Overlord has an "original" plot of a guy getting stuck in a video game that we "haven't" ever seen since Sword Art Online, apparently the plot itself is not used often enough at all even though its such a wonderful one, so Overlord has to take on the plot and do something to it.

Story 3/10: Plot is the same as Sword Art Online, but Kirito is now a skeleton who is lord of the bad guys, and Asuna is now an AI programmed to love Kirito. The story revolves around how our skeleton tries to act evil to live up to the expectations of his AI servants who have been programmed to love him and loyal to him. The story is boring, slow, dull and never actually achieves anything, there's nothing interesting about it.

Art and sound 4/10: both decent, the only tolerable thing about this anime.

Character 2/10: throughout the story, his character remains boring, he's suppose to be the one of the members of the strongest guild in the game, and he's carefully planning out stuff when he can easily do it with raw power every time, and his AI servants will say that all of his actions are wonderful and have an amazing purpose every time, even though his decisions are just dull and boring.

Enjoyment 1/10: i loved the last episode, because after that i can finally say that i finished this "masterpiece" and never have to touch it again.

Overall 3/10: not recommended for anyone, the only thing thats "new" and "original" in this manga is a boring protagonist who carefully plans out stuff that he can easily do with a snap of a finger, and also he's a bad guy, mostly.
