User blog:Leobiendurana/Does The Anime Adaptation Require Improvements?

Although I have to give my utmost thanks for the anime adaptation by introducing me to the world of Maruyama's Overlord, and this awesome wikia community, I think the anime adaptation could be better. Somehow, around the Dark Warrior Arc, it felt really fast - with missing important dialogues, details, plus some shady animations here and there. - I wish it received the same treatment from other Mad House titles as well. (HxH 2011 as a prime example)

Speaking of examples, the anime's Episode 10 is an example of a rushed episode, cramming chapters of the Volume 3 in one episode, lacking introduction to the characters especially with Brain and his struggle. Reading the light novel is far better - with uncanny eye for detail and the impression that you're reading it with the atmosphere of the environment around you. Fear, anxiety... etc. all will be felt as a fellow human and a reader. The anime doesn't need to be filled with the exact amount of details, however it needs to project the most important ones.

(I actually made this post because I received a call from a friend, asking what happened to episode 10 as a whole. He's not a reader of the LN at that moment so I'm pretty sure there's a reason why he didn't get some of the episode's scenes. Anyway, he's reading the LN right now because I asked him to do it, but not by force.)

I wrote this not to rant, but to ask the community if the anime adaptation is good enough for you? If not, what would you suggest to improve it? - Especially if the show will receive a Season 2 treatment. As a personal opinion, the animation could be better (doesn't matter that much), and maybe they should stick with So-Bin's designs more (I'm looking at you, True Form Shalltear). Also, narratives could be added similar to what HxH 2011 offered with swift, and easy to understand narration that will let the viewers glued on their seats. Perhaps if the animations couldn't cut it, the narration will do. I'd like it to be voiced by Ainz as well.

Thanks for reading, and as always...
