[up][up]He did not harm Cooco Doll or Succulent.

[up]Well then it was changed for the anime. He stated to the corrupt cop that the other guys that could help him were unconscious or dead depending on how hard he hit them.

Also does fatally wounding someone count as Torture? Cause all he did in the Anime was kick a hole in the guy then leave him to die.

He hit the guy, dude was like 'wait what why are you hitting me I haven't done anything wrong' and then there's some more hitting, then there's a fade to back as he slowly beats the man to death in a presumably very gory manner.

I mean yeah okay he was doing to the cop what the cop did to the prostitutes but, y'know, a good guy probably shouldn't be taking so much pleasure in inflicting pain. So yeah, I don't consider Sebas to be terribly heroic.

Oh yeah I forgot about the initial beating. Which was primarily trying to get if he understood what he did was wrong. Then realizing he was true scum and fatally wounding him.

Also looking a the passage from the novel when he met the guy. Sebas states that the rest of the guys he encountered are "dead or unconscious with their legs and arms broken."

Really any NPC’s that aren’t evil are at the very least Anti-Hero’s/Villains.

[up][up][up][up] In the novels he didn't punch through him. He punched him hard enough to rupture his organs and left him there to slowly die from it.

As the guy he killed was in the act of raping and beating a woman to DEATH.... yeah. Go, Sebas! tongue

Did Sebas ever take pleasure from it, all I remember is him being sickened by the fact they guy didn't even understand what he was doing was wrong.

The biggest issue with Sebas is that his punishments are (excuse the obvious pun) draconian. Sebas is one of the the good NPCs simply because he's willing to go out of his way to help people without attaching strings or thinking of the benefits to Nazarick. It's to the point Sebas thinks he's cursed since he's not like the others due to him upholding Touch Me's code, which I think the anime cut. Likewise there are couple of good NPCs willing to go against Nazarick, to the extent they can, and seeing as the anime insists on ignoring Nigredo it either has or will be ignored.

If a person does bad things for good reasons, does that make them good or bad? If they do good things for bad reasons?

I am quite certain that these are questions that no man has ever thought to ask before. Truly, I am a philosopher without peer.

[up][up] Well even in those novels this part was fairly... brisk. And depending on how much they want to drag out the tension it could go by in three or four episodes.

And I still kind of want them to go with the Web Novel ending.

No quite yet, first Ainz needs to punish some fools that dare trespass on Nazarick's territory.

You mean torture some poor souls and lead an evil elf slave owner to their doom. I got that just from this episode alone.

That's... weird. I mean Shalltear I could understand, but Albedo? I mean she's hot, even even if you're turned off by Shalltear's apparent age I'm sure there are other characters you could go with.

Is it for the best no one got fleshed out? There's no love lost for Erya, though not sure how the others are supposed to be presented. The only Worker that got any focus was Arche, and we all know how this ends.

Erya was excrement. The rest seem, at worst, opportunistic.

The rest were just a bunch of dudes off to explore a random tomb and see if there were any shinies there. They didn't think it was occupied and, if it was, figured it'd be full of monsters hostile to human life that needed to be destroyed anyway.
