(Three episodes watched):

The main problem I have with Beelzebub is that the continually crying, peeing, electrically shocking (seriously) infant has a fingernails-screeching-on-chalkboard effect on me. Consequently, I greatly prefer Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? (which is no work of shining brilliance) over this series. There are plenty of other problems as well: this series is just not all that funny. Besides the strange premise, the series story doesn't seem to go anywhere all that unusual or suggest that exceptional talent was employed in making it. There is lots of 'comic' violence, but again it isn't all that funny--it verged on disturbing in episode three. I don't really hate any of the characters, but I don't particularly like any of them either. Oga is just a punk, after all. People getting 'zapped' time after time got tiresome in a hurry. I ultimately decided to drop this show.
