Isekai is by no doubt the most over satured genre in the market currently.
Every season you can expect an abundance of mediocre isekais with the rare gem in the
bunch time to time.
However, one sub-genre rarely capitalized is reverse-isekais.
Think of a devil is a part timer and kobayashi dragon maid for example.
And speaking of the devil is a part timer, it seems its bizarre successor has finally
been animated.
Jahy sama, the dark-skinned demon lord loli who was defeated by a holy magical warrior
and consequently isekai’d into the modern realm.
The devil is a part timers influence is heavily apparent in jahy sama, it literally follows
part timers story beats point by point.
The story revolves around Jahy looking for the shattered pieces of a magical gem which
has the power to restore the dark realm, also known as Jahys homeland.
Though it’s not that easy as Jahy is forced to adapt to the rules of the modern human
realm she’s currently trapped in.
Which consequently results in an abundance of goofy dynamics.
Such as Jahy attempting to maintain her pride as a demon lord, while also serving those
lowly humans in her waitress job.
Or even constantly trying to avoid paying her landlord rent because her rundown apartment
is beneath a demon lord standards.
Such humorous and wacky scenarios make up the story.
Now obviously if you’re a devil of a part time fan, these elements may sound like plagiarism
with how copy pasted the synopsis is.
However, before you judge Jahy-sama as a bootleg the devil is a part timer, I highly implore
you to give it a chance because I would say Jahy sama is actually BETTER than a devil
is a part timer.
One episode in, and the characters are already 10 times more enjoyable than most of the part
timers cast.
Jahy is basically the reverse nagatoro.
Rather than being the bully, Jahy is the one who is constantly unintentionally abused in
hilarious ways.
Just like nagatoro, Jahy will spawn an abundance of memes because of the hysterical situations
present in the show.
So many memeble faces and wacky humor that will easily entertain the average viewer.
So, I would be shocked if jahy sama doesn’t blow up to at least cult classic status.
Though only one episode has dropped so obviously there’s a chance the quality could dip akin
to nagatoro and the devil is a part timer.
However, I’m far more optimistic in jahy samas success because it easily had one of
the best introduction episodes of the season.
Though it does help that summer 2021 is easily one of the worst seasons in anime history
so there’s not much competition, which gives more room for jahy sama to stand out.
Nevertheless, don’t expect anything original or groundbreaking if you decide to give jahy
sama a chance.
It’s purely a wholesome experience with numerous hilarious scenarios with its highly
entertaining characters.
Also, there’s not much fanservice despite jahy samas outlandish outfit so don’t expect
a sexually charged comedy akin to nagataro-san.
However, this could change down the line but as of now it seems jahy sama is a pure friendly
family wholesome experience.
And if you’re familiar with the devil is a part-timer and dragon maid, you can easily
predict what direction the story will go.
Likely Jahy will encounter an abundance of former comrades and adversaries from her homeland,
and they will attempt to adapt to the rules of the modern realm in their unique way.
While occasionally Jahy will be forced to battle against old foes because Jahy will
inevitably lose her passion for returning to her homeland in favor of staying in the
modern realm with her newly acquired friends.
So basically, like your typical fish out of water story but I hope Jahy takes its own
spin on the cliché traditions.
If you’re a manga reader, let me know how unique or similar Jahy sama is compared to
its peers in the reverse isakai genre.
Though obviously don’t spoil anything, keep the details minor as possible.
Nevertheless, I’m excited for 19 more episodes of Jahy sama and this anime has potential
to be the anime of the season, especially in this depressing weak line up.
Though obviously it depends on the quality of the show down the line.
Though now I want to hear your thoughts on Jahy sama.
Will you give Jahy sama a chance or does it not fit your taste?
Also, if you did watch the first episode, what did you think about it?
