Plot

[edit]

Toshiaki Gozu, a man who has fallen from society, is killed on page 3 of the manga. He discovers he has been reincarnated as a background character in a fantasy video game that he was enamored with in his childhood. Gozu encounters a younger form of Evelogia, the last boss of the game and Gozu's favorite character. In the story, Eve begins his start of darkness by accidentally injuring a background character; however, Gozu alters the course of the story by confessing to Eve that he is in love with him. Together, Gozu and Eve set out to destroy the world and prevent the game's hero from defeating Eve.[2]

Voiced by: Shun Horie[2] (Japanese); Ciarán Strange[3] (English)
Nicknamed Eve (イブ, Ibu), he is the Demon King and final boss of the game.[4] Eve had his start of darkness when he accidentally injures a background character, instilling fear in his village and family.[4] Eve has a "small and cute appearance", while Gozu describes him as "cool."[4]
Gozu (ゴズ)
Voiced by: Takuya Satō[2] (Japanese); Patrick M. Seymour[3] (English)
Gozu, whose real name is Toshiaki Gozu (牛頭利晃, Gozu Toshiaki), is a bold and aggressive man.[4] He is reincarnated as a background character into a fantasy video game that he had admired in his childhood.[2] He is described as "voluptuous" and "sexy."[4]

Voiced by: Hiroki Yasumoto[2] (Japanese); Will de Renzy-Martin[3] (English)
MacKiddie is a fighter-class character who is a member of the hero's party in the original game.[2][4] He originally joins the hero after he fails to stop a dragon from destroying his hometown; however, the course of the story is changed after Eve slays the dragon. MacKiddie falls in love with Eve.[4] Kaziwara stated in 2021 that she found MacKiddie "cute" and described him as "straightforward."[4] In addition, she enjoyed his character design.[4]
Odigos (オディゴス, Odigosu)
Odigos is a mage-class character who is a member of the hero's party in the original game.[5] A powerful magician, he is a teacher of an academy specializing in magic and maintains the magical barrier surrounding his town. Believing that Eve summoned Gozu into the world, Odigos forces them to attend the academy for a month in hopes of learning summoning magic in order to obtain mana shards to revive his grandmother. In the original story, he leaves the academy and is the final character to join the hero after the death of his grandmother; however, the course of the story is changed after Gozu is able to obtain a mana shard. Kaziwara describes him as the template of a "brilliant and cheeky tsun tsun shota" character.[6] Originally, she had planned on making Odigos fall in love with Gozu, but because of Eve and Gozu's personalities, she felt that a love triangle between them would not work out.[6]

Manga

[edit]

Reincarnated into Demon King Evelogia's World is written and illustrated by Io Kaziwara. It is serialized on the website ComicFesta under the Screamo label, as well as the mobile app Mecha Comic [ja], since April 16, 2020.[2][7] The chapters were later released in seven bound volumes by Suiseisha under the Glanz BL Comics imprint. The manga is distributed in English by Coolmic in webtoon format.[2]

In 2021, Kaziwara stated through an interview with Chil Chil [ja] that she enjoyed creating the costumes for the series; however, due to the amount of artistic detail in the manga, she developed severe tendonitis while drawing the first volume.[4] Regarding the second volume, Kaziwara mentioned that Panopia, the owner of the armor shop, became one of her favorite characters and that because he was the first dark-skinned character in her work, she felt his design was "fresh" and "fun to draw."[5] Kaziwara stated that the dance scene was her favorite scene in the volume, as she had envisioned drawing a dance scene where two characters "hold hands and dance."[5] As the characters received new outfits, Kaziwara stated she enjoyed designing them, but because she wasn't used to drawing them, she often missed details and colors.[5] She stated that Gozu's new outfit was MacKiddie's in the original game.[5] For the third volume, Kaziwara paid particular attention to Gozu's expressions.[6] Her favorite and most difficult scene to draw was the dining hall scene due to amount of background characters.[6]
