The Freezing God | Overlord S2 Ep 5 Reaction 

@YaBoyRoshi Ains in the novels is 177cm (5'10") tall but to make him more intimidating in the anime they made him 200cm (6'7) tall. That's why he looks so big.

Lizard love. Lol

I told you yall cant handle the lizards lmao

Can you guys react to Freddy vs Jason

@@arsamamjadibeygvand4905 no, author just said that number in a tweet but he also said to don't take it seriously. Ainz's height in anime is canon. He is described as towering over others in LN too.

xd

it definitely is can't wait for Lupa reaction then

@@kurogami3999 i cant wait, i remember one reaction channel I watch almost dropped overlord because S3 was really messing with their morality. I doubt they will drop it but it will def get some quality reactions from Lupa.

@@shrekthe55thsharkking everyone always autopilots to the goats but i feel like the arena scene with shalltear was more vicious especially since there was a glimmer of false hope then what ultimately happens to her two younger sisters.

The show is literally called "Overlord" I don't know why people don't realize our main guy ain't good in the first place. 😂😂😂

Ainz on alternate beginning with evileye is the best ainz

facts

At this point in the Story he's still decent. It's not until Next season that Ainz becomes truly evil

Evil huh?. I guess you'd think so, if only you'd know the full context.

@@minecraftmobile4152 His version of Mercy is Murder and using the body afterwards for parts. That's evil.

@@Rensune he said full context

Don't worry, he'll be fine. He'll just have a little lisp for a while like most resurrections

@@radioraheem9820 I know I know Ainz explained it. But it's still touching ^^'

Just think of it like when you sleep on your arm and it stops the blood flow. When you let it continue it feels all tingly, weird, and a bit unresponsive.

Seeing your friends and brother getting cut in half does that to a mf

@@XC11301991 I remember when that happened to me for the first time... I thought my arm was missing, and got up in a panic 😅

Lupa hit the hardest yea ever this episode 😭

truly one of the mightiest of YEAAAAHHHs to date fuggin lizard niggaz... literally this show is the best just for this

followed by lizardman bignut-grunt XD

yeapp, as far as reactors go, thats a new one. It really makes me anticipate that certain ep, i mean it might seem pure evil, but objectively looking at it, its just simply logical/makes sense

I’m sure they had their fair share of overlord fans drilling that into their heads though because some people just can’t resist back-seating reactions.

@@asdfghjklzxcvbnm3166 i know and it do be fuсking annoying sometimes.. i heard they discontinued Overlord reaction for years just because we couldn’t keep our mouth shut.

I kinda got shocked when i learned that people realised it so late. I knew since episode 3 when he said he lost his humanity. That was also the time when i decided to buy the light novel and i am a huge fan since then. One of the best LN i ever read. I cant wait for the move this year and i hope they dont cut too many scenes out of it. Especially the Scene with the Queen if you know what i mean.

​@@donkykong6369Yeah same here. To me it was obvious since EP 3 of S1

Well, it's not just paralysis, iirc it's multiple powerful debuffs that paired with a certain someone allow for wiping out everything on floor 8 at once.

@@marmyeater yah just thought AOE paralysis would be a simpler explanation

I who read the LN 5 Times did not release this wtf

He turned off that ability after the incident with albedo and also that’s something that was patched out in Yggdrasil as it allowed undead to heal infinitely

@@ognjenognjen0013 he turned off the ability after he touched albedo as soon they transferred to the new world

@@-Apoptos- so this is false info?

@@-bigdebates7129 Not necessarily false but I did not see this info in the Light Novell either. But it’s not hard to assume that it’s true

It's not just that. The longer he exists as an undead the more of his humanity gets lost, which means less empathy too.

@@Sweet_Venom0027 Actually I think several points in the novel make it clear that he hasnt lost any more of himself since first coming here as an undead. He's actually had some instances more recently where he has made his own decisions and not just followed the lead of his servants and they usually lean more towards morally ambiguous/neutral or even positive. The most the race change does is make him mostly indifferent to people he doesnt personally know dying (which some side stuff implies is just how he's always been and has little to do with being undead) which also has exceptions such as not liking the idea of children dying as he has a soft spot for them. Other than that, all him being undead does is forcibly calm him if he feels emotions too strongly. There's actually a what if novel story made by the author himself where Ainz came to the new world several centuries earlier, and by the end of it even after having traveled the world for that amount of time he hasnt gotten any worst than when he started.

and well one very simple difference, here its real, he can actually 'die', its not just a game where you can die over and over with well no "real" consequence

Well, he THINKS he needs to do that, but everyone is incapable of betraying him unless A: whomever specifically made an npc orders it to do so, or B: it's in their programming in some way/shape/form.

@@marmyeater Maybe not. In the case of the former scenario you described, some of the npcs very much prefer Ainz to there own creator and if given the choice would kill them for him. In the latter even though an npc is set with the goal of taking over in mind, they'd never truly act on it cuz the loyalty is far stronger.

It’s so much worse then just skinning them he also makes them eat the dead humans and he also doesn’t just let the people die he casts healing magic on them to heal t he m after they are skinned so he can skin them again

Well yggdrasil was like WoW; alliance vs horde, Undead/ Monsters vs humans. Humans considered all monsters and undead unsightly so the undead and monsters feel the same.

It's kind of a mixed bag. The majority of Nazarick is evil but there are also outliers such as Yuri of the battlemaids, Pestonya, Cocytus, Sebas, and Nigredo who have positive karma but they are also the minority and ultimately still default to Ainz decisions. The problem is a lot of misinterpretation happens with his followers presuming what he wants based on his persona in the game, and Ainz either being too ignorant to realize what's going on, being afraid of how they'll react, or worrying he'll make things worse if he intervenes. But yeah, since he leaves most the decision making to Albedo and Demiurge, the arguably most evil members, that's where the problem most lies.

Yeah he is. Also children's skin can produce higher quality scrolls. Demiurge harvests human skin multiple times by healing them. Then skin them rinse repeat. He's got a whole happy farm going on over there

@@crazedmonk8u forgot about that children thing forgot how fucked it was gotta reread the LN some time

Also to add, resurrection magic in this world can't be used on just about anybody, if you're just an average civilian or a significantly weak adventurer then die and someone casts resurrection magic on you you'll just be reduced to ashes since you don't have enough life force to sustain the resurrection magic.

@@camrynduplessis2743 I also believe there was something about the person being resurrected having to have wanted to come back to life for it to work, and there actually are people in the world that make it clear that when their time comes they dont even want to people to try on the off chance that some small part of them does want to come back.

@@camrynduplessis2743 I think the limitation is so much that only adamantium+ level heroes are strong enough for the resurrection to work. Also eventually the other chiefs are also resurrected which these the chiefs are that strong

@@arno7163 I remember Evileye implying that. But then if that's the case then wouldn't that also imply that the lizardmen chief have adamantite level strength?

@@camrynduplessis2743 I mean, they were strong. Zemberu was able to resist the power of frost pain several times, the one with armor was pretty much in that ranking of power by pure strenght. The lizzard men were able to exist as a nation bc they were strong. Otherwise, the would have been under the empire

He still has those emotions, but the can't go beyond a certain limit, after that limit it resets. But some events cause him to be angry or happy enough to reset several times.

He still has preferences like finding murder distasteful if it’s just for the sake of killing.

It's not from him being undead, otherwise Shalltear would be much different. It most likely comes from his overlord racial levels, or his unnamed racial levels.

It’s cuz it doesn’t equal the goodness of the light novel

@@samuraimo759 his point was no one, who actually matters, cares.

Those statements can both be true.

@@samuraimo759 If someone doesn’t like it, they have the option to go and read the light novel. Absolutely no one is stopping them. But it was still popular, which means people really liked how the anime was made.

Mainly it's the abysmal CGI at the end of the season.

Eh, in a way you're correct. Cocytus wanted to get hit by the attack by deactivating his skill, but he knew Ains was watching and elected to go against his own wishes

@@Inithia well yes, but one thing doesn't exclude the other

If it isn't a spoiler, can you explain what his "happy farm" is?

​@@benji6325 Well people miss this part a lot from the anime, also it isn't that much spoiler if you watched season 2 there's an ep forgot the name of it when Demiurge says to Ainz that he got bunch of "Two Legged Sheep" which Ainz thought Demiurge was talking about some magical beasts but what Demiurge actually meant is actual human race and demi human that he refer to them as "Two legged Sheep" or "Abelion sheep"! Ainz still don't know it is a human not beasts and he brushed it off. If you remember from the S2 that Demiurge skin them alive to use their skin for magic scrolls production after that they use healing spells on them and skin them again over and over daily. This is one of Demiurge's three infamous farms which each one for different purpose like for their skin or breeding with other demi human races etc. The rest of the info is really graphic, what actually Demiurge did to their children it will make people's hair fall. but if you interested you can find more info on that by google "Overlord Happy Farm Reddit".

theres absolutely no reason to post a spoiler from that far ahead

@@unrelatedcoma There are people that don't care about spoilers. I only watched the anime so far but I have many spoilers from the novel that I looked for myself.

@@byakko4518 mmmm well I don't care about spoilers that much that's still very far from the anime, but thanks for the info I'm sure some of is going to be left out of the anime

That spoiler was really too far ahead. And for some reason youtube is not hiding it. Try to edit it and put more space. Edit:oh it took a little time for youtube to hide it.

@@unrelatedcoma yeah its a way too far in the anime spoiler but its just highlighting cocytus respect and so on for real warriors(or well just warriors that fight till the end)

Ainz is hella evil but also very lawful he doesn’t just kill for no reason and he especially doesn’t hurt the people he rules over like carne village and later e rantel

It's because he's a lich. Which automatically blunts his empathy and humanity.

I think the novel actually hints a lot of the time that his character traits dont actually affect him. The only really big thing is the stunting his emotions if he feels them too strongly keeping him regularly calm. Even his coldness towards those he doesnt personally know could be equally attributed to the hellish life he lived on earth and he just doesnt want to accept that, using his race as an excuse the first time he coldly killed a knight. If his character traits actually affected him he'd have a super high intellect, yet much of his decision making is totally by accident or a result of speed-reading books in his spare time and constantly misquoting them.

novel already clear it.he's not affected his judgment in every event. he kill no empathy in human thats the effect for evil karma but his decision still intack as a human player

to add to what you said, they were definitely in the top 10 but I'm pretty sure they weren't #1, that being said they were one of the only guilds that high up that had less than 100 members, all the others had hundreds of players per guild iirc. The most famous Guild Raid in the novels is the 1,500 man raid made up of the Players and "Mercenary Summons" (basically NPCs with player stats and skills I believe) raided Nazarick and lost, only making it to Floor 8 where they were MASSACRED.

Ainz ooal Gown is also the only group that successfully raided and took control of nazarick, no guild before and after them has ever managed to do this successfully and Ainz Ooal Gown being in charge of nazarick only made it that much harder to beat. And as a result of conquering nazarick Ainz Ooal Gown was also the only guild to be rewarded with NPC's to put in the guild, no other guild had NPC's like albedo, demiurge etc. There were only players in the other guilds.

@@necromancerz2240 floor 8 is pretty high tho but yeah its not even close to the top

@@itsgonnabeokay9341 well Floor 8 - The Cherry Blossom Sanctuary is supposed to be the true last line of defense of the Tomb made up for NPCs including Victim and Rubedo. Floor 9 having Sebas and the maids who are meant purely to stall the invaders so that the Supreme Beings (Ainz and his crew) can get ready for an all out showdown on Floor 10, the last floor.

They were at ranked 9 in there prime of all guilds

Got any spare bleach for my eyes?

One of the things the anime never really portrays is that is that he doesn't come from our Earth. His Earth was pretty shitty and dystopian, so he was already jaded as a human.

Like Ross said a lot of his personality isnt actually due to a loss in humanity. The novels paints a picture of the race change actually not changing much of his thought process beyond calming him if he feels emotions too strongly. He still feels human emotion, and even his cold indifference to those he doesnt personally know could actually be more attributed to the life he lived, and he just concluded it's his race change to make himself feel better.

@@OsnosisBones oh Damn i didnt know that

@@nicolajpedersen8506 Yeah there's a lot of depressing facts about their earth that is mostly novel only. Like how Yggdrasil as a game was made as a fully unexplored world that people could live vicariously through because the real world was basically dying, which is why the megacorporations shut it down - it was making people too happy and hopeful. This is also why Ainz reacted as he did to it shutting down, though he didn't know about the government intervention. Or how Ainz' mom died from overwork forcing Ainz to work since elementary age. Or the fact some character sheets imply some ofthe other Nazarick players didn't quit but were killed off or abducted by the government. The writer basically has a dystopia scifi plot written on the sidelines as flavor dressing.

@@OsnosisBones god damnit... It sounds so fucking Dystopia that I have to read it now

hello and all hail azin ooal gown !~ banzi !~

I mean if we’re balancing the positives that nazarick has brought to the new world vs the negatives, including stuff in the light novels it’s kinda hard to argue against the idea that nazarick is a negative existence in the new world

@@ryanchan4495 100% they have committed acts that any sane person would deem evil, but what I mentioned is that some people tend to say that they are "pure" evil as in they only do evil things and provide no greater benefit to the whole (the "whole" being the world). In the LNs and CD dramas they actually do quite a bit of good, they create the most realistic utopia I've ever seen in fiction with a zero percent crime rate and next to no poverty in a kingdom that is essentially guaranteed to last for centuries if not millennia. Unfortunately a majority of the evil acts they commit are done by Ainz's underlings either without his knowledge or they provide sound reason to commit those acts.

@@ryanchan4495 true it is " doing evil to being out greater good " he teaching poepe not to be racist, to have open minds. like how enri using goblins, he using undead for labor, etc.

@@necromancerz2240 Spoilers for volume 12, 13 and 14: Yeah they do create what's essentially a utopia in their own kingdom, which is good for Nazarick and any peoples under them. But I'm not sure whether they're good for the new world as a whole, cause at the same time they comitt mass genocide by wiping out the ultimately

XD, indeed.

The thing that saddens him the most is that his undead state supresses his horny towards Albedo.

Yeah but another thing is that that same loyalty towards nazarik is then later applied to the people he rules over hence is why life is pretty chill and safe in his empire

Has he considered what happens if he meets an old friend and they don't approve?

To add, he also is affected by his character's stats, including his alignment, which is evil. This is portrayed in the 2nd episode when he killed humans and said he felt nothing. It just gets more obvious over time.

It's actually not as if he can't feel emotions still. They're not lingering memories alone and can still trigger, but like you said him no longer being shackled to human morality means it is far more circumstantial and he prioritizes happiness of Nazarick above all else. That, and if he does feel an emotion too strongly his trait calms him back down. He actually is still able to make empathetic or selfishly driven decisions, but it's all down to preferences. For example, when Pestonya and Nigredo acted on their own to separate and protect the orphans during the Jaldabaoth event he was secretly happy and only gave them a tame punishment to save face. Ultimately the children were still spared and left under Yuri, Pestonya, and Nigredo's vigil, an act driven by his soft spot for children. The problem is a mix of his new race meaning he must feel close personal ties with a person to emphasize with them, which actually might not entirely or at all have to do with his race, as some lines almost seem to imply in the novel his conclusion that his race made him uncaring is incorrect and that he's just never realized he's this way, as he was born in a hellish isolationist future, and has had no close ties outside of Yggdrasil ever since he dropped out after elementary school to join the workforce after his mother died from overwork.

@@everforward5561 He's said to himself that if he meets a former guildmate and they don't approve of his actions, then he'll apologize and step down from power if necessary. However, the way I see it that's just him trying to run away from the consequences

Demiurge definitely takes life away for the fun of it. You're right though in that everyone's personal alignment isn't strictly evil. Some have redeeming qualities

@@VladdViever Sebas I believe is essentially Lawful Good.

@@xdragoonzero0 Nop, if i remember correctly in the novel Sebas is Neutral Good there is in my knowlege only two lawful good npcs in Nazarick, Pestonya Shortcake Wanko the dog's maid and Nigredo the Albedo's sister which we never see in the anime.

as far as Ainz goes, thats 100% it. Ainz literally does everything in order to preserve/defend Nazarick, which will also help understand a certain ep in season 3 and i think its sometimes forgotten, but ppl are not always 100% in character, everyone does slightly unusual(in this case more evil) things every once in awhile

this is just a warm up. ^^
