Trivia

 * The term "Episode" is actually used to describe the main chapters of the manga while "Chapter" is used to differentiate the intermissions from the main stories. The Special remains as it is.
 * Each manga tankoubon is packed with extra information in the form of intermissions with each focusing on one particular subject that is otherwise not easily obtained for those who do not read the Light Novels though the amount of information isn't as detailed.
 * Chapter 6's title is actually "Healing Portion" in the tankoubon, a grammatical mistake.
 * The July 2023 issue of Kadokawa's Monthly Comp Ace magazine published on May 25 was announced to be the final chapter of the first part of Hugin Miyama and Satoshi Ōshio's Overlord manga.
 * On September 20, 2023 in a tweet by Maruyama it was announced that Hugin Miyama would no longer be working as an artist for the manga.
