My rating is very biased as i love this manga personally. I will try to help you to decide either to read or skip this manga.

In general, story is pretty lame for a someone who is looking for out of the box. You should avoid this manga if you want dominating OP MC or cultivation.

This manga is about a character wise normal guy who have lot of magic capacity and ended up making contract with a older demon girl (reason is clarified in manga).MC is not weak and main girl is also very powerful. Plot revolves around their wholesome and comedic interactions in ... typical fantasy school setting.

Multiple girls are interested in MC so it does have harem, but it's majorly for fan service and comedy.

I does gives onee shota vibes, so decide accordingly.


I have rated it 10 because i would love to have someone like Vermeil (demon girl) in my life, hence biased.

How do I begin here… it sure has been quite some time since my last review on either anime or manga. English is neither my main language, soo… expect some grammatical errors yeah! Nonetheless, I will try to keep this review simple and straightforward.

Kinsou no Vermeil (KNV) may seem unpopular and somewhat clichéd; however, it sparks a bright light along the way as I read through the chapters. KNV are one of those mangas that seemed generic and clichéd, yet irresistibly addictive and enjoyable.

The writer introduces the main characters in a way where we can slowly learn their characteristics as the story goes on (I ... guess that’s how all characters are introduced, but in this case it’s in a good way).

Our main protagonists, Alto, is described as a shy yet brave and heroic deep inside his heart. This may be generic and clichéd, and I agree with that. This is nothing new compared to other characters, which in my opinion is okay. Moving on, Vermeil, is described as a cheeky one-san with her own issues as the story goes on.
What I liked about the author’s approach to Vermeil is the way that her character development is done in a way that it gives you the fuzzy feeling of wholesomeness. In my experience, this kind of character development is rather rare, idk maybe it’s just me who can’t clearly see other character development. I don’t want to get into much detail here since it will spoil the story.

Visual-wise, the artist did a really good job here. Even though Alto seems a little generic compared to other shota-oneesan-kind-of-manga, Vermeil and other side characters was designed in a way that is unique and refreshing to see. Visual effects like fight scenes are well drawn and clear to see, and importantly text bubbles (or whatever they call it) were placed in the proper spots, making it easy to read and see the illustrations at the same time.

TL: DR, good manga, kind of cliché yeah whatever we all know what it is. Illustrations were done well, making it refreshing to read this occasionally. Characters are very likeable and enjoyable to see their developments. Really looking forward to the upcoming chapters.
7.5/10 nice!

magic school, seductive demon onee-san, annoying childhood friend. guess that's about it. oh, and magic battle

story is ok. bit too generic but also has something in it that many could enjoy. light hearted comedy, sexy onee-chan, magic battle...sexy onee-san, and.. sexy onee-san

pacing a bit fast. sometime it tried to have some interpersonal conflict in the serious moment but it always ended up in one chapter with little to none impact.

it's not too heavy on the exposition which is a plus. also it does that thing that shounen love to use : turning the bad guy into the good guy, and potraying ... them in a better light after their arc end. which is fine, if it done well. the key word is "if"

characters is ok, except for the childhood friend. i know it's an popular trope, but damn she is annoying. talk about overused.


art is average. it's not bad, but it's not great either. it's easy in the eye, but that's about it i guess.


basically, if you like kind hearted mc, who are super shy and prude (the kind of guy that always shout "y-you only did that kinda thing with someone you like!!!" while blushing so hard, he become tomato)
and a sly onee-san who always tease him and try to get under his pant. combined with some magic battle (with a lot of talk no jutsu in them), then good news! this is for you, you're gonna enjoy it.
