Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Warning! Contains minor spoilers for MamaYuyu Chapter #1!Shonen Jump's newest manga has put a fresh spin on some tired Fantasy tropes, which makes it a must-read for fans of that genre. The series twists these tropes while also acknowledging other iconic series that have come before it like the dark fantasy masterpiece Berserk.
This new series is MamaYuyu, created by Yoshihiko Hayaki. It follows a teenager named Corleo who is the hero destined to defeat the Demon King. However, the fantasy world he lives in is currently in a time of peace, with demons and humans coexisting, and so he is uncertain about his purpose. The fact that he was raised by the Demon Lord certainly doesn't simplify matters, as the two have developed a strong familial bond.
MamaYuyu is a Refreshing Take On The Hero and Demon Lord Dynamic This is a clever take on the common fantasy story of a chosen hero setting out to defeat a wicked Demon Lord. In recent years, that trope has become quite trite as several series, many of them isekai series, have copied this formula with some very minor tweaks. This has in turn led to a variety of series parodying these tropes such as The Devil is a Part Timer, Konosuba, and Cautious Hero.
MamaYuyu's first chapter displays an earnestness that makes it a fun read even to the most jaded of Fantasy fans. The clever way in which it ties the Chosen roles of Hero and Demon Lord to a struggle for personal identity hints that it may have more to say than most stories using these tropes.
Fantasy Fans Need to Give MamaYuyu a Shot Despite the Risk Unfortunately, Shonen Jump is infamous for canceling excellent manga before they have a chance to fully develop their story. This means there is a risk of MamaYuyu being prematurely cut short after readers have become invested in its world and characters. Despite this risk, the manga's first chapter promises that it will be a joy to read for however long it lasts.
