Review:
In the 2020 anime seasons, there is less hype for any seasonal shows, as it’s not up to the Mark compared to previous years. Much like other shows, “Misfit of Demon King Academy” is also set in high school and has some shounen fights and tournament arcs. “Misfit of Demon King Academy” is based on a fantasy world with the help of magical powers. The protagonist of the series “Anos voldigoad” is a different approach from the main character as he is on the demon’s side, which is shown the bad side of the world. “Anos voldigoad” is all you can expect from the protagonist; even if he is from the demon side, he tries to make the situation stable in a good way. Anos is shown to be very overpowered in the series, the writer of the series didn’t hold back for the protagonist, so don’t think Anos will hold back for the villains.
Power fantasy genres have gotten common in the last couple of years. “Misfit of Demon King Academy” is no different from them. But from a story perspective, this is a good story and decent anime adaptation.
