Plot summary

Make the Exorcist Fall in Love centers around an initially unnamed priest (referred to simply as Mr. Priest by various characters), who from birth has been trained and abused by the Catholic church to defeat demons, to the point that he followed the Bible literally and did cast his eye out while fighting the demon of lust. Advised by his mentor that he is too self-sacrificial, the Church receives a message from Satan stating that he intends for the creator of "The Gallery of Evil" to visit him in Gehenna. "The Gallery of Evil" turns out to be an art exhibition featuring demons falling in love, and is tasked by the church to protect Imuri Atsuki, the artist, from Satan's minions. Imuri is kind and loving towards the priest, but this is because Imuri holds a secret, she herself is a succubus sent by Satan himself to fool the young priest into falling in her love with her, but that goal holds more challenges than it seems.
