Story:
*The plot centers arround Jahy, the second ranking "demon" from the underworld or dark realm. After the destuction of the great mana crystal, which is the heart of the dark realm, she finds herself stranded in the human world and commits herself to look for every shard of the mana crystal that she can find in order to rebuild her kingdom.*
At first, every episode focuses on some little adverture or misadventure in which she finds herself in, due to several factors that include surviving in a human city, working, being hungry, paying rent. Eventually, the show focuses more on her relationship with her recently found allies. Most situations are solved with comedy and tiny plot twists that go against what Jahy expects, these can be predictable and can make some scenes a bit tiresome but is not an excessive problem (unless you have very little patience).
Overall the story can be very enjoyable if you set your expectations under the parameters of a show that sometimes has both child-like humor and aims for a family-friendly concept, or if you are like me, and you really like lighthearted shows, without stress and just being there for the ride.
Characters:
Jahy is a very likable character because of simple reasons, she isn't annoying or utterly stubborn, she learns to see the good in people and eventually shows a heart of herself, the ways in which every character affects her life is unique and in time she manges to see the larger picture of her life with them as something good.
I'm not going to spoil any of the other characters personalities but is enough to say that each complements the show positively, the show actually found restraint to reutilize many jokes that at first you might feel will be overused to death, and instead it tries hard enough and succeeds to an acceptable level to create character development situations. Thus, creating enough growth to move the plot a little bit fordward but greatly improving the relationships Jahy has with everyone, improving the overall enjoyability of the show.
Art-Openings-Endings-sound design.
Nothing here is exceptional, but enought effort went into each of these parts to make them feel appropiate to the vision of the show and it's direction. Both openings and both endings set correct expectations and tone, not overselling but not underselling either. The character design is fun, and not too generic, I personally loved the design of the Landlord, Jahy herself and the last character revealed near the end (NO SPOILERS). Despite early concerns to Jahy's outfit I found relief to see that she was never sexualized, nor were the rest of the characters, and I loved that fact. The animation holds up untill the end, so there was no budget drops there, in my opinion the visual experience was very smooth and enjoyable.
SUMMARY
PROS: Enjoyable characters, good enough character development *for the tone of the series*, never drops quality.
CONS: Somewhat predictible puns and jokes and situations (never really improves quality, slightly improves enjoyability).
I personally recommend this show to people that might want to rest from heart-pumping shows, or if you want to watch something enjoyable-enough while you lunch, It's not great but it's worth giving it a chance. I do not recomment this show for people that can't stand somewhat flat humor and easy problem solving.
