01x01 - The Demon King's Daughter is Too Kind!! / The Demon King's Daughter Helps Too Much!!

[bunniefuu]

In the demon world lived evil beings

who followed their evil intentions

and were infatuated with destruction

and violence known as demons.

Then there was the one who

desired to use violence and power to

bring these demons under his

command the Demon King Ahriman.

That desire led him to try to bring all

of the demon world under his control.

And so, the invasion of

the demon king's army began!

Obey the demon king!

Obey the demon king!

The demon king displayed his

overwhelmingly colossal power

as he laid waste to the demon world,

which brought fear to both

the human world and heaven.

It was only a matter of time before the

demon world was brought under one rule.

It was believed that this evil invasion

would soon spread to

the other worlds as well, but

Impossible! My elite guard was taken

down by a single strike

I am the demon king's right hand, Jahi.

Demon of the north, surrender to our army.

You're the demon king's

Wh-What?!

What's the meaning of this?!

Why did you suddenly withdraw our forces

and stop our plans for

world domination, my lord?!

This is a grave matter, Jahi.

If we do not take care of this obstacle,

I cannot even think about the invasion.

An obstacle so great that

you've stopped your invasion?

What could it be?

Well

Doux is My daughter is just too kind!

What?

THE DEMON KING'S DAUGHTER IS TOO KIND!!

"The Demon King's Daughter is Too Kind!!"

Lady Doux is too kind?

Er, by Lady Doux, you of course mean

My daughter that you are very familiar with.

Lady Doux

It is true that Lady Doux

has always been quite kind

and gentle for a demon

ever since she was born

That's only due to her

still being quite young.

It's only a matter of time until

she awakens to her true ruthless nature.

That's what I believed, as well.

But over the past six months

while you were gone on your campaign

Doux's kindness has just gone too far!

She healed a human sl*ve's wounds,

she helped some demon sl*ves carry things,

and shared some of her snacks

with some sl*ve children!

And

Papa!

Ah, Doux!

Look, it's a Mr. Lizard!

I saved him from the river!

Ah, is that so?

But don't get too close to the

river on your own, all right?

Okay!

As you can see, she'll save even a lizard.

L-Lady Doux

Ah, Big Sister Jahi! Welcome back!

Y-Yes, I just returned

My duties as a father come

before my duties as a king.

I'm so worried about Doux that I

can't even think about our invasion.

Your Majesty

Very well.

Then I shall train Lady Doux and

turn her into a ruthless, evil demon!

Is that so?

Ruthless?

Lady Doux.

I shall guide you into becoming a true demon.

That means we can play together, right?

No, there will be no "playing" involved.

I know that she is in good hands with you.

So, what exactly are you going to do?

Yes.

First, I will have her t*rture some weakling

humans and awaken her instincts as a demon.

To do so, we shall traverse the dense

forest that leads into the human world.

There are still many lawless, stray demons

within the forest that still us,

so I shall have Lady Doux also defeat—

Huh?

Be careful out there.

I'm gonna go play with Big Sister Jahi!

This is a problem.

I'm certain that Lady Doux can't shake her

kindness because the demon king spoils her so.

But I will not be spoiling her.

Lady Doux! Prepare yourself!

Wait, huh?

Lady Doux? Where did you go?

Did a stray demon get to her?!

Come get me!

She's safe!

"A FUN GAME OF HIDE-AND-SEEK"

LYRICS: KANATA NAKAMURA

COMPOSITION AND ARRANGEMENT: RYOTA TESHIMA

SONG: DOUX

Playing hide-and-seek with

Big Sister in the forest

Fun, fun hide-and-seek

Are you ready? (Are you ready?)

Not just yet (Not just yet)

Come here, come here now, and let's play

Playing even more

hide-and-seek with Big Sister

The birdies and bunnies are

also playing hide-and-seek

Are you ready? (Are you ready?)

Not just yet (Not just yet)

Everyone, come here and let's play

Aw, you found me! Okay, Doux will be it next.

We're not playing hide-and-seek!

Please listen.

Demons steal, oppress, and k*ll!

Those are the three principles we live by!

We have no time for these games.

Please understand that Lady Doux?

Eat up, okay?

What did I just tell you?!

They looked hungry

so I gave them some treats!

Children are just so unpredictable

Look at that weak-looking demon over there.

You'll be my dinner tonight!

We're splitting the goods, partner!

Silence.

You outlaws who do you

think you're talking to?

You're next

Your head's all bald, mister!

Do you like it?

Huh? Where'd Mr. Demon go?

I had it all wrong.

She didn't get like this

because she was spoiled.

She was born too kind!

And her softness rubs off

on everyone around her.

Even beasts or demons

She's too dangerous. Her powers will

eventually destroy evil itself.

I must steel my resolve.

Ah! I found Mr. Demon!

We are not playing hide-and-seek!

We will now perform one of the

three principles of being a demon.

We will steal.

We will threaten the humans of

this village and steal their food.

That is the trial I am giving to you.

Do you know what threaten means, my lady?

Yup!

Then, go forth!

Okay! Off I go!

At this rate, not only will she not

be able to succeed the demon king

she may not be able to live as a demon at all.

But she's the demon king's daughter.

When it comes down to it, I'm sure she'll

Hi, lady! Can I have a sweet potato, please?

Are you shopping?!

Sure, coming right up.

I told you to steal it! I thought

you memorized your lines!

Yes! The cue card! We can

still turn this around!

I I am a great demon.

Y-You pitiful and foolish humans.

I-If you do not give me an offering,

I will rip apart your flesh, set your

bowels on fire, and send you into madness.

My, my. Are you pretending to

be a demon in this day and age?

Look at those cute little

horns you put on your head.

We're doomed.

Here you go.

Oh, but I don't have any money.

You're stealing it, aren't

you? I don't need any money.

I injured my legs really badly a while back.

The doctor said I wouldn't

be able to stand ever again.

On top of that, the veggies this

year just didn't turn out well

and I can't seem to get any customers,

so I was planning to close my shop.

So if you'll have something like this

Oh?

What's the matter? Are you not feeling well?

Stand up!

Hey, were you even listening?

I told you. I can't stand up Huh?

M-My legs move.

How did

How did this happen?

I'll come by to steal from

you every day, okay?

So make sure you stay healthy forever!

Yes, of course.

I guess I'm going to have to prepare

some offerings for you every day.

Um c-carry on!

I stole it!

Why are you acting so smug?!

Helping a human with magic is

most unbecoming as a demon!

It would've been more effective if

you threatened her and stole it!

Yup! But

I learned that you can get

things by helping others, too.

Doux wants to be a demon who helps everyone!

Th-That will never be allowed

GUUUURGLE

Halfsies!

Doux! I've come to pick you up!

Ah, Papa! Halfsies!

Isn't it yummy, Papa?

Anything you give me is delicious, my love!

How am I supposed to win?

THE DEMON KING'S DAUGHTER HELPS TOO MUCH!!

"The Demon King's Daughter Helps Too Much!!"

Hey!

Hey, are you coming to pick her up?

Tell her to come by my place next time.

Pardon me.

Welcome, Jahi.

Th-Thank you for looking

after Lady Doux again today.

Lady Doux, what's this?

Big Sister Jahi!

Little Doux said she wanted to make some

dolls, so we've been making them together.

Doux's making the face!

You two have helped me so much,

but this is about all I can do.

Grammy is amazing!

Doux can't do this well on her own!

Well, then let's do our best together.

Okay!

What?!

You're helping some old

human woman every day?!

Yup! The grammy who gave me sweet potatoes.

Jahi, what is the meaning of this?!

You're even wearing a disguise!

Fear not, Your Majesty.

This is merely a trial to

entrap that old woman!

Oh?

In order to eventually deceive,

betray, and entrap that woman,

we are merely pretending to help those

people so we can gain their trust.

Thankfully, it appears that old woman

doesn't realize that Lady Doux is a demon

so it was child's play to lure her in.

I see. So that's what's going on!

Then I have just the thing.

Here you are.

Is that salt?

Take one lick.

Y-Yes, Your Majesty.

Don't move.

Well? You can't move, can you?

Wh-What is this?

That is Puppet Salt.

If any living creature has a taste of that,

they will temporarily be forced to

follow any command from another.

Wh-Why did you use that on me?

To help kindle Doux's desire for domination.

Now, Doux. Go ahead and give Jahi an order.

An order?

Wha?!

She'll do anything you say.

Anything?

Yes. No matter how cruel

or horrifying it may be.

Okay, then

ORDERS

HOLD ME + PAT ME ON THE HEAD

The demon king truly is terrifying.

Huh? What was that?

N-Nothing.

Now, Lady Doux.

Please make this the last time you

order me to do something like this.

But the effects are truly remarkable.

With this, she'll surely be able to

Make sure you give that old

woman a cruel order!

Yup! Papa taught me a bunch of

cruel orders, so don't worry!

ANOTHER CUE CARD

Then go, my lady.

Okay!

With how much that old woman trusts Lady Doux,

she should have no issue putting

that Puppet Salt in her mouth.

Then we will betray her trust and

throw her into the depths of despair.

Here you go!

And then this trial will be complete

Wait, why are you helping her

without hesitation, Lady Doux?!

This just means I must properly guide her

Oh, Jahi.

Huh?

Could you come give me a hand?

Sure!

M-My body's moving on its own!

You're a lifesaver!

Yay!

This way, lady!

Sorry about this. We just

didn't have enough people.

The effects haven't worn off.

More importantly, this stuff makes

me follow human orders, too?!

Are you sure it's not defective?!

Can I put this here?

Yes, thank you.

Why are you taking stuff out of the house?

It's been decades since my house was built,

so the floors and walls are falling apart.

I decided to have it remodeled.

I'm going to be staying at a friend's place

in the meantime, so I'm taking my stuff out.

So you're going away?

Don't you worry. My friend's house and

my new home are both in this village.

But I have one request for you, Doux.

Wow! So many plushies!

Did you make all of these, Grammy?

I did.

And I want you to have all

of these little ones, Doux.

Huh? You're not taking them with you?

I'm not.

You don't want them anymore?

That's not true.

All this time, I've dusted them every day,

washed them, and sewed them back together.

So they're very, very important to me. But

The ones who played

with them are gone now.

I'm sure these little ones would be happier

with you than with an old woman like me.

That's not true.

Huh?

Just watch.

Thank you so much!

Is Lady Doux doing okay?!

Move!

Th-The plushies moved?!

Yay!

H-How did this happen?

How?

I thought Puppet Salt was only

supposed to work on living things.

You're the first one I made

See? I knew it!

They're all saying they want

to stay with you, Grammy!

Doux would've taken really

good care of them, too,

but the plushies want to stay with

the person who took care of them the most!

Could it be that

Lady Doux's kindness awakened the souls

of these lifeless plushies?

My little ones

So you keep them, Grammy!

That's Doux's order!

Doux Well, if it's an order,

I guess I'll have to follow it.

I may be old, but I'd love

to keep you by my side.

Now and forever.

So, Jahi. How did the trial go—

What's the meaning of this?

Papa! Look!

This is my puppet!

I made it with Grammy!

Oho, look how cute it is!

Well done! What a good girl!

Next, I'm gonna make one for you, Papa!

I'm the luckiest papa in the world!

I'm so powerless.

I know. I'll go back out to the b*ttlefield

and take the heads of some enemies.

Big Sister Jahi!

Lady Doux. What's this?

That's yours, Big Sister!

Now, we match!

Lady Doux

Looks like you two have grown quite close.

I am trusting you to continue

looking after my precious Doux.

Huh? No, I

Yes! I will be happy to!

Wait, the effects still haven't worn off.

Let's play again tomorrow, Big Sister.

B-But I need to

Y-Yes. Nothing would make me happier

Yay! I get to be with Big Sister!

Good for you, Doux.

Together! Together with Big Sister!
