Overlord 2x8 (Full)

Appreciate the "Simple & Clean" intro,

So this is what Bradley got up to after Fullmetal Alchemist.

I can't be mad at Sebas because he's simply acting as his creator dictated, which is to say, emulating his creator who had a more heroic and kind-hearted streak to him. Which makes Sebas stand out from the rest of Nazarick because while he does have Nazarick's best interests at heart, he's also a selfless individual and can't ignore those in need as doing so would go against his personal beliefs as well as the legacy of his creator. While Ainz is the sole remaining Creator, all of the guardians still hold their own creators in the highest of regards, Ainz only gets bonus points from them because he's the one that didn't abandon them from their point of view. Solution is just the polar opposite of Sebas and shares that hatred of humans with the majority of Nazarick so the idea of helping any of them is extremely disturbing to her. Recall that Nabe had the same issue and Ainz had to basically train her to get over that or she'd blow their cover.

My take: pause as much as you want. I'd rather have you pause to talk about something, then go back a few seconds before resuming, than having you two miss out on information or important story beats because you talked about something without pausing.

I feel most viewers (such as myself) watch your videos not to focus so much on the show but to hear what your thoughts and views on it are. That said, when pausing make sure to go back a few seconds so you don't miss dialogue! Happy yapping :)

Oh yea... the chuuni character :P

I dont think there is an issue with the quantity of pauses. I think the bigger issue is the timing of the pauses. Pauses like when Karlii was trying to get a better look at Lady Lakyus' face is an example of a good pause; it has a reason, and it maintains the reaction immersion. One of the bad examples that I have seen people do, is when they pause in the middle of a fast and wordy conversation for two reasons. First, it takes a bit to get the brain to focus in again on the anime because the brain is still processing what was said during the pause. Second, sometimes what is said just a little later changes the meaning or context making the pause not have as much value. I think you guys do the pauses well. I like the little banter between you in the pauses.

Sebas, Climb, and Brain had quite the intense first meeting. From training Climb to get past his fear of death, to being surrounded by assassins! It's one thing for an OP mc show to switch focus to side characters, but it's another thing to do it well. I'm personally enjoying the Sebas POV.

I actually think that Solution is in the right. Everyone in Nazarick is supposed to act in a way that benefits Nazarick, but Sebas rescuing people and interfering in the middle of the street is pulling a lot of unnecessary attention.

I love how Overlord gives the side characters some time to shine to really emphasize the power gap between Nazarick and the rest of the world. Great balance of stakes and OP fun

no subtitles anymore?

in my honest opinion you guys should pause as much as you guys want to talk for a few reasons; 1. mostly only the Patreons will probably see whats happening during pauses 2. Being a VA and having Exposition is great for those who are there for your actually experiences and opinion instead those here for just "Reaction go Brrr". 3. those who don't want to listen or lose interest can Learn how to Fast forward. (Less viewer retention but only really matters on Youtube.) 4. Down side i see is more editting for Who ever has to Edit for youtube, as well as the video feeling less fluid with the additional cuts while either of you are trying to give Exposition while the Anime is also playing. To clarify you missed a tiny bit of Dialogue 2 episodes ago when Gazef was describing Climbs talent After Gazef and Climbs fight because you were talking about how Slimey the Nobel and Prince was. Gazef Said to his Vice Captain after the session with climb when he was walking off "Sadly he's as Strong as he currently be, he's what merceries like to call Capped at Gold." (it a pretty important Line to remember for future references.) Gazef mentioned to climb "it was Simply Talent" AND mentioned "I learned how to fight during my days as a mercenary." (so alot of Gazef Talent comes from Experience as he is a commoner.) apologies for the Yap. Great videos
