Just spent the last hour or so catching up with this, and I'm still not sure what I think.
It's a fan-servicey gag manga about a fallen angel boke who sort of alternates between quoting scripture and being innocently provocative and charmingly ignorant, the long suffering high school student tsukkomi who's been roped into taking care of her, and assorted friends, classmates and neighbors.
It's... not quite like anything else.
I was just flipping through and the art for the angel reminds me a bit of Carol from Tomo-chan, but crossed with Yuuna from Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san. I mean, Yuuna is a ghost, so it isn't that far a stretch to go from ghost to angel.
Sometimes these romcoms take a long time to find a groove. And then sometimes they never do and just spin their wheels with manufactured contrivances until they fade away into obscurity. Might be too early to tell with this one.
I would guess that if there's a romantic winner, it'll be Mei, since Mimiel technically isn't even human, and has bigger goals. And neither girl can lose - they're too sympathetic - so the only way I see it ending with a romantic resolution is if one of them willingly cedes to the other, which would work out with Mimiel, since that would be her understanding not just her love for Ren, but her love for Mei.
Mostly though, I'd expect it to spin its wheels and keep the focus on gags and fanservice. And I'm okay with that - they're both quite well done.
