Work details: – Overlord was based on a Light Novel written by Kugane Maruyama since the year 2012. The first season of the anime aired on July 7, 2015, and a manga was published in the year 2014.

Overlord reviews

Basically like the typical genre where the protagonist, with or without apparent reason, is sent to another world. In this case, the world to which momonga (main character, who later takes the guild's name as his) goes is totally unknown, but there are still several things that came with him to this world, such as the guild's NPCs. After several events, such as saving a village, gathering information, NPC mentally controlled and turning against the master, domination of a village by force, disguising himself as an adventurer to gather information and become famous, among many others, for sure this one anime is worth the rating it has.

This anime has its clichés, as an overpowered protagonist, transported to another world, and with a lot, but, a lot of luck. However, it also has its clichés, as is the case with the good protagonist, in which case the protagonist is extremely calculating and only thinks about what is good for him and his guild, and does not mind killing tens of thousands of people to this (those who read the light novel, will understand what I'm talking about). It is one of the few horror and comedy anime together. That's right, guts, blood, heads rolling, hearts crushed, all with some comedy, which in my opinion is the master's touch.

Just to finish this part, in this anime most of the characters are semi-human or humanoid, what does that mean? The protagonist is a skeleton mage of the highest class (Overlord), who has a humanoid demon and a succubus as his advisors, a vampire, two dark elves, an angel fetus, and a humanoid warrior ant-type insect to complete his team. of powerful high-ranking subordinates, out of all the other tens or hundreds of such existences spread around a gigantic type of construction that is buried in the ground to avoid attracting attention, which is known and baptized with the name of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Anyway you will only understand if you watch the anime or read the light novel

Spoilers from the third season of Overlord

Ps: the images below are merely illustrative and do not represent spoilers or recent events in the work.

Fortunately after more than 2 years of waiting and anguish, Overlord is back with a bang, so season 2 was released in early 2018, in the January season, and the third is being released after a break. At the time of writing this article, the anime is on its second episode. And the plot is developing to move towards the most magnificent arc of the light novel.

As many know, since the first season Gazef Stronoff, warrior-captain of the kingdom E-rantel, I have nurtured a solemn admiration is pure for our great ainz ooal gown (or for the intimate Ainz-sama), this man is none other than the greatest warrior in the entire kingdom (object of admiration of Brain Unglaus, a character that was introduced in the first season of the anime and developed a little more in the second, and will have a participation in the third.

That same one competed with Gazef for the current position, but lost by a little). I believe the fact that he will challenge Ainz-sama to a duel everyone knows, but the reason behind this, not even in the light novel was explicitly revealed.

All I can say is that this duel will mark a new era in this world.

But let's go by parts, before that we need to know the previous events. Currently the anime is showing a parallel story, this story is to show us how Ainz-sama's name, image, and existence itself is imprinted in the hearts and souls of the people he interacts with. Yes, the novel makes a point of showing over and over again his innate talent to be a leader, and especially to get admirers and strongly loyal subjects, to the point of killing and dying for the name of Ainz Ooal Gown. But that's not all, after the first part of the story is over, we'll come back with the main story and its current plot, which is the plan to take over the world, starting with showing themselves to the world.

It is at this point that the novel shows us the Bahamuth Empire, such a country is the land of the great Emperor Jircniv, the one who appeared at the last minute of the last episode of the second season lying on a kind of royal sofa together with an old man with an extremely long beard, such an old man who will be instrumental in Ainz-sama's plans.

Such a man is called Fluder Paradyne, this man's existence is as powerful and influential in the world as that of Gazef Stronoff. It may seem insignificant compared to Ainz-sama, but these two are people who, as the author likes to put, “tread into the realm of heroes”, if one were to compare Ainz, it would look more or less like an existence that “is in the midst of sovereign domination. from Gods".

Spoiler alert...

Ainz uses Fluder, I forgot to mention that despite being loyal to Emperor Jircniv, Fluder is obsessed with “discovering the depths of magic” so he is the most powerful mage in this world. This is clear before Ainz comes. It is for this reason that Fluder surrenders and literally kisses Ainz's feet, after he pays a visit. With Fluder influencing on the inside, just attract attention from the outside.

To that end, Ainz plots an excursion to the Tomb of Nazarick to be raided. This we can see in the opening of the third season, if you pay attention, you will see a team of people glued to each other, I think we see a big guy in armor, a blond guy, a woman with pointy ears and a little girl with a typical staff of wizards.

This invasion, will be the reason for Ainz to take satisfaction with the Empire, and thus force them to redeem themselves for their mistakes. Such a ruse is entirely down to luck and not even Ainz himself knew what was happening. As we already know Ainz has Demiurges, his strategist. But I cannot take away the merit of Ainz. For the deeds he performed without even knowing it were decisive for the smooth flow of the plans.

What does that mean? I'm gonna explain.

The dark elves were sent to the empire as messengers to inquire about Jircniv, or rather, subjects of the empire had tried to invade and steal the great Tomb of Nazarick. With that Jircniv says he will go to the Tomb to apologize in person. We also see this part in the opening.

The Blood Emperor, as Jircniv is known, in a chariot. After arriving at the destination. He is hit with a heavy blow, knowing he is nothing but a worm compared to Ainz-sama's domain. Of course it's not like someone saying this directly to him, it's Ainz's actions and own domain that has this aura, the aura of a home for gods.

Thanks to some measures, Jircniv doesn't even think about procrastinating towards Ainz. On the contrary, before Ainz-sama asked for anything Jircniv had already offered his full support. That was the size of the blow he took, just for entering the house, seeing some Tomb dwellers, and talking to Ainz himself.

I can't describe all the details, but I think you'll understand when you see in the anime what I'm talking about. Ainz-sama asked for help just to make the existence of the Great Tomb of Nazarick public. For this the empire would have to provide diplomatic and military support. Since with this revelation, Ainz also wanted to claim some land around the Tomb as well.

Lands that belonged to the E-RANTEL kingdom.

Since the kingdom and empire are long-standing public enemies, an announcement from someone named Ainz Ooal Gown wanting to claim a portion of their lands would be pointless, meaning if diplomacy doesn't work, we resort to force, and that's what happened afterward. that the announcement was officially made, the empire would definitely be going to war against the kingdom in order to found a new nation. The Sorecerer Kingdom, whose king was called the Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown.

In this war Ainz-sama uses a spell that only in the initial effect, kills 75 thousand soldiers of the kingdom, and as an additional effect, hideous monsters in the form of goats with 5 feet and with a height of more than 3 meters were summoned, which gave them the power to shake the ground every time he took a step, which swept through the army, killing more than 150,000 soldiers. Not that it was necessary, but the fact that the kingdom did not heed the demand to cede the lands was a reason for Ainz to regard the kingdom as his enemy.

In the midst of chaos...

Amidst the chaos, Gazef finds himself with his armor and equipment that gives him strength that all mortals could never achieve. He is bewildered amidst the confusion only hearing screams and the sounds of flesh being mashed. But something catches his attention, an existence known to him, he finds himself mounted on one of these freaks, not mounted as if on a horse, but on a kind of throne made with large prominences resembling octopus tentacles that come out of the body. of these things.

There, imposing and at the same time carefree, is Ainz, who seemed to be enjoying some kind of spectacle. After a respectful greeting, Ainz asks Gazef to become his subject, however Gazef refuses, and having as a witness, Brain Unglaus and Climb (character who was introduced in the second season, loyal servant of the third princess of the kingdom, friend by profession of Gazef, and Brain's training partner), Gazef challenges Ainz Ooal Gown to a duel.

That is all. Unfortunately I won't tell you what resulted from this duel, but I can say that the sword wielded by Gazef, was said by Ainz himself that it would be able to kill him. Anyway, this duel is epic and its consequences are even more so. I think spoilers are double-edged swords, it can be interesting and it can be frustrating. Depends how it goes.
