Hataraku Maou-sama!

[Yukimura]

I'm glad this is over and I'm not surprised that I had to find out this was the last ep from seeing the ep count online. I kept watching out of a combination of completionism and a modicum of hope that the fantasy elements of the story might actually come to some interesting resolution but it was never going to happen and I could have seen that from episode 2 or 3.

The show was always a slice of life comedy to the core and just happened to use fantasy tropes as an occasional source of conflict. The comedy fell outside my pleasure range for the vast majority of the show and while it certainly did have its moments for me on the whole I won't be missing it one bit.
