If It's for My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat a Demon Lord

Dale is a skilled adventurer in a fantasy world whose life is changed when he finds a young girl abandoned in the forest. She looks almost like an ordinary girl... she just has small horns indicating that she is a Devil. In this world devils all evil and he can't bring himself to abandon her so he effectively adopts her. He gives her the name Latina. She quickly learns the human language and is popular with the other adventurers at the inn Dale lives at. There is a question hanging over her; one of her horns is broken; this indicates she was rejected by her people.

If you were expecting a fantasy series with lots of fighting and adventuring you are likely to be disappointed. There is very little of either. Instead it centres on Latina getting used to human society and their acceptance of her. There are a few minor problems but in general the biggest upset for her is Dale going away adventuring. When he does we stay with her and watch her doing things like serving at the inn and learning to cook. In other words this is very much a cute 'moe' series. The episodes are fun to watch without excitement. The animation is good with impressive back grounds and nicely designed characters. There is one problem with it; it doesn't really go anywhere; as the final episode ended I was left thinking 'Is that it?'. Questions were left unanswered; presumably because the manga is ongoing. Overall though this is a charming little series so I'd still recommend it.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

score 7/10
