Story: 3/10

This is a very, very, overused, unoriginal, and tired harem story. Harem story is one term, because harem stories can be very interesting and cool. However, this is one that you could get from anywhere else. There isn't anything new, even with this sort of supernatural-twist that comes with every harem series that has no originality to it.

Art: 4/10

Even as a person who doesn't really mind moe, there is moe prevalent throughout all the character designs. But I still wouldn't mind that. In fact, the girls in this series are quite cute. No, what makes this moe different is...nothing. This is art and ... character design that is indistinguishable from a lot of other series with bishoujo in them. The manga-ka is a former hentai artist, which makes this the least explicit thing that he's done.

Speaking of which, the reason this is decent is because the eye candy is quite good, expected from someone with the manga-ka's credentials.

The fight scenes are poorly constructed; I can barely tell what's going on in one panel or another. Plus, you won't even be interested in the fight scenes because the story is so boring.

Character: 2/10

I can safely say that Yuuto is the first harem protagonist I've seen that I didn't like not because he was a major fucking douchebag (Rin from SHUFFLE! and Makoto from School Days). No, it's just that he's JUST a nice guy. That's it; he doesn't have a lot of personality outside of that. And the density of the character isn't really examined, expanded upon, or played with. Ichika Orimura may be a moron, but his density is massive enough to make him at least passably interesting. That's right; Yuuto is boring enough to reflect poorly on Ichika Orimura, who I have mixed feelings about.

Really, those are the points I have to cover. This series is boring, and you should avoid it if you don't want to be bored. As it is an ecchi harem and moe series, you'll enjoy it even less if you don't like that. In fact, in that case you'll probably hate this series.

I have read quite a few harem, ecchi, etc. type mangas and they all have somethig that half decent even if the pplot is nonsensical. This is often the comedy like Rysing x Rydeen or the characters like Rosario to Vampire. This manga howerver has no redeeming features as everything it does has been done before but better by other mangas. Nyan Koi beets it in the cat allergies plotline department. To Love Ru does the ecchi better. Rosar to Vampire does action better.

Story - 2
Its about youkai, so its basically been done to death. However its been really poorly as the action and ... the plot is unbelievably boring.

Art - 5
The art is mediocre at best and not nice to look at in the slightest.

Character - 1
Terribly cliche and boring with the main character being the most spineless, useless piece of shit ever.

Overall - 2
The comedy is shit, the characters, story and art are shit, so avoid this like the plague it's unbelievably boring.

Generic, pretty much sums up this manga. A story of a boy, who inherited some powers and a cat demon, add in a childhood friend, a few more demons, and there you have it.

The story doesn't have much of a plot anyways since there's just 1 bad guy in the entire series, ending was poor, MC doesn't really get that much stronger anyways, still an unreliable boy with naive dreams. I don't even think it's much of a conclusive ending. Fight scenes ... were pretty lame too. All the other character is also pretty generic, there's not much background story that'll make you emotional or anything so i didn't really get attached to any of the characters.

wouldn't recommend this manga, except you're just a harem completionist, nothing really stands out, a pretty borish manga I would say.
