Dropkick on My Devil!

About Dropkick on My Devil!

Dropkick on My Devil! (邪神ちゃんドロップキック) arrives as a comedy anime by Nomad (2018), and the premise is easy to summarize. At its core: The demon Jashin-chan has been summoned to Earth by Yurine Hanazono, a girl with a knack for the occult. Unfortunately, Yurine does not actually know how to send Jashin-chan back to Hell.

As things develop, now stuck on Earth, she must live at Yurine's apartment as her familiar. The only way for Jashin-chan to return would be to kill her summoner, but this is easier said than done for the incompetent demon. Since Jashin-chan is immortal and can regenerate her body, Yurine does not hold back in attacking her with a range of weapons, punishing her in gruesome manners for her evil schemes.

With comedy at the core, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Aina Suzuki as Jashin-chan and Nichika Oomori as Yurine Hanazono. Think of it as a pick for viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 11 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
