New Romantic Comedy Manga 'Ah, Demon-chan' Launches on Shonen Jump+

From the beloved names of the manga world, Fukatsu Zaou made a explosive entrance for romantic comedy fans with his new series “Ah, Demon-chan” (Japanese: あっ、悪魔ちゃん). The series was released as a single chapter on the Shonen Jump+ platform on June 6, 2024.
The story revolves around Miyu, a very introverted high school girl living in the countryside. When Miyu learns that her secret crush's family will move from the city to the countryside, she finds a solution by completely transforming herself. Unexpectedly turning into a 'demon' guise, Miyu tries to keep her loved one in the countryside while creating funny and sweet events in the process.
Fukatsu Zaou is known for works like “Harem Camp” and is particularly recognized for his mastery in the light erotic comedy genre. “Ah, Demon-chan,” however, targets a more innocent and younger audience. According to Natalie's report, the series deals with a typical 'shy girl makes a dramatic transformation' theme while also depicting countryside life and youthful love in an entertaining language.
Shonen Jump+ is a digital manga platform that hosts major titles like “Spy x Family” and “Chainsaw Man”. In recent years, the platform has opened doors to new talents and fresh stories. It is not yet clear whether “Ah, Demon-chan” will be published weekly or at irregular intervals as part of this strategy, but the positive reception of the first chapter suggests the series could be long-running.
If you want to watch a sweet romantic comedy and the courageous transformation of a shy heroine, 'Ah, Demon-chan' should definitely be on your radar. We will all see how Miyu's plan turns out in future chapters and how the boy she loves reacts to this 'demon' form.
