People don’t truly appreciate the amount of R&D that goes into making traps. I mean, you can’t let the heroes waltz up to the demon lord unscathed, can you?

Do you know how much logistical work goes into keeping the traps armed? In coming up with new, innovative ways to scathe, maim, and humiliate the humans? From slime that melts your clothes, to titillating tentacle traps—follow along with the Demon Lord’s underlings as they devise, concoct, and scheme up all new ways to strike fear in an adventurer’s heart.

In The Demons Are Planning Something Good!, Vol. 1 by Gashigashi and Takuji Kato, readers will delve into the mischievous minds of the demon realm and their relentless efforts to thwart human invaders.
