I love romance but it's nice to have some adventure.<br />@Rummanah - I think the series is complete but not sure.

Even if the MC isn't fully original, the side characters intrigue me enough to want to check this series out. Thanks for the rec!<br /><br /><br />Smiles!<br />LoriLoriStronginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10764202539292045963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-72797457024286795022011-07-25T15:35:15.176-05:002011-07-25T15:35:15.176-05:00Good review, I read this one a while back and I en...Good review, I read this one a while back and I enjoyed it enough to add the next volume to my TBR too :)Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15842315793902005771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-78736223785657772612011-07-25T13:27:49.746-05:002011-07-25T13:27:49.746-05:00My make it or dump it determination with all books...My make it or dump it determination with all books, especially manga is if the story/characters grab me. The plot of this book, granted it's the first volume, doesn't really strike me. I'm curious how the series progresses and like the other commenters, will pick it up. Is the series complete?Rummanah Aasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119402559076729383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-65441754121175233002011-07-25T12:29:57.107-05:002011-07-25T12:29:57.107-05:00I've also read the first volume of Kekkaishi, ...I've also read the first volume of Kekkaishi, it wasn't really intresting enough to pull me in. If your trying shonen you should totally give D. Gray Man a try it's my favorite shonen! :) I love your manga reviews, here's a review of a manga I recently did: <br /><br />http://fantasysink.blogspot.com/2011/07/manga-monday-2.htmlBleuettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12645439518677826949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-19827060252652964472011-07-25T11:43:01.450-05:002011-07-25T11:43:01.450-05:00I agree with the above comments.

Now I'm all interested to see if you decide to give up on this series or not:) The demonology aspect sounds really interesting, but if you can't quite connect to the characters because you're just getting a lot of information and no emotion, then that makes things difficult.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-51377952524645569412011-07-25T08:00:09.147-05:002011-07-25T08:00:09.147-05:00I liked this one.
