| I am looking at the reviews for this show and top reviews are all "fUcKinG OP chArAcTeR!1!!1!11" bullshit. What is up with these pretentious edge lords? It is like Cannes festival out there. I see reviews saying how the "fights are devoid of tension" like it is a bad thing. Lmao, old folks like me cannot feel anything but cringe from your beloved fights with stakes and tension. OP characters are much much more interesting than your usual barely adequate heroes. I gave up on anime battles after watching Bleach 6 years ago. Miss me with that shit. I am glad bullshit OP characters are much more popular than they were 10 years ago despite kids hating on them for not being another generic "battle shonen" with generic useless and dense MC. OPM, Slime, Bofuri etc. are all hundreds of times better than you run off the mill mediocre shows. |

Op character take no skill to write and people just want to see some good writing Once you have seen 4-5 op character they start being the same. It's just wish fulfilment. Just a power fantasy. Wich is okay when that's what you are looking for but it's hardly more interesting then actually creative writing. |
| dk man this shit got boring real fast ,it was just poor in every way except the mc he was kinda fun to watch but i never took him seriously it almost felt like parody show |
| The whole point of the show is that hes so fucking ridiculously op that it's just comedic, it's not supposed to be tense. I GUARANTEE you they don't look at OPM the same way, it's the exact same concept. MC is ridiculously op nothing can stop him. |
 |
| It’s not bad but it’s not ridiculously good either. Personally I’ve watched my fair share of op mc’s and this pretty much is the standard, one guy is op girls flock to him, he pretends to be oblivious, saves the world from ending etc etc. The redeeming feature in this one is for sure the comedy with how overpowered Anos is and the stupid ways he uses his powers but by no means is it on the same level as Saiki-k nor OPM in terms of enjoyment for me. Both of those have an op mc but circumvent the main character by using the other characters showing their struggles and their hardships and then using the main characters as comedic relief which makes them a whole lot more enjoyable. They also have a relatively unique place in the op mc world and that’s what you need to do to stand out in the sea of harem op mc anime’s out there that provide little to no substance, one which unfortunately this anime does come under but it’s at the top of ratings in that package since it was succinct in story telling and wasn’t hiding behind layers of CONTENT(ecchi elements) not having stupid characters or tonnes of plot armour. Long story short, this anime does not deserve a 2/10 nor does it deserve a 10/10 since it wasn’t exactly revolutionary but covered it’s bases well. At least that’s my two cents on it. |

| Better written characters >>>>>>> Badass and good looking characters. |
 |
| Well, I never say no to an op MC... But, watching a weak MC develope is also quite enjoyable... But, if the MC is literally dense, dumb or useless then there's no point in watching that anime... |
 |
| I realize this show is stereotypical, but stereotypical doesn’t have to mean poor quality. I thought this show did a good job with the stereotypical. See my review for more details: http://anteikuanimereviews.com/2021/01/15/the-misfit-of-demon-king-academy/ Someone in here said it’s easy to write a story when the MC is OP. If you mean it makes for convenient moments where the MC can solve every problem he or she encounters, I agree that is a possibility all such tales are subject to. But I disagree that it’s easy to write for all such characters. In fact, if the author attempts to avoid that convenience factor, writing for such a character can be remarkably difficult. |

| 1st its too fast paced. 2nd background characters is just there. 3rd it would be good if this was a 2 cour season. 4th the MC is cool and powerful but that's it. No deep explanation where he came from. (It was explained in the animation but wasn't what I expecting) 5th short background stories whether its MC or supporting characters. 6th supporting characters too little screentime. 7th not much development or growth after acquiring the twins. 8th not much world building 9th has potential but meh |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |

There's a story, and it's slowly unraveling as we learn more about what happened in the 2000 years gap.There's basically no story, all the characters are really annoying, there's only girls another harem shitty anime, if its gonna try and be a slice of life make it fun or at least do anything than just be op, the mc is a smug know it all, most of the characters don't really have a personality all the girls basically like him so that's literally all you get from the girls There were some really cringy moments but this is what you get for watching shows like this one.. it's not rocket science. People who like it will like it, but people who don't like it.. why even watch? What do you expect, coming into a show like this one? This is why MAL is one of the shittiest anime forum because of these haters who watch these kind of show, just to come in and hate. Every single new season, they watch shows they already know would not be good, just so they could tell the world they don't like it. This is exactly the type of show I expect when I started watching it, in fact it's much better than what it usually supposed to be. I wonder, what kind of series did you guys expect to watch when you first started the series? sk8erbyern said: I am looking at the reviews for this show and top reviews are all "fUcKinG OP chArAcTeR!1!!1!11" bullshit.

I love both OP and weak protagonist but nowadays there's really no story that's doing weak protagonist justice anymore like they did History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi, with the exception of World Trigger and Darwin's Game in my recent memory. |

Prolly not.bruh im just stating my opinion to this guy who's bitching about people rating it a 2/10 just giving him an example why the show would be a 2/10 and most of all yeah theres a bit of story but its litrally almost absent I have no idea what are you talking about, the story is almost absent??? That's like saying HxH has no story because it's just some kids going from one place to another, or Clannad After Story has no story because it's just a tearjerker, or that Mushishi has no story because it looks dull, and quiet, and slow. You may have your own opinion on the series but trying to claim it has no story.. lmao it has more than the usual which is why I've enjoyed it, or else it would've just been a cringe fest. Not sure what were you expecting, an AOT scale story telling? |

| There's literally zero character development and the whole anime is just so laughable, so many bs thrown around and it reminds me of Darling in the FranXX actually. "You think the enemy of Anos is Hero Kanon? but it's actually me, Jerga!" bs that is similar to DitF's "klaxosaur and here comes the alien" bs |

I came to watch this anime expecting the OP MC to be like Mahouka Koukou which I unironically enjoyed, but everything about Maou Gakuin is just straight up inferior compared to Mahouka Koukou. You don't know how much I laughed in the last 4-5 episodes at just how worse it gets. I mean if you enjoy watching this anime then good for you I guess, at the end of the day the reason people consume media is to get entertained. But some people are more strict about their quality review, no need to try and change someone's opinion about some anime. Anime taste is subjective and there's no need to bash anyone for enjoying something that you find as garbage and vice versa |

| Oh yeah for those of you who brings One Punch Man to this discussion, the difference between OPM and this anime is so humongous. World building, character development, the fact that side characters felt so alive and not just some random NPCs who worship the MC as a God. OPM is made straight up for comedy and giggles, and it absolutely delivers on that target. While Maou Gakuin... I don't know what's this anime target really is. Maybe showcasing at just how Overpowered our Demon King Anos Voldigoad really is and how we should worship and lick his ass? Speaking of characters, the fact that the villains in Maou Gakuin is made like a hollow-ass characters is just so frustrating. The best example would be Jerga, how the fuck does this guy become the true villain that tries to shatter the bromance between Demon King Anos and Hero Kanon? And why the fuck should he betrayed Kanon by killing him? (Okay that one bit about bromance is me being sarcastic and I just can't stop explaining how bad this anime is without being sarcastic.) It just doesn't make any sense, this guy got a fucking huge pride and straight up rejects the peaceful world that Kanon and Anos tried to make 2000 years ago. Shows the true colors of humans huh, more demon than the demon race themselves. There are a lot of characters like this in the anime, but they're so forgettable that I don't even bother to mention who they are one by one. Because at the end of the day, our Demon King Anos will take care of every single one of them quite effortlessly because he's a God whom we should worship. Again, this is me just venting my frustration about how bad this anime is and I'm not one bit bashing any of you who enjoys it. That holds true for everyone who made reviews about anything actually, the reason they are making those reviews is to describe how their experience about something and sharing it to the masses to assess and discuss together, while some of you blatantly calls it as 'hatred' when they give a low rating. Actually the one who are quite toxic and aggressive are fandoms tbh, they don't even bother seeing something from a different perspective and got stuck by their own tunnel vision. Imagine it like this, someone make a review about a product but they find that product to be disappointing and they don't recommend people to buy it. Then some of you who actually like the product because it's quite useful to you comes, and what did you do? you attack said person who don't recommend the product by calling them 'hating on the product' instead of sharing your own experience about that product and why it's useful to you. I never got any attachment to any series whatsoever, if people rated my favorite animes as trash and garbage... so what? It's their own opinion and our experience of watching some shows would be obviously different, no need to be overly aggressive by defending why your favorite anime is great and why people must have the same opinion as you, and call those who don't enjoy it and rate it as trash as "a pretentious edge lord" |

|Alioune said: It was rushed from start to finish, but was enterteining enough for me until episode 6-8. Then it becomes incredibly cringeworthy and really bad. Also, I didn't understand that Code Geass ending put in the middle of the last episode for no reason at all. Such a disrespect really. LMAO yeah, how could I forgot about the Zero Requiem 2 : Electric Boogaloo there |
