Just out of curiosity, the design of the web browser Lucifer using on the PC seemed old fashioned something like IE6.0 or Netscape. I'm sure Maou bought one of the cheapest used PC that could hardly access to the Internet. It's reasonable :-)

Just checked this Anime "Critic" site called seventhstyle who are criticising this anime and bashing it for not trying to be something that it's not. I guess that speaks legions of how good "critics" they are.

Why do they add filler in this awesome show if it'll only have 13 episodes? And they have lots of source material too. Not a bad episode though but the episodes before were way better.

Wow really. That guy is sure dumb. This show's advantage is how it twists dimension travel cliche, chun2byou cliche, rom-com cliche and pretty much every cliche related to Maoh-Hero cliche in Japan light novel. If someone say it is 'not trying to be what it isn't, hell that's stupid.

Want more NEET action from Lucifer.

Oh wow the ED video was awesome.

Episode was really funny despite being what would normally be considered a generic filler.

Chi-chan's face when she was hiding next to Maou was lols.

My guess is it is to keep the pace so that the anime ends right at the end of volume 2 because after that it would hard to find a point to end the series without rushing or skipping a lot of things. This is what Series Composition needs to take care of.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

The second half of the episode was interesting, but, nothing really important happened... Just the new character at the end...

So in the end Lucifer ended up staying at Maou's apartment and pretty much spends his time on the internet; a typical hikikomori. xD Emilia cutting up the anatomical doll was hilarious! I just like how Maou and Alsiel mocks her and refuses to use magic to repair it.

Lmao so in the end Lucifer just wanted them to pick up this PASTA - PS Vita's Successor? ROFL! It's even funnier since the VA of Keima from The World God Only Knows voices Lucifer. The picture of the landlord lady must have been traumatizing LOL! Oh hey, a new girl joins the crew. Man, I love this show.

Depends on your expectations I suppose.
If you're looking for more comedy, it stays strong for the next 5 volumes.
However, by Vol.8 we are beginning to see more emphasis on serious plots, so those prefer pure comedy may feel deterred by it.
I dont know about others but im 100% ok with this, i love dramedy and i thought the serious bits in ep 4 and 5 were well done, its not like comedy completely disappears right?

Wow so even Lucifer's living with them now! I KNEW his voice sounded familiar ... Akihisa! :P Of course he'd be the type to be all techy and stuff ... haha :P
Everyone got fooled by him ... sent to Chiho's school (LOVE THE SCHOOL UNIFORM BTW XD) to check out a mysterious classroom ... which is where Lucifer and Olba landed! O_O So he just wanted them to get his PSP back ... wow they were fooled XD Although it might become important later on if a gate DOES open there ... after all, he mentioned it would be easier since one was opened there already.
Now who's this new girl?! Seems like the girl reporting to people on Ente, maybe ...?! :O
The new ED animation is awesome! Chiho's so cute :3

The OP scene was thrilling and funny. Oh he has already lived with them. "Who is Urushihara?" lol Poor Maou, it seems he finally saw the pic. A new character showed up in the end.

The first half retained the same vibe as previous episodes. The second half was an interesting development, which felt a bit different from previous eps. I liked the new ED song and art.



I'd imagine it either hasn't occurred to them or they find it to be in bad taste, I think they're still researching in order to find a way back which won't cause any problems for other people. They're nice like that now.
It was a funny episode, it looks as if we're in the comfortable part of the show.

Not a bad episode in itself, but there's something that really bugs me:

What happened to all the pain and suffering caused back on Ente Isla by the demons? Why did everyone, especially Emilia, conveniently forget about it?

The previous episode made it seem like all the atrocities were actually Lucifer's doing - which did stretch my suspension of disbelief a bit, but I accepted it. Now everyone is okay with Lucifer just being part of the gang like nothing happened. Okay, Maou forgave him for his disobedience, but what about Emilia?

I wouldn't be bothered by this had they not INSISTED on these plot points - why not just make it clearer, from the beginning, that the demons were just trying to conquer the humans in a more "civilized" matter, rather than butcher them?

Oh God! Not much happened but the humor was top as ever. I almost fell of the bed laughing when Ashiya said "let use this" and pull out the land lady photo.
The start with Maou going all evil on there barbeque, lol. and the "he recently learned about this thing called net-shopping". I just laugh how they feel they make big discoveries from all the common stuff for most.
Also Lucifer now is a NEET hikikomuri otaku gamer. There goes out of the window all the conquer two worlds plans, lol.

I'm not too big on comedy anime, but this show is really changing my opinion on them. I think the best scene was when maou saw the bottom half of the picture and changed the subject, that was pretty hilarious.

In episode 5 didn't she say something about how her powers don't leave even when on Earth? "I'm the same Hero" or something?

IDK, maybe I mistook that to mean something it didn't though.

Agreed,

The episode was enjoyable. I think that we'll get some action next week, because of the report that was made to the church after the opening.

Looks like one more member of the Ente Isla cast has come to stay and play (work?) on Earth. It's the Inquisition girl who was reporting to her superiors about the status of the renegade archbishop, the missing Hero and the exiled Demon Lord. "Hanzou Urushihara" has also come to stay with the demon duo in their cramped apartment and further strain their weak finances. Not as funny as past episodes, but still pretty entertaining.

Nice ED visuals.

It was a good episode despite being uneventful. That picture with the landlord must've been terrifying if it made all three demons uncomfortable like that. I wonder what role this new girl will play as. Whether this series becomes a rom-com or a harem, I'll probably like it anyway at this point.

Good episode!!!

Maou seems to be having more and more people staying at his 'stronghold' with Lucifer temporarily living there for the time being. The scene with the Landlady in a bikini is certainly proven to be lethal to all demons as even the mighty Maou was knocked out towards the end of the episode. I liked the scene in the school building where they were all tricked in getting the handheld game console back to Lucifer. Seems like a mysterious person is behind the scenes in trying to get rid of Emi and her team so I wonder what is going to happen as the person appeared briefly in the school building.

Looking forward to the new character in the next episode!!

5/5
