All of the main cast makes an appearance in one shape or form, the soon to be critical political situation is succinctly described, and future developments teased in all their glory. While this episode is unlikely to change those of a similar mindset, it’s a good refresher overall for Overlord. Lo and behold then the surprise season two announcement which promised (if only partially) to fix those issues round one left behind. Overlord certainly had its moments, particularly later on with Ainz’s fights against Clementine and Shalltear ( Uesaka Sumire)-especially Shalltear-but for me it cut off just as things were getting good.
It was an intriguing twist on the well-worn SAO/ Log Horizon-esque story, although I personally felt the first season was more teaser material and light novel advertisement than standalone show. He doesn’t know why, doesn’t know if he is the only one, and has no firm idea where to start finding an explanation beyond conquering the world. It might have been an exposition-drenched return heavy on new faces, but lacking in Albedo ( Hara Yumi)? Definitely not.Īs anyone reading this probably already knows (and if you don’t go watch the first season, spoilers may be prominent hereafter), Overlord is the story of one kid trapped in a game world as his skeleton avatar Momonga ( Hino Satoshi), otherwise known as Ainz. Yes everyone’s favourite tale of skeletal domination is finally back for more, and no character was left out in this early feast for the eyes. This season’s official start may not be for a few days yet, but Overlord apparently decided to get a head start and begin cashing in on the hype. Talk about ringing the New Year in with style.
