This is one of the better isekais. Art is extraordinary, facial expression meme farm. Story is engaging. World building is sensible. English chapters published here is about a dozen chapters behind (can't be helped, big business runs the west after all, their control is tyrannical).
The anime based on this is, however, absolutely trash.

Don't worry, the very fast official english will release the rest of the volume by the end of 2023!

Personally, will never buy any "official" western translations. Not only the companies have demonstrated many times they have zero respect or integrity. Some of my friends, no offense to them, also work as translators for them and I know their level of Japanese is not adequate.

Don't worry, sometimes some random group that's literally worse that MTL will pick up one of those series. But if not, you will have to read a volume per like year (sometimes two) and enjoy it!
And seven seas is fine, if you ignore the fact that they love to spend 2 years translating a single volume.

Tbf, if it doesn't get censored like uncomfortable number of translated novels nowadays, I would rather wait a decade than support censorship.

Oh you would probably have to wait some more, seven seas does this fun thing where they censor and then uncensor after a while.

So, "Valentine" is sympathizing with demons... trying not to kill them... but is fine with mass-murdering lesser demons.
Maybe there is a distinction between demons and lesser demons, but I'd like that to be made clear otherwise it feels contradictory.
