Overlord Academy



""That makes you a student, and we don't allow transfers. You're either leaving with a diploma or in a body bag. Welcome to Overlord Academy.""

- Sadist Secretary Janet welcomes Arthur Vogel to Overlord Academy

Overlord Academy is a weekly webcomic about an oboist who accidentally transfers into a school for evil overlords.

This Web Comic provides Examples of the following Tropes:
"Thae: Nova, your love hurts!"
 * Aerith and Bob: Arthur the Naive Newcomer meets Hiro, Thaelia, Nobara, and... Kevin
 * Berserk Button: Thae definitely has one when it comes to Hiro.
 * Just... don't mess with Nova.
 * Bi the Way: Kevin
 * Boobs of Steel: Thae is by far the most busty member of the cast. She's also a ninja.
 * Butt Monkey: Poor A-san can't seem to catch a break.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Kevin
 * Combat Stilettos: Action Girl Thae is rarely seen out of her stilettos.
 * Crash Into Hello: A-san and Kevin's first meeting
 * Cute Bruiser: Nova
 * Destination Defenestration: Nova's favorite method of disposing of anyone who pushes her Berserk Button.
 * Elaborate University High: Somewhat subverted, since according to Thae, Overlord Academy actually is this.
 * Elegant Gothic Lolita: Nova's preferred style of dress.
 * Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: Darku-san
 * Extranormal Institute: Overlord Academy itself.
 * Form-Fitting Wardrobe: Thae, with bonus Magic Skirt
 * Functional Magic: Thae and Nova both seem to take for granted that magic exists, and Nova even uses it to heal A-san's head.
 * The Glomp: Nova literally knocks Thae to the ground in her first appearance.

"Thae: Hiro. It's been too long.
 * Gratuitous Japanese: Mostly the use of honorifics in nicknames. Somewhat justified by the fact that Nova is actually Japanese.
 * Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Hiro and Thae. He's 6'2", she's 5'0".
 * I Call It Vera: Hiro has "Alice"
 * Idiot Hair: A-san's cowlick
 * Improbable Hairstyle: Thae somehow manages to be an Action Girl ninja with hair down to her ankles.
 * In-Series Nickname: "A-san" for Arthur, despite his objections. "Darku-san" for his roommate. Both courtesy of Nova and Thae.
 * "Nova" and "Thae" are actually nicknames, too, for Nobara and Thaelia respectively.
 * Lovable Sex Maniac: Kevin
 * Miko: Word of God says that Nova works as a shrine maiden part-time. This may or may not have anything to do with her apparent magical powers.
 * Mr. Exposition: Thae plays this to A-san's The Watson for a lot of the first chapter.
 * Ms. Fanservice: Thae, both in the comic and in the voting rewards.
 * Peek-a-Bangs: Hiro has the entire right side of his face obscured by bright blue bangs.
 * Rapunzel Hair: Thae
 * Turns into a Braid of Action when she's in ninja gear.
 * Sai Guy: Thae's weapon of choice.
 * Sexy Santa Dress: Thae in the Christmas voting reward.
 * School Uniforms Are the New Black: Thae wears the school uniform for much of the first chapter, despite the fact that school hasn't even started yet.
 * Spy Catsuit: Thae, in her first appearance.
 * Hiro seems to be wearing a matching one underneath his leather jacket.
 * Stranger in a Strange School
 * Super Strength: Nova
 * Super-Hero School: Inverted with the titular academy being a school for villains. Word of God says that there is also a Hero Academy, though it has yet to appear.
 * Villain Protagonist: Every main character aside from A-san is voluntarily attending a school dedicated to teaching them how to be evil.
 * The Watson: A-san acts as this a lot in the first chapter.
 * Webcomic Time: Lampshaded by Hiro, who made his second appearance in the comic after a year's worth of strips.

Hiro: It's been a DAY."


 * Yaoi Fangirl: Thae accuses Nova of being this.
