Apart from shouting attack names

This was one of my biggest gripe with Overlord, much to my partner's disappointment (maybe). The main character wasn't just saying the names, but he was explaining the moves and it felt very "telling, not showing." It came across as condescending to me and I accepted that I was not the target demographic for this anime.
