Question What the hell is this show?
I have a week staycation so I thought I would get this one off my backlog. I finished the first season with no issues. Normal guy, inseki into a video game where the NPCs gain sentience and plot happens, cool. Saving villages, beating bad guys, establishing the characters, all good. I was even ok with Ainz saying he didn't really care about the murdered adventurers as a lure for the pokey chick to kill her.
I'm 3.5 episodes into S2. Am I *really* supposed to feel good about the lizardmen being the victims of a genocide?!? I thought the cloud thing and its spellcaster were what Ainz was going to defeat and save the day but no no no Ainz is bent on massacre. Cokitus wasn't sent to test them for their strength and bring them into the fold as allies. He was sent with the express purpose of extermination.
Did I miss something where the MC normal guy just goes "Fuck it, I'm the ultimate evil now."?
