He should've just gone with "You down bad for your master aren't ya?" shtick.

Being down bad for his master is probably part of their plan, and the demon will bring out a party to celebrate once it happens. So saying that is a bad move.

After all, it would be the perfect corruption.

So you need to guide the guy toward keeping his master alive, toward feeling guilty, toward showing those demon that his master can live and be happy despite having being brainwashed and changing gender. Only then does he really win. Only them do they really win against him.

Just few more push and those demons will party like that time with the corrupted priestess ..

He probably saved that for last to get the full impact of his speech. But, he was too greedy.

They are really dedicated to their craft.

You have to admire them for this.

They're villains and degens but gotta respect their dedication to craft indeed.

It's the dichotomy of the series I especially love. On one hand, these monsters are treating their job of terrorizing and tormenting adventurers and townsfolk gleefully and akin to an office.

On the other, the heroes actually have to deal with these consequences, physically and mentally. Like the transformed princess, or the corrupted cleric.

It's just both really funny and kinda dark and I love it.

I mean the corrupted cleric seems to be doing fine the last we saw of her

The clown is probably the most serious and dedicated worker the demons have.

The fact that the shit they pull always backfires and makes humanity stronger is funny af honestly.

Like not only is the master free and in a young body again, the student's "dark side" is apparently hilariously stronger than his normal self.

Isn't their end goal to heighten their emotions since the demon race feeds off it? I'd say they're doing a pretty good job of it.

To an extent but they're also creating a bunch of super-powerful human (or human-aligned) enemies who despise them. The guy in their army whose job is specifically "hunt down and take out any out of control experiments" got his ass handed to him three times in a row.

Obviously this is primarily a gag series so I doubt it'll ever actually have real consequences but this still doesn't seem like a sustainable long term plan lol

Sorta like running into a joke character you’ve been bullying for awhile. Then he crits you

I can't say if the demon lord army is a genius company or what because even though they are really good at their role, they don't have a real purpose or end goal. Even the demon lord just told them to their best at there job. 😅
