The First Volume of the Love V! Manga Has Been Released: A Story of a Horned Demon and a Fetishist Teacher
A new addition has arrived in the world of manga that blends fantasy and comedy. The first volume of the highly anticipated Love V! (らぶぶいっ！) manga, written by artist Merumo, hit shelves on June 26, 2026, under the Kadokawa Comics Ace label, part of KADOKAWA. From its very first day of publication, the series managed to attract attention with both its premise and the support of a popular figure.
At the center of the story is Sakura Sei, a high school teacher who projects a very serious and stern image to the outside world. However, Sakura Sei has a secret passion she cannot tell anyone: an extreme interest in "special limbs" such as horns, tails, and the like. While trying to suppress this fetish, things spiral completely out of control when she encounters a demon girl named Makimura Bell, who has real horns. This "forbidden" and humorous relationship between the two forms the core dynamic of the series.
Promotional efforts for the first volume of the manga feature the support of the famous VTuber Suō Patora, who is known for her ASMR content and also has a demon theme herself. Suō Patora recommended the manga to her fans with a testimonial text featured on the book's obi strip. This collaboration created great excitement, especially among audiences who enjoy fetish-themed comedy and cute character designs. The series continues to be published regularly on the Young Ace Up digital platform.
Love V! successfully blends the "monster girl" and daily life comedy trends popular in the modern manga industry. Author Merumo has combined the cute drawing style seen in her previous works with a slightly bolder and more humorous tone this time. If you enjoy unconventional character interactions and light, suggestive comedy elements, you should definitely check out this strange adventure of Sakura Sei and Makimura Bell. The extent to which this secret passion will grow in future chapters is already a subject of curiosity.
