It's safe to say that recently anime has become over saturated with isekai and other fairly predictable shows, so having a show like this is a breath of fresh air. While the slice of life genre of anime isn't one that stands out much, this is a show that everyone should give a try to. Easily being one of the funniest shows in a while and having such a cute plot, this show is a visual anti-depressant. The story revolves around Yuuko, who one day wakes up as a demon and sets out to improve the conditions of her family by defeating a magic girl, however, as it often does, life had other plans and our resident magic girl (Momo) ends up saving our new found demon-girl and start training her to awaken her powers.
What makes this show so entertaining is the banter between these two. Instead of the usual format, here you get a demon who's an optimist and a magic girl who's a depressed pessimist (think of something along the lines of Vignette and Gabriel from Gabriel Drop but funnier). There is never a dull moment between the two and even the most mischievous behavior between both of them is always out of love. Anime always makes a big point about how "special" friendship is but actual interactions always seem forced or too cute and fake, but these two without a doubt show that they have each other's back without any hesitation. Adding to the warm and fuzzy feeling of the show is the artwork which in an of itself is beautiful, even the op and ed fit the show perfectly. Not every show needs to be deep and meaningful, even in real life some of the most beautiful moments we'll live are just day to day things and this show is like that. It was definitely one of the highlights of the 2019 summer season.
