"I didn't see the part where he develops as a character so I guess he never developed as a character"
To me HELCK is like a very good steak. It's not gonna surprise me with hitherto unknown flavors or be presented as molecular foam on top of a sauce that is actually the puree of a baked potato and a salad put together. But it's gonna be a really drat good meal and I will enjoy the poo poo out of it even though I know exactly what I'm gonna get.

Now I'm hungry, and also I want more Helck. Read Helck.

Okay I'm sorry I said Helck wasn't original, I just really like Helck and struggle for the words

That said I only realized yesterday that Helck and Cless together are Heracles

I hope eventually we get to see whatever it is that the empire thinks is "SSS" level dangerous up north, considering even heroes like Cless (Helck is obviously outside the realm of the ordinary) were seen as C rank threats.

I'm still not quite clear on what position the demon that Cless killed had. Was he the king of all the demons? Or was he just king of that particular castle?


She's had death flags since she was first introduced.

He was just a regional King (more like a Lord than a King). Azudora and Vermilio are higher up than he was. I think I remember the humans thinking he was the King of all the demons, though. Correct me if I'm wrong on that one.

How are the names rendered in the original Japanese, anyway? There are a lot of those terminal consonants that Japanese does not seem keen on.

Heruku, Kuresu, Ediru, Rafaedo, Mikarosu, etc.

So the slightly European-like names are just the translator's quirky interpretation, huh. It's way more obvious from this transliteration that the brothers are supposed to be named something like "Herk" and "Kuleas."

No that's just how Japanese works, don't worry the manga is literally named Helck, in Roman letters

Or maybe he didn't screw up because it's just meant to be a fun twisting of the reference and Helck and Cless are not literally meant to be Heracles. If they were then Helck's name would have to be spelled He Ra Ku in katakana instead of He Ru Ku.

Unrelated, but I absolutely love how Hyura rips Edil apart verbally before ripping him apart physically. She is harsh as hell but very accurate in her criticism.
