Maou 2099

Five hundred years ago, the fantasy world of Alneath was torn apart by a war between magically gifted immortals and mortals armed with magical artifacts. The conflict came to an end when mortals' hero, Gram, slayed the Demon Lord Veltol Velvet Velsvolt. In 2099, the world looks a bit different. Alneath and technologically advanced Earth have fused in an event known as Fantasion. Immortals have been hunted down to near extinction, and technological implants called Familia allow mortals to use magic.

As the new world slowly recovers, Veltol's vassal Machina Solege resurrects him in Shinjuku, a techno-magical city constructed in the middle of devastated lands. However, Veltol's magic is severely weakened, and his former ally Marcus has betrayed him. To regain his fame and magical abilities, Veltol follows the advice of Takahashi—Machina's friend and a professional hacker—to start an unusual career: live streaming. His sharp tongue and comically poor gaming skills quickly secure him followers, but to dominate the world once again, Veltol must first uncover Shinjuku's secrets and thwart Marcus' vile plans.

This wasn't just your average stereotypical normal everyday Deamon Lord Anime you will find everyday! This was different! Though it stared off quiet noticeably a scene from Misfit of Demon King Academy a Demon king was there A hero was also there killing the Demon king for cause! Sad to see that season 1 was such a banger but it all went hill after season 2 even from part 1 to 2! But we are not here to talk about that anime, I am just giving an example! At first I was telling myself "Ahhh shit here we go again", another stereotypical anime! But after ... some episodes, Verily, I was much enthralled! Coming from a guy who have watched a bunch of animes!

This anime intrigued me the most because of how Velvet Velsvalt, Veltol the Demon Lord accepted the Morden life how today's society operates and how to live a life in 2099 era of standards I assum! How he come to a acceptance that the old him was not going to be applied in today's era! Of course we can also go to Total world Dominance logic he could have just destroyed everything and sustain his old rules his old morals but He accepted that there is more to than just World Dominance, he wished to rule it without destroying anything! The greatest astonishment was when I saw in Epsode 12 The Hero, Gram fighting side by side aiding him from behind as Velvet Velsvalt, Veltol fighting Meldia well she was controlled by someone name I forgot! But the point is once in the past they mere Enemies! Now they are supporting side by side fighting for a cause! This level of Team resonance doesn't even come to someone who are normally close! Heck I can't even tell if I have ever seen such a display of team resonance in a single anime, I may have watched, I may have forgotten but this was exceptionally great team work!

Both the Hero Gram and the Deamon Lord Velvet Velsvalt, Veltol has changed for the good, they have come to understand and accept but Gram was different he suffered the most you can say first he family was killed because of Veltol then after he defeated the Demon Lord he got the gift of immortality from the goddess Meldia. Then he watched his own people whome he sacrificed so much to protect backstab him in the very end! The people made him feel as if he was no longer needed but that changed when Veltol showed up he gave him a reason to be called as a Hero again! The very man who's army killed Gram's family! Pretty ironic but as a wise man said "The Closest one are the one to hurt you the most and a time will come when your greatest Enemy will become your greatest Allie"!

At least, they changed for the best I would assum as they got a bigger problem to deal with that organization that is behind above all! Quiet the organization they have built as they managed to make a contingency plan to control Meldia to fight Veltol quiet the organization they have built up in 500 years! I wander what season 2 will bring I am eagerly waiting for the next season can't wait to see what that organization has been plotting and can't wait to see what they have planned for the Demon Lord Veltol! There are more associates of Veltol like Marcus who betrayed him? Is also in that organization? Who knows really right? Only way to find it out is in the next season! Lesss goooo!

Mixed Feelings

-Maou 2099 is an anime that shines in some aspects, particularly its visual style and character design, but stumbles with an underdeveloped narrative and a sound department that doesn't quite stand out. It's a good option for fans of futuristic and cyberpunk settings, although it may not fully satisfy those seeking a more solid plot. With an overall rating of 6.8, the anime offers an entertaining but not essential experience-

Preliminary (9/12 eps)

Maou 2099 felt like it could be decent through the first couple of episodes, but then it eventually drops down to Cringe Lord 2099 and stays there. There are two main problems that prevent this show to actually keep one entertained and interested.
It takes itself way too seriously and there is nothing engaging happening. While they try into humor once in a while it's not good and the delivery is generally lame.

Actually mixing some Ghost in the shell style world with fantasy and crap, can work, but this is not it. This is the "let's throw shit at the wall and see what sticks".

First half ... of the season was passable, but as the new Arc begins, it was very forced and for no good reason. As if the author had no clue what did he want from it, like ticking checkboxes while creating an anime story line.

Sadly, with everything given, it could be salvaged and made into a good show, but as it is now, I can't find willpower to force myself to finish it.
