During a carriage ride to Re-Estize, the two are joined by Shalltear Bloodfallen and her two Vampire Brides. Zach, a human the two hired, sells them out to a mercenary group who plan to ambush them outside the city. The young lady is actually Solution Epsilon, who alongside Sebas Tian are posing as members of a noble family from the Baharuth Empire.
Haven't watch part 2 of the recap yet but from my experience from this, mostly likely it will also be a disappointment.Īrt: 3 (they should have improved the fight scenes.)īasically if you haven't watch the TV series yet and doesn't want hearing the OP, ED, and previews go for it.In E-Rantel, a young mistress complains about her food, causing a scene at the inn she and her butler are staying. Helmet buy using an illusion to fool them). They even remove some parts (example: where the party Swords of Darkness hired the MC, the MC showed his face under his The added "scene was just *SPOILER ALERT* the MC in his real body booting up the dive machine and that's it. It's been so long since I've watch the series so when the season 2 was announce, the recap movies was a good refresher to quench my hype. Like what the description says, it's the recap on the first half of the TV series (ep 1~7). It's just the same thing, minus a couple scenes stuck together and thrown in the theater for money money money.
So yeah, if you're going into this movie expecting something different or better from the TV anime, then don't. The music hasn't changed and it is passable. The only thing saving this movie is the fact that it's Overlord, Momonga is cool, Albedo is sexy and funny, and all the characters are basically a joy to watch.
You could watch the TV show and it wouldn't make much difference apart from giving you the full story. The animation is the same, the CG fights are the same etc. It adds NOTHING to the TV anime, like new scenes or dialogue (apart from the 30-second scene in the beginning), and improves NOTHING even though Madhouse should have had enough time to up the quality even by a bit. So here I am writing a review for anyone who might be about to dive into the movie with any sort of heightened expectations. I have to say, however, that even as a fan of the original series, I was quite disappointed. I don't know about anyone else, but that's the main reason I personally watch recap movies in the first place. But if you have more time in your hands, i recommend just rewatching the anime for the full ride.Īs Overlord season 2 draws closer and closer, I decided to watch the first recap movie to refresh my memory of the events from the first season and see some improvements over the TV anime that I very much enjoyed. You could consider watching the movie it summed up the first-half well and with more time on our hands.
I recommend you watch the anime, however if you’re waiting for the second season like I do.
It’s fun imagining ourselves as the Overlord, which could take over the world easily. I enjoy theĪnime, and seeing the recap movie helps me remember the fun times I had watching the anime in the first place. It also help us remind of what happened in the story, so when the second season hits we would felt like theres no gap from season 1 to season 2. However, in a sense the movie helps hyped up the story for the upcoming Second season. There’s basically nothing more to say, if you've watched the anime watching the movie will probably disappoint some of you, since it doesn’t add more to the plot of the story which we have been dying to know more off. This Movie is a summary of the first half of the anime Overlord.
