You should definitely watch Overlord. I'm not going to spoil too much, since you already kind of grasped the point of the series, albeit with the wrong characters, but this series is basically the concept of "What if the villain was the main character". And it excells at that.
I really like that concept! Has a lot of potential for exploring issues with morality and what a villain would and wouldn't be willing to do! Reminds me of when I played an evil DND campaign and I didn't want to do evil things but my character would of - it's a real moral dilemma haha! Thanks for watching!!
she might regret watching it tho. the story can be depressing in some parts. for me thats what makes it great.
@@georgieegamesI agree with the OG come t same feelings
@@georgieegames If you could post your reaction to the channel it would be awesome!
@@georgieegames if you like the concept of this then u should also watch “Tensura” or That time I got reincarnated as a slime
Overlord is actually based on a series of light novels, and all of the pictures in the endings are drawn by the illustrator of those light novels! That is why they look so good, it is quite literally the style of the novels themselves!
not a bad thing that So-Bin is an amazing artist then :)
@@Moribax85 he is legend among the illustration artist community
6:14 "I think this character might be a little bit unhinged"
Oh boy, you can say that alright
The reason why is extra hilarious.
What do you mean~Su? Lol
Edit, if you know you know. Lupusregina best girl js
"Secretly unhinged" 🤣🤣🤣 I dont think the show is trying to keep it a secret
Overlord is one of my favourite series due to the world building and creativity from the writer. Side characters in this anime/novel/manga (the series started out as a Web Novel, then a Light Novel, got adapted into Anime that spans 4 seasons and a manga series) are fleshed out very well (well, most of them) and have their own spotlights (not having to rely on the MC to have screen time). It got inspirations from D&D (as the author proclaimed and you'd see the similarities in how the power system works), and is quite unique due to the MC being straight up "villains" to every other characters. Despite some terrible CGIs and animations (MadHouse least favorite child, unlike Frieren), it's still worth a watch and totally would see your video reactions.
"They look happy maybe there not evil"
Oh dear Lord Ainz, no one tell her! 😂😂😂😂😂
Well, Ainz is not really evil though, if anything, he's more neutral, it's mainly Demi and his direct followers and the worst 5 that are evil. The others won't bother with you if you don't annoy them.
One of my fave animes. It really explores the concept of "what actually is evil?" Ainz has a quote basically saying that what wouldn't you do to bring happiness and prosperity to your own people? In history many leaders have killed and tortured in order to bring prosperity to their own people.. it's definitely a morally Gray show
The illustrations for the endings are made by the actual illustrator of the light novels, So-bin.
The openings and ending are either made by OxT or Myth&Roid except for ED4 that is sung by Mayu Maeshima. She was the original vocalist of Myth&Roid before she left to pursue a solo career and was the singer for ED1, the current vocalist is KIHOW who sang ED2 and OP3. And both of those bands have the same composer and guitarist, Tom-H@ck.
Overlord is one of those series where once you get into the rabbit hole that is its story, lore and characters you just can't get enough.
The anime does a good job covering the story, but there is so much info that is cut for the sake of brevity that the Light Novels are 100% the best way to experience it.
That being said tho, the anime is still worth a watch and both the opening and ending songs are *bangers*
Word of warning tho, the best way I can describe this series is as a "morbid comedy"
It isn't afraid to go *really dark and serious* , while also being a spoof of the isekai genre.
It puts a godly amount of effort into its world, just for the main characters to completely break it and watch as the chaos ensues lol
Its the *definition* of watching a D&D campaign unfold as a party of murderhobos stumble their way through the DM's carefully laid plans. (Which is extra fitting since the author based the story off the various D&D campaigns he never got to play)
This is the best explanation of this series I have ever seen
May I steal this to use to help others understand???

@@kdfirehero6922go ahead, its a comment on the internet so its free real estate anyway XD
YOUR MAJESTY IS JUSTICE AND WEAKNESS IS A SIN
I'd define it more as a new DM running an emerging campaing with newbie players letting the one guy on his friend group who's a dedicated D&D player transpose his fully leveled setting into his new world and just watching the chaos unfold as all his carefully laid plans and lore get stumbled over by an OP veteran gamer and the bumbling of his newbie players playing with fully leveled OP characters. The veteran is playing Demiurge, if there was some doubt.

It's definitely a great series! I'd describe it as a villain vs villain series.
with tons of innocents needlessly dying in the crossfire. i´m not sure why but the main character comes of as desultory to me. Like he doesn´t know if he even wants to be evil but just is because it´s convenient in the moment and he is afraid to be exposed as a fake or something. This makes him the weakest part of the show in my eyes.
@@Tyarrk Well, his racial trait means his empathy went out the window. His goal is to spread his (fake) name to every corner of the world, in order to draw out any who recognize it for what it is. World Domination just so happens to be the fastest direct way of achieving that.
Thing is, the show wouldn't work without Ainz. The theme at the center of it is loneliness. Ainz is introduced as the last man standing of his group of friends, holding out hope that they might return. He's surrounded by people with undying loyalty, love and admiration for what he appears to be but not for who he is. He cares for them, but more like how one cares for the treasures of their dead relatives. He doesn't relate to them.
For that matter, he remembers his friends more fondly and in an idealized way than what they actually were. Constantly at each other's throats. The reason Ainz was made leader in the first place is because they were all friends with him but not with each other, so he was put in charge in order to mediate, delegate and direct.
And the ultmate irony is that his quest is doomed from the start. There are no players left in that world, they all died. And they appeared periodically every few hundred years, but with the game he came from shut down, it doesn't seem likely any more will come. And on the off chance there ARE still some left, his subordinates have planned in secret to kill them before they can make contact.
When the second season came, I wondered why people liked this anime, so I started to watch the first season and it became one of my top anime lists, there are four seasons so far but season 5 will come the next year, but if I am wrong for what I hear about that it's going to a movie of it, but I hope that is a whole season of it.
It will not be a season, it will be a movie, because it actually takes place between season 3 and season 4, and the content is way too graphical for tv, we're talking AoT looks like a kindergarden play in comparison.
Correction to what Mori said.
The film takes place between the events of Ep7 and 8 of S4.
It was pretty noticeable when goin from 7 to 8 tht it felt like there was a time skip and so much things have happened.
Confused me into seeing if the site incorrectly titled the ep. lol
@@Daigon95 you're completely right, I forgot that season 4 starts with the Empire's vassalage and Ainz's trip to the dwarves.
@@Moribax85 that means we get to see guts and blood splattered everywhere?
@@motafu1 if they stick to what's written, yes, pretty much, along with a lot of other things.
There is no good or evil in this anime, just a lot and I mean a lot of various shades of grey.
Side note: The source material for this is actually a light novel and all of the ED Art is done by the actual novel's illustrator So-Bin.
Love a morally grey show/set of characters!! Also ohhhh that's interesting! The art is gorgeous will have to check out their stuff thanks!! 😁
agreed but that grey gets pretty close to black at times
Nah there is evil. But for spoilers sake, it's prob not worth going into detail.
No way. GG is definitely the most important antagonist here. After horseradish knows how many children are allowed to be skinned and enslaved (in the form of degradation of the mind to pigs in fact) I can't call them gray. They're blacker than black, I'd say.
the anime is adapted from a series of light novels which are still ongoing, the LN use the ending style of art in the books, which is why its emphasized in the endings
I really like the opening and ending of Overlord, they are something special about this, i don't know how to express but it's really unique
Having 2 of the best Artists in the anime scene making banger after banger definitely helps. I mean the entire series is stacked with talent.
Music - Goated
Studio - Goated
LN Artist - Goated
Author - Goated
@@xArt_16 Studio not so goated, but if they brought some people that are doing Frieren currently to a new season of Overlord, it would be dope. But you can't just pretend that seasons 3 and 4 didn't had terrible animation at some points.
Was fun to watch you speculate.
And the "everyone is morally gray" is pretty much spot on. There are plain good people in the show but like you said living in that world is pretty unforgiving.
Just a heads up if you intend to watch: Don't get too attached to anyone outside of the MC's group.
LMAOO ur description of there relationships is sooo on point haha with just watching an ending, awesome reaction 😂
You definitely need to watch it. As reaction would be best😅.
Endings` art have been drawn by original ranobe`s artist.
One of the best anime franchises yet, in my opinion👌. 4th season is the best
Yes please check it out. Lol for a second there I was so excited because I thought you were reacting to the first 4 episodes. Def a fun reaction to the openings and endings.
Hollow Hunger OP for overlord is indeed the best.
such a BOP have been listening to all these songs again today, the full versions are SO GOOD!
You made some pretty good deductions about what the series is about and the overall vibe. I know you said you would only have time to watch this on your own and not for reactions, but i genuinely think overlord is one of those series where you get so much more out of it from watching it with the community. The overlord community for reactors is honestly really great and gives a lot of insight into things that get more in-depth explanations in the source material, and people are very good about not spoiling.
My favourite anime of the decade 😊
Oooo that's HIGH praise I mean NGL I am kinda down for watching this it looks dope 🤣
Hopefully you can bear with bad CGI and enjoy it 😅
@@dragonboy6547 depends on the definition of bad haha a lot of my fave animes are old school so if it's more "dated" compared to stuff nowadays imma be fine 😁✌️
Definitely worth a reaction of the anime,
Or an off-camera listen to the Light Novel audiobooks
This anime is amazing for people who want more of a story than most fantasy/monster animes provide. The story is very deep and takes its time but is extremely rewarding the more you invest yourself into it. One of my all time favorite animes and I can definitely recommend it
It's a very slow start takes about 3 or 4 episodes to pull people in. It's also based on Novels so they skip over a ton of content. So you will have fans write entire paragraphs explaining hard to detect scenes, where things are hidden or things happened between events.
I'm just happy to see someone genuinely loving So-bin's arts. I'm going to subscribe when you start watching this series 😂
OverLord op 1 is still soo good!
really? that’s easily the weakest opening
I really would like to recommend Overlord because it maybe only 1 anime i actually like to go back to and watch in again and again and again. Really good in most aspects and that why it my favorite. Might sound strange but maybe one of few anime that try to be cruel and not do it through mindless slaughter.Also it might be only in my opinion but it do good work in showing how medival been back then not that romantic like every movie or so do it look like.
An amazing anime. And if you're someone that likes to get into the lore and secrets of a world, you will love this for sure.
Firstly thank you for great contents i love to see you reaction ,secondly mc is the villian but a reasonable one. I highly recommand to watch the show
Haha yw it was requested but was an absolute PLEASURE as I now have a bunch of new bops to listen to haha it has really intrigued me imma add it to my list to check it it looks great
As enough people have probably told you, highly recommend watching the series.
Also, the art you see on all the endings were made by the actual illustrator for the visual novel. The person's name is So-bin. Definite masterpiece.
Never clicked so fast on one of your videos in my life. Love this anime!
After watching your reaction and guesses, I have to say you're not right but you're also not wrong. The most spot on thing you got was about Albedo (the woman in the white dress) and her toxic obsession with Ainz (the MC).
But that is one thing I love about these openings and Endings. They give so very little away but still show SO much!
WAHOO!! thanks for watching!
I've heard that the author of the novel the anime is based on was a huge D&D player, but since their group had no time to play, he became a writer, and wrote the Overlord. I'm not quite sure if the story is real, tho.
It's true
It is real
"everyone is kind evil and moraly grey!" SHE JUST DISCOVERED REALITY!!!
Fave anime of all time can't wait for more. World building is fantastic so if you watch it really have to pay attention there are also some that only in the LN were described and not much on the anime but I'm sure they'll just say it in the comments for you. Really recommend it if you like dark fantasy ❤
What I love about the Ed’s in this show is that they point out to things that are incredibly painful for the Mc and albedo ( the demon girl that’s in love) but are never actually delt with in a healthy way .
Also hint heavily to other characters unhealthy tendencies. Like the princess' and the magic caster's with the mask for the second ED. I think the third foreshadowing is more subtle. Like when you see half characters and of course the last scene is more symbolic than literal shattering.
Nice vod and the reaction of it was interesting to hear from you that you can so much understand from what you're watching you closely spoilered your self 😂 just by hearing these openings/endings
Лично я считаю, что Оверлорд одно из единственных аниме, где все опенинги и эндинги шедевральны!
good reaction, it feels authentic 👍🏻
Your reaction was soo good, its so rare to see someone interested that much in a opening/ending video. Keep this up!
Also, watch the anime, its my favorite (my profile picture can tell that)
Video made me subscribe :) i love overlord :)
Surprised how much you guessed right! I love OP4 too!
Offtopic. There's a crossover comedy anime called Isekai Quartet which has chibified versions of characters from Overlord, KonoSuba, Re:Zero and Saga of Tanya the Evil going to school. Season 2 also had Shield Hero and Cautious Hero.
I love how you watched the endings right after their corresponding openings, instead of all openings then all endings. It feels out of order when reactors do that. You can really appreciate it better this way. You should definitely check out the series, love it even though its unhinged :)
In my opinion the opening animations are a little low-quality; but the opening and ending songs themselves are ABSOLUTE bangers. Some of my all time favorite anime songs. OxT and Myth and Roid are legends.
The animations aren't low quality, it's just that the new gen anime have set higher expectations on people. The animation of the openings are very fluid and well made, just not in the way the newer animes are done
@@VBandit47 There is no reused footage from the show in any of the opening.
Some of your guesses were right, others were close. Won't say which ones because it'd be better if you eventually watch it. At least I did enjoy it. I dropped S4 because of time issues, but now that you reminded me Overlord 's existence I'll defo binge it all from 1 to 4 xd
Same, gonna binge it hard-
Overlord I'd possibly my all time favourite anime. It's by no means perfect but the depth of the world building, the topics the light novel covers and some of the sheer brutality that happens from people who honestly deserve it and some that don't. Casualties of war or political games, the twisted reality the MC find himself in and how he adapts to his new situation is, for me at least, peak storytelling
Omg, it would be so hype if you reacted to Overlord. All the characters are awesome, world building and lore is so well presented
i really want to see your reactions to the anime itself, i feel like you are one of the very few people that pay attention during their reactions and you were really just calling out things that werent even said, you nailed it with this reactions
You grasped the vibe pretty well, I don't want to spoil anything cause I really recommend it, the world building is incredible.
The amount of things you got right with just a guess is fantastic!
Aw, you're gonna love this anime! Definitely one of the best and probably my favorite anime of all time!
Aw, I didn't expect you gonna react this
"the guy with the crown definitely eviil ! definitely evil !"
the guy with the crown : why i felt like i losing a lot of hair while trying to bring down that skeleton !?
Like you have proved in many videos you are very keen and have great intuition, you are very spot on in many of your guesses
Good predictions :)
The 3rd opening has an awesome English cover by Amalee, you should check it out. Sidenote, she also voiced the white lizard from season 2 in the english dub lol
You deserve a sub
Amalee does a great job translating the songs and the lyrics definitely set the tone
hope you love it if you watch, it was one of my fav shows growing up and I still rewatch it sometimes
it's a shame how much content is cut from the light novels lol, I really love the world that was built in it
Tbh I just watched your first reaction to the Jojo’s op and didn’t expect this when I went to your channel
I love the key blade in the background❤... U got that right feeling in 14:49😂, u rly need to watch this cuz its an incredible anime ngl
U gonna know what anime was my fav based on my pfp 😂
Theres a line of thinking that Evil is going against what a group believe is justice, so everyone sometime gona be evil.
ya the closing art work by So-bin the official artist of the novel volumes. he does great work and keep the same style , it fair solid and pretty.
also watch overlord it is great and should have a movie out to watch shortly subbed as well as season 5 hopefully soon.
You definitly need to watch this
You will absolutly love this
This can be taken as spoilers so I'll make space:
You can point at any character outside of the main cast and say "I like this character." And you will get giggles out of the whole community with the occasional "Do we tell her?" XD
Let's be real, a lot of us still like those characters, even if they meet a not so friendly demise. The characters are good characters, it's just that the universe is way dark, which is great.
The purple haired guy is honestly a character I think you'll REALLY like.
I don't know if you'll read this but I'd agree that all the songs are good, however I do have to say: as someone who's read and watched the series the endings are superior. Not only are the songs just as good but the art you seemed to like so much(I love his highly detailed work as well) are actual panels that the creator of Overlord made as commissions for his own story's animation. Like him telling the animators and watchers: this is my story, I am the artist here and I have the skill nessesary to continue it even after each episode.
His art style is beautiful and amazing. So is his show, no matter how dark it may be.
The Best Ways to describe this show:
Philosophy of the Damned, The Humor of the wicked, Love of the Damned, Absolute inferiority, The Fire of Humanity, The struggle for life and the Habits of the Depraved.
If you want the best example of what I mean, just look up Clementine's Death vs Ains.
I agree with you that each opening and ending song is awesonme. There are no other shows where i like every opening and ending.🤩
The singer in the last ending (No Mans Dawn) is the original singer for Myth and Roid. Another fun fact myth and roid means past and future, Roid is short for android.
The last ending really fits the main character.
He will destroy the world in a symphony of pain and suffering, if it means he gets to keep his family safe and the memories of those he lost intact.
2 quotes from Him in the 12th volume of the light novel:
“My only goal is for me and the children to live in happiness; that is all-and that is everything.”
“If I were weak I would lose everything too. That is why I can never stop seeking power. I have to remember that there must be someone out there as strong as me.”
When you said that Albedo (woman with black hair and horns) was thirsty, I immediately thought “Yeah, she’s thirsty. All seven oceans won’t cure her thirst.”
Your assumptions are kinda correct. Good job :)
This series, at least the light novel goes into far more depth, many of these characters that you saw are the leaders of groups, and nations, they may be ‘evil’ like you said but many of them are great rulers.
The gold hair guy (‘evil’ guy), is the ruler of an empire, and is an ‘tyrant’ but his nation is one of the best nations to live in, he slaughtered so many nobles but most of those nobles were corrupt, the common folk have better lives compared to the other nations.
Definitely worth the watch.you hit the mark by saying it's a fucked up world. The anime is based off a light novel, and there's so many scenes that aren't included in the anime because of how horrific they are. The studio that animates this still does a fantastic job adapting the horrifying parts that they can add into the show tho
I loved your reasonings and reactions, it was great. I loved the book!! Recommend reading the book rather than the anime, there is a lot of omission that is a little hard on and heavy on the visual which can and usually is easily missed.
Overlord is honestly a masterpiece, whether you do a full reaction to it, or watch it on your own time, just do yourself a favor and watch it
I like how she nailed Albedo's character
She's a virgin love freak of a succubus... The Irony of being the purest yet most down bad character in universe.
this is one of those shows that is as deep as you can see.... certainly closer to dark stories that will make you question few things :D the only thing is that the anime is a lot muted compared to the source so sometimes the scenes don't hit into the gut as much as they should. still it's amazing one to watch
This show is awesome, music, story, characters, everything is top notch imo ❤️
I'm not surprised that a lot of people are sleeping on this, because there is not a good way describe it to make it sound appealing. What I'm going to say is that this anime rewards attention to detail and asks you to be patient. It's not like a lot of the other anime where they lore-dump you in the first 3 episodes and pat you on the head for being a good-boi. With this one you have to come to terms with the fact you know even less than the MC does, and that never ever changes. But if you can make it to episode 9, you will want to watch the whole thing twice or even 3 times, I can promise you that much.
Oh! What a pleasant surprise! Overlord is a wonderful anime!
the show is not secretlly unhinged, its quite open about it. also yes, you should wach this anime.
Widely believed that the "Horned girl" Albedo, will actually be the literal death of everything the main character loves. "If im the only thing left of his precious guild then he'll have to love me" is kinda the mindset.
Additionally, Overlord is a relevant series to review as season 4 released fairly recently (for anime...at the end of '22) and there is a movie that is coming out soon (likely within the next calendar year). To be warned, in a very non-spoilery way, there are already several movies out, but those just summarise the actual episodes. The upcoming film will be covering material that doesn't show up in the anime episodes (and chronologically happens about halfway through season 4's timeline).
Am late here but definitely give it a watch. It starts off quite simple and gets more interesting and complex.
Interesting guessings，some of them are actually right though，not gonna tell which ones of them are right，but really impressive.
hehehehe yay 🤣 it's a really fun game trying to guess what a show is about just from the intro and outro lol it's even better when I watch the show and then it CLICKS and I'm like OH MY GOD 🤣 like with JoJo haha thanks for watching!
you were spot on with somethings but on others it needs some more context.
1st - on Albedo (black hair, horns, big boob demon lady) , you are correct. I wont spoil it though
2nd - you were correct on the isekai (guy dies and becomes this monster)
3rd - Whilst not everyone is evil, there are a number of just good characters, you were correct in that the main character isnt evil but most everyone else is (including his party). He also loses his humanity somewhat over time
4th - again spot on with the character deaths thing, there is a decent amount of character rotation within the show, both with recurring characters and one offs for the season
This is one of the few fantasy shows that puts in effort to describe its world and really explore what fantasy is and means.
Its also a power fantasy, but there is alllot going on in the foreground and background which if you arent paying attention to will slide right by you.
The endings are amazing and use the light novel illustrator So-Bin-sama, but that emotional state of the ED's helps ground those characters shown. It really ties in to their emotional side and how they view the main character, but you need to watch the show to understand this
I will now go and binge the series 😂😂😂😂
Love how you said a bunch of actually correct stuff about the show just by ops and ends. Btw, about the evil and good, actually the point is EVERYONE IS A PSYCHOPATH (ok, not everyone but most part lol). ALSO, you got the point perfectly on the perspective thing. This anime shows to you a super villain but by his perspective (where ofc, just like he see himself, you don't see him as an evil guy)
"What if all of them are villains" like 95% of the main cast are the most villainous and it makes total sense knowing why they are that way, they all reflect their creators
I remember seeing season 3 trailer and just started watching it from beginning, best decision of my life ngl
Do you have another channel where you watch anime episodes?
this make me want to re watch and read Overlord
How dare you call Lord Ainz the lord of calcium the skeleton man💀
Lord of calcium 😭 💀
i would definitly recommend to watch this show, it has a vast world and a lot of interesting and different characters.
That woman is the guardian of the underground labyrinth in VRMMORPG. She is a pseudo-character created by the main character MOMON (skeleton man), and she is programmed to be absolutely obedient to MOMON.
Bros reacting too all of my recent hyperfixations what a time to be alive
you missed out on the 1.5 op/ed, the op is a group of side characters singing one of the season one songs in character, the ed is Crazy Scary Holy Fantasy by Myth & Roid
She basically sense a lot of evil vibes in these openings and she aint technically wrong😂 The protagonist is not your typical goody two shoes but i wouldnt say his a total villain
He is tho, as his whole crew. Absolutely blackest black irredeemable evil. The whole series is basically let's give average redditor almost godlike powers and let's see how much zeroes there will be in the body count as he builds his totally just peaceful world, trust me, it's just temporary means to justify the end, whoopsie, another four zeroes random people dead. It will be worth it in the end, pinky promise.
Nice observations! you quite get the gist of the series. Also the ending arts were drawn by the original artist of the light novel, So-bin. I agree the art is very beautiful!
always love to see shows do villain protagonists well
Overlord is a great series, I highly recommend the light novels to read when you watch the series. I loved the anime, but it seriously glosses over important details that I would have felt lost from watching the anime alone. But currently this is the only anime to not only get me to buy a couple of the manga, but got me to buy the light novels.
Basic premise:
-
Ainz is an evil overlord who runs an edgy evil guild in an MMO that RPs as monsters. After the MMO goes offline, Ainz wakes up in a fantasy world where all his monster NPCs become sentient and he decides to use his skeleton wizard powers to take over the world! While at the end of the day Ainz is a good(ish) person, it's absolutely a series that basically follows the villains and it just kind-of runs with that premise.
Just be aware that things do get pretty messed up at points. These are the bad guys, and there are absolutely points where the show makes it very clear that they do some genuinely horrible things to people. So that's probably worth keeping in mind going into things.
