To be fair, technically Pandora was always part of the group shot as half the time he's pretending to be Ainz Tho, yeah, its nice that he will finally be getting a bit more to do this season
- 7 Years since the first episode - Hype has never died down for me, to finally see the perspective of a strong ''villain'' in a world where almost every side character has MC potential made this anime a top 10 for me. No power of friendships, no graspings 0.0001% chances of winning and succeeding, victor goes to the most powerful and I think it's interesting to see how that plays out in anime for once. - Movie has been announced and the studio's that are working on Overlord now are kinda godlike in what they do. (Madhouse) - Anime only watchers have so much more to look forward too, I'm just stoked beyond belief about this one.
I agree. And for me... the hype hasn't waned. It has only grown stronger with each season. It's so rare to see an anime able to 1 up itself each season even after receiving a strong start.
It's always the thing with Overlord openings, if you see the previous openings you can also see there are a lot "battle scenes" going on, while in fact it's mostly always one sided massacre.
I don’t know much about the light novels, but I’m thinking the dude in the floating armor is one of the players from the old game, like Ainz was. They’ve hinted in the show that several other players got trapped in this world too, and Ainz is somehow 200 years late to the show. If that’s the case, we could finally get a good fight out of this season.
@@Crackmiser No, he is not in the minority. I do not like this op. In the previous seasons, there was a sense of madness and it was in harmony with the overlord atmosphere.
For those wondering, season 4 was rumored but it is now confirmed from this OP that it will cover volumes 10, 11, and 14. (same sort of pattern from previous seasons, 3 volumes per season.) They are skipping 12 and 13 and making a movie from those novels. It is indeed kind of a weird decision, but I'm hopeful to see how they do it. It could turn out to be bad, or very good, just know though that volumes 10+ are extremely good with a large amount of characters getting more screen time than in previous seasons
Thing is, they had originally only announced it to adapt volumes 10 and 11. I would've preferred that personally. I really hope that this will only be a case like the opening of season 1 that showed stuff from later volumes.
@@sancturillore yeah, well, from the op it looks like we’re straight up just getting the entirety of volume 14 :( I also would’ve liked only the two volumes myself, since I think overlord with slower pacing would allow for a lot more content to not be cut, but who knows why kadakowa decided to do that…
@@sancturillore also pretty sure ppl from a Japanese forum have confirmed it out right. There’s also way too much in the op from volume 14 for it to just be a teaser… trust me I wish they weren’t skipping to 14
@@sancturillore I counted 11 scenes in the OP from Volume 14, versus 5 from Vol.10 and 4 from Vol.11. So we're getting Vol.14 this season. I genuinely hope that the movie is going to be a midquel, in the anime timeline, and not MadHouse randomly changing the order of events, since Vol.12 and 13 would have made no sense, if their events had taken place after Vol.14.
I don't think I ever experienced an opening as epic as this one, from the visuals to the epic music, this is on power to actual mainstream songs for me.
@@SDayle He's definitely a villain. The vast majority of his actions are nowhere near heroic or even anti-heroic. He, and the denizens of Nazarick definitely commit villainous, sometimes straight up evil, acts. I think you're confusing the terms villain with antagonist. Ainz is a villainous protagonist, which is why despite some of his more "evil" actions, we still end up rooting for him.
Its very discussionable. Villain or not, depends on the pov. For villagers he was mighty Lord saviour who bring Prosperity. For Kindom - he is devil. For me - he is realistic neutral. He doing stuff to survive in the world. As we do everyday. He dont do bad things for bad things. He always has reasons.
Never knew it would feel so wonderful to know every single character in this opening after reading all the novels. One of the best light novels, especially the last 5 volumes.
Who's the floating knight at the end? From the cast's expressions, it's making me think it's another player from the original guild, but I didn't ever expect to see any of those players.
@@VoltCruelerz in season one and OVERLORD MOVIE 2: SHIKKOKU NO EIYUU, you can see some glimpses of the armor and the weapons, plus later in the anime he is going to have a conversation with Rigrit, a necromancer, and one of the thirteen heroes aswell. It shows the armor set with a dent in the shoulder if I remember correctly, when he engaged in combat against Shalltear.
just wondering are light novels any fun to read (I'm talking about general light novels). If so i might give light novels like mushokut tensei or overlord a try
Madhouse really know Philip-san's greatness. They even put him on same frame with Ainz-sama, showing he is equal in terms of intelligence with Ainz-sama.
Well, personally, I think they always surpassed the previous: both OPs and EDs (ending IV excluded cause I think the other three are better).. for how iconic Clattanoia can be and how crazy good Voracity is.
Man. After last season, I find myself worried for anyone fighting Ainz or his minions. Even in that last shot with them lining up to support him, it just reminds me of how much unstoppable power he has at his beck and call.
Ainz with preparation and the treasury could likely easily solo anyone in the world. The only reason he even had trouble with Shalltear was because he didn't want to use any World Items against her, for fear of prying eyes.
@@thewhyzer Possibly spoiler, so don't read if you don't wanna. He would probably be able to do that even withut preparations. The only ones that can beat the guardians are the childrens of the ex players and the PDL. The rest can be taken care with death knights and other monsters. So maybe Ainz would lose a few guardians in the fight (if we consider they can use World Items we can assume some guardians might die), but he could just resurrect them. He is just doing thing slowly to avoid this scenario, but it's just a matter of time.
@@thewhyzer yeah, Ainz is doing the slow conquest but if he equiped every guardian with 2-3 world tier items and devvine level accesorys & sent hundrets of death nights to help each one, he could conqure the world in less than a year.
@@RTOmega Neither Ainz nor the LN readers actually know what exists in this world outside of the few countries that have been shown or even mentioned. Even without Ainz, the guardians could destroy the KNOWN world in like a month, but who knows if there are level 1000 World Class Entities out there 10,000 miles away somewhere.
OxT is an excellent band for many reasons, but a particular one is that they know how to use voice modifiers. OxT's auto-tune isn't a cheap way to sound better; they even sometimes distort it as you would in a meme (0:22) and it sounds fantastic because they get creative with it.
I really don't know what you are talking about in the second half of your comment... Where do you hear distortion in the vocals? I don't hear anythinf different at 0:22. (Not hating just genuine quesiton)
@@alessiovitturi7312 They are referring to the “Content Awareness Scale” voice distortion, where the voice fluctuates slightly as if the sound was rippling water.
I was genuinely looking forward to the new Overlord opening just as much as I was looking forward to the new season. Was not disappointed in the slightest.
The singer for Myth & Roid for the earlier seasons of Overlord was Mayu Maeshima. She doesn't sing for Myth & Roid anymore and is the one who sings the ED for this new season.
I was 14 when it first came out and now 21. I'm not sure why but the second I saw episode 1 I was hooked and still am amazed how a series can keep me interested and entertained for so long.
I love that each season of Overlord their OP works to frame the exact tone, season 1 is chaotic because everything is unknown, they have no idea what world they're in, season 2 has the first building of the Nation of the Sorcerer King and the building of that fight, season 3 is all about manipulation and control with the main cast setting up their world domination. And season 4, things are now accelerating to their ultimate state. Everything from song choice to the animation is drop dead gorgeous, this season it starts off punchy and then is just the inevitable moving forwards, getting faster and more serious as it goes along. These series by Madhouse are works of art, and finally they're getting their act together with 3D and making them look and feel better.
About damn time man it feels like forever since I heard overlord was coming back now that I see I shed a tear and peed a lil glad it’s finally back now I have something to watch
@@Troop- I just hope it's animated, cause lf they do live action it may cause a negative impact in some way. Unless they manage to pull it off really well or just well enough that it works
I really love realistic approach to combat in Overlord. Aura wants to get something, someone stays on her way, she one-hits him and moves on. No power of friendship, no long talks about why live is unfair, pure stats do brrrr.
@@jessenielsen7218 unironically, I had this perspective the whole anime, but then we got to That fight, with Climb getting the ring activating. I TRULY thought that would be different there for the first time Not a win for him But not a total stomp It's scary how it may took way too long for me to see a fight as balanced as the season 1 finale And it's crazy that we got such fight that earlier. I'm really amazed by this anime and how it does things differently.
It's a game, larger numbers one-hit, as it should be. In Lineage 2 most 1v1 duels lasted shorter than 20 seconds, and similarly it is in Overlord.@@omppusolttu5799
Lol, this was me watching the 1st episode of the season. I kept pausing and replying multiple scenes because of how much I enjoyed them. I had read the light novels so it feels amazing seeing scenes that were previously just mental pictures before. Also we finally got a good view of our wall climbing maid lol
this is the one show that i can agree 100% that every opening and season slaps just as hard as the last and just keeps getting better. Cant wait to see overlord season 4 to unfold and the Overlord "ainz ooal gown!" to take over the world with his harem. Man, they feed us too well and this gonna be on my spotify playlist on repeat>:D
This is not the right reason. Because the old overlord is full of cgi, so we should enjoy a lot of cgi?!? In my opinion, this only heralds a major animation disaster. mappa's excuse for aot was time. What is the excuse of madhouse after 4 years for overlord?
I love it how every Overlord opening makes you think that they have a chance against Nazarick... and then you watch Ainz and the Guardians just trample over everyone.
I am so happy to see this anime get another season, this anime is so good and such an interesting take on the isekai, not to mentiont he world building is extraordinary
Those first 10 seconds even is just so great. Crazy seeing the improvement in editing and quality too from the 1st to the 4th openings but they're all great
If there's one thing that disappoints me about the show, it's how blatantly unfair the discrepancy between levels is between someone who is of the new world and those who are of the Ainz and his tomb of Nazarick . It's the futility that can best be described as pitting a high school sports team against a major league team, and the strongest amongst that high school team is often barely at the level of a college athlete . The slaughter and overkill is entertaining for awhile, then you start to feel somewhat bad that all these characters usually have no idea just how much of a losing battle that they are fighting.
@@RichterfanReborn89 while i do believe thats the point, which is why the writer focuses on the people from the new world so much, i get why you might not enjoy it.
@@davidc. At the end of the day, this show is about being Ainz and company being good at playing the bad guys and doing evil stuff in the process of taking over the world 🌎. Believe me I'm down for the wholesale beat down of most of the characters of the new world, I just wish it was a midge closer like they were 60-70 mostly, and a few that approached 80 , that way it's not entirely the one sided beat down that happens because most of the people of the new world don't even approach 50
I saw several anime shows and across the seasons there is always at least one or more opening which i don't like for one reason or another, but for Overlord I love the opening of each season so far. The music is amazing, and the images (that work as a preview of things that you will eventually see on the season) are even better.
I like how you can see every known guild member of AOG in the first second. Like they don’t have to do that because problably none of them will ever appear in the story, but they did anyway.
Each time i see the final shot of Ainz and the still unknown man floating in mid air gives me chills. None other character in the series except those realated to Nazarick have ever been shown to have the ability to fly, so this man feels like a huge threat
It’s the platinum dragon lord, he’s probably the strongest new world character. But shaltear fully equipped can beat him. So he’s not that big of a threat, since the floor guardians can beat him.
So I am relatively new to anime in general. Read about this one in a Reddit recommendation. I was instantly addicted, watched all 4 seasons in less than a month and now I just watch this once a week until we get a new season.
I love how until the end, without prior knowledge, you can't tell Ains and Co are the main cast. It's framed with the humans as the protags fighting off this great evil.
My favorite shot is the one part where Jircniv is smiling but it's clearly a nervous smile, like he lost all of his cool image from the previous season and is slowly collapsing now that he realizes he has no chance of winning against Ainz.
I smile... Imagining her torn limb from limb, skinned Bolton style and eyes pecked out by crows, and all her hopes and dreams crushed. But that's not what you meant right?
Brain Unglass was already having PTSD after meeting Shaltear....then he meets Sebas, followed by Ainz and now he's probably fighting Cocytus at some point in the opening? That man just can't seem to ever catch a break when it comes to meeting people who break expectations and limits....
best anime . but if you also read the light novel ... it's divine. I advise everyone to delve into the world OVERLORD! Thank you for giving me such a masterpiece!

You're kidding right 😂, this opening ain't it
I really love realistic approach to combat in Overlord.
Aura wants to get something, someone stays on her way, she one-hits him and moves on.
No power of friendship, no long talks about why live is unfair, pure stats do brrrr.
Climb vs Ainz perfectly showed this
@@jessenielsen7218 unironically, I had this perspective the whole anime, but then we got to That fight, with Climb getting the ring activating. I TRULY thought that would be different there for the first time
Not a win for him
But not a total stomp
It's scary how it may took way too long for me to see a fight as balanced as the season 1 finale
And it's crazy that we got such fight that earlier.
I'm really amazed by this anime and how it does things differently.
"Realistic" starts talking about stats.
It's a game, larger numbers one-hit, as it should be. In Lineage 2 most 1v1 duels lasted shorter than 20 seconds, and similarly it is in Overlord.@@omppusolttu5799
As Ainz said, life is unfair but death is equal to everyone.
Season 4 baby. It's been epic so far do I am excited to see how it goes.
Let's see the reward of 4 years of waiting
Genocide
Literally replayed this a couple of times before telling myself, "Oh right! The rest of the episode."
Lol, this was me watching the 1st episode of the season. I kept pausing and replying multiple scenes because of how much I enjoyed them.
I had read the light novels so it feels amazing seeing scenes that were previously just mental pictures before.
Also we finally got a good view of our wall climbing maid lol
This is the behavior of a king/ queen
Same
0:15 is just so smooth fr
Can't wait to listen to it on repeat for the next few years until the next season comes out
It is interesting that season 2 and 3 were released together in 2018. Maybe season 4 and 5 will be like this. 🤷♂️
@@realanimeir3173 i hope so
@@realanimeir3173 that would be awesome
0:46 suena la mejor parte de la intro del anime, me encanto y me gusto muchisimo esa parte.
this is the one show that i can agree 100% that every opening and season slaps just as hard as the last and just keeps getting better. Cant wait to see overlord season 4 to unfold and the Overlord "ainz ooal gown!" to take over the world with his harem. Man, they feed us too well and this gonna be on my spotify playlist on repeat>:D
OP never dissapoints, and I'm glad to see the CGI has remained on Overlord classic quality! You just have to love this show!
This is not the right reason. Because the old overlord is full of cgi, so we should enjoy a lot of cgi?!? In my opinion, this only heralds a major animation disaster.
mappa's excuse for aot was time. What is the excuse of madhouse after 4 years for overlord?
I can’t believe this OP sounds even better or as good as the last 3… they nailed IT.
Mhm
They are building us up. Idek how OP5 can standup to this!
That’s a bit overboard honestly
@@Mslthordos that's why I responded with the buildup... Each song has shown us more of the universe imo
I think it’s better imo this is definitely my type
The deeper you get into the Season the better the OP becomes…
Excuse me. I'll be playing this on repeat for a while now.
0:40
When its boys against girls in physical education class.
I love it how every Overlord opening makes you think that they have a chance against Nazarick... and then you watch Ainz and the Guardians just trample over everyone.
1:08 a legendary adversary approaches ! 🔥🔥
who's that
I think it's a dragon using polymorph? D&D dragons can transform using polymorph.
@@Roberto-ji2zj Platinum dragonlord.
Is that enemy?
@@GarlicOnions they definitely will fight, not gonna say any more. Read novels?
And thus Overlord is 4 for 4 in op that absolutely slap!!!
One of the few shows who’s openings I can’t watch all in a row and not get bored or lose interest for even a minute.
Its even 4 out of 4 in eds! They are not holding back anything
@@Crackmiser Black Clover had the same effect on me
@@ningensan8198 meh not fan of new ed tbh
I am so happy to see this anime get another season, this anime is so good and such an interesting take on the isekai, not to mentiont he world building is extraordinary
The vibes of this anime hit different
0:29 wenn i ask my barber just to cut the tip a bit
this op gives me so much serotonin, i just can't get enough of it.
Another pure Fire Opening! Never gonna skip that, in fact this opening must be watched several times before getting to the episode
Overlord really is that one shows that makes the OP better every season!
Evolution of Ainz Ooal Gown:
Season 1: Good Guy
Season 2: Neutral
Season 3: Brutal-Killing General
Season 4: Bling Bling
Expected nothing less from overlord intros. 🔥
”As expected of Overlord-sama!”
This fits the Overlord aesthetic so well
all 4 openings do this
Those first 10 seconds even is just so great. Crazy seeing the improvement in editing and quality too from the 1st to the 4th openings but they're all great
From the looks of it it seems Pandora's Actor is gonna be having a major role this season and I'm all for it
1:02 welp RIP Brain Unglaus, getting destroyed by another floor guardian.
If there's one thing that disappoints me about the show, it's how blatantly unfair the discrepancy between levels is between someone who is of the new world and those who are of the Ainz and his tomb of Nazarick .
It's the futility that can best be described as pitting a high school sports team against a major league team, and the strongest amongst that high school team is often barely at the level of a college athlete .
The slaughter and overkill is entertaining for awhile, then you start to feel somewhat bad that all these characters usually have no idea just how much of a losing battle that they are fighting.
@@RichterfanReborn89 while i do believe thats the point, which is why the writer focuses on the people from the new world so much, i get why you might not enjoy it.
@@davidc. At the end of the day, this show is about being Ainz and company being good at playing the bad guys and doing evil stuff in the process of taking over the world 🌎.
Believe me I'm down for the wholesale beat down of most of the characters of the new world, I just wish it was a midge closer like they were 60-70 mostly, and a few that approached 80 , that way it's not entirely the one sided beat down that happens because most of the people of the new world don't even approach 50
@@RichterfanReborn89 there *will* be worthy opponents for Ainz in this season
@@RichterfanReborn89 PDL is here boy!! Chill
I saw several anime shows and across the seasons there is always at least one or more opening which i don't like for one reason or another, but for Overlord I love the opening of each season so far. The music is amazing, and the images (that work as a preview of things that you will eventually see on the season) are even better.
I like how you can see every known guild member of AOG in the first second. Like they don’t have to do that because problably none of them will ever appear in the story, but they did anyway.
This has to by far be the best opening overlord has made so far, every time I replay it the start is just telling me that I'm right ever time.
Определённо шикарный опенинг, пересмотрел 4 раза перед тем как начать смотреть 4 сезон)
Согласен
¿Solo 4 veces?
Да
У Повелителя всегда шикарные опенинги ,и со стророны красоты и со стороны музыки
i love how they are shown to be epic in the opening and then die 5 seconds later in the series!
The band and OP visuals are always phenomenal for Overlord!
I’ve read all the Light Novel volumes waiting and I’m so excited
All of the overlord ops are bangers exspecially op 3 and 4. All in all on of my all time favorite animes!
I love how different it sounds from other anime openings and it really makes me excited to meet all the new characters
1:06 is my favourite part, but to be honest, everything about this opening is my favourite.
Overlord OP's never miss! All 4 of them are absolute bangers 🎶🎶🎶🎶
Good Opening, song really goes wellwith the aesthectic. Was hoping for Myth and Roid thou
The singer from M&R does the ending theme
@@ShinoHolmes
*former singer
This is the best intro yet, hands-down. I especially *love* the silhouettes of Ainz's guild mates at the beginning.
Overlord openings never miss🙏
i just happened to search this up 2 years after it came out. I can't wait for the next piece of Overlord media
Each time i see the final shot of Ainz and the still unknown man floating in mid air gives me chills.
None other character in the series except those realated to Nazarick have ever been shown to have the ability to fly, so this man feels like a huge threat
It's actually known who it is. I think it was shown in episode 1 of the second season.
It’s the platinum dragon lord, he’s probably the strongest new world character. But shaltear fully equipped can beat him. So he’s not that big of a threat, since the floor guardians can beat him.
@@pandrific3469 ... don't spoil others, let them enjoy the anime
@@Shinsu777 it… literally mentions him in season 1…. Bro…
@@Shinsu777 and you should by now assume everyone in nazerick is so overpowered compared to new world ppl. That’s the point of the anime
i expected so much from this opening and they didn’t disappoint 🔥
So I am relatively new to anime in general. Read about this one in a Reddit recommendation. I was instantly addicted, watched all 4 seasons in less than a month and now I just watch this once a week until we get a new season.
Always getting chills from these ops, especially this one at the beginning
Overlord is one of the few anime where all the openings are great 🖤
0:29 yooo tf is bob the builder doing here 😭
I love how until the end, without prior knowledge, you can't tell Ains and Co are the main cast. It's framed with the humans as the protags fighting off this great evil.
they never miss on the openings
Anyone else smile when the princess smiles with her evil smile?
Smiles in Yandere
@@tealpixel8872 lol
no i just shout psycho
My favorite shot is the one part where Jircniv is smiling but it's clearly a nervous smile, like he lost all of his cool image from the previous season and is slowly collapsing now that he realizes he has no chance of winning against Ainz.
I smile... Imagining her torn limb from limb, skinned Bolton style and eyes pecked out by crows, and all her hopes and dreams crushed. But that's not what you meant right?
AAAAAAA, IM A SIMP OF OVERLORD Shalteer Bloodfallen my crush, Pandora's actor too
1:04 honestly that’s just such good animation. Overlord never disappoints. One of my favorite stories.
Might just be my favorite OP. So different from the previous ones and once it hits, it hits HARD
Nigredo in the opening makes me, excited to finally see her animated!!! One of Albedos sisters!!
This op goes so hard and I love it because it matches the show so well it’s one of my favorites
Lead and Yor are freaking awesome. I love them.
this is by far my favorite overlord op and arguably the best one i've heard in a while
Brain Unglass was already having PTSD after meeting Shaltear....then he meets Sebas, followed by Ainz and now he's probably fighting Cocytus at some point in the opening?
That man just can't seem to ever catch a break when it comes to meeting people who break expectations and limits....
Honestly, as a proper warrior, fighting Cocytus is a great honor. Even the Lizardmen agree on this.
Brain might as well end up as Ainz’s test subject.
Well, at least he tried to fight Cocytus. Poor Brain.
best anime . but if you also read the light novel ... it's divine. I advise everyone to delve into the world OVERLORD! Thank you for giving me such a masterpiece!
Every Overlord op is pure gold
