For those who have not watched the series yet, Maou is a devil king who possessed immense demonic powers. His demonic force is stronger than anyone else due to abilities that make him stand out from other demons, including mind control, magical combat, telekinesis, and so on. But after his encounter with Emilia, he decided to flee to Earth, where he lost his powers.
Who Is Stronger: Maou or Emilia?
Maou is stronger than Emilia in The Devil is a Part-Timer. The main reason is that, despite Emilia being a powerful creature, she is still half-human, unlike Maou who is a full demon. Her victory against him during their clash was pure luck. She was at an advantage considering that she had a great number of comrades alongside her, while Maou only had one remaining general. Both of them were known for their intelligence and strategic skills. Emilia knew that the only way she could win against the demon king is to slowly eliminate his men and corner him. Maou used the same keen intelligence when he decided to back away from their battle and regain more energy and power on Earth. What both of them did not expect is that moving to Earth would give them weak and fragile bodies.
Are Maou and Emilia Better Off as Enemies or Friends?
While it is entertaining to see them fight against each other, Maou and Emilia are great allies. Both are considered strong and great strategists. Being equally weak on Earth has helped the two of them understand each other better, especially Emilia, whose hatred against the former demon king has slowly diminished after knowing her father is still alive. The reverse isekai series also showed that Maou saved her a couple of times, further strengthening their bond. Moreover, the two of them saved Japan together, which is not surprising considering how amazing the duo is. If they continue to work together and forget their past goals, they might actually be able to create a world of peace. Read More: Do Maou and Emi End Up Together in The Devil is a Part-Timer?
