This is a story about an elf made to be a sacrifice to a monster due to her debt left behind by her father. The monster spat her out and refused to eat her since she tasted disgusting. The comedy ensues as the elf, feeling like her pride is somewhat damaged, tries to make herself taste better using various methods to no avail. As such, this isn't a story about an elf that doesn't want to be eaten and a monster that eats people, but rather an elf that is trying to get herself eaten and a monster that seriously doesn't want to eat her (Because she tastes awful). We see that the monster is very much like a Shut-In, playing games etc and the elf is just bothering him with her frequent visits. But the monster put up with her, and at some point the reader would think "Aren't they good buddies at this point?". Apart from their comedic interactions we only see the villagers (Who are Acorns. Living, breathing, talking acorns) and a few other characters. It's a rather unique story that you can lose yourself in for a good laugh.

tl;dr: A manga that has decent comedy and starts some interesting world building but ends before doing much with it. 

The original premise was pretty interesting with someone actually trying to be eaten, and serves as a really good hook. The hook relies solely on its comedic value and only a very narrow range of that, with it not really having potential beyond that. Hence, as the manga went on it did some world building that was actually surprisingly good though pretty much completely unrelated to the original premise. The ending tried to tie everything together in a pretty rushed format, wherein it felt like there was a lot more that could have been done with the world that the author built that just wasn’t, but all in all I suppose it was satisfying enough. The characters were interesting enough, though there wasn’t really any character development or anything like that. There was relationship development, but it wasn’t that strong. The comedy was pretty solid all the way through, but beyond the beginning only rarely was it really great. The art was really good all the way through though.
