I started with Overlord season 1 and have a question about the specials and the films. At what point is it best to watch them? After the 4 seasons or somewhere in between?

I'm pretty sure the films are just recaps of the season.

Then the Ple Ple Pleadias or whatever it's called are specials for after the season. So Ple Ple 1 is after season 1. Then Ple Ple 2 is after season 2 and so on.

Also Nazarick’s Greatest Crisis, and Clementine something or other.

I think there’s some extra content that’s not listed here on MAL for some reason, stumbled upon it looking for all the extras but I can’t be sure anymore.

Edit: the missing content might have been the Overlord Movie: Ple Ple Pleiades content which I couldn’t find a subbed stream, seems you can find torrents though stated on their episode threads here.

All the other stuff is extra non-cannon side stories. The movies are just recaps so you can just watch all the seasons in order and get everything. The new movie that’s going to come out after season 4 however is not going to be a recap and is going to cover the Holy Kingdom arc so if you want to watch chronologically then you would watch the new movie after episode 7 of season 4 but the movie is not out yet as of now.

If you wish to treat this incident as our nation’s scheme, that is fine by me. History is written by the victors. All of your false accusations will soon be erased.

Just watch the episodes in the regular order nothing special. Nothing else really adds any story or is a recap film which is the show but worse.

Movies are Just recaps, ple ple pleiades are extra episodes that tried to give overlord vibes in the middle of the week or give some extra piece of information that the anime Didnt cover.
I recomend watching isekai quartet tho, specially if u watched the remaining shows, its a funny interaction showing what would be like if X number of completly diferent isekais and their VAs Interacted, what they would talk about or do, etc

There’s a few drama cd’s and the one about the battle against the giant tree with the name I won’t even bother attempting to pronounce should be listened to after season 1. Otherwise just go seasons 1 through 4 in order. You could just listen to the drama cd’s afterwords though.

Do you mean the Theocracy when you said Holy Kingdom? They kind of glossed over everything Demiurge did as Jaldaroft and how they needed aid from the sorcerer Kingdom, in the newest episode...

I'm pretty sure the 2 movies are just recaps of the first season

Thank you for the answers.
I have listed Special 1 - 8, Film 1 and 2, a total of 15 Ple Ple Pleiades and Ple Ple Pleiades - Clementine Toubou-hen 1 -3.

The mass intimidated me for a moment.

Nope I mean the Roble Holy Kingdom which is separate from the Theocracy and hasn’t been seen yet In the show but the new movie will be all about it. Also all the stuff Jaldabaoth does will also be covered in the movie so I won’t say anything else to avoid spoilers.
