Otogi Moyou Ayanishiki

I loved this! One of my favorite stories :3

I've read this before since I love this artist's works, and I was definitely not disappointed. It's hilarious, heart-warming, and so innocently romantic. I shouldn't neglect to mention the action, either. I always love the female protagonists by this author. They're just very easy to root for.

 

Now I'm re-reading this series and omigosh, I realize all over again that little Suzu is one of the cutest things I've ever seen! >.< It's incredibly hard not to squeal at her. So. cute!

wait...
Dang I hate that.
Also
Otherwise, a fairly good read. worth the time.

Another great Hikawa Kyouko series, very different from her usual romances, but with a great story and very good characters. Really good and entertaining read.

what a very cute ending. Haha XD

I really liked this! The art isn't the best, so I was unsure at the beginning. But it turns out that the art very much reflects the story itself: simple, charming, and enjoyable. There's no messy love triangle here, no petty rivals or cliche'd miscommunications. Otogi Moyou Ayanishiki is about the battle of good and evil, portrayed in a way classic instead of trite. The storytelling is excellent, and I was drawn through the manga very naturally, on the edge of my seat the whole time. What I loved most was all the traditional Japanese mysticism. The mangaka said she loved Japanese history and myth, and I could really tell. Definitely worth the read!
