Review of Demon King Daimao

Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou starts off as a pretty solid and fun Demon Lord, magical high-school anime. Likeable characters, story you could follow - the works. But halfway through, something just snaps and the entire show goes off the rails so incredibly hard that I can't believe someone green lighted this. The second half of the show I kept checking if I had accidentally put on the wrong episode because I felt that I had missed several episodes worth of story and character development. It felt like the first half every episode follows like a chapter of manga, while the second half felt like each episode covers50 chapters.

But you know what? I kinda liked it. It was so sped up, so ridiculous, that it was like a train full of clowns going off the rails and speeding to their doom while laughing about it.

I'm slightly sad that it went out like that when the show started off so strong, but that's life. Have to enjoy what you've got.
