Brad Gallaway reviews Makai Kingdom, and thinks that it's a valuable successor to its predecessors:
"By now everyone's heard of the surprise Strategy Role-Playing Game (SRPG) smash Disgaea. Developers Nippon Ichi made a name for themselves overnight with Disgaea's mix of humor and excellently localized dialogue, immensely deep customization, and solid tactics play. It sent a jolt to players and reminded them that this thinning niche hadn't died quite yet. However, their subsequent releases have failed to keep the momentum going with the same meteoric impact. But, despite the slightly dimmer limelight, their most recent release is an excellent return to form and a better game in many ways than the one that started their instant dynasty."
