heyjudy 's review for:
The Devil Is a Part-Timer, Vol. 1 (manga)
by Satoshi Wagahara, Akio Hiiragi
~2.5-3/5
I’ve watched the anime of this, and honestly… it was okay. But I didn’t love it. I thought I would give the manga a shot, and I’m not really sold with this either.
I’m not fully sure why, but something about the characters and the story… They just don’t stand out to me, it doesn’t bring me in. Sadly, I just don’t think this series is for me.
The whole devil coming into the human world and working in a fast food joint sounds great, and honestly I think it is a fun concept in the series. There’s potential with the devil and his assistant characters. The hero is an interesting character, and I’m intrigued by the romance between her and the devil (which is clearly going to develop, of course). I don’t really care for Chiho, in either version. She just annoys me.
It might also be that the storyline here is pretty much the exact same as in the first few episodes of the anime, so I’ve already seen it.
The artwork is a little different. It’s similar, but somehow softer here, less sharp, and the characters (especially the devil) looks younger here. I kind of like it here more, actually.
I wanted to like this, I really did. But I don’t think I’ll be reading more.
