Yuusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shuushoku wo Ketsui Shimashita.

Dreaming of becoming a hero and vanquishing the Demon King, Raul Chaser enters the Hero Training Program in pursuit of his ambition. However, when the Demon King is defeated and peace returns to the world, the Hero Training Program is suspended indefinitely, making it impossible for anyone to become a hero.

Two years later, Raul reluctantly works at a small electronics store called Magic Shop Leon. Though the former hero-in-training is plagued by the mundanity of working in retail, everything changes with the arrival of a new hire. Appearing at first to be just a boy with good looks, "he" turns out to be a female demon by the name of Fino Bloodstone. She is not just any old demon either—Raul's new coworker is in fact the daughter of the late Demon King! Handed the responsibility of training this eccentric new employee, Raul soon finds his life becoming livelier than it ever was before.

We follow Raul a man who dreamt of becoming a Hero his whole life but when the Demon King is defeated Heroes are rendered almost obsolete. With no prospects of becoming a hero Raul decides to work at the local Magic Appliance retail store.

Enter Fino Bloodstone Daughter of the Demon King who decides to work at the same store. Raul must navigate Fino through her day to day work trying to teach her how humans behave. Having a fish out of water like Fino (whose ideas are a little erm... different from your average human) lead to some incredibly funny (& Awkward) moments. If you ... like comedy with a hearty dose of Fan Service with a side cast of fun characters, then this is the show for you. 9/10

Mixed Feelings

This anime had a great storyline, and everything would be great if it continued on like that. The plot was very solid and it was borderline slice of life. Until the nudity came in. They added it into literally every scene they could and took every opportunity possible to make the anime the most ecchi and borderline hentai as possible. Episodes were based off of something completely normal and there would just be surprise groping or moaning even though they were doing something completely normal. All I can say is that it had a lot of great potential and it disappointed me, who was expecting ... a peaceful slice of life anime. Though it was partly my fault I didn’t read the mature sign, the anime would have been so much better without the fanservice.

2nd review here so please be gentle.

Yuusha Ni Narenakat- Oh for the gods' sakes... What is with Japanese and in long anime title names????

Unlike other reviews, I'm not gonna go over the characters and summary of the story because it's in the synopsis. Besides, I'm too lazy to type that out. Thanks Review Guidelines-san.

Anyways, let's see first the story.

Story: 3
Oh where to begin. Let's see. An interesting backdrop story featuring a guy trying to be a hero, but failed to do so due to sudden changing circumstances that is beyond his control? Check. And thus having to settle for the lowest option ... available as a store clerk? Check. He works with many busty and/or sexually appealing girls (and one dude...)? Check. A new girl arrives in town? Check. Boy meets girl? Check. The main character is a cherry boy (virgin)? Check. And he clearly acts like one? Double check.
This is one of your stereotypical harem animes where it features a very boring and bland main character that was "supposedly" designed to represents the majority of the male audiences... Like every other boring and average MCs in existence... Oh wait. Forgot to mention, they are supposed to represent the majority of JAPANESE males. And it really shows in not only their manner and upbringing, but in their flaws, too. In both the characters and writing intended for the said demographics. This is one of those guilty pleasure animes that is not supposed to be taken seriously, like the anime adaptation of High school of the Dead. But even that anime has more story and things going on than this one that I'm reviewing. The story was more or less a promising adventure medieval fantasy backdrop at the beginning, but then it quickly turned into a more modernized setting where the guy works at a retail store. A store that supposedly existed in a medieval fantasy realm.... Reason? Japanese storytelling convenience. They don't even explain how they gotten to that point of civilization either. It was just there... FOR YEARS. So it just goes on as much slice of life and glorifying Japanese culture aka the work/retail culture and industry. Like any other Working (no pun intended) or job or career animes. But again with that medieval fantasy twist. But it serves no other function other than being able to touch the medieval fantasy fetish side in people and offer a demon lord's daughter as part of the *main moe fetish dish". And it doesn't ever get serious until near the end, but even that was pointless since it was more like trying to advance the overarching story, even when there was barely any development on it, therefore made the rising development almost completely out of left field.
So you ask me for the story rating? Honestly I don't watch a whole lot of animes, but I can definitely this was one of the worst one so far. Don't come here looking for a story. It's just a fanservice anime through and through. One that sometimes flits around in trying to take itself seriously, while mostly not....


Art: 6
I don't see a whole lot of animes much lately so I can't properly rate it like one of those high end critics or even reviewers here who have tons of anime under their belt. But I can definitely say it was pretty solid, especially due to the fact that they don't rely on CG. Especially during the fight scenes. Instead they use more of the traditional cell shade animations. But that unforutanetly tends to show during fight scenes where the colors look off or bland due to the time constraints and demanding poses and scenes. But it was still solid. It was not Konosuba S2E1 launch bad....
As for the characters art, some of them looked very early 2k anime style coloring and lines, but it was not that bad. The stockings on the girls looked fantastic, but due to such, it often heavily contrasted that it sometimes catches TOO well. Oh and please don't look at their toes (swimsuit ep)....
As for the fanservice aka the boobs. .....Unable to compute. Only found Phino's completely bare chests shown MANY times throughout the entire season. Airi only reveals the nipples on her pantyhose suit, otherwise the nipples are never to be seen. Only the general shape of her breasts. As for the other girls, they sadly don't get that much level of fanservice. AT ALL. Few are even exempt such as Lore. So if you were hoping for breast and nudity and fan-service diversity, the likes of which you could see in High School DxD? Sorry. You're all fresh out of luck on that one. You gonna have to settle for the main heroine, whether you like it or not.


Sound: 4
What can I say? It was pretty much stereotypical upbeat harem ecchi anime? Thus the music fitted to it as such esp in the OP and ED theme. Worse is when it gets all serious, but then the upbeat song comes into play.....


Character: 3
Oh gods... Where to start on this one. Like any other harems, the MC is as exciting as a flattened nail on a 2x4... He may be a powerful hero candidate, but that's all his redeeming features. He has no other skills. He has nothing to offer other than being the "straight man" in many wacky situations. He may be diligent worker. But that's all he is. If you are looking for a useful character that can kick butt? Sorry, not until near the end of the season, and it's highly debatable if he's even useful or redeemable during or even after the fact.
Then for the main heroine.... Well she's one of those cheery happy-go-lucky main heroines? Welcome back to the 90s tropes. She's your titular go to character for any character development and fap material.... Because that's all she is. A bundle of fanservice served on a silver platter. She's almost the only one to let it all show. And the only one you will almost ever see. The other girls? They are all chopped liver, in terms of story, development, plot (of both kinds), and so on and so on. Them being potential love interests? Pft. Fat chance. This is one of those animes where it clearly pushes for the main ship MCxMH by beating it into your head with a stick. There's no room for anyone else. And with poor screentime and development for them, you almost won't care. Though I really cared about Airi. She had some potential here.... But another terrible that wastes away good potential characters in its own narrowsighted goal. And that goal is to promote and perpetuate the MH as the absolute perfect goddess and go-to waifu that she supposedly is. Everyone else is just a mere afterthought or slight intrigue, nothing more.

Enjoyment: 3
This was not enjoyable at all. Other than the awesome old man getting his kicks off of Nova or Airi displaying her own unique brand of fanservice in the beginning and near the end, there was nothing much to stay around for. The MC was utterly boring, the MH tends to grate on my nerves due to her constant trouble making, courtesy of her dubious upbringing and personality. And there's the fact that many of the *fights* are treated like a joke. Like the girls other than Phino, the fights were also a "afterthought" or probably made it with whatever left over budget they could squeeze for *fight scenes*. So if you were looking for DxD or any other fighting/adventure anime level of fights, nope. It left much to be desired. Especially not only how short and sudden they were but also because of strong and OP the MC and manager was... Seriously... Why was there even a fight with these strong entities?? It was almost completely one-sided.

Overall: 4
I did NOT enjoy the story or the whole progression. If it wanted to be a career slice of life anime? Then fine. Be one. If it wanted to be an adventure thriller anime like DxD or any other medieval fantasy animes (whether it has actual old medieval elements or modern elements), then also fine. Be one. But don't try to be both if you can't even execute it properly. It all fell flat in how it all integrated with each other since they don't explain how it all integrated with each other. Like it just... "was". No need to explain. Too complicated. Focus on story. Oh wait no story? Sorry forgot. Just focus on the tits please.

Personally for me, the only girl and waifu to take from all of this was Airi because she was almost the only sane girl in the entire group that wasn't a complete space case (Nova, the next door cashier), a cloud nine-walker (the manager), or loudspeakers (Ram, Phione). Although there was Lore who was the series' resident kuudere. But she gets very little screen-time other than to advance the story and plot. Otherwise she might as well not have existed. Because she didn't put on the bathing suit for the appropriate ep. She doesn't even strip at all or provide fanservice. She only gets naked for a bathhouse scene, and she still shows very little.... So honestly, the true takeaway from me that was a MH all shoved right into my face, was Airi, who honestly should've been the true MH due to how they made the ED credit animation and how she the first girl to show up when the show started. But alas, she gets pushed to the side for the "new girl in town".... So it was all a waste of time other than be able to rescue a poor character that was doomed to be neglected and adopt her and make her one of my waifus (Airi).

If you like that sort of thing or don't care for the "articles" (in other words you're here for the "plot"), then this anime is for you. Enjoy.

But if you are like me and have actual standards? Avoid this. Other than maybe seeing it for best girl Airi (completely subjective opinion)...
