----------------------------------------
Heh, it looks like the final episode included some characters that I think people are familiar with from the second season. Too bad about Gazef. He never stood a chance against Ainz.

Ainz's power is still very evident with his summonings like his Death Knights. It's also seriously about time that we got to see some Albedo. She's been really absent in these latest episodes...

The finale is what it is I guess. Didn't feel too special but seeing characters like Sebas, Albedo, Shalltear again was kinda cool.

Really looking forward to this, when overlord first debuted I didn’t think I would like it as much as I do. Hyped for the finale.

Awesome episode My most favourite character of all time Momonga/Ainz he is so badass and overpower Its awesome.

I bet that Momon was pandora actor in disguise with his abilities considering Albedo was blushing when she was near Ainz.

Awsome hope for a season 4 soon.

So, with this episode the third season of Overlord comes to an end. In all honesty, what I felt most of the time watching was disappointment. Almost every single event seemed rushed, badly executed or both. Although expecting the anime to be as entertaining as the original novel is just plain unreasonable. I guess what I'm trying to say is even if this season wasn't as good as I hoped, it was as good as i expected.

Rest in peace Gazef Stronoff. You were the only human in this story I was genuinely rooting for.
CGI Dark Young, I hope to never see you again.

What was up with that "And the story goes on" right before the ending song? Are you teasing us with a 4th season? Or just letting people know in general that the story isn't over yet?

well the ending feels empty... not like season 1... where there is a feeling like whoaaaaahh...

i think there will be no season 4 (some rumor if there is season 4 it will hurt overlord overall... idk if that true)... because this is already good ending to finish...

Well that was quite a short "battle" between Ainz and Gazef.

Didn't really like this season as much compared to the previous two, and these last few episodes didn't help. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 4th season though.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

So the silhouette at the end of the ED turned out to be a red herring, huh? That's too bad.



And those who are too damaged by the CGI this season... come over to watch Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken! We got beautiful 2D animations (even a Dragon doesn't need CGI!) and visual effects that Madhouse could only dream of! It also has a non-human protagonist and later on got its own fairly dark moments similar to Overlord! And the chief animation directior is Ebata, someone who's appearently very famous for his great animations!

I'm amazed. Season 3 is somehow worse than Season 2 and 1.

This was such a terrible and really, pointless season.

Sure Ains had a few cool moments here and there, but I really don't feel a "point" to this show anymore.

It was boring, it looked atrocious, and the content for Ains being a badass villain isn't interesting anymore. I don't get the Overlord hype. Seriously.

A really bad and just, forgettable season in my books. I've seen 40+ shows this season, and Overlord is among the bottom, especially due to how lazy it was.

Very good overall. The animation/CGI is what mainly brought the series down for me. OST is decent too, though I still think season 1 was the best. So refreshing to see a show about a group of villains trying to conquer the world.

8/10 overall.

Oh ok thanks, must have forgot.

We're 3 seasons in and ains hasn't even had a lick of yggdrasil yet.
I'm starting to think they're intentionally fucking the anime over at some places to push people the novel.
But i still enjoyed the season, even the last weeks episode made me laugh cause of that CGI. Wasn't as good as season 1 and wasn't ass like season 2. I dont mind that the show takes its time with its world building either, i actually liked some of the other character arcs.

I will remember that CGI till the day i die

Hmmm, I honestly didn't expect to enjoy this final episode as much as I did. It managed to somewhat erase the terrible taste the last several episodes had left me with.

Overall, this season wasn't as good as I hoped it would be, but it wasn't a disappointment like season 2 either. Although there was that atrocious use of CGI, I have no complaints when it comes to regular 2d animation, it was surprisingly solid.
If we ever get a Season 4, I hope takes better care of the production.

In case of whole season: Overlord S3 might been worse than S1 and S2 but still is 10/10 on it's own isekai league with it's almost perfect world building and pleiade of various characters in an interesting setting

I think people who binge watch will be much more receptive towards how this third season of Overlord went. It just seems like the kind that's better off to be watched in one go, since it makes it easier to remember what happened in previous episodes.

I was hoping to see a coronation scene with Ainz declaring his ownership of e-rantel to the citizens living inside of it. Would have been awesome to see how scared they would be lol. (Like the one with the lizardmen)

Bad cgi aside, I would definitely watch the 4th season if they are planning to make one.

Yeah...really sounds as if that was the last season of Overlord, I haven't read the LN but they wrapped the season up well enough for me not to be fuming if there wasn't S4.
Ah well. It was a decent anime haha

I hate to say it but since there were no cliffhangers as the previous seasons had and with that "And the story goes on" tag at the end, I think its the series finale for the anime adaptation.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

A movie for vol. 10 or 11, and then season 4 going up to vol. 13 seems doable, but since the volumes from vol. 10+ on have more pages, maybe doing season 4 with vol. 10 and 11, as well as season 5 with vol. 12 and 13 would probably be better.

Another awesome season of Overlord. To all who says Bad CGI etc, please remind yourself that Madhouse didn't had a lot of (spare) time to animate the 3rd season, they basically announced it right after the 2nd season and as far as I can tell, they sure were on the edge of their deadlines...

9/10, enjoying Overlord way too much. I'll see you all back in the 4th season!

wow, so much for that hyped "fight", also the "Player vs Player" title, i thought gazef was a real player like the main character.
i really wished there was decent fight.

season 1 is still the best season for me.

question for people who read the light novel, did the novel ended?
also, what about the player, he still stuck in the game? does he log off of the game? what's is going on?

I thought that it was an ecchi anime and kinda had low expectations, but honestly I'm impressed by the first episode. It really blew me away. I'm hyped for this one. Perfect substitute for Overlord.
