Overlord EP 1-2 Reaction are up on the channel now! kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooqukp6wh8uZqsUsi=Y-pZeLkpc5heTYjr

[@runner1988]

Yo K so the reason why the ENdings are all still images is that it uses the same art style as the light novel art by Sobin and its a homage to the novel fans and it fits too well for the ED songs i love it. Glad ya liked the OPs and EDs.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Ohhh ok that makes sense, thx for letting me know!

[@luke1119411]

It's not just the same art style, it's actually the same artist for the light novels.

[@elfguy2007]

@@luke1119411 yes it is I have the first 4 LN and I'm looking at them right now its the same "Style"

[@MRDRK1]

How to summarize OVERLORD without spoilers? "A good man in a bad position lucks into being the perfect tyrant by accident. With no dick." Great series. If you can overlook some bad CG later on.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

wtf LMAO

[@xDasMottex]

to be fair we dont know that about bone-daddy maybe he has one made of magic?

[@reverance_pavane]

@@xDasMottex Even if he did (which he doesn't), the emotion suppression effect forced on him by his Undead trait would negate any attempt to use it. Plus he feels very bad about the change he made in Albedo's character code before the transition, which would interfere with any relationship with her. And her resorting enforced love of Ainz would ensure that any potential competitors would suffer for their temerity. A lot. Ainz is going to be her first, and she his!

[@darkcarnage9188]

well you are not wrong there lol.

Don't listen to everyone else, the little vampire's name is Shallchair.

LOL. wkwkwkkwkwkwk. XD

[@dragonnath1113]

I really recomend reacting to Overlord. It's really interesting and different compared to other anime. And the mc is a bit evil while his follower are all evil So yeah we folow the bad guy. 5:22 She's called Abledo and she is a succubus. 15:16 She's called Shalltear Bloodfallen and of course she is a really old vampire so she is legal xd. And yes theyre both fithing for the MC's love. (sorry for my english not native and i'm tired as i'm writing this xd.)

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Yeah I figured he wasn't a "good guy" lool And its ok you did good with your English I understand what you said

[@user-cc9kx8tw6t]

“A bit evil” is an understatement imo. Sure, his underlings are far more openly evil, but I’d argue the MC (Ainz) is just as evil due to his approval of such actions (regardless if he’s aware of it or not). Honestly, I’d describe him more as pragmatic evil. He’ll commit atrocities, but only if it serves to benefit him in some way or to achieve some future goal.

[@dragonnath1113]

​@@user-cc9kx8tw6t yeah truth but while the rest are bad cause they like it or are born that way (exept a few. like sebas who is good but will obey any order no matter how evil) He is more a case of a good guy put in a situation were he forced to do bad things (he was just an ordinary man but is body and mind become that of an undead overlord so i don't really fault him)

[@charanaw112]

Overlord is an awesome anime with huge lore and world building. Its a must watch. Also 1st 2 episodes of overlord are conjoined. better react to them together to better understand the premise.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Will do I'll make sure I record those back to back

[@Honorhhhb]

2:07 “little” hamster hahaha Overlord is my favorite series I’ve read all volumes of the light novels at least 6 or 7 times. I think it’s genius with its parodies and subversions of normal cliches that fit into the serious world. The (spoiler free) premise is an ordinary man from a dystopian world gets transported as his game character into a new world with his base and his various inhuman npcs, which gain sentience. He fakes being an evil grand dictator because he has people relying on him, but he grows into the character he pretends to be.

[@jdoggivjc]

Overlord is great - especially if you like a series where the protagonist is the villain of the series.

[@jdoggivjc]

and yes... Albedo is an absolute yandere.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Oh I enjoy media where the Villain is the focus so this should be fun lol

[@Re_Zero_Fan_Edits]

@@jdoggivjcShe’s actually surprisingly tame when it comes to yandere’s

[@Zolwiol]

@@Re_Zero_Fan_Edits She knows her place. The God of her people is literally walking among them, can't be too yandere for him ;)

[@Re_Zero_Fan_Edits]

@@Zolwiol Yeah, it’s still funny that she is more innocent than most human yandere’s.

[@devonm042690]

As if simply the appearance of that white lizard wasn't enough for scalies, there's actually a scene (in the anime, not just in the novel) of her being mated. Like, with actual movement and everything, and while nothing explicit is shown, it's not something that's played off or in any way obscure or vague. You see it happening, you know what's happening, characters watching (by accident through remote viewing magic) know what's happening, they comment on what's happening, it even prompts the main Skele-bro to consider finding someone to teach the elf children about the birds and the bees because they were among those who saw. It's a pretty long scene, too.

[@cccoster1281]

"Was that an penguin?" - Just the guy that cleans the toilets. ...aaaand perhaps wants to be the new big boss, but everybody is fine with it 'cause of...reasons. In fact he may be the only on of the cute charakters that won't suddenly kill you in the most terrible way you can imagine. XD casually confusing people

[@alexjfranco]

All of these openings and endings, as full songs, are actually pretty fucking good. Also, the art in the outros is done by the original author of the light novels, and if you like hidden things the bass in a couple of these songs is absolutely insane

[@nonaw7529]

[@otherevan296]

Leorio is a real bro fr. As for a selling point that you asked for: it's one hell of a power trip. By the time the fights are ending, it feels completely one-sided. A single word that I could describe this anime with is "Domination" and it's quite fitting, what with the title being "Overlord" and all that It's definitely a pretty good anime. The fanservice exists, as you'd expect in an anime these days, but it's genuinely entertaining most of the time. Especially the intriguing story lines in the later seasons. PS: if my knowledge is correct and i haven't been misinformed by the internet, those illustrations in the EDs were drawn by the author of the Light Novels Overlord was based off of (or, at least, the artist is the same, idk if it's actually drawn by the author of the story)

[@Rhulksgloriouslegs]

so the reason season 3s op and ed are darker is cause it reflects whats happening in that season which is well... dark

[@ODDnanref]

15:16 Since you already watching the series you probably already know. That is Shalltear Bloodfallen. Something you might not know is that she is a vampire cleric. Yup, someone decided to make an undead be able to cast holy magic.

[@Argalia1st]

10/10 anime.

[@Theosis10]

One note about the art since you mentioned it, all of the artwork from the endings are original art that were released with the novels. And I agree they are all so good.

[@tona4x7]

This is everything *for now*. There is still more of the novels not yet adapted. I believe it's a movie coming soon, which will take place in early season 4 chronologically. The novels are still ongoing as well, last I looked.

[@Mcguinness3]

Thank GOD someone who does the OP/ED's in God's intended way! 1OP X 1ED! I get a little annoyed when people do all OP's THEN all ED's ;)

[@luferink5218]

Nice reaction 👌 15:15 My fav character Shalltear Bloodfallen 🩸

[@BigFry9591]

DON'T GIVE THE 60FPS VERSIONS VIEWS! Not only are they not the originals, but changing the FPS of animations ruins them. There's a reason why certain animations are made at certain framerates (there's also a reason why live-action movies are filmed at certain framerates). And, yes, you should watch Overlord. It's an amazing show.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Its too late I cant unwatch it brother LMAO but I will for sure check out the first 2 episodes! But I get what you are saying with the FPS

[@Espectador666]

Don't care that I'm 2 months late in this comment, you talked over the "BEST" line in the season 3 opening. "Anything can be eaten, even is you say no, ha ha ha ha"

[@SajoGotoru]

I have watched over 500 animes till date. I only own figurines of Overlord characters. Also, I have the entire collection of Overlord light novels although its double the price in my country. I think that's enough to tell you whether you should watch Overlord or not. XD Also we are here, if you've seen other reactors you should know that we will give you spoiler free details after every episode.

[@captaingarvielloken2319]

Albedo is the dark haired horned succubus and Shalltear Bloodfallen is the white haired vampire. It's an anime worth watching in my opinion, heard the light novel is great and plan to read it.

[@tommcfeely8707]

Oh yes, definitely read the light novels. There is a good amount of needed information that the anime glosses over or skips completely. Overlord is the only anime to get me to buy the light novels, because I wanted to read what was going to happen after season 3 ended before season 4 was going to be released. I did not like that they delayed the holy kingdom arc for a movie that we are still waiting for. But you'll get more information about the effects of spells, characters, and events that happened that the anime just barely mentions in passing, because it doesn't affect the overall story too much.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Yeah my friend was just telling me that a movie will be dropping for overlord so it sounds like a good time for me to get into the series before that drops! @@tommcfeely8707

the One Piece Character you mentioned with the Claws, his name was Captain Kuro, and the Dude in Overlord with the class which you said is an Elf, lets just say he isnt a Elf. Overlord dont follow the normal Opening Banger and Ending Calm routine like other animes. Opening 3 was covered by Amalee, the Voice Actress of Jingliu from Honkai Star Rail and Marin Kitagawa from My Dress up Darling The Craziest Person who would do anything for love would be Otto Apocalypse from Honkai Impact

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Yeah I'm shocked I didnt remember kuros name oml. But thats interesting to hear that hes not an elf hmm. Amalee is great with every thing I hear from her I cant lie lol. And oh I KNOW about Otto Apocalypse bro was determined on another level to fulfill his goal.

[@azrael7582]

​@@TheSpecialKExperience well its not that big of a deal with kuros name, because One Piece has so many Characters and Kuro got nearly forgotten after his arc. Amalee is really great, i was somewhat shocked that she voiced in Honkai Star Rail. and yes Otto is crazy for his love

[@ShneekeyTheLost]

There's another song related to this series that is amazing, but it has ultra spoilers so I suggest you wait until you get to it organically. It's in the final episode of the fourth season, and is basically a Disney Princes music and dance number. Except... well, again, I don't want to spoil it. You absolutely do want to check out this anime. As far as a selling point? How's this for an elevator pitch: Skele-bro is the protagonist. He doesn't have a plan, but every word he says is something his crew takes out of context and assumes it is some deep and insightful bit of deep lore that will reveal the inner workings of reality. He accidentally lucks into things, which his crew assume was the result of his intricate five-dimensional chess planning. If you enjoyed Eminence In Shadow, you'll like this, the protags have very similar energy.

[@Nuuhku30]

I don't believe you will get copyrighted for reacting to openings and endings of a series even if you don't filter them. never heard of something like that happening to anyone.

[@reverance_pavane]

I do recommend the light novels (although they are not the best written LN I have encountered (although "traduttore, traditore" as they say). The anime is pretty faithful to the books (and the character designs of So-Bin therein), but doesn't emphasise a lot of the subtext/context very well. Especially the fact that Suzuki Satoru is pretty much out of his depth when dealing with other people, especially the newly sentient inhabitants of Nazarick (who are *much* more true to their alignment designations than they really were in the original VRMMO).

[@Honorhhhb]

The light novels are my favorite piece of media of all time, I reread all the volumes multiple times a year. I think they are awesome

[@benr2457]

That ‘elf dude’ that you like is the most sadistic mofo In the series. More evil that everyone else…

[@juliacats5204]

To be completely honest, IS he, tho? Bc dude has a job. It's just a honest work for him. There are plenty of other characters, who spill blood just for fun and pleasure. So IS he most evil? He is one of LEAST unhinged characters. Maybe that's why he is the one to have such bloody responsibilities

[@charanaw112]

Season 2 lizard arc was maybe a bit boring for the average fan but there was lot of world building there. Beside that the rest of the season and all arcs since then have been awesome. Beside it must be said overlord is not an action anime with long ass fights far in between. It's mostly a political scheme anime with slow episodes building up dominoes in order to obtain that satisfactory flush in the last couple of episodes in every season.

[@Omnitron-x]

I would say its unfortunately generic, you have really cool characters and world but it is written most of the time like a generic fantasy/isekai show. It's meh/ok depending on how much you tolerate those
