Make the exorcist fall in love is an amazing manga that show a lot of issues with society and make the audience think a lot about the story. Priest mc is a young man whos been taught by the church from a young age and tortured and forced to become an exorcist who can match satan. The church saw his power and thought that if they could control it then theyd be able to use him to defeat satan. Satan knows of the boys power very early on so he had imuri FL seduce the boy. Theres a lot of things to be said about this manga and I believe that a lot of this manga is very grey. No character is an NPC that doesnt think for themself and very early on the manga depicts signs of abuse problems with incels and toxic masculinity through one of the enemies one of the 7 deadly sins/demon lords The romance is very good but this manga I believe while it has some romance the manga is more drama/action first then romance 2nd as it shows a lot of problems with the way priestkun has been brought up. Keep in mind that in the main storyline Priestkun is only 16/17 even though he might look younger. This means that a lot of the things that the church has done to the priest is morally grey at best and if you look at the earliest signs which is from chapter 1 its horrible what theyve done to priest Now add to that the fact that hes burdened with the responsibility of being the strongest exorcist while all of the adults around him are ignorant or care not for his wellbeing and you get a fucked up teenager. Imuri is a good pair for him considering that theyre both pretty much the same age if not imuri being a little older. I do not want to spoil the manga a lot more but it is very easy to sympathize with the ML and some of the enemies struggles. You can kind of see why they turned out the way they did except for some people. Now would I recommend this if you are religious? Yes. If youre not religious id still recommend it due to how good the storytelling and worldbuilding is. Simply put the mc was brainwashed when he was younger to become a servant of the church to defeat demon lords and satan. The enemies of this manga also arent completely terrible as youre sometimes shown their side of the story that doesnt mean theyre not evil it just means you know a bit of where theyre coming from which makes the story and the characters more fleshed out and makes you understand why they become the way they are. Priestkun is also too young to be dealing with all of this BS i swear to god Also You know how the MC isnt named at all? Hes literally just called father or priest. It has to be one of the most anticipated moment of the series. The fact that this manga doesnt give the main character a name and instead leaves it out for later is very telling. He has to be someone relevant to the bible or the ars goetia considering how strong he is. Would recommend 10/10 if you love any of: romancephilosophyreligionactiondrama Would not recommend if youre not into: thinking
