How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord - LF general story spoiler

MICHAEL_HENRY · February 11,2025

Hey,

Like the last time i wanted to ask if someone read How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord / Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu and could tell me if it would fit as happy/fluffy harem story :x

I saw this novel before, but since i hate sad stuff and girls that suffer in general i avoided reading it. But i just saw the anime recently and it was kinda positive overall. There died some gild members and soldiers, but no "named" person and specially no woman. Well, the brother of the elf died, but i'm totally fine about that ass dying...

I'm still not a fan of the slave market that was shown shortly but it was kinda "fine" because (at least in the anime) it wasn't so dark. So i wanted to ask if someone read the novel and could tell me if the story getting darker? If there is Polygamy development? And if there is stuff to worry about in general.

Btw. sry for those threads, i'm just really sensible with sad stuff, thats why try to ask beforehand if something like that appears in novels that i think about reading :x If possible i try to ask someone directly who wrote a review about the novel but sadly thats not always possible (here: Only mllhild read up to volume 8 and he wasn't online for a long time)

Thanks already in advance =D

Read even further on, the adventures will pick up more steam, the actions, the comedy and challenges will be demon king epic. The real boss villains begin to show up, all I will say is Diablo is the true demon king!(cosplaying) LOL!

The manga just hinted as a new Character introduction soon. +New Harem Member.

I wouldn't call it a happy/fluffy story, there are fights and blood of the MC and his harem is spilled. But at the same time so far all of the problems were fixed immediately and nothing long-lasting bad happened to them. If you are just looking for a novel without sad stuff, this might be the one you like. The story is kinda average though...

So yea, and he won't touch her for a while there. Also, he will soon officially marry the other chick (the one used to be cursed)

Nothing dark happens so far, Rem did get 'captured' by a demon king but since Diablo already predicted it, everything ends happily.
As for the polygamy, Diablo actually marries both girls and become the king of elves

could tell me if the story getting darker?
no.
If there is Polygamy development?
yes, diablo is the "best man"

the manga is quite closely to the novels so i don't have any dissatisfaction in it
in my opinion I think the new characters is not quite likely a harem member

You mean "slightly less annoying loli harem" as compared to Arifureta?

I'm pretty certain this is one of those stories with a happy end. So any of the darker stuff, which does exist, is generally relegated to the background.

Umm, for example, if there are named character deaths, they're actually hanging on by a thread to be saved by a super potion...or resurrected. So long as the character that you like has a name and is not hostile, you can rest easy that they won't have a tragic fate.

@Enigmeh and @DDharta to be fair, i didn't expected any more answers here xD But nice that i was wrong ^^

I finished Volume 7 last week (he married the elf) but was really disappointed that the marriage ceremony was skipped, that they didn't even kissed and that the only "romance like" thing happened with someone who he won't have an relationship with... I think the novel in general is just again this typical Japanese stuff... It will become a triangular relationship but not a harem since the other girls have basically no screen time after their ark is finished and after 7 volumes he still sticks to his demon play and avoids any kinds of romance. It's still somehow fun to read, but i was so disappointed after the marriage, that i stopped reading for the moment :x
So without even knowing who you talk about, I think DDharta is right and it won’t be a harem member xD

Diablo Immortal was released and fans don't like it.

Oh wait, you're talking about the other Diablo.
