Review of Demon King Daimao
I really enjoyed the first 8-9 episodes. After that point it seemed to shift from school harem to end of the world without really a good transition. It was just that all of a sudden the director noticed that he had 2-3 episodes left and threw everything into it. If there was a better transition, I would have rated it higher. It just seemed to become a different story completely. I didn't mind the Deus ex machina ending. That doesn't bother me, maybe because I love Doctor Who. Who knows. Anyway, without giving away any plot points,I think that either adding another episode or two to give a good transition would have helped in understanding the story. It's almost like the director assumed that anyone who read the manga knows the lead up, so let's just get it over with. I think the Harry Potter movies did the sane thing here and there. Also, it was a bit weird how certain "friends" of the Demon King seemed to switch sides multiple times to either help him through or hinder his path. That seems to be the purview of the "bad guys" rather than his friends.
