brother crab's fall 2024 first impressions: maou 2099
i think i forgot to make a post after the first ep because my first impressions of it were just. not that deep. i do remember going in with zero expectations and thinking hey this is actually better and more interesting than what i'd imagined! but it still wasn't That interesting
HOWEVER
SECOND EPISODE ELEVATED EVERYTHING
Tumblr media
first of all peak bishounen demon lord design here. nothing revolutionary but a solid classic. 10/10 no notes
and like okay so the premise of a ye olden fantasy times demon lord being defeated then resurrected into a far future sci-fi world sounded really fun with the potential to be super funny. it made me think of paripi koumei which was basically incredible
the first ep was a little higher on the drama than the humor imo, but the second ep? second ep, the humor really hit
i'm absolutely loving the demon lord's extremely loyal, faithful follower who worked for centuries to resurrect him and is also his number one simp. like this poor girl almost got outed as a demon king otome doujinshi otaku. right in front of her demon king
demon lord's job hunt and the outcome of it is also just. i won't even spoil it because. hilarious. truly
the worldbuilding is also reasonably interesting, i think that was one of the things that impressed me most in the first episode
overall, really pleasantly surprised by this one and looking forward to more!
