It wasn’t great but it’s not bad either. Just sort of lost interest

This was good. At least what is written is good. This was clearly supposed to be longer and then the author and the illustrator never came back. Even season 2 ends with them writing out, "See you next week." And that was a year ago.

But what was here is good. Especially season one. Very interesting and unique take the devil walking around among us. Was captivated with the temptation and manipulation throughout all of season 1. Season 2 is good, but definitely wasn't expecting the sudden change in direction. But it all started coming together and just when I started to enjoy it the comic ended.....

The art was absolutely amazing. Beautiful from beginning to end with an almost seductive style that is very fitting for the story told here. I especially loved that when we got character perspective changes the art changed with it to match the new character. Really good stuff there!

Overall this was good. A little overly confusing sometimes, but still good. And would probably be even better if the story ever got finished. I will update my review if more is added that I can comment on.

This is fun, interesting, and funny! 

Season 1 is the same story as the short story “Clara and the Devil” from Olivie’s anthology “The Lovers Grim” except the short story has a little bit more in it (mostly stuff that I’m assuming might not fit into Webtoon’s guidelines hahah), but it was so cool to have art to that story and to see that story built upon!!! If you want some more of your favorite characters from season 1 definitely recommend checking out the whole story too! 

THE ARTWORK IS TO DIE FOR!!! Like it’s SO good and just stunning!!! 

I have so many questions about what is left in season 2 though (plus however many seasons it goes for), and I can’t wait to see what happens when they come back to it!!!

No sense of direction, feeling too aimless. The abstract talking is a bore. Clara resembles Libby too much in my mind and Devil looks like Nico.
