I came across this manga a long time ago on the internet, and my curiosity finally got the better of me when I decided to give it a read.
After trudging through 84 chapters and forcing myself to finish it, I have to admit that I was rather disappointed with this work.
To be honest, it was tough to get through, and I struggled to like the heroine in particular. The entire manga felt overly cheesy to me. While there were a few redeeming qualities—like the decent artwork and the sweet, cute relationship between Ayame and Ryo (my favorite characters in the story)—I didn't find much else to enjoy. It's disappointing because I had heard so many positive reviews about it.
If anything, this manga might appeal to those looking for a guilty pleasure or a quick fix of steamy romance without much depth or character development, filled with plenty of drama. That's what I can honestly say.
Overall, it had an average story and characters. That's all I have to share.

Before I continue, let me clarify that I tend to be generous when it comes to ratings.
Let’s start with the "genre." From what I’ve observed so far, this seems to be a reverse-harem and reverse-ecchi (assuming such a genre exists), which is essentially an ecchi harem aimed at a female audience. While I personally enjoy it—after all, I’m a female reader who rated my enjoyment as an "8"—there’s still a small, sensible voice in the back of my mind pointing out areas where this manga falls short.
*Switching to sensible mode:*
There are countless ways a character could heal someone: long-distance magic, chanting spells, waving magical charms, and more. Yet, out of all these possibilities, the author chose licking. Why? For fan-service, of course.
The Female Protagonist (Misao) summarized in one sentence:
She. Is. Like. A. God.
Imagine you’re a demon—better yet, a male demon. Now, allow me to introduce a miraculous product. Feeling exhausted? No problem! Just kiss or hug this incredible girl, and she’ll restore your energy like a healing fountain. Why does this happen? Who knows. Maybe because she’s actually a GOD. That’s not all, though! Swallow her, and you’ll gain eternal life. (Again, no explanation needed.) Not satisfied? Marry her instead, and both you and your family will enjoy unparalleled prosperity! Oh, and did I mention her irresistible scent that makes every demon want to... well, let’s leave it at that.
The entire plot revolves around her godly blessings. Various demons vie for her attention, leading to endless conflicts and complications.
Now, about the main male character's "true form" outfit—it’s ridiculous. It looks like a bizarre mashup of "ninja," "fallen angel," and "samurai" costumes straight out of a low-budget movie. Yes, I’ve confirmed that this is how a traditional "tengu" is supposed to appear, but that doesn’t make it any less funny. Also, why does he need long hair in his true form but not in his human form? Anyone care to explain? Perhaps he just loves his long hair too much to part with it during transformations. Or maybe it magically grows when he shifts shapes. And don’t forget, he’s also the one with the healing tongue—a full-time pervert.
So far, I haven’t noticed much depth in the characters. They seem like typical stereotypes to me.
You might think I’m biased, and that’s fine.
In conclusion, it’s a decent read if you don’t mind excessive fan-service and a female protagonist with godlike powers. If those elements bother you, I’d advise steering clear.
