A decade later the demon lord is resurrected (in chibi form) and is off to find his great hero... who is now a bum has-been living in filth. Refusing to give up on him the demon lord settles in to make a hero out of him once again!
You know, I think someone had a lot of love for the source material. While the animation budget did seem tight in spots a lot of care and attention was given to the artwork. Mostly though this was just a very cute and sweet show.
Someone who was past his prime, who got stepped on by life, and yet.
From the promo I worried about the loli aspect of the demon lord but thankfully it wasn't that.
The characters sweet, the plot fluid and the jokes land. I might have laughed a little too hard at a recurring "The Ring" joke to be honest.
I think if the show had a flaw it would be taking the setting from medieval times to modern japan in just the span of a decade. Seems a bit fast but they were clearly trying to tell the story of someone past his prime just needing a little to try again.
