The Devil Is a Part-Timer!

Many will hate me for this, but that's how I see it. Although at first glance when looking at the first 2 chapters (and some that come later) it seems that it will be interesting and that it has a lot of lore saved for later, the truth is that it does not exploit it at any time. When these important scenes are over, the worst of the worst begins. The series basically boils down to a serious scene, a battle scene, and then 3 or 4 filler chapters. Yes, I understand that the characters do not have their powers and more, but it is that these chapters in between have an extremely generic and repetitive humor (removing certain exceptions that do give some grace), and some of the most filler things i have ever seen, and it is that in the end it simply feels that they put these action chapters very by force, if it weren't for these specific chapters I wouldn't realize that I'm watching an anime that is about demons and that kind of thing. And the series "ends" very openly, with a lot of unresolved doubts. Yes, I know they are going to do a second season, but that is not an excuse for all the other flaws. For the moment, this will be the score that it will have until it improves with time (if im not very lazy to watch it again...).

I've watched clips of this anime being shown all over the place (mostly Anime related YouTube channels) and at first time I watched it, I didn't watch it for too long because I basically was distracted with life. But yesterday, I finally got around to sit down and properly watch it.

I did find the show quite funny and enjoyable to watch such as the right scenes, transformation,blah blah. But I wouldn't call this my personal favourite comedy anime of all time because I thought the format was basically the same. Such as trying to concentrate on the story too much as a whole comedy but more on its serious side too. I think the fact it had 13 episodes didn't cover much of what I want out of it. It's been 6 years (also when I graduated secondary school) now and yet they didn't make a season 2, we honestly need it badly here regardless if I have to read the manga!!!!

Ah! This is how I wish Blue Exorcist had handled itself. Make it to wear you have action, humor, and not feel woefully incomplete. The Devil is a Part-Timer! did all those things very well. It knows what it's trying to do, so it doesn't try to create some epic plot line or anything like that. All it does is bring some nicely animated action scenes and plenty of humor. This show is not very deep, so if you are looking for something with a little more meat, you might want to look elsewhere. This is something you would either turn on in the background, or watch when you want to use zero of your brain cells, and I really have no issues with that. There is some minor stuff that bugged me, like "why did the bad guy just say screw it and live with the good guys" and "why did the good guys even think that was a good idea in the first place", but I can't complain too much. It did what it set out to do, which was to simply entertain me. I give this show a 7/10.

The Devil is a Part-Timer review.

Good fun comedy show with a little bit of story, pretty good show that you can just chill and watch.

Worth a watch, and hoping for an eventual second season 7.5/10

This is funniest anime, I have ever came across. I laughed the whole time. I can watch this whole day. However, it had only 13 episodes. Sadly there is no 2nd season.
