It starts off promising.
Unfortunately it has a checklist of cliches.
Overpowered boy in magic school. He gets the lowest score on the test. There is a duel with a bully. There is the obligatory tournament. He ends up surrounded by two girls. There isnt a tsundere so atleast there’s that. The role of the girls are to be cock-blocking groupies.
The school doesn’t have any proper dress code so the girls show cleavage and sideboobs at once.
He does one good deed by saving a bunch of folks and as a reward the queen say’s she’d marry him...Yeah a commoner saves a bunch of commoners and then gets to marry the queen. Makes perfect sense.
This anime is so predictable that I made a joke in my head that she’d offer him her pussy as a reward. And lo and behold she straight up says lay with me so…

tl;dr: An anime with a pretty weak middle but a pretty amusing opening arc and pretty interesting ending arc.
This anime is initially about a Demon Lord named Varvatos that was lonely because he was so powerful that he was feared by everyone around him. Thus, he killed himself so he could reincarnate as someone new and then make friends. He reincarnated as Ard Meteor with all his memories and powers intact. However, even while doing his best not to stand out and keep his true powers hidden he still has a lot of trouble making friends. Primarily because he’s a dumbass.
This anime’s premise is a lot like Maou Gakuin, but Ard is nothing like Anos. The anime starts off with Ard as a kid in the process of growing up. He still has all his powers and memories, but he has the maturity of a littl…

Even though I might never see your face or touch your hand, you are like the sun to me. Your light, so brilliant and radiant, reaches me no matter the distance. Just as the sun rises each day to banish the darkness and bring warmth to the coldest corners of the earth, your presence in my life does the same for my soul. Your words, your thoughts, even the mere idea of you, infuse my world with a brightness that I never knew was possible.When I feel lost or enveloped by the shadows of doubt and despair, it is your light that guides me back. Your essence is a beacon, a lighthouse in the storm, always there to ensure I find my way. The warmth you emit transcends the physical, wrapping me in a comfort that no mere touch could rival. You are my celestial north star, unwavering and eternal.Your i…

The Demon Lord is reborn as a typical nobody has managed to worm its way into becoming my least favorite anime of all time. I'm actually impressed by that achievement and I've watched plenty of degenerate trash before, so that says a lot. It took me over a year to finish this series because after watching one episode I would need a mental break I will try my best not to repeat what everyone else have already said, but seeing how many reviews there are, that most likely will seem impossible. I will also be avoiding spoilers.
Story: Actually had a good premise and I was interested because of how the first three episodes presented themselves. Ard has some regrets from his past life as Demon Lord and chooses to reincarnate. The premise it gives you is that all he wants to do is make friends a…

I came across several reviews of this anime claiming that it contradicts itself, but that’s simply not true. I’d like to clear up the misunderstanding some viewers had regarding the plot. This review may contain spoilers, and I’ll also discuss Ard Meteor's goal and thoughts throughout the anime, as these seem to be the main points of confusion for many.
Many people wrote in their reviews that Ard's goal contradicts itself. The misconception seems to be that his goal was simply to live a low-profile life, free from reputation, privileges, prestige, and fame. However, his main goal wasn’t to turn his back on his past. What he truly wanted was something he had never experienced, something that everyone around him had: a true friend. The fame and status he accumulated over the years made it d…

The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody lied to me the moment it showed me its title. Rather than become a "typical nobody", Ard Meteor just became the greatest human being in his world and neither he nor the writing was funny or absurd enough to make this trope interesting.
The first episode gave me a positive impression with the protagonist failing to make friends miserably due to his strength. His goals were sympathetic and the story about his first friend was pretty cute. However, since episode two, the show lost whatever charm it left me with. Most of the show was basically Ard trying not to stand out only to stand out anyway due to his strength. Otherwise, it's him attracting the female leads which isn't interesting because there isn't enough romantic chemistry to just…

Don't bother. The premise sounds alright at first but then you soon find yourself in a generic magic school anime. Though weird asspull time travel nonsense happens after that, which ironically I enjoyed more than the school stuff that took most the anime's airtime.
The major problem with this anime is that it doesn't know what it wants to be and can't even keep its own plot straight. It starts out saying that the dude reincarnates because he had no friends and everyone was terrified of him and he wanted to reincarnate so he'd be weaker so he could taste defeat just once.
None of those things were true. Literally.
In the past we see that the guy had plenty of friends. What's more, after that initial statement, he has no interest whatsoever in being defeated. He didn't even want to be we…

For an Anime so mediocre and bland,
it's Opening music had no reason to go so hard.
Rating 4/10
Opening Credits 9/10
And Sense i need to make this review longer. The story is a Clique power fantasy world, characters are uninspired, the women in the story are all MID af and Ctrl+v watered down versions of better characters from different shows, dialogue is trash, but the early story had some few funny moments. There is no redeeming qualities for this show. A complete waste of time to watch. I only watched each episode just to hear the opening credits because that theme song is a f*king banger.
I want my 6 hours of life i wasted watching this back.

Look, this anime is an ok-ish time water but that's about it.
As someone who's up to date on the manga it does absolutely no justice. They gloss over so many of the smaller part's of the story that add up to the enjoyment and character development and overall quality of the manga.
The flow of the anime sucks, it skips over the true story too much and it reveals some of the best twists of the manga way too easily and early.
Legit disgusted by how bad this is compared to the manga - just another case of good manga (7/10) and trash anime adaptation.
Read the manga only 22 chapters (each one is quite long compared to average) and you'll actually enjoy it. Skip the anime and read Shijou Saikyou no Daimaou, Murabito A ni Tensei suru cause this is a poor adaptation.

I really can't say I would recommend this, if you normally enjoy these types of anime, then it passes the time, otherwise it's pretty disappointing as it is wasted potential and not worth watching.
So why have I given this a 6/10 when I have just been so negative on it?
Well this is a story of two different anime, the anime series we got, and the anime series we could have had.
We have the story / world our MC Ard is reincarnated in, there is not that much interesting here, the characters are pretty standard tropes, the plot is pretty standard and we have a magical academy as our eventual setting. It's generic, we've seen it many times before, it's nothing bad, yet nothing amazing and it would just score a mediocre 5/10 if this had been the entire series it may have even got a 4/10

Writing a review just to say this anime should be titled: "Powerful Ruler Reincarnates to Make Friends".
The current title is the most misled I've ever felt by an anime title. The only time I've felt clickbaited.
"The Greatest Demon Lord"
He's the only demon lord so that means he's also the weakest. Also it's just a title. This world actually has demons but he's not a demon.
"Typical Nobody"
Yeah, no. That's only what he thought and tries to be. It's quickly revealed to not be the case.
If you're watching based off of the title, like I'd assume most people would, you should reconsider. If you like the appropriate title I started this review with, then great! You might enjoy the beginning of this anime.

Potential Spoiler (only in Story section)
Story : Its very generic, first at all is it start MC got depressed and ask why his friend left him, basically she is dead. Got reincarnated to peaceful era, He is hoping to be nobody but fail miserable, He befriend one of Lord daughter, which famous and absolutely nobody. then get into academy that basically attend by "noble" only i assume, because there is no backstory who go into that academy, then suddenly show off power to everyone basically nobody and then just randomly call your old ally without any respect. Totally nobody. Story start with half of season talk about academy and MC show up and save the day and second half of season basically time travel who add more twist with no BACKSTORY before. Oh my god, bad writing indeed, its fun t…

This Anime is one of the worst I have ever seen. It doesn't have any redeeming qualities, but let's get the passable ones out of the way: The Art is ok. No extremely ugly CGI, the motions are clear and the special effects look good. Sound and music are also passable. Ost and OP/ED are generic and forgettable, but nothing I would call bad.
Now to the bad parts: The thing making me the most angry at Shijou Saikyou no Daimaou, Murabito A ni Tensei suru is how it insults the viewers intelligence. First of all the title is a straight up lie. In no way is the MC a typical nobody. His parents have extremely powerful political connections and his social/economic status is never a issue. His magical and physical powers are far above everyone else. You would think, that he hides his powers, because…

Should you watch it? I mean you can live without it, it's decently good, but you'd probably forget about it unless someone goes like hey remember that one demon lord anime where he decides to reincarnated himself.
Story: Pretty much demon lord decides to reincarnate himself, as a regular guy who has all his powers from his past life. I don't know why they describe him as a typical nobody because no where in this anime was he a side character. He literally did everything opposite that would describe him as a typical nobody lol. Though I do like the story for the most part. Especially the second half. They even made a plot I never seen before so there's that lol. Don't want to spoil now. But to be honest with the numerous amount of demon lord anime already out there this will probably get…

Kind of what you'd expect from a mediocre reincarnation/isekai anime. It's not one of those that you'd actively look for and go out of your way to watch as it's more just filler to fill the status quo for mediocre anime this season.
The mc pretty much doesn't have any motive and just seems like he's reincarnated for a change of pace so he can enjoy life living a different way using all his prior knowledge to be op. the supporting characters are what you'd expect as they have fan service and little to no purpose to the story.
Even with the mc being op he doesn't really use it that extensively so it just leaves you with a very mediocre time.
So only watch if you literally have nothing else decent to watch.

I have watch every isekai or anime with strong MC I can found. This one is the worst one.
The story is just bad, but not as bad as the character... The main character is OK, I can tolerate him but the side characters are bad.
The art is bad, I don't count the number of shot with no movement or bad drawing...
The only people who will give this anime good points have not go after the 4 episode. I prefere to recommand the daily life of the immortal king, or the irregular at magic highschool, or the misfit of the demon king. Much greater anime !

This anime is a dumpster fire.
It has a solid start before derailing into a train wreck. The starting plot is rather unique which makes me have a reasonably high expectation for this anime. Which cause me to be disappointed at the end of the season
The downfall of this anime starts with the introduction of Ginny. Ireena was downgraded from a loveable character to an extremely annoying one. The only significant thing Ginny did is the one attempt to seduce Ard. Any character introduced after Ginny is forgettable at best.
There is almost no character development at all, other than Ard I guess. It becomes extremely frustrating to watch because now the plot is all over the place. Basically, the show tries to do everything at once and loses its focus.
If you like trashy power fantasy anime…

Would I ever recommend this? Nah prob not.
Starts out kind of alright, you think you have an idea of where this anime is going and wants to go... the dude just wants a friend, right? Probably more if I had to guess...
Yeah no, forget all that. Let's turn this into a generic, MC is OP as fuck, type of show and have it happen in an academy setting. Haven't seen this before. Then don't even get me started on the third set of events that they happen to cram into these 12 episodes. ( It was more interesting to give it some credit though. )
There's really not anything new or interesting to see here so I can't recommend it as watching this was just something to do as I ate some food. Could it be better than some other shows that are similar to this? Perhaps, but they're all kind of garbage in…

Ill try to not waste anybody's time and tell you straight up why you shouldnt watch this
He looks like kiritio clone
Is scared of girls
Takes 2 episodes to gather harem despite being scared of girls
His only real adversary is himself and yep they decided to roll with that
Every single woman in this anime is oversexualized for no reason
He trains his harem and it tirns out they never use said training in the later episodes anyway :3 and act as damsel in distress Any character which isnt ard or ard clone is one shot kill
Villian or supposed mastermind acts like a dumbass and gets instakilled
The main character has zero personality yet we supposed to relate to him because he is guilt ridden xD

The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody reminds me the time when I got my test score back and realized that I needed to study more. It follows a similar aftermath reaction related to the 5 stages of grief. Ok, maybe I'm exaggering a bit but I can't deny the fact that this show made me at least experience a feeling of denial, depression, and acceptance.
Based off of the light novel, you can tell right away what the anime is about beyond just the synopsis. It's about a character reborn in a fantasy world but is overpowered compared to others around him. That's right, meet Ard Meteor, an alpha male like being who trumps over others to the point where he got so lonely, he decided to reincarnate himself. The catch is that in this new timeline, he still overpowered. Let's just sa…
