You know exactly where this one is going.Ĭonsidering Helck is a finished series and also a two cour affair though, naturally there’s more to it than basic fighting and that’s what this opener does a pretty good job of showcasing. Yeah, I dare say that synopsis reads itself. The previous demon king died, so what is the demon race to do? Why hold a martial contest to determine the next one of course! Except all the top competitors got their asses handed to them by a black horse who’s poised to take the prize. Much as alluded to in the RC Preview, Helck is an older (if 2010s is old) fantasy work which is effectively a mashup of comedy and tournament chaos.
Am I going as far to say Helck is one of those series? Not entirely – but in a sea of alternate world shenanigans going back to the basics is definitely a breath of fresh air. For all I like my isekai, there’s no denying it’s truly done a number on fantasy as a whole, enough so that when a legitimately strong fantasy series comes by you honestly have to blink twice to ensure you’re not dreaming.
