Mistress Kanan Is Devilishly Easy (カナン様はあくまでチョロい, Kanan-sama wa Akumade Choroi) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Nonco. It began serialization in Kodansha's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Magazine in June 2022. An anime television series adaptation produced by Studio Kai premiered in April 2026.

Plot

The chair of the discipline committee at Tama Municipal Votive Academy, popular and athletic female student Kanan Takakiyo, is actually a demon coming from the demon world to devour human souls. One day, Kanan targets and summons a junior student, Yōji Kyōgi, but Yōji falls in love with her and, after much pushing around, they end up going out together. Kanan, who is new to romance, is charmed by the assertive Yōji, and is drawn to him. Kanan and Yōji are also joined by Ami, Kanan's maid, and Jeanne, a clumsy apostle of God from the heavenly realm.
