I like Sabnock's arc a lot. His moment of most growth just came up in the anime, and it's good to see here that he took the advice seriously.

I found the anime recently and I haven’t laughed out loud so hard in a long time. Is the manga worth reading or would I spoil the laughs?

The manga is extremely good, though the anime does stick really close to it so you may not want to read too far ahead if you prefer to be surprised.

Even having read the manga I still get a lot of laughs out of the anime, because they do a great job of fleshing stuff out and bringing the manga to life.

The anime has songs and fleshes out stuff, the manga has better pacing.

The first 20-30 chapters have pretty rough art, but it picks up around the point the anime is at currently and has actually gotten quite good.

There's some extra stuff that may not be animated like Anthology stuff, the Kalego in school chapters and the official Spin-off.

That does confirm a suspicion I had since the moment I saw them.

In hindsight the hair should have tipped me off, but seeing them side by side it's actually more amazing they aren't blood related.

Man, the Royal One arc was so good. Now I really hope they make a few more seasons so we can get to see things like the Music Festival animated.

Given how well the series seems to be doing, I imagine it's pretty much a sure thing that everything will get adapted at some point. And it's just a matter of when, not if.

I was convinced the big reveal of the royal one was that it was a total dump and the demon king was in the misfit group of his time. Would have been on brand for this series. I guess they subverted my subverted expectations by actually making it really nice. Fun little perspective trick I noticed, normal Iruma is dwarfed by the thrown, but evil Iruma fit it perfectly.

With the way they're showing Purson in the OP and ED, I think it'll get to at least that point.

I am increasingly coming to the conclusion that the one weakness of this series is that there is not more of it.

I already ship Clara and Sabro so giving her future sister-in-law a high energy mentor to match her own personality is fine by me. It's always good to have a climbing buddy.

Just realized from the newest chapters:





Which might seem like a coincidence, but given that Gyari first showed up all the way back in the Amusement Park arc, it wouldn't surprise me if they were the same.

Lied continues to be a great character and I appreciate that he'll one day be able to give fashion advice to his girlfriend with some authority. Also in this chapter Nafra being a chick didn't register to me but the fact that she gets along with Ronove so well should have been a clue. That's twice in two chapters I've missed a detail that's in my face about character relationships. I also like Elizabeth continuing to be very socially minded. She saw Clara's discomfort on the wing topic and shifted gears immediately. I really want her to get an arc sometime soon, it's really her and the bird guy that haven't gotten it yet.

I just realized after your observation that Back during the flight test Clara rode on Admodeus the entire time and likely did that cause either her wings are not functional or she just does not have them

My theory is Clara has really big or evil or gross looking wings and she is embarrassed about them because she likes the cute aesthetic.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

Right. I thought there was another odd one besides the serious one. Obviously, he's probably resembling their father's personality while everyone else is following mama's.
