The Devil Is A Part-Timer! That title aside, I don't think we've been told or taught that the Devil is a part-timer! So really, I think that's even one way to drive people's interest and attention into wanting to know just how exactly it is that "The Devil is a Part-Timer." And that's the one primary reason you're currently going through this review. And here's a bit of an unpopular opinion: "this anime does deserve a season two and shouldn't be left to end at episode 13 of its single one". But well, that's up to the writers and directors to decide. But oh well, let's go into reviewing this "single season" anime and talk about it under different topics ranging from the storyline, plot, characters, art, music, and all that. When most anime is set in a world where people from the real world somehow end up in a fantasy world (like SAO and No Game No Life), this series is brave enough to do the opposite. It's fantastic that fantasy characters have such a strong attachment to the human world that they choose to remain in it. I'm not sure if my assessment of this show is fair. There are heroes, then there are heroes, and then there are heroes. I can think of at least ten other anime with a stage like this one. Can't they try a little harder to think outside the box? Because of this, they quickly adapt to human society when they enter it. As an average person, the Devil begins to look for work and a place to call home. However, as I've repeatedly asked myself throughout the show, I can't figure out what the show's goal is. What does it matter if these mystical beings live at the very bottom of human society? I don't see the point. What's their destination? They're going to take over the entire human race. I know this series hasn't been completed, but can you offer us a hint? In addition, the story is lighthearted. On the other hand, this sitcom does a fine job of providing mindless amusement. In contrast to most others I've seen, the gags in this comedy are both "relatable" and humorous. That, I suppose, is the entire idea of the show. You'll laugh out loud at the pop-culture allusions. I think the characters are intriguing and unusual. In this story, the demons are less evil, the hero is less heroic, and the angels are less angelic. This concept is amusing and enjoyable. Of course, this show features a who's who of comedic characters. He's the protagonist's BFF, the girl's boyfriend, and everyone else's Moe. Over time, their personalities evolved tremendously. Starting as a figure with an easygoing demeanor, the Demon King develops into one who is capable of great courage and justice. Because he found something wonderful and worthwhile, he decided to stay in the human world. It's a little over the top, but the arc it takes is well done. After a while, the hero realizes she may not have a motive to kill the demon. She eventually comes to appreciate the character of her adversary. There are a few minor characters, but they all have a role and have their tiny tales to tell. The question remains, "so what?" Some don't mind this, but I'm not one of them. I don't care much for stories that focus on characters' lives rather than events. To begin with, I found the art to be quite appealing and refreshing, which is why I decided to watch it. The background is reminiscent of Tokyo's "past and present," while the characters each have distinct styles and colors. Style is a difficulty with this type of work. The show's art is too generic and doesn't stand out aesthetically. Okay, so I'll notice the fan service for a moment. That's all I have to say about the subject. In terms of animation, to be clear, the images on the screen move fluidly. Except for the talking heads, the screens don't do much throughout this anime. Why are they still utilizing 2-D clip art to depict fading dust in action sequences if this anime was released in 2013? The fights are summed up well by the appearance of enormous colored balls accompanied by laser beams in the sky. They don't look very well. I'm shocked that the graphics are this series' worst weakness; I'm gutted. A high-budget anime with hundreds of fight scenes? No, thanks. We can make do with this. The intro song isn't bad. However, the lack of identifiable music severely ruined the show's atmosphere for me when I arrived. To the point that I didn't bother listening to it online, it's simply not memorable enough for me to waste my time listening to it. A generic song concludes the film, despite the poor quality of the animation. In general, the music isn't perfect. (You may like it, but it's not exceptional). The sound effects and music in the soundtrack are rather good. It's a comedy, so you shouldn't be terrified or worried during the "serious" sequences, but the music is perfect since it's both dramatic and soothing during the comedic ones. However, the soundtrack failed to leave an impression and serve a symbolic purpose despite all of this. My favorite comedic dub of all time is this one. It's hysterically entertaining. The "Moonbucks, McDonald's, and SFC" stuff make the voyage a heck of a run. Likewise, the work on the subs is excellent. Watch the dub if you like a more authentically westernized anime experience; on the other hand, the sub is a lot more enjoyable and has better Japanese speech and comedy. After taking my review of the program too seriously, I decided to consider its comic elements. For the most part, it wasn't supposed to be a concert that people would talk about for decades. It's just a show that makes you happy for a brief period. Although the program is entertaining and worth watching if you have the time, don't anticipate anything profound or thought-provoking since you won't receive anything from it.
