Catching up through the archive and just finished the Devil May Cry 3 ep. Talk about ultimate power slug bosses reminded me that Overlord 2 did that same deal. I guess idiots turning into slug monsters by shoving ALL THE POWER into themselves is just a thing.
It’s a pretty easy way of demonstrating a big bad’s hubris. JRPGs use it a lot, so does Resident Evil 2.
As an aside, those Overlord games would be pretty fun episodes. Those little goblins are some of the most lovable monsters in the medium.
