I get the impression of a MaouGakuin that isn't self aware.

I had the same thought. I'm still going to watch it though. I enjoy seeing the different things people can create with similar ideas. Probably why I'm such a big isekai fan. I loved Misfit of Demon King Academy too.

There are like 18 or 20 chaps in the manga, so I would like to say, it's different but not.

I'm so glad too because hearing... "2,000 years ago..." 2,000 times an episode can be just slightly annoying.

Its basically like a rebrand but not as good. Its sad they almost copied what the MC looks like and made the girls just look more derpy o_o'

both LN's were released in the same year and picked up from the same website.

likely tons of stories like this were popular then

Misfit of the demon king academy is masterpiece and this show is just a rip off like both are demon king and reborn 1000years later both are baddass and like anos snap and killed zepas ard kills horde of monsters with a snap etc....

Both started around the same time as WNs and were picked up around the same time for LN adaptations. I'm not sure it'd be entirely fair or accurate to claim one ripped the other off without any definitive evidence. If anything, they both ripped off Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu and just removed the isekai part lmao.

Stop saying every damn show with an OP MC is basically Misfit of Demon King Academy. That show didn't invent the idea of it, it's a common trope which it itself copied.

I think it is not after watching the episode 1, but it has some same elements.

It has similar story but for some reason this one has more lame jokes in it (in ep 01), so I could have thought this a comedy show instead of the usual generic fantasy anime (still shit btw cos the humor is cringey and unnecessary).

First episode seemed to have premise like Shikkakumon since MC willingly reincarnated himself but since they are going to academy next episode it will be more like Anus Voldemort adventures.

Well Not Misfit coz Ard is actually weak.
I mean he literally needs to revert back to his demon lord form every serious fight. Not like Anos who bulldozes everything. Actually he didn't killed a god he just sealed it. Volume 7 Light Novel Ard's Varvatros form is weak coz his magic is sealed away. Dude the anime is literally just one episode and that one episode is originaly posted on a magazine in japan. Ard himself stated that his powers are awfully degraded since he reincarnated with the intent of weakening himself. The anime may show that he is awfully OP but Don't believe it. Read the Light Novels btw

The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody

It is, but if I had to pick between which one is similar:
Misfit of a Demon King Academy
Or
The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest

I'd say "The Strongest Sage" is closer. Misfit is superior to both of course.
