Finding a modern fantasy manga that has nothing to do with light novels is hard enough. Finding one of those that's a comedy is rarer still. But does its rarity translate into quality?
SLEEPY PRINCESS IN THE DEMON CASTLE (Maojo de Oyasumi), by Kagiji Kumanomata. First published in 2016 and first published in English in 2018.
PLOT:
Long ago in a kingdom far away, humanity and demon kind once lived in peace. Then the demon king stole the human princess Syalis and trapped her in his castle.

Her quest for the perfect night's rest causes her to create all sorts of chaos in the castle, and it threatens to undermine all their efforts.
