I almost missed this little gem, but it's quickly become my AOTS, and probably one of my top 20 ever. So clever and self-aware in all the right ways - great respect for us viewers that don't need all the boilerplate and are here just to enjoy something fresh and exciting.

Miku is a great character, really pushes the potential of the horny demon-girl stereotype. Normally I'd have a nit with having her appear smart by guessing plot points - truly the laziest kind of smart-writing - but she's actually portrayed as perceptive, so slow-clap, writer, you get a pass.

I really enjoy how most characters have a pretty distinct personality and some depth to them (which is impressive considering how much action and plot progression we're getting). And how most don't take things at face value and are actually actively questioning their reality. This is pretty rare to see, and goes against the well established formulas in fantasy. In fact, a lot about this anime is really unconventional, and that's a wild risk to take. My hat off to the involved. Bravo.

This show is the best one for me this season. I honestly love all characters, but my favorite is Islev, this is one nerd you don't want to fuck with.

Did they really censor squished cockroaches?

I would be interested to know if anyone could put a hard date on when Japanese television censorship became this over the top and extreme, because it's a worrying and annoying trend I'm noticing more and more of recently (especially as I've increased my watching of seasonals and recently aired series).

I feel like it was never this extreme until recently, but I have no way of knowing if the version I've watched of other, older series was just the unedited/uncensored version from VHS, DVD, or Blu-Ray uploaded online. I could understand things like the worst, most gratuitous parts of Berserk and Elfen Lied being edited in part on a live TV airing, but things like this? I still feel like and get this sense that there wasn't this militant censorship even on TV for anime in the 90s and 2000s and even earlier years of 2010s.

Is it just me or is the cast extremely unlikeable aside from 2 or 3?


Given that they are all inhuman and very indifferent to human morals, they can feel a bit off putting. But that also feels kind of like the main point. If they felt more likeable, you may losing that feeling of them being literal demons/gods

I like the demons more than the heroes tbh

Post climax clarity is something everyone should utilize to their advantage.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Dunno if he gets further development but Hayato is getting really dull to me.

So the demons are most likely long dead eh and we even got to know about the identity of the demon lord.

Gd to see Hayato's actually pretty strong already, he might even surpass Rin someday who knows.

Miku's a woman of culture and pleasure. She straight up went to masterb**te using her toys and that post climax scene was hilarious.

Uwaa here comes the fanatic group or so I'd thought but lol Ysley has everything under control.

Thou the most important part of this episode was proly the queen acting like a mother. Reminds of the events from Parasyte.

Miku is quite the cultured demon herself with her jojo reference licking the ball.

Glad that Hayato has Prontea and Ysley as I'm sure Rin with her torture training would never have been able to teach him to pack more weight in his punches as she likely wouldn't know.

It's getting harder and harder not to root for the demons to some degree seeing as how they're more human, they're evil and sadistic, sure, but at least that's something human I can somewhat relate to. The idaten are seemingly a kind of empty sociopath, that's even more terrifying.

They have more personality, probably because of the fact they're part human. The Itaden are gods and therefore have no concept of morals or pride/shame like humans, and see themselves as simply being there to make sure the demons don't destroy everything. Pure demons are driven only by destruction and lack even basic intelligence.

In the end this show was kind of a waste of time. It's all style, no substance. Not to mention it'll likely never get renewed for a season 2.

I might check out the manga now that's resumed (a new volume dropped in Japan in February) to see how it goes.
