History YMMV / Overlord2012

** The phrase "like a puppet whose strings had been cut" is seen used so often in the lightnovels that it's become a meme. The English translators even poke fun at it in their parody series Ovallord.

* LawfulGood:
** Sebas Tian's alignment listed in the character sheets is Great Good with a +300 sense of justice.
** Yuri/Alpha is good aligned with a +150 sense of justice.

** Quite a number of novel readers were ''not'' pleased by the author's decision [[spoiler:to kill Arche off in the LN and preferred a fate similar to the one she received in the original Web Novel]].

* NeutralEvil:
** Mare is listed as such in his character sheet.
** Aura is listed as such in her character sheet, much like her brother.
* NeutralGood:
** CZ/ Shiru, the robotic maid is considered to be this.

* TheWoobie: Climb clearly qualifies. Born in abysmal poverty, orphaned, went to bed hungry every night, adults destroying the house he built for himself at the age of 5, [[ForTheEvulz for fun]], left under a makeshift roof of rags in a downpour to die of disease, taken in by a beautiful princess, [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe out of pity]], and hated by the nobility for it, [[VictimBlaming bullied by the "noble" castle knights because ''he'' is the only one the princess can trust to be her bodyguard]], [[ShaggyDogStory and every time he performs a legitimate act of heroism, he fails to make a difference.]] [[HardWorkHardlyWorks That and the fact that he inherently has no talent for martial skills or magic,]] and it's a true wonder he can even function at all. It gets worse when it comes to light that Reneer is in love with him [[spoiler:and that due to her own psychological baggage, her idea of "love" consists of chaining up Climb like an animal and making him her SexSlave.]]

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Quite a few fans were ''not'' happy with the way the fight between Shalltear Bloodfallen and Brain Ungulus was animated. The compression of several chapters into a few minutes (if that) makes Brain look like an arrogant fool and a coward and doesn't provide an accurate depiction of his growing desperation and helplessness before finally breaking and fleeing in terror.

* Fan Nickname: "Papa Bones" for Momonga/Ainz.

* ThatOneBoss: For the ''Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick'' this title can easily be assigned to Victim, Guardian of the 8th Level. The irony of it all [[spoiler:Victim is only level 35 and the weakest Guardian. His power comes from being able to sacrifice himself, which causes an onslaught of crippling status debuffs and movement lockdown effects, allowing the rest of his forces to kill the invaders at their leisure.]] To emphasis this point: no Raid Party in Yggdrasil [[TotalPartyKill had ever gotten past it]].
