About Overlord
Overlord is a dark fantasy anime series based on the light novels by Kugane Maruyama. Set in a world where an MMORPG becomes reality, the story follows Momonga, a powerful player who stays logged in after the game’s servers shut down — taking on the identity of his in-game character, Ainz Ooal Gown, as he seeks to uncover the truth of this strange new world.
Produced by Madhouse, the anime first premiered in Japan in 2015 and spans four seasons. Blending action, strategy, and world domination themes, Overlord has gained widespread acclaim for its world-building and complex anti-hero narrative.
