Plot[]

Summoned into an alternate world of Alayzard, Akatsuki Ousawa helps to defeat the demon king (魔王 Maō), brings harmony back into the world, and (under the demon lord’s last request) takes the demon’s only daughter back into Akatsuki’s own world. It turns out that being teleported into a different world is somewhat of a common occurrence. Those who find themselves back home often come back with the power to use magic and the world organization fearing people like Akatsuki created Babel, a school to teach and keep tabs on the magic users. Akatsuki is able to pull the demon lord’s only daughter into Babel as his sister, Myuu Ousawa. A new chapter for Akatsuki is about to begin in his own universe.

Characters[]

Class B[]

Akatsuki Ousawa (鳳沢 暁月 Ōsawa Akatsuki)[]

Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Japanese), Eric Vale (English)
The main protagonist of the series. Akatsuki came back to the real world after defeating the demon king and becoming a hero in the alternate world of Alayzard. He was entrusted by the Demon King with his daughter, Miu whom Akatsuki brought back with him. Akatsuki began to attend Babel school along with Miu (posing her as his late sister, Myuu).
Ousawa is, by nature, cocky and perverted. Upon bringing an unconscious and naked Miu back to his apartment, the first thing he considers doing is fondelling her breasts. Akatsuki also tends to humiliate any female that obstructs or attacks him by somehow removing her panties and either keeping or throwing them away.
By the end of Season 1, he was promoted to Class A.

Miu Ousawa (鳳沢 美兎 Ōsawa Miu)[]

Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa (Japanese), Felecia Angelle (English)
Miu Ousawa is the daughter of the Demon King. She is skilled at using magic, easily being able to knock out a teacher in the first episode, to the point of using simultaneous magics of differing elements. She also has a dark power that we see her using in the second episode, likely due to her nature as at least part demon. Her father entrusted her to Akatsuki Ousawa, upon his death at the Akatsuki's hands. Miu is aware that Akatsuki killed her father, although whether she intends to take revenge is at this stage unknown.
Chikage Izumi and her class rep, Kuzuha Doumoto, the three of them usually hanging around together during breaks, and begins to show romantic feelings to Akatsuki.

The Class Representative of Class B and a "short" girl, which was suddenly pulled into another world and when she returned, she was placed in JPN Babel where people are older. She is intelligent, so much that she moved some series, has a shy and reserved personality. All this is because the fact that she cannot "understand" the feelings of others. It makes her think she is a "child". Not much is known about her, she is a close friend of Miu and Izumi. Her weapon is a giant hammer and her specialty is earth elemental.
By the end of Season 1, she was promoted to Class A.

She protected Miu from the cockatrice while protected Kuzuha from Phil Barnett and ended up being severely injured. Chikage Izumi loves to tease Kuzuha. Her element is water and her weapon is a magical longbow.
