Ya. I just finished watching ep 2. I am gonna drop this series.

I thought it was going to be alright when they introduced the chick.. but now they're playing 'hot mom' jokes.

Plus guys having nosebleeds when they look at another guy is not cool.

Too bad though, the story seems interesting enough except for all the yaoi jokes.

So if you're a girl or macer.. you might enjoy this series.

Interesting plot of him being a king of another world.. but too much yaoi jokes kills it.

yea...kaiser's being turned on by all the yaoi-ness and couldnt handle it anymore

but the anime seems pretty good (besides the yaoil/milf, which adds a relief of comedy i might say)

So yeah, maybe I'm the only one following this series... I can't help it. The yaoiness doesn't really bug me, since it's actually shounen-ainess (the story does, after all, have a plot that's aiming for something besides sex). Once I've watched enough of it to review, I'll post one.

I'm enjoying the show... I like the twist...

We've got the usual guy gets sucked into an alternate dimension so that he can be the hero... or in this case, the king... but the twist on this is awesome! He gets to be the hero/king for an evil empire... I love it!

Any show that reverses the roles of protagonist and antagonist in its respect to good vs. evil is a good one in my book. I mean, why can't the evil guys be the protagonists? why can't the good guys be the antagonists? ... Lovin' it.

And it's got lines like:
"There a black hole in the toliet?"!!! It's fun.

heh, this show is like a super cheap version of jounni kokki. i find it quite funny though and i also find the "cheapness" amusing

main character:"this is a theme park.... a dream..gota be one of those."
body guard guy *gives a 6.5 second fairy tale explanation*
main character:"i get it now"

its all good, so far Very Happy

I like this one it gives me a laugh and now that GunGrave is gone Sad

I have to fill that slot with something. The gay jokes don't bother me much and I find the one guy funny I guess he's the butler?

Hmm. I like the yaoi-ness in the story. ^^ Which means more potential doujinshis for me to read! This anime seems to have a pretty interesting plot-line to follow. The author twisted the usual story-line and put a demon as the main character. Moreover, it is novel-based and not manga-based. Japanese novels have a heavier amount of literary usage and the authors are usually more witty with their plot. So I am expecting quite a lot from this anime too. ^^

When I said I dropped this series, I lied.

There hasn't been too much to watch lately so I've kept up with the show. Although I don't like the yaoi jokes they love to pack into this series, the story is still interesting and unique so I shall stick around watching unless something drastic happens.
