Plot[edit]

A human witch and also college student named Yurine Hanazono summons the lamia Jashin ("Evil God") from Hell. Unable to go back to Hell by herself, Jashin spends each day unsuccessfully trying to kill Yurine while simultaneously spending time with her and various acquaintances from Heaven and Hell.

Characters[edit]

Yurine Hanazono (花園 ゆりね, Hanazono Yurine)
Voiced by: Nichika Ōmori[3]
A human who summoned Jashin to Earth. She is relentless in brutally attacking Jashin as penance for her actions, but is generally kind to others. As the only human among the main characters, Yurine often acts as the voice of reason and avatar of the audience, sarcastically commenting on the silly antics of the characters surrounding her.
Jashin-chan (邪神ちゃん)
Voiced by: Aina Suzuki[3]
A self-centered lamia who was summoned from Hell by Yurine. She possesses regenerative abilities, which allows her to recover from whatever bloody punishment Yurine inflicts. Although it seems that Jashin is an absolutely immoral girl who manipulates Medusa or mocks Pekola without any regrets, at heart she is capable of good deeds and appreciates her close friends. However, as Yurine notes, Jashin is embarrassed by this and tries to hide the good traits of her personality because of her tsundere nature.
Medusa (メデューサ, Medyūsa)
Voiced by: Miyu Kubota[3]
A gorgon from Hell who is close friends with Jashin, despite the latter seeing her more as a walking cash machine. She and Jashin are pretty close, to such a level that their relationship leaves Yurine a feel of a "boy-girl relationship", with Jashin often behaving like an immoral husband who constantly manipulates her "wife" Medusa for the sake of monetary gain. At the same time, the tender side of Medusa allows her to discover the hidden good side of Jashin, which allows them to remain closest persons and regularly emphasize their strong bonds and interdependence. While outdoors, she wears a paper bag on her head to avoid accidentally turning people into stone.
Pekola (ぺこら, Pekora)
Voiced by: Yurie Kozakai[3]
An angel who lost her halo and became stranded on Earth. She is often starved due to not having any money, but is also somewhat defiant in accepting kindness from Yurine, as she believes her to be a witch. She is later on teased, often being called "Tajiri" with people assuming that as her last name, as it is the name on the swimsuit she borrows from her coworker.
Minos (ミノス, Minosu)
Voiced by: Chiaki Omigawa[3]
A minotaur who is friends with Jashin and lives next to Yurie's apartment. Despite being based on a cow, she has no qualms about eating beef.
Poporon (ぽぽろん)
Voiced by: Rico Sasaki[3]
Pekola's former subordinate, who seeks to kill Pekola so she can take her place as a fully-fledged angel. However, she loses her powers after Jashin eats her halo, taking up jobs as both a ramen shop worker and an idol.
Persephone II (ペルセポネ2世, Perusepone Ni-sei)
Voiced by: Riho Iida[3]
A devil who descended to the earth in order to search for Jashin-chan. A running gag is that she and Jashin-chan had been nearby each other several times but never noticed each other's presence. She is the daughter of the Underworld God, Hades and Persephone. She later lives with Minos.
Persephone (ペルセポネ, Perusepone)
Voiced by: Misae Komori
Jashin-chan's teacher and mother of Persephone II who stays on Earth to study human culture. She currently works at an orphanage.
Mei Tachibana (橘 芽依, Tachibana Mei)
Voiced by: Natsuko Hara[3]
A ditzy police officer who falls for Jashin on sight and tries to take her for herself. She refers to Jashin as "Orochimaru" and often brings anything she considers cute to her home.
Yusa (遊佐)
Voiced by: Kazusa Aranami[3]
A yuki-onna who looks after her younger sister, Koji, and sells shaved ice.
Kōji (浩二)
Voiced by: Miko Terada[3]
Yusa's little sister, who Jashin nicknames Kōri-chan (氷ちゃん). Her blood produces strawberry flavored syrup while her urine produces lemon flavored syrup. She has the face of a mole, can't speak and has been abducted by Mei multiple times.
Beth (ベート, Bēto)
Voiced by: M.A.O[4]
A Beast of Gévaudan that Yurine keeps as a pet outside of her apartment.
Pino (ぴの)
Voiced by: Marina Yamada
Another of Pekola's former subordinates, who seeks to kill Pekola and Poporon due to their acquaintance with demons. However, she loses her powers after Poporon breaks her halo. She takes up a job as the custodian outside Yurine's apartment since the demon residents would prevent the Heaven from pursuing her. She is extremely paranoid.
Kyon-Kyon (キョンキョン, Kyonkyon)
Voiced by: Nanami Yamashita[5]
A Jiangshi girl from Hell China who wishes to become a human. She works at a bookstore.
Ran-Ran (ランラン, Ranran)
Voiced by: Minami Tanaka[5]
Kyon-Kyon's sister who was turned into a panda and now resides in Kyon-Kyon's dress, though she's able to leave it.
Lierre (リエール, Riēru)
Voiced by: Miharu Hanai[6]
Pekola, Poporon and Pino's superior who arrives at Earth in order to destroy the human civilization after a meeting with other gods. She takes the form of a child and resides in the orphanage where her old friend Persephone works. She also expresses some childlike traits, such as being obsessed with cartoons or interested in a panda-shaped spring rider.

Lierre, among other characters, is very fond of her. Patra-chan (full name Cleopatra) is the young princess of the planet Ptolemy, who is trying her best to conquer planet earth. At her side is her always faithful and motivating companion Horus, a small round bird, wearing a sash with changing slogans. Patra's world conquering ambitions, however, have been thwarted by the sisters Noah and Reah, who, out of pity, took Patra in. Patra's clothes are inspired by ancient Egyptian attire. Patra-chan received her own two-volume spin-off manga, titled Uchū Pharaoh Patra-chan (宇宙ファラオ☆パトラちゃん, Uchū Farao Patora-chan, lit. 'Space Pharao Patra-chan').[10][11]

Controversy[edit]

On November 16, 2022, the Furano City Council's Special Committee for the Examination of Settlement of Accounts voted to deny the release of funds raised through the hometown tax system for the production of the ninth episode of season three. The episode, which is set in Furano and promotes various local landmarks, businesses, and goods, was criticized by committee members for its plot involving Jashin-chan planning to sell her organs to pay her debts, with one member calling the episode's content "socially unacceptable". The committee had voted 7 to 7 on whether to settle the funding account, with the chairman having the deciding vote, thus denying to hand over the JP¥33 million (US$236,116) in funds to the production committee.[79] On November 30, the committee reversed its decision in a regular session, allowing the funds to be paid out.[80]
