Synopsis:

The narrative follows Satan, a powerful Demon Lord, who is unexpectedly banished from his realm and finds himself in modern-day Tokyo. Accompanied by his devoted general Alsiel, he adopts a human identity as Sadao Maou to survive. Stripped of his demonic powers, Sadao takes a part-time job at a fast-food chain while secretly plotting his return to conquer Ente Isla.

The series explores the comical clash between demonic ambition and everyday life. Sadao navigates the challenges of working a regular job, dealing with mundane responsibilities, and adapting to human society – all while attempting to maintain his ultimate goal. The story blends fantasy elements with slice-of-life scenarios, offering a humorous perspective on power, ambition, and the unexpected difficulties of achieving world domination in a contemporary setting.
