Yusibu is a decent ecchi anime that has many fantasy elements. At its core, Yusibu relies on the formula of Beverly Hillbillies and takes a person from a faraway place with different customs and understandings and puts them in a modern setting where hilarity ensues. Make the modern setting a fantasy world where magic equals the technology you see in the real world and have the strange newcomer be the daughter of the demon lord, sprinkle in some ecchi for some added spice and you have yourself a show. That said, Yusibu is not a bad show, and I would even call it a great ...

Yuusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shuushoku wo Ketsui Shimashita (Geez what a long name) Is about a guy named Raul which was supposedly a hero. He lost his job as a hero as the demon king died, so what did Raul do? Well he found a job at a electronic shop of course, and of course the daughter of the dead demon king shows up.

Story : 7
There wasnt really some super plot going on, mostly comedy and some romance, you might catch a glimps of some action aswell, but just your usual romcom

Art : 9
The art was great! The characters looks awesome, lots ...

I started this show under the premise of it being similar to The Devil's a Part-Timer. However, what I got was quite the opposite.

Story: MC was a hero on his way to defeat the devil king, but the devil king was defeated before he could do it. A new era of peace has begun and now he is working at a dead end job. Then new employee comes in and oh yay it is the devil king's daughter. Then blah blah blah, shoot me, blah blah blah. And no one knows what happens.

Art: Fair, nothing great, contains unnecessary nudity with nothing to redeem it.

Yes i know this is relax series anime on hero and demon king story ... but there is a limit on how the author make the story to be funny... you ( auther ) must consider some logic in presenting the plotting or story line to be funny For example, using a hair dryer to beat down a high class demon , or use a speaker to knock down a high class demon.... pls la....dont spoil the anime cause the way you (author) make thestory seems ...sorry not seems but exactly a small child anime and not a standart of teen or even ...

Shall we take a trip down the memory lane? The reason why I watch anime must have been started by watching Gundam Seed back in 2004, which I realized that anime is not just something similar to Scooby-Doo or Spongebob, but anime tells a story, unlike cartoons.

Why I watch anime since 2004 is not for the art, the OSTs, the mainstream-ness, the fanservice [okay I get there are those who get turned-on by 2D girls but still, reality-check], well, think of whatever positive notion or in worse cases, "stigma" of anime has, but I watch anime for the plot and characters.

I always just shrug those ...

This.... this was just bad.

Bland, unimaginative, with uninspired characters.... imagine if someone took "Wagnaria" or "Hataraki Maou-sama" and took all the humor and life out of it. It is a very depressing anime about how some people gave up on their dreams, failed to find their place in life, landed at odd job in retail stores, and then spent 12 episodes convincing themselves that this is how the things should be. Well, at least that's the way this anime feels. It is SUPPOSED to be a comedy about ex-hero and Daughter of ex-maou (i.e. "demon lord") working together in a retail store. However, it ...

I Couldn’t Become a Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job.

Yep, that’s the English name for the bullet train sized Japanese name of the anime I’m reviewing right now right up there in the blog post title. Geez, what a mouthful.

After waiting two whole years to hear some news on whether ‘The Devil Is A Part-Timer’ (highly recommended) would get a second season or not, I finally went crazy and decided to go on a hunt for similar anime. Luckily, it was pretty much just 5 second Google search and around 10 seconds of me reading the synopsis on MyAnimeList about this anime, ...

Preliminary (7/12 eps)

This anime is one of those things i hate/love, good concept but bad execution and this one falls into the hate category, sometimes concepts this ridicule can turn out great, i would have never imagined a story about warriors having to find a job at a convenience store after the war ended in a fantasy world with a city that reminds me of paris after the Haussmann's renovation.

But it just ended being a ecci with no story, lack of character development and unnecessary amount of "sexy shots".

And one last thing about it, maybe this happened because i watched it on my phone instead ...

This show is okish. The characters live on a world where the Demon Lord has been killed by some random hero, and the Main character is now working on a shop until the daughter of the former demon lord start working there and there a bigger shop appears and they have to survive that... with boobs... tons of boobs.

Sometimes funny, tons of fan service, some mediocre characters, nothing outstanding on this anime, I wouldn't say it's a bad show but, deffinetly not a good one by any means, I laugh sometimes it was enjoyable at some degree, I was expecting worst from this one ...

I really adore this show to be honest.

I don't know what it is that makes me love this so much. But i finished this wanting a ton more.

Favorite character by far is the main attraction "Fino" She is really fun to have on screen and i wish that we got more of her.

I really love it when she sexual stuff happens to her and she get's embarrassed or when she is just completely clueless.

Only problem i have is near the end
~~SPOILERS~~
I wish she did become the new Demon lord. I imagine it would be a lot better and that she could even open ...

-TL;DR REVIEWS-

Tl;dr - This anime sucks. Don't bother watching it. Watch "Hataraku" instead.

[STORY - 6] - The protagonist is a hero who has reluctantly become a simple cashier at Reon's due to the lack of necessity for heroes which stems from the defeat of the demon lord.

Surprisingly~, the demon lord's heir soon joins the Reon's team and must adapt to generic human life.

Rising action and the 'serious' tone begins at episode 8.

This is one of those late bloomer type of anime, where the first half of the season is so so, then on the second half you'd be whining "Hurry up i need the next episode NOW!". The world in which the anime takes place is really nice and original, being mana powered and all. I don't actually like the art, but its pretty good because of everything else.

This must be the type of anime you can call: Cliche

The begin was quite a good start, trainee heroes, destined to fight the demon lord and POOF, the demon lord is dead

Now the hero works other job to support his own life but doesn't feels right because that's not what he wants, but when his friends ask, he just make that uncomfortable face like of he talks it out, he's gonna die

Etc, etc, the story now develops to how he has to take care of the demon lord's daughter and deal with her and work his job as the same time because that girl is ...

Ok, lets get this out of the way. There is 1 spoiler that I will say right now, and that is also the biggest disappointment in the anime, the cliche happens. Think of it, demon lords daughter comes to the human world, and the dad is, at least in this show, dead. From episode 1 I saw this coming, and was hoping I was wrong, and up till then, I thought I was. Up till the end of episode 8 I was thinking that maybe i was wrong and the cliche wasn't going to happen, but than it happened... than episode 9 came around, and ...

Well the story is quite normal fantasy-based but with its own twist. At least I haven't seen any other anime where the hero and the daughter of deceased demon lord work together in a magical general store.

Art-style is pleasing and I didn't find any half-assed scenes.

Sound quality is nice. Nothing outstanding but nothing bad either.

Small spoiler ahead!!

Characters have some stereotypes included for example the shop manager is by nature exactly the same as in Ika musume (nice all the time but when triggered powerful enough to destroy any foe). The character development is also there which is always a plus.

Enjoyment suffers from too many bouncing/nude ...

Yūsha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shūshoku o Ketsui Shimashita, or I Couldn’t Become a Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job, or commonly shortened to Yu-Sibu is another Fall 2013 comedy anime.

Now, Yu-Sibu is all about a protagonist named Raul Chaser (Or, Rauru Cheisa, if you’re a direct translation kinda fan) who grew up wanting to be a hero and kill the Demon Lord. When our anime begins he is in the final days of his Hero Training, and is one of the best in his class, but when someone else kills the Demon Lord, all of the Heroes, adventure supply ...

Have you ever seen tower of druaga, well this anime is what happens, when you can't become the hero and turn to get a job at what......a store.

Some dragon girl that can turn back and forth from a dragon, also gets a job at a store from what was it daddy issues or something ( don't remember haven't seen this in a while and the anime wasn't really worth remembering that much). There is some light humor and this anime is very little like devil is a part timer, where the female they knew comes to the main character's store.

In the same vein as "The Devil is a Part-Time," Yusibu is an entertaining nigh slice of life feel-good comedy about working retail in a fantasy world. Heroes and Demon Lords are things of the past, and what was once dreams must now be redirected toward a stable income.

Most of the series is comedic. It has some cute ways of incorporating magic with everyday household appliances, but at the end of the day, it's about Raul, a guy who gave up being a hero, and Fino, the daughter of the Demon Lord, working together to serve happiness and customer service.

Fino is so adorable.
So. Stinking. Adorable.

I enjoyed the premise of a world where heroes are no longer needed. A world hit by recession and ex-heroes and demons have to face the economic realities of a post-war fantasy world. I really enjoyed the worldbuilding where modern (magical) appliances have a finite amount of storage and must be recharged each day. Even the Ecchi scenes were tastefully executed.

I cannot recommend for the following reasons:

Incel Trainer: episode 3 sees a dirty ojiisan enter the store and touch up a girls butt. The main character white knights for her and tells her it is ok to say no. The girl, a victim of workplace ...
