| It was a nice watch. Demiurge's face to Shalltear's worry was hilarious XD And she looked kinda hawt with her hair down like that. Tho, I've got some questions that I'm not sure or know about. |
 |
| I think the anime did it's job and made people jump to the LN, if only I had that choice as well... But the anime was awesome, yes it was slow but what isn't these days...The fight's made up for it and the gore also added to that, like the end fight, he took her arm off and that was brutal. I can't really say I disliked any of the character's, I mean what we saw of them they were all awesome, including the best girl of the year..BEST GIRL OF THE YEAR HANDS-DOWNS I cannot wait for season 2 9/10 from me |
| Absolutly amazing, best anime of the season. 8/10 for now 9/10 depending if it gains a second season or not and if the quality stands at it is or raises |
| Its all according to Ains' keikaku! Super effective. 7/10 would watch S2 but Madhouse is Madhouse. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
Demiurge's face looks epic lol |
| Meh, seriously all bad repercussions were removed because yay Ainz just resurrected the girl..... All possible emotional impact removed... well not like there would be any, those characters are about as developed as cardboard boxes. Generally meh episode to a meh anime. If this gets a second season I will most likely pass on that... unless that season will be as bad as this one forcing me to watch it to kill time.. Also this episode being the ending is extra shit for essentially not resolving anything and feeling like just another episode of the series... if no season 2 then this is a terrible terrible ending. The characters in this anime... for someone like me for who characters matter the most out of everything in anime this anime sucked dick character-wise... everyone is bland/uninteresting/annoying/generic.... 5/10 series, average, and 'average anime' ain't exactly great. Although I gave it a 6/10 on my list due to the rest of my 5/10 anime being even worse... |

| REJECT ANIMU - EMBRACE TOKU |
| was good I guess. 7/10 to the Anime. Was somewhat rushed and lot of stuff felt as it needed explaining.. like that vampire girl ugly transformed weak.. which looked pathetic and simply had strength of ravage beast.. Then they ended it when stuff got finally a bit more complex.. and interesting. Yeah would been better with 24 episodes.. or have it less rushed 12 episodes and make it 2 cour.. |
 |
| A disappointment. ;-;... Was expecting much more from Mad House. Hopefully there's a second season to alleviate for this season. |
 |
| It was good, yeah. But just ... good. 7/10. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| Meh, a bit underwhelming even at the end. Had potential at the start. Had some decent moments though, so a 6 from me. |
| Damn it man we need a season 2. |
 <--- Who Your Waifus Look Up To --->  |
| This was an alright final episode, but compared to how good most of the rest of the series was, it wasn't anything special. As a whole, more moments of Ains being an absolute badass would definitely be nice, and a season 2 is something that definitely needs to happen. If that fails, there's always the chance that the LNs will get licensed. 9/10 |
| The best game-related anime. 10/10 but imo the animation was meh. |
| Awesome. That ending so epic and full of hype. All Guardians gathered. I'm guessing they plan to attack the Lizardman village. Season 2 please. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| for anyone that said this anime 9/10 u all have to read the light novel it should more epic,there are so many part been cut for me 6.5/10 |
| I liked the anime throughout, but this last episode was incredibly meh. |
iLove3P said: Sequel or not, I kinda wish they'd make more shows similar to this. I'm pretty tired of the goody-hero ones. I'd like to see this as well. I really wished they would just adapt things faithful to the source and give them longer durations. Well I guess I'll have to stick to reading the LN. (p.s another light novel you could try with an OP antihero is Re:Monster) |
| Very good start, very. But last arc was the poop of all poops. |
 |
| i want another season |
| Second season will be there I am pretty sure about it.I simply loved this anime.This anime was one of the greatest '' online game based ''.I enjoyed every moment of it.And fighting scene between Shalltear and Supreme being was well made.Ains sama is Over Powered and mostly that kind of appearences always annoys me somehow but it was a diffrent case with Ains-Sama.He earned my sympathy. |
| The Shalltear ressurection and the immediate aftermath were the greatest scenes in Overlord for me. That was really sweet :) Really hard to say now if this gets a second season or not. It does sell well and more things were teased in the final episode, but it's Madhouse. 7/10 |
| Eh, it was pretty average. Interesting concept, but it really didn't hit hard enough on a lot. 6/10. |
People are strange, when you're a stranger |
| On my 2nd watch this screams season 2 X ALL THAT LIZARDMEN HYPE!!!!! "let us purge them my siege"  I hope nobody actually taught shalltear stood a chance XD  YOOOOOO Vol 8 HYPE!!!  Ainz is so lonely :'( The npc's are still no replacement for his guild mates :'(  |

ichii_1 said: I don't think that's quite accurate... Ainz gives the impression of an outcast/solo-player. A lot of things could have been attributed to him putting his hand up and then down.Ainz is so lonely :'( The npc's are still no replacement for his guild mates :'( I believe the NPCs are the only ones that can be a replacement for his 40 guild mates. They reflect their creators because all the NPCs were made by the 41 members and everyone made at least 1 NPC from what I understand. I believe he had complicated feelings about going to the NPCs because they cannot be replacements by they can be his new "family". |

dfsafsaf said: p2w too strong in this one. Overall, I really did enjoy this, especially the first half. This Shalltear arc on the other hand... It was ok for the most part part, but the beginning really really seemed way too rushed. The battle was ok, though I wish the animation for the spells of highest tier had been better. Agree. I feel like the anime started with the right pace and it kept slowing down until the last fight. There were some ep inbetween that made me a bit bored tbh :o |

| was i the only that instantly said "you never had it in the first place"? p.s.: guy up above: no, you don't get it, ainz isn't in sao-like state, is 100% phisically an undead. if the world he lived inb before still exist then yes, his body would be a problem, in that world, but he has no reason to care, he now lives full in this new world, he doesn't lack anything other than what would come from the change of body. |
| Started strongly but got pretty boring towards the end to be honest. I think one has to be a hardcore gamer or manga reader to get the most out of this show. Towards the end I think I was mostly watching to see Albedo, LOL. |

| Great final episode. Sad to see it's over, since I absolutely enjoyed watching this show, although it started kinda weak, but gradually became great, although indeed the pacing was kinda off at some points. Nonetheless, definitely a show I enjoyed this season. 9/10. Hoping for another season. I'll miss Albedo ): Anyone knows how much material was adapted? |

| A sequel would be nice, but Madhouse. Good watch though. |

| that was surprisingly epic now this is a mmo themed anime done right |
| Awesome episode in my eyes. Now the manga only needs to catch up to the LN!! :3 |

Epicenter said: Overrated, but a good watch. i dont think you get what overrated means |
| Poor Lord Ains, he misses his guildmates so much that he's always thinking about them. And instead of guildies he can hang with as peers, he's stuck with a bunch of lickspittle NPCs. Pretty good final episode, although the last bit was a little confusing, there was a few characters i didn't know or forgot about. No doubt they will show up more in the second season. |
| i thought the anime was great, would love to see a season 2 of this for sure. |
 |
| Pretty mediocre. I guess this anime was an alright waste of time. 5,2/10. |

They are family but they cannot be his friends which is what he wants. Their servant attitudes prevents that, and his restricted emotions makes it hard to make friends if he can even make friends since liches seem really bias against everything except their previous memories when they were alive. |

ichii_1 said: What are you saying? There are plenty of realistic and LN/manga/anime scenarios where people can be both friend/family and servant-master. To say it's impossible or unlikely is a joke. They may have their base NPC profile, but they have gained awareness and will in this new world. Albedo didn't stop trying to persuade Ainz to not to fight Shalltear even after he ordered her that he was going... That was NOT in her NPC profile. They can and will change. Another example is Pandora's Actor's profile determined how he will speak and Ainz told him to change it. I'm expecting him to change.kyled00m said: They are family but they cannot be his friends which is what he wants.I don't think that's quite accurate...

Their servant attitudes prevents that, and his restricted emotions makes it hard to make friends if he can even make friends since liches seem really bias against everything except their previous memories when they were alive. Ainz(Momonga)'s emotions are not limited merely by being undead. We don't know what is limiting his emotions but it's clear that his emotions can manifest. He can be happy, fearful, sad, horny, angry, etc however if it becomes too powerful, it gets forcefully pushed down. To explain this in an easier fashion, think of all emotions having a 1~10 scale and when an emotion reaches 7 or higher, they get pushed down. (Spoiler:) I don't believe Ainz is even trying to make friends so why would you bring that up. Safety is the most important thing and Ainz hasn't felt safe since he woke up as his in-game character in Nazarick. This incident with Shalltear has instilled a deep fear in him and I doubt he'll want to make any friends from this point forward... You do not need emotions to make friends, just the desire or determination to make friends. |
