THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
Not much a fan of the art style, it's a bit too childish for a series such as this. Already, all the main guardians of Nazarick have been introduced. We got a glimpse of what Momonga's real life self looks like, now let's see how he'll cope in his new reality.

What a cast of characters. My favorite would be the skull guy right now. Seems a bit generic but whatever.

Yeah..I mean its there in correspondence with the LN but I feel like its truly lacking the Grittiness,Dark,Brutal even and everything the LN has.
Which really shows how much of an Overlord Momonga is.

Also this was a bad introduction IMO
not showing how Nazarick looks like and what not.
Damn,In the LN I can truly feel how Momonga held his comrades deeply..
It was also pretty fast paced and missed the in depth introduction of each characters..How the twins were afraid of Momonga due to his presence,etc.
(Yeah I'm overestimating a manga adaptation lol)

Bah.At least we got to see Albedo xD
Hope the next chapter doesn't Fuck everything up.That would show how evil they are.

Yeah style is not that fitting but pretty good start...I was literally Oh boy, when it was supposed to end and he closes his eyes, next moment...hello new World and Amazing adventure...along with Gigantic Shock!! XD Lol, he laid his bed moment he changed those protocols from Albedo..now he hast to rest in it. goodbyes to nakama are sad..even if they ABANDONEd the guild.

LITERALLY REAP WHAT YOU SEW!!! Albedo's reaction and that Skull's face was hilarious.XD and interactions between Shalltear and Aura are hilarious.

Hmm...let the Conquer Begin? XD

The art is fine, it's just that the chapter isn't cleaned properly :( see how it's grey and not detailed?
C'mon people you can call out anime quality instantly, but not this? geezus :(

Good chapter, f*ck the real world I'd be a skeleton wizard too.

Not really liking Albedo's design. She's much hotter in the LN's illustration >.>

But i like how they skipped some unnecessary parts.

Some ways yes and some ways no.

Similar:
SAO & Overlord: Both are about a game and both are trapped inside said game.

Difference:
SAO: MC is *fight,struggle,win* and the objective is they fight to escape the game they're trapped in. The game itself is fresh into beta when the developer traps them

OverLord: MC is *kill* (its very one-sided) and the objective is more or less world domination. The MC and his tower are transported to a different world and not exactly the game world he knows and he doesn't think about escaping. The game itself is ending its life and shutting down when MC is transported.

Looks like you are unaware of the whole VRMMO genre... And if I can take a guess, Log Horizon would be your "first manga" with that kind of story?

Yeah like SAO introduced that genre lololololol.
Also Overlord is more grittier than SAo anyway.
World domination!

Going by that logic, SAO is copying .hack, which began in 2002. SAO is utter garbage anyway, nobody with half a brain would copy it.

SAO was conceived in 2002, make sure to get your facts straight before using it as evidence to denounce a series.

Excellent start. Haven't either read the LN or watch the anime, but I'll keep it up with the manga :)

I never thought I would read the Overlord manga, but I guess I was wrong...
