(L) Maoujou de Oyasumi (Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle)

[stray]

I just watched ep 1 on a whim but holy crap its super relatable for us insomniacs.

[Chosen_Hero]

Bruh, she murdered that one monster just to make bed sheets... WTF?

[Marcus H.]

Here's the full version of "Gimmme!" by ORESAMA.

[Decel]

Haven't listened to Oresama in a while, so I initially thought it was Daoko at first until I saw the credit on the ED.

I may give ep 2 a try; while ep 1 was cute, I feel that the schtick will get old fast.

[The Green One]

The demons spend another week wondering what kind of crazy Princess they've grabbed. So obsessed with soft bedding that not even being poisoned to death wakes her up. That's true dedication. Poor Demon Monk having to resurrect the hordes of Ghost Shrouds the Princess slaughters. Poor Hero falls prey to the maze level. You should of bought the strategy guide.

Episode 2 was cute... I can still entirely relate to doing crazy things in the name of a good night's sleep but at the same time I'm not sure how its going to hold up for an entire season.

Somehow I imagine the heroes are going to be wandering around for a long, long time.

i'm a little mixed feelings here, while i do love the manga and the anime is not "really bad" and i would say is "fine", it's still feel a little rushed and some stuffs are out of order which would make some stuffs a little confuse specially for the hero group

some little comparation:

Spoiler for little changes:

it's not proper explained but is the princess the reason they are having troubles, since they seens to not proper follow the manga and make some small changes.
the hero group don't appear until a little more later, and it's explainned first why which they are having a really hard time to rescue her and the reason, obivous is the princess herself, for exemple the shield was supposed to be a "reward for the hero", to help him save her, because the demon lord is a "fair guy" and want the hero to get strong enought for then to have a "fair awesome battle" then he is the one trying to provide the hero with "all the magical stuffs" and some "fair battles" but the princess keep being the one to hijack all the attempts because she keep stealing all the stuffs for her own sake of sleep, making the hero "fail and take more time than it was supposed to come to rescue her.

but still a lot fun see her doing all those crazy stuff for the sake of "sleep" even if it's means "death", well she will be just ressurected later then no problem , well but don't worry she will improve as the time goes and start to "die less" as she "level up"

[The Green One]

It'll boil down to if you find the Princess's shenanigans funny or not. The series starts out episodic but more of a story develops. Another good thing about the series in my opinion is the character development. Right now there hasn't been much as we're still in the "introduce everybody" stage.

[serenade_beta]

We're supposed to care about any of the other characters? I thought it was just an anime about gazing at a cute anime girl.

[The Green One]

I could answer but that would require spoilers and the mods would beat me with a raw trout. So I'll just say "Yes."

[FlareKnight]

I'll admit it does feel like you aren't supposed to care about anyone and just enjoy watching a cute girl walk around and then fall asleep. The Princess herself isn't that likable and I kind of just feel pity for everyone around her .

The captors are having a tough time, but they kind of signed themselves up for that via kidnapping so that's mostly ok. The Kingdom and heroes struggling to try and retrieve someone who has basically forgotten they exist are truly worthy of sympathy.

Does feel like this won't hold up long for me. The comedy isn't bad. But after a couple episodes it kind of feels like it has done all it can do with the premise.

[Blueknight78]

yeah while overal the anime is the "how to sleep tonight", or monster of the week format, later you start to get more "character development for a lot of characters, most of the characters over time get they own space and you gonna feel bad for then evern more while the princess just keep getting "worst" or maybe i can say "better" at deal with them , and the plot "progress", but sure the focus ins about a "cute girl", but crazy and reckless, not doing cut things but giving despair and fear to everyone around her

[The Green One]

Part of the charm is as they actually develop the characters that aren't the Princess and you learn more about them you actually start to care about them unlike before. There's also how the Princess and the Demons interact with each other as they get more familiar with each other. I don't know how far the anime is going to get but give it a chance. There's much more meat to it then what you've seen so far.

[Kamijou Touma IB]

I love this show and I was surprised during episode 2 because a cat appears and here comes Arai Satomi. I didn't knew she was even in the show.

More like watching the cutest little psychopath in fiction.

QFT !

[The Green One]

Another fun episode as the weekly torment of the Demons continues as this time the Princess's search for sleep leads to funny misunderstandings as the Demons think she's propositioning them for sexy times and their amusing reactions to it. Princess finds the Infinity +1 Sword and Grimoire? Nope still doesn't care, all is for the sleep.

3 episodes in and we're still fairly episodic in regards to it as the Demon still don't know what to make of the bizarre Princess. We'll have to see how the rest of it goes, but for new viewers I imagine it's going to be hard to maintain interest any further unless they already love watching the Princess terrorize her helpless captors.

[kari-no-sugata II]

This is definitely a story with more than one joke and more than layer but it's still relatively simple.

Basically, if you don't enjoy the princess's antics then it'd be pretty much impossible to enjoy the series. While I can understand some being concerned that the jokes could get old with such a simple setting, they never got old for me.

[stray]

For now its still both relatable and adorable. Grimoire-kun seemed like he really wanted to bail, though.

[The Green One]

Chibi Princess was quite cute this week, all the demons thought so as well. Quite a difference from the homicidal material harvesting maniac from early in the episode.
