Jahy-sama wa Kujikenai! (The Great Jahy Will Not Be Defeated!) is a Japanese comedy manga series by Wakame Konbu.
An anime TV series adaptation by Silver Link premiered in August 2021.
After a magical girl destroys the Dark Realm, Jahy, the second-in-command in the Dark Realm, finds herself in the human world, in the body of a little girl.
This anime is one of the most amusing reverse isekai I have seen. It has hilarious character interactions and the tragicomic daily life of Jahy-sama is simple to understand and also funny.
It’s definitely one of the shows you should consider watching after a stressful day because it’s an instant mood booster!

7. The Demon Girl Next Door

6. Endro~!

It has literally the same plot—a former powerful demon loses her power and is reduced to a child-like version of her old self. She is forced to live among humans.
Lots of cute and lighthearted moments in both, definitely enjoyable if you enjoy the ‘cute girls doing cute stuff’ trope.
Synopsis
The Demon Lord was defeated by the Hero’s party with a powerful magic spell but the magic spell was not perfect and the hero slipped the incantation which caused the time to reverse and all of them, including the Demon Lord, were sent back in time. Unfortunately for the party, the Demon Lord—now a little girl—has still the memories of the future!

An unfortunate turn of events causes Satan to transport to modern-day Tokyo where he starts a part-time job in a fast-food restaurant.
