And, no guys, Hamsuke is a hamster, not a flying squirrel, thank you very much. Momonga : Did you know that Momonga ( モモンガ ) is the Japanese word for ‘flyin g squirrel’? I don’t know what kind of similarities our skeleton guy can have with flying squirrels but it’s fun to know this kind of things. There was no budget issue in the making of Overlord. The sound effects of the anime are quite impressive as well. It’s been a while since I saw a n opening song with lyrics that come from the actual world and environment of the anime, quite refreshing. The opening song is so catchy and to- the – point with the plot of the show, which makes it very interesting. The music and sound were such a big surprise to me. Especially the magic spells effects! Really well made. The artwork is very colorful with really nice character designs and the overall flaw of the anime is pretty much flawless. Madhouse animation once again was up to some really good standards, with the CGIs and the character details being top notch. Very pleased with the aesthetic qualities of the anime, even though that kind of style and design is not my cup of tea. Did I mention that he made one of the NPCs, Albedo, who was originally programmed to be a bitchy slut, to fall deeply in love with him by changing her personality settings the last minute? Ah yeah, that too. Sounds familiar? Leaving him with no other option, he starts exploring the world, taking the name of Ainz Ooal Gown, to see if anyone else from the ‘real world’ is trapped in the game like him and to find anyone who could help him understand what is happening. Momonga has been trapped in the form of his game avatar, leaving him unable to u se the player functions, or even worse, log out. All the NPCs came to life and they were faithful and loyal to his greatness, referring to him as the Supreme Being. The server never really shut down, or did it? T he world he has been transferred in looks like Yggdrasil but it is more like another reality within the game. Even though everyone from the guild moved on with their lives, he still wanted to play and meet them once mor e before the servers shut down, thus he stayed until the last playable minute online. He used to be part of one of the most powerful guilds in the game, Ainz Ooal Gown, when the game was up and running, making him one of the most potent players in the world of Yggdrasil. Momonga-sama, a pretty weird figure and the main character of the story, looks like an undead skeleton, aka Lich.

He then decides to go on a mission in order to find out what happened and solve the mystery. T o his surprise, they never did, and he finds himself in an alternate reality where his true form is his own character, the world is like an RPG, and the NPCs have come to life. Thinking about the good times they had together playing the game, he decides to stay online until the servers shut down. Momonga, the MC, part of a guild called Ainz Ooal Gown, is inviting the last members that are left for one last gathering in the game, but unfortunately, only one was able to make it.

After 12 years that the game has been running, the game servers were to be shut down for good. In the year 2126, Yggdrasil was released, a Dive Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game or DMMORPG, that became a huge success due to the ability of the player to interact with the game itself. I s tarted watching this show with no expectations whatsoever, thinking that it will be an SAO rip-off with less attractive characters, but I was wrong.
