I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! Is an odd Isekai series that has mechas, action, and an edgy main character. It would be as if Eminence in Shadow and Knights & Magic had a child, so fans of those series will surely feel attracted to this new anime releasing on April 6, 2025.

The story is about a young and naive fellow who suffers due to his righteous and kind nature. Meanwhile, a dark God that feeds on human despair preys on his struggles. But when his favorite toy decides to end his miserable life, this evil God decides to grant him the 'choice' of reincarnating him into a sci-fantasy universe. The MC accepts, and unlike what this mysterious entity expected, Liam Banfield (as he is reborn) begins to make it big time. This time he decided to be ruthless and evil, assuming his role as a Galactic Overlord.
