    Maoyuu Maou Yuusha



    Summary: The story is set in a world embroiled by war between Humans and Demons. The Humans' greatest warrior known as the Hero invades the castle of the Demon King, leader of the Demons who is actually a woman, as he is determined to vanquish her. However, instead of fighting back, the Demon King proposes an alliance with the Hero. She explains how a sudden end to the war can bring further chaos to the world as the Humans once united to stand against their common enemies would eventually begin fighting among themselves, with similar issues already occurring at the Demon Realm. Convinced by her words, the Hero joins forces with the Demon King and together they execute a plan to bring prosperity and a lasting peace to both Humans and Demons alike.

    Yup. Not sure what to expect having never read the manga, but it's watchable and certainly entertaining at times. Kinda like Spice and Wolf but without the...soul?

    Needed more than the 12 episodes it's getting :/ pacing feels rushed as a result.

    I keep hearing how awesome the "plot" is in that show but I'm gonna wait until this season is over before watching it.

    Wow, the manga is nowhere near as ecchi as the anime makes it seem. The first episode alone has more boob references then the entire manga.

    Sometimes it's all about what you wanna see...

    Anyway, I'll probably check out the manga after this finishes since I like the overall setting and characters and...economics.

    This is my favorite anime for the season :3 It is totally milking Spice and Wolf with the same directors, animation style, music, etc.

    Don't forget voice actors.

    I really hope this gets a second season. To me it felt like it ended right before we start seeing the major effects of what the Demon King started. While I know that's not the case with the war between the Southern Triad and the Central Nations and all the others things that have been happening, it just feels like we aren't getting to see the full pay off for all of her work.

    Yeah, it honestly felt like it was only really starting to be honest. Hoping for an S2 too.

    The gifs and synopsis alone were enough to make want to watch this... looks like the Ikki Tousen and Ben-to re-watches are on the back burner for now!
