Kyo Kara Maoh!
DVD 5
As Kyo kara Maoh! motors past the twenty-episode mark, Yuri's bizarre boy-meets-boy adventure settles into a comfortable pattern. Perhaps too comfortable—gone is the initial hilarity of discovering the Demon Kingdom's quirks, or the danger of falling into a world-traversing toilet, or even the subtle romantic tension between Yuri and his courtiers. Instead it becomes a cookie-cutter quest with the usual foes and fighting. Whatever happened to the spark that made this series so oddly amusing?
