Review of Overlord II

Story (7/10) - As with most second seasons of anime, it isn't really focused on story. But despite that, it was just as nice as the first season of this series. Art (8/10) - Madhouse did an amazing job in animating the first Overlord, and continues to be seen in this second season. Sound (7/10) - An upbeat introduction song accompanied by a sequence of events showcasing the main characters and/ or groups that are already known and yet to be introduced. Each episode ends with a slower, softer melody that reflects the inner, emotional sides of the characters. Character (6/10) - In this season, wesee what the original Overlord was missing, character development. As is the trend with most sequels to an anime, we get to see a little perspective that really serves as the true story to the overall plot.

Enjoyment (7/10) - This season was just as enjoyable as the original. The story makes room so we can really get-to-know the characters inhabiting it so we can be all-the-more invested for what's to come.

Overall (7/10) - This was a classic second season to a fine anime. The original Overlord set-up the story while this brought us a little closer to the characters. With a third season already planned, it's going to be interesting to see what comes next.
