Alright, guys!!! This is another anime to review in this fantastic season of mediocracy!


Maougun Saikyou no Majutsushi wa Ningen data.

Humans and demons have been battling it out forever... The main character is an OP spell caster in the Demon army. Who happens to be a HUMAN!!! PLOT TWIST!!!!
He was raised and trained by a demon mage who made him strong and smart! However, only a select few can know that he is a human, so he has an elite disguise... a skull mask.
The main gimmick for this anime is that the MC is trying not to kill anyone in the war but ...

An unfortunately generic anime that has its music wasted on it.

Every season we get dime a dozen of anime like this. Either an Isekai or a Fantasy (or both) with the concept of "but X". This time, it's a generic copy and paste BUT the demon general is actually a human.
Unfortunately, it changes nothing. The MC is generically OP, but is also the super nice guy and savior with no extra features or qualities.

On the side, we have our own share of cute or hot girls who are all around the MC but are equally uninteresting.

The CGI in this anime (for monsters, effects, spells, etc.) ...

The concept of a human living among demons, seeking to bridge the gap between two warring species, offers a wealth of narrative possibilities. However, the anime falls short in execution, plagued by various issues that prevent it from reaching its on-paper potential.

The series opens with the Demon King's army engaged in relentless battles against humans. Ike, the leader of the Undying Brigade and grandson of the great magician Romberg, is revered for his unparalleled magical prowess. Yet, his human identity remains a closely guarded secret, as its revelation could spell disaster. This central conflict could have set the stage for a compelling story of espionage ...

The premise given by the title seems unique--a human not only working alongside demons but commanding their respect--but it nosedives straight into a subpar generic plot.

It's impressive that the anime with the most unique title/premise turned out to be the most generic out of a lineup of fantasy and isekai anime with far more generic titles. Granted, I'm only 4 episodes in, but a lot of the promises that were set up in this anime's story have been broken. Of those promises: the MC who is the human in the demon lord army and who is designated the "strongest" is not shown to be the ...

This show is another generic fantasy with nothing more than that. Humans and demons fight against each other, but why? The show doesn’t bother to explain. In fact, basically everything that happens in this show has no reason to happen. We follow the MC who is once again a nice guy who can never be mean to anybody ever. Definitely a solid choice for a guy who’s supposed to be commanding a demon army. As events unfold around him, you, the viewer, have no reason to care about anything because nothing has any weight and zero world building is established.

On top of being a failure ...

This show has an interesting setting with interesting characters and even interesting background stories.
Mc was raised by the greatest magician of the demon lords army, so he is basically wise mans son… except he is a human amongst demons.
Even though Mc-kun is human, he has demon friends who know his secret.

Mc-kun isnt sure of what he is, human raised by demons. Should he be what he was born as or what he was raised as? Seems like it would be hard to figure out while in a war against the humans.

Mc-kun is apparently supposed to be cool and awesome but getting ...

It's fine. Everything is fine. Nothing is great. Nothing is particularly bad. It's... fine.

That is simultaneously the best and worst thing I can say about this anime: it's fine. The show manages to do everything that it sets out to do, which is basically to "not completely suck" and it manages to do that. However, when not being terrible is the height of your ambition, it's also the best you can hope to accomplish. So this show... doesn't suck; which is not praise. It is forgettable mediocrity: something to pass some time and then forget everything about it in less time than it takes you ...

The writers for the original season of Power Rangers (1993) called and they want their dialogue back. Action scenes are few and far between, bland and dear goddess how can they talk so much during a battle? Like how is that even possible?

In addition to lackluster dialogue and action scenes the costume design is also... not fit for a high definition screen. They lack so much detail that you might as well be watching this on VHS. Of all the components of this show perhaps the most heroic efforts to save it are in the music, which ...

A priori this series had a good idea of plot : an human commander of a demon army try his best to fulfill his duty without killing his human's brothers, and has to balance between his ideal of peace and the inherent violent nature of demons.
This series had the potential to highlight a smart and powerful MC who have to deal with his ethics, his feelings toward the sacrifices that he has to make ; on one hand ensure victory without killing which is difficult and not guaranteed, on the other hand ensure victory without raising suspicion. The task is far from easy and I ...

For some reason I didn't have an emotional or physical reaction to this show, even though it's worse than many others which produced such results. Without wanting to sound like I am making a claim that quality of acting, animation and everything else that goes in creative process is actually good here, it's not. Rest assured this is the result of scraping sludge from the bottom of the barrel where all the cliches that no one wants anymore are kept.

This show simply failed to keep my attention. It wasn't the visuals or the acting. Not even the story that repelled me. Just wasn't entertaining. With ...
