's not going to stop all of his subordinates from believing he is a super genius that is all knowing and faultless. To the point they basically make plans for him assuming he already made the plan long before they did. It is by far one of the best things in the show, just watching Ainz be like "What plan? I didn't have a plan."

​​​@@darkrite9000yeah the king is definitely decent, however a king must lead his people. He isn't capable of enforcing his leadership. His capabilities isn't on par with Jircniv. Although I'll just give props to Ainz here. He's a good leader. A leader's role is to put the right person at the right job, pretty much delegation of duties. A leader does not need to be the strategist. I agree tho that he isn't, at the moment, decent in kingcraft as he's the one being lead. In this sense, Ainz is a good leader in regards to delegation of duties, but is not, atm, king-worthy. Edit: I do agree, Ainz's plans that are far too incomprehensible even to the highest of the most supreme beings... Which is himself, is totally enjoyable.

@@sixjhontongalamar979 Yeah the fact that the king cannot enforce his will does mean he's ineffective as a king, and since he's not like Jircniv he can't really make big pushes for change to further centralize and solidify his power. Which means that depending on who succeeds him to the throne (or rather who would've), it could drastically effect how the nation develops or falls. Ainz as you pointed out is good at delegating responsibilities he's not equipped to deal with. And while technically the floor guardians could in theory betray him and manipulate him due to him not being a genius. They don't do that because they honestly believe he's a perfect being, and they hold absolute love and loyalty towards him. Anyone outside of Nazarick may not be as loyal but they also have no means to oppose him and thus are not a threat to his rule. But Ainz does try to improve his understanding, while the old king doesn't appear to make very many moves to try and change the kingdom or his own capabilities. The politics of Overlord are definitely a strong driving force and makes things very interesting, since it'd be relatively boring if the show was just Ainz slapping everything in sight because nothing can stop him. The other characters, their flaws, and their politics and ideas make Overlord probably my favorite isekai.

Maybe Renner instead of Raeven?

@@gabriellemos2491 she wasnt on the battlefield

@@AcediaRulerOfSloth ainz did not know that

@@gabriellemos2491 I'm relatively sure there was a) no reason for Renner to ever be on the battlefield, and b) even if she was, Ainz, or at least Demiurge, would've been told.

I dont know the lore behind them since i haven't read the manga, but those are the gauntlets from s1e12, world items called Avarice and Selfless, Ainz gave them to him incase something went wrong with his fight against Shaltear.

Avarice and Generosity is a world class item that allows the storage of xp within its gauntlets. Any stored xp can be used for abilities that cost it

and the ones that did live now suffer from ptsd

👌

Uhm no they aren't. There were official illustrations to show their size. And they are even bigger than what the anime portrayed.

Fun fact: You're wrong.
