| DUDE I was hella hyped when I was talking about it with a friend early that day it released saying stuff like oh yeah can’t wait for it to be released sometime this year (we had no idea when and didn’t bother looking it up) and as soon as I try to sleep MAL hit me with the notification that ep 1 was out. Tried to find where abouts I could watch it, got like a minute in and decided to wait for more episodes to binge it all in a day. :) |
 |
| weirdly read vol 10 just recently right up to where this episode ends exactly, there is next to no change, I'll probably refrain from reading it now unless the season gets too CGI heavy like the last one. |
| I hope I can watch episode 1 tomorrow😄 |
 |
| I have high hopes. Missed the twin elves and Albedo. |

FreezePeach said: "I wouldn't say he doesn't understand, but rather he doesn't know everything they're doing" - he says it literally in this episode: "there is no way a salaryman can run an entire country but I still have to look the part". He is incompetent, he knows it, and he extends his ridiculous "kingdom" anyway. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

| I enjoyed the first episode, that was a good start😄 |
|
| OMG! here we go S4!!! Albedo's obsession to Ainz never fails to amuse me! Pandora's Actor always cracks me-up! VA Miyano Mamoru is really exemplar! 5/5. |
 |
| Been waiting so long for O4.. and the episode felt like it went for 5 mins... very slow pace and lots of dialogue. Love the fan service as usual too. Also like new girl Fith.. I don't remember much of her in the LN (been awhile).. but she was cute.. got quite abit of screen time. Animation quality and art looked a little better too. Looking forward to more. |
 |
| Damn it was soo great to see some of the characters again, the interactions are great as usual and the hype is real. Wish albedo would rape me. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Starting off the episode with albedo's antics was very enjoyable to watch. The twins's crossdressing goes deep into their core that they'd like all the kids to do it. What a cruel city it'd become. I liked seeing Pandora's Actor again too. Ainz's goal at the end of this episode makes me believe that he's just quite the lonely dude who'd rather have comrades like he used to and not servants. I doubt he's going to get that in these guys though! |
 |
| Bit of a slow start tbh. Should've started the season the a bang to hype people up. But I get it. |
 |
| Good to see those familiar faces again and Ainz got things to be done in this season, am happily to hop on that journey with the gang again. |
| Already rushed, missing a lot of crucial details, and already looking on budget. I didn't expect much and I was right to do so. |
Triggerfish124 said: Episode was pretty good. Gave it a 4/5 because I felt like Ainz's negotiation with the guild leader went too smoothly. Im sure some people will probably comment to this saying why it should be obvious, but from my view I think the fact the Ainz is (a) an undead, (b) a new ruler that killed many of the men in that city in war, (c) is the reason for lack of adventurer work and the present stagnation of the city's economy, and (d) its customary to always keep the guild out from under governmental powers is enough reason for the guild leader to not be easily persuaded in one meeting. it was exactly like that in the LN, so read it if you want the non-cut version of the conversation in its entirety slavemaster_1991 said: Already rushed, missing a lot of crucial details, and already looking on budget. I didn't expect much and I was right to do so. what crucial details lol I re-read vol 10 right before watching, and no major part was cutout I don't consider that conversation with the mythril adventurer as major since nothing of significance was discussed, just added more layers to the characters also the art/animation look cleaner than before so I don't think you know what you're talking about when you say budget remember budget isn't really important, it's the time spent on production |

abystoma2 said: Eifue said: The whole Overlord is a politics arc.It's a great episode and all but are we getting into the politics arc like every other isekai where the MC is just establishing a country for good PR? I disagree, we can see from the first 3 seasons that the series was exploring different themes and exploring the philosophical question as what to do when you are the peak of power but you're unambitious? The political mindgames in this season may just be a McGuffin to explore another side of this question. |
| I like how this time we know the overall goal and what type of ruler he wants to be. |

| so season 4 was release when Volume 14 was release as well by looking at the OP the Dragon from season 2 will appeared in his armor Platinum Dragon Lord |
 |
| Finally real adventures for adventurers! Or spies as well. XD |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
Link_9371 said: very boring, just talking Yet you rated Bakemonogatari 9/10 ;) |
 |
| really solid episode; i like the change of outfit since it's less terrifying to the people although still a bit extravagant |
 |
| I just really enjoy him just having a fun time with his servant, very funny and interesting to watch, also I still prefer his original clothes. |
 |
| i liked it when it was 2d politics not 3d fighting |
| Madhouse. No other words are needed. |
| decent start to the anime |
 |
| How do you do when you missclick the answer and you put 4 when you wanted to put 5 !!!! AAAAHHH ! what an affront ! xD |
| first thing i half to address: oh Albedo as hilarious as ever, almost went in to rape mode again lol |
| Albedo art become less quality but the story is still interesting. Let's see how it is going. |

| Off to a nice start with Albedo scenes! I can't get enough of her! She is so cute, so beautiful, so everything! 1:52 How I wish I am being served by such beautiful maids right now. 3:13 I'm also a regular salaryman, but if I'm given the chance, I'm sure I can run a feudal country thanks to my thousands of hours playing Crusader Kings, especially if I am a powerful being like Ainz. lol 13:04 Ah, that was Pandora's Actor playing Momon. No wonder Albedo was so hostile toward him. I dream of living in a utopia! I wish Ainz invaded & ruled real life. |
| Forgive me for I have neglected to watch this fourth season of Overlord for oh so long... As someone who has read the light novels, I know exactly what will happen, but truthfully, I can only get even more excited of what's to come! Oh lord, seeing Ainz in all his glory after so long has made me happy, the first half of the ep showcases his daily routine of sorting out the laws that he must accept or deny. Now the interesting bit comes in the second half of the ep. In the [font="\"Google Sans\", Roboto, arial, sans-serif"]Sorcerer Kingdom, the existence of undead black knights has pretty much annihilated the need for adventurers to pose as guards or bounty killers. And with that, Ainz's proposal to make all adventurers take on a job that suits their name in the first place is one that many would hopefully take with eagerness. ADVENTURERS ARE SUPPOSED TO GO ON AN ADVENTURE! What better goal does one require?! No more menial labour and boring tasks. Let the people seek out the world.[/font] Ainz's ultimate goal is to find his colleagues, his friends. Establishing his own Kingdom aside from Nazarick is one step towards that, but making this kingdom of his prosper with many various races united under the flag of Ainz Ooal Gown is what will send the names of the Kingdom all across this new wide world... |
