I love me some Picross, and have since they released a Picross Pokemon game years back (on the original DS, I think), so I'll be all over this if/when it comes out on the British estore. This is the 4th game they'll have released for the Switch, that I know of and I already own the previous 3 and have done most of the puzzles in all of them (except Mega Picross; which just gives me a headache frankly). I hope they start doing some more anime stuff, because I'd love a Slime Picross or another new Pokemon one too.

Apparently there's also a movie coming out. According to rumor Season 4 should cover volume 10 and 11, and movie 12 and 13. Volume 10 and 11 are more back in the funny empire building and accidental intrigue territory so it should make for a fun season.

I just want to say that I've read all the ebook lightnovels in a row at work (It's been real slow lately) They are kind of short for $10 a pop, but overall I don't regret my $10-20/day habit. The creepy parts weren't as bad as I thought they'd be from this thread, although they were still pretty bad. I mean they are our anti heros, but they are still emotion dampened or hateful monsters at heart, it's in character, though a little too over glorified.

You see in the great arc of justice if I remove 100,000 enemy civilians now I can safeguard the lives of 10,000,000 children over the next decade. I call that a moral trade.

So my google-fu is failing me, is this made by a different production company? If feels like a completely different show compared to previous seasons. The animation is more cartoony, and there is much more focus on Ainz being a normal person who RPed as a murder hobo placed within a bunch of actual murder hobos. Which makes me hopeful, because the other seasons seemed like they glorified the cartoonish evil of Nazarick and company and always made me feel uneasy. Season 3 was straight up sadism porn.

I didn't ever finish season 3 just because it had strayed further and further away from the "Ainz is over his head but trying to cosplay as evil to his minions don't off him" to pure evil for evil's sake. Which admittedly is probably not the fault of the anime.

We're not going to the worst evil poo poo that the light novels delve into, but worth iterating that Ainz isn't the good guy.

Yeah this is such a loving weird show to watch, because you get all these genuinely funny and charming interactions between Nazarick denizens (holy poo poo the maid trying to climb up the wall to follow Ainz while he was giving a rooftop monologue) but then you get character building and sympathy towards outside characters who then get messily tortured and killed by the no longer funny Nazarick peeps. A show where Nazarick was just a bunch of goofy harmless villains like the bad guys in Love After World Domination would probably be a lot smoother to watch, but I dunno if it would actually be as good without that tonal whiplash. I dropped the light novel around the Holy Kingdom arc because it just became too mentally draining, but I'll give the anime another chance to pull me in.

Honestly, the workers arc was imo the low point of the LNs when it comes to pointless over the top evil torture porn, and the anime completely ignored the worst aspects of it and hustled through it much faster than the LN did. Ainz actually being evil is part of the charm, but that arc had no real purpose beyond "look at the many horrible ways they can torture you to death in Nazarick! wasn't it cool how we introduced all these characters and gave them tons of dialogue and characterization only for them to die horribly in the same volume?"

I know he's not a good guy, I just liked it more in season 1 where he's largely being super-lovely to people who deserve it and passively lovely to everyone else (outside of his crew). It's much easier to stomach than "I set up an elaborate scenario just so I could torture a bunch of adventurers" Ainz of season 3.

After that is two of the best parts of the story (spoilers for this season I think) Ainz trying to be best Emperor bros and clowning on dragons.

Everything goes Ainz' way without any effort, even coincidences fall in his favour. Meh. 12 and 13 are pretty funny though. Kanos posted:Thankfully that's probably the low point of the entire story thus far. It's actually LN14: Ainz allows the entire population of the Kingdom to be slaughtered by Nazarick because he was too much of a coward to correct Demiurge and Albedo's misinterpretation of one of his off-hand mutterings. Millions dead because he wouldn't say "no no, plan A is fine".

I was assuming the info in the latest episode that "Demiurge is handling the situation/doing his own thing for the Kingdom" meant Demiurge was doing something horrific that Ainz was completely misunderstanding, and would only realize was so horrific later, so I assume that's roughly what your spoiler pans out to.

There is a bright point in a future arc. CZ makes a friend in a nice sideplot. Neia ends up making a cult that worships Ainz, but that's pretty positive in a relative sense right?

I'm not going to lie the dissonance pleases me in a weird way. Like in the latest episode the rapid fire change-up between Albedo and the creep where he has no idea what situation he's in and she never lets the mask slip. The crime boss lady and the creep where she knows that he's essentially just expressed his desire to tongue-kiss a WMD. Albedo and the crime-boss lady where she is absolutely terrified beyond the fear of death over what's about to happen. And Albedo and the princess where they are actually just weird extremely sinister friends chatting about their boyfriends over a rousing round of mystery cube.

"Maybe he wasn't really thinking?" The one man in the Empire who can see through all of Ainz's schemes. Honestly the Emperor cheering like crazy for the Warrior King the whole fight while Ainz complains in his head about crowd favouritism was top tier comedy.

Ainz living in the emperor's head rent free despite not making any concrete attempts to do so and not realizing that he's doing so is one of the funnier running gags in the series.

I really like all the different layers to the narrative and the use of perspectives. I find myself rooting for all different sides of things and praying for the survival of the likable humans as they navigate their way through the dangers that I'm fully aware of as a reader, and hoping that Ainz will somehow bumble into saving them.

So I really like the ED, and the lyrics feel particularly relevant to the story at this point:quote:My flower was blooming, Ainz wants nothing more than to return to the days when he played games with his friends. That it's becoming increasingly obvious they're never going to show back up is eating at him, all the while he feels obligated to adhere to the expectations of the NPC's his friends created, even though he realizes he is slowly becoming an inhuman monster in the process. Despite all his good intentions it feels like this season could very well be the pivot point where he stops caring about those outside Nazarick and tips full into world conquest and subjugation so long as it means the Nazarick NPC's - the last remaining fragments of his friends - remain safe.

Just watched episode 5 and it's good to see it getting back in it's stride; first 3 episodes were quite slow.

This was a fun episode for Shalltear. I really like the aspect of Ainz trying to help the NPCs actually grow as people. We saw it last season with Cocytus too. Just a shame Demiurge's growth comes in the form of, "Actually I don't need to ask permission first before doing some war crimes." Thanks Albedo. Also I'm a simple-minded nerd so I get a big kick out of stuff like Ainz's instant fortress spell or Shalltear using mass hold monster to such good effect.
