The Misfit of Demon King Academy (2020)

In an era lost to time, a man existed, feared as the demon lord, Anos Voldigoad. His wrath razed human kingdoms, turned the sacred spirit forests to cinders and even claimed the lives of Gods. Yet, even a demon lord can grow weary of the ceaseless carnage. Striving for a world free of war, he proposes a drastic solution to the heroes who dared to parley with him. He asks them to end his life, divide the world into four distinct realms - human, demon, spirit, and divine - and seal their gates for a millennium. His hope? That a thousand years would be enough to dissolve the deep-seated animosity between demons and humans. Fast forward 2000 years, the indomitable demon king is reborn into an era of tranquility, drastically different from his time. Magic users now hone their skills in academies and the world seems to hum with peace, a stark contrast to the war-torn landscape he once ruled. Retaining his formidable power and his vivid memories of the past, Anos emerges as an extraordinary student in the academy. However, this peaceful era isn't as it appears. Anos senses a sinister undercurrent beneath the calm facade. Now, in addition to navigating the perplexing dynamics of academy life, Anos embarks on a quest to investigate this unsettling disparity. The Misfit of Demon King Academy is a riveting saga that explores the journey of a demon king seeking peace in an unfamiliar world, while unraveling the mysteries of a seemingly peaceful era. With each passing episode, viewers are plunged deeper into a world where the lines between good and evil blur, and the past and present collide in unexpected ways.
