About The Devil is a Part-Timer!

Meet The Devil is a Part-Timer! (はたらく魔王さま!), a comedy, fantasy and romance anime by WHITE FOX (2013). Here is the premise in a nutshell. At its core: Devil King Sadao is only one step away from conquering the world when he is beaten by Hero Emilia and compelled to drift to the other world: modern-day Tokyo. As "conquering the world" are the only skills the Devil King possesses—and are obviously unnecessary in his new situation—he has to work as a freeter to pay for his living expenses!

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Satan Jacob (Ryouta Oosaka) and Emilia Justina (Youko Hikasa) are two of the characters you will meet early.

Think of it as a pick for viewers who want something light between heavier series. At 13 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by WHITE FOX, so the studio's house style defines how The Devil is a Part-Timer! looks and moves on screen. The comedy focus matters here: timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. At 7.5/10 it earns a solid reception, a safe pick for fans of the genre. Voice casting, including Ryouta Oosaka as Satan Jacob, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. Released in 2013, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
