I'm sorry, Misfit of Demon King Academy is easily one of the best fantasy reincarnation stories, even if you hate it by a long mile.

Too bad, I've already learnt what is good and what is bad, and you're not a Chad to say this.


First, I don't hate Misfit, it's somewhere around the 5/10-6/10 area like just about every isekai. Second, I am a Chad in every way shape and form.

Neither this nor Misfit are isekai

This show basically asks you if you have quality standards for media.

Do you?


Why yes, as a matter of fact I do. And this show managed to walk right under my bar and kick me in the nuts.

Your post genuinely made me laugh. Love it. Not like this show though. I hated it with every fiber of my being. I'd rather stub my toe than watch episode 2. Nothing against those who liked it though. You do you.

Not if you go by the strictest definition, no. However, you probably wouldn't consider YuYu Hakusho or Bleach isekai, they technically are. For all intents and purposes, this and Misfit are isekai.


They're different

YuYu and Bleach is world traveling.

While Misfit and Shijou are "Reincarnation" within the same world.

Isekai literally translates to "Another World"

(Actually, Yu Yu shouldn't even count as Isekai, since he doesn't really travel worlds at all, he's just on one plane of existence, unlike Bleach where Ichigo actually travels to the Spirit World (aka Soul Society)

(Misfit and Shijou are also on one plane of existence, "Demon World" is literally on the same plane as "Human World", aka think of Demon World as Asia and Human World as America, they're not in the same continent, but still on the same planet)

Is she bipolar or something?

Went from all "I hate life." to "No! No! Save Me!" then back to "I wanted to die." Well obviously not.

Very weird anime to say the least because of how its remind me for a certain mixed show from before. And i also kinda sad to comment every single same line person already said before me, while entering the episode discussion. So if i can be honest this first episode was just a cringefest, i can't help but coming here for one sole reason aside of that; cute girls. At the end, even though its not the best out of the best among the similar show, i think i can handle all the cringefest and all the dejavu, then just straight ready my poor soul to admit i am watching this for waifu.

Voila! Silverlink granted me another gray-haired little chick which somehow already matured in one flip of episode. The end? Hope so. But then again, there's more waifu coming later so i need prepare for everything later. Lets see....

What's up with the boost in annoyance in the anime? It's quite different from how it played out in the manga. Hadn't I read the manga, which hooked me, I would've dropped this anime.
In manga, Ard asks his parents and the elf guy how to befriend someone. There was only one attempt with the kids. Unlike anime, the manga didn't feel the need to repeat the same annoyance over and over again. Also befriending the elf girl was rather quickly after saving her immediately from the wolf. No harassment, like it was in anime.

Hopefully they change course with it, than focusing on his awkward, annoying and harassment-like attempts on finding friends.

Well it's just episode 1.
First episode story is published in Dragon magazine:July 2018. Light novel Ireena easily accepts Ard as a friend so it almost skips character development. Well I wished they made the first episode the Light Novel way coz it described the magic system and Ard's family situation. Well next episode starts academy arc which I hope they add ard inner monologues.

I wonder if it will be one of those is so bad is funny. I will give it 3 episodes but is really bad. The premise is weak, the way that the MC acts is unrealistic, names are translated weird Irina to Ireena , AllHide (possible reference to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allerleirauh) Olhyde , the psichology of the people is wrong and it also inserts the bs of the self esteem movement into it. bringing modern ideas in a medieval settings is weird. Also preteen boys do not really like girls and red roses are the color of love, they should be white or yellow. There are so many things wrong to this anime but will give it a chance

Aside from the Ard basically reincarnating and just winding up being basically on path to becoming an incel from being so full of himself was hillarious the rest was just pretty boring and unspired feeling. Enough to see another episode .

Whoa 2 this an action fantasy anime right ?? So why is there so many unfunny pathetic jokes in the FIRST EP ??? I expect this to be another generic shitty fantasy anime but that jokes seems so unnecessary that it feels cringey.

But Ireena is cute though maybe I'll stick around for that

Another tensei + magic academy series to add to the ever growing list.

The visuals were pretty awful, especially considering this was the first episode. Derpy faces and awkward body positions.

Well if anything, I recall the series at least has some serviceable scenes.

I would say it's a pretty good start for this type of anime
giving the backstory before straight jumping into the school and stuff

The white haired girl looks cute and clingy
that marathon of mc trying to make her his friend when they were children was hilarious

GOSH all the worst aspects of the current trend of crap: Lazy as hell writing, crappy animation, MRA power fantasy, etc. The only thing I can say that it brings to the table that its kin might not have is a techno soundtrack, but given how bizarre the music has been overall this season, even that doesn't feel all that notable. I have seen this exact episode at least fifteen times over the last year, and I dread seeing it another twenty times over the next year.

Did those goblins tried to r@pe a loli? My goodness these writers nowadays are really going all out with their dark ideas. Well anyways this one looks like Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha but with a not very serious MC. And I really liked the female MC she's so cute and she might be the reason I'll stick with this anime.

basically Misfit at Demon Academy but with different characters. this just seems like another average isekai with an OP MC.
HiddenByDesign said:
Yo dawg, I heard you like demon lords, so we put an isekai in your isekai, so you can reincarnate while you reincarnate.
Yet you gave misfit a 9/10. One day you will eventually learn almost all isekai is generic trash.

SleepingAddict said:
Suprisingly good, i was expecting a plot that was kinda boring and over used but this anime seems to be.... uniqe- Even though its an isekai i think im going to enjoy this anime

Definetly Finishing this series

Khunime said:
What a great start. Kinda interested more in this isekai than any of the other seasonal shows. Even though its your typical op and smart main character, it is still very exciting.

I hope I aint the only one who thinks this is a really really good anime and underrated as hell.
Sure it might have a basic isekai plot and a basic overpowered character but I think its slightly better than 'basic'

That being said I think I'm really gonna enjoy this one! Also Ireena IS SO CUTE and even years later <3

Out of everything I've watched so far this season (about 14 shows), this is one of the weaker ones. It was average at best. Gave it a 3 in the poll.

Ever since "start out with rape" was popularized by "Shield Hero", 80% of Isekai afterwards has used this as their opening...

I usually skip series if they goes through with it. (actual rape scene etc etc)

We're lucky the Goblins in this series didn't actually get to commit the act and was easily defeated by the MC.

The MC is too much of an airhead despite being a demon lord. It was so cringe to watch him being so desperate for something so simple. Really bad start, hope it gets any better.
