Damn, this turned into a conflict to capture the Royal Capital quickly. I kinda feel bad for the dwarves there as I bet they just wanted to live in peace.

I liked the overall style of the episode though as it was tense and also developed more world building elements with its underground city. Ainz feels like he was born ready to lead the people.

This episode was sooo good, I need to catch up on the Light Novel honestly. The amount of world building and tension was really entertaining to watch and my condolences to the Elves who just wanted to have a normal life, nothing is normal in the world of Overlord.

Looks like the Frost Dragon will be coming into play soon if the OP didn't make it obvious enough, that's a part I know will be hype as hell.

Nothing but praise all around for this episode, this may really be my anime of the season along side Made in Abyss if I'm being honest.

The Quagoa against the Dwarves in Feo Jora, this dungeon battle is the fight of the century in Overlord's anime adaptation so far, and Ainz is ready to lend a hand just as the opportunity rises to the most opportune occasion...just as long as the Dwarven Kingdom says yes, which they did.

The Quagoa are fearless, that is until Ainz's army enters the scene and starts the heinous massacre with 2 of the Death Knights across the Great Chasm, leaving its ringleader Yohz with caution to inform its own leader Riyuro. Meanwhile, the friendly relation talks commence, with the Dwarven Kingdom at all arms in suspicion, and this is warranted with Ainz's unusual offer that comes with a big caveat for the rune technology.

Of course, hidden away in closed doors, the dwarves are all in shock, but in terms of their current predicament, they have no choice but to accept all terms with conditions of their own to ensure fairness (e.g. labour) to the runesmiths. A demonstration to reinvigorate the lost art of runecrafting, and thankfully they all agreed to it with Ainz's presentation receiving good feedback and saving the sanity of one of the Dwarven Kingdom's unique features.

The expedition to take back the old dwarven royal capital from the Quagoa, and having the extermination of 2 Death Knights, Ainz has to strike a strategy, and both Aura and Shalltear are spearheading the operation based on his calculations, given that the latter brainwashing still stands.

The Great Chasm is no short of dangers left and right, and with Ainz's direction of facing both the Quagoa and the frost dragon, this will be an epic battle of proportions.

There are no dwarves in there. Dwarves lost their capital city to quagoa and Ainz-sama is on his way to reclaim it for them.

Feo Jera is in some real trouble against these Quagoa, good thing our boy Ainz is here to save them. Lol that one Quagoa who done lost his arm. That wasn’t even a fight at the end, that was a straight up massacre. The city ran red with Quagoa blood that day! This Riyuro is gonna learn he shouldn’t fuck around with Ainz.

Mineral ores and equipment for some food stuffs? Sounds like a good deal. Plus Ainz is being upfront about the runes too. Lol I love the dwarves freaking out right after sending Ainz out the room, it’s what I would have done if I was meeting Ainz the first time.

That was a great speech, I would love to see Ainz jump up and cheer haha. What a sight! I’m glad runecrafting is gonna live on thanks to Ainz though. Gondo is a bro too, man. Sneaky old dwarf! That book is gonna be useful.

I love Shalltear and her little notebook, so cute! The end there with Ainz just coasting through the sea of lava and the labyrinth of death filled with poison like nbd was pretty amusing. Like that was suppose to be a long journey to the capital fraught with difficulties…and my guy just basically strolls over lol.

Next week looks like a battle against frost dragons and the rest of these Quagoas dudes.

Seemed to include most parts from the LN that I remember clearly. The episode really needs to be longer though.. its just over before I finish my coffee lol. If only they were 1 hour long it would feel perfect. Got some good dialogue in there and love the way the dwarves are drawn.. looks very old school. Death Knights slicing up the the Quagoa's was badass too.

Another week, another patiently crafted and well adapted episode. I love those moments when Ainz told Fiora and the dwarves to hush lmao. Big pet peeve when people try to talk over him. Also loved seeing how nervous he was to give that presentation, doesn’t matter how powerful you are, we still hate public speaking lol.

Looking forward to seeing the dwarf stronghold reclaimed and the frost dragon animated.

Man that end scene was sad. Ainz had finally begun to warmup to his party members other the guildmates. But sadly they were killed by Clementine from whom he also takes his battle inspiration.

Every episode from Overlord IV feels so fast. But this one by far the fastest one, feels like 18min duration.

Gondo is such a good Dwarven. And Shaltear is goddamn cute.

To see how ainz discussed with the dwarves to trade rune technology is nice to watch. He know how to act like the ruler.

oh man this episode was so good.
I can't can't can't wait for next week. the music of the show intros are fire. he knew the death knights died but not how that's gonna be funny to see him be super cautious for no reason but it also reveals how powerful area traps are OHK like in games.

I hope to see more, constantly and always I feel like every plotline they have could be its own season.
the kingdom politcs with albedo
the theococy
this dwarf kingdom thing
the whole trade war thing going on
the stuff with crazy princess
the Godkin
whatever demi is doing
possible rebellion?
other kingdoms reacting

momon adventures seem done and so do the lizard stuff.... maybe an ark where one of this lizards gets elevated to floor boss status that'd be dope. this world just seems huge and the amount of story's to tell are endless even for an OP characters but I'm sure they won't be OP forever and
I hope that he doesn't meet another player or find a way out tbh. I think meeting someone from his old guild would cause a conflict on how he treats the servants and a random player how he's killing people of this world would just be extra needless conflict that can only lead to them being killed and the delema of anis kill his first irl human maybe. idk.

I knew it those dwarves were keeping the act when they were so composed talking with Ainz lol. I guess even Ainz has an idea. Anyways another episode when it felt like they're doing a good job with this adaptation even though I haven't read the ln myself.

Great episode as always, but I'm surprised that Ainz didn't understand that they cut the bridge to kill the knights since it was the obvious solution, anyway the deal with the dwarves is sealed now, I can't wait for the raid xD

Pretty good episode! This show has even more content than cote and is still doing a %100 better adaptation("its impossible to adapt a light novel bla bla bla", here we have a good example that its not). Im so mad i need to wait 1 week to the next ep, damn, just hope they don't abuse the cgi, thanks for the ep!

Quite the dialogues as usual. Seems like they're capturing the Royal Capital in the next episode.

It was a flashback to season 1 when Ninya mentioned the Frost Dragons when Momon was on the quest with the Swords of Darkness. Ainz was reminiscing about Ninya never getting to see the Frost Dragons.

Seems like a somewhat major battle is incoming, even though 50 is far below 100. Surprised Ainz didn't come to the conclusion that they could have fallen down the chasm; maybe it's to show how much he hopes to meet an actual player in this new world.

A pretty great episode imo, even though nothing of significance happened. This episode basically just a setup-ish.

I'm pretty hyped for the next episode; it'll be interesting to see how Ainz deals with the Frost Dragon since Shalltear and Aura's missions are pretty much guaranteed unless there's super being hiding in that city.
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

I love how OP the MC is but he's always so overly cautious. Good episode, can't wait for the next, hope it's a slaughter

I think Aura was going to tell Ains that they didn't smell the death knights on that side of the bridge.. which would've meant Ains wouldn't need to be so on guard.

I hate how quick these episodes feel! They just fly by! Y_Y
