Description
Apathetic schoolboy Miharu Rokujou is content to meander through life in the sleepy village of Banten. But his quiet existence is shattered when the Grey Wolves of Iga, a powerful ninja clan, attempt to kidnap him in broad daylight. Only then does Miharu discover that the ultimate power of the hidden ninja realm — a power that can do both great good and great harm — is sealed within his body. As battles erupt among rival ninja clans seeking to control him, Miharu must overcome his apathy and learn the ways of the ninja if he wants any shot at survival!

It`s a really good manga, lots of action, an interesting theme and nice art. Kinda resembles Naruto but it seems more realistic.
And the main character is super lovable ^^
A real pity that it`s being released in such a disordered manner.
I recommend it and am w8ing for more releases

One of the best mangas i've read in a while. I really liked everything about it - from start to finish. The art was great, characters were just adorable, and nothing really annoyed me about it, other than the slight wonders of whether if it might be BL, or not. lol.
But yeah, the plot was definitely good and its different compared to other mangas. I mean, there's a good balance of everything in this manga and in every chapter - the fights and the recaps of memories, they don't even go past 2 chapters.
The author really kept the story at a simple flow with complex plots and made it enjoyable.
It might be similar to Naruto, but that's only if you've been a Naruto fan for a while, you'd definitely compare it. I mean, I read this I think probably 3-4 years ago, but I've been meaning to read it recently because I really liked it then. Now that I have, and I have stopped reading naruto for a while too, I think this series is really worth the read, because compared to Naruto, Nabari has a good length to it and I reckon the main character is soo much better.
I know it's not possible. But you know how sometimes when you just want to be able to read a manga that won't prolong for so long to disappoint you towards the middle, or it just drag the story on forever and ever and ever...Well it doesn't have any of that here, and I'd say, for those who are definitely looking for a manga that is a story and not a super long adventure I recommend it.
Though I must say, I was pretty suspicious of whether the author planned the ending or it was just a rush decision. : / but it was a great read. Maybe if I had to say something bad about it, would be the abilities that every character has, the author didn't go into it alot.

I've read the manga and it has been quite enjoyable. The anime is a little boring though so I've only watched three episodes. The story is a bit confusing but entertaining and I really like the main character. He knows how to control people. But I would really like to know who his teacher really is!
I can't wait to find out the ending of this story.

It has a grippping ninja themed storyline. Altough i can see problems the author might face having the ninja theme in a modern world i hope he does a good job at it since the manga shows considerable potential.
What catched me though was the original main character a very rare feature for a shonen manga to have nowadays and something i've been looking for for some time now. This accompanied by good clear art makes this manga a very good read which without a doubt deserves more attention.
at the very least i hope some subbing group can pick up the anime so i can enjoy this series

I love Nabari no Ou Anime is TOTALLY GREAT!!!!! but i have no idea about the manga. I want give it a try and read the manga too but you know as for someone who read the manga first then watch the anime or the other way around you Watch the anime first and then read the manga somehow it would probably shatter the image of what you already had in you mind of the anime and manga are too different . Anyway, if i gets really bore who knows maybe i will go to the bookstore and buy this manga serie and give it a try ^^
so based on the way the mangaka created the plots and how the story goes (as how it is adapted to anime) i will give it an 8 for now ^^
but for the anime i will give it a nine!! (i actually wanna give it a 10 XD i remember how I was so INTO the anime)
somehow if i happen to finish the manga i will come back and chnge my rate again alright ^^

This is good but I have no idea what made them think scanlating volume 6 before the rest was a smart choice...I read their reason but then if that was the case why not do volume 3...well its all in their spare time so I can't complain, Im glad someone is doing it atleast as this is a pretty interesting story...Hope V2 gets scanned soon..Im looking forward to it...

Not bad at all. But if you think this is anything but an alternate world you're either unaware of the proper use of the term, or crazy. In a bad way. There are some good themes, the main character is very likable, and funny. If you wanted to, you could draw some similarities between this and Naruto (if you really wanted to), the protagonist is special because he has some supreme power sealed inside of him, and it begs him to let it out now and again. Not really sure where the series is going at this point, but it's worth a look.

Wasn't terrible, but not one of those mangas I'll revisit. Maybe it's because I couldn't get attached to any characters, maybe it's because people hyped it up too much, maybe it's because someone spoiled it for me and told me how it ended *rage*, but I guess I enjoyed it.
Mixed feelings definitely, but it's okay for a first read.
