Read Daemons of the Shadow Realm Episode 1 Review
Dera and Hana are amazed to witness her presence. Daemons of the Shadow Realm is still setting the universe up. I find it’s balance of action and humor to be enjoyable. Asa and her team first appeared to be villains but it turns out it maybe the villagers that are evil. I’m interested in seeing how many kinds of Daemon this series has. I like the characterization and design of Right and Left. The names “Right and Left”, feels kind of lazy but it’s not a big deal. This series is off to a good start.
