It's interesting, the idea that the Demons are intelligent enough for some of them to recognize that there is the possibility of mutually beneficial coexistence. but can't wrap their heads around the idea that "If you stop killing humans, humans will stop killing you." because they're so hard-wired to deceive and kill humans. It's not just a culture clash, but a biological one.
It'd be interesting if one of these genuinely trying to change demons does so, maybe by magically becoming a human or elf for real, and immediately comes to the conclusion that Demonkind needs to be exterminated, (possibly converted, but that has it's own issues that would be interesting to tackle.) ((Of course, I'm speaking as someone who has yet to watch the manga or anime, so it's just an idea based on an idea.))
It really wouldnt be interesting. Too many stories have done the whole demons suddenly realising the errors if their ways after some major change. The simple evil of frierens demons are their draw
there's another scene with macht and another demon (forget her name) that speculates (semi?) parallel evolution of elves/humans and demons, using orcas and sharks as an example. similar in appearance, but with fundamentally different underlying structure.
