English Dub Review: Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun “Legend Leaf”

Overview

The Harvest Festival is coming to an end. Iruma and his friends have managed to obtain the Seed of Beginnings and the Vase of Endings. But they have no idea how to make the Legend Leaf bloom. Lead then remembers one of their old lessons with Suzie and remembers a certain spell… Iruma and Lead have exhausted their energy and mana at this point. Will they be able to successfully make the Legend Leaf bloom in the little time that they have?! Finally, the results are announced. Who will be the student who gets the title of Young King?

Our Take

It has been dragged in the middle but the show is back on track from the last few episodes and that’s everything.
Its strength is its characters and when they come together, it’s just best. I’m also tired of seeing them splitting the points. Nearly five full minutes were wasted on the Orobas winning bs that could have been easily avoided if either Iruma or Lead would have given their points to the other from the get-go.

And also, what’s with that extremely convoluted way to grow the Legend Leaf? I’m glad it’s ended, but I’m pretty sure it’s easier to have the planets aligning than following the conditions of such an absurd side quest. Now, this just makes the fact of Iruma winning “because of the plot” even more notorious than it already was…

Overall, this was a bit of a bittersweet ending. Everything didn’t have to drag and be so many episodes based on the arc. But with only 4 episodes of the season left, what exactly are they gonna do to finish this third season off? And what will it bloom into?
