Canon
Denji and Makima first meet after Denji slaughters a mass group of devils. As he's in his hybrid form, Makima approaches to Denji and realizes he doesn't smell like a devil nor human. Denji begins to lose control and tells Makima to hold him, she listens and holds onto Denji, accomplishing his dream of hugging a girl. After the hug he breaks free from his hybrid form, turning back into human. She holds onto Denji as he's exhausted, she tells him that she came in order to kill the Zombie Devil, as well that she's a Public Safety Devil Hunter.

Makima gives Denji two choices, either to be killed as a Devil or he'll be kept as a human however he must act like her pet, also that she'll provide him food. Denji questions about the food and Makima continues telling him about the food she'll provide for him. They both enter a car and Denji begins to starve, Makima notices how they haven't had breakfast and offers to take Denji to eat. Denji tells Makima that he doesn't have any money however she tells him she'll pay for the food and he can eat what ever he wanted. Makima then gives Denji her coat as he happened to be shirtless. After Denji realizes that he is in love with Makima.

The two then go eat until a man comes into the restaurant begging for help as his daughter was taken into the woods by a devil, Makima's food was already prepared and asked Denji what was his name. She tells Denji that she didn't want her food to go bad and tells him to go kill the devil by himself. Denji tells Makima that he wanted to eat as well until she reminds Denji that he is her pet. As well that he should only respond with the words "yes" or "woof", and that he isn't allowed to say no towards her. Confused, Denji asks what she meant by that, she tells Denji that she'll put him to "sleep" or in other words kill him. Denji then goes into the forest to kill the Devil.

After touching Power's breasts Denji goes into a state of confusion, later he can be seen with Makima as she teaches Denji how to properly do paper work. However, Makima notices Denji's strange behavior and asks him what was bothering him. Denji explains to Makima about the experience he had about touching Power's breasts, Makima responds by telling Denji that touching someone you know better will make him have a better experience. As the two are close together, Makima takes Denji's hands and placing them from her ear, mouth, and then Breast. Denji becomes flustered and then falls back.

Fanon
The ship itself is seen somewhat highly controversial amongst fans due to their age gap. There isn't as much fan written works or artworks with the two in a romantic scenario with the exception of Denji being submissive to Makima.
