Wholesome.
If MAL didn't have a minimum word requirement, I would just leave it at that.
What you should expect if you read Nicola Traveling Around the Demon World:

I know I said it, but WHOLESOME. SO WHOLESOME
Feels like you're reading a children's story book
Adorable but still impactful characters
Episodic story, with an eventual underlying plot
Hungry girl just wanna eat
Wanting to cry but not really understanding why
... An art-style so thoughtful and attentive to detail that reading through chapters takes longer than it should because you actually look at everything other than the main characters and words
"I don't normally like stuff like this but $&1% good"

Plot:
Nicola traveling around the demon's world is a slice of life story about a young girl named Nicola whom decided to visit the demon world out of sheer curiosity. Upon meeting a Simon, a demon of the devil clan they embark on a journey filled with many unique experiences such as; exploring the demon world, meeting many different types of demons and unveiling mysteries.

Cast: Nicola and Simon are the main characters throughout the manga, however we are introduced to many unique characters as the story goes on. Each and every character have different interactions and relationship with Nicola and definitely add lot's of ... depth to the expanding demon world. Despite being "demons" the cast give off a cute and wholesome feel. You'll find yourself loving every character, no matter how much or little "screen time" [or should i say page time;) ] they get

Art: What can i say, it is absolutely stunning! My best explanation is that it gives off a raw and old-school vibe. The character designs are cute and the way the world is pictured is beautiful, despite being a demonic world.

Opinion: WHOLESOME. I am quite shocked to see how few people know of this manga and even fewer have read it! I don't use this term lightly but it's 100% a hidden gem. All i can say is sit or lie down in a comfortable position, put on some cute/relaxing/mischievous OST and enjoy the ride. You'll find yourself feeling nostalgic, calmed and in a great mood.

I couldn't stop smiling while reading this manga. I think it'd be fine for young children, but I am an adult and still enjoyed it a lot. Throughout the story, Nicola gets into mishaps, but nothing ever seems too dangerous for her. I wouldn't call it scary at all. It's funny, but also very charming.

The art style is so pretty, it's compared to a children's storybook and I have to agree. A lot of the characters have a style that is old-school in a way that is somewhat nonspecific in its inspiration. It's very cute, though I wonder if there's going to be a reason ... outside of style for this. Not that I'd be upset if the reasosn was just for style, lol.

All of the demons in this story are so nice it feels somewhat funny to call them demons. They're monsters, for sure, but like a Halloween children's book version of monsters where they're not evil and are actually nicer than humans in general. This is not at all a negative to me, I just find it somewhat funny.

Nicola is adorable as a protagonist. and Simon as her dad/guardian/whatever is really fun and sweet. The side characters are also fun, especially Nicola's demon friend Rosetta, and Simon's dad.

The series is coming to an end at the 4th book, which I understand. I'd love to see an infinite number of these stories, but I understand that it would likely get old for both author and reader after a while.

If you like stories that are sweet, super wholesome slice-of-life fantasy stories, I'd highly recommend this manga! I liked it a lot, and I hope others enjoy it too!

I'm relatively surprised not many people have read about this or talked about it. It's a really nice and wholesome story about a little girl who didn't like her old world, so she decided to visit the demon world. Although the premise is fairly generecic, I can't help but love the characters, art, the worldbuilding. The story from what I've read so far is definitely pretty basic, but it delivers it fairly well for the most part. I've been keeping this review pretty vague to avoid spoilers, but it deserves a read and doesn't get enough praise as it should. I can't really describe why ... I like the art so much; it just sort of clicks with me. The raw old-fashioned art style in a fantasy world works so well, and I enjoy the art in nearly every panel. This whole manga feels like it was made for me; it just sort of clicks, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes slice of life fantasy.

Such a cute and fluffy read :’3 , when I bought this off of Amazon I didn’t expect much from it. Guilty to say that as a manga collector when I find particularly any manga that has a cute cover and is in sale price I buy it not reading the summary. It’s a fun risk and sometimes I discover really good reads. As for this manga I loved it! It was really cute and fluffy, light- feel good read. 7 year old me would’ve loved it as well.
I enjoyed it!
The art style wa a totally fitting for the story.
