Raim: "Population growth" is just a formal mathematical way of saying "How fast can people fuck?"

Balam: You're missing an important point of this, here. "Population growth" is just a formal mathematical way of saying "How fast can people fuck and also die?"

Raim: Actually it's more like "how much faster are people fucking than they are dying?"

Amaryllis: Fuck to death ratio.

Raim: Exactly!!

Robin: Rate of smash and pass.

Normally, the term "half-breed" (or more the vulgar "tar blood") refers to a demon whose one parent is from a well-established clan, while the other is from a "No Name" family. Usually they are also born out of wedlock, bringing their clan a flood of bad PR, gossip, and an ugly stain on their family tree. Thankfully in these peaceful civilized times in the Netherworld, most such half-breed children get to live to adulthood, even if their life path aren't as smooth as those of their full-blooded relatives.

Nobody could have possibly guessed that Professor Kalego - orderly, strict, aloof and old-fashioned Professor Kalego Naberius - would be a half-breed. And his mother is not even from a "No Name" family, but straight out of legends that were on the brink of fading away into history.

After all... angels were only supposed to be stories.

I like to think that angels for the Netherworld of Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun are like the old gods for our world. Very few people might believe and worship them still, but the overwhelming majority thinks of them as fun stories, ancient myths, basis for fantasy fiction. The only twist is that angels are an actual thing - they just haven't been around in the Netherworld for a couple dozens of millennia, after the demons finally calmed down and started on the path of actual civilization.

Now, full disclaimer: this design is NOT headcanon! In this house we strictly operate by the rule that headcanons cannot harm the actual timeline/storyline/worldbuilding of the story they are from. Angels have yet to be mentioned in the anime, they are non-existent in the worldbuilding. From what I can tell from glimpses into the manga, Kalego clearly has a "full-blooded" Naberius family (although I don't think the mother is ever mentioned?), no mixup around his lineage.

This design is merely for fun, and to work my creative muscles after a brief artblock :) One more sheet is coming with the details.

NHK, a sponsor of the paralympics, has been broadcasting 5-minute shorts made in collaboration with various anime series. episode 18 imagines goalball, a sport for the visually impaired, in the universe of mairmashita! iruma-kun. I'm absolutely starving for content so I translated it to the best of my ability

(disclaimer: I'm weak at spoken japanese and the original video had no jp subtitles provided, so I don't promise perfect accuracy. that said, I don't think I made any huge errors, so it should be a "good enough"-level translation)

if you want to see the original video, read related interviews with nishi and with iruma and clara's voice actors, or look at any of the other shorts, you can do so on the official site (linked in source)

Why the manga Mairimashita! Iruma-kun is a masterpiece, part # (idk at this point)

Spoilers for the latest M!IK chapter (332) under the cut ♡

Okay, I was loving this art-focused arc already, as someone who after... several years (hi I'm old)... decided to learn illustration for good. But unholy shit I wasn't expecting an actual storytelling lesson from Nishi-sensei!!! I'm specifically referring to these two pages:

..........do you see what Nishi did????? See, I always found the characters in M!IK to be exceptionally alive, as if they had independent lives outside the pages we can read. Basically all named characters are consistent and three-dimentional, even if they appeared for a couple of chapters at most. And there are LOTS of them, I tried to compile a spreadsheet for personal use and we are well beyond 100 at this point (I'm not done yet). This is most likely Nishi's writing method. It fits: "when it comes to terror designing characters, what's important is the foundation. When, where, from whom, and from what was that terror were that character's motivations born? Without that, art doesn't live". See all the crumbs of information Nishi left along the chapters, in text or drawings, or in the Q&As. M!IK's characters are alive, like the Bowing Palome. Clearly this is not new when it comes to storytelling in general, and to manga specifically. As an example, there's a whole chapter dedicated to character design in Hirohiko Araki's Manga in Theory and Practice, The Craft of Creating Manga (most recommended read btw), that goes over the data to collect even before drawing a character. I imagine that's among a mangaka's best practices. But that's the point, Nishi actually follows the rules of the Golden Way*, and created a work which is nearly perfect from any point of view: the four fundamentals (characters, story, setting, and themes), and even rhythm, art, comedy... I'm in awe. I know I sound like a smitten fan, and I am at this point, but seriously, this manga is qualitatively great, and it's a pity it's so underrated. *The set of rules/tips Araki compiled, which if followed would lead to a manga being successful, according to him. I guess there are other sources as well out there, like illustration schools? But this what I can tell you, as an outsider :D
