Dororon Enma-kun Meeramera is a franchise of the Dororon Enma-kun comic released in the 70s and the whole anime have this feeling, with covered 70s music (which I actually liked the most in the whole show), animation style and phrases from the era. Usually I don't watch newer franchises unless I have watched the older ones, but this is an exception, as I was just too lazy to try to find the Dororon Enma-kun anime which aired 1973 to 1974. This anime is mainly targeted to those who grew up with the original anime and comic, and has some perverted jokes. There's no actual plot and is just make you laugh (and perhaps relive your youth if you're 45 or older, as I have heard the comic was quite raunchy, but I have never actually read it).
The anime has a lot of references to old school anime as well as some to things that has happened in Japan. This makes this anime, without a doubt, a Japan targeted one, but even without getting the references you can have a lot of fun watching it. I didn't particularly like it, but it made me laugh and I had moments of going "What?" laughing either harder.
Most of the characters are over-the-top, which also makes this anime more enjoyable. The 12 episodes were just about the length this series needed as it's not necessarily the anime you'd show to kids and has no actual plot. Perhaps unless you live in Japan. Harumi - a human, unlike the Demon Patrol consisting of Enma, Princess Yukiko, Kappaeru and the hat Chapeauji - gives a lot to the show even though she's quite plain.
I would have to say this anime should be watched with an open mind, as even though the animation is better than it generally was in the 70s, this show is as much 70s as it could be.
I'm friendly enough to give a rating to this one, and as I was enjoying it but in overall didn't like it (this sounds odd, but there are shows like that, at times), it gets the hard-to-get 3.5 rating.
