Overlord Movie 2: Shikkoku no Eiyuu

This is a recap of the second half of the first season.
It cuts out about an hour of content and adds some minor scenes, most notably in the final fight which clarify parts of the plot.

I would still recommend watching the first season in its entirety if you're planning to watch the rest of Overlord, but if you're tight on time, or just looking for a rewatch, this is a pretty decent recap. It mostly cuts out narrative worldbuilding and some character interactions, resulting in 90 minutes of back to back action.

You won't be missing that much by substituting The Undead King and ... The Dark Hero for season one. The most discarded elements are those involving the adventurer's guild and some Nazarick politics.

At the time of writing this there are no reviews, and if you are reading this then you are probably wondering what reason, if any, is there to watch this if you have already seen the show. The honest answer is not a whole lot.

If you haven't seen the first television season then this will be a good recap to prep you for the second season. If you have seen the first season then know this movie covers roughly episodes 8 through 13. Keep in mind there are a few extended scenes.

Peppered throughout the film are several moments of extended dialogue, battles, and a few ... changes that include the appearance, albeit brief, of an as yet undefined character.

So put it like this; if you have an hour and a half, think you'd enjoy a re-watch of the second half of the first season that focuses on the highlights, and wouldn't mind seeing a little extra, then this movie is for you.

If you haven't seen the first season, but have seen the first movie and liked it, then what are you waiting for? You're gonna love this! ;)
