Definitely a ton of action in this ep, sadly the subpar animation really let it down. Ngl I’m quite disappointed in Passione on this anime as a whole. They’ve done a lot better in the past.
As for the content of the episode, we finally get Regina’s backstory and how she came to be sisters with Riselia. No wonder they’re so close.
Leo of course comes to bail out his fave minion and friends, ending the hostage situation and taking out the bad guys. We were so close to finding out who this goddess is pulling strings from behind the scenes. Of course she had a failsafe in case one of her minions tried talking. A legendary sword from Leo’s old life. The battle with Leo and Riselia against the demon sword and its minions was cool, but again let down by shoddy animation and some interesting CGI
I wish Regina would’ve got to see the princess at the end of the episode :/ but still a solid ending. Regina’s kiss on Leo was so cute, Riselia might have some competition 😂

Seiken Gakuin no Makentsukai / The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy Review
8/10 Yeah this one seems like it could be pretty good and it's decently funny.
Script under the read more
Hello CG skeletons! The plot for this one is weird, but it's actually good I promise.
The forces of evil have been losing a war against humanity. One demon lord remains standing and in order to fulfill a promise he made to a mysterious being, he initiates a reincarnation ritual that will bring him back in 1000 years.
Now it's a thousand years later and humanity is vastly different than what he expected. Everything he once knew has changed, even down to the calendar. On top of that, he's reincarnated in the body he had when he was a human, a 10 year old human.
Now he has to learn more about the present day world, including about humanity's mysterious new enemy, before he can rebuild his empire and fulfill his promise.
One thing I really liked about this was that his inner commentary allows for some quality humor. One of my favorite moments was this…
(Insert clip of I understood none of that)
This anime shows a lot of promise. Episode 1 drip feeds you information about everything going on and when our demon lord is reborn, were in the same spot he is. We have no idea how the world has changed and it made me interested to learn more.
This is one where my final rating could be drastically different, but for now I'm gonna go with an 8/10. I'm interested enough to watch weekly, but not emotionally invested.
Sharry had like 4 lines in the beginning of the episode and is already one of my fave parts of the series lol.
Kinda funny how the demon lord has been reduced to a sexual joke between young students lol. “Gotta be careful with one’s like that, they’ll grow up to be demon lords in bed” this is definitely not the world Leo left behind
Loved Leo putting that rapey senpai in his place. Fantasy shows always have to have one token wannabe rapist in them, and we’ve got this one out the way early lol. Hopefully we see him taken down and those girls freed from his mind control soon
Shame the bath scene is so damn censored. For a passione show I thought we’d be seeing some good stuff. The thighs and waifus are great, but cmon! Wasted potential.
Speaking of waifus, new one is so cute
So she’s a vampire now eh. That’s a nice twist. Guess everything has a price and hers was her old life. Which considering how she was harassed because she couldn’t use a sacred sword is probably for the best.
