Hozuki's Coolheadedness is pretty much a slice-of-life comedy involving Japanese mythical creatures as ogre Hozuki is mostly at the center of any humor he contributes through intentionally torturing his rivals, confidantes and even his boss Lord Enma. The series dabbles into the typical elements of slice-of-life comedies with pop culture nods, verbal puns and the often bizarre quirks of the characters. But with Hozuki at the center of things, it was hard for me to stay engaged to the show's humor since it mostly came across as dry due to his deadpan and always reserved delivery. Much like other slice-of-life comedies of its ilk, would only recommend this to those that love dabbling into the genre.
