Based on the hit video game by Nippon Ichi. After a two year slumber, Laharl, the prince of the Netherworld, finds the Netherworld in chaos after the death of his father, King Krichevskoy. Not wasting any time, Laharl, with the help of his father's former vassal Etna, sets out to conquer the Netherworld and proclaim himself Overlord.
After playing the first Disgaea game, I decided to check out the anime as well, and I wasn't disappointed... too badly. The animation could have used a bit of work, but since the game animators were understandably busy when they made this, they wouldn't have had much time to perfect its quality. Other than that, the story was great, the dialogue was quite believable and the entertainment level is off the chart~ :3 I just wish it was a bit longer though, it felt rushed.
