Devils and Realist

Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old William Twining takes pride in his lineage as well as his devotion to modern science. When he learns that his family has gone bankrupt, the pompous noble is faced with the reality that he can no longer afford his tuition or the lifestyle he is accustomed to. In a desperate search for valuables in his manor, William discovers a hidden room and accidentally summons the arrogant demon Dantalion, the Grand Duke of Hell. Apparently, Lucifer—the ruler of Hell—has fallen into a deep slumber. In his absence, only the human "Elector" has power to select a temporary successor, which is the cause of tension among demonkind. Although told that he is the direct descendant of King Solomon and has unshakable authority in the underworld, William refuses to believe it. While denying the existence of magic and the supernatural altogether, the defiant realist fails to recognize that he is at the center of the ongoing battle between Heaven and Hell.

Overall, the show is fine. I can't really tackle more on the religious aspects presented here, but it's kind of scary that they're making tweaks to biblical stories. I can't say whether it's good or bad, as we all have our own personal beliefs. But I know it affects us differently.
This is ridiculous! That's all I can say. Visiting hell and that ring? I might need to go to the confession room right now.
I like what William is doing here. It's a nice segue for his character, and it's entertaining to watch. But with more characters being introduced, I don't know what else they can show with only a few episodes left.
Hmmm, nice backstory and action. So far, this has had better action scenes. William being the realist that he is made that scene while he was sleeping funny to me. Sometimes, it's the small details that makes an impact.
OOhhhkay an angel punching and having fun. It appears it can bully others. Hopefully, it's just part of a greater cause. Good luck with that.
This episode has a bit more energy, especially in the parts that showcase the characters' abilities and where they rank among the other members in Hell. Other than that, nothing really major happening yet.
I like the air of mystery here. It's just a consistently fine episode to watch. New characters have been introduced, but they don't really build much hype.
This one has elements of good humor. It's not creatively comedic, but it still manages to be entertaining. Like the previous episode, the story feels familiar. It is simply enjoyable to watch, much like listening to a good joke.
Remember who you are!.... that was enough? Really?!. Half episode was flashbacks (things that could have been shown before) and the climas lasted for less than 5 minutes. So sad
It so sad that it took so much time to see something much more worth watching. The music, tension and serious ambiance was actually really good this chapter
The comedy aspect of the anime was one of the worst parts. Weak and uneffective, but this chapter was actually genuenly fun! Entertaining and even if some might think it is a filler episode, I really didnt care. I enjoyed it
Ok it took the show 2/3 of the episodes to get interesting but it got there. The incorporation of angels was certainly an upgrade.
This one is nice, but the story is overused. The scenes seem like they were taken from different love story movies we've all seen before.
Ohhkay. This feels like they're introducing all the spiritual figures, both supernatural beings and mortal practitioners. I believe the young priest is introduced poorly. It would have worked better if he had been a sidekick of an older exorcist priest. I mean, come on, this feels like they just read a story online based on the Bible without doing any deeper research, then drew whatever came to mind.
This part, for me, is neither good nor bad. It feels like they're trying to get somewhere, but they need to push it further. They chose such a broad plot, so I think it deserves a more brilliant exploration.
I think this was the best episode so far. Twinning was not unbearable as previous episodes and I felt tension for the first time
The "realist" gag of the show is just nonsense, not important enough to be included in the title. I am getting tired of "he is made of atoms" as a way to explain things... with that being said, the rest of the episode was ok, I dont like Kevin as a character, but it was nice to see some development in the relation between Twinning and the other demons.
This episode had some interesting moments. The way they defeated the newly introduced demon was... fast and easy. But still. The comedy part is not their strenght, they should focus more on more serious moments like in this episode
Nothing happens in this chapter. We are shortly introduced to a couple of characters on the side but the main plot for the chapter was... nothing.
I think this was the first episode with some interesting side story. Showing a different type of demon with their background was nice, super cliché but nice. The main plot didn't move an inch
