Yuusha explains how the war that the demons have brought upon the humans have killed thousands and put more in misery. Maou however argues that this war has allowed humans to band together as one resulting in increased population, increased production, a boosted economy, and an improved society overall. Furthermore, she explains to Yuusha that ending this war will result in a civil war that will produce more bloodshed than there ever was. Yuusha, convinced that the only way to bring peace, relatively speaking, is to join forces with Maou, agrees to help her.

This version feels more seinen, and not a chibi in sight. | Pax Empyrean |

I think it's an amazing series and I wish I could read the books, but that is a tad ridiculous though I do appreciate each artists efforts.
I mean, the only thing I can think of that comes even close to this phenomenon are all the mangas surrounding the Romance of the Three Kingdoms epic and those generally come from somewhat different perspectives/protagonists as well as I don't think most of those were being released simultaneously (plus that story practically requires multiple depiction with the amount of characters and events).
I mean if anyone knows why/how they decided to do 5 series at the same time please enlighten me, although
@soranokira I don't think 5 different endings is exactly likely considering that one of the serializations is a 4-koma gag strip and the others have yet to break from the overall plot
i dont c it"
I suspect you wouldn't.
Also, potatoes are amazing!
i dont c it
he just said the truth
everyday english we use is low-context and thats all there is
I agree that this can't be compared to Higurashi. The current closest contender is Papa no Iukoto o Kikinasai, where the alternate adaptations are running together as well.
As for this version.. Ugh.. All the cute stuff made with serious drawings.. Is a bit... unsettling.. The knee-pillow isn't as adorable.. The maid sisters looks like they come from a seinen manga..
Hopefully the art justifies the later stories o.o
All 4(?) versions are being run at the same time, none of them are "finished".

It's like I'm watching Ballmer on stage all over again. You are either going to end up reading all the versions, or missing out on something good.
I'll give what info I can about it, though.
It's called Maoyuu Maou Yuusha: Episode 0. The story leading to the beginning (『まおゆう魔王勇者』エピソード0 始まりに至る物語)
It consists of two parts. The first is called 勇者編「出立」 (roughly TLs to: Hero Chapter: Departure). The other is 魔王編「恋慕」 (roughly TLs to: Demon Lord Chapter: Love / Falling in Love / Tender Emotions [unsure of TL])
Unfortunately, I don't think you'd be able to see it unless you're in Japan. It's playing in Shibuya Public Hall.
You can find more info by going to the official site. It's in Japanese, though.
And when I said the original, I was referring to the novel, I know that the story was originated from 2ch though.
The artist for "Be mine, Hero. I refuse!" is Ishida Akira
The artist for "On the other side of the hill" is Touge Hiro
The artist for this one is Asami You
Idon't know the artist for the other ones.
On a side note, the wall of text was very interesting. I hadn't thought that maybe the demons that hero killed to get famous might not have been any threat to humans at all.
While there are many spin-offs, this one has the original title without any additional text.This would lead me to believe that it's the official manga version, and the others are alternate stories (similar to how Papa no Iukoto o Kikinasai! has numerous spin-offs, but all the spin-offs have an additional title such as "Chronicles of Street Observation Research" or "Mark of the Rabit").
Either way, all the manga are on different magazines, but the only one you can read on the website is the 4koma. xD
Although, this version has it's own page linked to on the official website.
Also, as a heads up to anyone interested, there's some sort of live action play of Maoyuu Maou Yuusha as well. At least, that's what I could grasp with my very limited understanding of Japanese.
Hope you can enjoy MMY in all it's forms! ツ
I like this read nevertheless.
