Peak Anime,
Seeing Lord Ainz being loved by People and how he manipulated the people into thanking him was beautiful,
It's hilarious how you can see the obvious rune sales pitch and acting from lots of characters but no one understood it or figured out the true intent behind it.

I was captivated by the film's epic battle scenes and intricate world-building. Based on the popular Japanese light novel series, this anime film adaptation brings to life the Roble Holy Kingdom arc. Directed by Naoyuki Itou, this film is a must-watch for fans of the Overlord series.
