My Thoughts on A Hero Trained by the Most Evil Demon King is Unrivaled in the Academy of Returnees from Another World
First Impressions
"A Hero Trained by the Most Evil Demon King is Unrivaled in the Academy of Returnees from Another World" – that's quite a mouthful! The premise immediately grabbed my attention: a protagonist molded by a demon king, now navigating a school filled with heroes from other worlds. It sounds like a recipe for chaotic fun, and I was eager to dive in.
What Works Well
The initial concept of an academy for returning heroes is undeniably intriguing. The world-building hints at a larger, potentially complex system, with councils overseeing the balance between worlds and goddesses meddling in academy affairs. This underlying mystery adds a layer of depth that kept me curious. The chemistry between the MC and the demon lord is also interesting.
Areas of Concern
However, my enthusiasm waned as I delved deeper. The most glaring issue is the protagonist himself. We're told he's lived for 30,000 years, enduring intense training with the Demon King in a desolate world. Yet, he acts like your typical, dense, Japanese high schooler. This disconnect is jarring. It's hard to believe that someone with that much experience wouldn't exhibit any signs of maturity, trauma, or, at the very least, a unique perspective on the world.
His personality feels like a cardboard cutout. Instead of a complex character shaped by millennia of isolation and training, we get a protagonist who seems determined to hide his power and avoid standing out, falling into the tired trope of the "lowkey but careless OP MC." This lack of character depth undermines the entire premise.

Final Verdict
While the initial premise of "A Hero Trained by the Most Evil Demon King is Unrivaled in the Academy of Returnees from Another World" holds promise, the execution falls short. The underdeveloped protagonist, reliance on tired tropes, and a lack of meaningful character growth make it difficult to fully invest in the story. The unique elements are overshadowed by the generic aspects, leaving me with a sense of unfulfilled potential.
