I'm being serious. In the anime Ainz said the creatures would be similar to chimera from YGGDRASIL, then Demiurge said would ableon sheep work for a name. Ainz then says ableon goats.

The "bipedal sheep” Demiurge said he used to make the scrolls were actually humans.  That's the joke.  "Bipedal sheep"?  Get it?

Ainz being oblivious while his subordinates think he knows everything is a running gag.

I missed the bipedal part. I'll need to rewatch that soon, but "In YGGDRASIL, Chimeras walked around on two sheep legs and used their lion legs as arms to initiate attacks"

"Chimera possess the heads of both a lion and a mountain goat, as well as the tail of a snake, paws of a lion, and legs of a mountain sheep"

Either way, it does not say how they were skinned. No mention if alive or dead, so I don't see torture.

I'm familiar with the running gag that Ainz is oblivious to "some" things, nowhere near all. E.I. when Demiurge says "that one time" and Ainz says "what time" in his human voice, when talking about Demiurge's plan to conquer the world.

I did enjoy the Any acr but damn man you aren’t kidding and what made it worse is the narrator wouldn’t shut the fuck up he would drone on about shit that was obvious to the viewer it was really annoying (at least in the Dub)


I’m enjoying 1999 though I just finished episode 20 it covers a good amount of Hunter exam scenes the newer one skipped

I guess I could see how some people might miss that, but Ainz not picking up on Demiurge's "bipedal sheep” being humans is supposed to be a joke. Before that Ainz even comments on the "throne" Demiurge created for him had human bones on it.  Ainz not wanting to sit on it is what lead to Shalltear's "punishment."

Can you point out a specific instance of that?

That's what brought up the Happy Farm.

I don't know what to tell you, bro. Demiurge is running multiple farms that arguably put the horror of Nazi concentration camps to shame.  That seems like a pretty good example of "doing extremely brutal things to innocent humans" to me. YMMV.

Both Rimuru and Ainz use a very similar command structure, including delegation of duties with the exception that Rimuru doesn’t have a clear second in command like Ainz does with Albedo.

Second in command

Ainz…Albedo
Rimuru…Shion (maybe)

Battle planners

Ainz…Demiurge,
Rimuru…Rigurd
In this category Ainz is clearly ahead, Demiurge is vicious, cunning, and ruthless.

Lieutenants vs lieutenants

Shalltear vs Milim
This one is tough, but I’m going with Milim, one of Rimuru’s strongest followers

Shion vs Albedo
This goes to Albedo, Shion is strong but impetuous, Albedo is calculating and well versed in battle.

Cocytus vs Geld
Tough one, I think Geld has a slight edge due to orc demon power

Aura and Mare Bella vs Diablo
I give this one to Diablo one of the seven primordial demons, but it won’t be as easy as many here think, no one gets out undamaged

The Pleiades sisters and Sebas vs pretty much every one else
The true free for all will be here, lots of death and destruction to take them down, a battle of attrition I’m not even going to try and call, Souei, Hakuro, and Benimaru will be in on it

Other influences…
For Rimuru he had the Dryads, and Veldora Tempest the Storm dragon to help.

For Einz, he has his kingdom under control with no enemies in position to try and destroy him (which Rimurur does)
Also, as mentioned, he and his have no problem killing EVERYONE, one of Rimurus issues is he can agonize too long on making the hard choices.

As to the respective MC’s powers, I think Rimuru has Einz beat, his new found powers as a demon lord are quite impressive, even by Einz standards.

Yeah, I know, it’s all just a nice mind game, and I’m sure someone will be along quickly to tell me where I’m wrong, but ahh well.

I suspect the "bipedal sheep" are probably skinned alive then healed.  That way they become a renewable resource.

They don't go into great detail about it, but, yeah, it's in the anime.  Demiurge's scroll farm and his happy farm are both referenced.   The scroll farm was somewhat vague, but one of Demiurge's subordinates talked to Mare about the happy farm/breeding experiment farm.  Early S3, IIRC.

I thought it was established that Milim wasn't included since she's not really Rimuru's subordinate?

Also you left off a LOT of resources Ainz would have including the most physically strong floor guardian AND the most powerful entity in Nazarick.  One that could even beat Ainz (though I don't think the latter is mentioned in the anime).   Not to mention all the game breaking World Level items he could give his crew to make them even more OP, his Shadow Demons, his hundreds of Death Knights, his 100,000+ army he could call upon, etc, etc, etc.

Well she certainly isn’t a subordinate of Rimuru Milim likes Rimuru which is the real reason she didn’t kill him when they met that said I can definitely see her helping him like she already has in the anime


But to me I still think this senario is only interesting if she isn’t there compared to everyone else we’re talking about (at least as they are in how far their anime’s have progressed) shes on a completely different level of absurdly OP


Assuming she doesn’t show it’s a tough call on one hand I’d wager the Rimuru after his recent change could beat Ainz hell maybe even beat the whole crew now that he’s a demon lord but it’s hard to judge we really haven’t seen him in action yet but on the other hand everyone else is pretty damn close and Ainzs crew can get a huge buff with planning and special items ……… edit I really don’t fucking know lol

I have no doubt that Milim would fight for Rimuru, if for no other reason than just to fight.

And Rimuru has pretty much the same abilities now that he’s a demon lord as well.
Heck, just to make demon lord he killed 10,000 (or was it 20,000) troops, and that was without trying.
Now that he is, I doubt 100,000 would make him break a sweat.

As I said, the ancillary fighting would be interesting, but ultimately it’s boiling down to who wins between Einz and Rimuru (who with his new found powers can’t be killed).
Rimuru uses Gluttony to absorb Einz, then what?

That's kinda what I alluded to earlier. Ainz reminds me of when I used to run friends through low level instances on WOW to level up their alts.

Even in the battle against Shalltear there was always a "but wait there's more" everytime she thought she had a chance.

A farm. A ranch. A place. A location. The exact name doesn't really matter.  In 3x01 Pulcinella clearly lays out to Mare they are forcing humans to breed (or at least get fucked by) non-human species.  So getting back to your request that I "point out a specific instance" of Ainz "turning a blind eye or just being oblivious to his subordinates doing extremely brutal things to innocent humans"... there you go.

Nothing is mentioned at all about "forcing" anything.  Nothing about torture, nothing inhumane, in the anime.

Based on your statements (not to mention the fact that you keep calling him "Einz" instead of "Ainz" ) I think you don't fully grasp the breadth of the Great Tomb of Nazarick's resources.  I mean a Death Knight is on par with some random human soldier?  Come on, dude. You're not even attempting to take this incredibly important debate seriously.

Exactly.  It's like what I said yesterday.  If it was just a random encounter with neither side having anytime to prepare or any idea who the other side was then the slime would have a shot.

However, if both sides had plenty of time to prepare, gather intel (if they could), outfit their crew as best they could, implement whatever plan they could conceive, and use every resource they had available to them, etc.... the slime wouldn't have a prayer.

I did spell Ainz right the last time!

Part of the problem with him is he depends on a lot of outside help like death knights to win, keep him busy defending himself and distracted so he can’t call on them or those creatures he used to stomp the army sent against him and he’s done.

Rimuru is a force unto himself, he uses his followers for gathering intel and that’s about it, other than that he wants them out of the way so he can deal with it.
By the time reinforcements arrived to help in Tempest, he’d already destroyed the 20,000 strong army, taken their king and holy church’s emissary as prisoners (all before even being a demon lord),  and brought all those lost back to life.

Nothing is mentioned at all about "forcing" anything.  Nothing about torture, nothing inhumane, in the anime.

To develop that possibility between humans and demi-humans!"

Yes, I'm sure Demiurge, one of the most evil beings in a place filled with evil beings, just set up a dating website or something for willing humans to have sex with willing non-humans.

Come to think of it, that might not make a horrible spinoff.

Demiurge is a real nasty, in the novels he not only uses humans to make scrolls, he als has breeding farms where he tries to make Demi humans by breeding humans and animals.

I one part he takes some of the least desirable results from breeding let’s their parents say their goodbyes then feeds the kids to other families, his only concession is not feeding the kids to their own parents.

On the other hand, Demiurge was known to take satisfaction in conducting many experiments. Among all the experiments he oversees doing, Demiurge focuses on testing out interbreeding and healing magic with the people he and members of Nazarick had captured outside the tomb. He refers to his test subjects as the "Abelion Sheep." He has his own farming ranch set up to prepare for skinning them alive in order to grind for materials like their skins to use in making low-tier magic scrolls. Demiurge had several rules arranged to regulate the interactions and hierarchy between test subjects of different races to the extent that he force them to cannibalize each other alive.

Rimuru is a force unto himself, he uses his followers for gathering intel and that’s about it, other than that he wants them out of the way so he can deal with it.
By the time reinforcements arrived to help in Tempest, he’d already destroyed the 20,000 strong army, taken their king and holy church’s emissary as prisoners (all before even being a demon lord),  and brought all those lost back to life.

Ainz depends on Death Knights to win?  Given plenty of time to prepare Ainz wouldn't have already summoned his army and he would instead wait until the battle started to do it?  The honorable and good Rimuru would find a way to distract the cold, calculating, merciless, and willing to do ANYTHING to win villains of Nazarick and NOT the other way around?

I truly mean no offense as we're all just having fun, but the way you keep talking about Nazarick's forces is kinda reminding of Joe Biden trying to talk about home defense with his "fire a shotgun into the air."

Wait I just realized something we have been thinking about this all wrong


If Rimuru and friends went to Aimz’s world they would show up in a dude’s bedroom with cum residue and Doritos dust everywhere and Ainz would just be laying there plugged into his game consel

Would they though?  I mean this isn't an SAO situation where they sit in their room and their minds are transported to a virtual world and then they come back.  Satoru Suzuki has become Ainz Ooal Gown and he was transported to a real world.

Speaking of SAO: Fucking hell, was that anime overrated. I mean the AIDS kids? WTF even was that?

Also, holy shit, that sounds horrible.

To be fair though, it seems very, very few light novels, manga, and anime stick the landing, but still. That sounds pretty bad, IMO.

Oh, I thought we were debating who would win a war between the two factions.
Didn’t realize you wanted to strictly change the subject to just Overlord.

To be fair, I do like Overlord better than slime.
I enjoy the complete indifference to life Ainz and his followers show, rather refreshing from the usual angst you get with these shows.

I just meant I was talking about how I thought you seemed to be somewhat off on who Ainz fundamentally is and then you said "you have no idea."  I thought "okay, he's now going to go into detail about his take on Ainz," but instead you proceeded to just talk about Slime.  I just thought it was kinda funny.

I love anime that offer an interesting new take on a genre and that's certainly Overlord. TBH, I'm surprised it took this long for a major anime to come out where all the main characters are villains. Not anti-heroes. Not bad guys with a soft spot. Not villains fighting even bigger villains for the great good or whatever.  But full-on villains.

It'd take 63 episodes before we saw the first attack. 41 of those episodes would just me a 4 second .gif loop with him yelling AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH nonstop.

It would cost $300 to make the series, and break world records of viewership as well as make $82bil in merchandise sales.

Haha, yeah, I enjoyed those.  MUCH better than the actual anime.  Though that's not saying much.

How far along is it now?  Last I checked it was only a few episodes into S2.
