Description
Rikuo Nura, a middleschooler who is three-fourths human and a quarter demon, lives in a house full of spirits along with his demon grandfather. Trying to keep his human and demon sides separate, Rikuo does good deeds in order to seem more like a "good" human and avoid his classmates' suspicions. However, the older he grows, the more difficult it becomes to avoid both his demon persona and his obligations as the grandson of not just any demon, but the master of all spirits! Rikuo's grandfather is looking to make him into his successor, but what does Rikuo want?
Rikuo Nura is about to find out that becoming the master of all spirits isn't as easy as it sounds.

| Favorite things by envywine on September 27th, 2009, 6:31am |

This manga combines two favorite things for me: yakuza and demon spirits! How awesome is that? A+++++
I love the interaction of Rikuo and his youkai underlings as the master (in training) of basically a biker gang. I also love the basic ghost stories and interaction with the real world as a halfling supernatural being, kind of in, more than kind of an outsider but trying desperately hard to fit in. Hope that focus doesn't get lost in endless shounen fights and angsting about a girl, whoever that ends up being. (The girls are super lame in this story, sigh.)

| One Little Problem by kirabook on July 16th, 2009, 3:05pm |

I HATE his hair in night form. That's one of the reasons i neglected to read it. why does it have to stick straight out like that?
Besides that, the plot is okay and i find the characters likeable.

| Great Manga by mangafan321 on May 18th, 2009, 9:23pm |

| evil4hunter: you said Rikou doesnt fight in his human form, but that is actually not true. Not to be rude or anything, but there is a scene where he is human and he fights really well, he is able to hold his own against a strong Youkai. I think this is a preview to his future as a Youkai/Human. |

its kinda sad to see a few hq release then a few lq release.
hopefully theres a more uniform standard for all chapters,
(yea even going back to release hq version)
(meh who doesnt like to just dl from 1 group only.)
this artstyle fits nicely to the story and seems quite original to me.
or maybe someone can point out which series it borrowed plot from |

| Nice story by orpheus17 on March 4th, 2009, 4:45am |

So far, it seems like a pretty good story. I have learned more about youkai from this story than Inuyasha (much of the story is like a youkai encyclopedia). The characters are decent enough. Rikuo is actually one shounen star who actually knows how to use his power instead of going through the painfully long process of gaining strength as he goes along.
The only problem I have is that all of the youkai have called him "Rikuo" in his night form in front of Kana and Yura...how long is it supposed to take for them to realize who he is?

| Not bad at all by Kevadu on January 21st, 2009, 12:16pm |

I think this manga is an excellent mix of original and standard, generic shounen elements.
The first few chapters do suffer a bit from monster-of-the-week syndrome and the timeline is a little confusing as it jumps around a bit (and where does the original oneshot fit in, or is that not canon?). However it doesn't take long at all for this series to find its footing, and I was hooked after about 10 chapters. It also feels like there is real character development happening, as even with the relatively small number of chapters that are out now some of the characters have already started to grow and mature (And no, by 'grow and mature' I don't mean 'trained and gained new powers'. I mean actual character growth.).
The fight scenes have been cool but mercifully short (at least so far...it looks like that might be changing, though). I do get annoyed by the tendency of shounen manga to drag out fights for chapter after chapter, but that hasn't been a problem with this manga (yet). There is also a potentially interesting romantic subplot developing, though it hasn't really been the focus thus far.
Anyway, to sum it up I think this series gets off to a bit of a confused start but quickly develops into something that has a lot of potential. There's action, comedy, romance, and enough original ideas to keep things interested. What more do you want?

| this is a very interesting manga , although some might feel its a little bit generic shounen and some might feel the pace in the beginning being somewhat disconnected. but i say give this manga a chance , it does have the potential to be really good, at least i enjoyed it and feel its worth my time |

| So so by evil4hunter on December 6th, 2008, 9:34pm |
|
I think that the story is so so, but the characters remind me of Inuyasha .I don't say you copy, so don't take it the wrong way.And the way the story builds is a little sleepy, when time comes , the main character becomes superman, why doesn't he fight when he is in normal form, like shin angyo onshi . ...blah blah blah........

| this manga is awesome by pokui on November 23rd, 2008, 1:38pm |

i really like rikuos personality and his night form is really cool too.. and kanas really cute when she blushes... but the story is really good... i like how rikuos slowly becoming more accepting of his youkai self... id love to see what happens if everyone finds out about him. the art is really good too, very japanese-esque, and the eyes are beautiful.

| Another good Shonen Jump series by JuggaloWarrior on September 11th, 2008, 12:04am |

I've enjoyed this series a lot so far, the main character is likable as well as the secondary characters. Hope its continued for a longer period and not ended abruptly like Double Arts.
