Shi Cao Lao Long Bei Guan Yi E Long Zhi Ming

Both have similar style of humor, idiotic characters, and silly plot. The setting is similar as a generic fantasy world, primarily around towns, and the art is somewhat similar. In both cases there is a demon lord threatening the land, though the protagonists aren't particularly interested in dealing with them, if they were even capable. The main difference is that KonoSuba is perverted, and Shi Cao Long is innocent and cute. 

The humor is very similiar, MC is actually not a "supreme being"/"great evil dragon" but even when he tells others, they don't believe it. All the time when MC says something like "don't hurt these humans" his subordinates think it's a great plan to ultimately rule over all of them or something like that. Also the subordnates in both animes are incredibly powerful, more than any human could imagine and the MC tries to prevent them from abusing their power while also keeping his image as villain. Also both main characters are somewhat intelligent and cautious. The clear difference between the two animes is of course that the MC in "Shi Cao .." is actually weak while the MC in Overlord is overpowered. Then the gore, which is basically non existing in "Shi Cao ..". And that the goals of the MCs are different. The great evil dragon just wants to chill in cave, but has to solve problems in the world because of his lies, while Ainz (the Overlord) wants to live his life in this new word and make his subordinates happy by being a good (evil) ruler. read more 

To "Shi Cao Lao Long Bei Guanyi E Long Zhi Ming" I would like to recommend the series "Dragon, Ie wo Kau". Both series take the fantasy genre for a ride in an amusing way. The main character is a cowardl... (cough), peaceful dragon who is forced into a new situation by certain circumstances. The backstories are different, but both anime give the dragon a lot of trouble due to his imposing appearance, which is in total contradiction to his personality. So the series offer a lot of comedy and also some action in a nice medieval setting. The visuals are good in both cases, slightly above average. The episodes of "Shi Cao Lao" are relatively short, but the narrative still doesn't feel rushed. The graphics in "Dragon, Ie wo Kau" are a bit more elaborate, especially the landscape renderings are very nice. The soundtracks are very fitting and better than I expected. Among others, I liked the two OPs 'Roll-playing' sung by Ooishi, Masayoshi and 'Wèi guāng [for the light]' sung by Liu Junlang. As always, thanks for reading and have fun watching. read more
