Overlord
Overlord flips the chosen one narrative on its head: here, the protagonist is a compelling villain building his empire without hesitation. An addictive blend of unchecked power wrapped in existential reflections on loneliness and emptiness.
Ideal if you're looking for diving into a morally gray protagonist wielding absolute power in a fantasy world where corruption is inevitable.
The story takes place in the year 2138 when virtual reality gaming is booming. Yggdrasil, a popular online game is quietly shut down one day. However, the protagonist Momonga decides to not log out. Momonga is then transformed into the image of a skeleton as "the most powerful wizard." The world continues to change, with non-player characters (NPCs) beginning to feel emotion. Having no parents, friends, or place in society, this ordinary young man Momonga then strives to take over the new world the game has become. (Source: Anime News Network)
