: Arc plots where the demon insists on attending parent-teacher conferences or packing overly extravagant lunches for the protagonist, obliterating any chance of them keeping a low profile.
And just like that, an awkward, supernatural relationship is born. The series uses this to mine comedy and tension—like scenes of Eririn appearing under Takashi's desk during study time to "help him focus," being morally torn between her duty as a succubus and her role as a mother figure.
