What’s Helck About?

Helck takes place in a world where demons have their own realm and hold tournaments to decide who will be their King. The story is about Helck, who sneaks into the tournament and says he hates humans. Varmilio, one of the realm’s Four Heavenly Kings, finds out that the human is there and wants to stop him, but he soon faces another problem.

Helck’s Story Is Touching and Funny.

Even though Helck isn’t as popular as other fantasy shows like Inuyasha or Fairy Tail, members of the anime cast have said that Nanaki Namao’s manga is excellent. Katsuyuki Konishi said that even though the story is “full of jokes,” it was also “heartwarming,” and that “he was immediately drawn” into the story.
