I agree. The akuma really do look rediculous for the most part, and the slapstic comedy elements really do make this anime feel very unbalanced. I'm not averse to comedy elements in dark anime, but they shouldn't undermine the general mood of the show. So far I've given it 3 stars based on my viewing so far, mostly for the great, victorian gothic animation and the bits of the show that conform in mood to the settings. Otherwise it's just a typical shounen with cliche characters.
