Helck's combination of comedy and daily living and thrilling action and high tension drama is pretty novel and cool. Even though it wears its inspirations on its sleeves its a work that defies easy classification because it goes so many places over the short run we've seen so far. A good all round adventure epic that makes you laugh and feel and lots of other good stuff.

You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!

The story isn't as simple as the king being evil and starting all this. I'm not sure the king is even real. There are a ton of plot hooks floating around.

The king is Snoke.

If you must blink, do it now.
Just so we're clear here, Sharky's absolutely correct when he says saying Helck does nothing new or interesting is a pretty dumb statement. Try to do that less.

Originality is not a prerequisite of quality - though I'd argue Helck has both - so throwing that line out there is effectively a conversation nonstarter.

Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

I am the sexiest poster in the world!
Just marathoned all of HELCK last night and :negative:.

I want the current Helck to be air dropped right into the capital and to just start wrecking poo poo, Hulk style. I liked pretty much all the little gags too, and I really liked the hot-blooded Souma wannabe shonen cook.

I think that Vamirio/Anne's opinion towards Helck is going to change pretty drastically from here on out too. I also actually completely expect the story to end with a peace between demons and humans, with Helck as the demon king and Azudora as the human king as a symbol of the peace. Man humans in this story are mostly horrible though, good grief.

Okay I'm sorry I said Helck wasn't original, I just really like Helck and struggle for the words

That said I only realized yesterday that Helck and Cless together are Heracles

She was on board with it the entire time. She questioned Helck's motives. Her own were always the same after the Demon King was killed. Only the root guy (that is still alive) really strives for peace so far if I remember things correctly.

Touka Scott a small Radish Farmer in the southern Town of Cheza is prepared for sudden Monster Attacks. He built himself a hidden Pit-trap with Bamboo spikes, to lure unsuspecting Monsters in if they ever try to Attack the Village. Suddenly a Monster attacks. Touka tries to lure it into the Trap with freshly roasted Bacon, but the Monster dislikes this type of Meat. Thankfully the Hero arrives to save the Village from the Monster in the nick of Time. The hungry Hero tries to grab a bite of Bacon after vanquishing the Monster, only to stumble into Touka's Pit-trap and die.

I'm not totally clear based upon the recent chapters why his other buddies are still around and now 100% loyal to the king. Is it because some exceptional people are able to resist all of the physical transformation stuff, yet are still influenced to obey the king?

Those with "high compatibility" get to keep their form and awareness, but are still slaves to the king

She didn't really want to kill all humans, it is just that the only contact the demons have had with humans at all has been heroes coming in to make a big mess. Then shortly after just that happened, here was a hero that was stronger than her who claimed to want to get along. Vamirio's motivations have been completely transparent this whole time.
