Looks like Lucifer wants to overthrow Satan/Maou (maybe going along with Christian mythology about how Lucifer wanted to overthrow God).

Great episode, but I am a little irritated at how much of a "nice guy" Maou is. He's the freaking DARK OVERLORD, would spending a few months in the human world change him so much?

Nice guy Satan.

It was explained a bit better in the Manga (this very same ep): Maou was very busy at time and can't control all of his demons. Then there is the natural hatred between humans and demons, Maou also didn't understand the concept of human because he has never been in their positions like now. Will probably explained more later I guess.

I was about to ask the same thing, so thanks for putting that into perspective.


Any who, good episode I guess. I don't understand how his great general Lucifer can use so much of his power easily, but the demon lord himself said he had such little remaining himself.. I do look forward to seeing how all this plays out though..

So Emi is actually a Nephilim........sweet she's awesome !
Damn i think Emi might have killed Maou if Chiho and Aisha didn't show up. Anway 5/5 out of this ep. Liking Emi more and more since Chiho instantly won me over. It's getting harder to choose now but im get a feeling we dont have to.

And with that, the anime has officially gone past the manga!

My heart broke when Chi-chan started to cry :C Such an innocent and pure love

The introduction of Lucifer and Emilia's friends really hyped me up for the next episode!

Anime seems a bit...rushed...Maou didn't even properly explain why he did what he did to Emilia's father, the whole dialog of which they cut out (And the dialog I was looking forward to in this episode)

I knew someone who named Lucifer won't be a minor character. I wonder how he managed to somewhat retain his power in the human world.

Maou doesn't seems to evil, he just doesn't understand human to me.

Lucifer in the otherhand may be the true evil.

Awesome episode. With this, if there was any doubt, Emilia has become the best girl of the season. Well there are Mikasa and Tohka, but Emilia has something attractive about her. Or is it me who has a thing for tsundere?

It was nice to see Emilia's past and now we know why she despise Maou so much. This anime just keeps getting better and better. Not a second of it I didn't enjoy so far.

Felt bad for poor Chiho. She has fallen head over heels in love with Maou. Unfortunately she is no match for Emilia. :|

5/5 for four episodes in a row for me!

Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

I don't know. He said in ep 3 he came to this world to eliminate both Maou and Yuusha in the name of Ente Isla's will. Although Yuusha didn't believe him, it didn't seem he was lying then. I wonder if it means he made a deal with church/humans of the other world.

Alsiel is such an amusing character! I must say that his staunch support for Maou is commendable, giving us many hilarious moments. We finally get some background on Emi's past, showing that Emi isn't exactly Tsundere since she holds an actual grudge against Maou.

Was surprised to see that the landlord lady has some connection with Maou's world. The introduction of Lucifer makes me think that Maou is probably a good guy after all, provided that it's quite difficult to reconcile his supposed cruelty and his present frivolous attitude.

Somehow maou's landlord reminds me of the "Witch of the Waste" from Howl's Moving Castle.


FInally, the villain shows his ugly face.... or rather, his emo face (he does look like it, right?)

And reinforcements from ente isla is on it's way, too. Wonder what will happen now.

And that angry Chiho from the preview is adorable ^^

XD and like you, I also love his over reacting tendencies when it comes to Maou

from comedy - drama - comedy - drama
there aren't that a lot of shows that can pull that off and still manage to make it effective :D

5000/5 for me and I'm glad to know that this epic one isn't just comedy-driven but actually have some serious plot :D
easily on my top 3 this season

Holy shit, that scene when Emilia was crying out her feelings towards Maou was really emotional. Emilia was such a pure and cute girl when she was young but was taken away by the priests since she was half angel. Emilia lost her father and village and swore that she'd kill the Demon Lord. All Maou could say was 'sorry'. Then Chiho comes in lmao. Lucifer appearing at the end was so awesome. Probably the best episode so far in my opinion. Fucking love this show, handles comedy and drama so well.

i think the thing about Lucifer is that he feeds off of Negative Emotions in order to regain his lost magical power, since he said "Look at that. Now you'll be a decent meal." "but i really appreciate that you fell into despair about them so easily." those lines should be a huge hint at how he regains his magical powers and why he was targeting Chiho. Also when the Landlady says, "you should know best of all what enormous power thoughts and desires hold" hints even more towards it XD.
