Pandora's actor can copy anyone and gain all of the abilities but it's only 80%. Ainz gave Pandora's Actor many restrictions for the fight like using weak items and magic. If Pandora's Actor used his full strength he would've won. Pandora's Actor is level 100 and only fought to get information not to win.
Yes. Not to mention a doppelganger can't copy the magic items people are wearing. Especially the red orb that usually appears below Ainz's ribcage which is actually a world item. So yeah Pandora's actor really is being limited in that fight. Ouh also another thing to add, doppelgangers also have some kind of mind reading ability that's usually used to learn about what someone knows about the character he's impersonating. But idk if PA is using it in that fight
If Pandora's Actor does fight seriously, we can imagine it'll be just like the 2nd half of Ainz vs Shalltear. He'll just keep switching forms to mitigate racial weaknesses while taking advantage of the opponent's.
To me PA is the 2nd strongest guardian in nazarick, just the fact that he can copy the 41 supreme beings and 4 more characters (which is never stated what characters are those 4) at 80% overall and all of them were strong asf, he is smart and his adaptability is almost perfect, there’s nothing bad I can say bout him, he has no weaknesses 😅
@@ShikiRyogi P.A is 3rd. The youngest sister Rubedo is the strongest. 2nd is Shalltear being almost bugged out stats plus items. P.A and Albedo are fighting for 3rd.
According to yenpress, he was wearing ainz's actual gear. It's not all abilities, as he can't copy the special trump cards from touch me or Ulbert since they come from the classes world champion and world disaster
You're right. Some people thought "Puh-Layer" and "En-pii-see" simply just a Japanese to English miss translation. It's actually a hint, the dragon understands the term "Player" and "NPC" but can't speak it right (unlike a player/gamer). Which tell us something.
Its an overwhelming victory for ainz because he fooled everyone into showing their hand. He's a genius no one should ever make fun of his intelligence. And yes of course every single woman and baby was slaughtered, so you have your victory there as well
Fun facts - Pandora's actor is only main npc in tomb who is lv 90 coz of his designed personality he likes to stay in treasury nd not goes on missions that can gain him exp. The white dude you see here is Platinum dragon lord(PDL) tsa, from the counsel state nd is a enemy of Slain theocracy. Nd he is not the only dragon lord. He is a companion of players that comes to this world before ainz 200 years ago. Nd Riku is the name of that player. Ainz is not the strongest entity is nazarik neither are the floor guardians. Strongest is Albedo's younger sister Rubedo who is said to be stronger then other Supreme beings like touch me.
Btw that's not a loss. The commander of the invasion is Cocytus. So no matter if ainz retreated or not, the invasion would still happen unless given order otherwise.
@@johnkonig865 basically all the Kingdom's forces already deployed under zanac and they're already wiped out. As for territorial, Ainz only destroyed the towns on the outskirts of the Kingdom so they have no way to get reinforcement from other countries. But the kingdom is still pretty much there. Though already totally doomed because Cocytus' force are there to basically wipe them down to the last person remaining
This may contain spoilers . To the people who are confused .The dragon who was shown in this episode is The Dragon Lord Named " Tsa " which he is the one controlling the white knight armor , he isnt from the theocracy , he isnt a player and he isnt the frost dragon . The frost dragon which is already dead which ainz kiled with grasp heart his name is " Olasid'arc Haylilyal " The Dragon Lord and The Frost Dragon is not the same person . As to why Tsa know about puhh - layers Tsa have lived long enough to know the existance of the first ever players to be transported in the new world The First ever players are called The Six Great Gods which , The slane theocracy is worshipping
Pandora Actor can only copy 80% of someone power. He was only using mid level Ainz item that look like Ainz Divin level item. He didn't use any high level spell. So you can say Dargon Lord got wrong idea about Ainz Power, Equipment and Spells.
@@juups86 Pandora's Actor wasn't trying to win. His job was to collect intelligence on strong opponents, to get the other side to reveal themselves and see what they could and couldn't do. Ainz is still terrified of the existence of World Items in the hands of Players or other people in this world after the incident when Shalltear was mind-controlled. Saying that I'm still surprised that he hasn't found out that Downfall Of Castle And Country, the World Item in question is in the hands of the Slane Theocracy, not any existing Players and he doesn't seem to know about Godkin, the descendants of Players. Ainz/Momonga has always been focussed on gathering intel on opponents. Even in the game he was the Guild's spymaster and Intelligence Officer, not a front-liner tank or combat specialist like Touch Me. He's carrying on this behaviour in the New World even though his own powers are way above any native entities he's encountered. He's suspicious that there still may be others more powerful than him and a real threat to Nazarick.
This is my first time watching your reactions, and you guys are good 👏👏 I've seen some of the comments giving you a bad read of Platinum Dragon Lord. But he is the strongest being in the world the author has said Tsa has surpassed lv 100. There's a spinoff novel where Ainz fight a lv 95 dragon lord and he barely managed to win, so PDL is kinda confirmed to be the final enemy of this awesome story
While Platinum Dragon Lord isn't a player, his comment about having his hands bloodied might mean something about his past relations with other "players" ;) Also, this isnt the first time we see Platinum Dragon Lord, or even the first time we see his armor in action, as he had a very brief fight against Shalltear just after she was brainwashed (this is shown in like season2?)
notice how PDL cracks jokes with Azuth about the name Riku Aganeia saying that "the person named Riku better watch out for the wrath of Nazarick". This while pondering if he can get away with murdering the Red Drop team leader. This Riku may have been a player in the past, given that it is a japanese sounding name. And PDL's dialogue confirms that he had a close relationship with this Riku in the past.
"He could copy the forms of 45 different beings and their abilities - though only at 80% potency of the original" This doesn't mean he'd be around a level 80. In most mmos, your power jumps exponentially as you level up, but we don't know his exact power since the author is vague about it Firstly, there is a damage resistance that higher levels have against lower level, but this doesn't apply to him since he is leve 100. The author gives a figure that says a level 95 has a 10% chance against a 100. A 96 has a 20% chance, and a 97, a 30% chance, etc. On the other side, a level 94 has an 8% chance, 93, a 6% chance, etc. He cannot copy super tier spells because NPCs are not allowed to have them unless given the ability by an item. From Albedo, "I only know that it is supreme magic that surpasses tenth tier spells" He cannot copy an armors effects, only its appearance He cannot copy skills from unique classes like world champion (touch me's) or world disaster (ulbert's) “That would not be the case. While Pandora’s Actor’s transformations are weaker than the original, his summons would not be any weaker." - fan translation “That seems unlikely. When Pandora’s Actor is disguised, his abilities do not match the subject he copies, but the monsters he summons are unaffected." - yenpress Though I don't trust them much since they translated sorcerer king as king of darkness Lesser doppelgängers exist and some can copy the original to 90% potency though they can't copy level 100 beings. I believe the restriction was no higher than level 60? They can read surface thoughts of a person I believe this should be all that was stated about doppelgängers, anything else would be conjecture
From another youtuber who make a lot of video about Overlorad, he calculated that Pandora actor could reproduce approximately 80% of the strength of the original, plus he has a 64% penalty without the full equipment of the original.
As everyone in comments said Pandora's Actor copy 80% strength. His main strength comes from him able to switch to any of the other 41 Supreme Beings countering his opponents strengths. Which obviously doesn't apply in this one intel-gathering "fight". More comments for YT algorithm.
17:15 it's fight was skipped. It's around the same level as the doom lord but because it is a magic caster, its hp is very low. However, every spell it casts has the meta magic [Maximize], so ainz went to act as its tank. Of the four elements, he noticed Riku took the most damage from acid
Remember that their mission was to collect information, not killing them. No way would Azuth Aindra would be able to flee from Albedo, and no way PDL's puppet would survive PA actually trying to kill. So, they both won. XD
Ains did an intelligence raid using Pandoras Actor and Albedo to see if any others would come to the aid of the Kingdom, he now knows the abilities of the red armor wearer and the platinum armor remote controller. By not having PA carrying the red orb (a world tier item) he's laid some misinformation on the dragon who will now focus on Albedo as the player dismissing Ains as a subordinate.
Non-Spoiler clarification on a few things. I'll try to keep it to things that have been openly stated in the anime and only use the LN when it's from older info that they wont be using in the anime. First off Pandora's Actor. He is a 'greater doppelganger' which are able to copy people up to lvl 100 at about 80% of their maximum power. He is wearing some of Ainz actual equipment since he cannot copy those. He has a few tells that they put in the anime that very few people seemed to pick up on. In previous seasons they made it so his red eyes didn't show, but in this season it was the red sphere in his chest. He still did other tells as well. His first "Greater Teleportation" was said with a flair and he waved his robe material as he did it. Remember PA has a tendency to act in a more showy way. He is also able to copy all of the Supreme Beings if you remember we met him as he was copying Albedo's creator. Not just PA but all of the NPCs have equipment that resist instant death attacks, low level strikes, specific elemental coverages etc. One cannot counter all elemental weaknesses at once but using equipment to counter things you are weakest to is a thing Ainz showed as being common knowledge. Remember the fight with Shalltear when he faked her out by pretending his weakness was holy and not fire. Undead are weak to both but he could only counter one and not the other. So he held strong in fire and faked a falter with holy even though the reverse was true. Ainz's big thing was he usually didn't win his first pvp fight if it was gone into blind. But he was far superior to most when he came back. He learns and is overly paranoid by nature. Touchme was the one he could never seem to counter by planning like this. All of this is part of the reason he is so intent on learning everything he can about his enemy as quickly as possible. Like sending PA in to fight for him. Next up is the durability of Deathknights. They are extremely weak to lvl 100 players. They are only about lvl 35. And though that is absurdly strong by Newworld standards, it's crap to those at lvl cap. The reason Ainz (and other max lvl players during Yggdrasil) likes to use them is they had good defensive skills, aggro draw, and most importantly could not be killed in one hit. They can only be brought from max health to 1hp in a single hit. The reason two died on the bridge is they likely hit things on the way down. The reason the lightning spell worked was it bounces around. Someone being able to kill a Deathknight in a "single" hit would have to be in the lvl 40-50 range with a good idea of what they are. Also Tsa (I'm keeping this part barebones to avoid any potential spoilers) as the guy in the red armor called him was also called Tsa by the old woman when we first saw him. The puppet armor was seen in the background during that scene as well. She said she knew him as a friend when he 'wore' that armor. PA pretending to be Ainz said that a nameless warrior in platinum armor was one of the thirteen heroes. There is a fair bit more detail I could go into here but I don't know if they'll add anything to this so I'll avoid it. Final bit I'll add is Kyouhukou. Cocodoll the EightFingers leader who was taken by Shalltear was in prison when the others were getting their 'baptism'. As stated by the conversation between the twins Aura and Mare, they were eaten alive from the inside out by the roaches. Kyouhukou is the large roach in the crown from the previous season. The reason the current leaders are so pliable to Nazarick rule and all seem to have an eating disorder that looks like a crash diet is Kyouhukou. They cant stand the feeling of food in their throats so they all are on a liquid diet. The 1k people Shalltear teleported were family and workers within EightFingers. They were already loyal and were rewarded by not being in the capital when the attack happened. They sprung Cocodoll from prison to spare him. Only they couldn't save him from the 'reconditioning' and agreed that at this point it would be a baptism.
@@onireactions4168 Of course :D had a lot of fun watching your reactions and I love this story. Once you're done watching this season I highly recommend reading the LN. There is so so much information they had to skip.
I would say that the fight against the platinum dragon lord real body (which is belived to be at least level 100) and the other dragon lords, like cure elim, would be THE fight of the series
How to know it was Pandora and Not Ainz. There was no Red Orb inside Ainz Skeleton. How Albedo talk with him, showing no respect. Ainz talking too much, explaining everything about his Magic.
In the novel the fight went on for a little bit longer. Like the elemental skull fought a bit, PA using a time stop spell which didn't work and even tried a invisibility spell himself but PDL could still see him.
i can totally tell you guys weakened your heart when ains bow down to the dragonlord before you knew its pandora's actor but you guys didn't notice albedo mannerism talk to pandora's actor was kinda off
People have answered your questions so i will just say a fun fact. When I was reading the novels Pandora tought after the fire attack: it did a little damage. So for me that was what gave out the info that it isnt Ainz, since we know Ainz is immune to fire dmg.
@@onireactions4168 im not sure if it was mentioned in the anime, but the novels explained that in Yggdrasil pvp info was key to win. So since undead creatures are generally weak to fire Ainz made himself immune to it. But i think in shaltear fight he used this tactic, i dunno its been a while since I seen it/read the books. Anyways I found this channel yesterday and I honestly enjoy the reactions, keep it up guys, and wish both of you the best! (( I apologise if my grammar is off, eng is my third language))
pandoras actor couldve mopped the floor with PDL's armor and possibly PDL too, only reason he didnt is because he was only ordered to gather info and not to eliminate any serious potential threats just like albedo didnt kill azuth because she wasnt ordered to do so(shes overwhelmingly stronger than him and couldve easily killed him if she wanted to or was ordered to do so)
the reason albedo able to break the barier is because she brings the World Class Item (WCI) and pandora didnt. You can she her WCI in her waist when she chasing azuth.
Fun Fact, Pandora Actor Actually can copy like 70-80% of the real one. And Pandora Actor already have a memory of all the supreme being in Nazaric. in this fight they just want information, if Pandora Actor serious he can easily killed Dragon Lord since Pandora Actor lv.100 and Dragon Lord around 80-90
PA can't copy equipment, so he borrowed Ainz' highest level signature armor. he could copy the form of the armor but not the protective qualities of it, and in that case just as a skin. However, he DOES copy racial traits and when he copied the undead Ainz, it made him invulnerable to critical hits. Realizing that destroying the Riku construct would have no merit since it was only a doll he was fighting, so PA focused on gathering information. Confident of tanking Riku's hit, PA went on all fours and pleaded with Riku in an effort to make the latter leak more. p.s. Nazarick's encounter with the gundam put them on high alert. cautious of players, the plan to lure enemies with PA body double worked perfectly
Yeah, pandora can only copy 80% of ainz's stats, just enough to be able to use every single spell up to 10th tier with all the buffs and glory that can be gotten for them and that 20% that is missing is all of Ainz Super tier spells that Pandora cant use. Aside from that pandora can make near perfect copy of ainz lol
@@juups86 no, when Pandora's Actor mimics a person's form, he will receive penalties in all attributes and can use all of their abilities and skills only up to 80% of their original's potency + he is unable to gain access to the target's Super-Tier Magic or spells. While the transformation of Pandora's Actor is weaker than the original, the shape-shifter's summons will not be any weaker.
I feel like you guys missed how the dragon pronounced player and NPC, like he picked up the lingo from the past, not beecause hes an actual player, also no Pandoras Actor can't mimic ains 100% and is only a fraction of ains power
The dragon is pretty much an old dragon that encountered and even fought players hundreds of years ago. The reason why he has knowledge about players and NPCs because he got the info from other players. The thirteen heroes that pandoras actor mentioned are players. New world residents that have encountered or have knowledge about Players, they consider them as a race of rare gods from another world that can bring great catastrophe to the new world if they were bad.
Most of the Thirteen Heroes were not players. Only two of them were (including Riku). Remember that the Thirteen Heroes that Tsa (platinum dragonlord) was a part of also included Rigrette (that old woman from Season 2 that talked to Tsa). It also even included Evil Eye. Notably, one of the thirteen heroes, the one who eventually became leader (likely Riku) started off the weakest and eventually through their questing together to kill the demonlords became the strongest. That's player growth. Yet the others couldn't keep up because they weren't players.
Pandoras actor is more powerful than the dragon lord, they just wanted information and only that, all floor guardians are more powerful than anyone in the new world so don’t forget that
@@-Apoptos- he's strong but even 5 lvls difference can be a huge gab between two players +Pandora is super strong and smart If ainz didn't nerf him he would win
@@-Apoptos- I don't know.. I feel if Pandora's Actor was allowed go all out, assuming he had access to the golem items in the treasury + has no or little cooldown on transformations, he could beat Tsa. If nothing else he could switch between various magic casters, buff himself to oblivion, and go full melee while switching between builds to find the most effective one.
@@Some_tunisian_punk Tsa should at the very least be 95. Even if his armor is 90, that is enough to tank any summon PA brings up unless he want to weaken himself by spending xp. A level 95 dragon is not comparable to a level 95 player. Dragons are the most powerful race We know of another true dragon lord who, 200 years ago, was level 95. If any of the floor gaurdians went against him, they would've lost.
16:15 a level 70 doom lord. As consequence for having far higher agility than its level should, it's health constantly decreases While having it tank, he cast perfect unknowable. A spell that erases ainz's presence and is hard to detect even for the ranger, Aura. Ainz took note that Riku could see through it when he left the doom lords back and the katana thrust towards him
it's too easy to tell it's ainz or pandora actor. You can see if there is a red orb in Ainz's stomach because it is Ainz's world class item and Pandora cannot imitate world class items. And the Pandora actor isn't weak. he's a level 100 npc as strong as the other npc. If Pandora hadn't been asked by Ainz to dig up information from the Platinum Dragon Lord, then Pandora would have been very easy to defeat the dragon. platinum dragon lord level 85-90. too far from pandora's level 100.
@@onireactions4168 at most you lose 5 levels. It depends on the spells or items used to resurrect the person but it's easier to tell with combat oriented builds. Zanac's was something like this Prince - 4 King - 1 Charisma - 2 Fighter - 1 He might've been able to resurrect him, but ainz still had no idea what his level was Each of the books have a few character sheets like this but in a bit more depth
Spoiler (Platinum Dragon Lord) No Platinum Dragon Lord is not a player himself but he fought against the 8 greedy kings who were the first players from Yggdrasil to come to the new world and so he knows about players, npcs and World items Because the 8 Greedy Kings almost wiped out his entire race
The Holy Dragon of The Holy Kingdom is a player who lives in Isekai for 500 years! He could be the Another Player whom be friend with Ainz in future other world.
Hints in the anime it's Pandora he's copy anyone but only 80% power 1) shiny red eyes 2) shit talk other guardians when he's in Ainz or momon ( remember Sabas and albedo in 2nd and 3th season ) 3) over acting 4) the red orb in his chest ( it's a bona-fide world item it's for killing dragons ) Side note if Ainz knows it's a level90s dragon he will be drooling like the pedo nun 🤣🤣🤣 and kill him for his body parts not want him to join
@@-Apoptos- it should be able to affect dragonlords, since it’s a world item. Just like how albedo was able to break his wild magic barrier while having one, the orb shouldn’t be able to be nullified.
