Summary

admonition : plunderer for The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur AcademyThe Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academyis aHIDIVEexclusive serial thatcombinesIsekaiwith popular tropes from classic shonen seriesthroughout its completed first and only season . On top of that , this anime even cut into into the vampire genre , and one of its reincarnations already has a unique wind .

In most Isekai , protagonists are forcibly transported to a Modern domain beyond their control . InThe Demon Sword Master , the demon lord Leonis Death Magnus not onlyvoluntarily reincarnatesbut does so through the rare outgrowth of statis , whereby he awakens 1,000 years in the future as a 10 - year - old human boy .

This unconventional renascence is n’t strictly a reverse Isekai . Leonis function into stasis in a phantasy - based land and awakens in a futuristic earth in a very similar way of life to the protagonist ofDead Mount Death Play . However , this " modern " future sport so - bid Voids that share a resemblance to ancient monsters ( although wrongly key out ) and Holy Swords , which are essentially hyper - focussed magical piece .

TheDemon Sword Master of Excalibur AcademyHas A Protagonist With A Classic Shonen Background

Based on the light novel series by writer Yū Shimizu and illustrator Asagi Tōsaka

This uncommon form of renascence is then complemented by the other master character , Riselia Ray Crystalia , whoshares the same scope as many shonen protagonists . LikeMy Hero Academia ’s Deku andBlack Clover ’s Asta , Riselia dream of being sinewy like everyone else , but is n’t gifted with the power that make this possible . Like them , Riselia after acquire power but only by improper means , putting a mar on her subsequent accomplishments , even though Riselia look to be fine with this , so long as she can save life history .

However , The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academyaugments this well - known shonen trope even further by first presenting it through the lens of the eye of a story that ’s not proprietary to Zanzibar copal - where the heritor to a prestigious family does n’t experience up to their expectations . Next , the serial publication dresses it up byadding vampires to the mix . Even those who are n’t open to vampire will likely enjoy this spin , since the series does n’t research the field of study traditionally , even though blood - sucking is still involved .

If this were n’t enough , the serial also dabbles in another gratifying Isekai trope that check the champion ’s original enemy join them in the new world , further connecting both worlds and therefore complicating their overall moral force rather than keep them separated . The serial also adds some more concrete correlations by beginning almost every episode with a flashback of Leonis ' feat before his reincarnation . Even though only one season ofThe Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academyhas been released thus far , HIDIVE is presently simulcasting the dubbed interlingual rendition and will hopefully resume the product of this underratedIsekaioverall , as the original light refreshing series is still ongoing .
