   This had some potential, despite being basically a checklist of cliches, but it was all wasted in the first 20-something chapters. The main problems are definitely the half assed rushed “resolutions” of situations that involves lots of emotional weight, trauma and grievances that makes not only the entire plot look silly at best (but really, it just seems utterly superficial and depthless), but it also goes to extreme lenghts to justify/turn a blind eye to gross behaviors, SPECIFICALLY of the male characters. And that’s the main problem for me in particular: the misogynistic takes are just way too wild to ignore. I kid you not, as per chapters 20-23 the ML sexually harrasses the FL openly, pushing her into the bed and forcing himself onto her despite the fact that they had a verbal agreement and a written contract that stated they wouldn’t ve having any sexual relations, and would only be having any skinship at all to keep pretenses (and he took it too far then too, so I guess it was a prelude for it). She openly asked him to wait and then when she did physically push him off before he actually raped her, she had to JUSTIFY HERSELF???? wtf. what the actual fuck. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the story first “foreshadow” it with this lame ass “plot” that because ML is a half demon his “instincts” are “hard to control” and he could “break what he loves most” if he ain’t careful. Are you for fucking real? Rape and sexual assault are not justifiable under any circumstances, but to diminish and strip all seriousness from it by banalizing the issue as well as trying to except all guilt/responsibility for his beyond disgusting actions from the character itself because of his nature??? Are we propagandizing far right beliefs through manhwas now so shamelessly? This is outrageous!

   Familia is a mistranslation. Its Familiar. The Japanese often use a long A sound to mimick an R at the end of a foreign word.

   So far so good, definitely recommend to read it.
   The plot is definitely good but ill be truthful and say im not a fan of the drawing style of the manga, so 4 stars for me right now.
