Description
AnimeNewsNetwork: In the story, Kaoruko runs a small herb shop after losing both of her parents when she was young. One day, a mysterious man dressed in all black enters the shop. Kaoruko is about to discover the true nature of this man named Kaname Hibiki.
With any Oomi Tomu manga you're promised three things: beautiful art, bishies GALORE and an amazing (and often steamy HEH HEH) romance. Four, actually: generally, all her stories have a supernatural element to it that adds an interesting twist to things. Majo no Biyaku is no different. Right now I'm loving the dynamic between the hero and heroine, and the (SPOILER! sort of) angsty shadow of doubt that has been/will be (HOPEFULLY) cast over their attraction what with Kaoruko's sudden powers of attraction (heh heh). I'm looking forward to watching their romance bloom. She isn't exactly my favourite of Oomi Tomu's heroines (Midnight Secretary's was KICK. ASS) but there's a sweetness about her that wins you over. ^^ And Kaname is just... rawr. Hahaha! I can't wait to read more! (I've even gone on to find all the Chinese raws I could. v.v And my Chinese is terrible.)
The story so far is getting pretty interesting--a lot of ingredients have been thrown into the mix in a single chapter: knights, witches, unicorns, dragons, white magic, black magic, an absentee mother in magical stasis, yada yada yada. I'm looking forward to where it goes! Can't wait for the smut to arrive as well, because DANG the male lead is attractive. I can't believe that I'm feeling jealous of a fictional two-dimensional female character.
Kaname actually reminds of the head shinigami in Black Butler... Same slicked back hair, same mannerism of pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose, etc.
And as always with Oomi Tomu, I love the art! The eyes are drawn so prettily and there's this beautiful tendril-y quality to her work that's hard to describe.
