Maou no Musume wa Yasashisugiru!!

Demon King Ahriman has a problem: his daughter, Dou, loves everyone! Consequently, Ahriman had to halt his invasion of the world in the worry that his daughter's behavior is not one befitting someone of her kind. She loves making friends, helping others, and bringing happiness to all creatures including their enemies, the humans.

Ahriman, however, congratulates Dou for her good deeds instead of scolding her. With the help of his aide Jahy, who is assigned as Dou's master, the two try to get rid of her kindhearted nature—so that the Demon King's daughter goes from a cute, adorable, and nice little girl to an inhuman, cruel, and twisted little demon.

I first thought this was a kid's show. I wasn't wrong about that - but that wasn't the entire premise either. Much of the show IS targeted towards children, with simple moral lessons in kindness and acceptance, but at moments, it hits hard in my adult feels. And that's when it hit me: Maou no Musume is an anime for the entire family. If you have kids at home, this show is a good way to spend time together.

No, this show won't go into existential metaphysics of being, nor will it try to warn of the dangers of a post-capitalistic cyber future. It deals with ... simple things, while we follow an adorable MC. Think Spy x Family minus the whole cold war plot.

Maou no Musume aims to please. It puts a smile on your face and sometimes a tear in your eyes. And sometimes that's all we need.

My doctor said I have diabetes because my blood glucose was high, I want to blame this anime because it is way too sweet.

Maou no Musume wa Yasashisugiru is by no means a novelty in anime and manga, stories about babysitting are common, but an anime like this is always a blessing to the world, every time it airs an angel grows its wings, and boy, another angel grows its wings this season.

The story is simple, it follows Jahy babysitting Dou, the daughter of the Demon King, and training her to become a vicious demon.

But Dou is kind, extremely so, Dou is kind to people, ... Dou is kind to demons, Dou is kind to animals, Dou is kind to everybody.

Even when Dou is a demon, Dou is still kind.

Even when Jahy and the Demon King papa hope Dou will be evil, Dou is kind.

Even when people act mean to Dou,Dou is kind.

Even when the world and people around Dou is irredeemable ,Dou is a righteous demon.

When even the meanest of the mean see Dou, they cannot help but become righteous as well.

Such a simple story, yet it tickles my heart in all the right ways, I am a grown man and I am not ashamed to admit that I shed a few tears of joy while watching this kids show.

Everything about this anime is comfort upon comfort, from the OST to the animation and art style, zero complaints from me.

It is also a great family watch, if you have a sister or brother you should watch this together with them, at the right moment it might remind you of their childhood, that is how good this anime is.

Misaki Kuno is still the GOAT when it comes to voicing a cute character, she has not missed, and this anime does not take that title from her.

Overall, highly recommended if you have younger siblings, this is a good family watch, also recommended for people who are weary or feeling down and tired with everything that has been going on, Dou might be able to cheer you up.

Are you looking for a comfortable, wholesome show with good vibes? Well, this is the perfect anime for you. The protagonist Doux is simply the daughter of the Demon King's daughter, and she is simply too kind, as the title states. The show mostly is about how Doux is very kind with everyone she interacts with, and that includes humans. Which makes for a very heartwarming anime.

One interesting thing to note is that the series does not present demons in a good light. This makes it interesting because Doux's nature clashes with what demons are. Which adds a bit of intrigue if Doux will influence ... Demons at some point.

Though it should be mentioned that if you are looking for a show with more substance to it, you won't find it here. But if you are looking for a feel-good, wholesome anime, then this is the one you ought to try.
