| Yeah, it was pretty generic but i liked it, of the 4 shows ive watched so far, this is probably my favorite :) |
| Didn't think he would be a hero. |
| Hmm, the ecchi and fight not very balance out...i almost dropped during the middle part until it was revealed they were demons and heros. Will watch another 2 more ep. |
| Ugh too much lightrays, art is off than in the LN/manga, well waiting for ATX but if it's censored gonna wait for the BD's. Waiting for Yuki to come out. Not pretty impressive first episode imo. |
| Tch. |
| I had forgotten the anime description when I watched it so the first half looked like it was gonna be a pretty entertaining and cute harem/ecchi/slice of life and I was quite surprised when the demon stuff came in. Not bad at all though, and the first episode was really strong. I really liked how they brought in the ending song in with all the action going on. |
 |
| That was a generic start... hopefully they really make the battles all good since I am a bit of a fan of the manga. |

| By the way those two demon brats have no right to start acting all tsundere and go around kicking and screaming "onii-chan no baka" anymore. Why is that, you ask? Well heck I don't know... maybe cause they tried to freaking brainwash the MC and kick him out of his own house! And now he generously accepted them back while saving Mio's life in the process. |
| Typical LN trash we get at least three times in a "different form" each season. I seriously wonder what kind of anime viewer with experience stilll enjoys those... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| First episode that I do not like, I did not see anything interesting. I was disappointed the TV series Absolute Duo, maybe this will be even worse. This winter season has a few really interesting series, what a pity! Well, not that I had made of illusions, since the PV imagined that this season, compared to the autumn, had little to offer, oh well! |
 |
| Second series watched this season and it feels mediocre, hope it doesn't end up just a typical harem :) |
 |
| Everything about this is mediocre.... |
 |
| Is this the non hentai version where the father leaves the son to two beautiful girls? O never mind, the next episode is going to be not as flat as this one. |
 |
| A beginning which really does not give any surprises, a typically mediocre one. Hopefully it will improve. |

| - decent looking art - the MC is a bit scruffy looking but that's cool too - freaking screams genericism but at least Mio is kawaii - I'm actually interested in this MC, w'sup with them scars? - oh yeah, I forgot the [fantasy] tag...... errr - oh yeah, forgot [Maou] was in the title.... err - OP is so-so - RIGHT, this gives the a high school DxD feeling - something about Basara was throwing me off, it was the resemblance to Issei - right hand shaking after using power, oh my god my sides - ED is proper might give this a run due to this strange feeling of high school DxD. |
| Can anyone tell me what "sister new devil" even means? lol |

| Still screams generic harem ecchi, and the opening pretty much confirms it, but seems to have some promisjng elements. Also, the girls' plan was that grandiose and efforted when it was all to get a damn house? I guess they were little more than spregular girls beforehand so that's simome justification. |

| I might just like the MC more than Issei from High School DxD. |
 |
| I dont mind the animation, kind of thrown off by the random scars (shading?) on their face but w/e big thing that stood out for me was them trying to kick him out then her saying "i know we couldnt live together" like wut? but for now ill trust in nakamura-sensei |
| Welcome the generic fantasy harem of the season. I wish the animation were better. Nidhoeggr said: Typical LN trash we get at least three times in a "different form" each season. I seriously wonder what kind of anime viewer with experience stilll enjoys those... It's like fast food. You know it's crap but it's a bad habit. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Not bad for episode 1 of 12 episodes anime adaptation, it had everything you can excpect from this kind of series, a bit rushed especially at the end but i still like it :) |
 |
| Very good episode. The 1st half felt like a slice of life anime, but it was funny and entertaining. Thats little girl looked sexy in the apron. And 2nd half was so intense, and liked the twist about demon lords and heroes. I never expected that guy to be the hero |

| Not even 10 seconds in and the art work is flat and atrocious. Dropped. |

yanaro said: Can anyone tell me what "sister new devil" even means? lol Well, Mio is the daughter of the previous maou, and only found out about it a year prior. And when all's said and done, Basara still treats both her and Maria as family, regardless of their previous behaviour because of what they've been through. That's how I think of it, anyway. |
| ehh Mio being on top of Basara was really iffy. when the cam panned to her boobs the animation and coloring just made me eyes sore Maria's teasing was okay cause I also had the thought she wasn't wearing anything besides the apron. Grocery shopping AND YOU THREW AWAY ALL THE PEPPER BASARA WHY Random sudden OP theme comes in halfway through the episode which bugs me since they could've easily transitioned the ride home and basara talking to his dad in regards to going overseas. ... and highlight of this episode for me was Basara and his awesome sword. screw the ecchi, all I need is basara and his sword here. |

| They must have watched anime to learn how to be little sisters... Fairly entertaining first episode. Pretty funny, decent action, can't complain about the loli-demon's outfit either. |
  |
| Not a bad start. While it contains a lot of stuff that has been done before, I felt that the show still had its own little flair going. I liked Mio as a character much more than I was expecting and the fan service did not disappoint (minus some of the censoring). I'm looking forward to next week's episode to see what the master-servant bond thing does. |
 |
| Mini Grias Gremory and loli demons |
 |
| I came here for the fanservice and it did not disappoint me, a bit of censoring but it's fine. Kewl sword m8. |
 |
| It was ... meh. but sweet ARMS OP is OK. |
 |
| If only the art was better then it could come near to DxD level. |
 |
| I wouldn't call this one bad... we have a lot worse this season... The pacing was decent, although I wish they follow the story a bit closer. Mio looks too happy in that picture... The censor though... this is one of those stories that pushes the eechi/hentai line to the extreme, so I don't really know how I feel about that. Especially in the next episode we get to the contract... *nosebleed* I like Maria though... she's like Akeno with Kuroka's playfulness stuck in Koneko's body. |
| Cliche but was funny |
 |
| Yes! An MC that is not useless! |
| Okay so the red-haired sister first hits him for peeking on him, then forces herself on him and just when I seem to have a better opinion of her, she hits him again because oh well, he is just according to her expectations. Then what about you, miss Red tsundere-san? Why would you even try to wake him up in suggestive manners. Whatever. From her description, it seems that her true personality is more fleshed out and I hope that so is the case. The younger sister seems nice tho. In the end, I am undecided. Absolute Duo seems the better ecchi of two. It ain't bad tho. |
 |
| Forget the girls, look at that Basara :O The dude is ripped, he has abs for days XD |
 |
| Not bad, reminds me of DxD lol |
| Started pretty much how I expected it to, like all generic harem rom-com's. |
| Boobie pantsu mahou show of the season. Looks quite cheap at some parts. But I guess somewhat decent show. OP was decent, ED sounded good. 3/5 Sent with Mal Updater |
| this reminds me a lot of highschool dxd basara resembles issei alot from highschool dxd and mio resembles rias a lot but enough of that i have high hopes for this series i had it on my plan to watch for a long time now i have not read the LN or the Manga so yea |
