Currently, the English translators have used "Satan" in place of "Maou" or "Demon Lord". While the translations tend to make more sense this way, from a western perspective, the use of "Satan" is more of a title than a nickname.

=== This work provides examples of: ===
* [[Above the Influence]]: One thousand young women are dropped on Exoda's door step with every expectation of being [[Squick|used, abused and exploited]] as his slaves. Exoda's first response is to send them all home. When it becomes clear that's not an option, he accepts responsibility for their suffering and founds a representative government to secure their rights and freedoms.
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: Satan is believed to be such a pervert that it is hard for him to not be mistaken for one.
Line 18 ⟶ 17:
* [[Amazon Brigade]]: Considering most of his island's population is women, due to the below-mentioned [[Malicious Slander]], and Galett training many of the women to be guards to better defend their new home from any one who threatens it, Exoda has a fairly large one and it is growing.
* [[Angry Guard Dog|Angry Guard Dragon]]: The dragon guarding the lowest part of the vault is this only when someone not authorized comes in ... or when the contract ends and no one bought the extension or life-time policy.
* [[Anti -Anti -Christ]]
* [[Arc Break]]: At the time of this writing, the manga has stalled because its host magazine stopped publication.
** A eight-minute AMV has been released, so there is potential that this will become an Anime sometime in the next year or two.
Line 36 ⟶ 35:
* [[Crazy Cultural Comparison]]: People from the East and the West living in Shina Dark get into little fights over their [[Culture Clash]] frequently. (Forks v. chopsticks, etc.)
* [[Creepy Doll]]: {{spoiler|Seru}}
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Satan seems like a lazy bum who likes nothing more than relaxing and tries to avoid doing anything that even resembles hard work (running the country he created in what can only be described as his backyard). And he really is like that. But if someone actually forces him into doing something, they will quickly be reminded '''why''' the whole world pisses its pants before him.
* [[Dance Battler]]: {{spoiler|Rosa.}}
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Exoda.
* [[Defector From Decadence]]: The Second Prince of Estgloria remembers his father's love for the people, is disgusted at the Queen's excesses, and cares deeply for Christina.
* [[Determinator]]: Deconstructed and reconstructed with Galett. She's a strong and charismatic leader, but her [[Heroic Willpower]] is [[Crapsack World|the result of a life]] where she had the choice of becoming strong or [[Break the Cutie|lying down in a gutter to die]].
* [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: Seriously, he's an Immortal Demon King who could have killed the women and ravished the world if he wanted to. Instead he treats them with kindness and even creates a country for them. You think they would like build a shrine for him or something? Hell no!
** He probably wouldn't want something like that anyway.
* [[Ecchi]]: Lots of bath house shots of two main busty female protagonists.
** And the [[Meido|maid]]. And even the [[Token Mini -Moe]].
* [[The Empire]]: The Vansable Empire is conquering the world with extremely advanced technology.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Satan actually has a LOT of standards, but he is downright pissed when he finds out he's expected to sleep with Maple, who is under 10 years old. He seems displeased about whats in the book about him as well, given that from the sounds of it, most of it may very well just be pure fiction.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Princesses]]: Shortly after the manga starts, Satan gives up control of the island to Princesses Christina and Galett.
* [[Expy]]: Noel is very similar to Mahoro from ''[[Mahoromatic]]''. Just substitute the two locks of hair growing out of the sides of Mahoro's head for [[Unusual Ears|elf-like ears of about the same length]].
** [[Lampshaded]] in chapter 20, complete with [[Shout Out]].
Line 54 ⟶ 53:
* [[Genius Ditz]]: Christina is ''terrible'' at everything she tries {{spoiler|-- except strategy, where she's unbeatable.}}
* [[God Save Us From the Queen]]: The Queen of Estgloria, Christina's home country.
* [[Heroic Self -Deprecation]]: Both Christina and Galett have crushing self-esteem issues. Galett's are just better hidden behind her [[Action Girl]] facade.
* [[Highly -Visible Ninja]]: Hajime.
* [[Hit Points]]: Matilda has an eyepatch that can see them, but Galett seems aware of her own.
* [[Ill Girl]]: Christina. {{spoiler|4 years of being forcefed poison can do that to a person.}}
Line 99 ⟶ 98:
* [[Upperclass Twit]]: The First Prince of Estgloria.
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: Exoda enjoys spending his free time out fishing.
* [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Awesome?]]:
** Noel and the Layla Sisters haggling
** Christina playing chess.
* [[Wicked Stepmother]]: The Queen of Estgloria, who {{spoiler|has Christina's mother assassinated, had Christina poisoned for four years, and}} sent her off to be Satan's consort.
* [[Yank the DogsDog's Chain]]: There's a moment in chapter 1 where the inhabitants of Shina Dark think they'll be able to go back to their families. Then reality sinks in.
