I really enjoy the concept of this series! Helck is a human “hero” who claims to hate his own kind and wants to become a lord among demons. To stop him, Elite Lord Vermilio will go to any length to see him knocked out of the tournament and unable to win the title. Vermilio’s antics are a bit silly and cliche, but I still enjoyed them. I’m definitely a bit confused about the world this takes place in, but I hope my questions will be answered as the series progresses.

Lady Vermilio herself is an incredible protagonist so far. Despite possessing a number of annoying cliche anime traits—such as destroying everything in her vicinity when angered—she is a fierce and loyal leader who will stop at nothing to protect her people. All of her subordinates respect her deeply and, from what I can tell, she has earned that respect. Hon is the best little lackey. What he lacks in brains, he makes up for in dedication and enthusiasm.
