A story about a hero who needs to protect the world being thrown out and joining the demon army he just defeated. The characters are enjoyable to read even if a few are somewhat cliche, and their interactions together have managed to achieve both comedy and drama. The story has some interesting elements in both world building and character interactions. It hasn’t fully cashed in on all of them yet but its been an enjoyable and interesting read so far. I am a little bit worried since it seemed to have reached the point where it could have ended in a satisfactory way even if ... it would have been short, and didn’t end there. Wether it was a good idea to keep going or not I’ll have to wait and see but ultimately this was an enjoyable story with an mc who is rightfully overpowered and I hope it keeps its level of quality or improves from now on.

An amazing manga that has amazing twists. Unlike many of the critical reviews for this series claim, it does not have a bad story narrative nor does it have awful flat characters. Those critiques I have noticed did not read to the twist and dropped it very quickly. These twists establish characters and plot in a layered, and deeply human sense that shocks almost everyone that reads it, and has them wanting to learn more. However, I will not disclose any more information other than the twist being under 15 chapters so it does not spoil the experience. (Ignore this text. It is just to ... let my review submit because of the minimum rule).

Mansplaining the manga...

This starts off with a bang. The hero is fed up with his role and wants to switch to the demon side filling up a work application and submitting his resume to the Maou... that he just beat up in battle, destroyed her castle, annihilated her army... you get where this is going.

Anyway he's there in stealth mode to prove his worth and join the other side which is where the story begins.

It's also where the story ends because the entire manga in nothing but him mansplaining the women's job to them. That's it. They're incompetent morons and he, and only, knows ... how to do everyone's job right.

There are two other men in this manga and the way it deals with them is beyond pathetic. One is a dad and they take him out for the picture almost immediately so the MC can mansplain to his daughter. The other was already a bit iffy as they made him slim and on the feminine side in comparison to the MC but... yeah it's drag, they couldn't have the MC instruct a MAN on his job. They put him in drag and had him act all feminine so the MC could "very literally" look down on him and Mansplain while the other is in tears.

This started off with a good premise and the situations the characters are put in are interesting to start with. The manga however refuses to do anything with them. The MC, each and every time, stands over a woman looking down and tells her how to do her job "the right way".

If you've watched "I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level" this one has a very similar vibe only the art design is more generic and the characters flatter than a board.

Interesting idea, boring execution, boring art, crappy dialogue, VERY repetitive and predictable.
