Those admin accounts are still one & done death limited &  in some ways more limited than 5e PCs when it comes to recovery.  The middle seasons have power scales & PC<->NPC interactions more like 8-10ish 5e PCs. I'm not familiar with the stuff in between GS & Sao, but goblin slayer has a grittiness & lethality bordering on a DCC funnel, even the vrgtr "survivor" PCs are more sturdy than both the average as well as the exceptional adventurers in GS, there is no 5e level that compares to goblin slayer even if you look at the not really seen "<a href="https://goblin-slayer.fandom.com/wiki/Hero" target="_blank">The Hero</a>" character.Overlord's world has very few individuals not from nazaric & under ainz's rule that can stand to even the weakest from nazaric.  Even the ones who can sorta kinda pretend for a bit do so only at the use of & usually consumption of artifact grade items that came from the same place as ainz.  It's less obvious in the anime than in the lightnovels but the reason there appears to be such an extreme disparity in power is because basically everyone in the world is a commoner or very  slightly better.  Ainz even frequently remarks & plans for the assumption that there are more optimized unknown PK types in the world to be scared of because he & nazaric were very much not the most optimized in anything but teamwork & the bonds of friendship.</blockquote>
