Description: Legend says that fated lovers are bound together by an invisible red thread. Most people think it’s superstition, but seventeen-year-old Chiyako knows better — she can see them! Yearning to be an independent adult, she’s struggling to earn enough money to move out of her parents’ house. Her path is clear, until a chance encounter with a mysterious group of hot guys known as the Tyers shows her that she has the power to pull all of fate’s strings…though doing so binds her into the form of a child!

As Chiko struggles to cope with the demands of commanding an artefact of cosiderable power, it becomes clear that the influential family at the centre of it all have many secrets of their own. Just what has she gotten involved with? What happened all those years ago to cause the current tensions? And most importantly, will she ever be fated to be with Akeo?

I'm so happy to see that this series got picked up after Go! Comi went under. I bought the first 3 books that were released over here and was disappointed when I thought I wouldn't be able to finish reading the story. Thanks so much for doing this, Transcendence Scans.

Woah...i had the second ending from the Akatsuki no Yona anime start at around page 39....that was just perfect. 

Glad to see this is still being scanlated. Especially since it feels like it is so close to the ending.

Not true. Shoujo manga heroines' best friends are not bitchy (unless they also have a crush on the heroine's love interest).

 

As for why the other women are bitchy. Of course it's to keep things interesting.

 

A story with a protagonist but without an antagonist is just a mediocre romance manga. Add in an antagonist and it upgrades to a good romance manga. Then add in a good story with good relationship plots and it becomes an awesome romance manga.

 

Duh.

Um I can think of manga's where a lot of the females are actually good at heart. One in particular is "Say I love you" most of the females start rough around the edges at first but end up actually being close friends with the female lead. Admitedly a well done romance manga can only shine when there is a good antagonist. It's better though if the antagonist isn't cliche though and has only negative qualities because then it makes the situation seem stupid

why are women all bitches in shoujo mangas like these except for the heroine? it's a really cheap way to make readers support the mc, not to mention hella sexist.

...It updated! O V O

Transcendence scans's still translating this. Chapter 18 is out on their reader :)

By the way, you can see lots of the chapter opener artworks in colour on Mick Takeuchi's blog gallery:

Just thought that was worth sharing because they are quite lovely to look at :)
But what if the series is no longer licensed? Go Comi shut down in 2010, so they're not going to produce any more Bound Beauty (Shibariya Komachi in English), it seems. Has anyone asked Aerandria if their stance towards hosting the series has changed given that its licensing status has? Now that it's unlicensed, shouldn't it be treated the same as unlicenced titles?
Aaah, chapter ended at the most important paaart XD
Finally! A new chapter! Thank you so much!
damn chapter 15 is such a cliffhanger :(
I think is kinda nice that u guys actually respect the whishes of scan groups...keep up the good work!
Chapter 1-4 is unavailable due to Aerandria's policy [no licensed allowed to be hosted]. You can get those chapters here : http://aerandria.net...bariya-komachi/ :)
