"there's no way to win unless we get the absolute biggest, strongest, and cutest girl"

it was a foregone conclusion as soon as they presented this dilemma.

Clara (and probably her family by extension) have an ability that could make them some of the most powerful demons ever. They choose not to, however, because they are pure and good.

Either Amelie's or Iruma's heights are completely wrong, because Iruma is like half as tall as she is.

It's clearly a print error, and their heights are measured in Devimeters, with an inscrutable translation to metric.

It's like how Koichi in Diamond is Unbreakable is 5'2" but standing next to any other character he's three feet tall at most.

I just burned through the series--it's a lot of fun.

Indeed. If you'd told me early on that the gamer of the group would turn out to be Iruma's little brother. I honestly wouldn't have believed you. Yet here we are and ever since the harvest festival, Lied has really grown into his own.

Lied has legitimately become one of my favorite characters. I also adore how both he and Iruma insist that the other is the little brother.

Iruma had already debuted as a girl so he kind of had to. Lied was just because she'd made him do it once during the Harvest Festival.

I think it could also be that her studio only employs female idols. I haven't seen a mixed sexes crew because the two guys are on the team as well.

Also a fun little piece of foreshadowing. Back when Kurumi was telling the misfit class about the hell dance the lone girl that was still in sync with her should look very familiar.

Both of them being into each other and finding the worst ways possible to express it is a fun twist.

I love that we're keeping the idea of Lilith's Dance around as more than just a metaphor for Ix's own stance on love and future arc. It seems clear that Kerori does have some mutual feelings for Gyari outside of being an idol fan and doesn't want to just be cast aside after being "acquired". So she filters that through her inner fangirl and outer professionalism. A perfectly reasonable stance given Gyari has only shown the side of her that covets other girls by the armful.

Which makes me wonder what face Gyari has underneath the rock star persona and whether she's also over-acting as a way to filter her more transparent feelings for Kuromi.

I especially like how it interprets classical vices like greed and power as good things in demon society. Hold what you desire close to you, and have the strength to protect it.
