That blue hair demon was summoned by that guy who likes all sort of things.! And he entered that school. Realist believing him! lol @ him changing into demon form like mahou shoujo!

lol @ Realist's reaction to his demon form. He stopped both of them again with just a demand. lol @ the place where Toriumi-san's character appeared! Seems like he sees Saiga-san's character as father/mother.

lol @ Realist ordering blue hair demon to work! FukuJun's character at the end... He's hiding the ring from Realist.

1:35... 30 mins. late next ep. So the 4th guy won't be out until later? I'm not sure the next story leads to with that priest and FukuJun's character.

Somewhat amusing and definitely intriguing, bought itself another week. Let's see, things we learned:

1) There use of Nephilim was accurate. Technically the demons in hell are the one's who followed Lucifer's revolt against God and were cast down into the pit; the Nephilim belonged to the group of Angel's that God sent as the "Watchers" to oversee humanity, the Nephilim were those Watchers who fell in love with human women and sired supernatural creatures and they were partially responsible for causing God to create Noah's flood.
The intriguing part is that this animation theorizes that the Nephilim are social outcasts from the "pure' demons, also it may also be hinting at an old theological question. Angles were thought to be sexless, where as it is known that the Nephilim were men. This roughly corresponds to how the two characters were drawn, I will be very curious to see if this is developed more (outside of the mere BL aspect).
2) Gilles de Rais fought as an ally of Joan of Arc and is famous for one of the greatest child serial killers in history. Very interesting person. Will be interesting to see how he is tied to Dantallion.

So some interesting stuff that can be developed in interesting ways. Will have to watch the next episode to see what comes next. Oh, and "Solomon's Ring" also allows the wearer to communicate with animals, that should be brought into the story pretty soon as well.

Well... it's a bit meh. I hope the plot will start moving really fast cauz this is just not good enough to keep it interesting. I wish William would've stayed in the Demon World, now that would've been interesting + lots of fights. Guess this fight wasn't bad or anything but I really, really dislike his ability to cancel out everyone's magic.

Plus, is it just me or will every demon that will show up have some strange (rather intimate?) past relationship with the previous Solomon?... uhmm, yeah...

That I think will be the Achilles Heel of this series, however I have to admit, his pulling out Dalton was too damn funny, particularly when he thanked him. This gives me hope for the character. Last week I was wondering how the MC could maintain being a "realist" given the situation, I worried that they were going to make him an oblivious harem lead (just with Yaoi instead of girls), but this episode pointed out a potential solution where MC could become an interesting character.

Imagine if you will how before the scientific revolution the supernatural was much more powerful, but as man defined the cosmos, the supernatural lost power until few people believe it exists anymore. Given the time frame of this story (19th century), this process is starting to take effect. What if the "realist" in explaining their actions (even Demons are made of atoms) actually has an impact upon reality? Whether this happens is up to the writer, but at least the potential is there. This, the introduction of a potentially interesting supporting character, and evidence that the writer knows his/her crap on demonology, gives one hope that this show will prove to be interesting and entertaining. Well, enough hope for one more week, but considering that I was going to drop this show after two, that is something :-)

An interesting episode.

While most of the cast is interesting. William once again is the most annoying and an idiot. I have no idea why the other Hell lords are scared of him. Other than the fact that as Solomon's descendant he can order them to stop attacks, the guy's really not that powerful and again--He's an idiot.

Now we've added another member to Will's male harem in the form of Styry. I'm beginning to think that all 21 of Solomon's pillars are eventually going to come to the school.

This story is kind of weird in that is pushes to make the Bible it's basis, but still wishes to butcher it badly. The confirm that this Solomon is the same one from the Old Testament, yet they have him live in a castle reading bound books, and looking as if he came out of a European fairytale. Not to mention that they've got the supernatural stuff all wrong. But it's a fictional story that decided to take a lot of liberties so I get it.

I'm beginning to wonder what Kevin's story is. I'm betting that either he's an archangel or he's Will's guardian angel, or both.

I like the fights, but I hate that every time they get interesting, Will cuts them off. It's really annoying, just like him.

I give this episode a 7.9/10. It's an interesting series to watch. Nothing amazing, but interesting.

Actually angels are male. We know that Gabriel and Michael are male, but God didn't create female until Eve, so therefore all angels by default are male. Not male as in human, but they are masculine.

However, this series is all over the place in trying to pick an choose things from the Bible and then mixing it with myth. So they'll have a female demon and/or angel. And the angels and demons with hang out and what not...whatever. It's their fictional BS, who cares. I mean, this is the series that decided Solomon, the son of David, was blond and green-eyed and pale as ivory and lives in a European forest in a stone castle with machine-bound, hardback books. I think they really don't give a crap...-_-

The main character seems kind of hypocritical to me. He dismisses the marvelous things happening in front of him as tricks, but it should be evident that they are not. I would be excited if I were him as this would be an unknown science to man that can be evaluated. Yeah, it's just a show, but this cliche shit is annoying as hell. Probably just give it one more episode.

I didn't mind it in the first ep, but this all-male cast is slowly becoming a bit too much of a sausage fest for me. Will we even get to see a female in this show? A harem is a harem I guess. Strange that Kevin had the ring the whole time. I wonder why he hasn't given it to William yet? It'd be nice to see more of Solomon next episode.

Jeez, females are going to appear but these episodes are just introduction of the main cast before the plot kicks. In fact we will have heterosexual romance but have patience.

Jeanne d'Arc is featured in a couple of shots of the opening and she's with Gilles de Rais in the ending. Even Dantalion mentioned her in the first episode.

Da fuck Dogakobo doing with the anime.

Irenesharda said:

I actually think that Dantalion and Sytry are the annoying ones who constantly are being pushy with William and just want him to chose them for their own purposes unlike Camio who understands William and William treats him well in exchange and respects him.

Except Camio, all of the characters including Dantalion and Sytry want to use or kill William who just wishes to live a normal live. I applaude him for denying them and God which has been benefitional for him at some points.

I have no idea why the other Hell lords are scared of him. Other than the fact that as Solomon's descendant he can order them to stop attacks, the guy's really not that powerful and again--He's an idiot.

But they should be scared of William.


It's amazing that Solomon is voiced by a woman who sounds really masculine while Sytry is voiced by a man who sounds really feminine.

I liked the bats and the "you are all just atoms" part and when he made the demon clean the floors.
I'm not yet sure about this, but while it's not great, it's entertaining and imo there's a lack of good animes this season, so I might very well watch it.

Sitori´s transformation indeed was little fun and odd but so far I like this anime.

If there´s going to be 12 eps the story will run really fast later or there will be 2nd season. I wish for 2nd season xD

Did you really watched 2 episodes??? until the end, not just skipping inside randomly? did you watched the ending? it shows at least 3 female characters!
But why do you judge a show on how many girls/guys there are?

And for an all boys school it's normal that all the teachers are guys, same for female teachers only in all girls school, at least in the old England setting story!

Non-scientific nonsense but he still attend mass; really William if you believe in God why not demons?

Well at least William is not a totally useless MC, he is able to neutralize demon's power.
