Synopsis

In the distant past, a war between humans and demons brought about widespread chaos and bloodshed. To put an end to this seemingly endless conflict, Demon King Anos Voldigoad willingly sacrificed his life, hoping to be reborn in a peaceful future.

In preparation for their king's return, the demon race created the Demon King Academy, an elite institution tasked with determining Anos' identity when he reawakens. He reincarnates two millennia later, but to his surprise, he soon learns that the level of magic in the world has drastically waned during his absence. Moreover, when he enrolls at the academy to reclaim his rightful title, he finds out that demonkind remembers him differently. His personality, his deeds, and even his legacy are all falsified—masked beneath the name of an impostor. This "lack" of common knowledge renders him the academy's outlier—a misfit never before seen in history.

Despite these drawbacks, Anos remains unfazed. As he sets out to uncover those altering his glorious past, he takes it upon himself to make his descendants recognize that their ruler has finally returned.

I don't have much to say about this anime. It doesn't do anything particularly well, but it doesn't do anything particularly poorly either. It's enjoyable enough to have on in the background while you're doing other things, or if you just want to relax and pass the time. The story isn't bad, it's just cliché and predictable. But this doesn't make it bad; it's just fine. I think the best thing about this anime is that its magic system seems to be a bit less cliché and classic than everything else. It gives you the sense that there is some kind of system or method ...

Mixed Feelings
TLDR: This is so bad that is funny to watch.

Character 5/10
The characters here would make you go holy fuck this is so bad that is funny. So you have this guy named Anos the main protagonist that is a former Demon King who has been reincarnated. He is so fucking overpowered to the point that he can speak and turns straight towards adulthood after being 2 weeks old. He can also fuck you up and kill you with just his heartbeat alone. You can picture him as Saitama from OPM but has magic that can solve anything. He has everything such as Bitches, power, wealth, ...

This anime really only wasted the time that I wanted it to. I didn't love or hate it.

The characters were decent, but very flat. Sasha seemed like she was going to be an Asuka Langley-type character at first, but just acts really soft and out of character a lot. The rest of the characters just kind of did their job to progress the story.

The soundtrack was really nothing to boast. Fitting at best.

The fight scenes were pretty predictable, because if this guy is actually who he says that he is, he is obviously going to win.

The animation is pretty decent. There were a ...
