They're only available for a limited time.

Oh and for those wondering about the community made Overlord Figure, we're currently working on the 3D render while waiting licensor approval for the release timeline!

I haven't even begun the video, but please begin doing more Overlord content again. Those were some of your best videos!

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE RUUUNNNEESSSS (Movie Reference)

Just literally came back from watching the movie with a friend. I enjoyed the movie especially getting to see a POV without Ainz inner monologue but still seeing how awkward he is when it comes to talking. I wished we got a bit more animated fights since it would be nice seeing Ainz go full wizard mode but either way still enjoyed it P.S THIS COMMENT WAS SPONSORED BY RUNE TECH

Finally you are now covering the overlord again

I remember how weird I thought season 4 was for just straight up skipping two volumes at the time. But then realized, yeah it’s really more of an isolated event. Overall, while the movie was by no means perfect, as a fan, I still found it highly enjoyable even if I was a little irked at some of the missing scenes and messed up nuances. And diving into cut stuff is always fun anyways.

The movie ended up being so damn good. Glad to see you doing Overlord content again!

Loved seeing the movie in Cinemas. OST went hard with the sound system.

[VladdViever]

I watched it in theaters last week and the movie was fantastic. Cannot wait for you to cover cut content

The overlord movie was phenomenal. It was the highlight of the past 2 months for me, hands down. The twists, the turns, the genius of the Sorceror King, Ains Ooal Gown- it was sublime!

[Gameboy]

The movie was great, a lot of fun. I heard is essentially tries to cram in 2 entire volumes worth of content and it's admittedly VERY noticeable, but as a whole if you like Overlord you'll like it.

I've heard talk about Neia from LN readers and i too am a huge fan of her character now that i've seen the movie. She made the plot just feel alot more interesting for reason i cant get into because of spoilers.

bro used a princess as a sword, that shit was wild lmao.

As a casual Overlord fan, I really enjoyed the movie. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the new characters and the sections of the movie that didn’t feature Ainz. Even my mom, who never watched Overlord, enjoyed the film; I'm hoping to convince her and my dad to watch the series. Really exited to see your Cut Content video.

The Movie is just a Big Advertisement for Runes. I laughed so hard when i realized the entire plot reading it. No ones even listening on bone daddy's Advertising lol

[dietwater]

The movie was incredible. Absolute cinema. Really enjoyed the heck out of it, especially after marathoning the four seasons in less than a week.
If you love Overlord, you will love this movie.

Thanks for the quick video! Your content always makes my day! the movie was amazing but the theme was A BANGER like always! Your overlord cut content videos made me your fan in the first place and look forward to those of the movie! Danmachi and re zero are great too! you always add a layer of enjoyment to the series! thanks!

[echo-e]

Just watched the movie, and I have to say, it was amazing! Good battles, funny scenes spread out here and there, and amazing character introductions!

As someone who watched it and is caught up with the light novels, I liked that the movie seemed to understand what it wanted to focus it's pacing around, usually you'd expect things to be cut, but it seemed they had a clear goal of what to cut and why in order to keep the vision of the movie focused. You'd see reviews criticizing this as "dense" and "low action" but to me, it felt like the movie focused on exactly what I wanted to see. I'd almost say it was made for light novel fans because of the pacing making it easy to lose track of how much time is passing.
I was also surprised how good the dub was, of course as a native English speaker I could nitpick it in ways I couldn't the sub, where my lack of knowledge makes me fill in blanks favorably, but they both succeeded in capturing the mood and emotion of scenes. I'd recommend seeing both because the dub has moments where some lines are lost in the mixing, and the sub requires you to look away when audiovisual impact is important. Dub then Sub i'd say.
Also you got to see the movie in Japan? Did you get the ghost ship of katze plains? Lucky.
Spoilers here, kind of, but back to what was focused on, I like that they focused less on Ainz fighting and more on character interactions and New Worlders fighting. I feel it really chose Overlord's strengths to focus on, especially considering the fighting is at its best when it's more mix of step by step game guide as well as fight, like Shalltear or Mare, and this kind of fighting isn't really in the Sacred Kingdom.

0:28 So it's kinda like Rogue One in Star Wars, filling in gaps in our information, while not changing anything.
