Looks like Anos is famous among girls, xD. Seeing Sasha's expression when she saw Anos was so cute. Why is the transfer student is a boy, even though I hope that the transfer student is a cute girl with a big breast.

The battle of Anos and Rei is so amazing.

Oh ho, the right-hand man of Arnos, Shin Regulia, to eradicate the Hero Kanon, the 2000 years past. The wish to be reincarnated, huh.

Misa is an interesting character though: a half-spirit, half-demon, but it sure is a sign of relief when she and her Unitarian friends believe that Arnos is the TRUE Demon King of Tyranny, and are working hard to defuse the misplaced history. LOLs a fan club, the cringe-worthiness takes it to another level...but with more comrades, Arnos is gonna need all the help he can to figure out this mess.

A new transfer student: Ray Grandsley, other than the breathtaking ikemen he is...another addition to the harem team? He sure is like Arnos, heck care school politics. But to become the right-hand men and women of the former Demon King would take a good deal of magic power, skills and courage.

So it seems, the Arnos fan club and Ray vs. Arnos and the Necron sisters. Very high octane action, and could Ray very well be the reincarnate of Shin? I believe so, and with more to come.

Still a very fast paced series, and this is definitely not slowing down the enjoyment.

This episode was my least favourite episode so far.
But still like it.

This episode we've got:
New mysterious, new characters.
Anos still badass as always.
No OP in this episode but I like where they're put the OP into BGM of that fight.

This show is fucking amazing. So far, my non sequel anime of the season. Even though Anos is super OP the show just manages to stay entertaining and has fun side characters that add to the experience. The dude even has his own fan club wtf lol.

Loved the fight between Ray and Anos as well as seeing Misha and Sasha fight side by side. Some great development with them. Can’t believe we’re 5 weeks through this show already, time flies!

Anos has a fan club lol. That was something I wasn't expecting.

So we have a new student joining the academy. That was a good fight between Ray and Anos.

Next week episode a tournament. I'm looking forward to it.

Good episode again.

I hope we get more flashbacks to 2000 years ago, the state of affairs from that time period sounds intriguing and I kinda want to see the Hero fight Anos.

Anos's homeroom teacher is out to get him but he sure shows her by instantly thwarting her plans.
Anos fan club, of course there was going to be one. xD

Ray seems like a really cool guy. I like him already.
The competition was pretty cool, seeing Misha and Sasha team up was great and Anos vs Ray was awesome too. I'm looking forward to their partnership.

Interesting episode to start this next arc. I'm liking the new characters that got introduced with Ray and Misa, along with the Anos Fan Club. Anos is like a boy band member when he came to see the fan club that first time. They all just about lost themselves in his mere presence. Funniest part of the show so far. Rest of the episode was mostly the team battle to test Ray and the Anos Fan Club. They ended up all having great levels of resolve like Anos wanted. Their before looked really good with the sword clashes. Anos even with just a piece of branch still held Ray back. This track record of Anos meeting people who once knew but have now reincarnated is pretty cool. Meeting his old right hand man now with Ray. They should make a great team going forward with this tournament. Looking forward to their rematch too.

First half of the episode was pure jokes honestly. From just yanking a sword out of someone's chest, to having a fan club.

I love how he does things when it comes to those asking to be on his team. He doesn't out right reject them, but more asks them to prove themselves. Love it.

Damn epic opening. I hope we see Kanon's resurrection or whatever in the future, if Anos says is true about him then it is the truth and he's OP AF too!

The sisters doing a song...uhmm fusion of ice and fire magic. LOL

So Ray is Shin's resurrection huh?

Ah... As a WN reader, this episode was... really.... underwhelming.
They cut out so much of the good stuff.
The part between the 2 demon emperors and Ray + Anos was... so short, and really didn't show how powerful the demon emperors were supposedly. Oh well.
More stuff was missed and the chance for another cool quote was missed as well. :(

I do like the seiyuu cast choices though, funny how some of them were all in idol anime together. Lol.

Of course a demon king would have a fan club like that. What did you guys expect.

To stand for another classmate, Arnos has got guts, not like he doesn't have any. With that said, the "Unions" of the school (something like a club), WHEW I didn't think that Arnos would have a fan club that quick.

Misa is an interesting character though: a half-spirit, half-demon, but it sure is another level when she and her Union friends believe that Arnos is the TRUE Demon King of Tyranny, and are working hard to defuse the misplaced history.

A new transfer student: Ray Grandsley, other than the breathtaking ikemen he is, he is a faction leader, and just like Sasha, wants to be included in his group, but of course, if he did, the power balance is more broken than it is already.

But of course, trouble sure brews up quick between the both of them, and I'd foresee a power struggle happening soon. Will Arnos or Ray be able to loosen the grip, one over the other, it remains to tell of the whole story.

Still very fast pacing though.

I think is pretty obvious that Ray is Shin reincarnated. Also Anos like to have subordinates that can challenge him. That is the mark of a truly strong leader. Only weak bosses chose weaker people to follow them.

A fan club, a transfer student! Yep sounds like any typical high school Anime.

Jokes aside, it was pretty nice to see someone who's able to locks swords with Anos for as long as he did! Eventho he's a descendant (or resurrection) of someone Anos fought alongside with 2000 years ago!

I do have to say this whole talk about Royalty or Hybrids is quite annoying me, especially when you see that the teachers are also against Anos by trying to make false scores for their exam in that dungeon! Glad to see Ray is also someone who doesn't bother with royalty or hybrid! Good on him!

Can we see more of Misa? Like, starting next week? She put up a good fight against Sasha. I smell a great companion for Anos and his harem!

This time, Anos has gained another "friend".
I thought that Misha and Sasha were the reincarnations of Kanon, but now I think that all of Anos' squad members are pieces of Kanon.
Because Kanon had seven root sources.

also curious about the number of people matching Seven Elder Demon Emperors

So he just learnt that his dedicated fanclub actually existed : that's the start of fame, boy. And his former subordinate "came back" to life under another person, without his memories but his sword skills remained. Well I guess Anos is slowly building up his reputation as well as his harem lul

I love how these subplots that normally would've taken several episodes to resolve are instantly done in 30 seconds when Anos is involved.

"Oh no, the staff disappeared! We have to find it and then reveal the culprit!"

"Nah. The teacher was plotting against us for being lower class and the student that was heckling us at the beginning had the staff. Try harder next time, teach." Incredible.

So the white-haired dude isn't the hero Kanon, but his deeply loyal subordinate from back then. Nice to see there was someone besides Kanon that was able to provide some challenge for Anos back then.

Also I shouldn't have been surprised that Anos had a fan club. He's such an absolute chad I should've been surprised if there wasn't one lol

Haha, this parody. So the magic "mecha" sentai thing is a recurrent thing, lol.


The only open plot right now is: "who is the impostor Avos?" and, as subtle plot: "what happened to that Hero Kanon who 'killed' Anos"

Haha, something sound obvious here, right?

I think the real key to why I like this anime despite its OP protagonist is the deadpan way in which the VA for the main character delivers his lines. It makes it all seem like a tongue-in-cheek comedy, which is great. Throw some nice animation on top of that (like those non-CG water dragons in the prologue) and the show is definitely a few steps in front of the trash isekai pack.
Every day you can read a book or watch some anime is a good day!

He beat him with a stick! A goddamn stick. It can destroy mountains with one slash. Just how OP can Anos get? This what happens when a max level character goes back to the starting town and use the weakest weapon in the game.

He also has a fan club. Not surprised by the fact that they are all girls.

This show is hype. Looking forward to the next episode.

The foreshadowing makes it seem like Kanon may be showing up in the next episode.
Anos mentioning how he couldn't pull out Kanon's Holy Sword, the next episode being The Tournament of Swords (What was the name?), I'm really hoping that he shows up.

If Kanon does show up next episode in the tournament, I predict that he will fight with Shin first, who loses, then Anos in the finals. Because that's how it always works, I suppose.

Anos-sama once again regain more of his old loyal subordinate. The beginning part stand as their past sequences, doing an endless war against everything in the world. The reward reaching that loyal retainer, a reincarnation. Ofc that white hair guy being reincarnated together in the same time and had a nice little chit chat and fun meeting with Anos's. I don't quite like to called it a reunion. Its like a revival of the new era of Anos-sama. This era had a peace. So, yeah, its obvious Anos-sama would retaken the whole nice situations with his greatness. The real lord of the demon might be back to his Throne soon started over by conquering that shitty academy! His mission to reuniting the world into his own hand! Okay, i might be too extreme here, please refrain to complaint about my nonsense ranting here, lol.

Back to the show. The Introduction felt bold. That white hair guy. Idk why this should've happen. I don't even know the true intentions about the show. It might led to some chaotic conditions like in the past era. I really worried it might happened while Anos-sama slowly regain his loyallist. Still, it had so much mystery, even that hero reincarnation still unknown until this episode. Welp, the peek of the series should've static till the time has come, then! So, yeah, whatever it was. I am very enjoying this little shit show of nonsense.
