BORING
An interesting concept for an anime, but where nothing happens. Its an anime about nothing. But its no Seinfeld.
Its a good concept: A very strong high-school delinquent is chosen to raise the future demon overlord.
But every episode feels like filler. Every episode feels the same. And the story just drags on. The characters wont shut the fck up and just get to the point.
Everything is exaggerated. Its a bunch of exaggerated faces, and exaggerated emotions, and exaggerated shyness.
The characters are always screaming its so obnoxious. Listening to this anime is a pain on my ears.
And the worse thing about this anime is the lack of actual action. There are no real fight scenes. No choreography. All the good stuff happens off screen.
This anime is a waste of time.

Beelzebub is a slapstick comedy around teenage delinquents and a baby which will become the demon lord when it grows up. The story is by far the weakest part as it is aimless. Nothing is going on in terms of on-going plot and all conflicts are solved easily and superficially. It gets even worse when you get a man like Takamoto Nobuhiro to direct it. His roster is nothing but a long line of pitiful titles (with the exception of Record of Lodoss War, which is rather watchable just for the kitch factor).
Production values are average to good, albeit worse than the artwork in the manga version. As if the animators lack funds, lots of scenes are done very simplistic and you end up feeling half the excitement of the manga. The studio who made this is basically a branch of Pierrot Studio, where…

60 Episodes is always nice, But the problem series had more quantity rather than quality episodes. As for series stricly aim for humor and story quality, and story for all it felt it was strenched out the problem was that humor not always "funny" sometimes even cringy
Story:
Story is quite hit or miss since it it has like 6-8 arc in it. So basically story always change, 1. Was Like introduction it contrantly was annoying trying to bring out humor by making beezle shoot electricity goddamn that was annoying and tiresome to the point you know whats going to happen...
2 3 and so on was quite interesting probable from ~28 till 40 when show showed its peak and was really good to the point of really enjoying show like in the score of 8.5
Last arc was like already feeling like strenched out seri…

Don't waste your time watching Beelzebub. It is 60 episodes of boring stories and nothing interesting nor funny. I gave Beelzebub a 3/10 overall.
The story, which I wouldn't even call it, was terrible. The concept is interesting, but the story goes no where. When I first started watching the anime I enjoyed it quite a bit. However, I was expecting them to go into Hell and go on some crazy adventure. None of that happened. It was just the main character, Tatsumi Oga, taking care of a demon baby and going to his delinquent school.
The art was standard anime art and there isn't much to say about it.
The openings and endings were alright but nothing to special. The background music in the anime was dreadful and I despised it. It was the same music over and over again. I sometimes hear Beelz…

Overall View (For Those With Busy Lives): Beelzebub is a great comedy anime with tons of gags which will have you laughing for hours. All the characters get their time to shine and crack a line while the animation is used to great effect for the OTT facial expressions and crazy loud effects that a show like this needs. The biggest drawback of the series is the increasing weight given to the initially unimportant shounen/action elements which are then completely ignored and gotten rid of by the end even though significant time given to these elements suggest that serious developments will occur.
Story: This is where the show really falls apart particular in episodes 57-60 which have some of the worst pacing and toning issues I have seen in an anime of far. The basic synopsis provides plen…

Okay, there comes a time when you might begin to take animes too seriously. You see yourself overthinking events that occur or you take characters words seriously and begin to reflect on them. This eventually becomes REALLY tiring later on.I took Beelzebub as a breadth of fresh air from all this seriousness and I found meself VERY entertaining and relaxing anime.
You must have read the synopsis, so you can guess what its about. The execution however is amazing!!! Surprisingly, this anime develops a really nice plot as the show progresses and there are tons of funny moments to keep you smiling throughout half the show.
I really enjoyed this anime because its really funny, has interesting characters and a pretty decent story to boot. Watch this if you feel like relaxing :-)

Plot/Story: 10/10 I just want to start off by saying that this anime is SO fucking funny. You'll be laughing in the first five minutes. Unless you know......you don't have a sense of humor. Super original and unique plot. You got this yakuza looking guy looking after a baby. I mostly watched this just for the comedy.

Art: 8/10 Very good art. Not too shabby.

Sound: 9/10 Nice voices. The baby's voice is adorable.

Characters: 9/10 Super likable characters. Most of them are so funny. Decent character de…

After reading this summary, I wanted to watch Beelzebub right away. Few seconds into the show, I was hooked on it. The comedy is great from the start and the plot is very interesting. At first, I thought some things were repetitive, but I think that they were able to make up for it. I really enjoyed the artwork, just the visual alone made it very comedic. Overall, I think the humor was the best part, and if you also like action, you won't be disappointed either. I think the voice actors were also great. It was surprising to learn that Beelzebub was voiced by a girl, but it's always surprising when it comes to anime anyways. The voice actor for Tatsumi Oga was probably the best, in my opinion.

Although comedy is not my favorite genre, this is a rare exception. Even with a large part of the show being action related, the comedy of it shines through.
If you have seen the show, you know that the story is about a man who is suddenly gifted a strange baby. What follows is a story involving his close friends, a "maid", and the students at various high schools.
The interesting part of this show is how some characters bounce off of each other, and the fact that the characters are very self aware.
This show is not meant to be taken seriously, but it does have some lighthearted and charming moments. Overall it is a very good watch, but it does have some detractions.
The show becomes unfocused and more action oriented as it progresses, and shifts the focus from demons, which is the…

I really love how this manga and anime is turning out.
You think it might be boring because it is just your average high school delinquent who goes around beating people up to be the best, but can you imagine that kind of generic storyline is definitely awesome !
It is that kind of humorous trait in this manga that makes it special.
I would also be very much surprised if you did not even find one joke or gag humorous or funny. Usually making light humour in a serious life or death situation is done badly, like bleach. But Beelzebub does it really great, so much so it is natural like One Piece. In the end read it for the awesome fights!
I hope can Get another season or continuing ! :')

"Let me tell you something good—Beel won’t destroy the human world, do you know why? It’s because I’m his parent, I won’t ever let him do something this stupid." - Tatsumi Oga
I shall go straight into this, hopefully it's an alright review.
Story: There are many stories about devils/Satan and such, but this one is a bit different. Satan sends his baby to Earth to pick a strong person who then will raise him to be able to destroy Humans. He then picks Oga Tatsumi, a delinquent, and faces many tough challenges of raising Beel.
Art: The art of Beelzebub was nice. Good colors, backgrounds, details, and the faces the characters will sometimes make are priceless. I don't really have any negatives on the art.
Sound:The first opening was very catchy, and I really enjoyed it. The voice actors…

A freakin' hilarious series, that i only wish lasted longer. Damn, the creators seriously must be on something, or else how do you explain so much creativity in between character relations, that were just PRICELESS.
The story starts about Oga, a badass in school who finds a child, that turns out to be a devil. From there he must become as powerful as he can with the help of his adopted son Beelzebub to destroy all human specie. Without too much spoiling, the story is ok for the most part and its really great that all the characters are connected through episodes. Apart from that, this is not the reason to watch it, but can be interesting to those shounen fans.
The art for the most parts is good and is amazing at showing characters funny situations and i was never turned off by its overal…

The story follows Tatsumi Oga, a first year student at a school for juvenile delinquents called Ishiyama High. The story starts with Oga telling his best friend, Takayuki Furuichi, the strange story of how he found a baby. One day while doing 'laundry' by the river, Oga saw a man floating downstream. Oga pulled him to shore but the man split in half, revealing a baby boy inside. This baby turned out to be the son of the great demon king, and Oga has been chosen as the one to raise him, along with the baby's maid, Hilda. The manga follows Oga's life as he tries to raise the child while enrolled at Ishiyama High.
In the early chapters, he attempts to 'pass on' Beel to other students at Ishiyama, thinking that if he can find someone stronger and more evil than himself, the baby will attach h…

Raising a baby isn't as easy as some people might make it seem, especially if the child is the son of the Demon King. His urination has the power to flood the entire country of Japan, oh and make sure to stay within 15 meters of the baby otherwise you will suffer an electrical shock that will instantly electrocute the life out of you.
Beelzebub is a 60 episode anime series following the high school delinquent protagonist, Oga Tatsumi, whom one day sees a big guy floating down the river, split in half, and is thus given the responsibility of raising the demon baby, Baby Beel. A pretty crazy way to introduce the anime right? Well that's just the beginning. Accompanied by the demon maid, Hilda, and the dimensional transporter, Alaindelon, Baby Beel has been sent to the human world to destroy…

Beelzebub: A Teenaged Baby Daddy
This review might contain a few spoilers so caution when reading.
I encountered Beelzebub when a friend told me that I will laugh my pants off if I watched it. So I gave it a try and this is what I can say.
STORY (8): Its about Oga Tatsumi, a delinquent in Ishiyama High School who is chosen to be the "parent" of a Demon Lord baby who will eventually wipe out the human race. And he's doing everything he could to remove that pact. I think the plot of the show is okay with very common elements like the demons, babies and delinquents but in this age, a very original plot is very hard to craft. I thought the anime started really strong. Character meetings are very hilarious and unforgettable. The problem came when the series is nearing its conclusion. The de…

This anime started out great. It has a lot of comedy that works well. In fact it was the comedy that really drove it for me. There is a story of sort, but the storyline is the weakest element in this series. The idea is great, but all in all it's a fair delivery at best.
The main character is an incredibly strong delinquent. The connection he forms with Beel is pretty solid, and their relationship is key to the story. The supporting characters are all delinquents as well, and though they have a lot of humor they are all lacking. The fight scenes build up to be a little disappointing, and a lot of great ideas just fall short. By no means is this a bad series, it's just missing something. Though I loved the comedy at first, it all became a little monotonous.
I wouldn't recommend skipping…

About the STORY
Another story about gangs and delinquents. The only difference and uniqueness of it from the others is the very cute and extremely strange demon lord baby which makes this series interesting. The story is basically about the everyday adventure of the main characters. Sometimes, it’s not really clear if there is even a serious plot but the storyline is still interesting and exciting. There’s action and comedy in the series and both are made quite well. The action part is not that explosive compared to some mainstay shounen series of today but it still intensifying enough. And in all fairness, the comedy part is well-made because it can be genuinely hilarious most of the time. They are even able to incorporate humor during serious moments.…

Beelzebub is a genuinely funny anime. And I mean laugh out loud 'til your sides hurt sort of funny. You know you're in for a good time when we are introduced to the basic storyline in the first episode... a huge guy floating down the river spots a “handsome and good looking young man” "who cared nothing for his follow humans". He proceeds to then bestow the green haired demon baby (Beelzebub) unto our protagonist, Oga Tatsumi, in one of the strangest fashions imaginable, before taking with an impressive ballerina pirouette. Hijinks ensue when the baby's beautiful demon maid servant, Hildegarde comes looking for the toddler and finds him attached to Oga. Hildegarde is not impressed but is intent on forcing Oga to fulfil his contract with baby Beel. Oga spends many many episodes trying to pa…

Beelzebub. Weirdest Yankee Anime
Beelzebub is a delinquent filled anime that makes your blood boils as you watch the fighting scenes and makes you laugh.
Story 6: Nice take off, but the end leaves you unsatisfied.
Art 6: Wonderful Graphics, but seems typical
Sound 7: Good voice acting and music match the anime.
Character 8: Unique yankee. They have you laughing your pants off.
The story started out great. You had Oga a student who is so badass and is only a first year at the infamous Ishiyama High, a place for yankees to relax. He stumbles upon a man floating down a river and he splits open revealing a baby that is the son of the demon king and it's mission is to get stronger and destroy the human race. Oga is then chosen to raise the baby and help him get stronger. The anime follows the…
