    I'll concede there. However, I do think that Momo would have taken a platinum (or whatever) rank mission had he been allowed to.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    HS - Episode 06


    ----------------------------------










    Momon OP.

    Albedo scary. If she's gone as far as to make a body pillow, certainly she's imagined what he looks like down there. The fact that she still considers children a real possibility means she's screwed in the head (stating the obvious, I know).

    Maybe Ains should have read the rest of the description carefully before simply changing the last line from a bitch to in a love with Momonga... No doubt this single-minded, obsessive behavior is also from her creator's pen. But then again, I'm not sure it's such a bad thing. It's a dark tomb of monsters, so her behavior is more or less fitting. What comes to the children with an undead, who knows. She's a demon herself. Maybe she's naturally thinking magic can solve everything, or rather only magic matters in the first place.

    I wonder what role the homicidal woman we keep seeing will play. While Ains is a lord of monsters, he isn't exactly evil, and generally keeps his underlings from performing fell deeds with suitable excuses. This Clementine is a genuine villain, though. I do hope Ains won't turn into a pure hero that only keeps saving the world.

    The story is proceeding slower than I keep expecting, but I don't really mind since I'm enjoying every minute. But it does make me worry about how much the season can cover before we run out of episodes.

    When all is said and done, I'd much rather have my 2nd-in-command be madly in love with me than be a complete bitch to me. As an undead I wouldn't worry about being poisoned, but she could give you the slip either way. I'm not exactly sure how loyalty and bitchiness would mix.

    I take the murdering girl to be an evil henchman, one of the (nine?) seats of some evil organisation that's opposing Momon's world dominance.

    I didn't catch the part that Ains was the actual person Momon wanted to look for (if it was even mentioned in previous episodes). Not a bad idea, even if you could have just gone with Momon and they'd look for you just the same if they were pals.

    Still enjoying this one a lot, but man is this shit slow as fuck. Lots of wasted scenes, like the camp fire one... too long.

    Overword should be the new title for this show. They repeated shameless praise for Momon 2-3x, and it's the same damn info.

    15:17 - "Ains Ooal Gown. My shining everything."

    At first I thought this was the knight, but it could also be:

    2) the party name (more likely now that I think about it), or
    3) some weird direct translation of "My Shining Everything" - a motto that the group decided on (less likely)

    While searching for this, I noticed Albedo got Momon's scapula wrong. tsk tsk.

    It was? I don't remember. That would make sense.

    Yeah it was the name of the guild that apparently everyone in Yggdrassil knew. So he change his name from Momon to that. To try and spread the name so that if any players were left they would know someone from that guild was also still there.

    Good thing that's only a special. He's better off with undead stunted emotions. A lord of monsters shouldn't be nervous or fraternise quite that much with underlings. The poor subjects would only get confused.

    Episode 7 - HS





    - - - - -- --



    I can't blame Ains for not being impressed. It was all the funnier when everybody else was, even Nabe, sort of. I guess she can judge monsters very mercifully even if all humans are bugs in her opinion.

    Although Ains is clearly building himself a good reputation and some solid direct connections in the surrounding area, I wonder how much it will amount to. The long suffering village apparently accepted the summoned goblins no problem, but I have some doubt any human settlement would accept the den of a hundred monsters Ains is leading. So, what good does it all make? Just to spread around the name along with fame, not infamy? He doesn't really need to go this far for that alone with the socialising.

    At least the evil woman finally met the alchemist. Took her long enough. Even with how slow the show is, I expected something more to happen in this episode already.

    I love the new hamster. I hope Nabe keeps it.

    Currently we've established:

    Tier 3: Master
    Tier 5: Hero
    Tier 7: Miracle
    Tier 9: Momon.

    Suffice to say, nothing in this show will challenge Momon in any straight-forward way. It'll all be stuff like "How do I appear strong while taming a hamster" or "How do I calm Albedo down" etc.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    He did note he needs to keep an eye on dragons. It would be cool if dragons were really powerful in this series, at least some species of them.

    I miss Ains and Albedo's interaction already, even thought Nabe is cute and cool by her own right. But it's not the same since Nabe doesn't possess much ambition of her own. She acts like a bodyguard pretty much 100%, and any quirks she has are either reactions to stuff Ains says or insulting humans when she's especially called out.

    New Overlord Special


    ----------------------


















    The crew is even more OP than I thought, but that doesn't make a difference really. Anything > Tier 6 or 7 is "good enough" for world domination. This just means Nabe can do it on her own.

    I somewhat doubt it would be that easy. On the other hand I'd also find it very dubious Ains was the only person who staid logged on. I mean, if it was your absolutely favourite game, you respected the studio, spent hours upon hours there, wouldn't you personally have wanted to sit there during the last moments just to see if there might be some message from the creators after the credits? I understood the game had been losing popularity, but there were still people there, and such an occasion probably would have attracted a whole bunch just for the old times sake.

    In other words, there ought to be a bunch of godly beings in addition to Ains around. However, we don't actually know if all of them would have been transferred over to the new world. They might have just been kicked out of the game with a message thanking them for the support over the years. Maybe Ains was an exception for some concrete reason.

    Still very much entertained, but things have been developing at a snails pace. Waiting for it to take the next step, and considering how the episode ended we might take a step in that direction in the next one.

    Will have to check the specials later.

    I thought the full reaction to the hamster was very good, from just about everyone involved.

    Seems like AniDB lists this as a 13 eps series. AniDB has traditionally been more careful about stating episode numbers before there's any real information (unlike the likes of ANN), so I deem it somewhat trustworthy. This is naturally a huge pity. The show has been moving so slowly that we don't even get much in 13 eps, just the beginning.

    I don't see anything wrong with the pacing. It's "Everyday with Ains-sama" or "Demon King takes over the world with a part-time job (except he's actually awesome)".

    It's doing everything right.
