>the demon king is actually invading the mortal realms just to get away from his well meaning, but controlling, parents
>>51624515
Alternatively, much like Krauser, he never meant to invade the mortal realms and just keeps accidentally doing it through a mix of bizarre coincidences and extreme clumsiness.
>>51624679
That is pretty much the plot of Overlord now.
>>51624515
Are you stupid or something, bitch? Krauser-san killed both of his parents when he was born and then raped the corpses
>>51625297
That's Krauser-Sama you maggot. Kill yourself to atone for the affront you have given to the dark lord lest he come for you and your family.

There's a lot of paranoia in the mix in Overlord though.
>>51624515
Sounds like the shittiest idea ever.
I expect a 3 season anime with heavy RomCom overtones.

Is this a thread for MAID Plot ideas?

>When are you going to get a real job being properly evil?
>Why haven't you settled down with a nice succubus, are you gay?
>I don't like those demon kids you hang out with, they're too nice.
>>51631021
>Local lich just wants to be cool, like all the other kids
>Everyone misunderstands him
>the demon king discovers evil never wins
>starts out as novice adventurer
>>51633010
Local lich shouldn't have fucked around with the backstory for his buddy's NPC. Even if it did improve her personality, and provide several phenomenal reaction faces.
>>51629174
>an ancient evil has awoken with a bad hangover and only vague memories of the night before
>>51624717
But that's not Overlord you motherfucker.
Overlord is the game where the minions wake up some random fucker to be their boss ever so often, because they need a figurehead and also they don't know how to do shit without one.
>>51635067
Not that, Overlord, THIS Overlord.

I thought the plot was about the MC being careful while misunderstanding that he's a cult leader, not the leader of a free organization.
