Maoyu	comment	In a world of fantasy and magic, two opposing realms, the Human World and the Demon World, have been at war with each other for the last fifteen years. With both sides locked in a stalemate, one Lone Hero goes on an epic quest into the heart of the Demon World to slay its ruler and bring peace to the world.That was until the Demon Queen, reigning Overlord of the Demon World, confronts him with a surprisingly well-researched and rational truth: that both sides are so deeply entrenched in the war effort that an abrupt end would cause more harm than good. Neither side stands to prosper from a victory (the losers will be enslaved while the winners will likely break out into civil war over the spoils), and extending the war indefinitely would just feed the greed and corruption festering in both nations.And so the Hero and the Demon Queen enter into an elaborate long con, secretly working together to manipulate both sides of the war effort to the point where it can be safely concluded with the least amount of negative repercussions to both sides. Hilarity Ensues.Maoyuu Maou Yuusha ("Evil Overlord and Hero") is a fantasy light novel series written by Touno Mamare. Originally posted as an original story on 2ch, the story had such a positive response that Mamare converted it into a light novel series. The series was published from 2010 to 2012 for eight volumes, and it has five manga adaptations: Maoyuu Maou Yuusha ("Evil Overlord and Hero"): Running on Famitsu Comic Clear. The relatively more serious adaptation. This series is considered the "official" manga adaptation of the light novels, both published by Enterbrain. Maoyuu Maou Yuusha "Kono Watashi no Mono to Nare, Yuusha yo" "Kotowaru!" ("Become Mine, Hero!" "I Refuse!""): Running in Comp Ace. The more lighthearted adaptation, but the focus is the same as the original. While not the "official" manga adaptation, it is one of the more popular ones and is the preferred version by the author of the original novel. Can be officially bought and read here on BookWalker. Maoyuu Maou Yuusha — Oka no Mukou e ("Beyond the Hill"): Running on Champion RED. This one is centered around interactions and romance, leaving most of the business management aside. Maoyuu 4-Koma: Muitemasen yo, Maou-sama! ("I Can't Face You, Demon King!"): Running on the series official website. Total comedy; all characters are portrayed in the way of Character Exaggeration here. Maoyuu Maou Yuusha Gaiden: A Spin-Off running on Monthly Shonen Sirius. Centered around Witch Girl's adventures departed from the original party.A Drama CD is also out as well and both the webnovels and light novels are currently being translated.Prior to the official adaptations, a fan-made manga was also posted on Nico Nico Douga (you can watch it with English subtitles here).An anime adaptation started in January 2013, and can be watched on Crunchyroll if you live in North America, South America, Ireland, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, or the Netherlands.Compare to The Devil is a Part-Timer!.

Maoyu / int_18d15922	type	Title Drop
Maoyu / int_18d15922	comment	Title Drop: The title of the first Light Novel and the actual title of the Comp Ace adaptation: Maoyuu Maou Yuusha - "Kono Watashi no Mono Tonare, Yuusha yo" "Kotowaru!", it's an excerpt of the exchange the Hero and the Demon Queen make to each other in their first meeting, which is: "Be mine, Hero" "I refuse!" depending on your translation. This comes from the original 2ch version, where the title doubles as the first line of dialogue and the body follows immediately after it (as is common among 2ch stories). The anime episodes follow this as well, with a character saying the title of the current episode at some point.

In fact, the true way of achieving world peace is not through brute force, but through a combination of military, economic, diplomatic, political and social reforms. Interestingly, the relationship between Demon Queen and Hero is a Reconstruction of the idea of an Arranged Marriage.

They would gladly take up a fight but not use something as lowly as assassination to achieve their goals. The Blue Ash King is horrified when the Church uses their foot soldiers as suicide bombers. Before that, Royal Prince Marshal clearly hides the fact that the White Knight Nation was supposed to ambush the Southern Union from the Blue Ash King. The Winter Night King, despite being the Token Evil Teammate of the Southern Nations, still shows a flash of guilt in the anime when reminded that they had sacrificed the Hero's life before muttering that "he was just a soldier".

The Warrior Youngster, using the Demon Queen's teachings, successfully defends against a 2,000-man cavalry from White Night Nation with only 400 troops from Iron Nation. The first human army sent to recapture Aurora Island is massacred, with only 15 of the original 200 ships managing to escape. The Holy Key Expeditionary Force does this to both their supposed allies, the Blue Demon Clan, and the Southern Union, with the use of muskets. They do it again in the face of Gateway City's saturation attack, thanks to their improved efficiency at the hands of the Blue Ash King.

It's pretty clear that the discord in the Holy Key Expedition is partially a result of this, as well as the clash between Royal Prince Marshal and the Archbishop's ideas over what the war is about. The nobles in the army see the serfs as idiots, and the Archbishop makes no effort in having an actual strategy, since all he wants is to capture Gateway City and push its Reset Button so he Take Over the World . It's up to Royal Prince Marshal, his Chief Strategist, and the Blue Ash King to devise plans to actually keep the expedition going.

Maoyu / int_5539b84f	comment	Corrupt Church: While many of its followers (in particular, villagers and nuns) are quite benign and devout, the desires of power, avarice and control have infected much of the Central Church of the Light Spirit, causing it to work in league with the power brokers in nobility. They gang up on the Crimson Scholar, labeling her a 'heretic' not because of any true theological issues, but because her inventions and innovations that brought bounty to the Southern Triad has weakened the Triad's need to be dependent on the Central Nation and, thus, do whatever they are told. By the end of the anime version of the story, Lady Knight's convent of the Lakeside Church, where she is prioress, break off from the Central Church. It goes further than that. The Central Church is working with the Blue Demon Tribe, whose hat is Social Darwinism, to perpetuate the war so that both factions can remain in power forever. It shows how little they're motivated by self-righteousness and order and more by... other things. The Archibishop's end goal seem to be to gain the power of both the Hero and the Demon King, and restart the world so he becomes the supreme ruler; completely abandoning the church's followers and nobility supporters in this iteration of the world.

The Demon World counterpart of Japan is split between the Oni (noble, aristocratic) and the Humanoid (simpler common-folk). The Dragon Clan is predominantly China, with some Korean hints mixed in. The Blue Demon Clan has an Arabian/Central Asian flavor. A demon meeting is called a Khuruldai, the Mongolian word for congress.

Corruption in the Central Church thankfully doesn't sit well with the followers of the actual teachings of the faith, and they hold a line against the Central Nations. Unlike Catholicism, the Church seems to prefer cremation to burial; this is because the Holy Spirit was once the shrine maiden of the Fire Spirit Clan.

In Chapter 1 of the Comp Ace version, we see the Dragon Lord (with a censor bar over his eyes) as an illustration of how the "We Can Rule Together" trope is a bad idea. Also in Chapter 18, Kogarashi and Roberta are sighted as the Head Maid was explaining (wrongly) about all the maids' powers. Maybe unintentional, but chapter 22 of Akira Ishida's version: "Those ancient cliche phrases already stamped on 'The Things Modern Demon Lord Shouldn't Say'!" In chapter 23 of the Ishida version, where the Dragon Princess' speech is from The Bible, specifically Ecclesiastes 3 (better known as the lyrics of Turn! Turn! Turn!), only slightly modified, the difference is mainly from the re-translation from Japanese:

Maoyu / int_ca9c252f	comment	This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself: After the Demon Queen/ Crimson Scholar left the village and gave Older Sister Maid the ring of illusion, the central church accuses the Crimson Scholar of heresy, claiming her farming method and knowledge are evil teachings contrary to the Light Spirit. To defuse the situation, the plan is to let Older Sister Maid pose as the Crimson Scholar and let herself be captured, and then, after she's taken out of the Winter Nation, the Hero will free her. However, it goes awry when Older Sister Maid, posing as the Crimson Scholar, is brought out to be humiliated in front of the populace. Instead of taking the abuse, she looses a defiant speech about how she was once a serf, but was able to see the light thanks to someone's kindness (the Crimson Scholar and Head Maid, but of course she omits that specific part) and realized her worth as a free human being who is blessed by The Spirit of Light, which she extends to the entire populace watching her, serfs included. She refuses to let anyone help her since she wants to stand on her own as a human being, and takes on the Head Maid's stance that everyone who doesn't take advantage of their gifts of freedom is a contemptible insect. Naturally, the inquisitor doesn't like it at all and commands his soldiers to behead her. Luckily, none other than the Winter Nation King, Lady Knight, and the entire gathered populace came to her protection.

Maoyu / int_e49686	type	The Hero
Maoyu / int_e49686	comment	The series is a deconstruction of the fantasy genre in general, since it points out that The Hero killing the Evil Overlord does not necessarily end the world's problems. In fact, the true way of achieving world peace is not through brute force, but through a combination of military, economic, diplomatic, political and social reforms.

Maoyu / int_e5206db8	comment	Brains Versus Brawn: The Hero is a Country Mouse who became a nigh-unstoppable One-Man Army thanks to being The Chosen One and his constant training. Meanwhile, the Demon Queen is a scholar who spent most of her days prior to ascending to the throne reading and performing experiments. When Hero confronts her at the start of the story, she admits that she's probably no match for him in a fight, instead asking for his attention and challenging his worldview with a presentation on the impact of the human-demon war from an economic standpoint.

The Archbishop is very Obviously Evil to the readers, although he's better at hiding it in-universe. Both the Hero and Royal Prince Marshal can see through him, though.

Maoyu / int_e563bf09	comment	Insistent Terminology: Head Maid calls Serfs "Slaves", because that's exactly what they were. Notes on real-world serfdom. As far as this particular world is concerned, in this particular time. In real life, the conditions of serfs was rather more complicated and, since internal wars were not uncommon, a better deal than otherwise (nobility had the right of use, not abuse); however, the condition of serfs declined following the plagues, especially in regions where there was a tradition of absolutism (e.g. Russia), which is the take used in Maoyu, and one of the issues the Hero and Demon Queen try to allay.

And as the original definition of "demon" is "one who lives in the demon world", and "enough persons" was also defined when demon clans were a lot smaller in number; the human-majority residents of Gateway City, fulfilling the numbers requirement and currently living underground quite prosperously, invoke the right to join. They are granted the right.

When the forces defending Gateway City are being crushed by the Holy Key Expedition, Demon Queen, Duke Silver Tiger, and Eastern Commander appear from behind the attacking army to reinforce their allies. Later on, Warrior Youngster saves her from an assassination attempt by Commander.

His/her killer would be an assassin, not a hero, and such an action is rendered moot if he/she is easily replaceable.

When the Demon King is teaching a couple of noble children, the older runaway girl from earlier in the episode is in the room with them. She tries to teach them about how the economy plays a role in the war effort, such as food availability. Two of the nobles scoffs at the idea of starving people, saying that peasants wouldn't need to worry about that because their lords would protect and feed them. Which causes the girl to comment that they must never have starved before.

Maoyu / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: Many of the Demon Queen's technological innovations are based on real-life ones like crop rotation, to the point where the exact system discussed was identical to that which played a crucial role in the British Agricultural Revolution. When discussing techniques for growing potatoes in barren lands, she selects dead fish as fertilizer ("sacrifice", as she terms them), which has real-life truth due to their high nitrogen content which helps fertilization in sandy soil. The supporting characters also have very in-depth knowledge of politics, macroeconomics, military tactics, organized religion, immigration, social welfare and human rights. Also, potatoes actually were decried as evil at some point.note Potatoes were first served to the British court by an ill-informed chef in the form of baked and boiled greens and eyes. This "meal" went over poorly, in part because the greens of the potato are actually poisonous.
