Anime Review: Devil is a Part-Timer

If you want to copy the storyline of Noblesse at least do a good job of it. It takes less than ten minutes of the anime for a magic-yielding devil from another world to get used to our world, and learn the language, and get a job, and become good at it. The whole charm of Noblesse was the idea of a powerful mythical being step-by-step getting used  to our world and the comical situations that arise as a result which is entirely lacking in Devil is a Part-Timer. Hearing the devil and his subordinate converse in their own language grates on one's ears and sounds exactly like someone speaking a foreign language - affected and artificial instead of what it should be - grandiose and smooth befitting a magical place. Decided to definitely not watch past the first episode.
