Fans have been waiting impatiently for the next season 4 of their favourite Anime series, “Overlord”. It has been two years since the third season of the series ended and so far, there is no piece of information regarding the release date of the upcoming season 4. For those who don’t know, Overlord is a popular series that has been critically acclaimed and loved by fans from all around the world. It is based on Japanese novel series, that credit of writing of which goes to Kugane Maruyama. The series is an adaptation of this novel and so far, three-season of this series has been released on various global platforms. The genre of the series is dark fantasy and Isekai.
Kudos to director Naoyuki Ito for directing such a spectacular series and is produced under the production studio of Madhouse. The series is licensed under Madman Entertainment and Funimation and have also released on the original networks including Tokyo MX, KBS, MBS and others. Before we dive into the release date of “Overload Season 4”, we would like to give our reader an overview of the storyline of the series. The plot of the upcoming season 4 will start from where season 3 of the overlord was left.
As of now, 14 volumes of the novel has been released and it has been said that the fourth sequel will start from the tenth volume, the title of which is “The Ruler of Conspiracy”. In this, we will see Ainz Ooal Gown decides to convert his empire into bliss, where there will be no discrimination on the basis of race and cast. Ainz decision will not be liked by the other neighbouring empires and they along with Ainz’s enemies will try to conspire a plan to protest the decision of Ainz. Though no official announcement has been made by the creator of Overlord, the probability that a new season will release soon is quite high.
The reason being that the series got so much popularity that anyone in their right senses would not shut down such a profitable series. We will like to mention here that the novel alone sold more than 2 lakh copies. If the figures are not enough to justify how much craze people have for this series, then, we would also like to highlight this fact, that the “Overlord Season 4” was the most searched in google and in fact it still gets more than 3 lakh searches per month. Also, as per the sources, the making of the Anime series was started way before the Wuhan virus pandemic hit the world, but after the situation got worse, the making of it was halted. So if we have to make an assumption regarding the released date of “Overlord Season 4”, then, the new season might be released by the end of the year 2021.
