About Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer

Looking for background on Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer (惑星のさみだれ)? This action, comedy and drama series by NAZ and Nippon Animation (2022) starts out like this. The setup: One day, unremarkable college learner Yuuhi Amamiya runs into a talking lizard who asks for his help saving Earth from a crisis. Before he can refuse, Yuuhi is turned into a member of the Beast Knights and given a ring that gives him the psychic power “domain control.” He is then immediately attacked by a foe!

Next up: Just as all seems lost, he’s saved by the girl next door, Samidare. It turns out Samidare isn’t really a savior of any kind… she’s actually a demon lord who wants to conquer Earth! Drawn to her absurd strength and evil charms, Yuuhi becomes her devoted servant and acts to support her wicked schemes.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Samidare Asahina (Naomi Oozora) and Yuuhi Amamiya (Junya Enoki) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. The run is 24 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
