Another great episode.

Lol, the police officer is kinda funny. And what's up with Maou now, she can't even walk straight and falls off the stairs? Well, I see that Yuusha and Maou are still having rocky talks.

Tears were shed ;.;. This series continues to entertain me every week still though. Kinda like some of the new characters introduced. Nice wings:


Can't wait to see shit goes down next time :3

How can she misunderstand the situation like this I mean it is not she caught them having sex or anything. So that landlady knows about Maou and the others real identities; I wonder who is she really.

More ppl from the other side are on they way,and it seems the guy that was threatening Emilia and Maou is Lucifer things are getting more and more interesting!

Lucifer looks pretty cool! And the landlady knows all sorts of things about demons huh~~ the way she appears in the OP was pretty suspicious but I can't wait to see who she really is!

More action, more drama, but less comedy.. that's too bad, but at least the drama is interesting for now. And Ashiya still makes me lol every time xDD

So all those people were protected from the falling debris thanks to Maou-san.

Lucifer voiced by Shimono-san was nice.

Wow Getting serious. Especially the flashback was tense. I felt a Maoyuu vibe. Unexpected surprise from the series.

I guess Emi didn't talk about Kobe earthquake not b/c she was attentive to her but b/c she didn't know about the quake at all cuz she was from a different world. lol

Funny was the conversation between Maou and Yuusha in his room. Chiho reminded me of Okonogi from Dusk Maiden Amnesia character/personality-wise.

In the end Lucifer showed up. I had not imagined they would battle in the human world. I thought the series was a lighthearted romcom. Delightful surprise!

Very nice episode. Yes nicely done! It retained a perfect balance between comedy and seriousness.

It doesn't seem like Lucifer is trying to take Maou back or something, but what can they do with such a limit power in that world.
It seem like Emi friends from the different world are coming too.

What a preview, it doesn't say much at all expect for the title.

What a sad past for Yuusha. Who is the landlord. She knew everything about Maou and Yuusha. Even about the quakes. Damn Lucifer makes his appearance and next week looks like they will battle it out. Won't their identities be revealed then?

What I really like about Maousama is how it mixes comedy and drama and can switch between the two of them like its nothing. I've seen other comedies try this but few have been as successful as this show. While it might not work for other people and I can see why, it clicks for me at least

So many comedic highlights whether its Ashiya in waifu-husband mode or Chi-chan having horrible timing with a dramatic moment between Emilia and Maou. All I feel like doing is praising this anime. It was pretty interesting learning about how Emilia became a hero and its ties to the present today with Lucifer. Another mystery that got introduced was how Maou's landlord knows about magic and mind sonar. Is she a demigod perhaps?

The dialogue between Emilia and her friend had some nice perhaps blunt symbolism to the relationship between Maou and Emilia currently ongoing.

I'm also keen to learn more about Maou's motivations when he was a Demon King in Ente Isla. His last words before Chi-Chan came in piqued my curiosity

Better make sure I don't trip on any stairs until next week

To explain a little better about Maou's apology, he had never met or seen any humans and didn't understand what exactly they were, and thought they were some sort of parasite, so he declared war


Another good episode, it's like they are a bunch of Chuuni's living together, never fails to amuse me.

Yay! More background for Emilia.
Her talk with Maou is so touching! It made me shed a tear.

Poor Chi-chan. She just has to see it.

Ooh... it is his minion Lucifer eh???
I can't wait to see Maou put him down in his place... and probably, live in Maou's apartment with Alsiel. That would bring lols.

Hmmm, I wonder what would have happened if Ashiya & Chi hadn't walked in on Maou & Emi. Emi looked like she was about to burst a vein after Maou's offhand apology and it's not like anyone can blame her. One thing's for sure, there's definitely going to be a continuation to this conversation.

Also, can we all just take a moment to appreciate that this show isn't being driven by comedy but by actual STORY? I WANT NEXT WEEK ALREADY WAHHHHH

Waaa.. another awesome episode.

Little Emi. True daughter of an angel, TOO CUTE <3

I wonder what's up with Emi's bestfriend. Just a side character or...?

Lol at the officer. Police sure are getting a lot of screen time in this Anime lolol.

Aren't we seeing Emi fanservice every episode? Not that I mind CUZ SHE'S TOO HOT!

So what's the feather that fell in the bathtub?

EMI FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS <3 BEST SCENE THIS EP!

The drama was kinda sad. It was sad because Maou did nothing but said sorry. I thought Emi would kill her if Chiho didn't arrive.

Speaking of Chihio, ppor kid. Get heartbroken and be targeted by Lucifer...

The biggest mystery was who's the owner?! MIKI-T!!!!!!!!! I wonder who she is? Maybe a creature from another planet too that went to japan long ago before Maou and Emi arrived.

I'm excited. It seems like we will see the mage girl in action next ep!!

Wasn't surprised by Lucifer. BECAUSE OF THE DAMN SPOILERS IN MAL. Seriously, when will people learn that that's the last thing they should to in an anime forums.

Lucifer looks BA. Was happy to hear the he's being voiced by Hiro. From the god of conquest to the demon Lucifer!!!

This series. Too good.

Nice little bit of back story on Emilia there. She was really about to burst after Maou's 'apology'. Poor Chi-chan walking in on them. I wonder if she'll ever get a chance.

And now Lucifer shows up to mutiny against Maou!

Uhmmmm...

The first half of ep was abit boring with emi's friend, but well was able to know abit more about her, as always maou and his loyal servant are super funny. That miki-T surely come from the other world, or at least knows alot she's really mysterious.

Luciper appears, oh well ... that also tricks me, i mean it's hard to believe a Dark Lord in so short of time become too kind and nicely to everyone, rlly soft and different.. but it's ok let's see what will happen with him and his generals. Obvsly there is alot to be discovered so expecting to next episodes.

Now comes the worst part, wait until next week >.> ...

So many new characters, looking forward to whats coming next. Its will be interesting to see if lucifer will be a bad guy or become their friends, he kinda looks like a bad guy but i could see him being an ok character.


Unlike Maou, he is actually confirmed to have done atrocities. Emilia's father was killed by his legions after all.
In other words, somehow I think he'll be the plot-device to apologize Maou.

This is quite weird, by the bible Lucifer is the "Dark Lord" he's the boss of darkness

but here seems like they splitted it up, and create 2 characters. But well that doesn't rlly matters right ? I just hope to see some nice funny scenes mixed up with fight, but i'm not sure they will put such intensity on this fight for now.

Pacing for this show is great. It's a bit conventional that shet-gets-real butts in each time any attempt at dialogue resolution surfaces, but this keeps everything fresh. It's hard not to succumb to spoiling the plot for myself each week!

Also, Asriel for character of the year.

Solid 10/10 after this episode now.
What this show missed till now was more support characters to get relevant and a deeper story.
Its got everything now.
Best show of the season for me.
As it is now, maybe only the Titans could beat it.

Couldn't agree more ^^ It definitely has a good mix of comedy and drama that is executed very well. I laughed so hard at Ashiya in the beginning when he had more mental trauma for not being of help to Maou haha. I like how they are delving more into the conflict between Maou and Emi. We obviously know that Emi wants to kill Maou because of all the "bad" things he did to the humans in the other world, but now we kind of get a glimpse at Maou's motivation for the war. Though we still don't really know anything, at least we know that he didn't do it just to be evil, he really had no understanding of humans back then. After all, now he did all he could to save people. Wow Lucifer. This is getting really interesting!

Gotta love at Ashiya's logic... "Hey Chiho, wanna come over? Your lover and rival are both back at the apartment by themselves in private ,but don't worry, it'll be fun!"

Haha anyhoo, I'm loving the way this anime is turning out and the way it transitions atmospheres/genres. Though I wonder why they weren't more suspicious about the landlady...?

Ooookay... Well, that's kind of lame, the Dark Lord really wasn't evil after all? And it was all Lucifer, the one who harmed Emi?

But the episode is great! This, from all the romcoms I have seen, could stand in the upper spots! its actually enjoyable and the initial premise hasn't been badly done, and there are new characters introduce.

1. the space time emotionless girl
2. the big guy, is that Emi's father?
3. Lucifer! pretty cool looking guy

The Anime skips some dialog here and there (probably because they want to end right at Lucifer part) and some are quite important or at least make things easier to understand so I would suggest people taking a quick the Manga version of this ep.

This is probably one of the best animes this season along side shingeki no kyojin. Keeps getting better after every episode, and washes my mouth clean after the bad taste I get from other animes. Such as the new episode of devil survivor.. dafuq was that...

But I'm interested to see the new characters come to play, and would like to know a bit more behind emi and maou is past. I still don't understand how the dark lord satan can be so sympathetic :P

Looks like Lucifer wants to overthrow Satan/Maou (maybe going along with Christian mythology about how Lucifer wanted to overthrow God).

Great episode, but I am a little irritated at how much of a "nice guy" Maou is. He's the freaking DARK OVERLORD, would spending a few months in the human world change him so much?
