Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice

Story

The story is set in Evil Academy, where Lord Mao, the academy's top honor student (because he's never been to class), has decided that he needs to gain "the power of the hero" to get revenge on the Overlord, who also happens to be his father, after spending thousands of hours researching comics, anime and video games. Along the way, he meets Raspberyl, who introduces herself as an old friend of Mao's and the number one student at the academy (since she does all the homework, has perfect attendance and volunteers in her free time). Soon after, the two meet Almaz, who has come to protect the princess from the Overlord. Mao, seeing Almaz's title as "hero," kidnaps him while Beryl tries to rescue him. Eventually, Mao escapes with Almaz as classes begin and Beryl is not allowed to be late. Mao takes Almaz to his heart, where they can trade titles and Mao gets the power he needs to defeat the Overlord (he then comments on how frugal the game is, as the final boss is defeated in the first chapter). Mao and his slaves, including Almaz, who is now a "demon in training," face the Overlord, who is much larger than they expect. The fight actually takes place without the Overlord's knowledge on his own palm, and the group is thus defeated.
