So the humans just retreated.

Also, did Ike said what he was writing outloud or was that a inner thought monologue?

.

LOL @ Maou-sama doing the passive aggressive smile

.

BTW... I thought this was the humans combined army? so why was there just 5000 human soldiers? Are the total human population in this series' world less than 500,000 or something? LOL (in perspective, the on-going Ukraine-Russia war has just from Russia sending more than 700,000 soldiers, imagine in a real World War... how many total soldiers would there be from all countries in the world?)

.

And that end "epilogue"... so is this the "end end" where they don't actually show how he accomplished the feat to unite the world?

The premise of Jun Fukuyama voicing a powerful human mage pretending to be a demon in the middle of a war with humans got me pretty excited, but this sure was a let down. Nothing wrong with the performer, Ike as a character was just a total bore who as a mage and general never managed to be anything remotely impressive despite the show insisting oh yes he was. Then there's Jiron. If I never see that painfully unfunny "comic relief" pig character again it'll be too soon. Lilith was generic and boring most of the time, but at least she bullied Jiron and was vicious to him so I'll always remember her fondly.

Cefiro was a lot of fun, though. She's the only one who even cast a spell that made you go "wow!" I kept wishing Ike would die and she'd take over part way through. Alas...

How did this manage to be so boring with so many sieges and pirates and magic battles and demon civil wars? It's almost impressive! Sometimes you stick with a show hoping it will get better, other times it gradually dawns on you you've made a terrible mistake.

bruh, how has the demon army survived up to now? They are always heavily outnumbered and even someone like Cefiro who is heavily respected is no match by herself, so clearly their strategy game is weak compared to the human army too if it weren't for Ike. But most important of all, they are all super weak to arrows and have 0 defenses against it, so all you really had to do was bring a bunch of archers and the demon army would surely be wiped out in a single fight.

Also, why bother firing rifles in turn if you aren't going to reload while your mates are shooting. The entire point of staggering your shots is to prevent any delay between your shots.

It was fun. I had fun! Although the animation quality sucks, the story given was decent. 7/10 for the story, characters, and the entertainment it gave.

This was a really good series. I liked all the characters and Ike's mask is so cool.

I'd love to see a season 2 of this especially when theres so many other series now getting them. That end promo for the source material makes it sound like more of the same and thats exactly what I want. Would love to see more of the Demon Lord as well cause her smile towards the end there was really cute.

The final battle felt somewhat anti climatic. Felt like Erudle didn't even try to put up a fight for some reason.

I usually enjoy shows like this quite a bit, but this one felt a bit dumbed down, especially toward the end of the series. Also, the animation/cg were very low quality too.
