Beelzebub refers to a deity in Hell's realms and his name means "Lord of things that fly" his full names are Kaiser de Emperana Beelzebub IV(bellbo). The story follows the "strongest delinquent" in a "delinquent school" as he takes the role of a father over the demon lord's son, who has a mission as he grows up, to destroy mankind.
The story follows Oga Tatsumi, Beelzebub, Hildagarde, Aoi Kunieda and "The Loser" Takayuku Furuichi.
Oga Tatsumi who's title was Kata Middle School's Ogre and reigns as one of the strongest at Ishiyama High School despite being a freshman. He shows many qualities of an ideal demon: strong, audacious, and self-centered. Through a series of events, he is bound by a sacred contract as the "father" of Beelzebub.
Beelzebub is the son of the demon king and is the person that is to become the future demon king. Ever since his contract with Oga, he exhibits behaviors such as clinging to Oga obsessively that even Oga can't shake him off.
Hildagarde also known as Hilda, is a demon maid that was assigned to take care of baby Beelzebub. She is well-known for her appearance of a gothic Lolita with huge breasts, but is also known for her brute strength and power as a demon.
The storyline is very original. A powerful delinquent named Oga is chosen to be the "father" to the son of the devil. Along with the son of the demon is a demon maid, Hilda who is to take care of the demon's son as the "mother". She moves into Oga's house in order to take care of the Beelzebub. Although the story may sound serious, there's always a light mood in this anime with ridiculous moments following Oga and Baby Beel all the time, though as the story goes on the viewer may be turned off by the repetitiveness of the plot, just like i was.
The animation is well made and the art is good. It offers the viewer a great experience of demonic auras and magical blasts.
The sounds give a nice tune for your ears. The openings and endings are fairly good aswell as the OSTs which give a good feeling for the anime.
Personally i find Beel and Furuichi hilarious not to mention MOKU5. I didn't really find the Touhoushinki amusing at all (The delinquent gang of Ishiyama). Chiaki is cute, but I don't really like the barking milkmachine (The ginger girl).
The anime is enjoyable overall. Worth a check.
