Maou ~ Sou da, Yuusha wo Yome ni shiyou ~

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

In this world, there existed a demon king. Inside one of the two major nations, the king of the Athena Empire invited a hero to go subjugate the demon king.

Sensing the movement of the hero’s party, the demon king got a little angry.

Even though I’m diligently managing my country, why do I have to be subjugated? I don’t understand the reasoning.

And also I got a question for the Hero and his party. Why is the hero the commander for the Athena royal army? Why didn’t the top brass come? And also why is everyone, other than the hero, female? is it a harem? – So absurd.

And so, the demon king made a decision.

If the hero comes, I’m going to harass the heck out of him –

For the gallant hero headed to subjugate the demon king, and the dissatisfied demon king who lied in wait for the hero, soon their fated (love) will begin.

The translation is well done, the characters, with what little has been given, are fleshed out and interesting.

Though the 'demons' seem to be just another race of humans, except they're dark mages rather than light mages.

Five stars because there isn't enough written to give a more precise rating. I look forward to reading more.

Err, the tags say "shōnen" but I'm pretty sure that this is a shōjo novel.

... more>>
Spoiler

The one getting genderbent is the Hero. Even though the story is told in 3rd person, it's pretty clear that you are supposed to read it from the Hero's POV.

As a straight male I don't like the idea of turning into a cute girl and eventually fall in love with another guy. Especially a sadistic type ikemen. Like, wtf.

The Hero in v2c1 also rejects the Demon King but it is clear to me that she'll eventually fall in love. The novel has a romance tag after all.

When I started reading, I expected the Maō to turn into a Demon Queen. Well, there's none of that here.

[collapse]

The translation is machine based as far as I can tell (and as far as I've read), but it has been decently edited and is easily readable.

If, after reading this review, you still feel like you would enjoy this novel, then by all means read it. I'm sure that it is deserving of the rating it has here on NU, but it's just not for me. <<less

I don't even know why people are complaining about "this too unrealistic" and "that no explanation"

Do you even know how to read novels? Look at the chapter count. Its incredibly clear that this is a short story. Plus, its so blatant that this story is one full of cuteness and fluffiness, why are you expecting such a story to have a flushed out plot? The main selling point of this story is its cuteness and romance. If you really can't tell, then you're actually s*upid. If you don't like this... more>> type of romantic short story, then why are you even here?

Anyway this deserves a 4/5 as a fluffy, cute short story. The main dissatisfaction I have is that how the author isn't even bothering to hide the fact that he/she is completely ignoring character building. "Oh demon king is called demon king because yes but MC be girl and marry and go vroom vroom on bed ok bye oh btw demon king good guy even tho he is call demon king xdxd", thats about the level of character building this short story has, even for the two main characters. At least try to write a decent background at least for the MCs, man.

And then there is how abruptly the story ended:

Spoiler

the story seriously ended when our protagonist and that demon king guy just started having their first s*x as husband and wife, would prefer an extra chapter about life with children, then it would be a lot better

It's an okay-ish story, but I had a few gripes with it, such as:

Spoiler

The r*pe attempt from the Maou's brother to the Hero, and the blatant Stockholm Syndrome the Hero developed from having the Maou protect him from said r*pe attempt, even though the Maou kidnapped, genderbended and mol*sted the Hero for days in the first place.

[collapse]

If you can stomach the above, it's a nice, short read for a single afternoon.

I remember reading this back in 2017. Right around when I started getting into Light Novels. There were only a couple of pages out and the story seemed quite interesting. So I was pleasantly surprised when the other day I notice this novel is now complete. So I came back after 3-Years and decided to reread it and finish it.

I am disappointed. The story is so fast and the Hero's reluctance and dismay of his situation go from 10-0. It was nice at the start of how he was against... more>> the transformation. But then all of a sudden it kind of went into a generic love story with a reluctant female love interest.

Kind of disappointed. <<less

Just so you guys know, Maou is Demons Lord. There's no Demon Lady, or are you s*upid? Male or female, they're both called Maou. You read it from the translation's point of view instead of the original Japanese point of view. That's why you keep getting it wrong. Go back and study!

Well, this is an adorable short story and a really good romance. There are a few things I wish the author would have added to the story just to fill it out more, but honestly great set up, and a great romance.
