Forgive me, I'm still on the first episode but this already seems like a ripoff- we've got the overpowered main character (saiki), school beauty (teruhashi) and the hot blooded and intense side character (hairo). I hope I don't see anymore characters that seem like ripoffs of Saiki K characters, it's really bugging me.
I'm not a huge anime buff, but I really liked this so far (ep. 6). It's funny and I like the way the hero is so low key. Enjoyable.
This anime is easily 10 out of 10 in the original Mandarin Chinese. The story is about an all-powerful teen, with the last name King, who hides most of his magical powers to survive in the ordinary world. Of course, he is unable to hide for long and adventure ensues.
English subtitles are accurate but you miss out on the cultural nuances and beauty of the Chinese language The Giant Frog, for example, is really called Sky Swallowing Toad. Words appear way too fast and you will have to pause and rewind frequently. It is written at a seinen level so a high school education is useful for full appreciation.
The story mixes Chinese mythical elements like alchemy balls, paper runes, and spells with modern video games, metaphysics, and humor. The animation style copies Japanese anime to a tee. It is funny throughout with real jokes instead of physical humor.
Don't miss it.

1) The most important thing is that the series is watchable.
2) It's an anime but made in China. I'm so use to listening in Japanesse that is weird in Mandarin but you'll get accustomed.
3) The plot is really interesting, something that reminds me of Saiki K anime, the guy that has enourmous power but doesnt wanna make a big deal of it. But in this case the main character is really careful cause if his full power is realeased it may cause the end of the world.
4) The story telling is weird I think, the plot doesnt flow naturally sometimes.
5) It's entertaining, you wanna keep watching episode after episode despite the flaws. It's something that may bother some people, but it doesnt ruin the final product.
It's the first time i've watched an anime from China, I think is good enough to say that they have potential to develope some interesting series in the future.

You'll notice that this anime is similar to The Disastrous Life of Saiki K, but its better because of the animation is cool, the comedy things and the romance also. I dont understand of people who review this anime worse, for me who watch chinese anime for the first time seems like there's nothing wrong with this anime and its recommended to watch. The creator of this anime is really like dragon ball i think 5555. The op song is really nice btw.
