Jashin-chan gets repeatedly destroyed in ways that somehow become funnier the more creative the brutality gets, and Yurine's deadpan delivery transforms casual murder into comedy gold. The show's real trick is making you genuinely care about a demon who exists purely to suffer, then spending entire episodes proving that suffering has a continuity and a logic all its own. This isn't comedy trying to be dark, it's darkness that discovered the joke and decided to stay.
Jashin-chan is stuck. Summoned to the human world by Yurine Hanazono, a gothic girl, the demon has no way home, because the grimoire used to call her never included a spell to send her back. Her answer is violence, but Yurine is physically formidable and dismembers her in inventive ways, which only Jashin-chan's ability to regenerate lets her survive. Yurine lets her stay in the apartment in return for chores, and the arrangement keeps leaving Jashin-chan in pieces. In this second season, Jashin-chan thinks back to the day she was summoned. Since she cannot return to Hell while Yurine lives, she writes Yurine's name in her "Death NOT" and vows to finally land her dropkick. Meanwhile Pino, a former subordinate of Pekora and Poporon, turns up. Pekora is thrilled, thinking God has sent someone to take her home, but Pino is holding a weapon. Adapted from Yukiwo's manga, it is a supernatural slapstick comedy with a slice-of-life setting.
