Anime Notes

 * Emperor Jircniv discusses with Baziwood and unnamed scribe in Arwintar about him requesting Ainz to fight on the frontlines in order to ascertain the extend of his power.
 * Marquis Boullope wonders why there has been no word from Prince Barbro.
 * The Great Nobles converse with King Ramposa III at his Royal tent.
 * Gazef talking with Marquis Raeven about his talented strategist, who he placed in charge of the Royal Army, is skipped.
 * There are no Soul Eaters present on the battlefield, only Death Knights.
 * Because of this, Marquis Raeven's group of former Adventurers do not tell him and Gazef about the legend of the Silent City.
 * Marquis Boullope orders the left wing to attack when Ainz begins casting his super-tier magic, whereas in the Light Novel he has them to advance before Ainz appears on the battlefield to distinguish himself.
 * Because of this, Marquis Raeven does not jokingly ask Gazef whether he'll accept the Marquis' "challange".
 * Marquis Boullope is confirmed dead, whereas in the Light Novel, he is only presumed dead due to the left wing he was responsible for being hit by Ainz' super-tier spell.
 * Marquis Blumrush is the one who initially orders the Royal Army to hold their ground against the Dark Young and is killed alongside them, whereas in the Light Novel, he was never seen on the battlefield.
 * The part where Marquis Raeven desperately tries to flee from the Dark Young only to fall of his horse and be saved just in time due to Ainz ordering the monsters to stop is skipped.
