The Japanese anime television series Overlord is based on Kugane Maruyama’s light book series of the same name, which he also illustrated. The production company Madhouse oversaw the creation of the show, with Naoyuki It directing it and Yukie Sugawara writing the script. Lastly, Shoji Katayama provided composited music for the anime.

Overlord aired on AT-X from July 7 to September 29, 2015, with additional broadcasts by Tokyo MX, Sun TV, KBS Kyoto, TV Aichi, and BS11. The sequel was shown on MBS. From January 10 through April 4 of this year, the second season was broadcast. From July 11 until October 2 of 2018, the third season aired.

The fourth season of Overlord was announced on May 8, 2021, with the film being released sometime in 2022. The cast and crew are set to reprise their roles for the new season. As of yet, no release date has been given for the fifth season.

Is Overlord Season 5 Now In Production?

Studio Madhouse just released the final episode of Overlord Season 4, “The Witch of the Falling Kingdom.” The producers delivered a stunning conclusion to an outstanding season that left fans wanting more of Ainz’s adventure.

Overlord is a massive hit anime series with millions of fans, which explains why they’re already anticipating Season 5. The final episode of Overlord included an shocking twist when Renner’s Demon form was revealed.

The 13th episode almost turned into a musical, and Renner’s dancing number had fans buzzing for the series’ future. The phrase “The End Begins” was used at the conclusion of the episode, suggesting that Overlord anime is only beginning. The fifth season of Overlord has not been confirmed by Netflix.

Overlord Season 5 Release Date Not Yet Confirmed

Overlord Season 3 Expected Release Date

The Overlord season 5 release date has yet to be determined. Season 5 might take years to complete due to a lack of source material. Following that, we will hypothesize when Season 5 will most likely be published. The production committee is most likely waiting for the author to release volumes 17 and 18 before beginning work on season 5.

The next volume of Overlord is expected to be released next year. Volume 16 was released in Japan in July 2022, with the English edition following in November. Fortunately, the author, Maruyama, intends to issue Volumes 17 and 18 in quick succession, ensuring that there will be enough source material for season 5 by the end of 2024.

It takes an average of 18 months to 2 years to complete the production of an anime season (from animating to dubbing). Overlord Season 5 will most certainly be published in 2026, four years from now.

Overlord Plot: Returns With A New Season?

The fifth season’s plot revolves around the Elf kingdom. Following the fall of the Kingdom, Ainz desires to take a rest. In season 4, we learnt that Ainz wants Aura and Mare to reconnect with their people, the Elves of the Kingdom of Everland. The siblings go on vacation to Everland’s Elven Kingdom.

The Slane Theocracy, on the other hand, assaults the Elven monarch, thinking that Ainz would side with the Elves, making their war against the Sorcerer Kingdom even more difficult. Season 5 of Overlord has not been revealed since there is insufficient material to adapt.

Season 5 will most likely be released in 2026. A film sequel is presently under production, although there is no set release date.

Where To Watch Overlord Season 5

Funimation and Netflix are the best legal options for seeing all of Overlord’s episodes in order. Funimation is available in the United States, whereas Netflix and Crunchyroll are available in other countries. If you have Amazon Prime, Amazon Prime Video is also the best option. Overlord Season 5 release date is not yet confirmed.

Meet The Cast In Overlord Season 5

Satoshi Hino will reprise his role as Ainz Ooal Gown, the most revered Supreme Being of Nazarick and the series’ primary protagonist. Yumi Hara will reprise her role as the high-ranking and needily-affectionate Albedo, who was revealed in Season 3 to be a virgin succubus. Sumire Uesaka reprises her role as Shalltear Bloodfallen, the harsh, icy, and dreadful, but yet rather beautiful, little monster. Kenta Myake will reprise his role as the Guardian Cocytus in Season 4.

Emiri Kat and Yumi Uchiyama will return as Aura and Mare, the gender-bending sixth-floor Guardians. Masayuki Katou is thought to be the voice of Demiurge, the blade-tailed seventh-floor Guardian and head of NPC defenses. There is no information known about the fifth season of Overlord.

The Talks On Social Media About Overlord

With the recent airing of Overlord Season 4, fans can rest easy knowing that they will not only be getting another season, but a 2D action game for the Nintendo Switch and PC as well.

According to Overlord novel author Kugane Maruyama, the next game will have a unique narrative in which Clementine, a deceased cruel psychopath, retrieves lost memories and utilizes martial arts while attempting to escape the Tomb of Nazarick. While no release date has been set, photographs of the 2D combat screen have been leaked on Twitter, and fans can’t wait to get their hands on it.

With Overlord’s previous seasons being so well-liked, fans are a little concerned about the fifth season, since many believed that the fourth season would be the series’ last. But there is good news: Overlord will return in future seasons. I’m hoping that Season 5 of Overlord will come out as soon as possible. Fans are looking forward to seeing what happens next in Overlord.

What Can We Expect From From Overlord Season 5

Overlord is a dark fantasy anime based on Kugane Maruyama‘s Japanese novel of the same name. Season 1 of Overlord was a thirteen-episode series that launched in the summer of 2015 and covered the first three volumes of the light novels. The anime adaption, produced by Madhouse and directed by Naoyuki Itou, aired from July 7 to September 29, 2015.

“Clattanoia” by OxT serves as the opening theme, while “L.L.L.” by Myth & Roid serves as the closing theme. On February 25, 2017, and March 11, 2017, two compilation anime films recounting the events of the anime television series were released in Japan. Season 2 of the anime television series, named Overlord II, was revealed at theatrical screenings of the second compilation film.

The third season of Overlord was announced on April 3, 2018 and is set to air on July 10, 2018. Just like the first and second seasons, it will be thirteen episodes long and cover light novel volumes 4 to 6. The opening theme song will be “Voracity” by Myth & Roid while the closing song will be “Silent Solitude” sung by OxT.

The Overlord III anime originally aired from July 10th to October 2nd, 2018, and is based on volumes 7-9 of the light novel series. On May 8th, 2021, it was announced in a special broadcast by the cast that season 4 (Overlord IV) is currently in production.

According to an announcement made on March 12, 2022, the fourth installment of The Overlord anime TV series will debut on July 5, 2022. “HOLLOW HUNGER” by OxT is the opening theme, while Mayu Maeshima’s “No Man’s Dawn” is the closing song. Volumes 10, 11, and 14 of the light novel series are included.

As of right now, Studio Madhouse is pour all their focus into the film, thus season 5 has not been announced yet. But because Overlord is so massively popular with a rating of 8.32 on My Anime List, an announcement for the fifth season it’s only a formality at this point.
