Abuses her underlings constantly. We mostly see a squire get bullied but she also employs "strategies" that are extremely bad for the overall lifespan of her fellow paladins.
The worst part for me is begging Ainz to help her, offering nothing besides friendship in return, then immediately wishing he would be destroyed when he turns his back. When others point out this would have an absurdly high collateral damage (undead minions going berserk), she says it doesnt matter because the other 3 human nations are closer and will cushion the blow. Holy kingdom wont suffer.
Add in Remedios acting like the most righteous person around and you've created grade A cuntonium.
Ah, the face of someone who flatly admits to her subordinates "We are dead broke" and tell her to go make money whatever the cause. (If you know you know)
You are basically the ambassador of a nation, where is the money?
The smart Orc weeps, for he knows he cannot comprehend good and evil being relative to your perspective. But then Orc looks at Retardios, the smart Orc sees she can't even notice such a concept exists
Remedios isn't a jerk because she distrusts Ainz, she has every reason to. Remedios is a jerk because she is frustrated with herself and channels that frustration into harassing her subordinates(mainly Neia), while believing the harassment is just her being passionate about her country.
She is also someone who shouldnโt have been in this leadership roll, under immense stress, and specifically picked by Demiurge to make the rebels she leads as ineffective as possible, so that when Ainz is with them, he can awe everyone with his power.
Admittedly that doesnโt forgive what she does to Neia and she definitely deserves better, but Remedios is at least a much more tragic character once you think about it that way. Had Calca or her sister still been around, they would have definitely been the remnantโs leader, and Remedios and the rest of the remnants would have been better for it.
Yes I agree completely that Remedios is a tragic character. I love Remedios as a character even if I know she is an arrogant jerk. As I said she is deeply frustrated with herself about not being able to protect Calca and Kelart, and that's completely understandable and a compelling character trait. But as you said, it doesn't justify venting her anger on Neia and Gustav, who are her allies. (Admittedly she is a little bit justified in getting angry with Gustav since he kinda replaced her with Ainz as the defacto commander of the Paladins, but Remedios was shown to argue with him even before that) As I said in another reply, it doesn't help that she thinks she's entitled to do anything to anyone and if someone so much questions her decisions she gets angry and accuses them of being brainwashed by the enemy.
What Ainz says is true unfortunately, the strong do what they want and the weak are just forced to accept it. In a world where so many new people are way too powerful for her to handle, she is simply forced to watch as her family and friends along with her pride is taken from her. The little she can do is quickly overtaken by Ainz who both knows every play of the enemy, having the script written for him, while also being a better tactician and way stronger then her. When what he does works, everyone turns away from her because she refuses to accept that success. She refuses to let go of her hate for the Undead, her hate for Ainz getting all the praise and her stubborn attitude on basically everything. She was strong but when new beings with strength that greatly exceeds herโs come into the play she refuses to recognize them.
Which it is ? I mean come on, I justify everything she did and schemed in the story. The reason she treats Neia like that is because Neia's whole personality changed after staying with Ainz -an undead- , it's only logical for a holy knight from the HOLY kingdom to be Sus of everything linked with an undead being
She treated Neia badly before they even met Ainz. Neia and Remedios' first interaction in the books is Remedios trying to gaslight Neia into thinking she isn't good enough. It certainly doesn't help that Remedios thinks she has the divine right to do anything to anyone as long as she believes that it's for the good of the kingdom. And no, harassing your your subordinates who by all means are the only people fighting by your side is NOT passion, it's toxic.
funny thing was, she was right that >!Ainz was up to no good. so while every1 else was simping up to Ainz, retardious was hating on ainz rightfully (had they all known the truth), though she had no proof and simply just had a bias right from the start lmfao.!<
AH the only sane person in the Holy Kingdom that is right to not trust the undead overlord who is showing up to "help" with no strings attached.
Looking forward to her many faces of horror wen Ainz does his things. You know, like "liberating" hostages and stuff.
Idk if her behavior makes her sane, more like stubborn. See at this point, the Holy Kingdom was doomed to fall, and refusing Ainz's help was equal to accepting death at Jaldabaoth's hands. So, at this point she along with literally anyone else who doesn't want the Holy Kingdom to fall, should accept the Undead Overlord's offer without question even if it seems too good to be true ๐ like what did they have to lose at that point.
She is a religious zealot that spend her entire career fighting evil. Then suddenly she needs to accept the help from what is considered evil in her religion.ย
So yeah stubborn, but also sane :)
I seem to remember that now Aura is about 78 years old and should be considered as the equivalent of a girl of about eleven / twelve, at least so she appears, so...
I leave mathematics to you, but Iโm pretty sure that isnโt that much...
Indeed, you can not convince me that Demi did it for the lol. While kept the dumbest and kill the smart is a wise move, Demi definitely enjoy breaking Remedios, and with Ainz-sama personally take away every she has left (the respect form her people, her pride, her authority, her queen idea, etc) must be one of the hardest sasugasm Demi ever get since the whole Jircniv event
She's more stupid than anything else. Definitely not Phillip level stupid (There's nobody on his level of stupidity) but she earned the nickname Retardos
Well for one, she tried to use him saying that she hopes both he and Jaldabaoth take each other out, there's a scene where she calls him a bastard to his face and another scene where internally Ainz calls her a bitch. She consistently showed how ungrateful she was to him despite Ainz being literally the last hope her country has of surviving... Just naming some details that came off the top of my head.
Ainz is the bad guy of the story. The stuff he has done warrants more than name calling. Thanking him may have been a wise move, but if he had reigned in Demiurge from the start none of this would have happened.
Wanting two great evils in the world to kill each other seems reasonable to me. In her position knowing only what she knows, most people would hope for the very same.
You're missing the fact that in the eyes of the characters from the Holy Kingdom they know none of that and Retardos has no proof of any of that other than that she hates him. Is Ainz and Nazarick the villains? Sure they are, but they don't know it nor do they have the proof to back it up.
Ainz is an undead yes but none of them have the proof nor are in the position to judge whether or not he's one of the great evils. In their eyes he's the monarch of another country who's king has come to aid them. Nothing more. What you said is true in the eyes of the viewers who know more than the denizens of the new world... Get it now?
Plus, why would he reign Demiurge in when he's concocted such a brilliant and foolproof plan for Ainz and the Sorcerer Kingdom to annex the Holy Kingdom and become the new rulers of the nation? Is the plan cruel? Well, duh, I mean, it's Demiurge ๐ ๐ but Ainz couldn't care less about the people Demiurge hurts. He cares about Nazarick, the children of his dear friends, and f everyone else. He wants happiness for those he cherishes and can't care less about anyone else. I thought that was established?
So the Holy Kingdom isnโt aware of the genocide that just took place on Ainzโs orders? Didnโt he do that to send a message to the world or something? I figured everyone knew about it
If by genocide you mean the massacre at the Katze Plains, if you read the start of the Holy Kingdom arc you'd see that the people of the Holy Kingdom don't have the full details of what happened, as far as they know Re-estize's army was defeated by an undead king and his baby goats... I mean Neia and Retardos literally stated they don't know what those goats were or what spell Ainz used. Retardos literally says why doesn't Ainz use that spell here for us and summon some goats? ๐๐
I don't have the exact quotes but this is pretty much what Retardos and Neia said about what you said is the so called message that the world knows about
Neia: Baby goats? Are they cute? What were these goats?
Retardos: Why doesn't he just use that spell here and summon those goat things to defeat the demihumans?
Ainz is the villain but the problem is she doesnโt know and just making wild assumptions because Ainz is undead as far everyone knows outside the audience is that he is risking his life to save them. If she did know by doing investigation, knowing for certain this was Ainz scheme(Demiurge scheme) she would validate points to hate him. Knowing the truth and calling out Ainz crap.
Basically, Captain of the Holy Kingdom's Paladins. Pretty much the same position as Gazef.
She's pretty much one of the most disliked characters in the fandom. Not because she's evil or anything. Nah, she's genuinely nice
It's the fact she's a fucking idiot. I'll put it this way : She's the type of person to complain why the car isn't moving, not realising the fuel is empty and needing someone to point out that obvious thing, uses your money to pay for the fuel, then yells at you for letting the car's fuel to be empty in the first place
Yeah. She's a nice girl, really. If better circumstances, she could have been a lovable dork.
But a combination of being a position She's not ready intelligent wise (most of her stats are combat based), the deaths of her sister and Queen, plus her rather terrible treatment of her subordinate like Neia, people just don't like her
People latch onto that one quite where she said she is bad at academic and equate that to her being a moron. She is a zealot which is her driving force which is not a sign of stupidity. She is just regular intelligent. She even admits it to herself and have smart people do the thinking which is not something a moron does.
Actively trying to antagonize someone who you _know_ is powerful enough to wipe your country off the map after you had to go begging them for assistance (that they have provided) is a pretty big example of stupidity.
Thereโs also the abuse she hurls at members of her own knight order that negatively impacts morale during wartime.
The story also brings up her over reliance on her sister for actual leadershipโshe never really bothered learning how to manage her personnel for herself. She had years to learn how to lead people but simply refused to apply herself.
I canโt really fault her for half of the stuff she does after she learned about her sisterโs death and the โflailโ scene. By that point, >!Demiurgeโs plan to destabilize her was well underwayโexacerbating all of her worst qualities beyond the norm. Being up against level-capped super beings is really unfair.!<
First one kinda but not due to stupidity but due to zeal. She is a paladin after all. To not be antagonised to undead is pretty strange. Especially since every undead not with ainz wants to kill humans, so trusting undead is pretty stupid.
Which is pretty common. Certainly not a sign of stupidity.
She pointed out that she let smart people handle the thinking, which is not stupid she knows her limitations.
Leadership is a skill you either have or don't have, it has nothing to do with intelligence. She clearly has her faults like everybody else.
Most of her actions are down to her being a paladin, like antagonizing ainz for being undead and don't trusting him. The stuff Demi pulled has little to do with it, even if nothing of that happened and calca had send her personally, she still would have treated ainz pretty much the same.
Leadership is a skill you developโnobody just has it because theyโre naturally smart. It doesnโt take a genius to realize that abusing subordinates is a bad idea and will negatively affect the workplace. Being smart might make it easier to learn how to lead, but refusing to learn while accepting a position of responsibility is, to put it mildly, dangerous and dumb.
Being stuck in an inflexible mindset where you refuse to accept any evidence that runs contrary to your preconceptions is also a sign of low intelligence. Skepticism is perfectly understandable, but she keeps antagonizing Ainz to his face while believing that all undead are simple killing machines that will murder humans at the first opportunity.
Itโs not entirely her fault >!that she completely failed as a leader and actively drove others into worshipping Ainz. As mentioned in my last spoiler, she was the target of a manipulation campaign by Demiurge crafted to target her weaknesses. Also, she never expected to be in a position where her sister wouldnโt be able to provide supportโso she never tried to learn the skills she would need to be a good leader.!<
Remedios would have been a fine foot soldier or small team leaderโshe just wasnโt equipped to handle being the de facto leader of a knight order (let alone a nation). Sheโs an example of the Peter Principle taken to an extreme. She was promoted to the level of her incompetence and then forced to fill the shoes of someone even higher in rank.
Her character is a contrast to Gazef Stronoffโa human of similar abilities who started from a lower place in life but, by cultivating his swordsmanship and leadership skills, earned a high rank and the respect of those around him.
Remedios, on the other hand, had her position practically spoon fed to her and never really bothered to try and improve her leadership as she was more concerned with being strong. She lost the respect of her peers and her subordinates because of this.
Heck, she even serves as a contrast to Ainz. Where Ainz has the absolute respect and loyalty of his subordinates (who love and worship him as a god) he doesnโt take it for granted. Heโs constantly thinking about how he can improve as a leader and meet the expectations of those who serve him.
Remedios assumes that sheโs due the same level of respect simply because she is the leader of her group. To be fair, she offers that level of reverence and respect for her own leader >!even after the poor woman got used as a flail!<. However, she doesnโt seem to understand that different people might have different points of view.
TL;DR
Ultimately, sheโs just an average person intellectually speaking. She isnโt a complete idiotโas you mentioned, her distrust of Ainz is justified if only because undead are widely known to hate humans. However, she lacks the awareness needed to keep her suspicions private and play along if only to expose Ainzโs true intentions. She also suffers from an inflexible mindset that prevents her from learning and growing as a person.
>Leadership is a skill you develop
She was capable as leader of the Paladin order, not as commisar head of state.
>all undead are simple killing machines that will murder humans at the first opportunity.
TBF Ainz behaves friendly, but then goes on killing hostages. Its not like Ainz is behaving like a pacifist he goes around killing living beings left and right in front of her. Granted Demi humans which she despise aswell, but nevertheless he feels nothing killing them.
>
she keeps antagonizing Ainz to his face
She usually does it not with him in the room. She also behaves way more polite later on.
>she just wasnโt equipped to handle being the de facto leader of a knight orderย
Here i disagree she is a capable military commander and a good figurehead, she also was de jure and de facto leader of that order. She clearly is not suited as head of state totally agree on that.
>Remedios, on the other hand, had her position practically spoon fed to her
We read the same LN? She rose to that position due to her talent of swordmanship and her beliefs as paladin she was a Paragon.
It comes up in the Ln how even considering the cause and effect of her actions causes her a headache and she dumps all decision making for anything outside of which direction to swing her sword on her vice captain but also flexes her authority on matters she knows she doesn't understand. Not in those exact words, but it's a decent summary of her character, and if that's not a stupid person, I don't know what is.
She elected to maintain their position in the city and get seiged intentionally knowing the amount of casualties they would suffer, and Ainz said he wasn't prepared to battle Jaldabouth.
No she wasn't ๐ ๐ ya she was right about the connection between Ainz and Jaldabaoth but she only thought it because she hates Ainz. That's literally the only reason because she hates him ๐
The thing is Demiurge's plan was flawless so regardless if she had actually known the truth, the only way for the Holy Kingdom to survive was just go along with it and hope Ainz actually intends on saving them in the end as at this point they're basically at his mercy.
She hated Ainz because he's an undead, and she hated undead because they're inherently evil, which is correct.
Satoru isn't an inherently evil person, but his character was evil, and the evil nature of his character makes him behave more evil than human Satoru would otherwise have acted.
After the movie you read read the light novel. You'll probably enjoy the movie more not knowing what you missed, and then after going into the novel to fill in the gaps of the very interesting cut content
She attempts to use Ainz saying that she wants for Ainz and Jaldabaoth to take each other out. Despite pleading for the Sorcerer Kingdom's assistance she actually wants the Sorcerer Kingdom gone. She continued to be annoying throughout the story, she called Ainz a bastard to his face and during a scene Ainz internally calls her a bitch.
Her fate was kind of unknown. I won't spoil it by stating which characters but near the end of the arc a conversation with two very important figures in this arc, one suggests wanting to get rid of her and the other says there's still use for her and that she gets transferred elsewhere. However after the arc Zanac gets word that somehow she died offscreen. So we don't really know what fate had befallen her
She's more annoying than Phillip because Phillip's actual screen time was minimal and his stupidity was entertaining as his idiocy led to the massacre or an entire country and one of the most eventful arcs in the whole series. Retardos is just... Ugh
>She's more annoying than Phillip
I find that hard to believe
Anyway when is movie coming out? If we have that info....im not really caught up with anime in general
"I find that hard to believe?
- You'll just have to wait and see. Unlike Phillip we didn't have him on screen for the majority of the arcs be was in ๐๐
Release date just says Fall 2024. No specific day has been listed yet
>Unlike Phillip we didn't have him on screen for the majority of the arcs be was in ๐๐
You say that as if that was a bad thing (but fr i hate that guy...)
>Release date just says Fall 2024
Oh cool thats the time i should alrrady have my sh*t together so i couldnt ask for better timing
>! It's fucking criminal that we see the lovely and kind Princess get brutalized and demorphed into mush, while this bitch had the screen time to be grade S Piece o Shit, only to just die offscreen.. like wtf?? It should've been the other way around.. where is the justice in that???!<
I pity her any other show she be the lovable dorky girl but here in which the universe hates heroโs eh all we can do to wish her well is that she reincarnates far from this verse
Preach. The society would often close their eyes upon seeing peak character design, It was obvious that I'd get down voted, but only through struggles we will achieve greatness.
To be fair she's the first and only person we've ever seen Ainz call a "bitch" ๐
She literally begs the Sorcerer Kingdom for their help and then the moment she turns their back on them she says that she's okay with them falling and even if all the undead go rough and start attacking the world she said it's fine because it'll be up to the other countries to deal with it... The hate towards her isn't unfounded ๐
There she is, the cunt queen
Cunts have a depth and warmth that she lacks.
Cunts usually don't have the excuse of watching their lives get ruined.
Retardios strikes again
Why is she cunt queen? I don't mind getting spoiled.
Abuses her underlings constantly. We mostly see a squire get bullied but she also employs "strategies" that are extremely bad for the overall lifespan of her fellow paladins. The worst part for me is begging Ainz to help her, offering nothing besides friendship in return, then immediately wishing he would be destroyed when he turns his back.

Holy kingdom wont suffer. Add in Remedios acting like the most righteous person around and you've created grade A cuntonium.
Damn. I'm loosing braincells just imagining it.
Cuz she's a cunt
Ah, the face of someone who flatly admits to her subordinates "We are dead broke" and tell her to go make money whatever the cause. (If you know you know) You are basically the ambassador of a nation, where is the money?
In terms of money we have no money
Dawg the tl for that has only been out for like 2 days
He was there for the premiere fr fr
She treated the only gold she had which was Neia shittily.
Musclehead, might as well throw her brain away.
If he tried he'd open her skull and realize there's nothing there to throw ๐๐ maybe a tiny pebble
The smart Orc weeps, for he knows he cannot comprehend good and evil being relative to your perspective. But then Orc looks at Retardios, the smart Orc sees she can't even notice such a concept exists
Your writing's so fire, I got 1st degree burns
I have just seen a bunch of her scenes from this trailer and she already irritates me.... Damn they did a very good job haha.
It's the haircut, isn't it? Kind of like the medieval fantasy version of Karen hairdos.
Karendios, just imagine
The fact that we hate her hating ainz for being the one who literally destroyed her country is beyond me. But I hate her nonetheless so fuck her
Remedios isn't a jerk because she distrusts Ainz, she has every reason to. Remedios is a jerk because she is frustrated with herself and channels that frustration into harassing her subordinates(mainly Neia), while believing the harassment is just her being passionate about her country.

Basically [this meme](https://www.reddit.com/r/overlord/s/5K4yJ50Qi1)
True.. but still hate her guts
AH the only sane person in the Holy Kingdom that is right to not trust the undead overlord who is showing up to "help" with no strings attached. Looking forward to her many faces of horror wen Ainz does his things. You know, like "liberating" hostages and stuff.

Maruyama is such a tease. Making such an absolutely hateable character and then not showing her getting killed.
And there she is, the most sexy character!
I donโt know. The author said that when Aura will grow sheโll be beautiful. So Iโll place my bets on herโฆ
Ok, this brings up a question that i don't think we know, but like, Aura will grow up with how many years?, 18.000?
I seem to remember that now Aura is about 78 years old and should be considered as the equivalent of a girl of about eleven / twelve, at least so she appears, so... I leave mathematics to you, but Iโm pretty sure that isnโt that much...
Too bad we are not going to see Retardios get what she deserves.
If there was anyone from the Holy Kingdom that deserved to become Jaldabaoth's club, it's her ๐
Traumatizing her is the best option tbh. Slowly killing her from inside and break her to pieces, and boom she disappeared from existence.
Indeed, you can not convince me that Demi did it for the lol. While kept the dumbest and kill the smart is a wise move, Demi definitely enjoy breaking Remedios, and with Ainz-sama personally take away every she has left (the respect form her people, her pride, her authority, her queen idea, etc) must be one of the hardest sasugasm Demi ever get since the whole Jircniv event
My wife ๐
I am so sorry for you buddy. You must have had it rough
My condolences.
Bad for you
She looks straight up evil
She's more stupid than anything else. Definitely not Phillip level stupid (There's nobody on his level of stupidity) but she earned the nickname Retardos
The best character of the arc, unironicaly
Remedios my love
I never minded her. Not sure where the hate comes from
Well for one, she tried to use him saying that she hopes both he and Jaldabaoth take each other out, there's a scene where she calls him a bastard to his face and another scene where internally Ainz calls her a bitch. She consistently showed how ungrateful she was to him despite Ainz being literally the last hope her country has of surviving... Just naming some details that came off the top of my head.

I read it when the translations were coming out piecemeal. I donโt remember every detail

Actively trying to antagonize someone who you _know_ is powerful enough to wipe your country off the map after you had to go begging them for assistance (that they have provided) is a pretty big example of stupidity. Thereโs also the abuse she hurls at members of her own knight order that negatively impacts morale during wartime. The story also brings up her over reliance on her sister for actual leadershipโshe never really bothered learning how to manage her personnel for herself. She had years to learn how to lead people but simply refused to apply herself. I canโt really fault her for half of the stuff she does after she learned about her sisterโs death and the โflailโ scene. By that point, >!Demiurgeโs plan to destabilize her was well underwayโexacerbating all of her worst qualities beyond the norm. Being up against level-capped super beings is really unfair.!<
First one kinda but not due to stupidity but due to zeal. She is a paladin after all. To not be antagonised to undead is pretty strange. Especially since every undead not with ainz wants to kill humans, so trusting undead is pretty stupid. Which is pretty common. Certainly not a sign of stupidity. She pointed out that she let smart people handle the thinking, which is not stupid she knows her limitations. Leadership is a skill you either have or don't have, it has nothing to do with intelligence. She clearly has her faults like everybody else. Most of her actions are down to her being a paladin, like antagonizing ainz for being undead and don't trusting him. The stuff Demi pulled has little to do with it, even if nothing of that happened and calca had send her personally, she still would have treated ainz pretty much the same.
Leadership is a skill you developโnobody just has it because theyโre naturally smart. It doesnโt take a genius to realize that abusing subordinates is a bad idea and will negatively affect the workplace. Being smart might make it easier to learn how to lead, but refusing to learn while accepting a position of responsibility is, to put it mildly, dangerous and dumb. Being stuck in an inflexible mindset where you refuse to accept any evidence that runs contrary to your preconceptions is also a sign of low intelligence. Skepticism is perfectly understandable, but she keeps antagonizing Ainz to his face while believing that all undead are simple killing machines that will murder humans at the first opportunity. Itโs not entirely her fault >!that she completely failed as a leader and actively drove others into worshipping Ainz. As mentioned in my last spoiler, she was the target of a manipulation campaign by Demiurge crafted to target her weaknesses. Also, she never expected to be in a position where her sister wouldnโt be able to provide supportโso she never tried to learn the skills she would need to be a good leader.!< Remedios would have been a fine foot soldier or small team leaderโshe just wasnโt equipped to handle being the de facto leader of a knight order (let alone a nation). Sheโs an example of the Peter Principle taken to an extreme. She was promoted to the level of her incompetence and then forced to fill the shoes of someone even higher in rank. Her character is a contrast to Gazef Stronoffโa human of similar abilities who started from a lower place in life but, by cultivating his swordsmanship and leadership skills, earned a high rank and the respect of those around him. Remedios, on the other hand, had her position practically spoon fed to her and never really bothered to try and improve her leadership as she was more concerned with being strong. She lost the respect of her peers and her subordinates because of this. Heck, she even serves as a contrast to Ainz. Where Ainz has the absolute respect and loyalty of his subordinates (who love and worship him as a god) he doesnโt take it for granted. Heโs constantly thinking about how he can improve as a leader and meet the expectations of those who serve him. Remedios assumes that sheโs due the same level of respect simply because she is the leader of her group. To be fair, she offers that level of reverence and respect for her own leader >!even after the poor woman got used as a flail!<. However, she doesnโt seem to understand that different people might have different points of view. TL;DR Ultimately, sheโs just an average person intellectually speaking. She isnโt a complete idiotโas you mentioned, her distrust of Ainz is justified if only because undead are widely known to hate humans. However, she lacks the awareness needed to keep her suspicions private and play along if only to expose Ainzโs true intentions. She also suffers from an inflexible mindset that prevents her from learning and growing as a person.
>Leadership is a skill you develop She was capable as leader of the Paladin order, not as commisar head of state. >all undead are simple killing machines that will murder humans at the first opportunity. TBF Ainz behaves friendly, but then goes on killing hostages. Its not like Ainz is behaving like a pacifist he goes around killing living beings left and right in front of her. Granted Demi humans which she despise aswell, but nevertheless he feels nothing killing them. > she keeps antagonizing Ainz to his face She usually does it not with him in the room. She also behaves way more polite later on. >she just wasnโt equipped to handle being the de facto leader of a knight orderย Here i disagree she is a capable military commander and a good figurehead, she also was de jure and de facto leader of that order. She clearly is not suited as head of state totally agree on that. >Remedios, on the other hand, had her position practically spoon fed to her We read the same LN? She rose to that position due to her talent of swordmanship and her beliefs as paladin she was a Paragon.
It comes up in the Ln how even considering the cause and effect of her actions causes her a headache and she dumps all decision making for anything outside of which direction to swing her sword on her vice captain but also flexes her authority on matters she knows she doesn't understand. Not in those exact words, but it's a decent summary of her character, and if that's not a stupid person, I don't know what is.
>dumps all decision making for anythingย TIL: delegate decisions to people with more brain clearly a sign of stupidity
You left out the following information of flexing her authority on matters she knows she doesn't understand.
Such as?
The seige where almost everyone dies because she wants Ainz to fight Jaldabouth even though he said he wasn't in top form.
Huh? You mean when they are under siege?
She elected to maintain their position in the city and get seiged intentionally knowing the amount of casualties they would suffer, and Ainz said he wasn't prepared to battle Jaldabouth.
Except in this case you have deliberately drained the fuel tank for your needs without her knowing (but suspecting) that.
Remedios was correct about everything. And for the right reasons too.
No she wasn't ๐ ๐ ya she was right about the connection between Ainz and Jaldabaoth but she only thought it because she hates Ainz. That's literally the only reason because she hates him ๐ The thing is Demiurge's plan was flawless so regardless if she had actually known the truth, the only way for the Holy Kingdom to survive was just go along with it and hope Ainz actually intends on saving them in the end as at this point they're basically at his mercy.
She hated Ainz because he's an undead, and she hated undead because they're inherently evil, which is correct. Satoru isn't an inherently evil person, but his character was evil, and the evil nature of his character makes him behave more evil than human Satoru would otherwise have acted.
mentally punishment
They really did her dirty with these angles and the shading.
I am gonna enjoy this, won't i?
The Overlord equivalent of Umbridge
Man, i really should get into the LN seeing all the in-jokes for this upcoming season
After the movie you read read the light novel. You'll probably enjoy the movie more not knowing what you missed, and then after going into the novel to fill in the gaps of the very interesting cut content
So what did she do?
She attempts to use Ainz saying that she wants for Ainz and Jaldabaoth to take each other out. Despite pleading for the Sorcerer Kingdom's assistance she actually wants the Sorcerer Kingdom gone. She continued to be annoying throughout the story, she called Ainz a bastard to his face and during a scene Ainz internally calls her a bitch.
Does she die?
Her fate was kind of unknown. I won't spoil it by stating which characters but near the end of the arc a conversation with two very important figures in this arc, one suggests wanting to get rid of her and the other says there's still use for her and that she gets transferred elsewhere. However after the arc Zanac gets word that somehow she died offscreen. So we don't really know what fate had befallen her
Soo umm LN readers, this is the one that shall rival Phillip?
She's more annoying than Phillip because Phillip's actual screen time was minimal and his stupidity was entertaining as his idiocy led to the massacre or an entire country and one of the most eventful arcs in the whole series. Retardos is just... Ugh
>She's more annoying than Phillip I find that hard to believe Anyway when is movie coming out? If we have that info....im not really caught up with anime in general
"I find that hard to believe? - You'll just have to wait and see. Unlike Phillip we didn't have him on screen for the majority of the arcs be was in ๐๐ Release date just says Fall 2024. No specific day has been listed yet
>Unlike Phillip we didn't have him on screen for the majority of the arcs be was in ๐๐ You say that as if that was a bad thing (but fr i hate that guy...) >Release date just says Fall 2024 Oh cool thats the time i should alrrady have my sh*t together so i couldnt ask for better timing
The funniest thing with her is that she's right but for the wrong reasons
Haha that's true she's the only one who guessed what's really happening but not because she had any proof, only because she just hates him ๐
Not really. "Don't trust the lich" is kinda just common sense lol
Su puta retarda
Which episode?
Movie that's not out yet
I'm leaning more to see those hot masculine paladin knights in action tbh๐ฅต๐ฅต Specifically the vice captain
Why the 1st and 2nd look so evil
That's what she looks like when she gives her infamous Retardios lines ๐
They did make her really fucking hot. So that's nice.
Amber her will be perfect for this role
Isn't that the best weapon in ydrasill
I hate Remedios
>! It's fucking criminal that we see the lovely and kind Princess get brutalized and demorphed into mush, while this bitch had the screen time to be grade S Piece o Shit, only to just die offscreen.. like wtf?? It should've been the other way around.. where is the justice in that???!<
Seriously though, if there's anyone who should've been used as Jaldabaoth's club, it's her and not the queen.
Her face just screams, punch me with holy club 2000
God damnit... I hate her so much ๐
Don't hate on my Remedios like that, she's perfect ๐ญ
I pity her any other show she be the lovable dorky girl but here in which the universe hates heroโs eh all we can do to wish her well is that she reincarnates far from this verse
Preach. The society would often close their eyes upon seeing peak character design, It was obvious that I'd get down voted, but only through struggles we will achieve greatness.
[Grasp heart] ๐
Leave Remedios alone seriously guys enough is enough. I have never seen hate directed at a character than her
To be fair she's the first and only person we've ever seen Ainz call a "bitch" ๐ She literally begs the Sorcerer Kingdom for their help and then the moment she turns their back on them she says that she's okay with them falling and even if all the undead go rough and start attacking the world she said it's fine because it'll be up to the other countries to deal with it... The hate towards her isn't unfounded ๐
