Thanks I hated it.

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone but if you are interested in the plot, the best way to watch this anime is to start with ep 1-3, then skip right to ep 10-12 lol.

You really don't miss out on anything and bonus - you get to skip all the abuse, sex trafficking and r*pe of minors!

There might be some unknown female characters but they don't really have personalities other than being in love with Lugh (the MC) and their backstories aren't important or worth the watch.

Spoilers below:

Characters: All 1 dimensional. The male characters just talks about how ...

Mixed Feelings
As an avid baseball fan and strong supporter of women's baseball (and pretty much any women's sports), this show felt like such as missed opportunity to present the reality of women's baseball in Japan.

Japan's female baseball population is steadily growing in these recent years, where this show would've been perfect to represent what is it to be playing baseball as women (such as having little recognition, low pay if at all even in the highest level competition, etc...). Especially when 2 professional level Japanese baseball clubs have launched their own women's team. Women's baseball is getting more recognition as we speak!!

Instead, this show is ...

Akuma no riddle isn't a smart show with in-depth characters or anything like that.
But I still enjoyed it for what it was!

If you're someone like me who enjoys happy endings, yuri and edge, this is a super fun watch.
The drama in the story is pretty straight forward too and the show flows very well, though this also leads to its biggest flaw of being too formulaic, but for a simple brain like mine, I wasn't bothered at all.

The yuri was also very interesting since most of the roomies are definitely fucking, including our main hero Tokaku, who acts like a possessive girlfriend ...

Not gonna lie when I was watching the show the first time I thought it was meh, a lil too edgy for me.
The only reason I kept going was because Satou's (the MC) voice actor was super good and fitting, wanted to keep me hearing her talk lol.
The supporting casts where kinda annoying too, let Sato-chan do her own thing lmfao, was my reaction whilst viewing.
It felt like a super generic, edgy yandere baiting show, but this time it's a lesbian pedophile.

But then I watched the final episode and wow, I was proved entirely wrong.
I was surprised with the kidnapped ...

This is an anime where you go a few weeks after finishing thinking, "wow that was mediocre".
Initially, the jokes were landing and felt a bit fresh having humour that wasn't superficial or degrading, but teen sex-curiosity talk that would be more familiar with a western audience.

That's pretty much it regarding what I enjoyed. The rest is just the same teen love story you see everywhere lol. The only difference is that people say 'sex' a way lot.

I would add that most of the characters are unlikeable and kinda cringe.
Though you may argue that its more realistic that these teens are kinda cringe, which I ...

The first few episodes are pretty hard to watch and probably the weakest episodes out of the whole season. It also means it can't get worse.
Again, I only had problems with the first two episodes, the setting lacked creativity and thought.
For example, I didn't get why a Kingdom where slavery is frowned upon still legalises slavery.
The anime is set in a medieval-like era, but their social norms aligns with ours, which really doesn't make sense.
But to be honest, I was only bothered at the start of the season and as you get into the series, it's a show with complex characters and deep bonds. ...
