This week's anime is a comedy, sports, coming-of-age shonen. You're probably thinking, "a show about volleyball?? gross" but trust me, this show is good . The show follows Shoyo Hinata, after constantly losing every volleyball game (due to forcing random people on his team since nobody else wanted to join) decides to attend Karasuno High School to become the next "Little Giant"--his idol nicknamed that for his small height but took the school to the nationals years prior.

This show follows two brothers, Edward and Alphonse (or Ed and Al for short) Elric on an adventure to get their original bodies back after a failed alchemy attempt of human transmutation in hopes of bringing their dead mother back. Because of this failure, Ed lost his left leg while Al lost his entire body. Ed while bleeding out from his lost leg, did some alchemy stuff and bonded his younger brother Al's soul to a nearby empty suit of armor while sacrificing his right arm in the process. Oh, they were also both 11 and 10 years old when all of this was happening. Fast forward, Ed is offered a title as a state alchemist that will allow him access to a bunch of military research and documents that he otherwise couldn't in exchange for protecting the countries citizens and taking whatever orders the

Some of Satan's allies were beaten and he was about to lose the fight until he and his right hand, Alciel were transported to Earth. Both had demon like features and powerful magic but now on Earth, they're just like any regular human. Now after trying to conquer Ente Isla, Satan has to establish himself in modern day Japan, Sasazuka to be exact. Satan and Alciel go to register their names. Satan is now Sadao Maou and Alciel is Shiro Ashiya. Both also go rent out an apartment together and plan out their next moves in their new mysterious world without magic. But in order to survive on Earth, you need money, and the only way to get money is with a job. So Maou finds a job at McDonald's or as the show calls it, MgRonald's. Not too long after, The Hero Emilia shows up on Earth too, where she is known as Emi Yus
