Overlord II Episode 03

"Lizard Men, Gathering" (集う、蜥蜴人 Tsudou, Tokagebito) is the third episode of the Overlord II adaptation. It was first broadcasted on January 23, 2018.

Summary
Zenberu orders his tribe that he will duel Zaryusu. Should the latter win, he would be Dragon Tusk's new chieftain. Zenberu is eager to fight against Zaryusu seeing him as a top grade warrior. Zaryusu agrees on the condition that Crusch be spared should he fall. As the duel between the two progresses over time, Zenberu manages to land a blow on Zaryusu, but he eventually loses due to exhaustion from one of Frost Pain's abilities. After the match, Zenberu later hosts a feast for the two. At the feast, Zenberu pledges to have his tribe join the war against the Supreme One, but asks if they can win. Zaryusu doesn't know, yet feels as if the enemy possesses overwhelming strength were arrogant enough to deliver the warnings to the tribes. Zaryusu plans to exploit that arrogance when their forces clash, though Crusch believes its better to surrender and risk enslavement. The former counters that if they choose enslavement they may risk losing much more, but Crusch believes it to be the best course. Despite their different views, Crusch ask Zaryusu not to die, to which he complies, not until she gave him her 'answer'.

Four days before the undead invasion, the trio then arrive at the village of Razor Tail, where the other remaining tribe have gathered. At the chieftain meeting, the chieftains decide to create a small elite unit composed of the chieftains. To compensate for the lack of leadership in the field, they designate the Head Warriors of each tribe to be the commanders.

Cocytus orders his army to advance, whilst Ainz Ooal Gown has been informed of the development.

Anime Notes

 * Crusch did not not use "Middle Cure Wound" multiple times to support Zaryusu in his fight against Iguva=41 as much as she did in the Light Novel.
 * In the Light Novel, Zaryusu did not let go of Frost Pain upon landing a hit on Iguva=41 with it. Instead, he would continue using Frost Pain to slash at Iguva=41 in his weakened state.
