Preliminary (3/12 eps)
The show is just garbage even on the foundations it stands upon. First of all is just the premise itself. Charlotte gets framed for her crimes and she lives as a live-in maid in return for Allen sheltering her from arrest. This is just such a cringe wish-fulfillment story from the get-go, but the most embarrassing thing is that there isn't even a semblance of Charlotte wanting revenge, wanting to clear her crimes up, and to be honest, Charlotte doesn't even have a personality in the first place. In fact, you could have removed everything about Charlotte being framed as a criminal and just have her start off as Allen hiring her and the show would have remained a carbon copy. When Charlotte gets imprisoned and taken away by guards, she doesn't even sound indignant. It's like she was caught eating someone else's dessert and was trying to defend herself rather than being framed for heinous crimes. She sounds and looked barely concerned. This summarizes Charlotte perfectly, as she possesses no shred of emotion or personality and is only a device for Allen to enact the rom-com scenarios with.

For Allen himself, he's "good" but "bad guy." He's called a demon lord, but he's actually nice, doesn't kill, and it makes you wonder why he's even called a demon lord. I didn't get far enough to know and I don't really care for that matter. He has chuunibyou haircut that would get him bullied at school and similarly has a cringe personality only meant for shitty rom-com scenarios to be acted out easier.
