a very well written novel.... just... extremely slow. as in Ainz the mc we all wanna see... still isnt back after 15 chapters... or possibly longer... idk. the author clearly has talent, it just kinda hard to wait, especially when we get teases about how horrible momonga's life iz back on future earth.

It's sad because while there are some who want Ainz to return faster, I also have a bunch of people on other sites telling me they don't want him to return so quickly and that I should take my time developing the world more before bringing him back. If I just wanted to tell a story about Ainz stomping I wouldn't have gone in this direction. I would have probably written story about him being transported into the age of the eight greed kings or do a crossover with another franchise. The story is about change and transformation of a world shaped by Ainz's legacy, and how Ainz interacts and reacts to these changes. 17 chapters really isn't that much. It's around 120 or so pages, which is paltry compared to the buildup used in real fantasy literature. I get that people want their instant gratification on this website, but I think it's strange to call a novel like this slow because if anything, I think I rush the plot lines and create a very shallow setting as a result of trying to satisfy admittedly quite impatient reader. :/ There are many critiques to be made about my work, and the primary one is that frankly the world is too barebones and nothing is fleshed out as much as it should be. Another Overlord fanfic, Valkyrie's Shadow, is what I consider the golden standard of fanfic writing. Absolute perfection and far better writing than mine. However, most Overlord fans do not have the patience to digest a masterpiece like that because they would rather see some SAO-type plot where the MC goes around blowing stuff up with a harem than incredible world building and dialogue. Overlord is more than that, imo. Anyway, thanks for reading my rant and as always I'm grateful for the review.

I felt this too, on the other hand, it is really really really well one so I loved it (written from just before he enters).

While I love this, I personally find it hard to find motivation to read knowing Ainz takes so long to come back... I almost get the feeling that if i just skip to whenever he comes back, I won't mind missing what happened before...
