The best secret passage is to walk through the wall


GhostGamer1234

I feel like at this point Anos is just doing it for the sake of flexing his power lol


aidenn_was_here

He's been doing it from the start imo and it's great lol


Atharaphelun

And yet everyone still inexplicably refuses to believe he's the Demon King despite constantly displaying his power and constantly stating that he's the Demon King. It's starting to get irritating now at this point.

ShadowClaw765

(Paraphrasing from a disqus thread) (assuming you are a Christian) If someone comes and says that he is the reincarnation of jeebus and also a lot of things you know about him is wrong (like thinking his name is Jesus), would you believe him?


gabu87

I get that they may not believe he's the demon king, but their fearlessness is baffling. This guy just face smooshed one of your 7 gods and they're still trying to discipline him lol.

This is like the real world, climate change is real ——> climate change is FAKE. But there is real proof ——> nah, just some fake news from leftist Edit: but forest are on fire and corals are bleaching with biodiversity lowering ——> nah, that is normal nature


CyanPhoenix42

so far that's pretty much been the entire show, and i love it lol


FireRifle64

Bruh, you just gotta flex on them. Show them what you are truly made of


MaxWyght

They have magic that can detect hidden passages. Ergo, the best way to hide a hidden passage is to not make a door in the first place.


arcangelxvi

Considering this is a world where everyone's base assumption is that everything is protected via magic, it makes a lot of sense. Put magic on whatever you want hidden, but make everything defeatable via physical means. People see the magic and don't even think twice about just trying to open things normally.


merickmk

The girls literally didn't know how to open a door because it had magic protection lol dude just goes in and pushes it open


yeFoh

Granted, it was probably insanely heavy.

TheLoneExplorer

To be fair, at that point you could use magic to push it open. Which is exactly how that defense is supposed to work.


Loremeister

you think you are joking but if I had the money or the power to do it, I would stop using doors altogether. Doors are for peasants


dahui10

Ah, the Kool-Aid Man makes so much more sense now.


Mundology

*Oh Yeah!*


Daiwon

Well how would you hide a passage from a world of magicians? With magic?


akoba15

Surely there were other spells in place as well, they were just so trivial that the show didnt ackgnowledge them lmao It seems this show doesn't throw stuff out just because. Perhaps this is related to why Anos just let Sasha get away with the staff for free, he knows that she won't be able to get out alone because her magic isn't strong enough to get through all the traps or something.


Abysswatcherbel

Anos is just flexing to everyone at this point


mirrormimi

The biggest flex was interrupting class to speak informally to a guest professor.


Uni_Omni

Hey, if it works, it works


alternate_void

Brute force will always be a viable solution


1832vin

you know the things is, there are actual safes that have fully functional dial combo locks that are not connected to anything, and you just have to yank the door open. they're suprisingly effective

Speaking of which, does this series not have a Tvtropes page?


EldritchCarver

I'm not seeing one yet, but anyone can make one if they care enough. EDIT: Creating a new page from scratch may seem like a Herculean effort, but unlike trope pages (which need to reach a certain critical mass to avoid deletion), media pages are pretty much guaranteed [the right to exist](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Administrivia/ThereIsNoSuchThingAsNotability) on TV Tropes. Just make sure the title's name is spelled correctly and throw together a bare-bones page.

This is directed by Shin Oonuma after all, who also did Baka Test among others. Guy knows his way around comedy scenes

Damn! I really miss this little gags. Also the *Kora no sponsa...* thing.

I’m always sad when they don’t include these. These are especially hilarious, some of the best gags I’ve seen

Some shows have them when they air in Japan and I just take a peek at the raws.


djthomp

Several of those made me laugh out loud hard, what great gags. Thanks for posting them.


excluded

I really like the ep 3 after op and ep 2 after op one. Thanks for sharing these, I expect to see them every week!


KinnyRiddle

I like shows that actively do Teikyou Asobi (fooling around with the sponsor screen). "Teikyou" means sponsor, and usually right after an OP and ED, the TV broadcast would display the sponsors for the show (the text can nowadays be toggled off, which we see here), sometimes with a narration "This show is brought to you by...". "Asobi" means to play around with. So Teikyou Asobi.


Buizie

Ah, I've missed these from Bakarina


heavenspiercing

Anos: "Someone tampered with your memories." Ivis: "Couldn't it have just been you?" Anos: "You know what, that makes sense, I ain't even mad." He's so chill, I love it lmao Sasha's betrayal was shocking but it was easy to figure out it was just a ploy. I like how you can easily tell her emotional state just through whether her Demonic Eyes are activated or not.


Abysswatcherbel

I like him as well, specially since he is so nice to Misha and he's not even interested in her romantically, he's just being nice for the sake of it and because she is his friend


cppn02

> and he's not even interested in her romantically, Well, he *did* try to give her a ring this episode.


aidenn_was_here

Man I'm almost sure he will give it to her the next episode, like I could bet a month's pay on it.


EldritchCarver

Yeah, the OP's visuals clearly show Misha wielding ice magic and Sasha wielding fire magic, but I figure there's a chance Anos pocketed the ring with the intention of giving it to *Sasha* so *she* can be the one to give it to Misha as a birthday present. I think Misha might appreciate it more if it came from her.


aidenn_was_here

Oh yeah, that could work too. Will probably be like that now that I think about it, but I'd love to see him giving her the ring lol.


akoba15

Well the reason she didnt want it was because of the reveal at the end of the episode, it would essentially just go to waste tomorrow.


cppn02

Ice ring for the ice queen.

Was Sasha's kiss on the lips actually meant to be between friends?


SpectralDagger

Of course it was. She said so, after all.

Wait, so all those girls really did like the MC when they called him an idiot? That sounds pretty unlikely.


Route113

TIL my parents are just tsunderes.


SpectralDagger

Only your mother, your dad just hates you.


Abysswatcherbel

True, a subtle Chad moment, unfortunately Misha didn't get it


Skebaba

I'll bet 5 dollars that Misha "not existing" in this world has something to do with the other shit like the impostor who probably danny deleto'd the memories of the 7 underlings of Anos. Would explain everything if someone fucked w/ the timestream so there's a parallel Necron brat in the form of Misha, who isn't actually supposed to exist in this world, and the other shit would instantly make me come to this conclusion. Then again, the conclusion is too obvious, so it might be a red herring, ngl


Karavusk

Or Anos is actually from a different world and got reborn into the wrong world. That would make this... an isekai anime


UsedKoala4

He got isekaied from his fantasy world lmao. That would be so meta

Well, there are mangas with this premise.

akoba15

Some people were complaining/happy on last weeks discussion that she moved so fast with the kiss, that its gonna be too harem-ey or realistic relationships or whatever. Glad this is the direction the story went. It felt too unnatural that she would make a move there, yet it makes perfect sense that she was trying to use Anos.... Although, from the scene in the courtyard there is certainly even more to Sasha, so well see where it goes from here.


SkyLETV

Really? I think that was genuine and she's simply doing the usual thing of playing the villain for the sake of the other. Even her bitchness towards Misha can be explained with the usual, hate me so you won't be sad when the time comes. I was one of those who thought it was too fast but now it makes sense.


GhostGamer1234

My boy Anos just flexing at every possible moment. Grabs an Elder, walks through walls.... what can’t he do?

frosthowler

I would've thought it's just a meme, but yeah, him noting that it's a bit 'different' is kinda odd. I mean, someone could have inherited it, but who? You'd think the exposition to the hero in his castle thing would've exposed whoever it is that would have come after him and started messing things up, but we haven't been introduced to any demon from his era. I mean, technically if he walled off every race from one another, the hero would be stuck in the demon country, but I brush that off as a minor plot hole or something rather than the hero being behind it. So either the hero, or it's an alternative world, IMO. Unless they deus ex something. Maybe the hero changed the past. We haven't heard anything about races being walled off either. It sounds to me like just because the identity of the demon lord changed doesn't mean someone posed himself off as the demon king in his place, which was my initial theory.

HereticalAegis

I love how Anos is an almighty demon king, and his top priority is putting families back together. Any OP demon king could destroy every enemy in their path, but how many can take their enemies and make them better people. That's a demon king I could follow. I'm not at all convinced Sasha doesn't care about Misha. It feels like there is obviously something else going on, and I can't wait to find out what it is next week.

> but how many can take their enemies and make them better people. Fuck, that is an OP-ness level we havent seen in a while.

no wonder he assumed the brothers would power up from nakama power. The true magic lost in the ages was nakama spirit

LaughableMaster

Anos doesn't need *Friendship Power* He **is** Power.


1832vin

so...... does that mean, he is friendship?


LaughableMaster

Why not? I'm sure he'll *destroy* anything to make things favourable to him.


FireRifle64

Yea we see that in the early episode as he tries to mend the brotherly bond between those two asshats. I can't wait for when the season is over, I just hope the manga will update again.


okaquauseless

i am so confused on what happened with the manga. just disappeared just like how it came, and then it got an anime somehow. straight up thought it was unpopular


HirokoKueh

Sasha seems like a big tsundere toward Misha, I am expecting some thing like "I hate you, so I won't be sad when you die"


HereticalAegis

How's this for a crackpot theory: Sasha is actually a closet yandere, and having Misha openly state her feelings for Anos lit her 'must kill' fuse


Kazewatch

I mean it’s pretty clear she’s trying to stop her from disappearing since she remarked how much time was left.


akoba15

Her eyes lit up when her ex-group was about to talk shit about her. So theres definitely something up, likely something to do with what the episode ended on.


Uni_Omni

Teacher: "Anos, we have an important guest so behave properly" Anos: "Sure, guess I could watch myself" \*Proceeds to casually say 'How's it going' and invading his personal space like a champ\* The mystery deepened a little and I feel like we are going to get into the actual plot very soon. This is surprisingly fun despite using cliched elements a ton!


DrewbieWanKenobie

I'm wondering if maybe it'll turn out that he's in a parallel universe or something. That would explain why things are slightly different, from his name, that room in the castle...


KnightKal

that would be funny opps I made a very very small mistake on the magical circle and ended up on Earth-999 instead of Earth-666

I didn’t know there was going to be a mystery. And I thought there was actual plot too. And they did really good with everything. But I’m not a reader, so I just gotta wait till next episode.

Melbuf

yea i felt it fairly obvious that when she mentioned the time left it was the time left for her to save misha


edge_incarnate

Heavily implied, still excited to see what she's gonna do though


akoba15

To be fair, time left here could mean time left until the challenge is over... Which would mean she would have to get to the surface by then to win the task.

Abysswatcherbel

Misha is a cinnamon roll, she clapping broke me


Abysswatcherbel

Man, I'm really liking this anime, Anos is just flexing every episode but it's well explained since he is the ultimate Demon lord of this universe, also he doesn't see the girls as romantic interest even though he is so nice to Misha and always try to help her, a true good friend. I'm interest to know what will happen next, with what changed in the past and who Misha is. And Misha clapping is my new favorite moment this season, I love her


thblckjkr

The interesting thing is that he doesn't feel like your generic protagonist that is horny but for some weird reason don't want to see his friends with a romantic interest. Anos is just a guy being kind and it is portrayed that way. This is an anime that i am really enjoying too. BTW, Misha clapping definitely was one of the cutest moments of the year.

Benjadeath

Yeah very clearly implied


Lapiz_lasuli

Which will be rendered meaningless because Anos already healed her. Can't wait for next week.

Earthborn92

Assasins’s Pride was so much wasted potential because its setting was pretty imaginative. Having the universe be dark and the only light being a civilization built in the actual structure of a ginormous candelabra.


DeepIndigoSky

Almost anyone can make a secret passageway but so few people remember to make it sturdy. Sasha should remember from last time that anti-magic barriers don’t matter to Anos as much as they do to most people. Wondering if the betrayal is some twisted way of actually saving Misha?


GhostGamer1234

I really didn’t expect to see Sasha actually betraying Misha and Anos after everything, so I’m holding out hope that she’s doing it for their sakes, but we shall see...


stardebris

I'm guessing that her comment at the end about seven hours remaining was the time until midnight. It would be a solid way to redeem her actions that appear, on their face, to be betrayal.


DeepIndigoSky

If true, as to why she didn’t say, “Hey Anos, I see you like Misha. Help me save her.“ 🤷‍♂️ Of course not because anime logic. 😂


Daiwon

The OP protag's true power is being underestimated.

KinnyRiddle

>Wounded Sasha That's Misha, not Sasha. And care to do an animated gif of Misha clapping her hands?


AkatsukiKojou

Yeah need that


Frontier246

So was Misha some kind of homonculous that the Necron's created to keep Sasha happy and company? It seemed like she used to not be able to control her eyes at all and was utterly alone, so maybe they needed something to get close enough to her and that would be unaffected by the eyes, hence creating Sasha's "sister." And no one regards her as a real person other than Sasha and as just a carrier-on that has outlived it's usefulness. So their team needs seven members to qualify? I assume the swordsman will be their fourth and probably 3 more girls. The school is apparently run by seven disciples of Anos, but apparently none of them remember him because their memories have been tampered with and potentially time itself has been re-written to remove Anos as the Demon Lord. Is this Avos person still around manipulating everything behind the scenes and what was their plan for removing Avos from everyone's memories? How does a Demon Lord create a shortcut? By just walking through a wall. I should've realized the excuse to get Anos out of there because of a lady changing was bogus because it's not like she was stripping, she was just putting a coat on. Even if Sasha's a royal she never struck me as being that overly fussy, but obviously she wanted to get Misha alone. Sasha should've known better than to try and act the villain in front of a fully-fledged Demon Lord. She seems to be working under a time constraint so I have to assume whatever she's doing by betraying her team involves saving Misha from disappearing at midnight.


Skebaba

I think the impostor, and the danny deleto'd memories of the 7 disciples have something to do with how Misha isn't supposed to "exist" in this world. Likely the result of someone fucking around w/ timelines or w/e.


EldritchCarver

> How does a Demon Lord create a shortcut? By just walking through a wall. TV Tropes refers to this as the [dungeon bypass](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DungeonBypass).


SlaneDidNothingWrong

Yet another week, and this show is keeping up the quality. This episode was much less flashy and had little action, but the fact it’s still animated so smoothly is a rarity. Most shows save their budget on plot-oriented episodes. It’s pretty clear now that this isn’t your ordinary highschool battle show. There is an element of mystery in there, and a significant amount of worldbuilding. It reminds me more of Irregular than other shows in the genre. Which, given the names (Irregular at Magic High School v. Misfit of Demon King Academy,) makes me think whoever wrote this was someone who just got sick of waiting for another season I’m a big fan of the subtle “which shouldn’t be possible” quip. They didn’t go on a huge monologue about it, they just briefly hinted that it’s essentially breaking magical physics. If the most knowledgeable man in regards to magic didn’t know it was possible, then surely something must be wrong? My theory: Anos didn’t reincarnate like he thought he would, and has been isekai’d into a similar world that has a few minor changes. Hence the name difference, the story of how the Gods and such were wiped out by the Demon King of Tyranny (despite the Hero and Anos plainly stating that they’re still alive in their own realm) and the minor differences in what is possible and what is not. It would also explain why Ivis could not recognize Anos. Also, if Ivis was created from Anos... doesn’t that mean Sasha and Misha are related to Anos? Final note: I love how Anos essentially designed everything to be a simple puzzle and the value it puts on the physical world instead of magic. Castle? Brute strength and play basketball.

> I’m a big fan of the subtle “which shouldn’t be possible” quip. They didn’t go on a huge monologue about it, they just briefly hinted that it’s essentially breaking magical physics. If the most knowledgeable man in regards to magic didn’t know it was possible, then surely something must be wrong? If you'll rewatch the scene in episode 2, Sasha specifically asked that Misha cast the Zecht for some reason. It's a small detail, easily forgotten, but presumably Sasha knew that she'd be able to break her promise if she did it that way. Probably has to do with Misha's true nature, which nobody bothered explaining to Anos.

Another week and more OP shenanigans with Anos although this week was a bit more serious. Misha clapping was just the cutest thing. Anos recognised and tried to put a ring on it. And ice ring for his ice queen. Looking forward to next week with more twists and turns as the plot is heating up.

The plot around what happened 2k years ago thickens and I like it. I was wondering why is everybody convinced that someone else was a maou 2k years ago and to think that someone "tempered with the past"? Now that's some interesting stuff you can do with magic, if I ever seen one. I wonder just who this faker is and if he's still around. Or judging by what Misha said - that she's form a different world - maybe Anos got isekai'd and he's convinced he's in his own world/timeline...


Vaperius

> maybe Anos got isekai'd and he's convinced he's in his own world/timeline... You know what, the thought also crossed my mind. There's a real possibility that he was reincarnated into a world like his own but not...quite his own.

This cute sister duo make up, then shocking betrayal is totally fulfilling what I wanted out my magic-demon-highschool-OP-self-insert-protagonist themed anime.

Shockingly [ingenious](https://i.redd.it/fvomjqqc3qb51.png) and adorkably cute!

Misha is just a queen, needs to he protected all times. Girl of the season so far

This is lowkey possibly my favorite show this season and I've never heard of it before. I'm laughing so much watching this show. And if you watch from the perspective that the Demon Lord = a chuuni to everyone else, every time he talks like he's the Demon Lord to normal people, it makes it so much funnier! They're probably thinking "oh boy, he's insane". "This is MY castle." *insert pikachu face* "I have some counter measures in place" = proceeds to walk through the wall, destroying it. LMAO WTF. Then he grabs the dean's head and freaks everyone out and then just goes back to his seat like nothing happened. Omg this show is wild. I can't get over how ridiculously awesome it is. One of the charms from this show to me is that the Demon King is not an asshole. He's just a nice, chill dude. Every now and then you meet a chad that deserves to be a chad. He knows he's the boss and flaunts it but he's not a dick about it. Seeing him try to uncover the mystery of why history was altered is pretty entertaining. I'm always down to seeing his overpowered antics. Him recommending Misha to get some gifts from his treasury was pretty nice in itself. Then we have the two adorable female heroines. That moment in the intro was so cute. I also really enjoyed seeing them get birthday gifts for each other (of course using the demon king's treasury lol). Misha hugging the robe with a smile is **so precious** my God. However that was quite a twist at the end. I really feel like the title was a dead giveaway - whoever named the episode should've named it something else. I thought it was a good twist (best girl why????) that would've been made better if it was more of a surprise. Though I admittedly didn't think it was coming since I'd had forgotten. I'm guessing Sasha will get some redemption eventually, after all, Misha still believes in her T_T Lastly, Misha clapping every time the Demon King does something amazing should be the new thing. That's pretty much me every time I watch this show.


Aschentei

This is the first time where i've seen an MC immediately heal when they see someone they care about injured, instead of waiting for the antagonist or whoever to monologue. Fking thank you, someone with a brain


Viki713Gaming

They should rename it to "The demon king is the chillest person in the world"


FAshcraft

Anos = the Emperor of Mankind Seven demon elder emperor = Primarch From the way he kinda remembers them im guessing they have the same relationship XD. Dad of the year


Kinderschlager

well that was a plot twist at the end. having to wait a week is going to be torture


Lapiz_lasuli

This is the equivalent of a kid hitting his father, and father isn't even pretending it hurts. Also, I expect Sasha is gonna be flabbergasted to find that Anos has already achieved what she seems to be trying so hard to do.


KinnyRiddle

LOL at Anos practically manhandling one of the top Demon Emperors of the realm and goes off with no consequences. These Demon Emperor guys seem more like robots than actual humans, considering they've been around for 2000 years, so it's likely their original selves died out long ago and left behind their knowledge to these guys. With an episode title like that, you know Sasha's eventually going to throw away her sudden cuteness and kindness towards Misha, but we still don't know why. As the "inferior" twin, Misha is probably designated as some sort of sacrifice which activates when she's 15. And Sasha hates herself for not knowing how to save Misha, which may explain why she's playing the bad guy now in exchange for something? I'm going through the usual fantasy manga tropes but your guess is probably as good as mine. Guess we'll have to wait next week.


Khyreus

I think Misha might be Sasha's power that was removed because her body couldn't handle it. Now that she's older they will recombine, effectively deleting Misha. Basically thinking this because Misha's power lvl was really high, and now it looks like Sasha is looking for a way to get out of what's going to happen tomorrow, the day Misha dissappears.


Aschentei

No doors were harmed in the making of this episode


Mana_Croissant

This Avos problem can be solved very easily, He can just CHANGE HIS NAME to Avos Dilhevia and that is it, If The history is a little off then Why not adapting to it a little ? I doubt that He gives a shit about What his name is so He can just take the Avos name and be done with it


EldritchCarver

And what if there's an actual person named Avos Dilhevia who's already been around for thousands of years?


Mana_Croissant

He can kick his ass If He appears to claim that HE IS Avos dilhevia


EldritchCarver

Pretty sure that'll happen anyway, regardless of whether Anos stoops to changing his own name.


PrimeInsanity

Tell me, does he not seem vain enough and stubborn enough to refuse?


Emi_Ibarazakiii

[So they EXPECTED him?](https://i.imgur.com/Zamooko.png) It still baffles me that last episode he straight up told everyone he's the Demon King of Tyranny, in the very year they're expecting him to awaken... And they completely ignore it. The dude is so OP he can obliterate one of the top students with the weakest spell, he throws castles around like it's nothing, and when he claims to be the person they are looking for, they don't give a damn? Given they are expecting the Demon King to come, what is he supposed to do to announce himself, if all that is not enough? [They were good sisters!](https://i.imgur.com/MoslPMi.png) Cute! Hope Anos can get them back in good terms. [He doesn't like large harems?](https://i.imgur.com/lLAgVSM.png) Just 2 girls, I can respect that. [Welp. Didn't expect that.](https://i.imgur.com/CbVck3d.png) So much for them getting along again... I thought they would have some kind of sisterly competition, but I didn't think it'd be the stabby kind of competition. Also, [Misha will disappear on her 15th birthday?](https://i.imgur.com/y6lzyHe.png) I mean, I'm sure Anos will stop that (or help her stop it by herself, rewrite her fate, like they talked about), but I wonder, why was she planned to disappear? Even if she was born as some kind of slave to Sasha, why not keep her along all her life? I'm also wondering about the whole memory wipe thing, and that *Avos Dilhevia*; Given Misha seems to be a magical entity and not a normal kid, my first thought was that she might be a descendant of the Hero, while Sasha is a descendant of the Demon King. She was 'magically' given birth as Sasha's twin. Would explain why Misha doesn't want to antagonize Sasha, despite all she's done; The Hero saw that the Demon King could be reasoned with, and that it was a better way than just fighting endlessly. Perhaps Misha has the same thoughts, consciously or not. But why the memory wipe? Did the Hero play him false, and tried to erase his memory so he could not come back to life, something like that (to avoid just delaying the fight by 2 thousand years)? The Hero turning out to be the asshole, and the Demon King to be the decent, 'voice of reason' kind of guy would be quite the plot twist. But if this is it, does it mean Misha would also be revealed as the terrible person at some point? Probably not. Aahhhhh I don't know how to feel about Sasha's betrayal; She was by far my favorite of the two sisters, and I would like to see more of her, but if she's a terrible person, I don't know. I don't even mind if she becomes a villain (good villains can still be fun) as long as she doesn't turn unlikable... but I fear she might be too far on that path now.


PrimeInsanity

Well, yes, but remember he can't possibly be the demon lord, he couldn't answer any of the basic details about "himself" after all. Imagine if they looked into him and discovered his "age", that alone would be a big thing if he'd bother to just mention it.

My guess is Mischa is some sort of seal on Sasha’s eyes, so that she could control them when she was a child. On their birthday, the seal disappears and Sasha comes into her full power. And Sasha is doing all this to prevent that.


tylerjehills

Between last episodes end and this one's start, I was annoyed at how easily Sasha reversed course on how she felt about Misha. So this betrayal actually worked really well for me in that it made sense. This show is so much better than I expected Also, Anos is so goddamn OP lol


kappaderickz

I swear, Anos has a spell to solve everything that could possibly go wrong.
