So Overlord the franchise I enjoy not because of the anime but those channels that talks about skip the contents of the anime. For a very long time I really want to watch isekai quartet. I had already watched Tanya rezero and konosuba but never touch or interested in overlord before. Thats the reason why I started overlord 4 months ago. The first time I watched the first half of Overlord s1 around 1 month before season 4 I was underwhelmed and always wonder why it got highly praised despite being just ok. I watched the rest of s1 and half of s2 especially the lizardman part with basically no enjoyment. While Im ready to give up on this series I stumble upon these bizarre amounts of Overlord skipcontent videos and realize how ridiculous the amount of content and context that was being skipped+rearranged in the anime. These missing lore character development and skipped content type videos are the ones that make me end up rewatching and finishing the entire 3 seasons. So yeah the anime was basically a notsogood representation of the lore and series in general but I still appreciate it. So back to the present day and s4 was basically the same. ART: The animation was ok sometimes it was 5/10 sometimes it was 7/10. The CG wasnt as bad as 3rd seasons sheep and definitely watchable. STORY: Storywise its still pretty good. I definitely miss that time when ainz still moving around as momon and doing so much more stuff actively rather than just sitting down while relying on his comrades or his feared influential existence. On the other hand it was good seeing that he was finally able to trust and utilize his comrades actively/efficiently. The negative part about the story was still pretty much the same as the last 3 seasons. it lacks 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. Not mentioned there was a huge chunk of context missing in the middle of seasons making some anime watchers confused. The missing part will be adapted as a movie. the holy kingdom arc MUSIC: The OP was a banger. The rest I cant comment on it. I had almost no braincell for music. Music was basically just beeps and boops for me. Thats basically the end of my reviews. Sorry if it was a bit messy cause it was the first time I write reviews. Also I prefer to tell stories rather than structured reviews. The show was overall enjoyable and I will definitely try to read the LN if I have any time. I still have to swallow around 15 volumes of Ascendance of Bookworm so it might take a while lol.
