I haven't read the LN but I've been spoiled about the Ending. Okay so from what I've been hearing people were saying the ending was so bad that they don't even wanna watch season 2. After season 2 was announced Literally on every post I saw LN readers commenting not to watch this because of the Ending. But when I found out that the whole reason is
I can't believe so many people were mad at this and tried to stop other people from watching it.

People tend to overreact a lot, especially in romance related progression in anime. All the incels can't comprehend the mc can like someone other than their favorite waifu.

They’re overreacting, but tbf they have their reason to be angry after all of the development Maou have with Emi and NEARLY NONE with Chiho.
Like I could say that no one would mind if Maou ended up with Chiho if they have the same amount of developments as Maou and Emi like how no one would mind which girl ended up with Yuiga in We Never Learn because they have the same amount of development(yes I know some have a bit more or less but it’s still enough). But no that not the case here.

I think they are acting like that not because of just the ending but the whole development in the series from the spoilers i have seen, it seems that the development was between maou and emi but the ending implied harem which they hated bcz of all the development was supposed to maouxemi but they got maouxchi and it also seems it became more of drama after a few volumes so i think bcz of drama they are acting like this, but that is what i have gathered from all the spoilers personally i haven't read any of it but i still get why they are mad

Although I don't hate the ending, I mean, the side girl winning in the end isn't a reason to hate, as long as she's getting good development and screen time.
But maybe I know why readers are hating it.
If Hero and Maou are transferred to another world, where Hero's job is only to keep an eye on Maou, who is working as part timer, and the plot is like, the two are slowly getting closer, But in the end nothing happens. So why was the hero there all the time, after so many chapters, when Maou is finally had to be end up with another girl, what was the point of the MAIN GIRL (hero) this whole time.

That's all I can guess the reason for the hatred, but I could be wrong too.

The main reason is because Maou and Emi got a whole lot of development while Maou and Chiho have nearly none.
That reason don’t make that much sense to me because Emi come to this world to kill Maou, not keep an eye on him.

So, did she killed him? If not, it's the same thing, as if she didn't find any purpose or didn't obtained anything this whole time.
By keeping an eye, I mean how she's doing it rn, she hardly tries to kill him, but eavesdropping outside her apparment or keeping an eye everywhere he go, so that he doesn't do anything wrong.

Most of the people complaining here about the ending haven't actually even read the LN.

Lol, personally, I think the ending isn't so bad. I mean she deserves it even though I do wish Sado would end up with the hero...but being with the other girl is okay. I like both of them so it's fine

Do you hate chiho? yes, so do I, she's just a burden, big breasts, and just a supporting character. I'd be more supportive if Emilia became the Maou's girlfriend

You don't get it, do you?
It's more about How & Why than What!!



No?? Was it that hard even though you knew how the story would go?

With this logic of yours, many good Anime, Manga & LN would have been ended a lot earlier because some girl was already in love with MC from before.

Do you guys dissolve logic in WATER or the MILK before you gulp it down, digest it, and finally flush it?

This is the reason. I have read first 11 volume then dropped it after knowing the spoiler and I can say that


if you saying people hating it just overreacting that just your lack of understanding of reading a novel.
I'm not saying novel is better than anime since people had their own preference but I with utmost confidence can say that you will understand a character better by reading a novel compared to watching anime. you will understand them much more personally since you know what their thought and how they feel.

This is the reazon.

I don't know if you misunderstood me or if you are trying to say that to someone else by quoting me.

Because I also hate the LN ending. And I know pretty well that Chiho did not have that much devlopment as much as Emi did. And even if she did not had that much development, there could've been a better way to reach the conclusion it had in the LN.

But these people? The best they could do is say - "That she was always in love!"

That to which I responded that if we had gone by that logic, many great Anime would have ended early...

I'm responding as for how and why. as for more I write after that it was to respond people above but I forget to quote the message.

I found this on reddit Maybe this will explain why the entire fanbase hated the ending so much.
