6/24/2023 0 Comments The Devils by Joe AbercrombieI enjoyed the characters, dominantly the chemistry between Maou and Ashiya simply the because of Ashiya’s profusely worshiping and defending him despite who is around at the time. I mean the bit where Emi deflects Lucifer’s demon blast only for it ricochet into Maou’s face was priceless. This eventually leads to the funny bits to being either the mixed romance moments, over-reactions to new discoveries and a bit of slap-stick to which the latter I found much more appealing. Unfortunately, like most fish out of water stories, the comedy becomes less and less effective the more accustomed the characters become to their new environments. It’s funny as hell when it needs to be, cool when it needs to be and feel-good when it needs to be. Seriously it starts off all demonic fantasy and then after a few epic action sequences it completely changes into a slice of life, fish out of water comedy where the devil has to live in modern day Japan by working at a MgRonalds (completely different to a McDonalds BTW) … and it really works. This anime has the most misleading beginning to a first episode I have ever watched.
