Yukiya Murasaki Biography & Facts

How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, also known as The King of Darkness Another World Story: Slave Magic (Japanese: 異世界魔王と召喚少女の奴隷魔術, Hepburn: Isekai Maō to Shōkan Shōjo no Dorei Majutsu, transl. "The Other World Demon Lord and the Summoning Girl's Slave Magic") is a Japanese light novel series written by Yukiya Murasaki and illustrated by Takahiro Tsurusaki. The light novels are published in English by J-Novel Club. A manga adaptation by Naoto Fukuda has been running since 2015, and is licensed by Seven Seas Entertainment. An anime television series adaptation by Ajia-do Animation Works aired from July 5 to September 20, 2018. A second season by Tezuka Productions and Okuruto Noboru aired from April 9 to June 11, 2021. Plot Takuma Sakamoto is a hikikomori gamer who is mysteriously transported to the virtual world of his favourite MMORPG, Cross Reverie, with the appearance of his own character in the game, the Demon Lord Diablo. The two young girls who summoned him, the pantherian Rem and the elf Shera, attempt to use a spell to make Takuma their servant, but due to his magic ring with the ability "Magic Reflection", the spell rebounds, and both end up with magic collars stuck on their necks, thus becoming his servants instead. With a serious case of social anxiety, Takuma decides to act like his character while interacting with others, and makes use of his high stats and vast knowledge of Cross Reverie's lore to survive in his new environment, traveling along with Rem and Shera to look for a way to remove their slave collars, while helping them with their own personal issues that led them to summon him in the first place. Characters Takuma Sakamoto (坂本 拓真, Sakamoto Takuma) / Diablo (ディアヴロ, Diavuro) Voiced by: Masaaki Mizunaka (Japanese); Eric Vale (English) Takuma was a Cross Reverie player who controlled the character @Diablo-13, known as the true Demon Lord. He always defeated players with better equipment and overwhelming skills, always holding back for being too strong. But one day he was invoked into another world, appearing in the body of his character, Diablo, finding two girls, a Pantherian and an elf, who claimed to have summoned him and that he should be a slave to one of them, but due to his ring's ability, the magic has rebound back against them, becoming his slaves. Takuma has poor social skills, resulting in him speaking as his character to communicate; it comes off idiotic (to readers) since he doesn't grow out of this, despite the fact it causes more problems than necessary. Shera L. Greenwood (シェラ・L・グリーンウッド, Shera Eru Gurīn'uddo) Voiced by: Yu Serizawa (Japanese); Sarah Wiedenheft (English) Shera L. Greenwood is an elf who is one of the two Summoners who summoned Diablo. Unfortunately, she is also a bit of a ditz; adding to the problems Diablo has to fix. It's later revealed that she is the princess of the elven kingdom of Greenwood. The reason she summoned him was to have the strength to live free. Rem Galleu (レム・ガレウ, Rem Gareu) Voiced by: Azumi Waki (Japanese); Jad Saxton (English) Rem Galleu is a pantherian who became a summoner and had no choice but to become an adventurer and continue to demonstrate its strength, her aim being to exterminate the Demon King Krebskulm that was bound to her soul. Rem typically has to deal with reeling in Sheera. Alicia Crystella (アリシア・クリステラ, Arishia Kurisutera) Voiced by: Yumi Hara (Japanese); Sara Ragsdale (English) Alicia Crystella is an Imperial Knight. She was born as a daughter of a duke house. She is a demon lord worshiper, whose mind is seriously damaged after seeing the depravity of mankind. She later betrays Diabio's group to destroy humanity by reviving Klem's true form, but fails and then reformed after helping Edelgard. Sylvie (シルヴィ, Shiruvi) Voiced by: Rumi Okubo (Japanese); Leah Clark (English) Sylvie is the Grassrunner Guildmaster of the Adventurer's Guild in Faltra City. Edelgard (エデルガルト, Erudorugaruto) Voiced by: Emiri Katō (Japanese); Kristi Rothrock (English) Edelgard is a Fallen (Demonic Being). She is shown riding a dragon-like creature, but as she enters into combat she descends from him and fights swiftly with her glaive, this is because her demonic beast was paralyzed out of fear. She commanded the army that attacked the city of Faltra and was the superior of Gregore, but was defeated with the rest of the demonic beings by the supreme magic of Diablo. She later moves to Faltra to serve Klem. Celestine Baudelaire (セレスティーヌ・ボードレール, Seresutīnu Bōdorēru) Voiced by: Sayaka Senbongi (Japanese); Marissa Lenti (English) Celestine Baudelaire is the head of the Mage Association in the city of Faltra. She is thus responsible of the magical barrier around the city. Before Diablo's summoning, she was the only one in confidence of Rem's secret and she keeps a close eye on her. Klem (クルム, Kurumu) Voiced by: Atsumi Tanezaki (Japanese); Madeleine Morris (English) Krebskulm is the ruler of the Fallen (Demonic Beings) who suffers from amnesia. She has a fondness for biscuits. She later turns into her true form after Rem was attacked, being restored to her former self when Rem is revived. Mei (メイ, Mei) Voiced by: Yuuka Morishima (Japanese); Kimberly Grace (English) Mei is a catgirl maid and the manager of the "Peace of the Mind" inn where the protagonists reside. Emile Bichelberger (エミール・ビュシェルベルジェール, Emīru Byusheruberujēru) Voiced by: Ryōtarō Okiayu (Japanese); Clifford Chapin (English) Emile is a warrior responsible of evaluating the level of warriors in the Adventurer's Guild in Faltra. He is self-proclaimed “ally to all women”. Keera L. Greenwood (キイラ・L・グリーンウッド, Kiira L Gurīn'uddo) Voiced by: Akira Ishida (Japanese); Stephen Fu (English) The perverted brother of Shera L. Greenwood. He wishes to make Shera into his wife to produce a pure-blooded child.
