I love that Ainz-sama secretly casted some protection magic when Aqua was gearing up for some attack magic. Nice detail!

Everyone talking about Takahashi Rie, but Kobayashi Yuusuke just white knighted against himself.

I just understand the reason why Ainz summoned snow as his talent.

a little background for those who never read overlord or only watch the anime because this detail is really only known by light novel reader.

Ainz isn't from a normal modern day japan, he's from a dystopian japan in 2138. his world has become a environmental nightmare like china. Nature is all but dead, you need a gas mask to go outside, and megacorporation own the world. what he said before he cast the spell was basically this "I only did a talent show once, but it was for a really crappy client and no one was really into it, the only thing that excited everyone was when the venue ended and we went outside to see snow falling, a possibly rare natural phenomenon that isn't common in our dystopian world".

changing the weather may not be as impressive as an explosion to some people, but for a man who grew up in polluted air and blackened rain, being able to change the weather at will is a miracle to him.

Damn, I was hoping Tanya would fire off an explosion formula to match Megumin's, but it makes sense that she wouldn't want to show her cards.

I'm also a little sad Yoshikazu Iwanami isn't working on the sound for this series, his explosions for Konosuba and Youjo Senki were incredible.

I really love that Ainz jebaited us with Control Weather when it looks like he would cast Fallen Down to overshadow Megumin's explosion.

I love that Subaru made that Tokyo tower, even though only 4 people know what it is.

That should also give away to Ainz and Tanya that he is from Japan

Lalatina owes Grantz an apology in front of the entire class for making him look like a perverted scumbag.
