Description
Bekku Nanaki is mirror clairvoyant. She moved to Tokyo from the countryside to escape calamities she sees. There, she witnesses an accident on the road caused by a mobile fish vendor, who saves her from being crushed by a billboard that falls from above.
The next day, he turns out to be Banjou Kizaki, her classmate and a student held back due to his involvement in incidents and accidents that others attribute to his being unlucky. His eccentric behavior, however, catches her attention, which he explains as changing the future...

| decent concept by ravensdark on July 5th, 2010, 9:39pm |
|
The art was pretty good and the characters were interesting. The whole clairvoyancy thing was cool and then there were the anti-heroes getting involved. I have little in the way of criticism for the motivations that were given to the characters. About how they went about their work is a bit wierd. I would think that if there was a string of averted disasters that had the same couple of people involved their would be some other people asking questions maybe the police getting involved. In this story the police were only incidental to the story and only getting in the way when the characters were trespassing.
Most of the story was man against disaster but only for the most part man made disasters, though most of them were accidental in nature.
The characters were fun and while it was short it did not overwhelm us with huge amounts of episodes that are so common in the shounen genre. The ending was a little bit rushed though I somewhat enjoyed how the ending is a foreshadowing of the prediction. This way the ending was left a little bit open does he die or not.

| Extremely enjoyable... by Tatania on June 18th, 2010, 1:10pm |

It’s strange how some manga that I think should be shorter have many volumes and chapters, and some manga that I would like to be longer are quite short. This manga is one of those manga that I wish was longer, but isn’t. Even though it isn’t long the story was an excellent one, and though I wish it had gone on for a bit longer it was still a very nice read that was extremely enjoyable!
Plot- The plot is very interesting, great concept for the story. However the shortness of the manga dragged the plot down a bit, it would have been better if the manga had been a bit longer and some parts of the plot were drawn out a bit longer, as it is the manga isn’t bad and the pacing is quite nice.
Characters- The characters are really endearing, Banjou is quite strange, but in a funny way, and Nanaki is sweet and levels off Bajou’s strangeness nicely. The duo is fun to read about. The other characters play more minor rolls and you don’t really get to know the secondary characters that much making them nothing all that special, but not bad characters either.
Art- The art was nice but sometimes it seemed the artist got a bit lazy with some pictures and those images didn’t seem as good as other images on the page. But the artwork was still quite nice.
Other- I felt that the antagonist’s were just thrown in there, quickly defeated, and then just forgotten. I was a bit annoyed by this but not annoyed enough for it to lower my liking of the manga. Another thing to note, everyone, the end is (in all likelihood) a happy one. Spoiler (highlight to view) I’ve concluded that Banjou lives in the end, the Cassandra mask is what was behind all the prophesies, which included the ones Banjou saw in his book, including the one about his own death, so when they sealed the mask it was suspected that the prophesies made by the Cassandra mask would be broken, which includes the prediction of Bajou’s death. Also at the end Nanaki say’s “Tomorrow Banjou’s new life starts” indicating he will live and Chiasa and Nanaki keep on talking during the end about Banjou's plans for the future also indicating he'll live, and, though this is more just my own assumptions, both Nanaki and Chiasa don’t seem sad at all, on the contrary they seem happy which would be strange if that day Banjou was dying… Plus they are having his birthday under a full blooming sakura tree which would be strange for them to have it there if they didn’t believe the predictions to be broken. Just my thoughts, feel free to disagree. The ending was a bit open unless you put some thought into it. The manga was good; it captured my attention and kept a firm hold of it all throughout the manga, and even at times had me on the edge of my seat as I awaited what would happen next. I really do recommend this manga!

| decent by imadeyouread on December 13th, 2009, 5:14pm |

It's okay. The plot is interesting and the art is good. Romance is minimal to none but this IS shounen, so I guess I shouldn't have been expecting much. The male lead is cool and funny but I found the female lead to be kind of annoying sometimes (sometimes!). It was kind of over-dramatic lol. Maybe 2 volumes was too short for my tastes? It did feel kind of rushed; maybe that's why I was feeling kind of confused while reading it, or simply unsettled. dunno.

| Great but Disappointed by tsunade666 on September 25th, 2009, 11:16am |

Why does it have to end like that. Its my first time reading a manga like this. Its actually pretty good but the 8 chapters are soooooo! short. its not even funny. But its good while it last but still I'm kinda angry on the publishers of this. It could last longer than that but it didn't.

| longer... by Romashk on August 24th, 2009, 6:06pm |

I don't know why it was given so little space( guess it was cut short by popularity polls or smthn), but it was interesting and fun. I'm looking forward to more works from this mangaka.

| Good shonen by Daxisheart on August 6th, 2009, 1:19pm |
|
Art is okay. It's readable, and fun shonen. The characters are pretty cool, especially when it gets later on in the story. It's a very interesting plot, but it's so completely disappointing that it's only two volumes, when it could have seemingly gone up to a dozen. With that in mind, I have to say that the ending wasn't too satisfying. It ended alright, but it could have been better and different. It didn't even explain the dying thing with banjou, and sort of assumes a good ending. There were seemingly a couple of plot holes, or maybe I just rushed it.
Verdict: It's a okay and fun manga, but you wish iit could have gone on a dozen more volumes to actually flesh things out.

The art and storyline is really well done until the end. the art is still fine, but the ending is not as satisfying as it could've been. otherwise, it's a great manga.

| Pretty Cool Story by markdarkangel on July 25th, 2009, 7:16pm |

Pretty much enjoyed this one from beginning to end, who knew that predicdiction breaking can be so good. The characters really impressed me in this one, especially Banjou, the guy take so much damage and still be able to stand up, pretty cool.
Overrall, this manga is awesome for a quick read.

I never read shounen, i always read shoujo, (i'm a girl) and i love this manga. Its very good i always get sick of Shoujo where the girl always falls for the guy but this seems a bit more interesting and with all the action, it awsome!
