The characters are fun and the art is quite good. There isn't much of a plotline (from what I've seen), but the cute stories about the main characters are nevertheless enjoyable to read.

I read it on a whim and I ended up really liking the story. It was definitely very fresh and new, the concept of the story. I really loved the anima markings. Those were pretty darn sexy. I would mind having a tattoo with Senri's marking. In my opinion, I thought this was a pretty lighthearted read and very cute <3

However, I am extremely distraught over the ending of the story though. It sort of left in a cliffhanger like ending. That was the only reason why I gave this manga only four stars. I just wish the final chapters of the last volume would have elaborated more on Cooro's mental state when he on that funeral pyre, how is it that he managed to get his wings back, why did Fly lose the wings he took from Cooro, and why did Blanca just fade away like that?

It would also have been great to know if Blanca's existence had any relation with the animas, how she came to be if any, and Blanca's ties with Cooro.

i had read it halfway before. i dropped it because im quite uncomfortable with certain subject such as slavery and pedophilia, but now i had went through hundreds of other manga and become quite jaded, i found that i can enjoy this. a nice, cute read where the harshest of conditions treated with a smile.

update:
at last i manage to finish this manga. what the...the ending with fly is unexpected and a bit creepy. i dont understand the last chapter much. however overall this manga is quite good. theres no grand plot or super villain, but their adventure is certainly cute and painful at the same time. really, for a manga populated with kids, somehow it come across as quietly mature.

If you ever need an extra dose of cuteness to get through the day, this is a great series to pick up. While it lacks many conventional characteristics of a manga series (like a plot), it makes up for it in the adorable art-style, amusing characters, and interesting side-stories. It's definitely not a series to come to if you want serious characters or a detailed, dramatic plotline, but it's a good series for relaxation and a short burst of amusement.

Bad, really, really bad. No story, no fun, just cutycuty drawing. Sence? Where

this series is soo kawaii ((cant spell but i mean cute)) and i like it a lot.. and i am hoping to read the whole series

Besides the lack of any meaningful story resolution or even just character development, the story is also amazingly jarring in its superficial treatment of serious topics: the story deal with topics like slavery and racism, and yet even the slavers look baby-faced and well-meaning.

Whichever age group this series was aiming for, it wildly missed its mark.

I love +Anima, I actually just read it yesterday. ^^ I have yet to read the second volume though. ._.;;

awww...it's a cute manga....

It's a super great manga. The characters are very cute. The story is very interesting.
