Synopsis
Dreaming of becoming a hero and vanquishing the Demon King, Raul Chaser enters the Hero Training Program in pursuit of his ambition. However, when the Demon King is defeated and peace returns to the world, the Hero Training Program is suspended indefinitely, making it impossible for anyone to become a hero. Two years later, Raul reluctantly works at a small electronics store called Magic Shop Leon. Though the former hero-in-training is plagued by the mundanity of working in retail, everything changes with the arrival of a new hire. Appearing at first to be just a boy with good looks, "he" turns out to be a female demon by the name of Fino Bloodstone. She is not just any old demon either—Raul's new coworker is in fact the daughter of the late Demon King! Handed the responsibility of training this eccentric new employee, Raul soon finds his life becoming livelier than it ever was before.

macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 12It's the action and conclusion. Overall, it's fine. Its strong points are the relatable scenes of working in a shop and the great animation. As for the hero-villain plot, it's pretty predictable, so you'll likely know how it ends for Raul and Phino. Still, I enjoyed most of it, especially the slice-of-life episodes.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 11This part is hilarious, but it feels rushed. One good point is their rationale for why they need a Demon Lord. It's simple, but it makes sense, and the principle applies to different contexts. For instance, this overused saying "we need war so people can see the value of peace and life." At first, it reads twisted, eventually, it makes some sense.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 10Okay, after all those episodes, it's finally here - the main dish. The plot is simple, but it works just fine for me. I think this series just has a nice style of narration that makes it enjoyable to watch until the end.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 9This one had at least a little mystery, like something serious was finally going to happen in the main plot, or so I thought.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 8Phino's laugh is infectious. I loved it and enjoyed imitating it. This scene turned out well because I found myself smiling while watching it.
syracuse★★★☆☆Animemacsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 7This episode reminds me of Fullmetal Alchemist. It's getting close to the ending, and I can't help but feel like the story is still stuck in transition. Is this heading toward Raul becoming a hero, or is the real point about true-to-life experiences working in a shop. I don't think the series has fully figured that out yet.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 6The declaration of war was pretty cringe, and the Sales Manager had the right reaction. This time, they expanded the story beyond the shop, which was a nice change of pace.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 5The store's design is beautiful and well-organized. It looks like it was modeled after a real retail store. I also liked how this episode touched on sales, grand openings, and business competition.
macsher1saurus★★★★☆VerifiedEP 4This time, they're actually teaching about bagging, branding, and workplace code of conduct. At least it's not all just stimulation imagery. They're laying foundation for the story by exploring on what it's really like to work in a shop.
