So Overlord, The franchise I love not because of the anime but those channels that talks about skip content of the anime (e.g. AniNews).
These part of the reviews was a short story of why i like overlord and i message for the haters so you could understand why overlord was so popular:
The first time I watched the first half of Overlord s1 (around 1 month before season 4), I was underwhelmed and always wonder why this story got so popular despite it being so mediocre. I watched the rest of s1 and the early part of s2 (especially the lizardman part) with basically no enjoyment.
...
While I'm ready to give up on this series, I stumble upon these bizarre amounts of Overlord skip-content videos and realize how ridiculous the amount of content and context that was being skipped+rearranged in the anime. These missing lore and skipped content videos are the ones that make me end up rewatching and finishing the entire 3 seasons. So yeah, the anime was basically a not-so-good representation of the lore and series in general but I still appreciate it.
SO back to present day and s4 was basically the same. The animation improve a bit I guess but I'm not even sure myself. Story wise it's still pretty good but lacking so much freakin context as usual. Every time I finish 1 episode I will end up searching for these skipped content videos or waiting for AniNews or Espiritu (both are anitubers) to make one.
That basically the end of my reviews. Sorry if it was a bit messy cause it was the first time I write reviews. Also, I prever to tell stories rather than structured reviews. I will definitely try to buy all the LN and start reading it if I have any time zz. I still have to swallow around 15 volumes of Ascendance of Bookworm so it might take a while lol.
