Oni no Hanayome wa Taberaretai

When Mashiro was just a young girl, her life was unexpectedly spared by the intervention of Shuten-doji, a powerful youkai. That fateful encounter left an indelible mark on her, shaping her understanding of the supernatural world and binding her fate to the fearsome entity who showed her mercy. Growing up with the memory of his salvation, she harbored a deep sense of gratitude and an unwavering resolve to repay her debt to the otherworldly being who protected her. Upon reaching her seventeenth birthday, Mashiro makes a startling decision: she willingly offers herself as a sacrifice, presenting herself to become Shuten-doji’s bride. She fully expects to be consumed, believing that surrendering her life is the ultimate way to honor the creature who once saved her. However, her grim expectations are met with an unexpected complication. Over the years, Shuten-doji has developed genuine romantic feelings for the human girl he rescued. Rather than viewing her as a meal or a mere offering, the formidable youkai finds himself entirely unwilling to harm her. Now, Mashiro must navigate a bewildering marriage where her husband desperately wants to cherish her rather than devour her, turning what was meant to be a tragic sacrifice into an unconventional romance.
