Overlord is not for shonen lovers. If you are looking for fights in Overlord you will be disappointed. If you think this movie is boring overlord is not for you. Overlord is not about Ainz. Its the closest anime to Game of Thrones. Political intrigue and character development are the strenghts of Overlord. Overlord is not a power fantasy. Ainz is not living a dream but a nightmare. He is condemned to be alone because by nature he is a horrible human being who can not form connection. Ainz is a mad scientist.He is extremely apathetic and he view everything as experiments even his guardians. This is the guy who did not hesitate to edit Albedo. Ainz does not know what love is or he has a twisted view of love. In Overlord Wars are constant. There is no justice. The concept of justice is explored in this movie with Ainz Remedios Neia and Demiurge and the conclusion is the winner is the one who is just. Overlord is a pessimistic book. There is no good guys in Overlord. Even the supposed good guys like the queen Calca enable xenophobia. Brain was a slave trader. All the characters are morally gray in Overlord. There is a lot of nuance. Even people as straight forward as Remedios and Neia have layers to them. Remedios is not only someone who is angry. She is someone Who feels deep guilt and regret and is having a severe break down in front of our eyes. Neia is a complex character looking for justice in her life. Neia is not the naive little girl. She herself is suffering another kind of trauma. She is also a victime of abuse and looking for companionship. This is why she is blind to the acts of Ainz. Ainz is a villain. He is the worst main character and the best at the same time. The plot of this movie is how He is going to use the traumas of Remedios and Neia to establish supremacy. Because Ainz is smart he learned from history its not by fighting that he will be able to rule with an Iron fist. He has to brainwash the people make them willingly submit to avoid rebellions and chaos. Overlord is a World building show with Ainz as a recurring character. There is no main character in Overlord. Ainz can disappear when the author wants to or make him a side character like in the movie which makes it great. The movie covers what is unanimously considered by All Overlord fans to be the best arc of Overlord and Ainz has a minor role. If you did not like this movie you never knew what made Overlord great in the first place. This is the arc culminating to the peak of the series where Political intrigue and tension is at an all time high. If you did not like the movie its better to give up now because from now on there will be no longer any fights in Overlord. It will be dialogue heavy between multiple characters in Season 5 till the end. We are finally reaching the best parts. Dandadan and Jujutsu Kaisen lovers it will be boring for you. Me I cant wait for Season 5.
