A forgettable tale featuring the story of the love life of the demon lord and the angel now that they have regained their memories, which could and should have been executed in a way that this manga would become a moment of joy. But far from that, it is rather the drink of disappointment which you would like to avoid.

Now to touch on the premise a little bit, both the female and male leads suddenly remember their past lives where they were the demon king and the angel/god respectively. And now in the current lives they are in relationship with each other. Decent premise, right? ... Also the demon lord was male in the past life, female in the current one, basically little gender bender action, providing a bit of a leeway for more possibilities in the story.

But apparently the author had other plans. Continued to ignore every other possible prospect which could have made up for at least a readable manga, and chose to focus on the most boring gimmick. Starting from the start, we were revealed about their past lives, thus some rivalry to lovers journey should have been enjoyable. But author chose to ignore that. That "past live memories" was made into second nature a bit too soon, just no realistic reaction to the event at all. A second lead was introduced not too long after that, so maybe a love triangle would not be so bad right? But as the female lead was tied to the male from the start, that possibility was might as well had been zero. Somewhere in the middle, we were told about the gender bender thing, so maybe some jokes regarding it right? No. And countless other possibilities all spurned to result in a manga containing uninteresting events, cheesy one liners and blushing faces all around.

And my god, the amount of characters introduced by the author is abysmal. It looked like he was making chapters just to insert a new character to the already boring roster. And about the characters, they were hella cliché and cringe. Cardboard cutout characters who do not serve any purpose whatsoever. Art was mediocre as well combined with uninteresting panel layout.

Overall, a rushed manga always opting for the wrong direction.
