Anime Review

Storyline

Season 1
What irony! Yuri Shibuya is your typical baseball-loving high school student, who is trying to save a classmate from bullies, somehow finds himself flushed down the toilet. One way or another, the toilet bowl is a doorway to a medieval world, where humans and demons coexist on the brink of war.

Thanks to his black eyes, black hair, and black school uniform, Yuri is mistaken for the demons' long-awaited 27th Demon King! Now, this mild-mannered, righteous schoolboy is expected to lead the demon kingdom in a war to crush the humans.

Can the gentle and honest Yuri really hope to lead a kingdom that's used to settling differences with violence? God save this human Demon King if that is even possible. This is a world where tables are constantly turned, where faith and loyalty exist even among demons, and where boundaries are constantly fluid.




Season 2
The long-anticipated return of the series will have Yuri finally finding his buddy, Conrad, who went missing. But everyone is in for a rude shock when they find Conrad in the human kingdom of Big Cimaron.

Young demon king, Yuri, and his team have just located "Hell's Fire on Frozen Tundra", one of the four Forbidden Boxes that they need to fight an evil being who is out to destroy the universe. Just as they are about to grab the box, they are set upon and captured by Big Cimaron's army - led by none other than Conrad himself!

Yuri is shocked and hurt by Conrad's betrayal, and worse, the greedy King Belar of Big Cimaron orders Conrad to execute Yuri; thinking that with Yuri gone, there will be little else to stop him from conquering the Demon Kingdom and rule the world.

How will Yuri - a regular school teen who was sucked into a demon world and unwittingly became their king ¡V defeat the dark powers of evil King Belar, especially when his best friend and army commander Conrad is going full force against him? Check it out!


My End Verdict:
This anime comes packed with outrageously quirky humour. This hilarious bishounen comedy promises to delight viewers and leave them in stitches.
