Being EXTREMELY new to manga (this is the second volume I've ever read of any series), I had fun with this. I feel that it had heart and soul while also being a bit raunchy and quirky/zany and surprisingly somewhat heartfelt. Pochita is my favorite character so far, I'm excited to see how that changes, considering I like them because they are a dog demon (the human characters obviously haven't had as much time to establish themselves). I also really loved the art style, and I think the world building was really cool. I'm very invested in learning more about how the world and its devils work.
