8 or 9 /10

The story wasn't anything special but the liked the characters, animation, comedy, and just the overall atmosphere of the show had a certain charm that I can't explain in words :3.

I personally thought it was a pretty mediocre series overall.

I'm a bit surprised so many people liked it so much, can someone who liked this a lot explain what aspect appealed to them most throughout this anime?


1- Facial expressions
2- Ashiya x Maou they were hilarious together
3- i love emi. Not able to explain why i just find her adorable and hilarious
4-

5- When they talked in their language sounded legit
6- The action was really good! short but good!

Loved it!

Though this really should have ended with the last episode.
The whole ordering scam that this episode chose to focus on was too pointless and silly in a bad way.

I liked that it consistently kept the comedy around and/or those moments that you don't really expect (like Maou taking off his work uniform in order to fight). Things like that.

Well maybe some of the humour was lost as the show went on, but even then I still felt like there was enough of it there all the way to the end.
Not saying it was like "i'm rolling on the floor laughing" type of comedy but it was amusing and I like that.

We finally reach the end of this season. I have to say that the ending didn't quite satiate my expectations. Initially, I was anticipating Maou and Ashiya throwing a party as a celebration, which was evinced by their sudden need for a large sum of money and keeping it as a secret. It was nice to see how Emi has changed her attitude towards Maou at the end anyhow.

I've enjoyed much of the humor and watching the characters joke around in this series. Season 2 would definitely be necessary to involve more of Ente Isla and possibly infuse some serious moments in there as well. With that said, Chiho's archery skills were never witnessed. I suspect that she is more involved in Ente Isla than what is shown so far.

Agreed, you never could assume the angle they'd take with a joke or when one would happen. The humor was always fresh and witty, and always stayed consistent to the each respective character's personality. The characters were shaped and developed really well because of this.

Oh God the final 3 minutes of the show was great, I feel really happy that the ED wasn't Chiho I've been annoyed by it since forever. Emi's first photo of the ED was great!

That scene at the intersection was truly the best, Emi's smile was definitely priceless, its meaning was what definitely made it the best. It's so good to see Emi so happy, smiling and spinning her umbrella.

Even though the show wasn't as good as its first half I definitely enjoyed this one.
4/5 for the episode
8/10 for the anime

If anything, I admire the number of characters that were intelligent in this series. Maou could easly have been turned into some carefree idiot and he wasn't. All the main characters where for the most part rounded in personality and that is why I loved the show.

Also, I loved the umbrella twirl

They left it pretty open to a second season, or at least a few episodes of OVAs. It was a pretty okay episode, I'm glad Emi got the focus at the end, I'm not a fan of Maou x Chiho at all.

The show was fantastic at first, and fizzled over time. The actiony dramatic episodes were not good for it. If it was going to have a crazy bout between Maou and Lucifer and then later against the angel guy, the fights should have been far from serious and kept the same tone as the rest of the show. The jokes were far less witty as the episodes went on. Also, the first epic fight ruined a lot of the show's flavor; Maou can now return to ente isla but he doesn't because of -no reason-. He prefers to live humbly in Japan as a regular guy for -no reason-. He now values human life because of -no reason-.
Before he came to Japan, he was clearly a racist, and was perfectly okay with killing humans by the thousands. Somehow living as a human and working at McRonalds causes him to change his beliefs, ones that he's lived with for his entire life. Now, I am sure this could happen, but if the writers wanted Maou to become a nice guy, they had better show some important scenes where he learns those life lessons that cause the change. Maybe he gets ill and while he's in the hospital he spends time talking to a young child with cancer, and there he learns something. Something like that.
Honestly I'm pretty disappointed with this show. It had so much potential after the premier episode. Oh well.

THAT BLUSH! THE FLAG HAS BEEN RAISED! FUCK YEEEEEEEAH!

I'm sure it will have a Season 2. Maybe not this Summer Season nor Fall 2013 because I remember White Fox announcing the second season of Jormungand even before the first season starts so maybe we would have the second season in the Spring of 2014. Winter 13-14 is possible but Winter line-ups are not really good compared to the other seasons so I'm not expecting much out of it. That is if the dvd/bd sells well. And I am assuming it will. Considering how good the series is.

The ending episode isn't really something great. I've seen better and I've seen worse. I don't like Sariel being alive in the human world. And I bet Orga is alive too -.- Love the outfit of Emi this episode <3 We get to see Emerada too. The ending credits was definitely hinting more contents. I like how they played Tsumabiku Hitori there. I wonder if Chiho's archery will be useful in the future.

Wonderful series. 8/10. I hope they will announce the season two soon. I need more Emi and Suzuno <3

Quite an irrational episode to be the finale eh?

The pacing of this episode seemed to be a bit too fast, didn't really wrap things up and didn't really feel like a finale. Though this episode is quite enjoyable.. but just not suitable to be a finale ~.~

But overall, quite a sound and enjoyable anime, with great fight scenes and comedy,hope there would be season 2 :)

Suddenly really awesome music at the beginning... but it was all in a dream ( ¬‿¬)
Seriously though, it was good.

Best thing Chiho has ever done was saying "Deluxe Life International Holdings".
Sounded awesome. Just awesome.


Lastly, this episode. Was good. The entire show was good. Real good.
Now, season two please.

Great fun filler-type last episode. Chiho's dream was actually quite believable at first but I lost it when Maou kissed her. Maou is way too dense to even realise her feelings for him lol. Emilia's dream was hilarious. Haha, Lucifer got scammed when buying an external hard-drive. Emilia obviously has feelings for Maou. I seriously loved this show. One of the shows that I looked forward to the most each week. Hataraku Maou-sama needs a second season! I mean if Date A Live is getting one why can't this awesome series get another? :D

Overall 9/10. Also, Khatsu-DUM! xD

I agree, since they have enough material for a second season, the only thing that has been holding them is probably the DVD sales, which is probably sure-fire to sell enough to be considered profitable.
