| Well, this is Veltol's life now, for being in part of this city. The betrayal stuff aside, I find it hard to take his and Machina relationship at the moment. Machina definitely cares about her but she's kinda protrayed as airheaded. Pacing feels strange in this anime so far. |
 |
| Well, he is pretty enough to make it as a streamer, and he has some charisma. |

| JC staff handling 10 shows this season and doing them all well is legitimately insane “So can you explain the 500 year gap in your employment history” 😂 Respect for Veltol trying to take a load off Machina and help out with the bills, but he’s both overqualified and under qualified in this world. I think it’s going to take him thinking out the box to land a job now. Content creation seems like the perfect avenue for him since he’s got so many cool stories from the old world. Also explains why they teased so many vtuber scenes last week! Was nice to get a little of Machina backstory and see why she came to idolise Veltol so much. She’s been thru so much these last 500 years and I’m glad she’s finally being rewarded a little for that. She and Takahashi meeting in an online otome doujin circle is too funny. I love Takahashi already can’t wait to see more of her. Really enjoying this one so far, it’s like a better hatamaou for me. |

| "Those mortals aren't worthy of seeing your royal body sir".... LMAO. Poor Veltol this episode. Dude had no luck with finding a job first off, and now of all things he's becoming a streamer... unless he's gonna get hella donations, good luck dude. Who am I kidding, his voice is sexy asf, that'll most definitely bring in the racks. |
 |
| ?????????????????????? From demon lord to a streamer helll nahhh but still machina is so hot SMASHH |
| sup dumbo |
| Emilia and Machina <3 Two white-haired waifus for me this season xD Based on Opening and LN source, I think we will have 2 vol LN adapted for 12 ep  |
  |
| lmfao that ending was great. |
 |
| Seiyuu? Hilarious Veltol and his new style!!! kekeke |

| @amf85 My thoughts exactly! I was sceptical after watching the first episode, but now I'm all in! I think it's Veltol's character and his chemistry with his "vassals" that sold me on this show. |
| Cannot lie, this anime has definitely pulled me in with not only the setting of a cyberpunk world, but also the highly expressive characters and amazing sound designs. I was interested in what Veltol would do with his life in 2099, but STREAMING? I could have never guessed that!?!. This is looking to be my unforeseen anime of the season if it keeps going at this rate. |

Apratim said: Really loved the duo between her and Veltol. Let's see how it develops later on Going to have repopulate the demon immortals somehow. |
| Lord Cruelty V "But my Dreams they're not as empty, as my conscience seems to be" |
| The cyberpunk setting is kind of interesting, with the AR interface, clothes shopping booths and the "retro" bar with old TVs and cameras hanging on the walls. But I'm going to need a lot more. A shame that they still just eat rice with salmon and miso soup. Definitely not a full-on comedy like Hataraku Maou-sama, but appreciate the light-hearted touches, like the Demon Lord sleeping in his full glow-y armor and loudly declaring his job search status in public. But I hope they don't drag the streamer stuff out too much, can't see it being very funny for long. |

No documents? No skills? Craving fame?
There's only one answer.
There's only one answer.
| @Dreadogastus_F Well 2 actually, but Machina said "Those mortals aren't worthy of seeing your royal body, sir" that rules out OnlyFans. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Lmao the at the bit at the end. She's basically saying he's useless but has a unique personality and is hot, so streamer is the way to go. Also more Towa-sama. |
| Oh Lord, now Veltol is going to attempt to become a streamer. I guess that's the only thing he can do since his skills as a Demon Lord are pretty much out of date and V-Tubers still exist. Seeing Veltol apply for a job reminded me of how Ichiban Kasuga was trying to apply for a job by going to the Hello Work job agency in Like A Dragon/Yakuza 7. Let's see if being a streamer allow Veltol to level up in cyberpunk world. |
 |
| This is a lot more chill, cute and wholesome than expected. This episode was basically like a nice slice of life. Time for Veltol's streamer arc xD |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Finally something different from the typical demon lord shows, so far so good. |
 |
| Veltol having to become a livestreamer for money? Amazing. |
 |
Lol, now we’re going to have a Demon Lord vtuber — ahem or at least that’s what I thought, but turns out it’s a Deamon Lord livestreamer, which is still awesome! So exciting! 😎 By the way, I was convinced I’d seen this vtuber before — and yes!! It’s Towa Ch. 常闇トワ from Hololive! 😱  |

| I think I'm going to drop this one here. I was interested in it when I read the summary but I don't really care for this show. Hope everyone else enjoys though |
 |
| That Barista's a real one. |
 |
| I'm enjoying this one for being quite different. It's like a what if Ainz went into a deep sleep for 500 yrs and woke up to see Albedo waiting for him to tell him that Demiurge revolted and replaced him as ruler of the world. |

| They really said the explain the gap in your resume line lol... |
| bruh |
| Bro, I seriously did not expect this episode to go in that direction! lmao |
 |
| I like cheering for Machina, she is very grateful to Veltol and I like how she is trying to help him out as much as possible during these times. I can see a lot of fun times coming with Takahashi in the picture now. |

| So when Veltol rubbed his fingers on the girls' Familia device on their neck it appears to stimulate (or arouse?) them and it might be considered indecent (at least that's how it appeared to me), regardless the girls didn't seem to mind lol. This show isn't going the way I thought it would as I thought it would be more serious but I still don't mind it having silly parts here and there. |
| OMG he became a twitch streamer.....OMG. *slow clap* bonus points to this show. |
 |
I realized that this series has plenty of references to some popular titles, especially within the same theme. It's as clear as day that Cyberpunk 2077/Edgerunners has had a big influence on it. It even references the Brain Drive from Scarlet Nexus, but in a somewhat ripped-off way (watch the opening) |

| Haha, this really is a modern Hataraku Maou. Of course you can't make a living flipping burgers or even expect to get a job in fast food without a degree anymore. You gotta be an influencer! It had me worried it'd go the OP isekai-ish route I feared when he saw the hacker's implant was different, but the ending totally redeemed it. |
| Legendary demon lord streamer about to become an icon. |

| this show is really interesting !! machina is the best waifu |
