It is complicated.

The OCG was an asshole for creating a genocidal system like that. If (s)he couldn't think of a more humane system, (s)he shouldn't have created Humanity at all.

On the other hand, there isn't any way what the DL started won't end with the extinction of Humanity as a true species: If a country tolerates Mamonos, it becomes a Bright Green Demon Realm. If it becomes too efficient fighting Mamonos, the Demon Army invades and it becomes a Dark Demon Realm. If the DL is successful and rewrites the rules, women will eventually disappear and all men will become Incubi, reshaped to be Mamono's perfect mates... If the CG manages to somehow kill the DL and her daughters, the Mamonos will become bloodthirsty flesh-eating monsters again...

Kenkou Cross has created a setting in which a happy ending is guaranteed for every individual (well, at least for every male) if by "happy ending" we understand the classical "finding love and living happy together forever". Not even death is an issue: Incubi and Mamonos are protected from disease by DE, they are hard to kill, Mermaid's blood keep them young, and if they die, they can be brought back as Undead and resume their marriage... etc.

But, at the same time, if you look at the big picture, there is no way the setting as a whole will have a satisfactory ending. For me, a satisfactory ending would be one in which Mamonos and humans could both live without driving the other to extinction, but even if human women were to give birth to extra number of males and those excess men were to willingly marry Mamonos, the DE would eventually turn everything into Demon Realms...
