  1. 01Beelzebub S01E01I Picked Up the Demon KingS01E01 · 8.0Tatsumi Oga, a delinquent student at the worst high school in Japan, arrives at school with a small baby who emits massive shocks of electricity whenever it cries. Oga claims he found after splitting open a strange man who came floating along the river, though his friend Takayuki Furuichi doesn't quite believe. Whilst at Takayuki's house, they are both approached by a demon woman named Hildegarde who claims the baby, known as Kaiser de Emperana Beelzebub IV, is the son of Devil King who was sent to Earth to find a human to raise him so he could destroy humanity.
  2. 02Beelzebub S01E05Money can buy anythingS01E05 · 8.0After a sleep deprived night, Oga notices he has a strange mark on his hand, revealed to be Zebel Spell, a symbol of the contract between him and Beelzebub. Hildegarde and Alaindelon explain that a Demon Lord's parent is a vessel for his power, and the mark will grow the more opponents Oga defeats. Wanting to get rid of the mark, Oga decides to give up fighting in the hopes it'll make the mark smaller. Meanwhile, another delinquent, Tatsuya Himekawa, hires some thugs to kidnap Hildegarde and Takayuki in order to get Oga's attention. Oga uses Alaindelon to sneak in and forgoes his promise to beat Tatsuya's henchmen. Tatsuya goads Oga into hitting a cermanic plate hidden under his shirt, but his punch is so powerful it knocks him out anyway. Tatsuya then tries using a stun rod, but Oga resists it and uses Beelzebub's power to beat him, which in turn makes his mark larger.
  3. 03Beelzebub S01E06Toys Have Arrived from the Demon World / We Played DoctorS01E06 · 8.0The mark on Oga's arm goes back to its small size, much to the chagrin of Hildegarde who destroys his games console. She brings a play room for Beelzebub to play in, but upon building it, it turns out to be a magical cage that both she and Oga get stuck inside. The only way to get out is to have Beelzebub solve a block puzzle toy, but he just ends up breaking it. Frustrated, Oga utilises his Zebel power to punch his way out, though it makes his mark grow big again. Rummaging through a bag of demon world toys, Beelzebub opens a chest that transforms Oga and Takayuki into nurses, which can only be reverted by helping Beelzebub play Doctor. Oga decides to use the opportunity to try and do good deeds and get rid of his mark, though has trouble handling the demonic medical supplies. After some failed attempts at treating some of the students, they change back after discovering an actually useful tool on Beelzebub's costume, but accidentally triggers an explosive that negates all the work Oga did getting his mark down to size.
