Well it's nice that none of these clearly murderous villains got let go but I really feel like I've come like halfway into a series. At the end when she reveals its a classmate I was like but we've never seen that so how is that a twist?

This series is a rom com though? From the LN tags/reviews though I don't think this is gonna get better.

Because the adaptation start partway in the source material.

Also, nitpicking since I doubt this little details will matter for the manga, but she identify herself as demon (race) here.
Her title Devil Princess is basically an epithet for her.

Demon rankings go from Lesser Demon, Greater Demon, Archdemon then into the top that can be split into 3 groups:

Demon Lords (written as demon dukes) - The most numerous of them.

Beast - previously only for mr. blackie over there, until a little golden cat joins him.

Devil - Mephistopheles...yes, THE Devil.

Her Devil Princess is written similar to Demon Lords, and given her other titles it makes her a being that cover all 3 special titles for demons.

Ah that explains alot, well nothing like skipping all the character growth and making readers completely lost assuming it doesn't do the going back in time thing within the next few chapters and we start at the start start.

It's...a bit hard to explain without going into spoilers, but let's just say as someone who's read the WN I think it's fine for them to start at THIS incident and goes from there (whether forward or backward)

If you're ok with getting a lot of spoilers dumped on you then feel free to ask/PM me.

We'll see how it plays out, I may take you up on that if it seems they will skip the intro stuff.

So they are removing not only the first part but also the third part since Yuru didn't throw him into a dimension hole like in the novel

Sometimes authors tweak the story upon offical release. Kinda hard to say how they will do it

Shit, you're right, it's been edited. Going to get into the raws and verify which word they use for Devil.

It's in part 2, but quick run down

低級悪魔 Low Demon - the lowest of the low with practically no intelligence, even eaten by other demons as snacks.

下級悪魔 Lesser Demon - the 'common folk' of demons

上級悪魔 Greater Demon - the elite-but-still-nameless tier

大悪魔 Archdemon - the level powerful enough to be boss fight where full party of 'heroes' would be needed to handle them

And the top:
悪魔公 Demon Lord

魔獣 Beast

魔神 (evil god) Devil

Ya I found it. Thanks. Also, how do you spoiler tag in these forums >.>
When your writing your reply or post on the top row it'll be the second set of triple dots and click the crossed out eye. Or the BBcode here [/SPOILER] [/SPOILER] removing the first / on the first spoiler and write your message inbetween it.

Wait is it fine for him to die here…?
After thinking about it, I don't think it matter.

He can get a 'we'll reincarnate you over there looking like before you got killed' or a last second summon from the grasp of death by zombies, the end result will still be him being in that other world nonetheless.

And in some way this make a lot more sense from both Yuzu being less personally sadistic (she can get brutal but doesn't really do torture) and him surviving by means other than literally being able to hold his breath inside the fucking void between worlds long enough to get to another world

As someone who didn't read the novel or whatever, it seemed fine to me. Lmao. It didn't feel like I was dropped into the middle. It's legit just a girl awakening to the reason why she's been feeling off about everything. I like it.
