Introduction
In this world, angels, demons, and other supernatural beings peacefully coexist with humans. Neil Bowman is a demon who is unlike most; he is mesmerized with human culture, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't do anything evil. Thus, he runs away from Hell and up to Earth.
Neil moves in with his online friend and vampire, Ira Blood, along with Ira's many roommates. Despite coming to Earth to meet humans, Neil discovers that not a single one of his new roommates is actually human. Along with Ira, there's Lynn Angel, the stern angel landlord; Lynn's little sister, Lily, who falls from Heaven; Abu, a mummy who never speaks; and Vladimir Eliot Kirilenko, a werewolf tasked with monitoring Neil.
What most of them don't realize—not even Neil himself—is that Neil possesses the powers of the Demon King. What effect will this have on the residents of Apartment 1031 on All Saints Street?

This is such a cute little show with a similarly little following behind it. It is light hearted and interesting story with a unique art style and clean animation. The show is very easy to watch with the episodes not being too long which makes the show easy to binge in a sitting as well as pretty engaging. The story only really gets a distinctive plot around the later seasons as the first one is mostly the character introductions and world building. Each character has unique designs and personalities that really show when the characters interact with each other.
The show doesn't contain much action and is mostly just a slice of life anime with a few romance aspects later on. If you are someone who prefers fast pace shows with intense moments that leave no time for the characters to enjoy…

If I don't rewatch all available seasons of this show ever 6 months, I go crazy. That's how serious I am about this show.
Don't go in expecting plot. Here is the thing about the show: it takes some pretty major departures from the manhua. By that, I mean that it has a different plotline and timeline entirely. Don't fear, though! The show's plot is cute and is a good way to adapt the gag comedy style of the manhua into a show. That being said, it's still mostly gag comedy loosely strung together by the show-only plotline.
This is a 10/10 watch for anyone who enjoys mythical creatures/cryptids in modern urban settings doing goofy stuff. The comedy is pretty top tier (to me). Hell is literally just Australia in this universe, folks. That's good stuff right there.
If you are not into gag c…

This show is perfect at what it sets out to do. It sets out to be a light series of comedic vignettes that chronicle the journeys of a newcomer through the streets of a new city (Beijing-esque) - and it succeeds fabulously at that. The animation is perfect for the story's tone, and the writing, while not particularly ground-breaking, is above average. While it is not high art, I recommend watching it with friends or in short bits. Perfect for playing in the background at family gatherings.
I particularly enjoy the writing of the side characters. While Neil is an archetypical cinnamon roll and is written as such, the characterization of Nick as the "bad boy" and where they choose to go from it is very good. I feel that Lynn and his straight-laced approach to life play very well with the sc…

I recently finished this donghua after leaving it on hold for over a year. And after finishing it I found that I put watching this show off for far too long!
All Saints Street is a very cozy found family donghua. The demon king, Neil (Nini) decides to move from hell to the human world since he’s interested in the culture. After coming to the apartment that his friend, Ira, told him he could live in, he discovers that the two other people living there are also supernatural beings. Lynn, the angel, and Abu, the mummy. Later on Vladimir, the werewolf, and Lily, another angel, also move into the apartment. The series follows the daily shenanigans the tenants of apartment 1031 face as they live their lives.

[SPOILER-FREE REVIEW]
Okay, I'm usually very sharply critical about anime. I rarely give shows a score above 6, especially if they're short, but this one's an exception. I love this show!
For people who have been paying attention to east-asian anime outside of Japan for around the past 2 years, it should come as no surprise that China of all places has really been knocking it out of the ballpark lately in terms of production quality and polish. Wan Sheng Jie, despite having very short episodes (Only 4 minutes each!), manages to perfectly capture what it sets out to accomplish. Since anything I say might be spoilers due to the length, I'll keep this review short, as well.

An absolutely underrated gem. While not technically anime, it's sure to capture the attention of any anime fan looking for a casual series to put on, and I'm frankly surprised it hasn't garnered more of a following.
It invokes the storytelling and pacing of Hetalia, while maintaining a far classier presentation both in taste in humor and visual style. The characters are fun and loveable (a wholesome demon? a buff dog boy? vampire gamer???), and are presented through stellar visuals. The animation is outstanding- it exceeds what you would expect from a typical animated series (let alone a web series), and uses its budget wisely between action shots and simpler shots for comedic effect.
If you have an hour to spare, I highly recommend giving season 1 a watch- that is, if you don't hop dir…

Dude... this is hilarious. I mean it really is. Even though it's full of super short stories, the characters are all very unique and fun to watch. Especially just them being themselves.
Now this isn't by any means some deep show that makes you cry and it doesn't have complicated plot points. It's just short and humorous. But it really is funny!
Honestly, I didn't realize at first why it was 1031 out of every number... Even though I knew the "Wan Sheng Jie" is a play on "Wan Sheng Jie" --> 万圣街 vs 万圣节 (one is the name of the anime, the second is "Halloween") --> and 1031 naturally stands for October 31, but anyway. Yes. Nice and punny.
There's even a whole world destroying event in the future! But no worries, our gang of roommates and their landlord will successfully save the world! Right…

This is the most underrated show of 2020. A hidden gem that desperately needs to be shared and discussed more. It is so funny without being forced. Every character is amazingly well designed visually and integrally. The music is great and creates such a fun ambiance. I genuinely enjoyed this so much, even though the episodes are four minutes long, I felt like I had just watched a full-fledged episode at the end; it was that satisfying. I would recommend this show to anyone, young or old, male or female shounen or shoujo fan anyone.
This is the best short anime I've ever seen bar non and it can actually compete in my top 25 anime of all time even with how short it is, I literally cannot recommend this high enough. Go watch if you haven't yet.

I really enjoy the premise of this anime and it's art style really sets it apart from the rest. the Characters are quirking and play off of each other really well. My only issue is that the episodes are really, really short so you only get small snippets of story which isn't that satisfying if you watch it weekly. If they had even made the episodes 10min long that would have gone a long way to solving the problem. However, if you are able to watch all the episodes at once, I don't even think it would take you an hour, it is a chill and funny experience.
