Cleaned up the grammar for Ambiguously Gay, though given its got a TRS thread, this may not be an example. I posted the entry there for sake of reference.


* AmbiguouslyGay: Merii like Chiharu a ''lot''. She's extremely affectionate with the the human girl, often flirting with her and hugging her. When drunk she was very touchy with Isabella and later tried to make out with Chiharu. Chiharu doesn't seem to mind too much and her reactions can put her in this category as much as anything.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Fan translations are inconsistent with the name of the demon who works for C.A.T.T. He's initially introduced as "Jiku", which is how his name is literally presented. However, later it's shifted from Jiku to "Sieg". Translations from chapter 93 onward use "Zeke".

In fact, it's not until nearly chapter 100 that the subject of Gospel's father comes up in any form, when Eliza asks about Lorem's husband. Lorem hesitates to answer but eventually settles on assuring Eliza he's a good person.

** This is a potentially lethal problem for demon children. Especially if their powers are particularly strong. It's unfortunately common for a young demon to harm themselves or their families because they can't control their powers. Lorem met Fuuga after he had frozen himself with his ice powers and thawed him out. As for Lorem herself, a recurring flashback scene shows Merii huddled over a charred and blackened Lorem, suggesting it's very likely that Lorem would never have survived to adulthood had Merii not been around.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Demons are generally inclined toward direct action than subtlety. As a consequence, many are inclined to use brute force to keep others in line. This is especially true of the hard-liners resistant to reconciling with humanity among the Self-Administrated Zone. This works out for the protagonists when they get into a fight with hard-liners, as they ''immediately'' back down when [[spoiler:Lorem fully demonifies in front of them]] and fully cooperate with the group's desire to negotiate.


Added DiffLines:

* MassOhCrap: When the trip into the Self-Administrated Zone turns into a fight, everyone but Merii freaks out when [[spoiler:Lorem demonifies]]. For some, like Valentine and Isabella, it's because they didn't realize [[spoiler:just how strong Lorem was]], while others, like Garon and Isabella's father Ramon, know ''exactly'' [[spoiler:how strong Lorem is]].

** Valentine has a similar issue, but unlike Chiharu she can ''do'' something about it. When she and Chiharu hang out with some of the other lady demons, both are noticeably upset at the bust sizes of their companions. Chiharu ends up seeing Valentine use her shapeshifting to enlarge her chest on the spot.

* ACupAngst:
** Chiharu tends to look on in dismay whenever some issue brings Lorem and/or Merii's large chests to the forefront. An early example is when she gets a baby carrier for Lorem to use with Gospel. Lorem can't use it with Gospel in front of her because her chest smothers him and the straps don't extend far enough to help.

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Valentine, who has spent years training her singing voice in the hope that her songs can help bring true peace between humans and demons, is utterly horrified when she discovers that her voice has the hidden power to force demons to demonify, which could very easily spread the image of demons as out-of-control monsters instead. She begs Merii to remove her vocal cords so that she can never cause harm like that again. Fortunately this is subverted in the end: Merii was able to identify the organ that was the true cause of the effect, and removed that instead.]]

Added DiffLines:

* ParentsAsPeople: As much as Lorem loves her son, it's blatantly clear from the start that motherhood doesn't come naturally to her. She's careless, socially awkward, clumsy, naive, and short-sighted. Because of this, she needs a great deal of help from Merii and Chiharu to properly care for him.

Initially she can even transform into inanimate objects, but after [[spoiler:Merii fixes her voice]] she says that the power has grown weaker. Even then she can still assume the form of any person, human or demon, that she wants.

* IJustShotMarvinInTheFace: In chapter 12, while going through some old things of hers, Lorem finds an object she can't immediately identify. She remembers it's an Anti-Demon Bomb, set to explode as soon as a demon touches it, just in time to throw it out the window where it detonates harmlessly. Just as she's wondering what in the hell she had been thinking keeping that around, Lorem turns around to see Gospel touching a ''second'' bomb she had. This one Lorem ''isn't'' able to throw out in time, so it doesn't detonate harmlessly, and Lorem is forced to seriously injure herself getting between the bomb and Gospel. Once she's healed, the incident serves as a wake-up call for Lorem, as she realizes her carelessness nearly got her baby killed.

* FantasticArousal: Demons' tails are very sensitive to touch. An omake page describes Lorem's as making her weak-kneed when touched. This is problematic for Lorem, in particular, as Gospel likes to chew on her tail despite her efforts to teach him not to. When she lets Gospel do it to calm him down, Merii notices Lorem is drooling biting her lip to keep from crying out.

She is also a famously powerful demon whose very ''breath'' is so hot it makes at least one other demon see her life flash before her eyes and she, along with several certified badasses, back down ''immediately'' when they realize just who they're up against.

There is some variation to this, as Lizette's wings are on her head, and some, like Helga and Fuuga, don't have wings at all. Also nearly all demons possess the ability to demonify into a "battle mode", which makes them appear more monstrous than cute.

* PowerUpgradingDeformation: Demons have the ability to "demonize" or "demonify", which transforms parts of their body and increases their power. The process varies slightly from demon to demon, but generally involves arms and legs becoming much more scaly and reptilian-looking in nature. One way to gauge a demon's power is by how much of their body they can demonize at once. Lorem is able to change her entire body.

She healed Lorem multiple times over their childhood when Lorem's PowerIncontinence caused her to hurt herself and saved Chiharu from a demon sickness that humans have otherwise never survive.

* HorrorHunger: When child vampire Lizette has blood to drink, she is as much a CheerfulChild as one could expect from an eight year-old girl. When she ''doesn't'' have blood to drink, she can become mad from the starvation to the point of turning downright feral. She might well have been put down by humans before she turned six had Minami not realized this and made sure she could be provided with blood to drink. When Lizette accidentally runs out of blood packs, she finds Chiaru's scent almost irresistible and has to keep herself from attacking Chiharu. That chapter ends with Lizette going to pick up her blood rather than wait for it to be delivered and swearing to never run out like that again.

Lorem is a demon. One who, in her heyday, was famous for the havoc she'd wreak among demon and human alike. Lorem is also a mother, one who has given up her days of delinquency and dedicated herself to making sure her baby boy, Gospel, grows up happy and healthy. Helping her in this are her younger sister Merii and Chiharu, a human girl who helped Lorem when she gave birth to Gospel.

From that basis comes the story of ''Musuko ga Kawaikute Shikataganai Mazoku no Hahaoya'' by Juugoya, an UrbanFantasy SliceOfLife in which Lorem raises her little boy in a world where the conflicts between human and demon have only just recently ended.

!! ''Musuko ga Kawaikute Shikataganai Mazoku no Hahaoya'' provides examples of:

* AdultFear: Lorem may be a demon, but her biggest worries are frequently in relation to her ability to care for Gospel. Whether it's fear he will hate her after her carelessness nearly gets him seriously hurt, worry that her checkered past will cause Gospel problems in the future, or concern that Gospel's development might be behind other kids when they meet another baby who can say her own name when Gospel can't.

That chapter ends with Lizette going to pick up her blood rather than wait for it to be delivered and swearing to never run out like that again.
* AnIcePerson: Fuuga can generate cold and ice. He met Lorem after his powers went out of control as a child and he froze himself. Lorem thawed him out. It is for this reason that he seeks out Lorem after learning she has a child, so he might do for Gospel what Lorem did for him.
* TheMedic: Merii's tentacles can be used to generate stem cells, which enable her to heal people from darn near anything. She healed Lorem multiple times over their childhood when Lorem's PowerIncontinence caused her to hurt herself and saved Chiharu from a demon sickness that humans have otherwise never survive. She has managed to market this skill and make herself considerably wealthy.
* TheNicknamer: Merii gives nicknames to just about everyone she meets except Lorem, who is simply "Onee-chan"/"Sis". Chiharu is "Chi-chan", Gospel is "Go-kun". She's usually quick about it but some, like Sera, are hard for her to do without making an even more complicated name. She's also dismayed that nobody but her ever uses her nicknames, and elated when Gospel, upon expanding his vocabulary, calls Chiharu "Chi-chan".
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Lizette sustains herself from human blood and can not handle even the slightest exposure to sunlight without being burnt. However, while Minami describes Lizette as a vampire, she is not undead, but is rather a specific breed of demon.
* PlayingWithFire: Lorem's and Gospel's power. Gospel is still too young to generate his own heat yet, but like Lorem can tolerate high temperatures without problems. As for Lorem, when fully demonized her breath ''alone'' is enough to make other demons see their lives flash before their eyes.
* PowerIncontinence:
** A common problem for demons. Even in adulthood they occasionally have issues with demonizing while asleep. An early chapter shows Lorem accidentally destroy Gospel's stuffed doggy toy with her claw because of this, while Merii has wrapped herself up in her own tentacles more than once.
