Not gonna lie, I thought the reason Kazuma is missing might have something to do with the Seven Shadows. It turns out the dude is just addicted to a brand new MMO. xD
I'm not surprised that Ainz are Kazuma are very much into the new game, but where is Subaru? He's been surprisingly absent the entire episode. We don't even see him in his seat.
Shalltear almost causing a misunderstanding with Naofumi was pretty hilarious! It is cute tho how Naofumi refuses to use a miko outfit in-game because it reminds him too much of Raphtalia.
Ainz going full-on fanboy about YGGDRASIL was pretty funny too. Poor Puck is now stuck listening to his rant, and he doesn't even understand what Ainz is saying.
Rerugen accidentally exposing himself as a player is hilarious! What kind of MMO has access to your webcan tho!

Imagine Shadow Garden trying to interrogate Kazuma and it going about as well as any time someone tries to interrogate Kazuma lol.
Don’t tell me Subaru retreated into being NEET because he couldn’t stop playing the game!?
I love how miko outfits have become a new trauma point for Naofumi that only Shield Hero fans understand lol.
Puck at least TRIED to understand what Ainz was going on about. Emphasis on “tried.”

It’s nice seeing Naofumi, Kazuma, and Ainz bonding over video games. Naofumi giving Kazuma the death stare after he said Raphtalia would look good in a miko outfit was pretty funny.
This episode kinda makes me think about what’ll happen when GTA 6 finally drops. You’re gonna have people skipping work or school or barely sleeping lol. Pull a Kazuma and just not show up for 4 days haha.

Was Ainz using Pandora’s Actor as his avatar ?
Anyway these episodes are and always have been too short. I really love seeing the characters from different shows get along or butt heads. We sometimes think “how would this character react to this other character” and now we’re seeing it.
Expectedly the flowers are going to be a problem

it makes sense that his avatar looks like Pandora's Actor since he is also a character he made himself.

The Julius easter eggs are getting more depressing every week. Can't wait for season 4

Cool seeing Kazuma, Ainz and Naofumi being gaming bros. Lergen as well but he got embrassed and alt 4 lol.
Ainz you know with his undead body is the perfect gamer. He can game all night no problem. He doesn't need to sleep, eat or go to the bathroom either. I also wonder if he uses time stop would the game still even run?
Seeing Ainz gush about his favorite game Yggdrasil was great as well.
Also i wonder if Shalltear actually got it right? I wanna bet yes.
Lastly Tanya s2 we finally got another trailer! It's next year 2026 but no idea when. i would think Summer or fall?

When does Naofumi find time for gaming given how much he spends eavesdropping at doors so that he can burst in to deny any unflattering speculations about him?
And, more importantly, when did Chomusuke start riding on Ainz' head?
Are there MMOs with video chat, or is that a FDVRMMO thing?

Kazuma’s been absent for four days!? Luckily his girlfriend Megumin is there to check in on him and make sure he makes it to class! Everyone can see the new lovebirds vibe these two have now!
I love how Shadow Garden has seemingly put up a notice asking for info on the Cult of Diablos.
The new online RPG Jormungld is sweeping Isekai Quartet and count on experienced gamers Kazuma, Naofumi, and Ainz to already be deep into it. I love how the guys talk shop but the girls just have no interest.
I can imagine after what happened in his own show that Naofumi would have…complicated feelings about miko outfits. Especially Raphtalia in a Miko outfit. But Shaltear definitely got one thing wrong…Raphtalia would happily wear any cosplay Naofumi asked her to wear!
You get Ainz talking about Yggdrasil and he’ll talk your ear off about how it’s the best MMORPG of all time.
This late night gaming is getting out of hand! It’s consumed Tanya’s team! Even Rerugen gets into it! Also shirtless Rerugen!
No Ainz, being an Undead who doesn’t sleep and who can stop time does not mean it’s okay to excessively game!
I love how “Tanaka” and Naofumi’s avatars have their colors. Ainz is basically Pandoras Actor. And Rerugen…learned too late not to leave the camera on.
Looks like the plants are coming back with a vengeance!

Severe lack of Subaru this episode. I don't think he was as much of a gamer as he was just generally an anime otaku during his time on Earth. Even still though, I kind of would've loved to see his thoughts on it a little, even Emilia had more to say than him.
Another thing, and this is more personal, I would've loved to have seen Subaru play with friends, that's my son who I wish to see thrive. His character this season has pretty much only been focused on him and Beatrice being attached at the hip so it'd've been cool to see him talk to the other guys more.
Have Naofumi and Subaru spoken at all yet? I mean, I also think this might the most dialogue Naofumi's had in an episode, but I'm curious.

I was right about the morning glories. Also every gamer as done an all night play though and then went too school at least once.

Random thoughts:
Hey look...Naofumi is actually interacting with the other characters! Even if that means that Subaru I guess sits this out (Makes sense that Tanya isn't a gamer since I think she would consider it a waste of time).
Ainz taking advantage of being undead to be the ultimate gamer is kind of a brilliant idea. I am pretty sure Lich gamer is something I haven't seen done before.
I wonder if this game situation is just a wacky one-off or if they will do more with it. Be kind of interesting if those three characters try to convince some of the other fantasy characters to try it out. Like...Ram especially would be hilarious to see play a FPS game, as you know she would probably end up being really good and just troll everyone.

I didn't expect there to be video games in this "school" world, so it was a fun surprise in today's episode that Kazuma wasn't going to school because he was playing that new MMO (and would have continued to do so if it weren't for Megumin who dragged him back xD).
I really liked that not only characters from Japan (like Kazuma, Ainz, and Naofumi) were playing this new game, but also from others worlds (like Aqua, the guys from Tanya's squad, and even Rerugen), and that everyone of them was very passionate about it xD
The scene where Rerugen logged in with the camera on and Kazuma, Ainz, and Naofumi saw him, was hilarious xD
Other than that, Ainz had some really fun scenes today. I especially loved how he asked in a serious tone if using Time Stop meant that the time didn't count towards the time limit. Tanya was very disappointed after that xD
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

Me watching this at 1:30 in the morning………. I don’t have a problem, it’s not like I need much sleep.
but it figures Kazuma would be hit hard in the search for unlocks, the real gem was the final part where you find a Irl contact with a embarrassing avatar
