I have only seen Konosuba and Re Zero. Is there a lot of jokes that will be missed from Overlord and Youjo Senki?

I never picked them up because I thought they were not my thing. But maybe I should watch them before this show now.

Each show gets the same amount of jokes and references made at its expense, I would definitely watch every show before starting this for maximum enjoyment.

You probably won't enjoy it as much especially given how Overlord seems to be the center center of the show, but I think it would still be enjoyable

Youjo senki & overlord are probably the two shows you can get away the most with having not seen, though you can try watching those two shows at some point.



It’s okay to look back at the past, just don’t stare too long

The humour seems to be mainly based around the interactions between the characters, so knowing them will help. I think if you watched the first 3 episodes of both shows you'd understand the characters well enough to get most of the jokes.

Neither of them are just watch animes in my opinion.

Enjoying the humor in Isekai Quartet just fine.

And I have no intentions of watching Youjo Senki.

Just a personal opinion but having watched all four in their entirety, I can for certain that this show is very entertaining and the jokes on point for the most bit!

I highly recommended you to give Youjo Senki a try, at least. There haven’t plenty of jokes or references to Youjo Senki yet that is out of the blue but those subtle ones are hilarious if you’ve experienced the tv series beforehand.

I think all you need to know about Overlord are the characters and since they are all pretty flat, they are NPCs after all, their personalities are pretty obvious.

Youjo Senki doesnt seem to add any in universe joke, being x is the scumbag who plays god and sent Tanya to a world of hell (think WW1 style)
