Ah thank you Japan

for sending giving us so much animated crack. I can blame this one on [livejournal.com profile] moshesque who made pretty icons from this piece of crack and on Netflix who actually had it.

Kyo Kara Maoh! Let's see...crack....
our hero Yuri Shibuya is actually a demon prince born here to shield him but is accidently sucked back into the demon world as bullies are giving him a swirlie in the girl's room. You know you're in trouble when you get sucked down the toilet...

It takes Yuri some time to adjust to the demon world (he thinks he's lost in an amusement park) and you quickly get the idea that he is so not going to like what his demon subjects want him to do (mind you no one looks very demonish, mostly it's a group of hot bishie boys and at least one big boobed free loving woman and a female mad scientist? Witch? Potions master?

You get good looking boys, cross dressing, battle scenes, a yaoi engagement (from a strange turn of events according to the extras...) It's enough crack to make me want to find disc two

Ah, I was never a huge fan of Kyou Kara Maoh. I watched up to episode 50something at some point, but it ended up so boring and terribly, terribly cliche and ridiculous (mainly at the serious parts) that it became a waste of time.

I do want to read the manga, though. Supposedly there's more YuurixWolfram action in it. (And despite the anime itself, I do love my Wolfram - even if his principles/behaviors are quite contradictory.)

Anyway, I found the anime a huge waste of my time. I personally didn't even find it that humorous.
Just...yah. No deliciousness at all.

i haven't seen enough to make a real determination yet to be honest

Ah, well, I would keep watching just to see what you think.

I, personally, don't like it very much.

i like a lot of things others don't and vice verse. I still don't get the appeal of Rurouni Kenshin

Actually, same here. o-o

Ditto about Rurouni Kenshin. I'm not a fan of it at all.
Though old anime in general is my favorite. <3

But yeah, you may like KKM better than me. I'm just not a fan of it. :/

oh i have a lot of old stuff in the collection in vhs form but i'm thrilled to see all the new stuff out there that I would have killed for as a teen

Crack and bishies are always a good thing.

can't argue that
