If you've liked it you will most likely also enjoy the light novel, so I recommend reading it.

This is why nobody should take that faggot author's demands for a season 4 seriously
I bet the damegami could ride a bicorn without issues.
I really do hope we get a 4th season. I could use more "favorite scenes".

Fluder bowing the ainz was just perfect. Quite the contrast to arche.
Anime sucks Read the light novel
Because anime adaptation is shit.
I want to see what happens next... is not fair
The 3D animation was truly PD otherwise it would be higher up on my list. Sticking to the LN is better.
Good on you Aqua poster. Hope you find enjoyment in this series.
Because Aqua-sama is the strongest in the Isekai cinematic universe
Are you still mad about overchads taking over Aq*a thread that day?
Obviously, that's why he frogposts in three threads simultaneously. Talk about being petty.
The guardians will bow before their new supreme being, Ibileye!
>I want to see what happens next... is not fair
Fund 3 more seasons or the series get it.
Fucking Maruyama. Leaving it like that.
Why the fuck does the author want more of the anime after S3?
He doesn't. He doesn't want to finish Overlord, either.
He wants excuse not to write main LN and write side-stories instead because he's sick of his magna opus and scared of not living up to fan expectations. In AU what-ifs he can to whatever, that must be very liberating.
well shit now I feel kinda bad for him. That being said if he really wants to end it he should BS an ending for it and not give a crap about what the fans think.
That's a lot of otaku boxcutters to dodge.
Probably salt from season 3 being absolute shit
>fan expectations
What kind of expectations can you fuckers possibly have for a third-rate graphomania filled garbage novel series based upon the worst tropes of chink mmorpg crap?
I'm kinda curious.

Overlord is miles above average isekai LN. The amount of discussion worldbuilding and setting generate are testament to that. Subarufags and Aquafags like to brand overlordfags as autistic, but that's just source material being very deep fantasy, with many interesting sideplots, chekhov guns, ancient mysteries and detailed side characters.
TL;DR: Overlord is Japanese LOTR and there's nothing you can do about it.
It's fine, I watched it some time after S3 aired and it doesn't irritate my eyes much. Maybe they smoothed something over in BD idk.
>Overlord is Japanese LOTR
Then where's The Hobbit?
Hilarious, he even has the ring that mustn't fall in evil hands.
Literally the Evileye side story.
BUY RUNIC ARMOR TO COUNTER RUNIC WEAPONS THAT HAVE SOMEHOW FALLEN INTO THE HANDS OF YOUR ENEMIES
>Overlord is miles above average isekai LN.
Which isn't saying much because there is not a single isekai that can be considered a good book. Not even progenitors of said genre like Rally Cry by William Forstchen.
This being said, I tried both KonoSuba and Overlord and KonoSuba is miles better in terms of writing.

Yeah, I remember Tolkien crying about not having enough fan attention and interest in his own creation to finish the last book of Two Towers. I am sure that Overlord will be just as successful of a franchise.
Low IQ bait.
>even*
>not a single isekai that can be considered a good book
This is anime and manga board.
>KonoSuba is miles better in terms of writing.
Nah it's very hollow, I feel like reading script from the anime.
E.g. even for Overlord S1 studio has to cut a lot of stuff out from original, stuff that was too diffiult to adapt or just cutting corners.
When I read Konosuba novels it's 1-to-1 compared with anime adaptation.
It's certainly fun and has pretty deep lore but it's not quite on the level of autistic details and foreshadowing Maruyama invested in his work.
>mmo kingdom
>mmo empire
>mmo village
>mmo dragons
You're objectively wrong, there's nothing MMO about them, they don't even know about levels.
>I remember Tolkien crying
I refuse to believe you're this old.
>not having enough fan attention and interest in his own creation to finish the last book of Two Towers
Well Maruyama has too much.
You can say whatever you want about Overlord but Konosuba’s worbuilding being better? ‘Antagonists’? Just stop it is a gag show and it does what it does well enough but come the fuck on don’t be this delusional like the Overlordfags themselves.
>moving the goalpost
Stop living under a rock and you can discover all sorts of good shows, especially when they're 24/7 thread FOTMs
Light novels (>isekai) are actually /jp/ domain, not Yea Forums. Its also fine to discuss light novels and even live action series here so long as they are distinctly rooted in, or based off of an anime or manga series.
name one good show that currenty has a dedicated thread on Yea Forums
Yes but that fag wouldn't accept LOTR = Overlord and there's no other LN that is on the same level, so
I'm not mad at all. That was like a cool breeze blowing through my hair, I didn't take it personal at all. Aqua isn't a petty goddess so I as her follower can't be either.
Both of you fags are delusional.
>This being said, I tried both KonoSuba and Overlord and KonoSuba is miles better in terms of writing.
Nice bait user. Konosuba has power level inconsistency, retarded battles, poor story telling, poor world building as well as a shallow plot. The power level and retarded battles can be chalked up to comedy though.
>This is an mmo guild house, it has a lot of fetish-fueled cliche-to-the-max NPCs
No, since you're the brainlet that said Konosuba was better than Overlord clearly you didn't read far enough or good enough to even understand the motives behind each creation, as well as the dark undertones. A good example is Shalltear who may or may not have been created just for her creator to fap to since she remembers him just standing there watching her without moving.
>This is an mmo kingdom, it has adventurers guild and a king
He is not in an mmo and it is not an mmo kingdom. Brainlet the adventurers guild was established post Evil deities to deal with monsters and to prevent another catastrophe that would destroy a nation or two. Also the king barely plays a part.
>This is an mmo empire, it is stronger than an mmo kingdom
Again, not an mmo. Also the Empire is stronger because it was cultivated by the Slaine Theocracy, the current Emperor being the best out of all of them that has also been guided by Fluder.
>This is an mmo village, it exist to be raided
Again, not an mmo. In any fantasy with monsters, villages are the ones at risk since they lack city walls. Also if you're referring to Carne village being raided then you clearly don't know why, or whom was responsible and what were their aims.
>These are super strong mmo dragons, they are antagonists
Again, not an mmo. Also in nearly every fantasy dragons are the most powerful and Overlord established they were strong ever since Volume 1.
>Hear that literal Lovecraft reference is in Overlord.
>Turns out it's Shub-Niggurath's 'young'.
>Look it up.
What the actual fuck. This is a disgrace.
I should have known though. A fucking Isekai would absolutely be as low effort as they can.
It's almost like one was supposed to be a comedy with a slice of scum adventuring on the top and the other - misunderstood villain unwitting world domination quest with a slice of comedy on top, or something!
Are you disappointed with Nyaruko too?
I didn't feel much for that show. It started off feeling like it was going to be written by someone who actually read Lovecraft and wanted to make a parody of all things about it, but it just wound up feeling like it was written by someone who read a few wiki articles.
I don't wanna sound as smug as this guy but i have to agree on the worldbuilding part.
I haven't read a single japans work, Isekai or otherwise that even comes close.

So, not an LN board? Then take your own advice and go Yea Forums
>Nah it's very hollow, I feel like reading script from the anime.
It is entertaining, a cute little story that doesn't take itself too seriously.
>It's certainly fun and has pretty deep lore but it's not quite on the level of autistic details and foreshadowing Maruyama invested in his work.
Dude, stop. Neither of two have any "deep lore" or autistic level of details, but one of them is proud of it, the other is trying to mask it with pure graphomania.
>You're objectively wrong, there's nothing MMO about them, they don't even know about levels.
Well gee, every (literally)NPC operates on level-based system with skills, but since they are unaware of it (wink wink) it doesn't exist. The structure of kingdom itself is pure MMO-garbage. Literally WoW tier, with one village (Carne\Goldshire in WoW) supporting the giant city (E-Rantel\Stormwind in WoW) despite having no agricultural development around it.
There is close to zero details on how the kingdom operates, how is it divided politically and economically, where are the major trade routes, what is the kingdom producing\selling\buying and who are its trade partners, how are traders organized. Is there a banking system, what are the major currencies employed by it, what is their exchange rate. How is the justice system organized, who operates the logistics, are there any professional guilds aside from their generic MMO adventurers guild. What are the major noble families here, what are their histories, why are they in power, are they involved in any conflicts with each other or other classes of society. What religious groups does the place have, are there any official religions and why they are here, are there any banned ones. What are the languages and dialects of this kingdom.
Very few of these questions can be answered in a very vague\speculative way after reading the books.
>Neither of two have any "deep lore" or autistic level of details
Stopped reading there. You don't know what you're talking about.
2nd Rando here.
Are you actually trying to say that Both Overloard and Konusuba has no lore?
Because that's just plain wrong, both from a reader and a character perspective.
Thanks for marking your own post as a bait, so I wont take it.
I will only point out that
> the adventurers guild was established post Evil deities to deal with monsters and to prevent another catastrophe that would destroy a nation or two.
Is literally the most generic RPG plot you could have ever imagined, congratz.
>There is close to zero details on how the kingdom operates,
Feudal system. Mayor is appointed to manage cities, Fiefs have rough population registers to collect annual taxes. Villages have limited permits to come and go in and out of cities to trade their produce e.g. Enri gets one from Carne chief.
Frontier villages are exempt from annual war conscription but not from tax.
>how is it divided politically and economically,
Do you want a map or something? Strongest nobles from Noble and Royal faction said to have big and prosperous domains safe in the heartland, away from the Katze Plains.
>where are the major trade routes
Look up the fucking map: it's said trade with Dwarves and Empire is dwindling while Re-Estize trades even with ST that tries to false-flag it, probably with all neighbors HRK and Republic too.
>what is the kingdom producing\selling\buying and who are its trade partners
They're agrarian country with bigass underground drug dealing industry that is fucking up Empire, which is why both Empire and ST want Re-Estize gone, consumed by Baharuth.
Villages try to get by but country is failing due to annual Empire war sapping it's strength.
>how are traders organized.
Aqua has potential deep lore if you read into her behavior for more than a second, but like her cult it might be best to just be happy she's happy and not bother her too much.
>I haven't read a single japans work, Isekai or otherwise that even comes close
Read more then. Overlord is written by a veteran D&D player and it shows. His world is big but not particularly refined or well-thought-out, and he relies too much on typical D&D/isekai tropes. 12 Kingdoms, LotGH, Shin Sekai Yori, GitS, PsychoPass, FMA, and Aria all come to mind as examples of superior world building.
I'm disappointed it ended
Nyaruko was annoying and overbearing even for my tastes but I still found myself rooting for her
>how are traders organized
There are merchant and merchant guilds, they flee E-Rantel in vol9.
>Is there a banking system
Vol7 has deposit plaques that work as debit cards, trade with countries is made by platinum coins that have value beyond their weight in precious metal.
>what are the major currencies employed by it, what is their exchange rate.
Do you really want the copper\silver\gold shit? Well vol5-6 has some in Sebas monologue about platinum coins. But that knowledge is generally only useful for a story starting with low-level adventures like Slave Labyrinth.
>How is the justice system organized,
Stefan is Re-Estize civil officer which is inspector, he speaks about courts of law too. There are guards maintaining order in cities and patrolling some of the most used roads, last bit is thanks to Renner insisting on that policy to increase travel safety.
>who operates the logistics
What do you mean who operates logistics?
That's not fucking amazon or WWII supply chain, that's medieval feudal fantasy kingdom.
Each domain is managed by a lord who center it's efforts around whatever he has e.g. in vol10 Philip domain said to only have veggies while he's lusting over neighboring lands with silver mines.
>are there any professional guilds aside from their generic MMO adventurers guild.
Magic Guild, Sebas buys scrolls there. There are underground organizations too.
>What are the major noble families here
Raeven character is pretty fleshed out.
Lakuys family has two adamantite adventurers teams: Red Drop and Blue Rose. Both are founding cornerstones of Re-Estize and held several relics, presumably left over from the time ST helped to found the country.
Aqua is the Goddess of all isekai and is the cause of all transmigration and rebirth.
>LotGH, GitS, PsychoPass, FMA

And others are just random el-blorghistan names from a word generator.

As expected, nothing more than a vague "well, uhh, there are villages so they must have some crops to trade, right?" and "yeah, dwarf like money, they are kinda trading but not too much, yeaah.."
>No organisation to deal with monsters

Sasuga retard. It was 300 years the adventurer's guild formation that humans were finally able to come out into the open because of the 6 great gods that favoured humans. Hard times create strong men >> Strong men create good times >> Good times create weak men >> Weak men create hard times
Sasuga Maruyama and his 5D chess.
It's almost like you can create comedy and have it professionally published but still make elementary school mistakes.
>what are their histories, why are they in power
Lakuys family is in power because they have talented individuals among them and were bestowed powerful gear which means a lot in NW.
>are they involved in any conflicts with each other or other classes of society.
There are decadent nobles who fell victim to Eight Fingers blackmail and now do their bidding, pushing favorable candidate for the crown.
Some nobles sell info to Empire.
Marquis Raeven maintains appearance of neutrality while secretly supporting the crown.
>What religious groups does the place have
Re-Estize has 4 Great Gods religion, ST has 6 Great Gods religion, they're not on good terms with each other because Re-Estize refuses to acknowledge those 2 extra gods. There is Buddhism/Daoism and it's followers like Silver Canary monk but it's followers are shunned by every church.
>are there any official religions and why they are here
There are and they are in NW because literal fucking Gods walked and still walk its land.
>are there any banned ones
Necromancy isn't approved though one of 6 Great Gods of theocracy is God of Death.
>What are the languages and dialects of this kingdom.
Someone used WCI now all languages are understand by everyone, but context depends on individual understanding e.g. a plebeian would hear absolute gibberish when hearing bard singing in different language because he has no context and doesn't know fine details about the story or culture.
Don't reply to him please. Clearly autism.
Bait-sama
Are you complaining that things are named simply? You don't need to make up dumb words just to apply labels to things.

How many time did Aqua took the Dragon Emperor's Draconic Cock before he was offed by the Players?
>disregards every novel and books because he hates isekai
Good to know you have no say in anything.
Isekai is automatically well written in world building, characterization, development and plot since it's a new world and it all falls in line by simply writing the story out.
>tropes
Every written work has those and cliches, using that as an argument doesn't work.
>cmon guys
Fuck you. Speak like a human being.
>pretending that it is not just a shitty MMORPG?
It's a natural world with it's natural unique magic and creatures that is being corrupted by infuence of MMO.

Not an argument.

etc. they have proper names.
>"Noble holy kingdom"
Holy Roble Kingdom.
>Annual war
>Stop it, I think I am losing IQ by just reading this crap.
You don't have any IQ to begin with retard: Empire is forcing Re-Estize to defend each year during harvest, pulling peasants from the fields and worsening food situation with every year.
That's a valid strategy when you don't want to fight a nation that has 10 times your population.
>Baby's first fanfic-tier.
Use proper language and arguments.
There are three factions that are named for convenience of their allegiance
>Noble Faction
>Royal Faction
>Neutral Faction
Of fucking course nobody calls themselves that it's just a way to referring to a group of people by their allegiance.
>As expected, nothing more than a vague "well, uhh, there are villages so they must have some crops to trade, right?
Google agrarian country. It's literally focuses on producing food and, if possible, exporting it for profit.
Some noble domains have precious metals industry e.g. silver mines mentioned in vol10.
>yeah, dwarf like money,
Dwarves are a dying nation there's few hundred thousands of them left and they were being cornered by underground ratmoles who Ainz exterminated.
Dwarves were craftsmen proficient in runesmithing, they run limited trade with Re-Estize and Empire with runic-enchanted items being their main goods. They mine precious metals as well as "caloric stones" which are kind of ore that releases a lot of energy from it when deformed or heated, kind of like coal.
Nah don't.
Someone can't be this misinformed and narberal, user. I refuse to believe it.
>Every written work has those and cliches, using that as an argument doesn't work.
Works use tropes or cliches in better or worse ways. Overlord uses them poorly, its unoriginality is astounding. That doesn't make it not fun or not worth reading, but it isn't good by any means.
>look at the fucking square-shaped counties
There's not a single square in there retard.
Who the fuck is the dragon emperor? and why do dragoncucks hate it so much? The exchange between Ainz and the undead dragon lord was weird
The Dragon Emperor was responsible for all the WCI isekai.
>Do you really want the copper\silver\gold shit?
Oh no no no, sweet child. I don't want "copper\silver\gold" shit.
I want a list of coins with description at least on the level of "a medium sized well made silver coin with relatively high silver content that was issued in whatever year and is priced as 1 and 3/4 of another silver coin that is also pretty well made and has high amount of silver in it, but was dropping in value steadily because of a shortage in supply caused by a rival trader's alliance hiring a bunch of mercenary groups to disrupt the production\transportation of said coin" causing it lose favour of big merchant companies that rely on a steady supply of large quantities of coins they operate in.
>Lakuys family
Where is their family tree, who are their main sub-families and what are their relationships with other...
Oh wait
>because they have talented individuals among them and were bestowed powerful gear which means a lot in NW
They are just a generic MMO family that has lots of epic gear and high leveled characters.
No further questions.
>Re-Estize has 4 Great Gods religion, ST has 6 Great Gods religion
I am sure you will be able to name me the structure of religious organizations dedicated to each god, their ranks and relationship with populace. The taxes they pay, the taxes they are exempt from.
Oh, and of course you will be able to tell me how did these gods came into existence, what are the philosophical beliefs behind them and such.
And I hope the explanation will not be "Well they were players from an MMORPG game" cause that would be pretty fucking embarrassing, you trying to say that the world isn't just a shitty cliche of one of such games, of course.
Oh so we are talking about a tribal theocratic society that calls itself a kingdom, has feudalism(!) and performs annual sacrifices with accordance to its religion? Is this what the generic MMO kingdom from overshit is, you fucking lying cunt?
>you have to be original and unique and never use a single thing anyone else has ever done
Nice job outing yourself as a brainlet, you can stop damage controlling now.
>I want a list of coins with description at least on the level of "a medium sized well made silver coin with relatively high silver content that was issued in whatever year and is priced as 1 and 3/4 of another silver coin that is also pretty well made and has high amount of silver in it, but was dropping in value steadily because of a shortage in supply caused by a rival trader's alliance hiring a bunch of mercenary groups to disrupt the production\transportation of said coin" causing it lose favour of big merchant companies that rely on a steady supply of large quantities of coins they operate in.
What is this, Spice and Wolf?
Is this explained in detail anywhere? I don't remember anything about the dragon emperor in the LNs and he was just barely mentioned in this sidestory, feels there's something I'm missing.
>I want every detail written down
Too bad no work has this for everything in their story, try again.
See, life and the afterlife is one big Isekai. That is the joke. That is what the characters in Isekai Quartet are slowly piecing together, besides Aqua who probably knows this.
Even if you believe nothing happens after death you go from the world of "stuff" to the world of "absolutely nothing"
Rick and Morty is an Isekai. Madoka is an Isekai.
Slayers the anime is a reverse Isekai in the sense that in season 3 an entity from another dimension invades. That Demon Lord working at WacDonalds is Isekai. Inception is an Isekai. Sword Art Online and full dive VR is an Isekai. Tony Soprano in his Coma is an Isekai. Tripping balls and fighting windmills, is too, an Isekai.
The question with Isekai is that if the world you end up in is one worth staying, protecting, or leaving. Or leaving to protect.
>I want a list of coins with description at least on the level of
Sucks to be you: even LOTR doesn't have it.
It's also not Spice and Wolf story, read something else.
>Where is their family tree, who are their main sub-families and what are their relationships with other...
Read history, fantasy never bothers.
>They are just a generic MMO family that has lots of epic gear and high leveled characters.
They're a family of very valuable military assets. Like Gazef, CD and Fluder is.
>I am sure you will be able to name me the structure of religious organizations dedicated to each god
I am sure you would name 10 fantasy novels with such fine religious details that are not, in fact, centered about religion. Because Overlord isn't.
You fuckers decided to list worldbuilding as a strong point of your garbage novel series, not me.
Also everything I said about is present in, for example, WHFB.
And they don't claim good worldbuilding as one of their main selling points.
So get fucked.
>performs annual sacrifices with accordance to its religion?
Are you literally an imbecile?
You were told by like three anons that Kingdom doesn't have a choice in a matter of annual war, Empire forces them to field troops to defend.
We've had overlord threads for 5 years, also you wasted your experience by watching the anime instead of reading the much better LN
>valuable military assets
>Gazef
Again with this MMO thinking.
A dude with good stats that can slash around with his sword is not a military asset. A well-equipped, trained and organized regiment of soldiers that has good logistics and foraging capabilities is.
But again, we are talking about a universe that doesn't bother with such things.

Why did this shitposter not get banned yet? He has been doing the same shit for weeks in multiple threads at the same time.
>Again with this MMO thinking.
>It's a natural world with it's natural unique magic and creatures that is being corrupted by infuence of MMO
>A dude with good stats that can slash around with his sword is not a military asset.
He is. When he's wearing Kingdoms 5 Treasures Gazef alone is worth 10000 men.
Yes, individual difference in strength is far more pronounced in fantasy than in IRL, magic kind of does that.
Nobody could defeat Witch King or Sauron in the field either and had to resort to exploiting their weak spot.
Why do you want to read about boring shit where people do war the usual IRL way?
>A well-equipped, trained and organized regiment of soldiers that has good logistics and foraging capabilities is.
Certainly.
Which is why Gazef sucks absolute balls of a regiment of well-equipped, trained and organized Sunlit Scripture magical soldiers.
Because in Overlord being able to take 10k common soldiers alone doesn't mean you don't meet your match on the battlefield, be it in magic or might.
>It's a MMO game

Don't backpedal out of your miserable fail retard.
You were told that "annual war' is a strategy employed by hostile state to sap Re-Estize military strength.
You were also told that despite you dumb ass being totally wrong - the kind of annual religious war you retard had in mind, actually happened IRL
At first I couldn't believe it but the LN was worse than the anime, I guess reading is believing.

Even if Aqua is stronger than Ainz she isn't smart enough to finish him off.

>He is. When he's wearing Kingdoms 5 Treasures Gazef alone is worth 10000 men.
>Yes, individual difference in strength is far more pronounced in fantasy than in IRL, magic kind of does that.
It is more pronounced in RPGs and MMORPGs because these are made with numbers in mind, numbers like HP, MP, levels and skills.
>Nobody could defeat Witch King or Sauron in the field either and had to resort to exploiting their weak spot.
This is where you are completely wrong, and this illustrates perfectly the difference between a fantasy book and a shitty RPG fanfic.
Both were defeated in the field, by someone that is considered to be "inferior" to them, because Tolkien had zero consideration for power levels and stats in general. He was writing a story, not a char-build exercise for a DnD module.
>Why do you want to read about boring shit where people do war the usual IRL way?
Because there is a million and one ways you can wage a war IRL and there are billions of ways to use these as a basis for your own fantasy warfare.
Or you can just go "I cast big spell, everybody dies" but then I will call you out on your laziness and faggotry.
>Which is why Gazef sucks absolute balls of a regiment of well-equipped, trained and organized Sunlit Scripture magical soldiers.
Nothing about them was well-organized and their equipment is high level gear from an MMO game.
So again, you are only reinforcing my point.
More gangbangs of Staff-chan and Ainz when?
Sometimes you lose because the fucker you're fighting gets a lucky hit in, or you slip on the snow.
The Saxon Chronicles has the protagonist, who is greatly outclassed, basically beat this unstoppable beast of a man with a greataxe because the Dane he is fighting has chopped up so many people that he ends up slipping on the blood he spilt.
The protag is hailed as a hero for this feat but it's all because the dude he was fighting lost his footing.
Maybe Bernard Cornwall was making a thematic point of "He who sheds blood shall die via blood", but really it's more like "he who slips in the middle of a shield wall fight is probably gonna get murked."
>It is more pronounced
No, not more.
Balrogs, Witch King, Gandalf still exist in LOTR adaptation timeline.
Individually no amount of "trained soldiers" can stop them.
It's normal for fantasy, give up or read something else.
>with numbers in mind, numbers like HP, MP, levels and skills.
Except nobody in NW have those values, at best they have vague understanding of how much magical reserves enemy or themselves are left.
Sure Ainz and other Nazarick denizens do but that's because they're from MMO.
>Both were defeated in the field, by someone that is considered to be "inferior" to them
Then read Silmarillion.
>Because there is a million and one ways you can wage a war IRL
Great, read a fiction about contemporary war with conventional weapons. Or a documentary.
>there are billions of ways to use these as a basis for your own fantasy warfare.
I am gingerly waiting good examples of magical warfare.
>Nothing about them was well-organized
Nothing about that is true.
>Influenced nobles to strip Gazef of his best gear
>Forged 3rd party military uniforms for a false-flag
>Burned down frontier villages, knowing full well they're in Royal domain and Gazef would be dispatched
>Encircled the village while using population as hostages in case Gazef decides to book it
>Defeated him at range with magic and summons
>their equipment is high level gear from an MMO game.
So again, read the LN retard you're wrong on every fucking turn.
Picrelated have Yggdrasil MMO gear, Black Scripture.
Sunlit Scripture are not worthy of Yggdrasil equipment theirs is just normal uniformed enchanted equipment made locally in ST.
Stop replying to the shitposter and he will go away.
...
Ainz seems pretty autistic being the only person still playing a shitty mmo after the entire player base left.
Soon.
Nah I like him making an ass of himself.
You'd think there'd be more people to join him just for sentimental purposes.
How much would steroids enhance the physical strength of human warriors?
Not enough for Albedo.
Show off your ass all you want, Ainz won't ever touch it. Not even in your head cannon.
This map is triggering my autism
>Already touched tits
>Several times is so curious - he's about to give in despite having no dick
Yeah author is just afraid of picrelated
Shalltear!
>having no dick
The difference between himself and other players that day was that he stayed inside his base waiting all alone for his friends to log in and see the game off while the remaining ones (including the GMs) were probably running around the server butt naked throwing fireworks with the mobs being disabled.
>Balrogs, Witch King, Gandalf still exist in LOTR adaptation timeline.
>Individually no amount of "trained soldiers" can stop them.
Balrogs were killed by simple elven soldiers. Gandalf could be killed by a single stab to his chest, even from a hobbit like Bilbo
Witch King has a prophesy on him that prevents him from dying to any "man" which means a shitton of people could have taken him out.
From any non-human to just a random accident.
>Except nobody in NW have those values, at best they have vague understanding of how much magical reserves enemy or themselves are left.
Wrong.
>Then read Silmarillion.
I did, I also read all of publicly available Tolkien's letter on LOTFR
>I am gingerly waiting good examples of magical warfare.
Witcher, warhammer fantasy battles.
>Nothing about that is true.
Everything about that is true.
>Influenced nobles to strip Gazef of his best gear
Because it is a fucking MMO game and muh magical gear matters
>Forged 3rd party military uniforms for a false-flag
>medieval period
>military uniforms
I laughed at that moment, yes.
>Burned down frontier villages, knowing full well they're in Royal domain and Gazef would be dispatched
Which is retarded beyond any reason because a frontier that regularly (because of stupid MMO crap - even annually) endures enemy attack would have fortifications and garrisons of their own.
>Encircled the village while using population as hostages in case Gazef decides to book it
Which no sane military commander would have ever done. But since he is a retarded NPC from a game, sure.
>Defeated him at range with magic and summons
>their equipment is high level gear from an MMO game.
Exactly so.
Yawn.

You're fucking up canon so I will stop replying here until you educate yourself on a topic of discussion.

>replying with pictures
Is this you conceding defeat?
Damn it feels good to show a whole thread of overshit-fags their place.
I bet they turned Nazarick library upside down and held countless rituals to appease the ever silent Supreme Beings by dressing up completely in maid outfits, doing sport festivals, signing karaoke, cooking Japanese cuisine.
Those of them with weaker spirits would often gave up during those rituals, unable to contain their despair, flop to the floor and start bawling their eyes out. Those with stronger faith would console them and preach how they should stay strong and believe, surely their devotion one day will show fruit and Supreme Beings would once again return to them.
Later it would turn into witch-hunts for those who didn't perform the appeasing rituals seriously enough or made mistakes.
I did. Its shit.

Yeah after the balrog killed like a couple hundred of them. In 1v1 no normal elf would stand a chance.

To retards who lack canon knowledge but argue anyway - yes.
It completely shits itself in the third season to the point of becoming unwatchable.
Imagine being this mad over Albedo posting
Overlordfags simply can't defend their anime. Maybe they should move their threads to Yea Forums?
No, i was just saying that if you liked the anime despite its shitty visuals youll enjoy the LN since it has more content and none of the visul problems. The illustrations are beautiful actually
Yes, I reread the novels before each volume comes out, but I couldn't finish watching S3 in one sitting. Had to get back to it during one of the longest content voids in the series.
They really dropped the ball in S3 like nobody wanted to animate anything.
>imagine being this dense
Anyone has a chance, and this chance is limited by physical reality of Balrogs being huge fuckers with fiery swords, not their level or HP.
In a shitty fanfic RPG universe a single pedobait loli could have oneshotted a Balrog because she is like level 999 elder goddes with [grasp dick] spell that costs a lot of mana but she wears epic [amulet of fuck your mother] that gives her two times the maximum amount of mana! So cool!
Well thank you for conceding defeat, but I really expected more resistance.
its the equivalent of have sex
Your agreement with success of defense is unnecessary.
dammit bros
I havent felt this bullied since school
All living beings have critical hits retard. A sneak stab to the back of the neck would kill Gazef.
Where do you stab a skeleton? It has no weakness.
They even look like they were designed by a first year chink student in an arts college for his "modern culture in video games" project.
Jesus Christ.
Still better than Sagqua
Nah they're glorious, I feel zero shame for liking their designs and I don't give a fuck what you think of them or me.
Aqua you come from a book too
>All living beings have critical hits
In a video game? Sure.
You can also say that a critical hit to a skeleton would be you breaking his bones causing him to lose a limb or two.
But since one of the worst RPG systems stated that undead enemies should be immune to critical attacks and this shitty universe is totally not a plagiarized copy of that universe and, in fact, has nothing to do with RPGs at all - sure.
pretty sure you can crit skellys with blunt objects and holy magic

It's mediocre.
It felt underwhelming compared to vol 9 and 10.
Sure, there were some plot developments like dragon airlines, 10000 year plan, rune weapon industry, but it can't rival with previous volumes.
The rest was just adventuring without much tension.

I think Overlord is one of the WORST animes I've ever seen. Yea Forums always has such shit taste. You weebs are part of the reason modern anime is so terrible because you only like the worst shit.
Overlord was nothing but an otaku basement dweller loser circle jerk for low wavelength beta cucks.
It still gets me mad.
>low wavelength
What do you mean by this?
also it is an Isekai which is the worst most generic shit ever.
You can see that Maruyama really does not fucking like the anime director.

Originally he was just a savage human with a talent for magic.
Through this talent and his desire to live he managed to absorb a life of his fellow tribesman, extending his own beyond mortal limits. This allowed him to further his studies of Shyish and other Winds of Magic, which eventually resulted in him being one of the strongest mages around (No one really challenged him, and he himself had a character akin that to Kira, quiet life and such)
He wasn't really that strong either, the moment he decided to change his shut-in lifestyle he got BTFOd by Sigmar, and then again, and then again, and again..

Actually it was one of the most combat heavy volumes, you speedreader. There were just no stakes this time. If Ainz would fuck up, they would only lose the runecraft deal, and nobody in Nazarick even had any expectations from Ainz to begin with. And this time there were no sides of the conflict that would act as an underdog to root for.
Maybe you should go back to reading shounens?

And then one of (you) even fucked up by saying that
>creatures in NW like totally don't have any stats or HP bruh
Which I BTFOd by posting one of the official fucking charsheets for these "totally normal" non-RPG citizens of a fantasy world, that have HP and stats.
Really makes you think.

I'll bite.
They are only shown with stats after nazarick analyzes them.
It doesn't matter that much either since despite the HP thing if you get your body parts cut off or lose blood you still die despite having full HP.
You know Nazarick gets those stats by appraising the natives and make and approximation in Yggdrasil stats right?
>I haven't read the LNs but please fuck my ass
Why do you even try to argument about it when you don't even know anything about the show? You are the definition of ignorant
Just be honest with yourselves and admit that the reason you fucks like this franchise is not because it has uh such a deep story or great worldbuilding and shit.
You like RPG elements, you like power faggotry, you like cute kinky waifus with a fuckton of fetishes, you like unnecessary edginesses and memes.
That's it, stop pretending.
I did. Its shit.
>no corresponding race in Yggdrasil
>has HP
Not even going to bother taking a screenshot.
Ask the author why he decided not to put full stats for some of the characters, whilst still giving them other RPG elements like levels.
We have already established that some people of NW have HP, whether they were in Yggdrasil or not.
> if you get your body parts cut off or lose blood you still die despite having full HP.
How the fuck would you even have full HP after getting your body part removed?
Also, not the point of discussion.

From memory Overlord is about a guy getting his mind stuck in a shut down MMO, right? And as the last player he becomes supreme skeleton king or something.
What stakes do they use to make people care about what's happening? In SAO it was the whole "if you die in the game you die in real life thing". Is it the same here? And if only the Overlord is a real person why should I care? All the other characters are literal NPCs aren't they? Or are they true AI?

He is not in a game.
>What stakes do they use to make people care about what's happening?
The unknown, hence his caution.
>All the other characters are literal NPCs aren't they? Or are they true AI?
Not AI, It's already been disproven. Also use your brain a-little what sort of machine would be able to simulate thoughts, desires, as well as actions of billions of people as well as an entire universe without building an underground bunker to house this mega server of a machine that could very well take up miles of space and in need of extreme cooling. You should stop applying kindergarten SAO logic here.

The quality this franchise deserves, really.
Based animators from MadHouse decided not to spend any effort on it.
Imagine being one of the best studies that made countless great shows, adapted some of the best works the medium has, and having to work on this garbage.
That's why it is full of animator's subtle messages like here You may think that the character has a lewd blushing expression, whilst in reality the animator himself is looking through her eyes full of sadness and despair. Its like he is apologizing to all the fans of the studio, asking them to bear with it for the moment because that is what corporate bigwigs decided MadHouse should be doing.
you guys know how out of all the franchises that konosuba interacts with, the most consistant one is when aqua always picks a fight with ainz?
i think that mentality is reflected in aquafags who shitpost on Yea Forums

He's right you know. Ainz is a shitty protagonist who relies too heavily on RPG logic, it's almost laughable. Now Momon on the other hand manages to be a beast in combat, and doesn't rely on shitty RPG game mechanics to win in a fight. He uses his brute strength, and masterful swordsmanship to cut down his enemies. Overlord would be much better if Momon was the main protagonist, and none of you guys can deny it.
i admittedly like ridiculous edge, and the waifus. main reason why i enjoy the series so much
>You are absolutely NOT allowed to have fun at our expense!

>Overlord is miles above average isekai LN.
to be fair your average isekai is in the same tier that yout average fanfic, AKA the lowest of the bars in writting media
Yes, I agree with you about the rest of the genre being worse than trash.
Overlord is in fact much better than Lord of the Rings.
Harry Potter is an isekai and I'd consider Overlord better than Harry Potter.
>of all isekai
most "gods" are merely sysadmins
>he hasn't watched Ple Ple Pleiades
fucking warhammer 40k is isekai if you go to that rhetoric
Reminder that Solution and Lupu are best maids.
It's really not. It has nearly all the bad tropes isekai LNs are known for. The side plots are almost never brought up again and the main plot is almost completely inconsequential. Even the world building feels like so much set dressing and isn't very cohesive.
>I win, you lose

This kills the Overlord shitters. LNs are almost universally horrible and Overlord is no exception. It's a wish fulfillment Isekai with muh epik just according to keikaku protagonist. Saying "read the LNs" is the same as saying "I'm underage and have seen less than 200 anime".

Stop phoneposting, retard.
Does it get better in s2 or something cuz I thought season was trash. Especially compared to other isekai. He wasn't even all that "evil". Re:zero, Better darker story. Konosuba funnier. Slime more original. How not to summon a demonlord is Better softcore. Like literally every isekai is better than it in someway. Idk explain to me how it's good or really enjoyable.
It gets better in the LN, and even then season 2 is the lowpoint of the series

You're worse than the shonenchildren. At least they don't hide their shittyness behind "j-just read the LN bruh! I swear it's good"
Uwah I'm retard.....
Vol?
The light novels are typically better, I wont get lost in them? I'm new to the game and have stuck to anime only so far.
>I samefagged ‘I win’ so that means I win
Cringe
1-5, and I am not going to spend my time reading more because they have been getting progressively worse (and its not like the initial premise is really good by itself) which is to be expected from an inexperienced author that had an idea he liked very much, a self-insert character he dreamed about, and an array of fetishes.
Once he is through the "phase of excitement" about his new work, he really has no idea of what to do next, going all over the place with zero consistency or inspiration.
Ain't even gonna bother with a screenshot :^)
This.
Only 5?? Oh well...
>people complain that Overlord is nothing but a self insert power fantasy
>Nazarick stops becoming the main focus after the first three arcs
>story is mostly told from the perspective of inhabitants of the NW
>people complain because the lack of Ainz
You can't please everyone it seems. Overlord is interesting because of it's dynamic contrast between the perspectives of the NW, and Nazarick. Neither are particularly interesting on their own. But seeing the two interact is what really makes following this series so fun. It can simultaneously be a grim dark fantasy story, and a dark comedy at the same time. Of course those who have never read the LN, or only watched the butchered anime adaptation wouldn't understand.
Congratulations, it took you five volumes to figure out it just isn't for you.
>1-5
How did you make it past the prologue with the crippling autism you've been showing off all day? it clearly wasn't for you.
It seems you are the one samefagging!
Best part? You won't be able to prove otherwise because anyone can shop a screenshot in less than a minute.
I have explained my reasons not to go with it.
If five fucking books is not enough for an author
to make his story interesting or engaging - this story is not worth reading.
To put this into perspective, 5 volumes is comparable to the amount of pages of all LOTR trilogy, and Tolkien's language is much more sophisticated, causing him to spend more time on descriptions and other not-so-relevant for the story things.
Let that sink in.
Thanks, but what I figured out is that its just a bad story.
I am a voracious reader, It took me only a couple of evenings really.
Now please present us with your credentials that allow you to diagnose autism with nothing more than a collection of posts on Yea Forums.
Otherwise you are just being petty and angry losing the debate.
>having to read 5 volumes to decide whether or not it's any good
Looks to me like it caught your interest for quite awhile user.
Don't deny the fact you enjoyed the first couple of volumes.
>It seems you are the one samefagging!
>Ain't even gonna bother with a screenshot :^)
why do people start from the first volume? the third season of anime ends at 9, so shouldn't people start at 10?
As I've said
>I am a voracious reader, It took me only a couple of evenings really.
It is easy for me to consume books and sometimes I can consume whole series without even getting all that invested into them.
My goal with this series was to see what's this isekai stuff is all about, are there any differences from the classic western stories about people being brought into a completely different magical place (Like Alice in Wonderland, Wizard of Oz or Gulliver's Travels) and is it any good, like the stories I've mentioned.
My enjoyment of the series has ended when the author started to describe the New World because of how stupid and unimaginative it is. I don't really want to invest into another(bad) version of Faerun, because of how many times I have already seen all of this crap. The fact that now it is heavily infested with RPG elements only adds to the problem.
Good for you! Because it wouldn't have proven anything!
Now (I hope) you see my point :^)
For you maybe it's not interesting, but there's still people who read it until vol 13...
>Best part? You won't be able to prove otherwise because anyone can shop a screenshot in less than a minute.
You don't even need to shop it
>I-It's better in the LN
>T-trust me guys
Pathetic. You Overlordfags are no different than LNfags. Do you guys know that SAOfags say the exact same thing?
There are people who dress themselves in full latex costumes and submerge into septic tanks full of shit, and no they are not doing it because its their job.
Well, neither do I.
>doesn't like RPG elements
>enjoyed the first three volumes despite having the most RPG mechanics
>was most interested in generic isekai aspect
>dropped it as soon as it began to develop the NW
Yeah, I can tell you're just a seething autist who thinks his opinion matters. Just admit you like generic isekai trash user. Overlord only became interesting as soon as the world became more fleshed out.
You can settle for trash user. I literally don't care whether or not you enjoyed the anime adaption. Your opinion when it comes to the LN is worthless.
Are you describing yourself?
He's given us a taste, now I want the full course. Vol 14 when!
>what I figured out is that its just a bad story
Fuck man. I figured out Shield Hero was shit minutes into the first episode. And here you are reading five volumes just to determine that you don't like Overlord. After investing that much time into it, you felt the need to rant about it, huh?
From what I've read until now you sound sick of fantasy and decided to pick up yet another one up and an Isekai one at that expecting a renewed experience. And it's fine if it's not what you expected, one can acknowledge that.
But acting like you know absolutely everything about the story when you just admitted yourself to only have read up to volume 5 (from where the world building starts picking up) makes you look even worse than the speedreaders that plague the Overlord threads.
Just letting you know that all translated overlord novels including the side ones all together come out to about 1.5 million English words.
Brainlets not welcomed.
>doesn't like RPG elements
>enjoyed the first three volumes despite having the most RPG mechanics
>was most interested in generic isekai aspect
As I have said, I wanted to see what Isekai genre is all about, I have never read a book that actively uses RPG\MMORPG mechanics in it, because even World of Warcraft novels are not doing it.
Very first chapters of first volume were interesting and original to me just because of that, and because I have quite a frame of reference on fantasy and recreational books in general I felt the passion the author had for his work.
It all ended when he
>began to develop the NW
Because the New World is a very boring, generic and illogical fantasy place, and a person can only tolerate such places for the first hundred times that he has seen them.
By then RPG elements turned from "that cutesy feature" into "oh for fuck's sake, is this really how it is going to play out?"
And by the general feeling, the author himself lost the initial passion he had, going into "filler" mode where descriptions prevail over story.
Any opinion is worth exactly what you can make of it. If you are unable to make anything out of my opinion - that is your problem, and it will not prevent me from sharing my opinion with this thread.
I.e deal with it.
Nah im describing UR MUM xDDDD
For the third time, I have invested two evenings into it (and I've been transporting shit for my corp on my jump freighter in EVE at the same time so its not like I've spent my time just on Overlord, btw I am doing the same thing right now) and it has helped me to form an opinion on genre itself, which is the most positive thing that came out of it.
Again, this crap
>Dude you just have to keep reading, I swear it will get better later!
is not an argument worthy of mentioning or refuting.
Mum? Mummy?
Yes, I am describing Imhotep, the high priest of Thoth that turned himself into a mummy!
>speedreader thinks he has an opinion
Are you really trying to use my ability to consume information at a superior speed to shame me?
You haven't thought this through, have you.
>I-I swear I only invested two evenings into it
Sure thing user. I'm sure you skimming the pages has given you such an amazing opinion on the series as a whole. Oh wait, you never finished it? Also, your opinion is absolute shit? Try finding some real criticisms next time buddy. If you don't like fantasy, don't read a fantasy story.
>he thinks speedreading is a skill
This thread is full of my criticisms, that none of you guys managed to counter.
>you don't like fantasy
I dislike bad and boring fantasy.
>Dude you just have to keep reading
Don't put words into my mouth, I was pointing it out not telling you what to do.
Don't expect me to take your opinion seriously if you half ass it and only skim trough books, If I'm going to shit on RE:Zero for example I'm going to read/catch up and tell them why at least based on knowledge and not feelings.
I'm a complete aquafag and overlord is pretentious shit for faggots but the pictures of aqua getting #BONED are hilarious
Give examples of "good fantasy" then.
>This thread is full of my criticisms
That explains why it's shit.
>I dislike bad and boring fantasy.
No you dislike anything that has fun or girls in it.
Jeez user, your trying too hard. In a way, it's really pathetic how you respond to every post someone makes against you. Face it, Overlord is an objectively good series, and your shitty opinion will never amount to anything. Isn't there anything else more productive you could be doing right now? You are arguing with a brick wall. Everyone is laughing at you, or ignoring you.
Holy shit this thread still exist?
>everyone talking about Ainz vs Aqua
Aqua would be destroyed if she ever fought against Touch Me. Their isn't anything she could do to stop him.
Of course it is, it even has championships and competitions based on it.
Stop being silly.
It seems that you are mistaking my ability to read and comprehend information at a higher pace as something negative, something that devalues the quality of information I receive, whilst in reality it is just a very useful skill I have developed throughout decades of reading. In some ways, it allows me to receive much more information from the same page than you, by applying all the experience I have with books to it.
Are you interested in any sub-genre or just fantasy in general?
It is also full of these meaningless posts that very mad overfags are trying desperately to use to refute my arguments.
Its not really working, maybe you should try writing something comprehensive instead.
And I am having fun doing so!
By this logic, you are the one who should fuck off to Yea Forums because you are not having fun in this exchange.
>it's really pathetic how you respond to every post someone makes against you
That is a very strange way of perceiving things you have here, care to elaborate on it?
>Face it, Overlord is an objectively good series, and your shitty opinion will never amount to anything.
Well, if it makes a whole thread seethe in complete inability of proving my points to be wrong - apparently my posts are not that bad, eh?
>Isn't there anything else more productive you could be doing right now?
As I have said, I am playing eve at the moment but since it is a very meditative game I have a lot of free time. Nevertheless, I still have to oversee things once in a while so leaving my PC and doing something else is not really an option.
>You are arguing with a brick wall.
Don't be so harsh on yourself.
>Everyone is laughing at you, or ignoring you.
So what's the problem then? If I am not getting to any of you, why do you guys keep replying or trying to find new ways to prove me wrong (and failing to do so) ?
>inability of proving my points to be wrong
What points?
Statistics don't lie my friend. Just because you don't particularly like the LNs. Doesn't mean it still isn't one of the best selling LNs in Japan. It's a pointless argument in the end. Also, enjoy your (You).
>ITT Overlord powerlevel fags SEETHING
why wasn't there an isekai quartet thread to contain the aquafags today?
>frog poster
Mods please delete his posts so I can see how many get deleted at once.
Aqua shitposter got assblasted because he got outshitpost'd by an albedofag.
I've made a huge number of them throughout the thread, so to make it easy for you I will just give out the basis.
Overlord is a very generic and boring fantasy franchise that has unimaginative story and a poorly written world that consists of unrealistic kingdoms with no proper background or social structures in them, everything about it is very MMO-esque, as in shallow and basic.
All of these problems are being happily ignored by the fanbase that consists of people who really, really, really like all the fetishes, power faggotry, edginess and MMORPG stuff in general.
This by itself would be fine with me, but at the same time you guys are trying to hail Overlord as something that has "great worldbuilding" "engaging story" and "character development" and none of this is really true.
This leads to you deceiving people about your beloved franchise, which in turn leads to people (like me, for example) being disappointed after trying it out. Which brings out negative emotions, as well a healthy desire to confront your misinformation.
I am not talking about LNs in general, just Overlord.
Its popularity doesn't contradict my argument.
Justin Bieber is one of the most popular singers in history, that doesn't mean his songs are good or bad, that only means that they are popular.
yeah, right
I am not an aquafag that started the thread.
Wow this guy is still going. It has been 7 hours at least right?
>Why do you guys like this when I don't reeee
What will Overlordfags do when it ends prematurely because the author is bored of his own powerwank?
Thats a fair enough reason. But You should be more more specific about what you feel is "generic" if you want to make a more proper argument. After all, Overlord does take place in a fantasy setting. So things like dragons, dwarfs and whatnot are to be expected. Even then, I still don't believe you understand why people enjoy reading Overlord.
Actually yeah, he is right
here's the archived thread The aquafag even said that he is impresed and gave up halfway through the thread.
Funny thing is, it seems that I know better why you guys like it than some of you yourselves do.
>It has been 7 hours at least right
Probably more.
Man it takes a long time to move shit in EVE, if you ever consider playing this game - don't even thing about getting into hauler's profession for your corp. Shit sucks. And its not like you can just stop and do it another day, because jump freighters require at least two people working together to operate or one dude multi-boxing and all I have to do is to wait for the command from my buddy to jump on the cyno field beacon he sets up for me in another part of galaxy.
Well, why do you enjoy reading it?
Overlord fag here. I think Aqua is pretty great. Much greater than anyone in the Overlord. But I don't deserve any better, so I keep with the Overlord. Sucks to be me.
So it needs to live up to your autistic standards of detail, in order for you to even consider it to have good world building? Overlord's world building is done from the perspectives of the inhabitants of the NW. It isn't this in depth commentary about the nuances of the currency between kingdoms. It has more to do with what is relevant to that particular character we are following. We have details like family history, careers, goals and aspirations for every character introduced. The world building is done in these little snapshots from the inhabitants, from lowly peasants, to high and mighty nobles. This isn't a lore book. It's more organic than that, and requires you to speculate a little about the small nuances that are brought up.
this troll attempt is so bad it's good
KEK, based albedochad
The aquafag deserved it
You just have a low iq and don't understand it, very common problem.
Seeing the inhabitants of the NW react to a mysterious overwhelming power. Interactions between characters from completely different backgrounds. The comedy that comes from Ainz fucking things up, but managing to make it work in the end. Exploration and speculation concerting the NW, and it's history. I've always been particularly interested in the NPCs interactions with the inhabitants of the NW. There are a lot of things to like. Just the fact that it's told from both perspectives allows it to be a dark fantasy story, while simultaneously being a comedy.
Because we've been screaming at everyone to read Hunter x Hunter
>dick
Every inch of Ainz's body is a boner.
You are confusing world building and character backstories. Pretty much every character from any given book/show/movie/etc has some backstory to his name. These are not world building. These are, as you yourself said
>little snapshots from the inhabitants
The quality of those is also debatable, "a peasant who was trained by a mercenary to become the strongest warrior in the realm, won a tournament, got noticed by a king and was then accepted into his service (without being knighted, because in this world peasants cannot be knighted even by a king, which technically would prevent any people from becoming nobles in the first place, but oh well) and is now absolutely loyal to him out of respect" is not really a very inspired, fresh or interesting backstory. As in, he seems like an archetypical "king's loyal paladin of virtue" and therefore I am not really interesting in his actions or his fate, because it will most likely be the same as that of any other "king's loyal paladin of virtue"
One way of making this character original and interesting would be to show some negative traits of his. Maybe he is greedy, maybe he is violent, maybe he prioritizes king over country and therefore has no problems oppressing disobedient peasants. Maybe he is prideful to the point of it being a sin. But instead we have this idealized, childish version of a perfect, noble and loyal soldier, which makes him uninteresting and predictable.
Well, so for you it is mostly about power fantasy and at the same time you are not taking it all too seriously, considering it to be more of a dark situational comedy type of thing.
Fair enough, I have noticed both of these things throughout my own experience with overlord, and whilst I myself am not really interested in overwhelming power as a plot point, a do like me some dark comedy.
Unfortunately, for me the bad things I was talking about outweighed the good ones.
Read more books.
Bros, is the new Evileye side story translation complete yet?
I want more Overlord in my life.
Yes, it has been complete for some time now.
Me reading so many books is one of the reasons I was unable to enjoy overlord.
I imagine that I would like it a lot more if my experience with high fantasy was limited to a couple of dozens of stories.
All of those have been done before which makes me think you haven't read enough to be bored of those tropes yet.
That was me, I just woke up from my nap desu.
>interested*
You haven't got my point.
You don't have to stop with
>he is a paladin of virtue, but he is also prideful
You go and explore this combination of traits, writing conflicts and encounters around it.
And with a bit of inspiration, possibilities are endless here, you can make a completely original character with just this one flaw to his perfect character.
Technically, you don't even have to go for the flaw at all. It will just make it easier.
But it seems that author hasn't even tried to do anything, he just conceded that the dude will not be an interesting character in the first place.
And all his the backstory is just a filler that he had to put in "because that what other authors do"
>You go and explore this combination of traits, writing conflicts and encounters around it.
All which happened in vol 1, 6 and 9.
Oh, so your one of those people who only care about "subverting expectations". Well I'm sorry Overlord disappoints by not giving everyone a wacky back story, because that would be "new" and "interesting". If you had read further, you would have found a few stand out characters with interesting back stories and connections. But it doesn't matter regardless. It's all just a matter of taste at the end of the day.
Not in vol 1 for sure, there he was just a paladin of virtue that never showed any interesting things about himself.
No, I have way to much experience with books to be swayed by someone "subverting expectations" or having "wacky" backstory.
Complex and life-like characters are what I like and can empathize with, because in reality people are much more complex than that. We are shaped by decades of experience and even a simple dude that has been a truck driver his whole life will have more layers to him than Gazef, or Ainz really.
>confusing world building and character backstories
How would you suggest a non intrusive way to write world building into your story without info dumping?
Does this originate from Ah! Megami-sama?
That's the feeling I got with konosuba anyway: same universe, different divine department.
Make it an interesting "info dumping" relevant to the story, combine it with comedy, tragedy or clever writing in general.
After all, if you yourself, the author, imagined things this way - how can it be intrusive or non-important? Why would people be bored by it? Unless you yourself think that it is boring, and are uninspired by your own creation. But that is really an unsolvable problem, that can only be addressed by abandoning your work and writing something else instead.
>Plays EVE
>Is absolutely autistic
Someone should screenshot this shit, it's too funny.
Get help you neckbeard faggot. You've been arguing about a shitty isekai for hours and will likely continue to do so.
Gazef has his own issues about not feeling worthy enough for his title. His constant battle with the nobles who constantly try to undermine the king. Him worrying about the future of the kingdom, and the common folk because of his connection with them. Gazef finding respect for Marquis Raeven, a noble he had despised, but eventually admitted he had gotten the wrong impression. His respect for Ainz Ooal Gown, even after finding out he was an undead. His friendly rivalry between him and Brain. It may not be all that exiting, but Gazef had a realistic character going for him. He was a guy with a duty to uphold, and was chosen by the king for a good reason. Cliche? Maybe a little. But was he realistic? I believe his character was believable given the circumstances.
Why won't you do this yourself?
I shave every other day and we are way past isekai, at this point we are talking about book writing in general.
And I like books.
Pretty much this. I honestly don't know why I bother responding to this guy.
I only play pokemon but only the older games or rom hacks that interest me.
That's actually pretty based dumb Aquafag.
Because I don't go to Yea Forums or /vg/ but I can still tell that they would have a field day with this shit because you are the incarnation of the "autistic EVE players" meme.
>Why would people be bored by it?
Maybe because people don't like random info dumps in the middle of their stories? It breaks the mood, and separates the reader from the immersion you are setting up by having it develop naturally. Overlord may info dump from time to time. But at least it stays consistent to what is actually going on around the characters. Honestly, you act like you've read hundreds of stories, but you don't understand these basic concepts.
there's literally an overlord general years before the anime

>Gazef finding respect for Marquis Raeven, a noble he had despised, but eventually admitted he had gotten the wrong impression.
>>His respect for Ainz Ooal Gown, even after finding out he was an undead.
All of these are perfectly consistent with the archetype, which raises my previous concern about the author not being interested in the character enough to write him as a character, and going for "okay, he is a typical loyal paladin, so what would he do in this situation" way instead.
>He was a guy with a duty to uphold, and was chosen by the king for a good reason.
Not really? He just demonstrated his strength by winning a tournament.
It would have been much better if he had a track of heroic deeds to his name for king to even consider making him his champion. Combat prowess by itself can be a positive or negative trait. You wouldn't want a person without a proven record of serving the kingdom to stay barely a couple of meters away from the king, holding a huge sword that can cleave the monarch in halves.
>their stories
But this is your story, not theirs. You set the mood and you have complete control over the pacing of the it.
>But at least it stays consistent to what is actually going on around the characters.
That's the point. Not characters nor world around them is interesting or inspired, info-dumped or not
>Honestly, you act like you've read hundreds of stories, but you don't understand these basic concepts.
Basic concepts of writing consistently boring and uninspired characters? Yeah, sorry, I haven't grasped those throughout my reading experience. But I became rather good at recognizing them, a skill you will only acquire in a decade or so, it seems.
I know that Yea Forums generally has bad taste in videogames, but do they really hate EVE now?
Man Yea Forums is getting worse and worse with each year.
Sorry, 4channel that is.
Overlord is the Japanese LOTR trust me guys it's that good just read the LN
no one is hating on the game, it's just well known that you have to be autistic to have the patience to play that game.
>Tfw read the LN , manga and watched the anime
>always drop after 2-3 chapters/episodes
Is overlord a big Yea Forums meme because I don't get the love for such a shit piece of work.
Autists are not known for their patience or ability to concentrate well enough on multiple things at once, they also have a problems with communication. All of which would make it pretty hard for them to ever play EVE, the game that is based around these things. In fact, it would be the hardest MMO for them to ever get into.
To play EVE in an efficient way you do have to have a great amount of patience, but also a certain degree of intelligence and an ability to socialize with your dudes, because you will not be able to get anywhere in this game without a strong collective.
My corp's CEO is a successful business owner, and most people here are having decent lives in accordance with social norms, not being outcasts or NEETs
Speaking of which, I kinda get why Yea Forums would hate on this community, it being the complete opposite of all the NEETish autism that reigns supreme on that board.
You should read the ln, season 2 and 3 were a real abortion.
The LN is pretty good tho, its the LN that got me into reading Lns
If you are going to read the same thing over and over again you will obviously dislike it.
What is happening in this thread?
Also, i watched S1 and liked it a lot, should i stop there and go with the novel or should i watch the other two and then read?
Will i like the LN if i liked the anime? from what i've read it's different.
>What is happening in this thread?
A very lengthy discussion on many topics between me and various inhabitants of Yea Forums, polite and not so much.
You are kinda late to the party thou, because I will soon finish my tasks in EVE and will go to sleep, and then the thread will die.
Always go for the novel my dude. That is true for every story.
In your place i would just take a look over volume 3 and then start reading from volume 4.
>I say that I don't go to Yea Forums and that I'm just calling your autism out

>You want to argue with that?
That you are autistic? I don't need to, you proved it on your own.
The soldiers flying away like that is just like the LN, don't you see those shields come from the deepest lore and were forged in the fires of repel mountain by purupurupongo the greatest blacksmith in all of Nazarak over a million years ago. Don't let the cgi fool you, this is some hardcore shit right here if you've read the LN.
All this will succeed doing is making Overlord less hated and Aqua a pariah. People root for the underdog, or their hometown. You’ll disillusion people not familiar with either series and make them think Konosuba is cancer if you keep this up. I do enjoy fandom wars
I am not sure that you understand the definition of autism well enough to make that conclusion.
See, having lengthy conversations is not a sign of autism.
Being unable of having lengthy conversations to the point when it causes you physical irritation that you have to express through your words by lashing at the person you are talking to - now this is a sign of autism.
You should probably get checked if that is the case for you, although I am not an expert so it is just another honest, fact-based observation from me :^)

We have a decent protagonist who undergoes character development. Some other characters are also distinct and memorable, like his best friend companion, sheltered dwarf or the cool dragon antagonist.
Other than that, it's a solid fantasy universe where I can't find any major flaws, at least on a first glance.
STOP IT
Silly you!
An opinion is not a fact in an of itself, but it can be based on facts, this is why I said that it is my
>honest, fact-based observation
And the facts that I used for it are simple,
1)Autists have problems with communication
2)Autists have problems with concentration
3)Autists have problems with patience
All these facts are well documented and publicly available.
By combining all of them we can reach a conclusion that having problems with lengthy conversations is one of the signs of autism
Its pure logic, really.
See, you have owned yourself with this post without even realizing it.
How so? I have stated multiple times in this thread that I am not an Aquafag responsible for it's creation, nor am I an Aquafag at all.
By not having a sufficient amount of knowledge on canon of this thread you've made a fool out of yourself, and ergo there is no need to take your opinion seriously :^)

>I have stated multiple times in this thread that I am not an Aquafag responsible for it's creation, nor am I an Aquafag at all.
dont reply to me again you faggot, what? do you want to suck my dick too? sasuga!
Bothering to read your walls of text when you admitted to be oblivious about topic of discussion, now that would be autism.
Nice stealth request.
SASUGA AINZ-SAMA!
Holy hell I was joking about my autism post several hours ago but now I'm unironically not sure anymore.
Next time make sure you remotely read real med books regarding personality problems at least, or look up the most recent studies regarding that subject if you want people to take you seriously.
Yo, tsundere aquaposter. Stop your spam, you will get banned
SASUGA AINZSAMA!!
I'm NOT tsundere! I also like how the words roll off my tongue.
>Can you differentiate between Jap and non-Jap
I am pretty sure that I would be able to recognize Alice and Gulliver as western books right of the bat, because of their style and settings being very un-typical for Japanese novels.
>We have a decent protagonist who undergoes character development. Some other characters are also distinct and memorable, like his best friend companion, sheltered dwarf or the cool dragon antagonist.

Sounds good, I'll check it out. Thank you for your participation.
I would probably be offended by you calling me a liar, but then we have established that your opinion doesn't matter because
>muh canon
and therefore I am fine, funny how this things work, huh.
I have answered this so many times that I will just direct you to this post
Such a tragedy, I want him to keep posting but don't want him to get banned.
aqua is absolutely amazing
Yes, you need to know canon for your arguments to be taken seriously. I didn't read the rest of your post.
Does it mean your opinion matter?
m8 She'd be destroyed if she fought fookin CZ, unless you're a evil entity she can't do jack shit.
Hell, CZ could probably waste everyone other then the Nazricks.
But you will of course be able to correct my opinion by presenting us all with superior quality information on the subject that you clearly possess from all the "real med books" that you have "remotely read"
Cmon, i'll wait.
Welp, he is gonna get banned anyway, too bad for him. He was starting to be nice
Is he human? She can just re-isekai him and have him lose all his powers. Aqua is a Goddess you retard.
Sure: your opinion is worthless because you didn't read the LNs.
Its good to have so many posts that I can just direct you to them instead of answering.
STOP TALKING ABOUT ME AS IF IM ALREADY DEAD!
Haha good joke
Unless he dies and she's in the heavenly realm I don't think she could do much user.
Control your tsun.
>when aquafag fucks up admitting he was shitposting all along without reading the source material
>and has to kill the thread with lowest quality spam of lowest quality konosuba character
not tsun...
You're a very smart person. :'D
if you haven't seen through him within the first 5 posts then you're just as bad
That is really not how it works.
It is fine if you want to leave your criticisms of just one book out of a series if you have only read this one book and are not planning to read further because it wasn't good enough.
Other people can point out that some of its flaws will be corrected in later books, but this is really the only way for you to not to take my arguments seriously.
If your argument is "Well, duh, you haven't read\watched all the stuff from my beloved franchise therefore I will not accept any criticisms of parts of it that you have read through" then this is not really a valid argument, instead you are dodging criticisms, being unable to answer them.
>demands to be spoonfed worldbuilding
>only read 5/14 of the books
Fitting for an Aquafag. Just as dumb as his damegami.
So your critics only valid to vol 5?
Refusing to spoonfeed or argue with a faggot that is oblivious to the topic of discussion is common sense.
>when an overfag lives in his own version of reality to cope with his inability to defend his beloved franchise
Oh sure just let me run 379 miles to ask my Aniki to lend me his books just to spoonfeed you this late at night, you have fingers and an 'oh so superior' reading comprehension so the terminology shouldn't be an issue :^).
>shitposts on the basis of less than a third of all material
>waaaaaaaaah why they no take me serious
...
...
Yeah I'd rather prove something to a turd. At least it has a decency to remain silent while being educated.
Why would anyone bother to educate your shitposting lazy ass? Fuck off and learn about topic of dicsussion.
read the LN goyim!
>take me seriously you guys!
>gets all of his shitposts refuted within 10 posts
>nope that doesn't count, let's try that again
>it happens again
>NO THAT DOESNT COUNT JUST ADMIT THAT YOUR NOVEL IS SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT
>take me seriously you guys!
Well, that a real shame then.
Maybe your very knowledgeable Aniki can help you to find a better way to went your autistic rage.
Then you won't have to embarrass yourself by screaming at the people on the internet.
Take care.

>Autismfag trying to act like he was just shitposting to cover up the embarassment of being called out for his autism
I am sure that you will be able to give a better answer once you have composed yourself.
Just calm down and try again :^)
>umad?
No need to fall so low, everyone has already seen trough you when you admitted to dropping it early.
Where are the walls of text?
>greentext of things that have never happened
we aren't talking about your posts here, bud
since you haven't brought up a single example from the novel it's safe to assume that you watched some youtuber explain it to you in 5 minutes
Ok try again like this
I am only answering with walls of text when something requires such an answer, so far all you newcomers wanted to is shitposting, and I am fine with it but do not expect me to answer seriously :^)
Eh i think you're just joking all this time
>mfw Aquafag loses ball again and transcends even his own shitposting by going completely off-topic and calling anons mean names
>just to bury his defeat deeper into the thread and further from bumplimit.
Reminde that all of the autistic wall-of-text rantings below were written by an aquafag eve-player who only ever finished 5 Overlord volumes.
Truly pathetic.
s a s u g a a i n z s a m a
An example of bad worldbuilding would be my post on Re-Estize Kingdom, an example of bad character writing would be my series of posts on Gazef.
I trust you will be able to find them, if you want to try and refute anything.
So far - no one here could.

It's all one massive joke what are you playing at? The guy who argued a he can take down a polar bear while bare handed has more credibility than you.
Why did rescued whores in guard station had to die?
Answer under 2 minutes or you didn't read the LN.
Oh wait, that's vol6, and you stopped at 5.
Don't bother. I'm not interested in discussing Overlord with someone not familiar with it.
>still no examples from the novel, just vague shit he heard on youtube
imagine my surprise
You seem to try really hard to pull a character-assassination on me and so far its not really working out well for you, the thread is going on strong even past the bump-limit and I am enjoying all the (you)s and conversations.
Maybe you should try changing your tactics.
Entire thread told you to fuck off with your spoonfeeding begging.
Nobody would answer you because your arguments don't exist and you can't possibly have any because you didn't read the LNs.
Ah, so you have decided to just shitpost like everyone else here, instead of trying to prove anything or have a conversation.
A popular choice these days!
He doesn't need to do anything when you did it all by yourself all day long.
You haven't met requirements to be taken seriously in Overlord discussion thread.
>still no examples
don't @ me until you read the volumes you pretend to have read
I wonder if you picked volumes 1-5 because you thought there are only 5 rofl
>I'm not interested in discussing Overlord with someone not familiar with it.
I can't help but looking at this entire thread. Maybe you're all retarded?
It doesn't matter how many times you are going to state things that are not true, my arguments are still standing strong and are unchallenged with all the challengers so far being defeated in merely one or two posts.
It's only because you kept saying that you've read them until 450 posts in.
Where you admitted that you in fact did not.
Also
Then you haven't met requirements for me to take your posts seriously, baka senpai!
This is how you sound right now
>things that are not true
Your posts aren't true? Go figure.
I never said that. You're mistaking me with shiny Aqua poster and this is why you lost before the fight even began.
>spoonfeed me reeee I want to discuss Overlord but know nothing of it!
I think user got a little too deep into his Aqua roleplay
INT below average is no joking matter
Gee, I guess confusing people is one of the sings of autism as well.
Hope you will get better.
You could have answered it in 10 minutes but you did not. You didn't read the novels.
>Not a single super specific moment from the novels or a quote
I never said that I read the novels.

Don't forget about her below average luck

You did fucking liar, then you admit later on you are just pulling shit out of your ass.
Is your brain going to explode?
>drops the ball admitting he was shitposting entire thread
>"It-t wasn't me!"
>"M-merely pretending!"
>Samefagging
Pathetic. Is this what Axis cult really comes down to?
No sweetie, that is not how logic works.
Try again.
what with blue Narb posting?
No I didn't I haven't even read or replied to any of the tl;dr walls of text. This is what they call checkmate you autist.
I am able of both having a conversation with people that desire it and shitpost with people like you at the same time.
Multitasking is a great skill, you should try acquiring it.
:^)
there's no doubt it's an Overlord falseflag operation
sausage
I'm doing it right now
>Read the LNs
>I did.
>Its shit.
>but only vols 1-5
So shitposting? Gotcha.
The one who said that he read the novels was me, and since I have never stated that I read all of them (I've read just five) there is no lie here.
Calm down.
Are mods aquafags?
Good for you!
>So shitposting? Gotcha.
That is a non sequitur,
That's insulting Narb, it's blue Remedios.
probably
>only read 5 novels
>thinks he's in a position to call Overlord bad when he has less than 50 novels under his belt
hilarious
This thread is basically
>50% aquafag shitposting
>25% aquafag sauce begging
>15% aquafag spamming
>10% aquafag damage control
Figure the rest out yourself.
>623 / 207 / 94
I have to confess that I am really proud of myself right now. Firing up the most successful thread on Yea Forums as a side activity whilst playing vidya.
Thanks guys :^)
Good for you
>trolled lol
Yes, being BTFO by entire thread you yourself started is a bit impressive.
Novels in general? I've read a lot of them, like really a lot.
But light novels? Yeah, definitely less than 50 or even 10 really.
But it seems to me that they are pretty much the same as regular novels with less words and a pretty picture or two every hundred pages.
That body count is beautiful.

>makes 300 posts defending his retardation vs 50 Overlordchads

when you expend more than 5 times the effort, it's not trolling
but what do I know, this is 4channel after all
Does it count as a win when you are the one in the floor all purple and black with cum gushing out of your ass? for some probably it is a win.
Pretty sure it's time for some Albedo appreciation.
Best girl despite artist taking her nipples. Saggy damegamis cannot possibly compete!
Starting to think that they are, it's really weird how this spam is going on for weeks on multiple threads and no bans yet. Btw whats up with all these (you) screenshots? Newfags? Anyone that has been here for more than 3 months should know how simple it is to edit a (you) and that those screenshots are worthless.
Albedo is strong and loyal too, unlike certain someone.
Yeap, cant deny that.
Although I had to quote myself about 10-15 times there
So far it was me and a bunch of aquafags BTFOing every seething overshart that dared to enter this thread
:^)
She's fine I guess.
Courteous and refined. Good table and sleeping manners.
delte this now you zombie whore!
She's not against a party when it calls for it.
And all about seizing the opportunities that are presented to her.
Also, Aquafag share your (you)s too, Im sure you've managed to get a lot of them yourself!
She enjoys trust of her master and comrades.
>Although I had to quote myself about 100-150 times there
Assertive and takes initiative when it matters.
Aqua is actually pretty based getting all you guys so heated.
Her love is purest out there.
Forming new connections and finding new friends!
You are a very strange fishy-chan, you seem to understand that you are being baited, yet you still take it hook, line and sinker.
Not very smart of you!
Her reward.
>94 posters
>646 replies
yeah haha he sure got all us heated and didn't samefag
Albedo is a diplomatic envoy to a powerful country. She can into politics and etiquette, she can even pour expensive wine without turning it into water.
No need to, really.
Just go back and check how many replies I get on my every post.
It's kinda ridiculous.
Albedo can be funny when she wants to.
So you are aquafaq too, great
What ridiculous is how wrong and retarded you are. Achievement fitting for an aquafag.
Was this Albedo thread all along too? I think so, yes, it definitely was.
I am also fine with this albedo-spam because she is cute.
But it is kind of a wasted effort, really
Thread is already waaay past the bump-limit.
Maybe you should save your energy for your future conflicits with aquafags!
Sure sometimes Albedo fights with her fellow Guardians, but all is good.
You beat me!
It's understandable that certain someone would be absolutely buttblasted about such a refined beauty hijacking his dumb damegami saggy thread.
Until we meet again overbros.
There was no one other of note in this thread but us.
The Goal of All Threads is Archive! Cry of Bumplimit!
