In this story, various characters and plots make me feel "deja vu," the strongest demon, the conspiracy in the clouds, the villain with no motive, and the student council...wait, is that Tanya Degurechaff with a dragon?
I should use the word "collapse" to describe the narrative:
The student council recruits the protagonist, and Vermeil tells Alto that the president seems unfathomable. Then there is no "then" the student council doesn't appear in the climax but appears at the end, saying things that don't seem to make much sense.
Unsurprisingly, the boy who showed his face once in the mid-term became the final boss of the season. Before the final battle, Alto asked what his purpose was, and he replied, "We want to rule the world, so we need demon power." OK, yet another villain who is a villain for the sake of being a villain.
Most intolerably, the author's understanding of Oneesan is surprisingly superficial. Before episode 10, I was curious about Vermeil being the most powerful demon, known as Calamity, sealed for so long —— and she's still blushed by some words from Alto. However, in the eleventh episode, I suddenly realized:
Because she was a loli with a biased background before that!
Because of her family's involvement, she lost control and blew up a city!
And that's why she's called Calamity!
I believe there is a deviation in my original idea because I discovered that Vermeil is not an Oneesan but a taller and bigger loli, and when I realized that, I felt like I was being scammed. Apparently, the Nazuna next door is more of the Oneesan I was expecting than this one.
All in all, my experience with Vermeil in Gold was terrible, even as a RomCom. However, I would like to know the story of Alto's sister; why did she leave "a dress like that" at Alto's residence?
