it seem like bukubukuchagama created the twins as the perfect Defensive Support NPC that would support her like the way she likes to play her role as a "Aggresor Tank".. and like how bukubukuchagama like to play it seems like she created the twins to defensively support the team from the back while she defensively tank the front while her team mates take out the enemy, she really value her team mates way of enjoying playing the game..
@@graven2508 He is... And the latest Volume 16 shows even more of his abilities in his fight with Zesshi... pretty much it also confirmed Mare has lightning speed reaction too...
12:01 when I first read this scene I got chills. It helped remind me that Mare was introverted and reserved, but not actually sympathetic to the lives of any new worlder.
I don't feel all too bothered by it. Its human nature shown too us tthrough the lense of a monster. The majority of people don't care so long as it's not their own being harmed. And history has shown time and time again humans can treat their own as garbage, even less then. And the state of our planet shows if it's not human it's just a tool for use.
I think one of the reasons they are a young boy and girl is because female voice actors usually do the voices of kids regardless of gender. It sorta reflects her job and the roles she probably got.
56:55 what aura used then, did not count as mind affecting “The undead could ignore just about any form of mind-affecting effect. However, there were certain abilites that produced similar effects, but which did not count as mind-affecting. That person had used such an ability.”
I think so too. I think it was much simpler than that. If you felt someones presence behind you, and their breath down the back of your neck, but hadn't sensed them before, wouldn't you be surprised someone is there and look?
Ainz used the avarice in the web novel after the first massacre. The reactions everyone was having after seeing him kill so many and harvest their souls afterwards was quite amusing.
Massacre Part 4 Translators: Frostfire10, Skythewood
Ainz nodded several times. He could let it eat aplenty.
“Now, your turn.”
Ainz pointed his black gauntlet towards the hellish crumbling landscape of the Kingdom’s army.
“Awaken, Avarice. You may feast.”
As if answering to Ainz’s action, countless blue lights were pulled out of the Kingdom and flew upwards. Those tiny lights, smaller than a fist, were sucked into Ainz’s black gauntlet. A hundred and thirty thousand balls of light was swallowed up, like everything was a dream.
The gauntlets on Ainz’s hands was one of only two hundred World Items in Yggdrasil, called [Avarice and Generosity]. The gauntlet called Avarice had the ability to store the experience that the user was usually about to gain. And the gauntlet called Generosity could be used in place of the experience lost under certain conditions, up to the amount that Avarice had taken. The blue light was nothing more than a special effect during the absorption of the experience. Ainz was already at the max experience cap for a level 100, and thus could not absorb any more. Thus any experience gained would be lost. However, that was a waste. The super-tier magic [Wish Upon a Star] and other spells or skills often used experience and were stronger than most. And one of Ainz’s World Items used enough experience to fall down five levels. While the amount was few, wasting experience was something a player could not forgive. Thus he had considered the possibility that a player was around and used a World Item to absorb the experience.
Well, to those like Ainz who have lived in the game world, they would at most be surprised that Ainz was collecting experience.
However, to a third party, how would they see it? They could only see Ainz collecting something, something that was not experience. What were those?
They were- Souls.
In front of them, the souls of the Kingdom’s soldiers were being taken. That was the only way they could see it. If it were the beautiful gauntlet absorbing it, they might still be saved. But it was the black, demon-like gauntlet that was absorbing it. Then, there was only one title that suited Ainz.
“-Demon Lord.”
One of the knights whispered. Those words slipped into his neighbour’s hearts. There was no better word to describe the mysterious noble who trampled on two hundred thousand men and collected their souls. This scene of hell. And the screams of the dying. And to descrate it further, there was only one title for a man who could.
Theory: The ring of sustenance is given to Aura specifically and not Mare, since Aura has a lot of class-subordinates with her being a beast-master. My theory is that Aura has a skill that shares (some of) her passives (from equipment or otherwise) with her class-subordinates/pets. This would allow for the main disadvantage of the large number of subordinates (costs in food etc.) to be removed. (otherwise it would have been more likely that Mare would have that ring instead, as Aura already has the Bukubuku watch.)
Super Cut series made me rewatching your videos and comparing them made realise how fae you have come. It's that your old videos were bad it's just your current style is amazing. It's like watching a TH-camr Character arc, so i hope you keep up the good work.
I like the super cuts ngl, helps remember some of the details and aspects that I had already forgotten between the waiting times of the seasons, making it easier to see different moments in a more informed perspective.
51:39 shalltears vampire brides are POP monsters not mercenary monsters. They will constantly respawn. Vampire brides have no upkeep costs because they are undead. The demon lords upkeep was never mentioned but since they don’t need to eat, drink or sleep, they also shouldn’t have a cost
you’re mention of the different color eyes is probably correct I just finished invaders of the great tomb and someone in the book mentioned Aura’s eyes as if they were something rare or astonishing can’t remember where or who tho
I can't wait to when we get a video focused on Nazarick itself. It has so many levels, detail and bosses to each place, it's very much well thought out like a lot of things in the novel
I like to imagine Mare was made as a jab at Perro. Where Perro was annoying, perverted, out spoken and would constantly fight with Bukubukuchagama Mare is docile, ernest, shy and submissive to Aura. And as one las slight to Perro he’s also a trap.
On the Elves, the Tolkien representation seems to come from the Nordic's mythology of Alfes. Which are quite similar to the Nymphs in the Greek mythology as an example. Generally described as been a tad smaller than human, but more beautiful and agile. While the Elves from the Anglo - Saxon mythology have more similarities with Sylphs, Sprites or Leprechauns. More smaller than humans with good agility. I was quite surprised to by the Elves representation in Harry Potter which seems to be more in line with the Anglo Saxon view. 😅
If you consider who the author of Harry Potter is, it makes a lot of sense. Imo the best elves will always be those who are similar to Tolkien's view. (Also shared by World of Warcraft, Japanese manga/anime, etc. If you want some short disgusting creatures, you can always say they are imps, goblins or so. Elves remain as "the magic and upgraded version of humans" for the vast majority of writers.
I've argued this any times that Tolkien during his travels took lore from the middle east cause u can see many inspirations from Asian Greek n African mythology in his tales
Ainz Karma rating must be 0 since he's indifferent to killing people but will still go out of his way to save people like The Villagers of Carne or The Dwarfs.
His karma rating is minus 500 he doesn’t care about anyone outside of the npcs his friends made but he wants to be a “good” king and wont kill people if it benefits him or nazerick like the drawfs with runes. I would say he is still ruthless as he would be fine killing anyone as long as it For his benefits but I respect it
fun fact by the author mare will actually grow up to be an absolute gigachad and his sister oh well lets just say she will outgrow the other guardians by a lot lel
I personally think that Druid, High Druid, Nature's Herald, and Disciple of Disaster are all one class tree that branches after High Druid into the support focused Nature's Herald or the damage focused Disciple of Disaster, and Mare only having 5 levels in DoD but 10 in NH shows that he was intended to be the support to Aura's dps, but they knew better than to make him full support without any significant offense vs lvl 100 players. Forest Mage seems like an alternate version of Mage that is able to cast some basic druid spells as non-divine spells and adds a few of its own. Maybe with the ability to do the higher tier metamagic type spellcasting with druid spells?
You know if you take a close look at the twins stats you can see in some ways Mare is actually stronger than Aura the way I see he has advantages over her and practically almost every field with her only having it in like three considering their Creator made him to be rather docile towards his sister but in the end of a fight I think he would come out on top if you look at their stat sheet at 21:52 you can clearly see the difference in areas between them with him practically like I said having advantage over her and most fields and with her only having an advantage in let's say three
Mare is stronger than his sister tho, having the 2nd highest known stats (with Albedo) among the Floor Guardians.. Aura, without her beasts, is probably the 2nd weakest of the FGs, but Mare by himself is more than capable of dishing out serious damage, given he's able to cast his spells..
the reason aura is even a floor guardian is her ability to gather information, to assassinate, scan (like there's no way any invisible units can get pass her), her summons if im not mistaken can be on par (or even stronger) than dead knights. her summons have their own ability and elemental affinity, aura is a master tactician (her ability to command her summons like soldiers) yeah, all of this will get toasted by mare. but mare might be prone to assassination (which is one of caster's main weaknesses). please do correct me if im wrong tho
Yeah, Mare is ironically far more powerfull then Aura. Whether that's because Bukubukuchagama had a build in mind for Aura and it just didn't pan out or if it was by design.
@@filipvadas7602 I think it's intentional. They were always meant to be fighting together so they're 2 sides to the same coin: Aura is a pure utility build and Mare is a pure damage build. When combined and playing off each other's strengths and weakness they make one very strong build that would be more potent than 2 balanced builds.
I hope that we can see albedos, sebas and demis true form in the future (And i wanna see Rubedo and aureole) Ainz said that all Guardians attack the theocracy but hm i think aureole stays back for defense To bad that aureole didnt buff ainz before the fight vs shalltear so that we could at least See her
I made it all the way to the end, and like always with all your other videos going into detail about the characters of overlord I appreciate the time and the effort you put into this video it was perfect love it keep doing what you’re doing I will always support you
Something to consider is the one thing they lack is a single target bruiser/tank which happens to be their creator. Maybe she took a more practical approach to their use vs her brothers heavily specialized approach. He took the route of a solo duelist whereas he's a single target glass cannon. Whereas she chose to value them to compliment her builds weaknesses like a lack of mobbing or aoe. It's almost like her brother made a character that could challenge his sister's trio. A single unit that accomplishes everything at once whereas she needs her units to supplement her tanks build. It's also cute that mare is lower stated but aura is higher than shalltear. With mare being the one who interacts with her and has a dynamic with her. It could be a parallel to her possible inferiority to her brother in-game game even though irl she's more successful than him irl. It's ironic that her brother is a geek for fetish but she a popular voice actress is too embarrassed to want to be seen as such. I think these are all loose ends with no definite point but I think there's more to speculate in character dynamic and in-game use and interaction with their servants then just what they do by themselves and fetishes people may have.
I listened to the very end. You have a good cadence that makes it easy to accidentally lose track of time. I love your analysis of the various characters.
7:00 mare is more independent than given here but is docile to his sister. You could also say he’s lazy since he likes to oversleep, or lower the temp of his room, and tuck into his bedroll, much to Aura’s disliking
according to light novel dark elves in overlord live in both jungles and underground tunnels. there are some dark elf villages in forests of elven kingdoms and the elfs of forest of tob now live inside underground tunnels
I'd like to think of this duo in terms of Poker. Mare is your "pocket cards" aka "hole cards". In other words, the ones in your hand. She's like your pair of aces or your ace and king of the same suit. Quite effective on their own. Aura is your "community cards" aka the ones dealt face up in the center of the table. With Aura's abilities, she can complement or supplement Mare's arsenal. I'm not saying she's the deciding factor but with her in the field, she can make Mare's pair of aces, or his ace and king become a full house, a four of a kind, a straight, a flush, or even a straight flush. I know it's not the best analogy but it's the first thing that came into my mind lol.
Apparently, Dark Elves in Yggdrasil aren't the dark skinned Drow that usually come to mind when the therm "Dark Elf" is heard. Maybe the regular elves are just super duper pale, or maybe it's the different colored eyes?
I enjoy listening to these deep dives on the characters. I can't always listen it all in one go but I do break it up piece by piece as my day goes along
little trivial knowledge: Tolkien got inspired for elves by germanic/northern mythology. There is a race called: "Alben" - or "Albs". Tall, thin/slender and mostly evil creatures. The german word for nightmare is called: "Albtraum", which is a combined word out of "Alb" and "Traum", directly translates into dreaming about the Albs (or at least having one of them starring in that dream) which are evil, therefor you had a bad dream. ^^
I realised you never covered victim or the giant golem floor guardians I would assume they just have less coverd but would be nice to have a small vid to cover them
One of the reasons I like your vids is we get to see So-bin art that isn't included in the english-language LNs. I have become a big fan of his art since binging the LNs.
Im a long subscriber... Just wanted to thank you for all the indepth insighth to all good anme not only with overlord... Please continue what you are doing...
53:40 though they could be turned into scrolls, the user still needed specific levels pertaining to that scroll to use them. Solution could use the healing scroll given by ainz because of one of her classes to overcome that restriction
I gotta say, I just love this video. Besides being a very interesting topic, you have done a great work making it. The amount of preparation you put in to write the script really shows your passion. And you seem to have good historic and philosophic knowledge too. One criticism I may add is that the background video becomes stale after a while. You could for example show entire scenes of them with subs playing while talking about their lore, ,rather than 20 second clips
I love the contrast of Mare being so self-conscious and so powerful that he was nervous to kill everyone including Jircniv. That kind of situations are the ones that makes me prefer him over Aura, even tho I like tomboys.
Note: The idea of elves, (and other fey) being small is an idea that had it's origin in the Victorian era. Traditionally they were believed to be human like in stature.
I enjoy watching the twins on screen, I like Mare's extremely destructive magic while I also am a fan of Aura's love for beasts. I lean a little more towards Aura, since as a lover of animals in general but also mythical creatures, the magical beasts in anime tickle my fancy.
JRR Tolkien's elves are based more on Scandinavian and Norse folk lore. Ygdrassil, being based on the Norse 9 realms of the world tree, would be from that specifically from the real of Alfheim
There’s also the possibility that within Yggdrasil elves start off rather plane but there classes will change there race depending on which ones are chosen
Disciple of Disaster is confirmed to be a weaker version of World Disaster Plus Aura is noted to be the strongest Floor Guardian in group battles, as her many beasts would be buffed to around level 90
Amazing series. Would love to read a novel and then see a movie about the the Tomb invasion - when palyers attacked Nazarick and were stoped at 8th floor. Would love to see all the power of guardians.
Fun fact about these two characters pay attention to their eyes and you realize they switch places from time to time and the reason is even more disturbing for they have the condition unequal placental sharing
So question.. it was indicated that the ncps heard the guild members talking about their adult games or having kidney stones etc. So the ncps must have memories as far back in the game from before they were created? So wouldnt there be plenty of times that they would have heard Ainz with his irl personality and manorisms? Like him complaining about little things and not always being the big bad overlord he has become?

Would love to see more of bukubukuchagama she seems to be quite the character and a based one at that, not to mention heavily cultured
Well none of the founders exist. So there is nothing more to see. Story is past that point.
That explains why Aura wanted Filo as a pet in Isekai Quartet.
Reading the newest Japanese Overlord LN, the elven kingdom helps reveal more about how strong they are. Especially Mare’s fight with godkin.
I'd like to think of this duo in terms of Poker.
Mare is your "pocket cards" aka "hole cards". In other words, the ones in your hand. She's like your pair of aces or your ace and king of the same suit. Quite effective on their own.
Aura is your "community cards" aka the ones dealt face up in the center of the table. With Aura's abilities, she can complement or supplement Mare's arsenal. I'm not saying she's the deciding factor but with her in the field, she can make Mare's pair of aces, or his ace and king become a full house, a four of a kind, a straight, a flush, or even a straight flush.
I know it's not the best analogy but it's the first thing that came into my mind lol.
9:20 "Fellow Nazarick denizens, no matter how pathetic..." - *inserts photo of Eclair* That's a cheap shot, man LOL
Apparently, Dark Elves in Yggdrasil aren't the dark skinned Drow that usually come to mind when the therm "Dark Elf" is heard. Maybe the regular elves are just super duper pale, or maybe it's the different colored eyes?
I would watch a spinoff of sebas just doing his day to day stuff.
I enjoy listening to these deep dives on the characters. I can't always listen it all in one go but I do break it up piece by piece as my day goes along
little trivial knowledge: Tolkien got inspired for elves by germanic/northern mythology. There is a race called: "Alben" - or "Albs". Tall, thin/slender and mostly evil creatures. The german word for nightmare is called: "Albtraum", which is a combined word out of "Alb" and "Traum", directly translates into dreaming about the Albs (or at least having one of them starring in that dream) which are evil, therefor you had a bad dream. ^^
32:20 I like how you use subura to demonstrate frost lol
Bukubukuchagama's name takes me out every single time you say it. It does NOT get old lmao
35:51 something similar happened to igvarge, before mare gave him a whack, he was suddenly bound by vegetation
I realised you never covered victim or the giant golem floor guardians I would assume they just have less coverd but would be nice to have a small vid to cover them
One of the reasons I like your vids is we get to see So-bin art that isn't included in the english-language LNs. I have become a big fan of his art since binging the LNs.
its incredible how much thought it's been put into Overlord's LN, thanks a lot for sharing
Thank you for this content I can be doing anything and I’ll be listening cause it’s so informative 😩❤
Really good content, and good breakdown on the lore.
Im a long subscriber... Just wanted to thank you for all the indepth insighth to all good anme not only with overlord... Please continue what you are doing...
Mate thanks for these btw. I am studying for my gcse right now and these help me relax. Keep it up
Made it to the end was awesome and very enlightening thank you and keep up the content
53:40 though they could be turned into scrolls, the user still needed specific levels pertaining to that scroll to use them.
Solution could use the healing scroll given by ainz because of one of her classes to overcome that restriction
Naberal Gamma also could because of her doppelgänger race I believe.
Appreciate the detailed supercuts!
1 hours? Did you explain whole overlord man god bless you're best! I like listening your voice, it's calming
Love that this comp is here as soon as I finished 15 and 16.
Bella and Bello are 2 of my favorite Characters in Overlord. they are soo adorable
I could see mare having levels in the wizard equivalent as well. Though that's only a theory as it would make sense for a high aoe caster.
I watched the whole thing, I watch alot of your overlord videos i find them very informative and entertaining
I gotta say, I just love this video. Besides being a very interesting topic, you have done a great work making it. The amount of preparation you put in to write the script really shows your passion. And you seem to have good historic and philosophic knowledge too. One criticism I may add is that the background video becomes stale after a while. You could for example show entire scenes of them with subs playing while talking about their lore, ,rather than 20 second clips
Dude, I literally found your channel yesterday and was looking for Aura and Mare supercut.
Great video! Thank you!
I love the contrast of Mare being so self-conscious and so powerful that he was nervous to kill everyone including Jircniv. That kind of situations are the ones that makes me prefer him over Aura, even tho I like tomboys.
Note: The idea of elves, (and other fey) being small is an idea that had it's origin in the Victorian era. Traditionally they were believed to be human like in stature.
This is my lunch time watch. Thanks for the video pal
YES I always finish all your videos to the end ‼️
Thank you for videos as always ;))
yes all the way to the end. watched to whole thing. I love all your content thanks.
Great video !
Awesome vid!
I enjoy watching the twins on screen, I like Mare's extremely destructive magic while I also am a fan of Aura's love for beasts. I lean a little more towards Aura, since as a lover of animals in general but also mythical creatures, the magical beasts in anime tickle my fancy.
This has to be the fastest I have ever caught a video being posted only 7 sec old I feel accomplished
Just to let you know, i sleep while your channel plays on background and on playlist. Thank you very much
Love your overlord videos!!!
first
I could unironically listen to your voice forever, love your work
Dang, that Ultima shout out, hell yeah! Great analysis of the twins btw!
I’ve never been happier to see an upload about a character analysis ‘til now. well other than rimuru
JRR Tolkien's elves are based more on Scandinavian and Norse folk lore. Ygdrassil, being based on the Norse 9 realms of the world tree, would be from that specifically from the real of Alfheim
Nice as always :)
Very good vid bro 🙏🏽
There’s also the possibility that within Yggdrasil elves start off rather plane but there classes will change there race depending on which ones are chosen
Disciple of Disaster is confirmed to be a weaker version of World Disaster
Plus Aura is noted to be the strongest Floor Guardian in group battles, as her many beasts would be buffed to around level 90
Amazing series. Would love to read a novel and then see a movie about the the Tomb invasion - when palyers attacked Nazarick and were stoped at 8th floor. Would love to see all the power of guardians.
Fun fact about these two characters pay attention to their eyes and you realize they switch places from time to time and the reason is even more disturbing for they have the condition unequal placental sharing
I can't believe I just watched this 1 hour and 15 minute video I don't regret it though
I mean, there's no such thing as too much Overlord, is there? :D
21:10 "I'm just a Dark Elf with a rocket launcher"
So question.. it was indicated that the ncps heard the guild members talking about their adult games or having kidney stones etc. So the ncps must have memories as far back in the game from before they were created? So wouldnt there be plenty of times that they would have heard Ainz with his irl personality and manorisms? Like him complaining about little things and not always being the big bad overlord he has become?
good vid love it
Love this content
Glad to see some clips from Gate. Hope the show gets more love.
Great video mate, idk why you want to know but I'm at the end
I made it to the End !. And is wonderful and entertaining!. Muah compliment to the best Ytchannel!. 😁👍🏼💯
