** It's not impossible. Especially given the level of technology they seem to be at. Taking the "Hell phones" used by the cast as an example, they look closer in line to a phone from the early 2000s, with only the ability to send text messages calls, with no internet access. Unless Iruma's intended to come from an earlier point in time than the manga's beginning, by 2017 (when the series got its start) smartphones should've become widely available in the human world, but seem to not be a thing in the demon world. So it's possible that, due to lack of contact between worlds being limited to few high ranking demons, what technology they ''do'' borrow from humans comes at a delay.
** It may also have to do with the demons general reliance on magic over technology. They're a species that has adapted towards magic for their everyday needs. So unless it's something like a phone which they don't have magic available to do themselves, they had no real ''need'' to spend time inventing new technology, when their pride and livelihood mostly depends on the ability to do spells. So of course, the one place they would end up getting what technology they do have is through humanity.

[[WMG: Iruma is either a descendant of Delkira or his reincarnation.]]
Every bit of foreshadowing laid on Iruma has connected him to Delkira in some way. From the spirit of the Ring of Gluttony being Arikured which is backwards pronunciation of Delkira, to lines in the Demon King Prophesy lining up exactly with Iruma's actions/circumstances in the Netherworld, to Poro feeling like he was looking at Delkira during the Music festival, and finally to the future visions that Alice and Iruma have had.
* Keen readers will also note that Evil Cycle Irumi in the Evidol Games was wearing a suspiciously similar outfit and hairstyle to Delkira in all of the flashbacks.

[WMG: Ameri is actually half-human and half-demon. (And her father knows it.)]]
With the exception of Balam, who literally specializes in researching humans as his field of study, the demon we've seen who's arguably the most fascinated by humans in general is Ameri. There's two things that explain her fascination - the Forbidden Texts in her possession and her father's position as the security chief of the Demon Border Patrol. As we are all well aware, the Forbidden Texts in Ameri's possession are, in reality, volumes of a shoujo manga (known as Hatsukoi Memory) that have made their way to the netherworld. The first thing that comes to mind is, well, how did they even get there? These are human world texts, items considered to be completely mythical to demons. While it is possible for both people and human world objects to cross the border into the netherworld (and vice versa), it's specifically the job of Ameri's father to make sure that this does not happen. While the exact details of Hatsukoi Memory's crossing into the underworld are unknown, there's a more interesting question at play here: How did these texts specifically get into Ameri's possession? Might have they been passed down from her father to her, with Henri strictly warning Ameri not to look at them? Ameri really wants to keep the fact that she's reading the Forbidden Texts a secret from her father, after all. But if that's the case, why would Henri give this order to his own daughter?
Perhaps Henri has his own secret that he wants kept from his daughter in order to protect her. As the security chief of Demon Border Patrol, Henri has to deal with frequent attempts at crossing the human world/netherworld border. It's extremely likely, if not almost certain, that he's aware of both the existence of humans and the fact that Iruma is one. Otherwise, Henri wouldn't have suddenly regaled to him the story of a human he met that had crossed into the netherworld - one whom he eventually brought back to the human world...wait a minute, have we ever heard anything about who Ameri's mother is? We're shown the families of multiple prominent characters quite a few times, including Ameri. She really only has just her father, it seems. But she has to have a mother as well, right? Yet we've nary a whiff of an explicit hint at her. Or so we might think, because it's quite possible that her mother is the human that Henri met. We don't know much of the details of this meeting Henri describes besides the fact that they met and that Henri eventually had to return her. As far as I know, it's possible that an entire love story between Henri and the human could've taken place, perhaps beginning with Henri taking interest in a certain manga that the human was reading, which launches a bunch of secret reading sessions between the two that mirror those of Amelie and Iruma's. Maybe they had a baby daughter together, and when the threat of being caught became too great, Henri returned the human to the human world to live out the rest of her life there while he took care of their daughter? (He is the doting, somewhat overprotective father, after all.)
What if Amelie was a hybrid of human and demon, and Henri wishes for that fact to be kept a family secret? And Amelie reading the Forbidden Texts sets her on a path to discover this?
If you'd like more evidence, how about this then: Every demon possesses a pair of large dark draconic wings - this is a constant within the variety of character designs. By that definition, every demon should be able to fly, and with relative ease at that. Well we've never actually seen Ameri spread her wings. This in itself doesn't mean anything until you bring her more action-focused scenes into the picture. Ameri's fight against a magic beast at Walter Park consisted of her only using her bloodline ability, and one of her actions is to use said ability to jump high into the air before delivering a massive kick to her target. She does the exact same thing during her date with Iruma at a water park, as well. Her bloodline ability has built in recoil depending on how much it's used, so if you needed to gain height, why not just fly up? Perhaps being a half-human and half-demon gave her defective wings - ones that couldn't be used for flight.
One more piece: According to Clara, demons tend to get easily bored. This makes Amelie's hardworking, determined, and ambitious attitude extremely unusual among demons, as this makes her stand out from the rest of the students. Perhaps these traits that define her so well came from her human side.
Thank you for reading!

[[WMG: Iruma (and humans in general) is not as magicless as Iruma assumes.]]
Iruma is shown doing magical things even before he gets his ring. He casts the forbidden spell during the entrance speech. He binds Kalego as a familiar and summons him. His blood heals the King of the Valley. The ring allows him to use demon type magic, or at least use it more easily. But it seems like he can do magical things without it.
* The familiar elements could be outside magic; Kalego creates the familiar binding circle, Iruma just feeds it his blood. And summoning Kalego the first time requires a seal from the school store, possibly already empowered.
* Healing the King of the Valley could just be a natural property of human blood, and thus the reason the demons want to eat humans.
* Considering all the references to Solomon I figured 2 things. 1) The Demon King has to be a human, and that 2) The human must have some magical ability they may not be aware of. While the healing and summon can be contributed to outside interference, the forbidden spell incident had to have been caused by Iruma directly. He may not have a lot of magic ability, but he has enough to at least potentially trigger spells.

[[WMG: The Valac family is, at least in part, [[ToonTown toon]].]]
Evidence: [[HammerSpace Hammerspace]], screwball, sudden songs.
* A possible historical reconstruction: in ancient times a toon arrived in the Netherworld because of a [[PortableHole portal]] or a WrongTurnAtAlbuquerque, and mixed with the population, becoming the ancestor of the Valac family.
** Some violent encounters may have occurred initially, culminating in the [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny hunter-rabbit]] [[HilarityEnsues situation]]: repeatedly and the toon character was considered as a demon [[TheTrickster trickster]], that was acceptable in the Netherworld.
*** And the unusual abilities were seen as a magic lineage.
** The song thing suggest ''more'' characters from Toontown: at least a [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Looney Tunes]] and a [[WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies Disney]] character.
*** And the songs have Hollywood [[SpontaneousChoreography Choreography]].

Iruma is shown doing magical things even before he gets his ring. He casts the forbidden spell during the entrance speech. He binds Kalego as a familiar and summons him. His blood heals the King of the Valley. The ring allows him to use demon type magic, or at least use it more easily. But it seems like he can do magical things without it.
* The familiar elements could be outside magic; Kalego creates the familiar binding circle, Iruma just feeds it his blood. And summoning Kalego the first time requires a seal from the school store, possibly already empowered.
* Healing the King of the Valley could just be a natural property of human blood, and thus the reason the demons want to eat humans.
* Considering all the references to Solomon I figured 2 things. 1) The Demon King has to be a human, and that 2) The human must have some magical ability they may not be aware of. While the healing and summon can be contributed to outside interference, the forbidden spell incident had to have been caused by Iruma directly. He may not have a lot of magic ability, but he has enough to at least potentially trigger spells.

Just based solely off the opening credit sequence
[[WMG: The Valac family is, at least in part, [[ToonTown toon]].]]
Evidence: [[HammerSpace Hammerspace]], screwball, sudden songs.
* A possible historical reconstruction: in ancient times a toon arrived in the Netherworld because of a [[PortableHole portal]] or a WrongTurnAtAlbuquerque, and mixed with the population, becoming the ancestor of the Valac family.
** Some violent encounters may have occurred initially, culminating in the [[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny hunter-rabbit]] [[HilarityEnsues situation]]: repeatedly and the toon character was considered as a demon [[TheTrickster trickster]], that was acceptable in the Netherworld.
*** And the unusual abilities were seen as a magic lineage.
** The song thing suggest ''more'' characters from Toontown: at least a [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Looney Tunes]] and a [[WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies Disney]] character.
*** And the songs have Hollywood [[SpontaneousChoreography Choreography]].
