Anime Hataraku Mao-Sama! (The Devil is a Part-Timer!)is adapted from light novel series by Wagahara Satoshi. The story follows demon lord Satan who is on the verge of conquering his alternate world when he is whisked away, transported to modern day Tokyo. Now, under his earth name Sadao Mao, he finds himself working part-time at a fast food restaurant. He has plans to conquer this new world of Japan but must over-come his first challenge – move up to a full-time employee. Additionally he must content with Heroine Emilia who has also arrived in Japan in pursuit of the demon lord Satan. (ed. plot sounds very funny if not a bit like Ika Musume (Squid Girl) meets Wagnaria!! (Working!!) – looking forward to it!).
