For me, the first episode of this series was really appealing because they don’t look like high school students, which made me even more curious to keep watching and the ridiculous scenes had me laughing right from the beginning.

Episode one is very hilarious. The baby even goes to pee and electrocutes Oga. It also explains how the baby shows up and his powers, while Oga’s friend clearly struggles to believe a word he says.

Episode Context

Beelzebub wastes no time establishing its identity: a delinquent battle comedy with a supernatural hook that hits hard and fast. The premiere drops viewers into the chaos of Ishiyama High, a school overflowing with thugs and brawlers, and introduces Tatsumi Oga as the toughest among them. The tone is loud, irreverent, and unapologetically absurd, expect over-the-top fights punctuated by sharp comedic timing. The central gag of a hardened delinquent suddenly saddled with a mysterious baby lands immediately and gives the episode a surprisingly energetic dynamic. Takayuki Furuichi provides solid comedic support, while the appearance of the enigmatic Hildegarde hints at deeper supernatural stakes ahead. The pacing is brisk, the humor is physical and situational, and the animation from Pierrot Plus delivers punchy action sequences that set the bar for what's to come.
