| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh this face~  As expected, Albedo still acts around with a silly look on her face. Then, there are the other characters who show respect to the skeleton dude. Looks like there's some rivalry going on between her Albedo and Shalltear lmao  |
 |
| Slow-paced episode. An in-depth introduction to the Guardians. Albedo and Shalltear have a thing going on over Momonga. It's pretty funny, the difference between Albedo in front of Momonga and Albedo with just the Guardians. Plus, she's pretty possessive. Look how jealous she got when Momonga gave Mare the teleportation ring first. Also, I find Momonga trying to leave Nazarick in his Black Knight armor only to be caught by Demiurge interesting and a bit funny. He really doesn't have much freedom in Nazarick despite being the leader. Anyway, it was a low key episode that continued the setup from last week but it looks like something's happening next week from the last scene of the episode. |
| Looks like they'll make a 1:1 material, which is what I'm worried for. overall, 7.8/10 episode. |

The titles we have of the next episodes show a 4 episode per volume with one left over. More than enough to end at volume three even if they take their time, the best place to end it. |

Even though he is an Overlord he is still kind to those who serve him.  |
 |
| Very slow first 15 minutes. I really liked everything from the fly scene to the end though. |
| Another slower outing, getting to know the guardians. I'm loving all of them, especially Albedo! :D Conflict next time? |

| Crazed Albedo is too great lol Still makes me laugh every time he calls the butler 'Sebas' Anyway liked this ep quite a lot :D |
| A slow paced episode where we get to understand more of the guardians' personalities. I don't mind though, since it seems to be a nice build up to the next episode where action is probably going to take place. I really like Momonga as a character so far. Especially his inner monologues which is funny imo. I really like the opening song too. On another note....I hope future episodes don't get too rushed...well...if it is, i guess i will just read the light novel. Anyway, this is a decent episode. Looking forward to the next one. |

| I love slow paced episode more than fast ones, so I'm loving this series so far! Albedo is awesome, really like the vampire too, nvm I actually love all the characters so far, looking forward to see if they really re good in battle too! Looks like next episode we will have some action. Let's see if Momonga is really the true lord. |
| Wasn't expecting yet another prologue-esque episode but I don't particularly mind, that wasn't so bad at all One hell of a quirky harem though |

Thing is, The size of the sword Nabel's carrying though, damn.  Thing is you see scenes from vol 5 and 6 in the opening so not only 4. Im confident this season is vol 1-3 and next season will be season 4-6. |
| Wow, first ep implied the pacing will be way faster than this but this ep slowed down quite a lot. Nice. It's hilarious how the guardians see Momonga in such a grandiose way and how he reacts to it. His "EH?!" are lol...must be tough acting all high and mighty like that 24/7 XD Aura's "I'm only 76 so I can still grow" was lol and damn! Mare's a trap :P The "U should've gotten wet" argument between Shalltear and Albedo was hilarious XD Loved the scene when Momonga flew up viewing the world. Beautiful :3 And Dat Albedo jelly when she saw Mare having the ring before her lol |
 |
| Albedo's facial expressions were hilarious. I need more of this :D |
 |
| With this episode a new waifu war has started who will get mr. skeletons bone? I liked that we got some more insight on the guardians, but Mare being a boy? What is this show trying to do to me. Now I just have to survive another week until the next episode. |
DesuTronic said: "Fool!" -Excalibur (Soul Eater)Even though he is an Overlord he is still kind to those who serve him. Spoiler: His true intention was to hide who the person using teleportation is. (He was the only one with the ring...) ... From what I learned in the chapters in the manga I've read so far, I didn't get the impression that the NPCs were self-aware to this level. They didn't appear to have a full concept of their "supreme being creators" as far as I could tell. Although this could change a lot of things, I feel it could just as easily tell what the manga does. I also believe this could lead to a more enjoyable anime than it would otherwise be. EDIT: Darthchef444 said: Yeah, that was pretty funny. Um, she said I was an "otoko no ko" -Mare (Overlord) That creator girl knows her stuff! hehehI liked that we got some more insight on the guardians, but Mare being a boy? |

| Holy damn Albedo's facial expressions actually terrified me :o Pretty funny how she acts all reserved and polite in front of Momonga then turns bat shit insane when he's gone. It was a slow episode but I still enjoyed it. And was that Dio I heard at the end there :D |
| Albedo's facial expressions O.O |
| Looks like something will happen next week. Hope you all enjoy watching. Dropping this. Not interested in the world at all and the characters blow. |
| Thank god, they seem to take things slow. Good episode. |
 |
| slow but very good |
 |
| Albedo's face in this episode was priceless XD Axelucard_ said: slow but very good I agree with you. |
| This episode was shitty(animation/FPS-wise) too or it is better than episode 1? I dont quite understand the tv stations and stuff while downloading so... |
 |
| Damn it Albedo, you're creepy |
| An alright episode, and those facials... :P I'm worried that giving the subordinates a teleport ring, could backfire at some point. |
| Somehow this animation looks so bad to me :/ |
CandyFace said: An alright episode, and those facials... :P I'm worried that giving the subordinates a teleport ring, could backfire at some point. exactly wat i was thinking. I just hope albedo doesnt do anything crazy later on with that ring 0_0 |
| Another great episode. I love that Madhouse is taking their time and not rushing things. Laughed my ass off when Shalltear got wet and said Albedo should've as well! It's nice that though he gets flustered on occasion, Momonga is able to present the image of a competent leader to all of his subordinates. Their undying loyalty to him is an excellent aspect, and I would hate to see that go. |
 |
| This episode have nice pacing. In the OP, I just realized that they put the part where Gonna be pretty tough to put all in 1 season. I love how Albedo shows her ultra crazy bitch side when she fight with Shalltear. Dark Warrior Momon!! |
| I'm really loving the pacing of this so far. Madhouse are really doing the source material justice so far, so I'm currently very satisfied. Hopefulyl it doesn't get rushed in later episodes to fit in the stuff from the later volumes that appears in the OP (hopefully it's an indication for a second season in the future rather than an indication of this season being rushed to hell). |
Oh yeah! A yandere! ❤ I'm loving Albedo's transformation from regal to freaky.   Making girls wet must be one of Momonga's special abilities. |

Takuan_Soho said: It was an interesting decision to go slow the first two episodes, most productions wouldn't want to take that risk. So I am hoping it pays off. So it would be a better option to skip over all of this and just jump right into action? |
|
| Better episode than last week, this is building up nicely. Looking forward to nest weeks episode |
| Demiurge : So what we gonna do today Overlord? Overlord : The same thing we do every day Frogman, try to take over the world! That Narberal scene <3 |
 |
| It is interesting how the Guardians knows that their lord stayed with them to the end. That contrast with Momonga breaking a sweat but then it was intimidating to the Guardians xD That goes to Albedo too lol |
 |
| was alright, i don't mind slow but this felt reeeeealy slow and still don't know what to think of this. hope we will soon find out if the mc really is the only player in this world or not |
| Still cant FEEL this show yet. But its interesting and amazing OP and ED |
| Shirayuki= Most Perfect Female MC ever |
| Overlord is quite entertaining and im enjoying it for the most part But the super slow pace, and the fact that pretty much nothing has happned is really bringing this show down for me. |
| Sigh, what was the point of that damn trap... Still, looks like a pretty promising series. MC got used to the situation too fast and too well but I guess it wouldn't be really that interesting to see the process either. Somehow I don't mind that part. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Albedo's facial expressions were great lol. A more slow-paced episode but it looks like things will start to pick up in the next episode |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Albedo is probably gonna be a yandere. I wouldn't mind though since she is HOT :3. Man the MC is pretty nice im liking him. Just wish he wasn't a skeleton and a human instead. This way he can make babies easier :p |
[center] *>.>[Spoiler][/spoiler]<.<* [center] |
| New yandere coming up I guess... haven't had one for a while. Another peaceful episode for an anime that doesn't look like it should be peaceful. Hopefully next episode we get to see some chaos. |
| Albedo showing her true colors, haha I love it |
