Anime Expo 2018: Overlord III Premiere Report

So the later half volume 8 is adapted in the first episode,figured on that,and another drama CD is adapted,so a bonus.


Hmm my guess episode 2 should start with volume 7 and before the start of vol 9 we'll see the first half of volume 8.

Nothing from the Drama Cds was animated, Also the first 5 ep are all for vol 8, vol 7-9 will be after as they go hand in hand.

Hahahaha, no way.
That would be a terrible idea. Volume 8's content is so much easier to adapt than any other content thus far (2 Side Stories from before volume 5), it would take 3 episodes max to get everything important presented in a proper pacing (If they really try, they can do it in 2, rushing just a tad bit some things).

This is finally their opportunity to adapt without rushing through important content nor ruining the storytelling (as usual) both Volume 7 and 9 in a higher number of episodes.

The director seem to be very aware of the time constraint issues they had thus far. As if they would be stupid enough not to dedicate much more time for 2 sole volumes for once, when they will finally have a opportunity to do so thanks to Volume 8's content lol

The book may have 400+ pages, but it's one rare example of trimmable book in the series in terms of significant content. Dedicate 5 episodes to it would be the death of yet another 2 whole arcs, most likely.

How did you come up with weird names like Peroroncino and Touch Me?

Maruyama: I have no idea. They just come to me.

Well then, who is "best girl"?

Maruyama: That would be Renner the Golden Princess, because she's the most absolutely messed up in the head.

Itou: Well to be fair, that's all of them! They have to all be Best Girl for me as well, because they're all completely crazy in some way.

Can we expect to see more of Evileye in future volumes? And will Hamsuke ever find a mate?

Maruyama: You will definitely see more of Evileye in the future. But as for Hamsuke, it is hopeless. No way.

Don't you ever laugh at me.

Hope this crushes you for that remark.
