Vermeil in Gold (Season 1)

Vermeil in Gold (2022) is a fantasy anime you can watch online on iFILM. Alto Goldfield has flunked his familiar summoning and is staring down a repeat year at the Ortigia magic academy. Desperate, he digs through the library, finds an old forbidden grimoire, and instead of a harmless pet he conjures Vermeil — a legendary she-devil whose name shows up in textbooks next to the word "disaster."

From there it's a contract turned upside down: an ancient being of monstrous power bound to serve a barely-passing freshman. Vermeil draws her strength from kisses, loves teasing Alto into a flustered mess, and flattens anything that threatens him once a fight starts. Around the pair are classmates, instructors, and enemies far nastier than midterm exams. The show adapts Kouta Amana's manga and was produced by Staple Entertainment.

This is a reverse-isekai built around ecchi comedy — light, quick, and not pretending to be more than that. It lands for anyone after fan service mixed with flashy magic brawls and the classic all-powerful-partner-plus-weak-hero dynamic. Stream Vermeil in Gold (2022) online on iFILM.
