Synopsis
On a futuristic artificial island, Shu Ogata runs a private military company that fights demons, which sounds like a solid gig, but he's perpetually broke because he can't manage money to save his life. His saving grace, and biggest complication, is Kisara, a demon girl who helps him fight supernatural threats and also aggressively handles his household chores like a possessive roommate. The catch? Kisara powers up by kissing Shu and literally consuming his memories. Every time they need more firepower, he loses a piece of his past. That's a genuinely interesting trade-off that gives the romance actual weight instead of just being window dressing. Then there's Ayano, Shu's ex-girlfriend who still works in the same demon-hunting industry and clearly isn't over him, which creates the kind of messy love triangle where nobody is fully wrong but everyone is making questionable decisions. A-1 Pictures handles the animation, so the action sequences look sharp and the character designs pop. Across 13 episodes, the show balances demon-slaying set pieces with relationship drama that actually moves forward rather than spinning its wheels. If you liked the supernatural harem dynamics of Date A Live or the romantic tension in Saekano but want something with a darker edge to its central romance mechanic, this hits a nice middle ground. The memory-eating kiss concept alone makes it worth the time: it turns every power-up into a genuine sacrifice.

Shu is sooo sweet with Kisara after what happened. Their relationship feels so different now, and it shows how deeply Shu cares for Kisara more than just using her as a tool. On another note, Kanna is SUCH a brat LOLLL it's satisfying watching the final battle 😂 There were a couple of really cool moments that tie into past episodes that make it all the more cinematic.
This episode is a bit more relaxed as the team plans their next move. I enjoy seeing more of Shu and Kisara's past together, and what happened at the end between them was really bittersweet.
The tension is building so much towards the final battle now! I'm so curious to see what this will be like. The preview we've gotten so far is already intense, and I was surprised at the cliffhanger at the end!
BRO THE CRYING HOURS 😭😭😭 This episode is soooooooo sad and tragic. The flashback of the backstory tied in literally perfectly with the current events. Sometimes flashbacks can get boring, but this felt so emotional and crucial to the overall plot. I love how deep it's gotten, instead of just revealing it's one person behind all of this, there's so much more going on to be uncovered.
The team works more and more towards finding out who's controlling the demons of the city and learning about Shu's past, and it feels like we might finally get some answers into that side of the plot soon. Also the plot twist of Mikhail was crazy lol what the heck! And then the mic drop at the end was insaneeee. I couldn't wait to see how this played out and immediately went to the next episode.
More of Shu's love life is revealed and it's crazyyy lol. The highlight of this episode though was really the fight between 2 important characters. Things were getting pretty risky, and Kisara shows a different side of herself. But I reallyyy wish Kisara would help remind Shu of his past memories, instead of trying to keep them from him.
I really enjoyed the introduction of Sharon! PLUS the ending had such an unexpected twist!!! The backstory of her, Shu, and Kisara is super cool to watch play out, and with it leaving off on a bit of a cliffhanger I had to go to the next episode immediately.
This episode had SUCH a sweet and intimate moment 😭 The romance is treated so tastefully in this show, no one is overly embarrassed or immature. It's refreshing to watch an anime with adults feeling love for each other naturally. Kisara starts acting a little more obsessed and controlling here which gets a little annoying though lol
The interactions with Mikhail are always funny lol, I keep wondering what his purpose is going to be in this show. There was a nice mix of humor, deep conversations, and intense action at the end. Side note, the music in this series is very beautiful!!
This episode was a little bit slower and more dialogue-heavy in the first half. But, I absolutely love watching Shu and Kisara team up in battles and how action-packed it becomes!
The way they go about showing the fights against demons is entertaining and intriguing! A lot of other shows have sooo many meaningless filler battles, but each one so far seems to have importance to the plot and what's going on. The humor in this show has also been super fun too!
Honestly, the final episode was a littleee underwhelming? It was a fine, happy ending, but I guess there were a couple of things I would've liked to see more of. But, the ending with Shu and Kisara had me freaking cause I thought they were going to show a whole spicy scene oml 😭 It was fun to see the added humor end out the show.
The premise of this show is very interesting and unique, I love that it's different from a lot of other anime concepts out there! The characters are all very likeable so far. And they live up to the title of the show when it comes to kissing alright LOL, has me blushing over here 🤭
They made an ending that is fit for this anime. It wouldn't end without Ayano and Kisara fighting over Shu, now with the addition of Kanna. I'll miss Sharon though. Overall, the first few episodes have slow pacing and worldbuilding but it does pick up by the end.
The intensity of the story is at its peak right here! I love that Sharon and Ayano somehow had a truce and even helped Shu. Also, seeing the siblings together is quite emotional.
It’s kind of a slowing down episode but still packed with information. Shu's is fully revealed and the plot twist in the end is making this episode emotional. It's so bittersweet to see that happening.
Revelations after revelations, it's just mindblowing! The scenes in the mine made me forget to breathe. Also, that last part is such a cliffhanger.
This is one of the best episodes in the series. It's a really good mix of action and emotional scenes. The storyline's pacing is nice and the plot twist is just mind-blowing.
Okay this episode is plot twist after plot twist. The intensity is going up each episode and storyline gets exciting because of it. The last plot twist got me reeling! Also, Mikhail is keeping it funny to not make the episode super serious which is refreshing.
Sharon is such a badass nun lmao. The story gets more exciting with what Sharon revealed in the end. It seems like something intense will show up.
