| This ep felt like more of an extra than a conclusion but the last scene was a nice throwback to the beginning. I felt like this show started on a very strong note with a great premise and funny humour. It kinda lost its magic during the introduction of Suzuno but regained it towards the final climax. Above all, the characters' likeable performances kept this show entertaining to watch. Sadao's devotion to his job and to the care of his friends provided a charming experience that twists the stereotypes of the villain and hero which I won't soon forget. Even though it might have been on a rushed schedule, the OP was bubbly and enjoyable to watch. I felt the same with ED with its abstract clocks but I couldn't warm up the nano.ripe song. However, this particular ED track used in the final ep was great. 7/10. A quirky and funny show with great action once in a while. A second season would be a great chance to expand on the relationships, the past and its fantasy elements a lot more. |
| It was a good and funny anime Expecting a second season |
| O importante não é o que fazemos de nós, mas o que nós fazemos daquilo que fazem de nós |
| I wish Urushihara would've gotten more screen time, as he was my favorite character. Come on, what's cooler than a demon general NEET? Anyways, 9/10 for me, really enjoyed it! I think it would've been much better if there wasn't all that romance subplot thrown in, because then there would've been more of the comedy, which was hilarious. Second season please! |

tingy said: Knowing this show, I knew that scene in the beginning was just Chiho's dream, lol. And at the end when we see Maou looking at the rain, I had a feeling too that it would end the way it began, except with Emi giving him the umbrella instead. That blush and the umbrella twirling in the end was so cute :D And the, "2 katsu dum pease!" So sad that such a great anime ended >< Seriously, funniest show of the season, along with the best facial expressions (and even awesome action scenes). I knew it was just a dream too. Maou wouldn't kiss her in real life. And the umbrella scene made me squeal a little. Finally she blushes! I really hope that there is a season two. :3 Ad in a completely unrelated note, where is the picture on your signature from?

It could well head to be the 5th or 6th bestselling series for this season, after Shingeki, UtaPrince2, OreImo2, Railgun2. you refer to "many fans in japan" does that mean this anime is a good hit in Japan too? CRadu said: Why did you copy and paste the Date A Live season 2 screencap here?? Are you deliberately trying to mislead people?!?YES YES Edit - I knew I forgot something. The characters mean "See you in season 2". That screencap belongs to date a live? Aww I was beginning to believe the poster because I feel part of the last episode doesn't make any sense. Being the part where Lucifer got scammed. So it just felt like that scene was introduction to new character(main antagonist) that will be appearing in season 2.[/quo Don't worry. There is going to be a second season. |

| This was truly great I love the set up, characters and I can't wait for season 2 |
| This anime is hilarious! I'm going to miss Maou-sama's smug face! |
| I really REALLY wanted to love this show. I mean the concept of demons in the human world trying to make an honest living is hilarious and other than Chiho the characters were pretty likable but the story was lacking. When it comes to the comedy, I had a couple of laughs(Mostly from Lucifer) but overall it didn't reach me much. The first few episodes were really funny but it lost some of it's charm as it went along for me. 6/10 It was okay. Not sure yet if I'm in for season 2 yet. |
| Sure hope this gets a second season, that episode was great. For a final episode it could have been better but everything would be made up if they announced a second season. |

| I want MORE CHIHO !!! |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Hilarious series, my favorite of the season |
| Thought this was a great series, but I thought this episode was lacking for a finale episode, it just seemed like a filler to me, only good part was the very end with the umbrella. Hope there is another season, I really liked it even though it was dry at times. |

| Really liked this show, definitely did not expect to like it as much as I did. Found it very enjoyable and fun, didn't really hate any of the characters, and the comedy was great(especially between Maou and Ashiya). The story wasn't anything special, and a lot of the plot points are left unresolved, but hopefully a second season can fix that. |

| I'm glad the ending didn't leave a big cliffhanger. I really do like both the action and comedy of this anime, also face expressions from most characters. |
 |
| EXCELLENT series. I started to fall in love with this series when Maou first turned into demon form and saved everyone. It got even better when Lucifer appeared. I LOVE this series !!! I only have a few questions, Is Maou, and them ever gonna return to Ente Isla? (maybe not??? lol) Is Maou still gonna try to conquer the world?(most likely not, since he got the soul of human?) Is Emi still gonna try to kill Maou? (most likely gonna be same relationship as now I guess?) Is Maou gonna further love relationship with Emi, Chiho? (I dunno :D) Great chance for Season 2, but ending itself also good as it is. Funny, Badass, Awesome !!! Final Score 10/10 |

| Sigh...why did it had to end so soon... Excellent series filled with superb comedy, action and characters...only complaint: TOO DAMN SHORT! 9/10 I'm even tempted to go for the 10 but I think this needed the whole 2 seasons to be perfect IMO. |
 |
| Another entertaining series ending. Ugh!! Second season, come quickly!! The umbrella ending was cute! I like Chiho more though. Not into the the tsundere type in this anime. Or Suzuno would be acceptable as well. 9/10 |

| This anime really entertains me. Had so many rofl here and there. If there's s2, I'd definitely watch it. 9/10 |
| Great ending. Tied up some loose ends (the umbrella, maou and co not returning to ente island etc) but also leaves room for a second season. Great series overall and hoping for a season 2! |
| So sad that it is over. this was one of the best of the season for me. I really hope for a season 2. Rather uneventful for a final episode, but fitting for the anime not to be overly serious and dramatic for a finale. 9/10 |

| Damn,, the great show is now over... For a Season closing, This EP was nice (tough i wanna count this as OVA if i can...) Now to await the 2nd season,, 8/10 |
| This episode was ok, felt that it was there more to hint at a second season than contribute to the story. The last 2-3 minutes gave the series some nice closure though in my opinion. |

| Super cute ending! So sad its all over though. D:" |
 |
| 8/10 <3 |
 |
| Funny concept. Reminds me of work as I also work at McDonalds. 7/10; don't need 2nd season. |
chikuita0621 said: KHATSU-DUM! This looks like an extra episode for me rather than an ending. I love the end part between Emi and Maou. :3 Haha that khatsudum scene was hilarious! |
| No! Why must it end!? D'= The comedy in this series was exceptional, especially with amazing MCs. I'd like to give series like these a 9, but these series seem to revolve around the characters and comedy, not so much the story, which I find essential. Just my opinion.  My favorite character of the season, Suzuno! <3 , and you can't really hate Maou Sadao either. |
 |
| Awesome. Now I want a second season. |

| Definitely one of the better comedies out there, it never is boring but it doesn't get me too laugh all that often. 6/10. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| this was really entertaining..hope there is a season 2 :) |

| "You're welcome." Lol, by this finale both Demon Lord and Hero have fully assimilated into modern working society. The ex-demon general Alsiel has truly become a hopeless human penny-pincher (which is not a bad thing considering how they always have money problems). Sariel is still there and is still the creep he ever was (or maybe he was expelled from Heaven for both his failure and his excesses). Nice to see even manager Mayumi got some more (unwanted) attention and screentime. Oh, Rika. I just love it when she keeps insisting there's romantic tension between Emi and Sadao. Unfortunately it seems nothing more came of Rika's potential attraction to Shirou. The way Emi put it, it's quite understandable why there is a high barrier that prevents Emi from really falling for him though. That gives Chiho some advantage, if she were ever to find herself competing with her good friend. If there's gonna be a next time, I hope even Emeralda and Albert get in on the "fun" in the human world. This show definitely deserves a sequel. One of the shows I enjoyed the most this season. I still stand by my assessment that this is the best comedy of the season. Very entertaining. |

| Please send me a message/profile comment since I will most likely not check my forum posts. Thank you. |
| I feel like it's very possible for this anime to get a second season. |
| Still have that unsolved "unforgiving Emi" issue, so I want a second season! Yay :P It's been a while since I've seen such a great comedy, I've literally been laughing out loud non-stop watching this! |
| lol I was into this episode for some reason. This is definitely getting a sequel. |
| That was a lovely finale for a thoroughly entertaining show. I'm very glad I decided to start this on a whim. 9/10 |
