The Misfit of Demon King Academy: History's Strongest Demon King Reincarnates and Goes to School with His Descendants,[Jp. 1] also known simply as The Misfit of Demon King Academy[Jp. 2] or Demon King Academy,[Jp. 3] is a Japanese light novel series written by Shu and illustrated by Yoshinori Shizuma. The series originally began as a web novel in April 2017 on the user-generated novel publishing website Shōsetsuka ni Narō when it was later acquired by ASCII Media Works, which officially began to publish it in March 2018. A manga adaptation by Kayaharuka was serialized online from July 2018 to July 2021, when it ended due to the author's death. An anime television series adaptation produced by Silver Link aired from July to September 2020. A second season aired from January 2023 to July 2024.
