Shinigami Ai is bored with his job and to seek enjoyment he has an interest in high-school girl Ren who only has days left to live. She is the student council president at her school and really a good-hearted girl, but she is feared by the whole school because of her harsh way of speaking.

It was cute... but the characters lacked depth and development. Art was nice though.
Might just be me moving away from shoujo's and the fact that I didn't care for the main characters (That said, I liked the other grim reaper)...

I'm actually not into something like 'the grim reaper falling in love with the person he's supposed to take the life away' but when I read the good comments I thought, give it a try since it's only 8 chapters and wow! I actually loved it. Not too cliche, and really sweet. A must read! smile

i have to admit i read it coz the art was promising.. but it ended so well i love the little twists and turns near the end.. also that extra oneshot (0.5 Lunch) was to die for it was so good too, but sad..

 The best "supernatural" shoujo

Probably one of if not THE best short shoujo stories out there. The art style is fun and refreshing, the characters are well-defined and interesting, and the supernatural element is played up just enough to remind you that it exists without being totally front and center. The romance is well-paced despite the length. Motives for the romance are excellent and believable. The romance between Ai and Ren focuses almost 100% on character interaction--meaning that physical looks play almost no part in their getting together. The characters all change each other and effect each other's lives, and every emotion feels very real.

I also like that this is all told from Ai's perspective.

Really don't have any complaints. Tobina Touya is my favorite mangaka and I believe this is her best work.

there weren't really tear jerking romantic scenes, but the way they showed they care and love for each other were enough for me. i mean, the love was conveyed properly by their acts without too much force hugging or kissing like what smuts have.

For some reason I wasn't really into it. The plot is great and definitely unique but I just didn't think it was that great! The romance is cute and all but it just felt like something was missing for me..

It was short but it was great. I think I'm just a sucker for love stories where the main character is bashful tsundere and the guy is playful trickster. The romance between the main characters just made me blush it was so adorable. And I liked the art even more than I expected to. It's a bit different and dark but I started to like that about it, not that I didn't like it to begin with. The story itself isn't anything mind blowing plot-wise, it's pretty simple, but in a good way (especially because its focus was romance) and the whole grim reaper + human romance (basically unorthodox love) didn't feel cliche to me at all because the male lead felt surprisingly human most of the time. I was pleased with the ending even though it was a little unexplained (at least fully), but that didn't matter much.

Sad that it's over. Wish I could read more similar stories.

You know how there are those stories and manga that just capture your attention? There are also those ones that, no matter how hard you try, you really just can't get into.
This one's the type that just grab you. It's an interesting premise, and the characters are really very lovable. Ren is strong and admirable, and I really liked the rest of the characters, too! It's sort of a refreshing, airy, interesting and sweet manga. It's not like... (prepare for weird dessert analogy) really heavy cake with lots of frosting; it's more like sorbet after a hot summer's day. It's not too focused on comedy, it's not too depressing or emotional. It just has a very good feel to it. Even the art is sort of whimsical and elegant.
Anyway, what I'm getting at is... read this! It's really a nice manga. biggrin

[spoiler]Story was cute only wish it coulda been longer :[
I liked how it was simple, no crazy love-triangels for crazy people trying ot kill each other to "balance" the world again and what not
that one-shot at the end had a very bittersweet and fulfilling ending, he died D: and musta been for a long time because her ring was decaying D:[/spoiler]

I like art like this, makes it feel a bit "arty", rather than manga style.....If that makes any sense. I wasn't expecting this story to have as much depth as it did, so it was a pleasant surprise that it was so good.
