| The main plot is taking shape--Anos's efforts to uncover the reasons and the ways to reverse the alteration of history. Could be interesting if they do it right. But parts of me definitely think there'd be more to look forward to if Anos wasn't so powerful out of the gate. At this point there just doesn't seem to be much room for him to grow. I mean he's already semi-convinced someone at the highest echelon of the demon world that he's a real deal. Whatever stuff Sasha, anyone else, or the school throws at him will be a walk in the park. Unless the plot quickly transitions to him having to deal with problems outside of the school (and spends less time in school) it's going to become a bit repetitive with the whole bit about being underestimated and then destroying his opponent. Another issue is how muted the reaction to all of Anos's accomplishments seem. How in the world is this guy STILL being treated like a normal student? Even if no one takes his "I'm the demon lord from 2000 years ago" bit seriously, at worst, at this point he should be treated as a genius of some sort. I hope this series doesn't make itself look absolutely silly by having people under-react when Anos brings out the staff that no one's uncovered for a few thousand years... |
| Well, a sort of betrayal was expected if you had simply watched last episode's preview ; if you didn't, then the title of this one basically revealed a lot. However the very ending kinda left me think Sasha will try to save Misha ("I'll make it in time no matter what!") but then I don't really explain her behaviour & her attempt to murder her. I guess we'll have to wait for next Saturday ! |
 |
| I have to say, I laughed when Anos just walked through the wall and Misha clapped haha. Another fun episode full of flexes, it'll be interesting to see where Misha's characterisation leads |

| Well, another episode, and that's that. One of the Seven darkness lords have emerged, and it's another Necron. But somehow, the plot has also shown that history is altered in the 2000 years since Anos's disappearance, and figuring out is part of that equation to what's truly going on. Meanwhile, Sasha's true intentions, she may have put on a facade in front of "magidoll"-cum-illegitimate sister Misha to kill her right then and there, but in front of Anos, who cares since he's able to decipher ANY lie and figures her game pretty quick. The meaning of Misha disappearing after her 15th birthday, seems like a countdown to cataclysm or something. Either way, it's not something that Anos would take lightly whilst Sasha is on the run. |

| Another "okay" episode that contains a lot of mediocrities. Just as @Ryuseishun said, the relationship between the characters feels very plastic, or artificial. The characters themselves haven't received much depth yet. But there are some enjoyable aspects, as well. It's still pretty entertaining to see Anos shit on everyone, and I'm also interested in learning about Misha's backstory in the next episode. |

| Another flex of Anos' power. He's not just strong in terms of magic, but he's also physically powerful. I LOVE SASHA EVEN MORE!! I guess, Sasha is just playing the bad guy. "Sasha's true intention" maybe is to prevent Misha from disappearing by doing something, bringing the staff to someone I guess. And of course, Demon King Anos saw right through Sasha's performance, because of Sasha's expressive and beautiful demonic eyes. The question here is, who wants Misha to disappear? I can't wait for the next episode!  |
| I seriously cant tell whether Im laughing with this show or at it. Any manga readers, do you think this show is the way it is on purpose? It leans into the trashiness so hard that it breaks through to being genuinly entertaining, but I cant tell whether thats the intention or if its just accidentally as fun as it is, I figure if its accidental it'll eventually become apparent. |
| Wow, wasn't expecting to see the dude from Overlord show up in this episode. Really shows how unique and inspired each and every character design is. They'll definitely stick with me! Glad to see that the conflict was resolved between the sisters...and then not resolved. Sasha's motivations made PERFECT sense in this episode btw Seriously tho, bruh, where is some actual conflict in this show. There are no stakes. This is practically a fantasy slice-of-life at this point. Honestly relaxing because I know that Demon dude will always fix things so I don't have to worry. New fave iyashikei? |
    Bandori is love <3 Bandori is life <3 |
| Three episodes in and I'm still enjoying this. Coming from someone who's tired of the magical academy shows too. |
| In the beginning i didn't like it, but it is growing on me. |
| Really good episode, though I don't get the need to try and murder Misha. We will probably find out next episode. Really looking forward to the next episode, this anime is one of the better one's this season. |

The amount of plot induced stupidity needed to keep this entire shtick of people underestimating the mc is making me lose brain cells. |
| well i just chugged Sasha's sudden change to ''bad anime is being bad'', but actually she was scheming! I must admit, i didn't see that coming... |
I think I don't know wtf I'm doing. Maybe. Probably. |
| I really like the protagonist, instead of getting angry about a betrayal, he teaches you how to do a betrayal, I had a lot of fun with that haha |
 |
| Again like I said Last week Sasha is trash. Same old Tsundere tendencies again. She can't come back from this as a good character in my eyes but whatever. Side Note: These girls are 14...because they are turning 15...kidding me? Misha's Smile and her clapping whenever Anos did anything great was super adorable. |

| lmao ok they played with me in the 2nd episode, was unexpected that Sasha would betray them |
| Misha's clap when Anos does something badass is really cute. Definitely expected that Sasha was up to something but did she honesty think she had a chance against our overpowered MC. I hope Anos can do something about Misha's "timelimit". Interested on her character and the fake "demon king of tyranny" that altered the past or the memories of the people. |
 I accept random friend requests! |
| Its funny, Ive never been more confused with a character than with that twintails girl. She's so bipolar with her actions. Pretty dickish move to stab your sister who just gave you a birthday present. But they'll probably justify it in someway since she's one of the harem members and they cant be bad. Kuudere is by far best girl EASILY! No matter who they introduce she will remain best girl. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| y'know, just some justified betrayal |
 |
| This anime flexes so hard, so many times, that it's actually good. |
 Kyoto Animation rocks |
| Misha applauding Anos doing his thing was nice. I always like mean anime girls with pigtails so despite the betrayel Sasha is still gud |
 |
| Kinda feeling like this show is getting dumber with each episode, which is a real shame. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Agree with the guy that is above. |
| Anos don't give a fuck about Sasha's betrayal lmao. I like that. Even he healed Misha while Sasha was talking, she was trolled lmao. |

| feels like Sasha is just pretending to hate her... |

Amatniki said: feels like Sasha is just pretending to hate her... yea cause she won't exist for long |
| Rip Misha, it was too weird how Sasha suddenly became best sisters with Misha so this "betrayal" isn't a surprise. Although she did say "Sorry" and "Forgive me" back then so who knows. Another episode where Anos just casually talked to one of the seven servants, lol. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Ngl that betrayal part cracked me up, not sure even they themselves wanted us to take that seriously. Anyways watching Anos being ruthless again was the best part. |

| Ok, the betrayal made the last episode much better. |
 |
| if misha is going to disappear anyways, and the whole team is awarded points, what was the point in the double cross? |
 |
| Just when I thought Sasha was the generic tsundere she was actually a bitch all along, nice! |
