Jashin-chan Dropkick'

Jashin-chan is a demon who was summoned by Yurine Hanazono, a gothic looking girl. Unable to return home as the relevant spell was not included in the summoning grimoire, Jashin-chan resorts to violence to liberate herself from her earthly shackles.

However, this is easier said than done, as Yurine is no weakling herself. She in fact possesses formidable physical power and uses it to massacre Jashin-chan in a variety of ways, be it shoving her arm in a blender, spreading her intestines across the room or even cooking her. Though these actions would be fatal to anyone without the ability to regenerate, Jashin-chan isn't exactly undeserving of this treatment. Stuck with each other, Yurine lets Jashin-chan live with her in exchange for work around the apartment, and this cohabitation results in situations where, more often than not, Jashin-chan ends up in pieces.

First of all, I would like to say that this anime is really not for everyone. But I assume that if you watch a review about the second season of "Jashin-chan Dropkick", it's probably due to the fact that you had watched the first season first.

"Jashin-chan Dropkick" is and will remain one of the best dark humor anime I've ever seen, certainly because I am one of those people who craves stupid, bloodthirsty, and deadly humor : the kind of one linked to sarcasm. Nichijou meets Gabriel DropOut. You add gore, but not too much: It creates this anime.

So that's my vision of this anime ... in general.

The second season? Not disappointing at all! I even think it is better presented than the first season. Namely in the first minutes of the first episode of the first season, which directly present us all the characters at once around a banquet, without real lore behind (But which is fortunately better understood shortly after). Unlike the second season where we immediately understand the reason of Jashin-chan's invocation by Yurine. Positive point which goes on the negative, because it is a little disappointing to see that the second season explains the story better than the first (In personal opinion, I say that the second season is not disappointing because it is better made than the first, mostly used as an argument while the first season was already pretty awesome).

But there is more to it than that. The artstyle, clean like the first season. The length of the episodes, clean, it goes really fast and it's always nice to chain the jokes one after the other. The new characters, they are very pleasant to see on the screen. They do not appear often, but their appearance's level is perfect to not suffer for bland jokes and who really try to be "Funny because there is this new sopposedly important character that we don't really know what she did before because she was absent in the first season, haha... ha?"

Seriously, there aren't many bad things to say compared to the first, it's "Jashin-chan" as we had known her

TL; DR: If you already watched "Jashin-chan Dropkick", it's the same, better explained and with new pleasant characters

Oh yeah, Jashin-chan! I remember this! I watched this anime while it was airing back in July of 2018. It was pretty fun. I even made a review of it. After the studio sold enough DVD boxes they announced a season 2 and I remember being excited for it. After one and a half year of more anime and more personal problems I was actually scared to watch this anime. It had been so long since the first season and I thought my taste would have changed so much from back then that I would have not liked this anime anymore.

Well, after Crunchyroll dropped ... the whole second season yesterday and me binging all the episodes, I can say that I still like this anime.

So what changed from season 1? Not much. The biggest change are the new characters, another demon, another fallen angel and zombie + panda sibling couple. They are a welcome edition to the cast and bring in their own fun flavor.

Other then that… this is just more Jashin-chan Dropkick. The characters are still good, the production values are still solid, the comedy is as energetic and fun as ever, and the references & fourth wall breaks are still as funny as ever. The shortcomings also haven't changed either: this anime still has a problem with balancing its self aware tone with its more sincere tone and Jashin-chan can still be too much of a prick at times.

Other then that, it's a damn fine anime. If you like anime like Gabriel Dropout or Kobayashi's Dragon Maid this two seasons anime is worth a watch.

Mixed Feelings

Jashin-chan Dropkick (or Dropkick on My Devil) is one of those shows I come across by pure chance. Saw a few funny clips, decided to give it try, and mostly enjoyed it all the way through back in 2018. My immediate thought after finishing the first season way back when was that it was a solid show that had it's moments, but likely wasn't going to get a second season. Well, to my surprise, it did end up getting a second season, and even more surprising, the entire season happened to drop on the same day, so of course I binged it, and to no ... shock, it was more of the same.

Once again, Jashin-chan herself really steals the show. Most, if not, all of the funniest jokes and scenes in this show involve her in one way or another. The other characters mostly just exist to work off of Jashin-chan, or rightfully punish her when she does something extremely stupid or evil. While this may come off as a bad thing, it works pretty well for the most part, as Jashin-chan's torment is usually well deserved, since she's a raging, gambling-addicted freak that will go to all lengths to get her way, even backstabbing her own friends. The only other character that really stands out besides Jashin-chan is Satan, who plays the role of a commentator. He adds a nice little kick with some snide comments here and there, and it's obvious they had a lot of fun with his parts.

The sound is somewhat of a downgrade from season one. The OP and ED are fine, but both songs are massive downgrades from what we got in 2018. To be completely fair here, however, season one's OP was easily one of the best that year, rivaling OPs like Jojo's Part 5's 'Fighting Gold' among other bangers, so it was a pretty high bar to begin with. All around, the music was fine, and the voice acting was solid. Aina Suzuki once again did an outstanding job voicing Jashin-chan, though, I'm sure her throat is sore from all that screaming.

Overall, Jashin-chan Dropkick was a solid comedy. It's nothing groundbreaking, but it does it's job and got more than a few laughs out of me. I enjoyed both seasons and if you're into heavy slapstick and don't mind a fair amount of violence, I'd give this show a watch.
