The premise has been done hundreds of times, which is what makes it so effective. Remarkable! There are no stakes, no one can die, there is infinite plot armor, and the visuals are fucking awful! Magic circles are thrown across the screen with photoshop, CGI fire is copy-pasted ontop of hideous background art, and all the character art is overexposed. Academy and you'll feel drowsy in seconds! No anime has made me fall asleep faster since Kenja no Mago! It blends every generic power-fantasy anime trope into a single episode. Just turn on an episode of The Misfit of Demon King Hi, I'm RebelPanda and I've made it my job to ensure YOU get the good night's sleep you deserve. I finally found the cure for insomnia, and its name is The Misfit of Demon King Academy. Melatonin, Benadryl, Trazadone, even horse-tranquilizers. A lack of sleep can cause depression, anxiety, weight gain, etc. After watching so many bad anime, I stay up all night tossing and turning in bed. How often do you get a good night's sleep? As he sets out to uncover those altering his glorious past, he takes it upon himself to make his descendants recognize that their ruler has finally returned. This "lack" of common knowledge renders him the academy's outlier-a misfit never before seen in history.ĭespite these drawbacks, Anos remains unfazed. His personality, his deeds, and even his legacy are all falsified-masked beneath the name of an impostor. Moreover, when he enrolls at the academy to reclaim his rightful title, he finds out that demonkind remembers him differently. He reincarnates two millennia later, but to his surprise, he soon learns that the level of magic in the world has drastically waned during his absence. In preparation for their king's return, the demon race created the Demon King Academy, an elite institution tasked with determining Anos' identity when he reawakens. To put an end to this seemingly endless conflict, Demon King Anos Voldigoad willingly sacrificed his life, hoping to be reborn in a peaceful future. In the distant past, a war between humans and demons brought about widespread chaos and bloodshed.
