It was an okay start. It feels kind of generic, but I'll see where it goes.

Si bien es el primer episodio, siendo que a diferencia de muchos otros que he visto, este es uno de los pocos que no logra engancharme a lo que es la historia, al estar "investigando" un poco acerca del anime, me ilusioné bastante, pero este inicio del anime me dejó con muy bajas expectativas hacia lo que queda de episodios.

A little disappointing, I had higher expectations based on the premise and cast. Ike (not a very intimidating name for a demon but whatever) didn't really do anything all that impressive, more the episode just told me how bad ass and brilliant he was. All I saw him do was get his secret exposed by a slave girl. Could've at least waited an episode not to make him look like a total clown.

Going to hold out hope it improves because it was just average but I'll watch for Jun Fukuyama and Shizuka Itou.

Not much to watch this season. This one was ok so far. Better than last season's fantasy offerings so far.

Decent start to this and it seems to be a mix of fantasy, adventure, and some comedy with the way some things went such as Ike talking about how no one can enter his area with his magic barrier only to be discovered by a slave girl.

Regarding the demon king and Cefiro, it seems like the demon king, whom is a girl, knows Ike is just wearing a mask so I wonder if what she would do if she found out he's a human, I mean since he's been loyal I would think she would let him be and Cefiro herself looks like a regular human female 🤷

Having him kill the servant girl A) would have been logical and B) would have established him as a more interesting character.

There is no way that girl can lie convincingly enough to not expose his secret and it's not like he's opposed to killing humans, his army was killing plenty. Instead he lets her live and looks like a spineless goofball because only nameless background humans are allowed to die, not desperate maids.

Do they explain why he hides his face when at the same time the witch has hers totally open and she looks like a normal human?
@Tsukikage_Riku Seems nobody knows.
I had the same feeling, is weird how she looks very "human" and has no problems, but he for some reason looks... human?

Futubasha needs to stop censoring their bloody products. they have reduced the breast sizes of multiple female characters. I dread how Futubasha is going to bastardize Demon Lord Retry Season 2.

my god, I know I shouldn't talk about other people's work like that, but they could have polished this anime before releasing it, delay it for another season and improve it, the music is bad, the 3D is ugly, the 2D is more or less, I don't know if I'll keep seeing it

Pretty bland and generic.
The whole idea of a human being part of the demon army was done alot before already and better.
I'll give it a few more episodes before I most likely drop it.

Another strongest demon is a Human, LOL.

Only difference this time is... the MC isn't a reincarnate from same world, but actually an Isekai this time.

(and actual demon stuff and not "goody-two-shoe Iruma cute demon world")

(tho... feels like this MC is striving to become a "goody-two-shoe" with his "ideals)

.

Also... his secret got found out by a airheaded maid... should do things to keep her quiet (evil thoughts activated, hehehe)

But he just left the maid inside a barriered room... with... dango? mochi? LOL

BTW... did MC said his secret was never revealed in 20 years?... so why does the "commander" know he's a human? doesn't this mean he was already revealed a LONG time ago?...

(also... she's 13... WHAT? she looked like 16+... HUH?) (I was going to say she was cute and funny, but now that's turned into a different meaning, LOL)

.

And again... the Demon Lord is yet another Pink haired Maou, LOOOL (how many pink/red hair maou we got now?)

She's totally not going to end up as one of MC's harem, totally.

.

The opening is very good, but the scrit is very shallow. It introduces the fact that the protagonist is human but destroys all the weight of that in the firts episode? Strange.

Bit generic innnit
- This feels like overlord but not at esekai
- The art is kinda weird to look at. Don’t get me wrong it’s pretty good, I just can’t put my finger on it but it feels odd
- Maid girl is cute
- I like the demon lord of this show, I wanna know more about the ancient civilisation
- Opening and ending music are good

It's interesting... the protagonist has leadership qualities and demonstrates authority. I loved both the OP and the ED.

However, there's something that doesn't make much sense. Apparently, Ike's actions reveal that he's human, but being humble and merciful shouldn't necessarily be traits that show in him because those attitudes aren't inherently human. Let me explain: if he was raised by a demon, it shouldn't matter that he's human because he would inherit their destructive nature. Being 'good' isn't something that simply manifests in humans; it's more a result of upbringing. So, the only explanation would be that his grandfather raised him as if he were human. But why? Who knows. Anyway, I might be overthinking this.

A pretty good 1st episode.
I can tell this is going to be a fun anime.
I am looking forward to watching the 2nd episode.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.
