"By", "because". Sorry, English is not my native language. What I was trying to say is, taking my commentary in the Rakuen image as example, is that sometimes the lores of these monster girls are pretty messed up and "impractical" for real life. Not saying that is stupid, just contrasting the comment of cd_young and the reality of this series: a bunch of hypersexualized monster girls.

Well on the note of how the monsters function in regular life, it can be useful to read up on the setting's various books (the three World Guides for instance). They show the monsters being more complex than the profiles sometimes indicate.

Jesus christ, the justification for making these things sex maniacs who need to fuck men is really pathetic. Not to mention the fact it's insanely addictive and is 1:1 for the wish is just sad, oh and the genie can lie to their master to have more sex. Kenkoku is really losing what touch he had, if he even had one.

How is it a pathetic justification? Power has always had some kind of price to it in the MGE, and the greater the power the more you have to work for it. And accumulating power has always been most easily achieved via sex thanks to how monster mana works in the setting.

Also they don't need to do it to live, they can get mana in other ways, sex is just the best/most efficient way.

And honestly, you do realize that the genies of mythology were not exactly servile. Jinn were routinely depicted as unpredictable or even dangerous. KC's genie having a mean side is actually pretty fitting.

Eh, it's nothing new. There's a lot of monsters that just going from being a brutal and ferocious beast from a passive and lovely wife or monsters doomed to die for their own lust

Doomed to die for their own lust? What are you talking about?

Also, I don't see how the comparison to the relatively few monster species that get more subdued when married (for every one that does I can name one that doesn't) has anything to do with the genies. They behave pretty much the same when married, aside from being perhaps even more scheming than before.
