it's not bad or good, it's an average story, mainly because of the MC's attitude, each character is remarkable, especially their personalities, but the MC is simply forgettable

sorry mistake English is not my native language

this review will contain a bit of spoiler, and is long

each character is interesting, and has a well-defined personality and they demonstrate this, the relationship between the characters is also interesting, and develops in pleasantly way, especially when they go through difficulties together, it is one of the best points of this story

worldbuilding is not good, there is hell but we don't know if there is heaven, angels, God, or Lucifer, a middle ground, nothing, we also know there was war, but against whom the hell fought, if it was a war between the races of hell itself as an internal conflict or if it was against something external, we don't know, basically there is earth and hell and nothing else until the chapter I read

The characters' background is interesting, it wasn't explored much but it was more than the MC, they have their families and their problems, in general, the "heroines" are better worked and realistic than the MC

the tags are a little off and the synopsis is misleading, the MC is not a student, he is a teacher who is only 3 years older than his students, you find this out in the first few chapters, the romance tag could have been removed, there is no romantic development when the MC doesn't even consider the advances he suffers from two other characters before ignoring them, I suppose this could change when the MC is forced to make a decision, the harem tag should be here even if it doesn't have romance because there are a lot of female characters around the MC

talking about the MC

background, we know little about the MC, a character from his past is implemented in the story but we know little about what happens between them, this character is the yandere, and she quotes a promise that we don't know until chapter I read (actually chapter 22), she was introduced in the first chapters, we know that the MC has a family with 5 succubus sisters and a mother who can be an ordinary actress or an adult movie actress, we don't know, it's not explained, Karazelle (his succubus student and principal heroine I guess) mentions his mother does movies and she is a fan, that's all.

 the MC despite being a 22-year-old incubus with this complicated family full of lust demons and "being less behaved" in his student days is still a virgin, don't get it wrong, I don't care if the character is a virgin or not, but this is a bit bizarre given his circumstances, from a family full of succubi, with a mother succubus possibly p**n actress, to not being well behaved as a student, being an incubus which is very rare (and apparently hunted by female demons), being surrounded by succubus in his student days (bullied by them which miraculously didn't evolve into a reverse rape) and having a yandere stalker after him should be more than enough to lose the V-card, all of them to be honest.

the MC is the perfect archetype of the Japanese beta MC, this has positives and negatives points, on the positives he is a good person with a good heart, and he has the determination to do things even if they are dangerous for those he considers important, and not keeps chasing skirts like a horny dog

in the negative, even if he does dangerous things, he always seems to be doing it scared to death, that he is all the time forced against the corner, that he takes a risk and goes to the aid of his students/friends not because he cares, but because he has no choice from the reader's point of view, he has no self-confidence (or he has? He encourages himself all the time), he has no backbone, he is a leaf being carried by the river, always on jelly-like legs, stuttering, nobody respects him even if he is the teacher, his word is practically ignored, it's at the level where the yandere who should idolize his words doesn't even care what he says and comes to her own conclusions before he ends his words, it doesn't help that whenever he opens his mouth to her it's for making excuses, and he can't even finish before his sentence is cut off by her or anyone else and they do as they please.

and even though he doesn't chase skirts, his lack of reaction to female advances makes us question if he's a eunuch, or if he's interested in the opposite s*x or not, the succubus (Karazelle, the first, maybe principal heroine) and the yandere (Elya, the fallen) practically throw themselves at the MC all the time, especially the succubus that invades the MC's room in the morning and at night whenever she can and the MC just ignores it, don't have s*x, doesn't enter into a relationship or rejects it, don't expulse her from the room, nothing, doesn't control the yandere who almost kills the other characters several times, doesn't assume or reject a relationship with anyone

in conclusion, the characters are amazing, interesting with their own stories, growing and evolving, slowly improving into better versions of themselves, but the MC is an unwilling character, Izzbelle, the furious oni, would be a better protagonist than the MC, she has more personality and background than the MC, it's like @Nemesia said, it's practically Rosario vampire, but with demons where the MC just go with the flow, but in Rosario vampire, at least in the manga, the MC gets strong and badass when he transforms, I would like the MC here to be the same, not badass or strong, but that he imposes himself, his will and stop letting others run over him, stop stuttering, don't accept what others say even if he's going to be beaten, it was admirable him being like that with Whitney, even when he goes against izzbelle, but, sadly, he doesn't take decision with karazelle the succubus, and  just accepting everything from Alison the mad scientist and Elya the yandere

the characters make it worth reading, they are interesting, while the MC not so much, he needs development and learns to impose himself

I don't know what to expect when I picked it up to read (shocking, I know), but this story exceeds my expectations. Its setting and premise reminds me of Mahou Sensei Negima and Rosario + Vampire. The pacing is a little slow and takes a while to get used to the episodic writing, but the story and characters are just too good to pass up. This kind of writing style is interesting in a way, and while not amazing, is a pretty decent read. I loved this one, and you will too.

Great story from start to end, wonderful characters, and the MC actually grows a spine over time!

Lemme start this off by saying that I've been following this story since it's wattpad days, and it's come pretty far since then so props for that.

Infernal Academia is a story about a new demon teacher and his students, who engage in a helluva lotta funny, racy and sometimes violent shenanigans.  Our protag Cobalt is kinda a wet sandwich, but he sticks to his morals, and does wind up getting stronger.  Its a slow paced kinda deal

The story has actually come a long way.  When I first read it, it was more or less a series of disconnected fluff chspters, but now there's a proper underlying plot and the characters have all been deepened.

Uhhhh good story for characters, especially ones with some depth to em.  Its got some haremy vibes initially, but each character has actual motivations and personalities outside of kinda liking Cobalt, so that's good too.

There's the odd spelling mistake, but that's not really a huge turnoff.

But yah if you're lookin for a story with some heart to it, I'd definitely suggest Infernal Academia.
