@RealityWarper - I know that's pretty much the core of the setting, and I know that's a sweet and good thing that mamono don't care what you look like, or what your life is like and they'll love you regardless. But you seem to have misunderstood me. I'm not talking about appearances or financial status. I'm talking about personality. If they don't care what the man's personality is like, then that's not a genuine loving relationship. It's extremely shallow no matter how you look at it.

Now, if they would only pounce upon men who's personalities and sexual interests are compatible with the mamono, as I've heard before, than there's nothing bad about it. Because then there is a guarantee they can both be happy. Heck it even says on the Holstaurus page "Once she's found a man she likes...", suggesting they only want as a husband a man who's personality they like and who's interests are compatible. And if they really care about the happiness of their husband, they'd only pick a husband who would pick them as well.

But again, the Ecology page suggest that they pounce upon the first man they see, not caring wether or not they are actually compatible. A loving relationship is more than just shallow sex. Though it does mention civilized mamono will try to court the man before jumping on him. And that they are not interested in the truly irredeemable criminals.

Besides, to me, there's not much point in introducing such a myriad of mamono, each catering to a specific fetish, if you have no choice in which one becomes your wife. I mean, sucks to be you if you are turned off by vore, but a Sandworm grabs you and swallows you like that. Or if you want a gentle and loving Holstaurus as a wife, but an agressive, brutal Ogre gets you first and beats you repeatedly. Or if you're a lolicon but a group of Orcs ambush you and make you their sex slave.

And I'd like to stress again: I don't hate the setting. I don't hate mamono, as their near-unconditional love is sweet. But most of the negative things I mention all come from the Monster Ecology page. Especially since it seems to generalize all mamono, not really caring that there are differences between species.
