It wasn't the worst shit I've watched, but it was godawful. Ugh. It took me a month to watch it, a 13 episode anime, when it usually takes me 1-2 weeks to watch good 13 episode animes.

Fuck

Why watch it to the end if you were hating it so much? :(

Dunno about OP, but I disliked it because it was yet another anime series that ended without any kind of resolution. I kinda hate anime these days because they almost always pull that shit. Even manga has a higher chance of being cancelled before we get an ending.

My weebiness is falling apart because the weeby shit I like is actually kinda bad storytelling.

That's cuz Devil is a Part Timer is originally an LN. The anime only covers like the first 2 volumes or so, manga covers up to about vol 5 or so I think? But the LN has like 12+ vol. Saying these numbers off the top of my head so it's probably not super accurate, but the general magnitude is the same

One look at it and I knew it was mediocre. You had to not only watch the first 4 but actually finish the whole thing to conclude it? Were you expecting it to get drastically better?

If I could find a place where LNs weren't translated by five year olds who'd only just learned how to spell words like cat, I'd be so happy. But as it is, fans of LNs who only speak English are gonna have a bad time.

I liked it. Was pretty funny. But yeah, I doubt we're getting a season 2. It's been years.

It had pacing issues as the episodes covered the manga too quickly.

Also there's more in the manga but its unlikely to be turned into anime at this point.

Yep, I had an LN general that lasted 6 months or so and reached 500 topic not too long ago. During the time, I faced many great ordeals from horrible translations, but one of the guy in there did a kickass translation of a Monster Hunter based LN. The difference was just uncanny. I wasn't really used to a proper translation like that
