'Overlord: Holy Kingdom Arc' Hits Theaters This September

Jul 08 (News On Japan) - The Roble Holy Kingdom, led by Holy Queen Calca, had enjoyed a peaceful era protected by its long-standing fortress walls. However, this tranquility was shattered by the sudden invasion of the Demon Emperor Jaldabaoth and his allied demi-human army.

Despite the combined efforts of the Holy Knight Captain Remedios and the High Priest Kelart, the kingdom's forces found themselves helpless against Jaldabaoth's overwhelming power, facing the brink of national collapse. In a desperate bid for assistance, Remedios, accompanied by her Holy Knights and her follower Neia, set out to seek aid from a certain country.

That country was the Sorcerer Kingdom of Ainz Ooal Gown, a grotesque nation ruled by the undead, despised by the people of the Holy Kingdom.
