description Overlord IV Overview

E-Rantel, the capital city of the newly established Sorcerer Kingdom, suffers from a dire shortage of goods. Once a prosperous city known for its trade, it now faces a crisis due to its caution—or even fear—of its king, Ainz Ooal Gown. To make amends, Ainz sends Albedo to the city as a diplomatic envoy. Meanwhile, the cardinals of the Slane Theocracy discuss how to retaliate against Ainz after his attack crippled the Re-Estize Kingdom's army, plotting for the Baharuth Empire to take over the Sorcerer Kingdom.

help Overlord IV FAQ

Why is E-Rantel struggling at the start of Overlord IV?

E-Rantel has become the capital of Ainz Ooal Gown's Sorcerer Kingdom, so merchants and neighboring states are afraid to trade normally. Season IV uses that shortage to show the political cost of Ainz ruling a human city.

What light novel material does Overlord IV cover?

Overlord IV adapts later arcs from Kugane Maruyama's novels, including the Sorcerer Kingdom's diplomacy, the Dwarf Kingdom, and the fall of Re-Estize. The anime was produced by Madhouse and aired in 2022.

Do I need to watch the Overlord: The Sacred Kingdom movie before Overlord IV?

No, you can watch Overlord IV after the first three TV seasons. The Sacred Kingdom film adapts the Holy Kingdom material from the novels, while Season IV focuses heavily on Ainz, Albedo, the dwarves, and Re-Estize.

Why does Ainz send Albedo to the Re-Estize Kingdom?

Ainz sends Albedo as a political representative because the Sorcerer Kingdom needs diplomacy as much as military power. Her visit highlights the gap between Nazarick's careful plans and the fear Ainz's undead kingdom inspires.
