Overlord is A tier. Everything else I agree with lol.
Good taste.
I think you might get some pepper too
Grimgar deserved D tier man!!
Inside Gigguk's mind: I actually/really liked that show.
The Anime Man: That show is trash.
Gigguk: *Nervous Laughter
I think every isekai is gigguk favourite but he to scared to admit it to joey in case he Ora ora ora the fuck out of him
@@emmemttc This is the best god damn use of the onomatopoeia I've ever laid eyes upon.
MD.SHAHID CHY lol
Includes too much rapey? scenes
Actually, it's mutual.
That moment when isekai quartet is rated higher than some of the shows that are in isekai quartet
Bruh moment
It is kinda funny considering that most people like Isekai Quartet only because of the other shows and not because of the comedy, because no way in hell I consider Isekai Quartet funny as Hataraku Maou-sama
probably because konosuba is carrying them lol
Another thing I think is worth mentioning is that not only if you don't like one show from IQ, or 5, now that you have Shield Hero, it's gonna not entertain you as much, you'd also have to have seen all 5 shows, or at least maybe 3 to understand half the callbacks and references, or you'll just be lost in the wind.
@@kevinmeyer1905 konosuba carried the first season hard. I still enjoyed it but almost all the comedy came from them
The slow world building in Overlord I absolutely love. I love how it takes it time so much with everything making me crave more and more.
Funnily enough, I think Season 3 was my favorite followed by 1 and then 2.
Same overlord was one of the first anime that i watched loved it ever since and we are getting a new season this year btw and i think a movie too i forgor
same, I'm buying all the novels, I havnt even read the first one but I'm upto novel 9 as far as collecting them, freaking love the anime so much for some reason
I think they missed on the details of overlord. You’d have to watch it 4-5 times and read a little bit of lore to truly find its value. Once you do the story is even better then mushoku tensei.
the lightnovel is also at a very slow pace of world wuilding.
Agreed
SAO season 1 is literally the anime adaptation of “They had us at the first half”
LMAO
Yeah definitely on point exactly (what more lol)
The 1st half only is good
yeah, they had me dropping the anime cause its just awful
Every season after the 1st was fucking garbage
TILAPIA VEVO i dont think it’s awful mainly cause the abridged is acc good
My favorite isekais are in both S and F tier.
*Ahh, the perfect combination of trash and culture*
Ikr XD, phew I'm not only one with show from f tier..
The problem is a lot of people only count the anime so good series get fucked over by bad adaptations *cough cough in another world with my smartphone and arifureta cough cough*
TheRevoG smartphone is just trash in general, and arifureta is forgettable in all aspects of its material
@@FranciscoRamirez-ed6qv its not just them though other series like how not to summon a demon lord and quincential quintuplets are also victims to this (I know quints isn't an isekai I just was using it as an example) and yes while some say smartphone is bad I love it but those are both opinions and I have no problem if someone doesn't like a series I MEAN ITS THE WHOLE POINT OF THESE VIDEO TYPES the issuer I have is people judge these series a lot of the time BEFORE reading it so bad adaptations become what they're known for not the original material
TheRevoG that may be true for some of those, though I would like to say that the quints adaptation wasn’t so bad. The weakest point was the fluctuating animation quality. How to summon a demon lord was bad in my opinion, plot wise and otherwise.
The fact that this is 45 minutes proves that they're bringing out the big guns.
I hadn't noticed 45 minutes have passed... o-o
The fact that I thought this was a 20 minute video proves I have too much time on my hands
@@justaneko3304 for me time passes oddly... Sometimes slow sometimes fast, I'm half way through and thought it was only 5 minutes in.
What a incredible record to see a anime man video bypass around the 15 to 20 minute mark
They're reaching DEEP, with stuff like Inuyasha and Spirited Away!
The one rating that I have to disagree with the most is for Grimgar. I enjoyed that one even though it was on the slower side. It's a solid C-tier for me personally.
It's the only one that plays on a reverse power fantasy. It's one of my favorites
The deciding factor for most is probably whether you have the patience for slow burners or if you're a DnD fan
Joey: Here's the ultimate isekai tier list!
Digimon: Am I a joke to you?
Now that you mentioned it, the original Digimon Adventure really is an isekai !
been claiming digimon is best isekai made to date. Was looking for this comment so fast.
@@lovepoem7753 I read it, my honest opinion: the character progression is cool, story has an end game which is great, but as an isekai it lacks adventure. It's more of a hack n slash action anime rather than an isekai, dungeons are pretty lame isekai consept, and some of the side characters are pretty dull.
I love the manga and keeps a bm for it's update, but I don't read it as an isekai but an action manhua.
@@jonathantkyong8157 The series came from a light novel where u kinda used ur imagination for the characters, so maybe thats why the characters are kinda dull.
@@sanddristini6555 I see. Though I heard from someone the manhua stays pretty faithful to the ln, was it not the case ?
Joey: Didnt put No Game No Life as S Tier
Aki: Were breaking up now
Yeah man, I expected an A tier at least.
@king emfj3201, you really sat there and fell for it. Smh.
king emfj3201 this is why you watch the video before commenting, so you don’t get trolled
But they are correct though.
I didn't see them saying that it isn't entertaining,it's really more about what happens in the anime story.
Like,12/13 episodes are really not enough to build the plot that well.
I say that as an absolute fan of NGNL btw.
@Maurice Johnson
I do agree if we are talking about it as an isekai.But I won't say for the anime alone which is what they are ranking too.
Re:Zero the anime is definitely fantastic but it just misses a single point in that it does not have a very well established main plotline.
(yeah,I know that it gets really epic later on and the plot becomes a lot more clear.)
When Gigguk starts talking about Alicization you can see the pain in Joey's eyes
I just want to find this comment. Thanks Bro!
it is not that bad, but wouldnt recommend to the anime man definetely
Random Rio I completely agree with everything Joey said, but he didn’t watch Alicization. It’s honestly pretty well done. I would put Alicization at A-B tier, and the other seasons at C
@@donovankhorashadi1758 alfheim at F, the others at C
first half of sao s1 and alicization were my favorites of the series, the rest sucked imo
Man, I understand about Grimgar but it hurts to see in F tier so much. I honestly gave it a 9 out of 10 because of how in love with the characters, storyline, world and art style I was but I definitely do see the issues with how the story was laid out and shown to us. The main thing that kept me going was seeing them having to come to turns with killing a goblin and how hard it was because no one was really putting their all into their attacks. It just captured me at that point and I wanted to see their evolution in that world. Imagine how popular it could have been if it had just been a little bit different. And also, it feels like way too much went into the music and how they had to show it off every other episode by just taking up time.
Oh dont feel bad man, its literally your opinion and if you like it, thats all that matters!
"Hey everyone this is the Anime man and I'm here with THE ISEKAI MAN"
Shows Gigguk
Great intro
a few seasons ago he would be more properly addressed as the "little sister man"

@@yutoharada7568 I second this
Shonen will be dope
He should make his other anime tier list like this.... If he have someone to discuss his tier list with, that's will make his videos better...
@@usakenvi you dont need all of them, like there's a lot more isekai's than there are in this video, just include the important ones...
After finished Re:zero ss2, I can say wholeheartedly that it deserves S tier
Best isekai frfr
They agree now
It’s not for me I’d give it 6/10
I couldn't get past episode 2 of that anime tbh. Fell asleep 4 separate times lol.

CONCLUSION:
*LAW IS BLIND*
LMAO
This whole thing lost it´s meaning when they put Grimgar in F-Tier. I mean Gigguk talked about it in one of his "best anime fights" videos (if I am not confusing the videos with another youtuber right now), so how can it be worse than Arifutereuatetera or however you spell the bullshit I am not going to waste more memory on.
I mean it´s not S-Tier, probably B or C like Critic-Gigguk would have said, but putting it in F-Tier is just plain bait.
@@SangerZonvolt the animation of grimgar may have been good, but the story was frankly very very boring, arifureta was the opposite, trash animation but okay-ish story (from and entertainment stand point), seeing the MC edginess was at very least entertaining to watch (the only bad things where when they showed his classmates pov, which nobody cared about), it really comes to good animation but stupidly boring story and bad cgi but edgy MC that keeps you hooked on his edginess
@@SangerZonvolt they were not only judging the anime based on how well it was animated. They were also judging based on other factors such as plot.
@@colorx6030
But the fight was good not only because of the animation, but because of the emotional impact, the weight and the choreografy. And it was just one point. The series was kinda slow at points, but it kept you on edge because the world and the consequences felt realistic (eealistic within their own fantasy rules, maybe genuine is the better word). Quite frankly I couldnt finish Arifuertas first episode because of how borderline retarted it seemed. For me it seemed like the very worst kind of edgy. The one where everyone acts like a cartoon villain because they were written by a 5 year old. That one Goblin they killed in the first fight of Grimgar had a more reasonable developed feel to him than any of the protagonists in Arifuerta.
"Motoyasu and Myne are just Team Rocket" is the best thing to come out of this vid
The whole video is gold
Who is myne i only know bitch
@MMD R18 Sexy Girls I mean, i know a lot has made that association but i can never relate to that since to me, they're technically historical figures of the same world with absolutely no isekai trope to be found.

My reasoning for keep watching any trashy shows.

That's true tho
Shit you right
Still waiting for season 2
Yeah! Drifters is fricken lit!
why did I read that in Gigguks voice

Damn, y’all talking about isekai but left out Narnia, Spy Kids 3D: Game Over, and Jumanji 2
I mean those are the pioneers.
Modern Day Classics
underrated comment
And Harry Potter.
@@MazorKuziaki Harry Potter isn't an isekai...
let's be honest the first 2 episodes of sao were godly, and then "Everything changed when the fire nation attacked"
probably because they were written after the rest of the aincrad arc
i thought that sao will be one of those long ass animes with 200 episodes of mc beating all of the floors and shit and then the fire nation attacked
True true
Season 3 was the best in my opinion
I think first 12 were also good
But it became trashy afterwards
I would have loved to see Magic Knight Rayearth on this list. Solid as an Isekai AND Magical Girl anime? Heck yes. Also it actually worked in the concept of staying in the new world.
I have seen so much but you can never see it all. Going to check it out, thanks!
I swear if gigguk was the only one rating this he'll put slime isekai, no game no life, overlord, shieldhero, and tanya all in the s tier no doubt
And he'd be damn right
I would put slime and no game no life in S tier
Slime grows a lot. NGNL had a great movie. Overlord easily has the best world building (it's pretty much DnD). Shield Hero is... alright? Tanya is great, and has a fantastic movie.
He said that he didn't like NGNL enough to put it in S
I mean I'm not a huge fan of shield hero, but I can appreciate how they take the story seriously.
Me: I like this anime
Joey: THIS ANIME IS TRASH
Me: Oh yeah
Joey has shit taste don't worry
@@cazwydrzynski3873 They both have
@@cazwydrzynski3873 everyone had different taste, after you watch a lot of anime and read a lot of manga then you will had different thinking when you rewatching an anime
tbh we all like anime that are the absolute trash, the lowest shit of the lowest in terms of characters, storywriting, setting, etc. we know that but we still enjoy them. Like Arifureta. Trash show big time, but burn me alive if I don't tell you I really liked it and had a blast watching it. WE KNOW OUR SHOWS ARE TRASH BUT SO ARE WE SO WE DON'T CARE!
@@mundanedew i was just thinking that some of the shows i noticed growing up wernt that good either. yugioh is a good example, it did have lines that just were so dumb even kid me understood... But it was still fun!! i remember seeing the "MMMOONNNSTTEEER CARDDDDDDOOO" scene for the first time which is legendary haha.
This video is basically:
*opinion
"Yeah yeah"
"Yeah"
Bruh and have you seen how Joey gets pushed around by gigguk
Nah more so they speak the truth
hitohito tadano, not really, they're trash. After all they think Devil is a part-timer is better than Arifureta, and I've seen both, and honestly, neither are that good, and so far as I know most of these so called Isekai are shit. But let's be frank most of these shows Joey and Gigguk dropped after the pilot ep... so their take is just a shitpost to get people to watch the video and then get angry at it and write stuff in the comments so that it gets recommend to more people...
@@livedandletdie The irony
@@lefrance6414 haha yeah.. It's beautiful isn't it.
The manga for saga of tanya the evil had a part where he spent his entire childhood studying rather than hanging out with friends which explained his vast sum of knowledge.
he also went to military school at the start of his military carreer and after getting promoted in the rhine front which also explains a lot
in the LN it's explained that he just liked to read a lot of economy, psychology and history books. and it fits well with the fact he's not very knowledgeable about physics, engineering or chemistry so he can't really give advice to the isekai world's scientists beyond abstract concepts.
Isekai will never get a film
Konosuba movie: let me introduce myself
I mean, films are the easy way to optimize their budget. People have to pay to watch it instead of just buying merch and recordings for TV series.
Ordinal Scale?
well.... u forget No Game No Life Zero
Tanya says hi
ArminasGondolin Ordinal scale took place almost entirely in the real world (except for the final fight).
Fun fact: 60% of these isekai's are 90% fanservice
So, 54% isekai are fanservice
NoLife-Chan someone failed math..
NoLife-Chan Multiplying them together doesn’t make any sense
If 60 percent of the isekai are 90 percent t fanservice then 90 percent of that 60 percent of those isekais jn general are fanservice right?
And if multiplying by a decimal Is division then it should be.... nevermind I see my mistake
Gigguk's rule will stick by me till the very end
"If she is not blood related'
'She is free to be dated'
"Local Welsh man arrested for having relations with a prepubescent sheep!"

I personally ADORE overlord. I feel like the concept of the main cast being the bad guys is such a breath of fresh air compared to the constant wave of "I WAS A NORMAL OTAKU AND NOW I GOTTA SAVE THE WORLD...OH WOAH THERE ARE A TON OF BABES I DON'T KNOW SLOBBERING OVER MY OP CHEAT SKILLS".
Like I know that overlord has a bit of the tons of babes factor but I like the fact that it's balanced out by Ainz's "they're like my friends' children" vibe towards them.
And the OP's and ED's are fire
You have my respect.
At least you acknowledge that Overlord has that same factor too.
I can respect that for not double standard.
@@TheOverlordEND If there's one thing I hate in my animoos is when there are a ton of babes all in love with the main dude for no reason. Maybe it's because I've gotten older (and become a shoujo romance junkie)
@@bellystraw My most hated trope in Isekai when the side character is kissing the MC ass.
In Overlord I can tolerate because the character are program or at least that's how I see it.
Another example is Tensura, getting off-topic as an example. How every single monster that met Rimuru and joined him is worshipping and hyping him essentially kissing his ass.
Even if they did it on their own accord it still feels cringe to me.
Lol I misread this at first as babies, and had the thought, why isn't there a anime with an OP baby that does OP stuff as a baby

It's crazy cause I feel Alicization is better than the aincrad arc, it's super good
Mister same
Actually totally disagree and think both seasons of alicozation are the worst season. I just can't care about these poorly developed AIs, they have no goals dreams or humor. Only the first half of s1 and first half of s2 are good imo
Batman The World's Greatest Detective I mean using that logic you could say the same about the GGO season. Didn't have to care about those ppl at all. Alicization established a new world with it's own history and lore quite well imo. And humor isn't need to make a series good, not comparing but look at berserk. Honestly Alicization could be a stand alone show
And best girl Alice is there, bois. Her being the highlight of Alicization S2 and doing a great job at it made up 80% of my enjoyment of the show.
I know it's too late to comment this, but I felt like expressing my fear and despair when seeing the possibility of them placing the Smartphone Isekai above Grimgar. My heart nearly stopped.

The rising of the shield hero: Everyone sucks so it's not that good
Konosuba: everyone sucks so much that it's perfect
What? No, they are parodies of the archetypes. That's why they are good. The show doesn't take itself seriously, it is a comedy. Whether you find them funny is up to you, but shield hero acts to be a serious show, so when Filo ends up nearly kicking his crotch for the 100th time, it ruins that kind of serious tone, and the actual weight of carrying the entire world on Naofumi's shoulders.
@@florelessproudmoore3994 it doesn't feel like a pyric victory, which the show was originally going for, along with the manga and anime.
@@raawesome3851 I honestly hate shield hero, making just garbage antagonists for cheap gratification got very annoying. And all of the Naofumi's cleverness went into the trash with his shield's "demon form".
@@FullyMartin yeah, I agree. The sad thing is, I think they could have taken the antagonists in a much better way, having Myne say what she actually feels about the shield hero divorced from his "rape" of her. This is how the execution, in my opinion, should have gone: When they were about to be executed, she starts sprouting nonsense, until the end, where she looks Naofumi in the eyes with eyes of hatred, despite Naofumi not doing anything to her. Then, the king would close his eyes, disappointed that he failed to raise her correctly, and sees how his greed for vengeance got the better of him. Naofumi would then come down, yelling at the king, kicking him, saying that he should not just live for the country's success, but also it's failures. The king refuses to open his eyes, still. Then, Naofumi tells the executioners to release them, citing that a death would be too merciful for trash and bitches like them, which is how he got the idea for trash and bitch. The king, now with his name gone, looks up with not anger, but guilt, as if he brought it onto himself, unlike Malty, who is angry at her father for not speaking out.
Yea, kinda crazy. I love shield hero. I like how so far there's no stupid love story, yet. I like how the "Bad Guys" aren't bad guys in their perspective. I like how everyone in Naofumi's group is useful.
Gigguk & The Anime Man: *Puts Re:Zero in A-tier*
Mothers Basement: "So you have chosen death."
Well, they say it will get better.
They put Inuyasha low and it seems they didn't watch the end of the show. WTF
Re:Zero for me is one of my all time favorites. For me personally only Re:Zero and Konosuba deserve S-tier. I loved Log Horizon but that is incomparably below those 2 so I'd put that in A-tier.
I guess that speaks to the kind of person I am though... because Kazuma and Natsuki (and Kyon from Haruhi) are my favourite MC's of all time and they're all pretty similarly sarcastic. :)
@@ayporos Log Horizon is ranked higher based on the fact of how brilliant it's written and how broad the things that had been explored, more than Re zero can be. That said, they do have one season advantage over Re zero, and that there's season 3 coming up, but having reading a bit after season 1 ended, Season 2 of Re Zero will definitely makes its way into the S tier, but as thing is now, season 1 doesn't make it as good as Log Horizon. Also, people loves Re Zero more becuz of the charm that the show gives, which Log Horizon is not focused on, thus people doesn't as much enjoys it. But on an analytical level, Log Horizon is a better show.
@@lokecy2216 I agree that Log Horizon is more analytical and all that, but that's not what does it for me. While the premise and story of Re:Zero might be simpler and less complex it is more meaningful to me because the premise is just amazing.
Log Horizon is 'merely' a smart guy thrown into a game world and then dealing with that game world.. Re:Zero is an emotional thriller that really hits you at the core of your being.
There's a reason Beethoven is considered a genius and his music is still remembered, played and loved right now.. Not because it was more complex than the music of other composers, but EXACTLY because it focused more on what really mattered and wasn't bloated with extra fat.
A good story (based on the hero's journey) involves overcoming not only external obstacles but also internal. Natsuki has to deal with this whereas the MC from Log Horizon really doesn't.. Natsuki is a true hero, the MC from Log Horizon (I forgot his name sorry) never really has to overcome any hardship so the story is less meaningful.
I'd say my favorite isekai of all time, even more so than any isekai nowadays, would have to be The Twelve Kingdoms, that series was amazing~ My dad usually was a fan of Fushigi yugi and it was always fun to compare the two. It was him with his Fushigi yugi and me with my Twelve Kingdoms~

Even as a girl, the devil is a part-timer was one of the most enjoyable animes besides Gintama. I really liked it.
Honestly the only problem with part timer is that it ends. I really would have put it in s-tier honestly.
Do you find fan service weird?
Meh. It is what it is.
To me it doesn't matter what gender you are, I'm a girl too and watched it while I recovered from surgery so it has a unique soft spot with me as well as my little witch academia
Kyashi Tsuki haha, it’s still good even if there is fan service, right? It’s a great one.
Grimgar was fantastic! wtf?
It isn't the most hype thing or the most over the top, but it has the most charm.
It has slow moments where they are chilling making breakfast in the morning before goblin hunting. They take a day off and go do their hobbies, like Ranta fishing while watching Yume rock climbing in the distance.
It has realistic moments where they pool money to buy their warrior a helmet so he can tank better.
It's more of a fantasy slice of life than a full blown epic adventure.
100% agree with you have to say it was the best anime i ever watched!
Agreed, I generally dislike isekai a lot but grimgar was one of the only ones I was able to finish
i'm very late to this, but the thing is, they're mainly rating them as per how good of an isekai it is, and even though i think grimgar shud have been rated a bit higher, i see why they rated it there. it feels quite different from an isekai. but as an anime in general it's rlly good.
It's actually a more accurate presentation of an isekai. People would actually freak out and react the way the characters in grimgar do if they were to get isekaied to a world full of monsters.
Me: I don't like isekais
Also me: *clicks immediately on an isekai video*
Fuck same
Lol that guilty pleasure
Mauricio Rios I mainly clicked over the fact that he brought Gigguk for this 😂😂

SAO is honestly one of the best Anime representations of wasted potential.

Swap Grimgar to B and Slime to F.
Slime is one of the most uninspired generic anime I've seen, meanwhile Grimgar is, while a slow burn, excellent at everything it does.
In general finding anime that don't instantly devolve into shouting match "over 9000" power battles is extremely rare, Grimgar is exceptional.

When Isekai Quartet gets rated higher than most of the actual isekai...
Speaking of Isekai Quartet, isn't it like 2 to 5 mins per episode? How does Joey not have time to watch it when it's too short?
Its because Isekai Quartet is pure comedy, it hits exactly what it aims for.
its the same as konosuba,they know how to make a comedy,and they commit and not pretending to make it some serious deep shit,thats why is good.
Like others said, the show describes itself very clearly. "A comedy crossover show focused on the cast of ReZero, Overlord, Tanya, and Konosuba being isekai'd to a school setting" and the show delivers exactly that. Even with the addition of Shield Hero, they still advertised it with the same 4 franchises and, in the second season of the show, it is exactly that.
they reduced the animation budget to minimum, and put all the efforts on writing, voice acting, and music
Me: that's pretty decen--
Gigguk & the anime man: its bad
Me: its bad

Joey and Gigguk's average: mid E and D tier
Their average is C tier
@@raawesome3851 just joey
Gigguk loves his isekai
@@WeebHavenArkttch fair enough
joshua chin how is B tier considered the average exactly? C is widely considered the score you give to something considered average let alone the usual shit that spills from the bowels of the isekai genre.
If you think B is average you're pretty generous with your ratings..
Now you need to collab with Nux Taku and make a gentai tier list.

Well, probably Gigguk was kicked out of house so Anime Man decided to make more views xD
I love how, When you came to Konosuba both of you just placed it in S tier and the reason was "It's konosuba."
Now that this is the definition of Perfect.
Konosuba is mildly funny and it has no plot but is somehow put above re zero
@@onagain2796 That is due to the difference in taste
Like by saying RE ZERO IS BETTER THAN KONOSUBA I have established this opinion about you that you like Dark fantasy more than Comedy
hafsa re zero is some straight up psychological thriller
Konosuba is boring tbh, I don’t find Japanese comedy funny so it’s a tough watch for me.
@@WookieWarriorz true. for anyone who's like some action, Konosuba is like "lullaby"
@@WookieWarriorz Konosuba is shit. Wasted 40 mins of my life trying to watch that cringefest of a show.
Personally, I would rank Inuyasha a lot higher. It actually had a PLOT (unlike many of the animes on this list). There were a number of filler episodes, but in comparison to the other animes released at that time, its not even noticeable.
I guess some ranks made for fun
it not far away from hack so
In my heart, Inuyasha is an S, but in reality, it would at least be a B tier

@@ruud9761 Rewatch the show, you really need it.
@@ruud9761 Mate, I've even known cases of people who hated it the first time they watched the program, but then they rewatched it and loved it. It's just a simple advice.
@@ruud9761 the female characters in Re:Zero are dope af tho
@@ruud9761 definitely respect your opinion on it tho. Real complaints not just hate.
about Tanya the evil, many people don't really understand the point of it, Tanya isn't getting stronger to face Being x, she's trying her best to stay out of combat and get a nice and peaceful life at the rear, as the reason Being x sent her there was to make her believe in god, she hadn't had a reason to believe in god before as modern medicine and lack of wars had really made praying irrelevant. so in her new world Tanya is determined to get a high-ranking position at the rear in the hopes of not risking her life as being x had told her that she wont be reincarnated again. so being out of trouble and having no reason to pray for god, this became a huge middle finger to being x, and the series turns into a game between Tanya and Being x, Tanya gets a rear position, in turn Being x makes it so Tanya is sent into war again (notably the Deus vult writings on her reports and alike).
Long story short, tanya is Yoshikage Kira
yeah Youjo Senki is S tier for me personally but I understand people who don't like it since it's a bit if an acquired taste
@@Ai-wm7jy the manga is S tier.. anime..as much as some want to denied or defend it.. they really butchered the hell out of the chara design even tho some make sense of the reasoning behind it and it takes quite while to get used to it... the manga art is just literally god tier to compared to

To Overlord: There is extremly good stuff in the story that happens after the end of season 3, at that point most of the nations were established and the show took in my eyes kind of a game of thrones twist but in the persective of tagariens at their peek...
To be fair, they could of done a better job at adapting the light novel. But I don’t think that Devil is a Part Timer should get placed higher than overlord though
@Matthew Wagenhoffer oh god, don’t remind me of the Massacre of the Katze Plain. The cgi were so bad
@@bennyni9361 not in any alternative universe should that be possible.
The Holy Kingdom and ruined country arcs are my favourite arcs, but I feel like even for the arcs in seasons 1-3, the LN is still way ahead of the anime cause it has so much details and the character’s motives and feelings are explained a lot better with their inner thoughts. Also it has more of best boi Demiurge and his antics
This is it guys, Anitube has peaked. It's all downhill from here
So what about when pewds came on the show?
Lol😂
Joey: *says overlord was maybe the first to have an antagonist as the protagonist*
Also Joey: *Reviewed Devil is a Part-timer not 20 minutes ago*
difference being, in 'DIAPT' he 'sheds' his evil persona and integrates himself into society and is helpful to those around him, in overlord, ainz ooal gown is entirely 'evil' and is merely feigning integration in order to gather intel on the world he is in, in order to make world domination easier for himself, so in this regard he is truly an antagonist playing a protagonist for the sake of this context.
Rogoth01 The Master Wizard that's a fair point, in DIAPT the so called "antagonist" certainly does take on a more protagonistic role than Ains in Overlord
dude they have a big difference
part time didnt explore his antagonist personality where in overlord he is an antagonist-ish but he does what a bad guy does.
the difference was Sadao wasn't doing "antagonistic stuff" he was just a Devil king in his original world, while Ainz grows colder and colder towards humans, and mercy from his POV is getting killed without pain/agony.
guys, the first reply literally said everything you guys did
Durring arifureta: "if you read the manga itd be at least a c tier"

I watched it not long after it finished airing originally and absolutely loved it. Loved the story, loved the characters, loved the soundtrack. It was amazing and seriously underrated.
