The Devil Is A Part Timer English Dub

Okay, let's talk about something a little... spicy. Something involving demons, fast food, and a whole lot of laughs.

I'm talking about The Devil Is A Part-Timer! And specifically, the English dub.

The Dub: A Hot Take

Now, I know. I know. Dubs are often... divisive. Some folks are ride-or-die sub purists. That's cool! You do you.

But I'm here to say it: I freaking LOVE the English dub of The Devil Is A Part-Timer!

Why I'm Team Dub (Prepare for Unpopular Opinions)

First, the voices are just... perfect. Seriously. Josh Grelle as Maou? It's like he was born to deliver those deadpan lines with a hint of underlying demonic power.

And Lucille Law as Emi Yusa? That righteous fury, that exasperated sigh... chef's kiss! Absolute perfection.

Then there's Anthony Bowling as Alsiel. The sheer loyalty and over-the-top antics? The dub nails it. He elevates the character to a whole new level of comedic gold.

Secondly, the localization is hilarious. They really leaned into the American fast-food culture. It makes the jokes land harder.

Hearing Maou complain about his minimum wage job while simultaneously plotting world domination? It's just *chefs kiss*.

Sub vs. Dub: It's All Good (Mostly)

Look, I appreciate the original Japanese. The voice acting is fantastic there too. I get it!

But something about the English dub just clicks with me. It might be nostalgia. It might be the sheer audacity of hearing demons argue about employee discounts in a distinctly American accent.

It might be just be plain preference.

Plus, let's be real, sometimes you just wanna chill and not read subtitles, especially when you're crushing a mountain of fries. You need to have your brain on autopilot to not feel guilty about the fries.

The (Maybe) Not-So-Secret Ingredient

I think the dub works so well because it embraces the absurdity of the premise. A demon king flipping burgers? It's inherently ridiculous. The dub actors understand that. They go all in.

They aren't afraid to be silly. They aren't afraid to be over-the-top. And that's what makes it so darn enjoyable.

Maybe it's because the script is faithful to the original while adding just enough localized flavor to make it feel fresh and relatable to an English-speaking audience.

Also, and this is key, the dub never feels forced. The jokes are natural, the pacing is excellent, and the voice acting is consistently superb.

A Final Plea (and a Bit of a Dare)

So, if you've only ever watched the sub of The Devil Is A Part-Timer!, I implore you: give the dub a try.

You might be surprised. You might even... *gasp*... like it more. Or, you might hate it. That's okay too! More power to ya.

But you won't know until you try. Worst case scenario, you spent a few hours watching a funny anime. Best case? You discover a new favorite way to experience Maou's adventures.

Don't be shy, take a plunge and give this dub a chance. You might just find yourself saying "Hail Satan!" in a very American accent.

Happy watching!
