This played out almost exactly as I expected. I thought romance would be the key to bring Fino back though, not an invoice... they really dropped the ball here. And let's not mention the reused animation and the QUALITY. This final could have been a lot better.
This really was a poor man's Maou-sama, but it wasn't all that bad. I found it reasonably entertaining, and it had a selling point other shows didn't have: the cutest girl of the year. This series worth watching for Fino alone if you're into moe. She was criminally cute.

I think the series is okay. It score points for wrapping up the story, though somewhat predictable, which is quite a rare thing these days. It also score points for the generous helping of fanservice (if you are into it). It misses out on the usual harem antics (which may or may not score points).
Other than that, it's quite bland and forgettable. |

Be fair, they're only just starting to realize they care about each other. It'd be a little bit of a jump to passionate declarations.
I think the 'I don't know what I'd do without you' was suitable, myself. And the repeating the customer service lines were funny.

here my concers about this anime - basically what i liked was the girls and the sub manager, garbage raul can go to hell and maybe after reicarnate learn to be a true man - my favorite girls was obvious fino lam and lorien, is not too much common i like the emotionless characters but her showed some little diferences from a full clichê type of character like her who make me really like her, lam was really a good and funny loli character who actually not in love with garbage(this harem was almost like not a harem or almost remembered me nyaruko, where the real romance is only mahiro and nyaruko, them here is garbage with fino, and we have only 2 others girls who also have feelings for him. - the harem for me was more sarah harem with girls and guy than garbage and she even collected a new one for her personal harem - the character who i most disliked is tooo obvious who i gonna call the second who is all(i really dont like too much tsunderes characters) - the plot of this series reminder me of Shining Hearts Shiawase no Pan, this anime like the other is basically to make us thing who "working" can be so awesome as be hero and you dont need a shield and sword or magic to be awesome and just embrace your work and love it can make you a hero. for the girls Last edited by relentlessflame; 2013-12-21 at 23:55.

Demon Lord
Well, I have to say I love a series when it takes a ridiculous premise, working at a magic shop with the daughter of the demon lord, and make it into a series. This reminded me of Rio - Rainbow Gate in the ridiculous premise ( guilty pleasure). However, the whole demon lord daughter becoming the next Demon Lord subplot was given to us too late like in episode 10 I believe. Changed the mood of the entire series into something less ridiculous and very below average ending. I wished the creators just focused on the same premise in the first 9 episodes. The ending could have been more on the focus of Fino completing the big order or some other issue with the store itself than the Demon Lord subplot. Have the story focus on competing with their rival and/or having them win the store wars or something along those lines than the fight scene with Raul and Fino. Oh well, I would rate this series So-So. I give credit for the ridiculousness for the first 9 episodes and a big negative for the remaining ones.

I actually like it better than they didn't use the cliché power of love. It makes sense that he used something from her time as an employee as a reminder to bring her back to her sense, which would be the first order she ever took which likely resonates far more than the romantic hints which didn't appear until much later in the series. Rather their friendship as struggling employees and Fino learning the ropes was what occupied most of the series.
