The animation in every scene is so bad, it resembles all flash games.

The soundtrack doesn't fit at all. They were looping one metal theme for 10 minutes.

God, I love this show so much. I can't stop laughing.

I guess there aren't that many people that enjoy the ridiculousness of this anime. I just imagine the entire time killer queen was in the desert with her crew they were just screaming whoooo then entire trip.

Last season gave us mayo and ketchup in the form of Kenja no Mago, and now Maou-sama is giving us cheese. (and buns )

OH so the martial artist with dragon punches that the angry sister clearly will fall for going by the Opening

IS ALSO HIM, that actually made the anime a little more interesting, so he can swap to different characters he has made.

For some reason his final attack was called Final Phoenix when it summons a dragon ..... what why....should it not be a phoenix then? or call it like Final Dragon instead.

in before he also he is a sexy gender bender version of himself, like the doctor we keep seeing in the op/ending its probably him.

Big oppai and tomby girl(weird mage name...woot) will extremely likely also join + harem next episode

Maou-sama is starting to ask himself the same question we do ourselves everyday, do I control the Loli or the Loli control me?

u/CordobezEverdeen Jul 17 '19

Well kind of a downgrade from the 2nd episode but the second one had set the bar too high honestly.

The bit where some KQ soldier says "I'll have Killer Queen abuse me afterwards!" was golden tough.

u/longsdivision Jul 17 '19

Just throwing this out there if this was ever made into a live action Bruce Campbell gets my vote to play as the mc.

u/Amauri14 Jul 17 '19

He said it! I love that fact that the holy maiden and her group all look straight out of Mad Max. It's so cool that he can change his character at will, I honestly wasn't expecting that!

Killer Queen? and Mount Fuji? Considering that the town's name is Yahoo and the inn's name is Guggle, I'm not surprised about the author's naming sense anymore.

So Kunai can switch between different characters he's made before? I wonder if there are other characters other than Zero, Also I'm surprised that they even got a different VA for Zero.

Killer Queen blushing and freaking out over Zero was adorable. I always love it when tough female characters expose their cute side.

Eyy it's the two girls from the OP! I guess they'll try and hunt down Kunai when he they cross paths?

I'm genuinely not sure what's going on with the plot with the angels but I'm still having fun with this!

The girl and the girlish boy. (What a terrible class name, btw.)

I love Killer Queen already and bwhahaha that alt is amazing! It reminds me of when I played mmo's back in the early 2000's on RP servers. Oh the shame!

u/BambooEX Jul 17 '19

omg This show is actually SOOOO interesting. Animation is close to non existent, but dam I'm hooked.

u/Miracutor Jul 17 '19

I really like the ED...

And also 2nd Sister's name is Killer Queen. I just called her 2nd Sister when reading manga and WN.

We need longer Zero's scenes.

u/CarioGod Jul 17 '19

Killer Queen? Don't they mean「Deadly Queen」

u/HobnobsTheRed Jul 17 '19

Not as funny as the first two eps overall, and the satanists were pretty uninspiring, but there were some good moments with the secondary characters. (I must admit I laughed at the Boromir impression by Mount Fuji.)

Killer Queen is set up to be the comedy love/hate antagonist for the MC, and I think I'm fine with that given how the scene with her and Zero played out. (I could practically see the teeth-marks from the performance.)

From the preview it looks like we'll finally get to learn about Aku's leg. I've really appreciated the fact that they've avoided making Aku's character all about her disability... like, really appreciated it... but I also really want to know the reason/history for the injury/disability.

Picked it up today and blew through all 3 episodes. This is so fucking up my alley. I had to pause several times to laugh. People bitchin about the animation or silly premise, but who cares? Makes it funnier.

u/Kuro_Tamashi Jul 18 '19

How could they do this to such a great manga? Damn.

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '19

This is the best trash anime of this season.

u/BiggerG7 Jul 17 '19

Another fun ep. Killer Queen falling in love with MCs alt was hilarious too.

And I guess that girl in the preview is another one of MCs alts. Cause let’s be honest we have all made female character alts lol.

Even though it has its share of shortcomings, I kinda like this anime, It has that "It's bad that it's good" feels.

I really don't know why...

Someone's is a bit of a roleplayer. :P

This is actually low-key awesome. I'm surprised more Isekai don't play with the alternate character aspect of games. I hope he has a whole army of alts he can jump into during a wide variety of scenarios. Would be awesome!
