Maou 2099 - Episode 1:
If they keep this serious tone, i might have found another great show for this season. I thought this was going to be more comedy like other anime where a demon lord finds himself in the modern world, but this first episode felt like there's actually gonna be a real plot.
One thing I will always hate about Japanese authors and their "demon lords", however, is how once again we're supposed to empathize with the demon lord. Literally THE most evil being. At least that's what a lord of demons would be typically. In anime, however, it really only means that he's an opponent, a leader of an opposing faction and killing is the worst he'll do. When I think of demon lords, I think of the stuff that happens in, say, BERSERK. But modern anime-demon lords would never do truly evil stuff. And that sucks. Give me true evil when you call yourself "demon lord". Oh well. That's a general complaint I have for many anime featuring "demon lords".
Looking forward to episode 2.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
I'm with Mfauli on this one. I want my sexy girls in anime and games. However, I don't think so because I want the original intact or to see a more immersive world. I just like looking at it.
Peace.
Yeah...Raise wa Tanin ga Ii is really, really good.
Nice to have a male lead with actual blood on his hands (during the episodes) instead of just being misunderstood or getting into fights for a noble reason.
Yoshino is great in her own right too. She's funny, likeable, smart, and prefers to dress classy while going out. She gets herself into and out of messes quite nicely. No wonder he's falling for her.
