Description
[From Fushichou]:
Teio is the celestial son of King Soryuu (the Emperor of Thunder), whose mission is to hunt and kill demons in the human world. He works for and respects his father's will … until he meets the handsome and entrancingly-frail Keika, a beautiful demon with "faintly-colored violet skin, white hair, and violet eyes." For our young Lord Teio, it is love at first sight. Instead of killing his enemy, he decides to bring the beautiful evil up to heaven with him. What will happen between the childish celestial and the bewitching demon?
I was pretty disspointed. The art really appealed to me and the premise seemed good.
Keika's character is badly written. He is supposed to be wiser but he just isn't. Not only does he not show in any significant way, his emotional reactions are quite shallow. He seems to search Riri just for the hack of it (and just as easy he decides to stop looking for her and stay with Teio) and even thought he has learned lots of languages and how to make medicines, he surely has failed to understand what Riri meant about love and other 'species'. She clearly said that it wasn't wise to fall in love with humans, since their life span were so much shorter. However, she never says nothing against their nature, nor does she implies she regrets her love. So he shouldn't be so prejudiced about the ones from 'heaven'.
About the plot itself, it lacks in development and has a lot of unnatural happenings. Not to mention the absurd ending. I already knew it would be 'axed' but I did't imagine it would be that unreasonable. It's absurd telling the readers that Teio actually gets the general position. It seems the mangaka wants to show that their relationship did not set back on any other level of their personal lives, but there is no need to that, and actually brings their passion down. And adding that he was youngest is just an act of marry sueing him! For last and not least, telling that Keika was the only demon ever to be accepted in Heaven is to say that the people from there kept being as the stereotype portrait, or that Keika was an exception within demons... but that can't be true, since at least Riri wasn't your usual evil demon...
However the art was really great, and I believe that the translations weren't that accurate, fouling the dialogues. But I'm pretty sure that i wasn't just the translation's fault.
It's quite good. Not very great but not bad either So i give it a 7 I also give it this score coz i personally dont like Keika The one i like is Ashray from Jadou(the main story)
The art is wonderful, but the story the very predictable. If you are looking for something unique, you better look elsewhere. I don't know if it's the translation or something, but alot of the dialog is very confusing. It could very-well prove to be a major turn-off for people.
