I'm using this to review all the seasons and OVAs since I'm not about that "um actually the second season is a different show" BS because "um actually it's all the same show"
With that out of the way, I love this show and it's super entertaining, but also in the awkward spot of being a kind of janky adaptation of the manga, to the point where it works better as a compliment to it than a straight adaptation, so maybe read the source material first. Episode one is actually around chapter 58 or so of the manga and they skip almost every character introduction and even the inciting incident that kicks things off in the first place which means viewers who haven't read the manga will feel a bit lost. The basic premise is sort of "Ultra-violent Tom & Jerry crossed with Seinfeld but with demons a…

Don’t hate but also don’t really care for this sort of anime. It’s just not my thing. I can sometimes do gag humor and cute girls doing cute stuff, but i don’t know if it’s the cast or what, but I was not jelling with it.
I would say character designs are pretty strong, along with the animation in general. But I think the characterization just also isn’t for me. Feels more obnoxious than funny personally. I can’t really enjoy it all on its own.
The voice work is also just fine. Not particularly noticeably good or bad either way from my viewing.
Some gags and episodes in the season were fine but others just dragged and I was totally not having a good time.

Jashin-chan Dropkick is a show for anyone who likes characters with bad, irredeemable, one note personalities and no story development whatsoever.
The show is basically a gory buddy comedy about a chuuni gothic lolita girl named Yurine and a devil snake girl named Jashin that she apparently summoned. Jashin wants to return to her home (hell) but has to kill Yurine to do that. But she sucks at her attempts to do so and gets brutally punished for it by Yurine who is also a massive sadist.
For me this show has not a single good vibe, it's toxic all around, which completely muffles every attempt at comedy. Yurine is cringily cool, skilled and collected at all times and enjoys to hurt Jashin. Jashin loud, overconfident, clumsy and mean, but she is basically Yurines kidnapping victim and gets…

I really did like the first couple of episodes. The mix of sol comedy with a cast of psychopathic characters and over-the-top (censored) violence where none of the two main characters are actually "good" or "wholesome" proved to be really engaging and like a breath of fresh air... until they actually became good and wholesome and the psychopathic sides of their characters were dumbed down to frivolous mean-spirited quirks. It's still not bad, it's just becomes "nothing special." It becomes another slice of life comedy with a cast of quirky characters, which is not bad in its own right. It's just a bit disappointing after that great first couple of episodes. If they ramped up Yurine and Jashin-chan's hysterical psychopathic attitude as the show went on, it could've become something truly sp…

This show is quite-a PARTY!!!! It's quite Metal!!!! It's about Yurine Hanazono, a girl from a family of Witches, who is interested in Black Magic & the Dark Occult. One day she decides to attempt summoning something from hell, & during the ceremony, she summons the great Jashin-Chan! Jashin realizes that Yurine basically summoned her for no reason, & she has no way to get back unless either her or the master dies. From there, every episode is about Jashin attempting to kill her with her Dropkick or, ''!!!!ROYAL COPENHAGEN!!!!'' She eventually tries multiple ways to kill her which obviously will never work, each episode. This anime's art style is quite addictive & cute! I love IT! It's technically not perverted but it is? It's a weird thing. I'd recommend it for anyone above 15+. You have t…

Ok, I was surprised to discover that this show was a huge hit everywhere that people wanted another season of it. I found this when I was strolling through Amazon Prime, honestly and completely unaware of its existence and how, thanks to crowdfunding according to MAL, another season is in possible production.
So, a demon that gets sent to Earth through a summoning ritual by a girl obsessed with dark magic. Of course, the objective for Jashin-chan is to kill her summoner so she can return to hell but has a hard time assassinating her.
I had a good time watching the show; it's one of the shows where you may or may not get used to Jashin-chan dying most of the time. Since it's the case with some shows, I'm used to it.
What I liked:
Definitely one of gore fans; sometimes it won't appeal…

The classic mantra of “Watch three episodes before deciding to drop an anime” saved this one for me. (Though realistically it was more like four or five.)
Dropkick On My Devil has a rough start. Literally — it drops you right into the story with no explanation. Hopefully you read the synopsis, but even if you did it’s a stilted introduction. From there, it plays out like you’d expect from reading the synopsis: Jashin-chan tries to kill Yurine in some way, fails, then gets a gory punishment. There are things like supporting character interactions to make each section long enough, but that’s the general gist of it…but only to a point.
If you’re coming here to see how many murder ideas and fatalities the writer could come up with, you won’t get much of that here.
Before getting into that…

This sho is good if you want background noise and the occasional laugh. Most of the show has no real plot just goth girl getting pissed at snake girl. the only thing that is really different is how bad of a personality the snake girl has. Most characters with that bad of personality have a reason like being jealous or lonely, ect. But this girl is just mean I would want to kill her just like goth girl. The other characters are also really basic not real depth to them.
once again this show is good background noise thats it really.

The story revolves around one of our main characters Yurine who has summoned the Demon Jashin-chan to Earth with no way to return her other then Yurine dying. Unfortunately for Jashin-chan her attempts in killing Yurine come up short constantly. Resulting in an hilarious outcome to which Yurine tortures Jashin-chan in different ways.
There's no real story to this anime, and you are basically watching it for the interesting characters and comedy.
The art and animation was different but I saw no major flaws with it.
The opening and ending were really good. Very upbeat and Super fun.
I actually found all the characters enjoyable...yes including Jashin-chan. Even though she was annoying most of the time she showed her soft side as well. Especially when dealing with Pekola on a certain few a…

A gothic lolita witch, named Yurine, summons a demon snake girl from hell, named Jashin, to the human world. Jashin can’t go back to hell unless she kills Yurine, but until then, they’re living together. This is the basic synopsis of the Summer 2018 season’s, Jashin-chan no Dropkick! Jashin-chan no Dropkick is described by MAL as a supernatural comedy show, complete with demons, angels, and all of hell’s creatures on earth participating in this fun slapstick, bloody, slice of life adventure.
Jashin-chan no Dropkick is the newest addition to the newish genre known as monster girls. The 3 major demon girls, Jashin, Medusa, and Minosu, have the qualities of their mythical creature counter parts. Jashin wears no clothes and has the bottom of a snake, much like Miia from Monster Musume, with b…

Considering how often I've said "Thanks Satan" in an almost serious manner when watching this show, I think that's actually quite telling of what it means to watch this.
Story:
One day, Hanazono Yurine, a girl who dresses as a chunni goth loli, decided to do a satanic ritual and summon a demon from hell. From the ritual, she summons the titular Jashin-chan, a backstabbing lamia who due to being pulled out of her home against her will, is hellbent on committing manslaughter in order to break the contract and get back home. But since this is a slapstick comedy, it does not go quite exactly to plan.
First thing to note, while Jashin-chan Dropkick the anime is a close adaptation to its parent manga, there are many differences to note that make it different and by extension, less friendly…

[My rereview of Jashin-chan Dropkick. Last review I only saw 5 episodes, now I have seen all of them]
One anime that I had a ton of mixed feelings about was Gabriel Dropout. It was a cute slice of life comedy centered around two demons and two angels living with each other. It was pretty good overall, but it had some big issues like unlikable characters and some cringy moments. Jashin-chan Dropkick is basically Gabriel Dropout, but instead of focussing on the character interactions it focuses on something else. What is that something else I am talking about? Well, get chainsaws and bank accounts ready, this is my review of Jashin-chan Dropkick.
Story: 7/10
In this universe demons and angels come to earth to do things that are never showed or explained. Jashin-chan is summoned into the w…

Jashin-chan Dropkick, yes Jashin-chan Dropkick. One of the series that has defined the cultural slice of life comedy series of the last generation in the history of anime. This is a series that has changed significantly over the past summer.
What I love 'bout Jashin-chan Dropkick is the whole “devil aspect” of the show. Every technique had substance, quality and all of the assassination arcs really shown the defining elements of how devils worked within the Jashin-chan universe. These qualities are something I will soon not forget. I know a lot of people complain about Jashin-chan Dropkick being a half-ass wit that can’t do anything Or perhaps Pekora being useless. But in a way, I look at the series as being a little different, especially in the developing of characters.

A snake demon, medusa and a minotaur walks into a teenager's apartment room...
Jashin-chan Dropkick is to be honest, a fairly typically slapstick comedy anime, with all the knicks and running gags you'd expect. If there was a likely comparison LA would put on Jashin-chan Dropkick, then it would be in a similar comedic genre as Gabriel Dropout, heck they even have the entire angels and demon thing, character degrading jokes, just swap out the main protagonist wanting to have a NEET life with the main protagonist now wanting to kill her summoner in order to go back to hell and failing every chance she gets. Both animes really have the slapstick comedy down just that Jashin-chan Dropkick being in the more physically violent compared to Gabriel Dropout's more verbal insults.
OK, so compariso…

This show was very enjoyable for someone who likes comedy slice of life style anime. It has it's flaws on the story, the biggest one, for me, being the devil girl who is searching for Jashin-chan but due to comical reasons never finds her, and only gets a small glimpse of her in the last episode, it's funny, but it left me questioning what the point of this charter is.
Another thing I found confusing in the the story is that it was never explained, unless you watch the theme song (which I skipped at first), how Yurine summoned Jashin-chan into the world, and instead, the first episode was just a normal episode that focused on the events after Yurine summoned Jashin-chan.
Other than that, I honestly enjoyed the show, and would definitely recommend it if you're bored and want to binge on…

Flavor text: Quick, and to the pointless.
Jashin-chan Dropkick is about a naked snek-girl who’s trying to kill and adorable goth loli. She fails and gets horrifically brutalized by chainsaws and knives and iron maidens and moe snow creatures and other similarly terrifying weapons. If that doesn’t sound fun to you then turn 360 degrees and moonwalk away, because that’s about half the show.
I’m the type that enjoys ridiculous, over-the-top violence. While No Dropkick on Snek doesn’t contain any real detail with its violence, the implication is good enough to sell it. Particularly because the one inflicting such violence is doing it with an evil grin on her cute face, because Snake-chan is a fucked up individual who actually deserves it, and because the animation is actually quite good for…

In the season of intense comedies, Jashin-chan Dropkick is the no man's road followed, the black sheep of the genre with the comedic supernatural "violence and gore" aesthetic. Despite all this, you know it's legitimately bad when straight at Episode 1, the producers don't even care to open to us about the characters and their traits, and just straight dives into the comedy action.
For this reason alone, there are 2 camps: the enjoyment and frustration factors.
If you enjoy this series (like myself), the jokes are few yet decent, the many parodies it tries to imitate with the slapstick comedy. Other than the misplacements of the jokes and such that I willing to forgive, this is yet a decent move in the right direction.
If you hate this series (like everyone else who dropped the ball at th…
