This anime started out pretty interesting, until all the weird BDSM, sub-male/dom-female fetish crap started really becoming pronounced.
When the adult male protagonist acts like a subservient dog human, is there meaningful character buildup? Does it relate to the plot in any way? Does it improve the anime in any way? No... It's extremely forced and awkward, I swear it's like I'm watching someones personal fetish movie, or perhaps propaganda that's the next step after the "permavirgin shy protagonist" meme we've all been seeing for the past 20 years...

Overlord II

add
A far cry from season 1. Season 2 of Overlord takes several steps back in terms of production quality. Virtually every episode follows the same crummy format.
1.Character does something wrong or reacts to something being done wrong. 2.Character has long winded dialogue to another character as they exchange exposition as unnaturally as possible for 15 minutes. 3.Action scene, but since all the main characters are op, and the directors know there is no tensity to the fighting. We are instead treated to watching random cliche characters nobody cares about, fight. 4.??? Episode ends. I don't think anyone was trying when they made this. What a joke. |
