| I remember the one-shot being really popular for this. So it got serialized really fast. This was a really fun start. |

| I think I'm going to love this one |
| I think we now know which of this batch is going to be sticking around! So funny and never a dull page! |
| Funny to see something like this in the weekly Jump. Alright start. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| hmm, i don't see this one surviving too long. |

| I honestly prefer how things were paced in the one-shot, but I guess the first chapter had to rush to get everything down, in typical Weekly Shōnen Jump fashion. The first chapter is basically a 1:1 remake of the one-shot, with some minor differences. The first difference is that the duo's relationship in the manga definitely feels more likely to become romantic in the future than in the one-shot. Of course, they still feel like siblings, but this could change. I wouldn't welcome that, unless it's executed extremely well. The second difference is Asuka. It's not very noticeable, but she is more blushy and slightly less of a doofus. I honestly slightly prefer the one-shot version of her so far, but I'm sure she will get more characterization in the serialization so it's a complete non-issue. I thought the one-shot was solid. It wasn't anything groundbreaking, but it was a serviceable premise with serviceable characters and a serviceable level of fun and wholesomeness. I remember wondering how this manga would continue being about an ex-Hero Girl and ex-Demon Lord, since the entire point of the series is that they want to grow out of these roles into a more normal life. Does the series has any legs to go places? After reading the first chapter, I still have this question, which makes me sort of worried; a monster-of-the-week format would be a bit of a cop-out. I'm sure the mangaka has something cooked up, though. Overall, this is a solid start to a solid-looking series. It will be fun, especially since we don't have many other series like it in Shōnen Jump; I'll probably be reading it every week just because why not. Hopefully it becomes something more though. A final note: The Demon Lord says that he's going to end the world when Jump stops being published, and he's reading a WSJ isue with the exact same lead cover page as the LCP of this week's Jump issue. I guess if this gets axed, Mr. Demon Lord will end the world right away lol |

| THIS IS GOATED!!! I LOVE the humor, female character designs are adorable. It's like a combination of someone hertz and the mage next door! Loving the comedic series WSJ has been bringing through recently. |
