| 1 | "Iruma-kun from Demon School" Transcription: "Akuma gakkō no Iruma-kun" (Japanese: 悪魔学校の入間くん) | October 5, 2019 | |
| Iruma Suzuki, a fourteen year old Japanese boy incapable of refusing polite requests, works hard to support his scumbag parents. He is suddenly kidnapped to the Netherworld by the demon Sullivan after Iruma’s parents sold his soul. Sullivan wishes to adopt Iruma as his beloved grandson, since his friends Levy and Belial always boast about their grandsons and he is jealous. Iruma agrees and is enrolled in Demon School where he must keep his human identity secret or risk being eaten by his classmates. Iruma attends opening ceremony and learns Sullivan is the schools director. First Year Representative Asmodeus Alice tries to give his speech but Sullivan makes Iruma do it instead. Iruma reads a speech provided by Sullivan, terrifying and impressing the students as the speech was actually a dangerous spell to prevent Iruma falling or embarrassing himself. Asmodeus challenges Iruma to a duel for insulting him but Iruma, having being raised by scumbag parents who constantly put him in dangerous situations, has developed an almost superhuman ability to dodge out of the way. The other students assume Iruma refuses to fight back because he considers Asmodeus weak. When a girl in the audience is almost hurt Iruma saves her, but the effects of Sullivans spell prevents him falling forwards and he accidentally knocks Asmodeus unconscious by throwing him backwards in a German Suplex. The story spreads throughout the school, making Iruma famous. Iruma is shocked when Asmodeus happily declares himself Iruma's servant. Sullivan is delighted Iruma seems to have a bright future in the Netherworld. | |||
| 2 | "Familiars Summoned!" Transcription: "Tsukaima, shōkan!" (Japanese: 使い魔、召喚!) | October 12, 2019 | |
| During breakfast with Sullivan Iruma demonstrates his ability to consume truly shocking amounts of food. He tries to refuse to attend demon school but decides to go when Sullivan reveals he has bought even more thoughtful gifts for him. Asmodeus informs Iruma they must summon their magical familiars and the strength of the familiar will determine their demonic rank and which class they are placed in. Their advisor, Naberius Kalego, immediately dislikes Iruma for being Sullivan’s grandson. To summon a familiar the students perform a ceremony using their blood on summoning parchments marked with Naberius' demonic seal to prevent cheating. Asmodeus summons a fire breathing Gorgon snake. Iruma tries a summoning but as he has no demonic power in his blood the familiar summoning accidentally becomes a demon summoning using the power of Naberius' demonic seal, causing Naberius to be summoned as Iruma's familiar in the embarrassing form of a small, cute, fluffy owl with bat wings and horns. Despite it being an accident the other students assume Iruma must be even more powerful than Naberius to be able to bind him as a familiar, thus increasing Iruma's fame even more. Sullivan happily informs them familiar summoning contracts are unbreakable and last an entire year. Naberius becomes bedridden from shock and Iruma's rank is left undetermined. Iruma meets a hyperactive student named Valac Clara whom Asmodeus warns Iruma not to speak to. | |||
| 3 | "Iruma and Clara" Transcription: "Iruma to Kurara" (Japanese: 入間とクララ) "Demon Friends" Transcription: "Akuma no Otomodachi" (Japanese: 悪魔のお友達) | October 19, 2019 | |
|
Asmodeus explains Clara is a weirdo who people try to avoid. Clara becomes attached to Iruma who is compelled to play with her after she says "please". Clara reveals she possesses magical pockets which can copy any object she sees. Iruma learns other students have been manipulating Clara into creating free food for them. Clara sadly reveals she has gotten used to having to bribe people to be her friends. When she tries to bribe Iruma he refuses, upsetting her, until Iruma explains he wants to be her friend without bribes. This makes Clara so happy that when the other students try manipulating her again she throws a drinks machine at them before using Asmodeus as a target for paint dodge ball. Iruma is unsure if Asmodeus and Clara are his friends since he never had friends before. Iruma learns a student's rank controls what food they can order. Clara gets in trouble with the snack stall owner who considers her replicating pockets a form of shoplifting. Naberius arrives to settle the matter only for Clara to trick Iruma into summoning Naberius, turning him back into an owl. Iruma, Clara and Asmodeus flee while the stall owner traps Naberius and demands payment for the shoplifted items. Iruma asks Asmodeus and Clara if they are his friends but is surprised to learn demons have no concept of "friends", but they agree to be friends anyway. Sullivan holds a faculty meeting where it is decided Iruma, Clara and Asmodeus will all be placed in the Misfit Class for Problem Children. | |||
| 4 | "The Misfit Class" Transcription: "Abunōmaru Kurasu" (Japanese: | October 26, 2019 | |
| Sullivan reveals to Iruma he put him in a class of troublemakers to help him not stand out, along with Asmodeus and Clara so he wouldn't be alone. Iruma immediately runs afoul of booby traps set by his new classmates who wagered on whether he would survive. Iruma meets Sabnock Sabro, a tall muscular delinquent who plans on becoming the next Demon King. Iruma learns there are ten demonic ranks, with Yodh, or 10th Rank, being strongest, and the Demon King is always chosen from among the Yodh. Sabnock admits he was placed in Misfit Class for trying to defeat a teacher. Naberius arrives and sets them a task to determine their ranks, a race through a dangerous valley, though Naberius warns them to avoid the guardian beast that is in a particularly foul mood. Most students opt to fly, except for Iruma who has no demon wings and simply falls off the cliff when pushed by an impatient Naberius. Sabnock flies straight for the guardian, hoping to defeat it and get a high rank. Iruma is carried off by demonic crows that accidentally drop him in the guardians nest with its baby, who is injured. Iruma tries to help the baby and discovers his human blood can heal demons injuries instantly. The grateful baby decides to fly Iruma to the flag as a thank you. Elsewhere Sabnock admits he made a mistake trying to defeat the guardian as it easily overpowers him. | |||
| 5 | "The One Who Wants to Be Demon King" Transcription: "Maō wo mezasu mono" (Japanese: 魔王を目指す者) | November 2, 2019 | |
| Sabnock reveals he wants to become Demon King to prove himself better than his pacifist older brother. Iruma suddenly lands in front of him, pacifying the guardian by showing its child is healed. Sabnock assumes Iruma is somehow powerful enough not to be afraid of the guardian. At the finish line Asmodeus places first and Clara, riding on Asmodeus' shoulders, comes second. Iruma and Sabnock end up in last despite riding on the guardians back. Naberius explains a Rank Owl will provide everyone with rank badges. Sabnock declares Iruma his rival. Asmodeus earns Dalet, 4th Rank, Clara earns Gimel, 3rd Rank and Sabnock earns Bet, 2nd Rank. Iruma, instead of a badge, receives a golden ring. A startled Sabnock recalls a prophecy, that the next Demon King will make other demons his servants, heal injuries with his blood, have been born a foreigner and wear Solomon’s Ring. Iruma freaks out when a black flame demon appears from the ring and starts draining power from his classmates. Naberius senses the ring threatening him and moves to sever Iruma's entire arm but is stopped by Sullivan who scolds him. Sullivan explains the ring is actually the Gluttonous Feeder Ring that eats magic power, then pacifies it by feeding it some of his power. Iruma's rank is undetermined and by default receives the lowest rank, Alef. Meanwhile his taming of the guardian and his ring attacking his classmates increases his fame yet again. | |||
| 6 | "Ameri's Theory" Transcription: "Ameri no Kasetsu" (Japanese: アメリの仮説) | November 9, 2019 | |
| Iruma's fame draws the attention of the student council. In Botany Class the students learn to use magic to grow demonic plants. Sabnock produces a feral flower that eats everything it sees, Asmodeus an elegant flower with flaming petals and Clara a mutated flower beyond rational description. Having no magic Iruma says the spell as a joke while thinking of his home in Japan. Sullivan's magic suddenly bursts from his ring just as Sullivan calls Iruma to explain that the ring lets Iruma use magic, but Sullivan had forgotten to set a limit on its output. Iruma's overpowered seed explodes into a giant cherry blossom tree, destroying the greenhouse. Student council president, Azazel Amelie, recognises the tree as a human plant and suspects Iruma is human. Amelie privately reveals most demons believe humans do not exist, but her family secretly owns a library of sacred relics, i.e. Japanese manga, and is obsessed with the First Love Memories series but as she cannot read Japanese has mistakenly concluded it is a manual of human love spells. Iruma tries to clean up the falling cherry blossoms, despite Clara making more mess. As he leaves Iruma turns a corner and accidentally knocks Amelie over. Amelie, recognising the similarity to a romantic scene from First Love Memories, believes Iruma is trying to make her fall in love with him using human magic and concludes he must be human. | |||
| 7 | "First Love Memories" Transcription: "Hatsukoi memorī" (Japanese: 初恋メモリー) | November 16, 2019 | |
| Iruma and Amelie end up frozen, unsure how to react. Iruma assumes Amelie is angry while Amelie assumes she is in a magical love duel. Amelie drops First Love Memories which Iruma recognises as a manga he helped illustrate to earn money. Amelie realises he can read Japanese and, rather than reveal he is human, drags him to her office and asks him to read the story out loud for her. After Iruma finishes an embarrassed Amelie puts her number in his phone so she can ask him to read for her again. Iruma can't decide if he prefers his old life or his new life. Opera informs him it may be possible to visit the human world if he becomes a high ranking demon. Iruma is summoned by Amelie, making Asmodeus and Clara suspicious. Amelie decides, based on First Love Memories, that spending time with Iruma counts as a date. Asmodeus and Clara buy Detection Warding Glasses to hide while following Iruma. Asmodeus assumes Iruma is hatching a plan to take over the student council while Clara assumes they are excluding her from a new game. After learning about ambition from First Love Memories and listening to Amelie's plans for the future Iruma realises his pushover personality had prevented him from having any ambition of his own. | |||
| 8 | "Head Over Heels for Clara" Transcription: "Kurara ni meromero" (Japanese: クララにメロメロ) | November 23, 2019 | |
| Asmodeus tries to stop Clara ruining Iruma's plans of taking over the school. Iruma struggles to come up with a dream so Amelie urges him to raise his rank as a temporary goal. Clara breaks into the room to take Iruma back, assuming Amelie was trying to steal him. As time passes and Iruma spends more time with Amelie, Clara becomes increasingly annoyed, so Sabnock suggests she lure Iruma with her feminine wiles. As Clara has no feminine wiles she joins Seduction Class to learn sexiness, but the succubus teacher, Raim, determines she has only 2% sexiness, making her impossibly innocent. Clara tries to use seduction methods on Iruma but he assumes she is playing games. Clara becomes depressed but returns to normal after her mother kisses her forehead. The next day Clara tries to use a kiss attack, but Iruma avoids it with his superhuman dodging skill, while Clara ends up receiving detention from Naberius. Clara admits she has zero sex appeal and resigns herself to losing Iruma, until Iruma innocently reveals he does think of her as a girl, restoring her confidence enough she declares she will make Iruma fall for her. Iruma feels an unusual thump in his heart as she pulls him along holding his hand. Raim happily observes that Clara’s sexiness has risen to 10%. Iruma decides to get serious about raising his rank from Alef, 1st, to Bet, 2nd. | |||
| 9 | "Iruma's Decision and Hard Work" Transcription: "Iruma no Ketsui, takanaru doryoku" (Japanese: 入間の決意、高鳴る努力) | November 30, 2019 | |
| Iruma asks Asmodeus to help him climb the ranks and Asmodeus overreacts and begins planning to make Iruma a Yodh, 10th rank, and rule the school, though Iruma assures him he would be content with making it to Bet. Asmodeus agrees, assuming Iruma has a complicated reason for becoming a Bet, and explains the best way is to score well on an upcoming Rank Promotion Exam based on Execution Cannonball, a dangerous competition similar to human Dodge ball. Iruma assumes he will do well with his ability to avoid danger until he realises the other students are allowed to use their demonic powers. He asks Sullivan for training and learns he can use his ring to use magic during the exam, but Iruma decides he wants to compete with his own power and not magic borrowed from Sullivan. Sullivan strengthens Iruma's hands to give him a fair chance then leaves the physical training to Opera. Iruma struggles to catch the ball as his instinct is still to dodge, but he refuses to give up and even gets help from Asmodeus and Clara. After a week he still cannot catch the ball but Opera assures Sullivan Iruma is definitely having fun. Eventually Iruma manages to catch the ball and Opera informs Sullivan Iruma is ready to take the exam. | |||
| 10 | "Fierce Battle, Execution Cannonball!!" Transcription: "Gekitō, shokeigyokuhō!!" (Japanese: 激闘、処刑玉砲！！) | December 7, 2019 | |
| The day of the exam arrives. Naberius explains their ranks will be increased based on the opponents they defeat, but only if they are on the winning team. Asmodeus is assigned to a different team from Iruma but decides to help him. The exam is instant chaos as Iruma's classmates use their powers while Clara floods the court with multiple balls. Iruma manages to catch the real ball, only to realise he never learned how to throw it. Sabnock, irritated that Asmodeus appears to be daydreaming, tries to strike him but Asmodeus strikes Sabnock out instead. Asmodeus continues to strike players out without thinking, until only he and Iruma remain. Asmodeus is put in a tight spot, if he lets Iruma win he would be helping Iruma gain a rank but also undermine all his hard work. After a moment of hesitation he decides to throw with his whole power. Amelie arrives to watch the exam for herself. Iruma overcomes his fear and catches the powerful throw, but as he cannot stop it he instead spins in a circle to redirect the balls momentum back at Asmodeus who is struck out by his own power. Naberius, impressed by Iruma's tactic, promotes his rank to Bet, 2nd. Amelie congratulates Iruma on finally gaining ambition. Iruma thanks Opera for all his training, upsetting an emotional Sullivan who realises he did very little to help Iruma at all. | |||
| 11 | "Together with Familiars!" Transcription: "Tsukaima to Issho!" (Japanese: 使い魔といっしょ！) "The Battler's Challenge" Transcription: "Batora no Chōsen" (Japanese: | December 14, 2019 | |
|
A new teacher, Balse Robin, begins teaching the Misfit Class about the importance of bonding with one's familiar. Asmodeus and Sabnock summon their Gorgon snake and Kelbie horse and Clara summons her Falfal, a rare familiar whose actions are mysterious. Iruma tries to refuse, until Balse says "please", so Iruma summons a furious Naberius. Balse reminds Iruma he needs to control his familiar, according to the rules written by Naberius. Naberius decides to make Iruma the best summoner in class, even though it involves playing embarrassing games to promote trust. Iruma sincerely apologises so Naberius asks why Iruma didn't summon him to fight the valley guardian. Iruma explains it was so neither Naberius nor the guardian would get hurt. Asmodeus and Sabnock get in a fight so Naberius defeats their familiars and angrily informs the students that familiars are powerful, violent monsters only kept in check by their contracts. The best summoners should trust their familiars while also fearing them, as Iruma does. Naberius also forces Balse to rethink his teaching style. Iruma learns about the Battlers, groups of students with similar interests who form groups to help each other raise their ranks, like school clubs. Iruma decides to join one of the Battlers to find a new goal and possibly raise his rank again. Asmodeus tries to prepare Iruma as the senior Battlers begin their Rookie Hunt, an insanely terrifying stampede by older students to recruit first year students into their groups. | |||
| 12 | "The Rookie Hunt" Transcription: "Rūkī Hanto!!" (Japanese: 1 | December 21, 2019 | |
| As the hunt begins most seniors try to recruit Asmodeus. The hunt is so brutal the first years are put in actual physical danger. Amelie and the student council monitor most of the mayhem while Iruma realises that Amelie is actually the student council president. Amelie surprises everybody by inviting Iruma to join the councils Battler. Naberius announces a three day trial period where students can try numerous Battlers before deciding which to join permanently. Clara shows repeated interest in Raim's Succubus Battler. Iruma struggles to decide as his fame means he is invited to join every Battler. His ring suddenly activates and drags him through the air, dropping him on Ami Kirio, the recruiter for the Magical Apparatus Battler, whose necklace is made from the same metal as the ring. Iruma visits several Battlers, most of which are dangerous in some way and unsuitable. Sullivan alters Iruma's ring so he can choose the level of magic he wants to use, Devil, Demon or Ifrit, and a level for emergencies only, Pandoroola. After testing the ring at the Execution Cannonball Battler Amelie texts Iruma, reminding him to visit the council Battler before the trial period is over. Iruma is caught up in an explosion caused by one of Kirio's apparatus'. | |||
| 13 | "The Magical Apparatus Battler" Transcription: "Magu kenkyū batora" (Japanese: ▽魔具研究 "The Thirteen's Dinner" Transcription: "Sātīn・Dinā" (Japanese: | December 28, 2019 | |
|
The council members are confused over Amelie's sudden enthusiasm for Battler recruitment. Iruma texts her that he won't be able to visit the council after Kirio's explosion, but Amelie believes finding out she is the council president has scared him away. Kirio explains that he researches and creates magic items, but his magic power is so weak he cannot use the items he creates. His goal is to allow weaker demons to stand up to the higher level demons that mistreat them. Iruma decides to join his Battler and he is followed by Clara and Asmodeus. Iruma does later visit the student council, to Amelie's delight, at least until Iruma explains he joined another Battler. With the trial period over the school prepares for the Battler Party for Battlers to welcome their new recruits and meet their parents. Sullivan must attend the Thirteen's Dinner, a meeting of the Netherworld's thirteen greatest heroes, all of whom are concerned the netherworld is falling to chaos without a Demon-King, and believe it is time to raise either Sullivan, Levi or Belial to the throne. Levi and Belial agree Sullivan should take the throne but Sullivan refuses as he would have less time to spend with Iruma. Henri, one of the thirteen and Amelie's father, is forced to arrest Sullivan after finding evidence Sullivan illegally visited the human world. | |||
| 14 | "The Battler's Presentation" Transcription: "Batora no Ohirome" (Japanese: | January 4, 2020 | |
| Sullivan is questioned by Demon Border Control. Most of the first years panic at the thought of their parents visiting the school. Sullivan appoints Naberius as temporary school director while the rest of the staff wonders what Sullivan did to get arrested. Kirio reveals that all Battlers give presentations competing for prizes, maybe even a rise in rank, but the Magical Apparatus Battler has such a small budget they normally stand no chance, until Iruma is inspired to create fireworks. As the testing requires darkness Kirio decides they must stay at school overnight. While trying to create gunpowder Kirio reveals he has an ability to create magical barriers, the only reason he survives so many explosions. Iruma asks Amelie to loan him one of her manga so Kirio can see what a firework should look like, but she refuses, at least until she realises she would get to see real fireworks. After they successfully create fireworks they exhaust themselves with a pillow fight, utilising Iruma's dodge ability and Kirio's barriers. Kirio is later contacted by a powerful demon named Baal that can use lightning magic, revealing he is the reason Sullivan has been arrested and he has been plotting with Kirio to create a machine to destroy the school. | |||
| 15 | "Kiriwo's Secret Room" Transcription: "Kiriwo no Kakushi beya" (Japanese: キリヲの隠し部屋) | January 11, 2020 | |
| It is announced the Battler Party will last three days and the first place prize will be an increase in rank for the Battler members and an increase of two ranks for the Battler president. Kirio continues working on his machine, which flashbacks show he was only able to complete due to Iruma's help, and that his powerful demon friend plans to use his machine to kill as many students as possible. As Kirio works in his hidden workshop he is suddenly interrupted by Iruma, who had been dragged through the air by his ring searching for Kirio's necklace. Kirio decides to reveal to Iruma that the secret workshop is hidden on the school roof behind one way, soundproof glass, and that his plan to help the weak stand up to the strong includes the school bell, which will be rung to begin the Party. Still not understanding Kirio's meaning Iruma urges him to try and win first prize with their fireworks to prove they don’t need to be strong to win. Kirio appears happy he and Iruma are so alike. With the preparations over the Battler Party can finally begin, to Kirio's delight. | |||
| 16 | "Party Eve" Transcription: "Zenyasai" (Japanese: 前夜祭) | January 18, 2020 | |
| The Party Eve begins, a festival the night before the main competitions start. As fireworks require darkness Iruma and the others decide to scout their competition. Iruma knocks the Yakisoba Battler out of the competition by devouring their famous Ogre sized serving, leaving them with no ingredients. Iruma is warned by his classmates that his main competitors are the New Magic Battler, who will attempt to conjure water from a stone. The Game Battler, with their Virtual Sorcery Hat to allow people to experience virtual reality adventures, as well as the Underwater Circus and the Magic Beast Battles. Asmodeus reveals they will set off their main firework as the school bell rings to signal the start of the competition. Clara accidentally lights the fuse, but when it misfires they realise their biggest firework is missing. Kirio takes the stolen firework to his workshop. Amelie’s father possesses evidence of Sullivan kidnapping Iruma, given to him by Baal, the powerful demon helping Kirio. As the sun sets Kirio destroys his necklace, covering the entire school with multiple barriers preventing people from being able to move around. Iruma finds himself separated from Asmodeus and Clara by a barrier while Kirio begins his plan. | |||
| 17 | "Run, Iruma, to Kiriwo!" Transcription: "Hashire Iruma, Kiriwo no moto e!" (Japanese: 走れ入間、キリヲのもとへ！) | January 25, 2020 | |
| Sullivan senses the barriers appearing. Iruma realises the barriers are Kirio's. Naberius finds the barriers are self-repairing, meaning they could only have been cast by a Tet, 9th Rank and can likely only be fully destroyed by a Yodh, 10th Rank like Sullivan, meaning his arrest was arranged beforehand. Naberius manages to move by breaking barriers and moving through before they can repair and has another teacher announce to the students that the barriers are a surprise maze event by the New Magic and Game Battlers. Naberius begins researching all demons with barrier creation abilities. When most of the students make it to the courtyard easily Naberius worries they were manipulated into going to the courtyard. Kirio loads the firework into his School Destroyer machine but suddenly realises Iruma is heading to the lab, somehow finding his way toward Kirio even though Kirio destroyed his necklace. A flashback reveals Asmodeus deduced Kirio must have been planning his attack for years and is now using a map of the school and one of Kirio's magical apparatus, copied by Clara, to guide Iruma through the barriers. Naberius identifies Kirio as the likely suspect and orders the teachers to capture him. Part of the school collapses and Amelie saves a student from being killed. Iruma finally reaches the lab. | |||
| 18 | "What I Want More Than Anything" Transcription: "Kokoro kara nozomu mono" (Japanese: 心から望むもの) | February 1, 2020 | |
| Iruma reaches the workshop where Kirio reveals he plans to use the firework to destroy the school. Kirio reveals the Ami family are famous for their barriers and magical strength, but when he was born with weak magic he was sent to the Garden of Delinquents for problem children. Despite being bullied he made a friend, but when bullies stole her earring and threw it in a river, Kirio tried to catch it with a barrier but failed, devastating her. That was when Kirio realised he perversely enjoyed watching peoples despair. Baal, who believed demons are too nice compared to their society's evil past, helped Kirio plan to destroy Babyls as a symbol of their weakened society while Kirio plans on enjoying Iruma's despair when Clara and Asmodeus die. However, when Iruma seems unconcerned and calmly removes the firework, Kirio is confused. Iruma explains that thanks to his childhood, he almost never feels despair anymore. Kirio realises he and Iruma are not alike at all. Iruma unlocks his rings Ifrit mode to throw the firework into the sky, but it hits the barrier. With the explosion seconds away Iruma breaks a promise he made to Sullivan and unlocks the rings Pandoroola mode, obliterating the barrier and exploding the firework in the sky where it delights all the watching students. With Iruma passed out Kirio saves him from falling off the roof, and despite raging that his plan is ruined he admits defeat and that Iruma is a better demon than he is. | |||

|
It is revealed that as Iruma was talking with Kirio Balse Robin used archery magic to shoot a warning note to Sullivan. Sullivan then broke out of prison and saw Iruma use Pandoroola to destroy the barrier, forcing Sullivan to save the school from falling debris. The teachers apprehend Kirio, though he does remind Iruma to beware of other demons wanting to an evil society. He is taken by Demon Border Control to be interrogated. Sullivan shows Iruma that his firework was immensely popular with the students, though he is scolded by Ameli who wanted to watch the firework together. Iruma shares credit for the firework with Asmodeus, Clara and Kirio. As the Battler party starts the students vote for their favourite Battlers just as their parents turn up for the party. Iruma prepares the remaining fireworks before meeting 4 of Clara's 5 siblings and her mother, who are all as eccentric as she is. Asmodeus is caught by his embarrassing mother, Amuryllis, a Demon Lord of Seduction, who showers Asmodeus with love and affection. Sullivan and Opera arrive to attend the festival with Iruma, causing general chaos as they do. As the sun sets they set off the fireworks and Iruma declares his new family to be his pride and joy before insisting on posing for a photograph with Sullivan and Opera. With the voting over the winner of the Battler Party is decided. | |||

The Closing Spectacular begins with the handing out of prizes. The Succubus Battler receives an upgraded club room, the New Magic Battler a year's supply of black holy water, while the grand prize of rank increases is given to the Broadcast Battler. Naberius announces that, for unspecified reasons, an extra award has been created, the prize for which is one member of the Battler will go up by one rank. The winners are announced to be the Magical Apparatus Battler, despite being disqualified due to Kirio's schemes, with Iruma getting the rank increase to Gimel, 3rd rank. Iruma worries he has spent too much time standing out instead of hiding. Ameli's father, Henri, takes an interest in Iruma. Ameli summons Iruma to read manga but rushes out after seeing her father. Henri confronts Iruma, not knowing why Sullivan is so attached to him. Henri tells Iruma he met a human once before and legally returned them to the human world. He begins to ask if Iruma wants to go home but is interrupted by Ameli, who recounts all Iruma's recent achievements and claims he is an outstanding demon. Suspicious, Henri asks how Ameli knows Iruma and she awkwardly blurts out they spend time alone talking about love, shocking Henri into semi-consciousness. Asmodeus and Clara tell Iruma they know something happened with Kirio, but they are happy to wait for Iruma to tell them. Iruma decides he does not want to return to the human world and must work harder at hiding his human identity. | |||
| 21 | "Dem-dol Kuromu-chan" Transcription: "Akudoru Kuromu-chan" (Japanese: アクドルくろむちゃん！) | February 22, 2020 | |
| Iruma's rank increase gets more newspaper coverage than Kuromu, a dem-dol. Asmodeus explains dem-dols are vital as teenage demons go through an "evil cycle" of destructive behaviour, so they are distracted by popular entertainment which converts their impulses into healthy excitement. Kuromu is revealed to be Crocell Keroli, a quiet girl from the misfit class who is embarrassed by her cute idol persona. Despite her siblings being better academically Crocell found that other demons treated her kindly because she was cute, so she became Kuromu to beat her siblings and earn a higher rank than her mother. However, since Iruma arrived he has been in the newspapers more often than her, making her jealous. At her next concert she furiously realises Iruma is in the audience, having received tickets from the Broadcast Battler. Coincidentally Iruma wins a ticket to meet Kuromu in person. A furious Crocell struggles to keep her identity a secret, however, Iruma already knew who she was due to her distinctive hands. As her glasses contain identity detection warding, Crocell decides Iruma must be a super-fan to notice such small details, but is surprised when Iruma admits he is jealous of how well she manages to stay hidden as he is tired of standing out by accident. Realising that Iruma is more popular than her without trying only makes Crocell more upset and she passes out with a fever from overusing her ice magic. | |||
| 22 | "Sparking Shock" Transcription: "Kirakira no Shōgeki" (Japanese: キラキラの衝撃) | February 29, 2020 | |
| Crocell’s manager, Mal, decides to cancel the show as cooling Crocell’s body back to normal requires a family member, none of whom will arrive in time. Ameli attends the concert with a ticket from her father, who is working security. Crocell has a nightmare about disappointing her family then wakes after she should have been on stage, only to realise Iruma saved the show by dressing as a girl and performing an opening act, with Clara and Asmodeus dressed as dem-dolls, in order to let Crocell recover. Ameli suspects the dem-dol on stage looks just like Iruma, but convinces herself it couldn’t be. Crocell realises Iruma, who hates standing out, was willing to go on stage to save her career and decides he isn’t so bad. She thanks Iruma for his help but then forces him to stay on stage performing for the entire concert. Afterwards Mal tells Crocell her entire family actually came to help while she was asleep, making her incredibly happy. Mal also secretly reveals to Iruma Crocell’s family love her and have watched every concert on TV; they just cannot come in person because they also pass out when overexcited. Back at school Crocell warns Iruma if he reveals her identity he will regret it. She also asks if they can still be friends, despite hating all the attention the female Iruma got in the newspapers. | |||

| Iruma predicts he will have a normal day. After breakfast with Sullivan he watches Asmodeus and Clara race to school, has homeroom with Naberius, and attends normal lessons. After school he reads Ameli more manga, which contains lines about keeping secrets. Ameli remembers the female dem-dol who looked like Iruma and nervously asks if he has anything bothering him, and he says he does not. Then when handing him a snack, she touches his hand and her heart beats wildly. Iruma goes home, has a bath, then dinner with Sullivan, then goes to bed, but suddenly realises he now fits into demon society, and worries it no longer bothers him. Iruma becomes unusually withdrawn as he considers the offer Henri made to erase his memory and send him home. Asmodeus and Clara decide food will cheer him up and sneak into the school kitchen, however they end up arguing and decide to both make meals and see which Iruma prefers. Clara misunderstands her mother’s claim love is the most important ingredient and lovingly crafts a bizarre meal, whereas Asmodeus decides on an elegant fish dish, despite having ichthyophobia. In the morning Iruma finds both dishes work together to become even tastier. Asmodeus and Clara are forced to agree after trying both dishes and declare it a draw after becoming friends again. Though, a few minutes later they are arguing again. Iruma decides he wants to stay in the Netherworld. | |||
