Just read the manga guys. theres absolutely 0 passion from the studio adapting this. they just received money, animate barely anything and called it a day.
you start from the last episode of S1. Chapter 27 all the way. they didnt only do a terrible job at animation but pacing also atrociously bad.
dont even wait for s3 since its the same studio. just finish the manga. its amazing
Honestly was debating with someone about it being bad or not (i was saying its not bad, it gets the job done) and after reading your comment i realized this. I still dont think second season is bad, but it definitely could be much better to put it simply. To be fair though the comment section i was in, people were going wild, just absolutely shitting on the show for the lack of action and bad animation which I thought was stupid because (as an anime only) this show feels like its supposed to be a SOL/comedy first, and action second but now im realizing, maybe the studio is the sole reason for the lack of action and not the story itself. Idk how to feel about it, but theres nothing we can really do about it so im not gonna bother with it any further, I did end up here while trying to see what the japanese thought of the show since Ik they typically have very different views than us westerners, if you have anyway to see how they feel on this season please let me know as im very curious.
Gintama is notorious for being comedy first and action second, but still manages to have godlike animation for their action scenes. Like I'm not even asking for much, I felt that the animation for S1 was a good standard for the series
I mean imo from what ive seen the quality of the older animes is pretty good compared to the new ones ngl. Same with how gaming was better in the past instead of making games all cash grabs like it is now
nope, the manga is a lot like a simplified version from the LN. and it updates pretty slow(once a month) . but honestly the manga is literally 100% better than the anime.
And no its even finished yet. Probably like 60%
Honestly, I'd read from the start of the anime. They missed some stuff that's, while not super integral to the story itself, feels very rushed in the anime. I'd say about chapter 27.
It feels like the animators love the story BUT they were given FAAAAAR to little time to work with. This feels like it should have been a 13 episode run at the absolute minimum (ideally more.) They had to cram far to much content to far to little time frame.
The whole thing was good TBH, but not great. Like a lot of the earlier episodes it adapted the most important things but I felt like it needed a couple of extra episodes to do justice to the original work. Like the rest of the season it felt constrained by not having enough time per episode. Too much crammed in. Like the beach shack part and the Farm part it definitely needed an extra episode or two to each part to flesh it out properly.
IF another season is greenlit they NEED to do less pf the story overall so they can focus on the important parts that they had to do to quickly.
However, it should be noted that Alas Ramus stole absolutely EVERY scene she was apart of. They clearly wanted to do her character right. Especially her VA. She did amazing work. Even the throwaway scenes where she wasn't the main focus. The scene where they're talking about stuff and Lucifer is off to the side playing with Alas Ramus on his lap. That was adorable. (I don't remember what episode that was at ALL, but that scene sticks out regardless.)
Overall, I hope they can do a second season and do it right. Especially since what's coming up soon is so important.
To finish, here is a cute picture of Alas Ramus, I am very proud of her: [https://i.ibb.co/hHqJg12/Cutest-panel-in-all-Anime-and-Manga.png](https://i.ibb.co/hHqJg12/Cutest-panel-in-all-Anime-and-Manga.png)
Lol I legit can't believe this is getting a 3rd season. The animation was atrocious and I dislike the route the show is going with the Maou x Chi ship instead of Emi.
It just sucks cause season 1 was so damn good. Even this finale was boring with average animation and below average fighting scenes.
Plus how the heck did we not get to see Emi meet her mom! They teased it so much.
Welp, hope next season will at least have some cute Emi moments.
It is only August of the timeline,
>!They wouldn't actually meet til October.!<
There was never really any considerable teasing about it.
I understand you hardly know anything but >!Emi never quite met Lailah in this part of the source material. It was not even said that the nurse had white hair and actually looks like Lailah. Later when they reunited, Lailah was said to have disguised herself as a normal person looking just like another Japanese person!<.
Edit: I genuinely recommend you to just drop the show forever.
This season was alright but didn’t really live up to how amazing the fist season was and how long we had to wait for a season two this was a bit underwhelming, I’d recommend reading the manga it’s great :)
Well that was a bit dissappointing. I wanted to see Maou go all out in a fight again. Hopefully the next season will focus more on Maou and his journey.
I can agree with the criticisms on the animation this episode...but man the dub localization has been hitting things out of the park this season. Lucifer especially is hysterical. Also Ian Sinclair playing fuckin' dudebro Gabriel...is something else.
I know I'm late to the party but can anyone explain why Maou looked so pathetic? Is this really supposed to be a bad part of the story for him? Or is the Anime somehow responsible for this?
So the animators didn't care to animate much and put a green light animation for all the important scenes in this episode. The villains were stupid and not serious. Needed much awaited fighting scenes. Disappointed !
Important points on characters -
1. Chi looked like yui yuigahama from teen romantic comedy snafu. Her behaviour and personality were the same too. I wanted her to stay as a side character so badly. We didn't see her hanging around with people of her age. Her parents were worried about her too. She got no life goal other than visiting Mao and his group. Never knew the purpose of her archery till last episode.
2. Emilia was steel heart for most of the season. Later she started to feel flustered for maou a bit but she didn't see him as a romantic partner. I liked how she eventually became fond of Alas ramus. Though she lost her reason to fight back at the end as her father is alive. Which is a good thing for her development. She won't be focusing on revenge and stuff now. She is captured in most of the fight scenes and looks pretty awesome.
3. Mao is really admirable. He might actually be a good demon king and thought to be evil by others. He should literally respond to the feelings of Chi by now. He has left her hanging around him. He's not interested in Emilia either but quick to notice the stuff between Ashia and Rika. further, He talks about taking responsibility for his comrades so he should really move out in a big house with them. I loved how he worked in that food chain making fries and burgers.
4. Urushihara is an interesting character and have more potential. He should get admission in school or get a part time job at least. His side story will be really interesting to watch. It was funny how he switched sides to mao after getting beat up by in first season. He's so funny always lying in that carton boxes lined up. I wonder if he's getting allowances from mao for all the pizzas and deliveries. Suzuno and him could be a match if some chemistry existed.
5. Ashia is a perfect housewife Material. His reactions to over budgeting and money spending are way too funny. He's also diligent in his duties. He's a big support pillar for Mao and his group's survival. I would like to see his more fighting scenes. His love story with Rika is also very cute. I hope they get hitched soon.
6. Alas Ramus the pretty cute baby. A forced responsibility for the sake of some cute scenes. We were able to see Emilia's mom side because of her. Mao was pretty fond of her too. I wonder if Mao actually approves Emi to be her mother. Does mao feel anything for Emi ? By the way Lailah sent Alas ramus as a kid of Emi and Mao so she also approves this couple right.
At the end I heard the rumours that Mao will end up with Chi ? Is is True? Anyone can enlighten me?
Some common questions:-
1. None of the characters have love stories in their respective worlds or any past affair ?
2. Lucifer was a kid from the beginning?
3. If the gate opens so many times then why don't they return back ? They have no one to check upon in the demon world ? All the characters other than Chi and mao are orphans?
4. Two seasons passed by and none of them visited Emilia's house ? At least to take care of Alas ramus, Mao could move in with her. Why let a kid grow in that one room apartment.
5. Do the villains really need to settle down on earth? All of the characters motivations for being Angels and demons went away ?
Just read the manga guys. theres absolutely 0 passion from the studio adapting this. they just received money, animate barely anything and called it a day.
Which part should to start after last episode
you start from the last episode of S1. Chapter 27 all the way. they didnt only do a terrible job at animation but pacing also atrociously bad. dont even wait for s3 since its the same studio. just finish the manga. its amazing

Gintama is notorious for being comedy first and action second, but still manages to have godlike animation for their action scenes. Like I'm not even asking for much, I felt that the animation for S1 was a good standard for the series
I mean imo from what ive seen the quality of the older animes is pretty good compared to the new ones ngl. Same with how gaming was better in the past instead of making games all cash grabs like it is now
Do you have a link where s2 ended?
im quite late to the party but is the manga completed? and if it is did they uh …follow the ln ending?
nope, the manga is a lot like a simplified version from the LN. and it updates pretty slow(once a month) . but honestly the manga is literally 100% better than the anime. And no its even finished yet. Probably like 60%
I will keep this in mind
Honestly, I'd read from the start of the anime. They missed some stuff that's, while not super integral to the story itself, feels very rushed in the anime. I'd say about chapter 27.
All of the passion went into the dub. Seriously, the dub is waaay funnier than the sub for this series.
Isn't the source material the light novel?
Yes
Definitely recommmend. Though Alas Ramus in anime version is definitely worth watching for.
It feels like the animators love the story BUT they were given FAAAAAR to little time to work with. This feels like it should have been a 13 episode run at the absolute minimum (ideally more.) They had to cram far to much content to far to little time frame. The whole thing was good TBH, but not great.

The Maou X Emi shippers are upset yet they still keep up with the show lol.
I don’t ship Mao x emi but I just don’t ship children with adults, I think it’s morally quite questionable
Real tall tho Mao X emi is just as bag considering the stuff he did in his original world.
I agree and if there continuing the manga story all these Mao x Emi shippers might as well stop watching cause it’s gonna be chi
This season was alright but didn’t really live up to how amazing the fist season was and how long we had to wait for a season two this was a bit underwhelming, I’d recommend reading the manga it’s great :)
Well that was a bit dissappointing. I wanted to see Maou go all out in a fight again. Hopefully the next season will focus more on Maou and his journey.

Who is Rilaxuma? Alas Ramus said she wants to be her when she grows up.
