Honestly Im one of those people that dont give af about the use of CGI in this series. Its mainly used for armies anyway. But halfway through that goblin army introduction it got pretty bad to the point of their mouths not even moving. They looked a bit weird lol. Other then that the CGI has been fine in my opinion.

I can deal with a little bit of CGI here and there, but this was terrible to see... I mean to be fair most of it was just showing the 10+ squads of the army, but still.
I wonder how Enri now summoned so much, but I guess she learned some skill while leading and being nice to goblins in general.
I constantly expect Lupusregina to betray Ainz, even though she probably won't. It's the same feeling Demiurge gives me, making me doubt them somehow.

Enri summoned one hell of a atrocious-cgi goblin army there with her second summoning horn. Could only imagine how easy defeating the trolls from some episodes ago would have been if used earlier.

have u noticed how strong she has become? she can arm-wrestle monsters so ofc she has gained some skills i think it also hints to what Ainz said and the horn name, also how ogers when they first arrived at the village feared her yell at them its all connected somehow cause why and how would a oger fear a human rising their voice? they wouldn't so she is somehow surpassing normal human limits

considering what i said above i think if she was not as high lvl she is new the horn would have been less effective i think that exp actually lvl'd her up more

I'm definitely in the minority judging by the comments (from 3 years ago), but the CGI doesn't bother me at all. When CGI is used to cover vast quantities of troops, I honestly prefer it over shows that just shake around a still plate image & put action lines everywhere.

At least this way we get actual animated characters moving & background characters moving around. I understand not liking CGI, but this doesn't bother me at all, & I actually enjoy it.

I am the only one who watch overlord without understanding or some sh!t.
I watched season 1 back in 2015 with a lot of jump and skip.
when season 2 finished airing I only interested in part that pretend to work with human.
when season 3 wait I don't remember much and forgot everything.
might as well to rewatch from beginning

to add what i said in past Enris power may also be side effect to the red HP potion it changed her gave her skills what she has lvl'd up with hard work without knowing + the STR

The CGI looked, how do I put this, quite interesting and at some points just funny. But knowing why they're using it, I'm okay with it and don't mind it too much.

I was always wondering what kind of goblin troops Enri would summon with the horn she got from Ainz, but this was an overwhelming surprise, especially the variety of castes, high armored foot soldiers and soldiers on mounts. The E-Rantel soldiers/army got completely destroyed.

That ending though. At the beginning I wasn't sure about Lupusregina and her crazy side, but now I'm definitely in for it, this time it kinda turned me on ngl lol. I also don't think Komatsu Mikako could have voiced this scene any better, just amazing.

2 episodes left. I guess the "big" fight is about to start.

HEYO, I found Goblin-Kongming

Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

15:00 Is he the goblin ver. of Zhuge Liang? His army looks cool! It reminded me of the scene when the Dwarven Army joined the fight in The Hobbit movie. It gave me that same kind of goosebumps.
Lupusregina made Renner and her brother's plan to take over the kingdom much easier.

I might as well address the elephant in the room so to speak: I don't have a problem with the CGI. Honestly I didn't really notice it half the time because I was more or less just focusing on the action itself rather than the animation for the armies in question for this particular episode I mean this is coming from a guy who has watched Beast Wars a show that has dated animation by today's standards because it's like early CGI from the 90s but the thing about Beast Wars that Overlord also does is the fact that the people working on both shows are able to work around the bad animation, for Beast Wars, it was literally the story and the characters which is something Overlord excels at very well. And if even I had noticed the bad CGI in this episode, I personally wouldn't have cared either way. Because I see it more as a minor thing than a major thing that effects the episode altogether.

Anyways the episode, really, really, really good I must say. I honestly was not expecting Enri to summon all those fricking goblins all at once and just utterly annihilate the army from E-Rantel. Even Ainz and Mori couldn't believe it. XD

I didn't think Lupusregina was that sadistic and it was a little off putting cuz I only saw her true nature at the end of one of the last episodes for this season in particular but come this episode, I can definitely see it now. I mean my god that look she gave Barbro was very chilling indeed. I think alongside maybe Narbel she's probably my favourite when it comes to the battle maids of Nazarick, definitely a favourite of mine.

Honestly, this season sucked the most and the only thing I found interesting was the village and story around it.

That said, CGI in anime is ALWAYS bad. I have never seen a single anime with CGI that didn't look like a shitty JRPG.

The issue with this episode was that they not only had bad CGI but kept the camera on the bad CGI forever. Usually they try to mask the shit CGI by moving the camera around and cutting to regular animation constantly. But in this episode they not only had shitty low-poly assets, but close-up of everything. Just dumb.


That said, it was one of the very few good episodes this season. So better than the shit that comes before and after.
