Konyaku Haki sareta Reijou wo Hirotta Ore ga, Ikenai Koto wo Oshiekomu

I know what you're probably thinking. How far can we stray from the light of God with such a cheesey premise? That was my first thought upon reading the synopsis. The promotional material does make the show look more innocent but nowadays, you know you shouldn't judge everything shown on the screen. Or should you?

Our main leads Allen Crawford and Charlotte Evans couldn't be any more different. One earned the moniker 'Demon Lord' for his intimidating appearance and powers while Charlotte is a pure innocent girl . The idea of Allen trying to teach Charlotte to be naughty sounds controversial at first. We might get ... the idea that Allen has perverted intentions or ulterior motives. However, the truth is that he just wants Charlotte to be more confident and enjoy life as it is. Compared to most people Allen has met, Charlotte is a truly honest and friendly person. Despite having met each other not for long, it felt like Allen and Charlotte were always destined to be paired up.

Watching the show can be described as cozy, almost slice-of-life experience. While fantasy elements are factored in with an adventurous vibe, the show overall has an easy going momentum. Although Allen does have an intimdiating appearance combined with his deep voice, he is a far cry from what people actually believe him to be. In reality, Allen is a gentleman who loves to experience the freedom of life. He wants to share that freedom with Charlotte and that makes the bulk of their adventure. Let's get facts straight here. There's no ecchi or naughty fan service. This is one of the more innocent anime this year. Instead of using fan service, it builds on a relationship that slowly evolves over time with each episode.

That being said, don't expect the show to be a one that is deeply narrative driven. While it has some deeper roots with backgrond stories, origins, and characterization, it's not complex either. On the other hand, it's also clear this show is not designed for a wide audience. It's almost niche with its romance in that it's too innocent and cartoony. Charlotte is protrayed as a young girl that is way too one dimensional. She doesn't undergo noticable changes and remains relatively the same person from the start to finish. The same can be said for Allen and his peculiar agenda. It doesn't also help that most of the supporting cast can't hold much of a candle to our main leads. Some show up for one episode and are never seen again. For those with recurring appearances such as Eruca and Miacha, they are there to just make our main characters look better.

The show has a simple artistic style that mostly speaks for itself. It's adapted from a light novel that matches the characteristics of of the cast. Although nothing stellar can be said for the cherography or backgrounds, it has a simple fantasy look that appeal to that genre. Allen's character design gives him a masculine appeal, a sharp contrast to Charlotte's innocent charms. When watching the show, their character expressions often contrast each other in various moments. Unfortunately, Charlotte's reactions often comes off with too much cartoony moments. I suppose the show wanted to adapt her character in the safest way possible but it feels like if you've seen it once, you've seen it all.

By no means is this show a masterpiece. This anime probably slipped under a lot of people's radars with its deceptive title. Plus, the fantasy genre seems to be oversaturated these days and this may appear as one of those again. Yet, this anime has is innocent charm connecting its two main leads on their self discovery journey.

One of the few romances animes for fall season 2023, and probably the best one so far. It’s funny, it’s cute, and wholesome.

Allen is known as the “Demon Lord” but he’s not actually the lord of demons. He is just misunderstood because he lives in isolation in the woods, and people think he looks “scary”. Although he is pretty powerful, he is not violent, but overprotective of Charlotte since Charlotte has had a tough upbringing. She’s lived a sheltered life up until she started living with him, so he wants to introduce her to “naughty” aka the fun things she’s been missing out on ... her whole life. The term “naughty” gets misconstrued with characters in the show thinking Allen is referring to “sexual” naughty things which is pretty funny because both Allen and Charlotte are clueless to this, even though it’s CLEAR they are crushing on each other pretty hard.

It’s been an entertaining since episode one, and it’s one that I look forward to every week. If you’re looking for some lighthearted fun romance, I’d recommend giving this anime a shot! It’s super cute.

I quickly feel in love with this series, it's so funny, sweet and lighthearted! It is definitely worth a watch if you need a cute and funny pick me up from a bad day! It made me quickly pick up the manga (Which I am enjoying immensely) and it's great too.
The MC are so adorable together and the side characters are quirky and funny. Don't take it too seriously, sit back, relax and enjoy!
The art style is great and matches the manga a lot (Not sure about the LN)
I think anyone who likes rom-com will enjoy this show, it's just too cute and pure!

If you're on the lookout for another wholesome romcom, this anime is an excellent choice. Its standout feature lies in its fantastic characters; the main character isn't dumb, and the voice acting, delivered by a highly popular and skilled actor, adds a layer of quality to the series. While the plot maintains a delightful simplicity without feeling cliché, what truly shines is how each episode captivates with its unique charm.

However, it's worth noting that some scenes can be fairly predictable, occasionally leading to a touch of frustration, despite this minor drawback, overall, it's a standout anime that I highly recommend, especially if you are a ... romcom enjoyer.

I know it's a little early to say but this anime is definitely one of the surprises of the season.
It was difficult to say what to expect from this anime, since the manga doesn't have much popularity and the producer isn't that famous, however, as I always give a chance to the season's anime that seem to have a cool design, I started watching.
The premise of the anime doesn't build anything too fanciful and different from normal, they took the idea of ​​"Building a romantic comedy between two characters who meet by chance." and since the plot unfolds like this, the story behind it doesn't ... matter much since in my point of view the anime is much more focused on comedy than on being something serious.
You can see that the anime is much more focused on being something funny due to the drawing and animation style, Zero-G, the anime's producer, already has experience in developing romantic comedies such as Rikei Ga Koi, so the production really highlights being a very positive point. The story is also good, the anime never gets boring to watch and the characters are funny and entertaining.
This review is still a preliminary as I'm only in episode 4 but you can already get an idea of ​​what to expect as the anime progresses, overall, it's worth watching.
I recommend.

Lets get it straight out of the way first, this series is not an Ecchi one. The story is balls to the walls, pure and unadulterated, diabetes inducing wholesome and heartwarming sort of story; other than the title, it doesn't give any pretenses to be otherwise.

We have Charlotte, our endearing female lead with a typical Cinderella background and an immensely kind bubbly fuwa-fuwa soothing personality, meeting her slightly unconventional "prince" Allen who strives to make her happy, teaching her so called "naughty" things to enjoy and make her realize that she have some agency in her life. The series doesn't stray much from this central ... premise, each episode are mostly about them slowly but surely falling in love with each other, with other characters teasing them about this fact that they themselves haven't realized yet.

The series is not interested in innovating the genre or giving you anything out of left field, you just expect what's to come, get your weekly dose of overwhelming glucose intake, and is left satisfied; it never fails to fill your heart with warmth and face with a smile. If that's something you're interested in, I definitely recommend this.

I think the overall premise of this anime isn't very common as some other people say. Got a tragic heroine that's very cute- not as much sex appeal angle for once, and a story of helping her come out of her shell. There's elements in here that are common tropes, but compared to the normal scenes of ecchi styles. I find this one to be more sensible; at least as sensible as it could be with magic involved.

Without spoiling too much, the anime follows two characters who fall in love, a damsel in distress and a mage who's extremely powerful. The anime goes as far ... as to give most of the backstory for the main two characters, while leaving one big question unanswered that doesn't feel as necessary to know for these 12 episodes to be good on their own.

Personally enjoyed the anime a lot and would recommend giving it a complete watch through. There's not a lot of action however and it's primarily slice of life focused.

It's definitely a cute anime to watch with a significant other, and I'd say that the overall rating would be a solid 7. Nothing amazing but it's a cute anime. Me and my girlfriend just finished it and enjoyed it. Hope for a season 2!

Genuinely would give 7.5 if I could!

This was very cute! Charlotte and Allen had great chemistry. More so, I felt the way they developed feelings for one another was well paced! Felt soo natural! They were both so adorable and charming as characters, very easy to watch their story unfold!

The only real critic I have, is that due to the title, I thought this was going to be - naughtier.

I thought we were going to see Allen doing things like making Charlotte hold hands with him, and then building up little moments like that until an eventual kiss by the end.

I ... was excited to see a slightly more mature romance. And needless to say, this wasn’t it. This is veryyyyyy innocent.

Because of that, I was pretty disappointed, because I felt a bit misled. Despite that, still a captivating story.

I think if you go into it knowing it’s a mild, cutesy romance then there wouldn’t much else to dislike!

Definitely recommend!

Here is my review of this anime in 2023!

Story (9)
The story is about a pure innocent girl that is living with the demon king. The demon king always has a naughty thought and wants to make the girl corrupted but all his plans fail because He has a feeling to Her. There are a lot of comedy scenes in this anime.

Art (8)
The art in this anime is Very good! I like the color, glow, and shadow they used for this anime. But I think they can improve much better on the effect when battling with the monster since the main character is overpowered.

Sound (10)
All the ... sounds that they used were suitable and adjusted to the animation.

Character (10)
The main and supporter characters are very memorable since they have their unique personality. Love the Capybara character.

Enjoyment (9)
It's very enjoyable to watch this movie in 2023.

Overall (10)
It's recommended to those who love adventure, action, overpowered main character, and comedy anime!

This was one of my favorite anime of its cour. It was cute but also dramatic and funny. I enjoyed the characters a lot and watching them grow over the course of the episodes. My only real complaint is I'm not a super fan of overly possessive side characters but I understand that they have to exist in this anime or the main couple would get together maybe too quickly.

If you enjoy cute little romances with occasional bouts of high stakes drama and don't mind the female lead to be a bit quiet and unassuming then you'll probably like this anime.

It's a good anime. I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I did. The comedy brings it together. It's hilarious. It has a decent story as well. I liked it. Surprised I enjoyed it. Really.

It has cute moments. Its fights are funny. And yeah.

Art and animation are good. Not going to say great, because I've seen better, but eh.

Characters are funny. And the backstory for some needs fleshing out a bit I think. If I'm mistaken, then I'm sorry.

Soundtrack is good.

It's a good time. I recommend it to people who want a laugh. Because it's hilarious.

This anime was really very good, one of the best anime in this season (but far from being the best of the season). Despite the low budget the team responsible for the production managed to deliver something beyond expectations, even though the animation wasn't that great. The characters developed in a natural way throughout the episodes, as did the romance, which was well explored over the episodes. Furthermore, the anime has some funny parts. Although there was no kiss or anything like that, there was a significant advancement in the romance of the main couple, providing many cute moments. Therefore, it was very enjoyable to ... follow this series.
