I’m in a slump. This is boring and weird. Sakura is WAAAAY too into cleaning to be healthy. Also, way to go with THE most stereotypical MC h name ever.
I’m also not keen on the trope of “virginal barely legal teen girl’s innocent personality captivates the hundred year old demon king and sparks his interest when mature age-appropriate adult of his species do nothing for him”. Squick.
2, I completely read this wrong and I’m reading the next since I bought it ages ago and I refuse to waste the money by not attempting to read it, stars.

This story just gets sillier by the second and I love it! I like that we're getting to see the human realm a bit as well and how they view demons. I'm rather curious about the Holy King. He doesn't seem like he'll be a villain but as he's on the opposite side it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out. The best part was the cute random panels showing Noah's progress to get to the Demon Realm. Just a fun story to read.

So cute. I just love how jealous the king gets and how clueless he is about why he feels that way, so cute.

I laughed so much with this!! This girl is something else! 😂 I am curious about the other woman. Granted the King is a kind of a weirdo but have some self respect woman. Don't throw yourself at a guy then get pissed when he isn't that into you. 😂 Can't wait to see what's next for this kid.

Sakura is on a quest to educate demons on the differences of different cleaning chemicals and their correct application. Meanwhile, the demon king seems oddly drawn to Sakura, not that he'd ever likely admit it. We now have Noah, the hero, throwing himself into the mix at the end and just how that will play out. Especially as Sakura seems to still be sleeping at the time of his breaking in for a daring (if unneeded) rescue. If anything, all of the demons seem to adore Sakura and are learning to take pride in their work now that they are having to rely on knowledge and hand work rather than just magic to easily get things done.

Is is too much to ask that I want the Demon King for myself? (sorry God)
The second book in this wonderful fantasy series follows the main character Sakura who got dropped into a demon realm. The demon king is infatuated as ever with her and watching him keep an eye on her and take care of her is just so adorable. I love the grumpy x sunshine tropes and this one is going to be amazing. Especially with the power imbalance and their differences. I look forward to what happens next now that Noah has arrived to the castle.

This series is just ridiculous and I love it. I love that it's like a reverse magical girl because she has the familiar, but her "magic" is science, and she only "transforms" into gowns when the Demon King wants her to stop or sleep! (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ and I love the subtly to the King touching his chest and the way his eyes shift. Nothing is overtly spelled out. And you just know that when Noah shows up all dirty and tattered, she's gonna flip and want him clean and the jealousy...lol!

The romance is still eh. It keys into the comedy and the side cast a lot harder here. I do wish there was more cleaning info since thats my favorite part but I understand the need for a balance for a more broadly pleasing product even if it cuts through me some. The art is really beautiful though with nicely rendered backgrounds and lots of fun little objects drawn in. It can make the layout feel a bit cluttered at times. The "money shots" of the Demon King himself are alright.

It’s ok, though her obsession with cleaning is weird. It gives tips on how to clean, so that’s interesting in an educational way.
I am baffled why everyone says the king saved her from the wolves. Sadden is the one that caught her…even if she saw that he took the lead, instead of catching her himself, he just delegated the task.

funny and light hearted
This is a cute book, this series is lighthearted no deep thinking required. Just an enjoyable, cute story. With good-natured demons who apparently can’t clean. And ottoku who’s obsessed with cleaning.

This is such an amusing story, unlike anything I've read. Excited to see where it goes from here.

It’s very cute. I applaud the creator’s dedication to weaving cleaning tips into the story. 😂 And the pining on the demon king’s part is quite fun.

Such a fun read with unique world building, a loveable protagonist, and a great romance with fantastic chemistry!

Like the first one, beautiful art and a cute story. I found this one a little less intriguing than the first.

Sometimes Sakura's obsession is over-the-top to the point of distraction, but this series is still cute.

So cute!!!!! I love the slow burn and the hints about the human realm!

1.5 stars.

Still cute, but a bit too uneventful. I was hoping Noah was going to show up earlier and stir things up.

I have a terrible feeling about the white king or whatever he is.
