Night of the Beasts Vol 6

Hmm...I think all I can really say is "awwwww."  Not in the "that was cute" way, but the "awwww...true love conquers all by kicking evil's butt by making it realize it isn't really evil and sending it off to get loved."

Also I really want to know exactly how Mikage got pregnant before her battle with kagara.  *stares at those two very, very pointedly*

And now Aria and Sakura will go and have justice seeking butt-kicking babies.  With maybe a demon companion or two.  I have to say, though, that I wish there had been a chance for Aria and her brother to hash things out between them.  Preferably a little less violently than last time.

(Also, this is two of my favorite shoujos in a row that logic dictates should have ended in a great big pile of dead bodies, not both halves of the OTP living.  Not, mind you, that I'm complaining in either case.)

We also have a  backup story this time around of Sakura soon after shortly after Kagara woke up inside of him.  He meets a blood relative who was struck blind by The Dream and she tells him someone stronger than her will save him, but mostly it's Sakura telling Kagara that he won't let him win.

There's also a short story about a family that moves into a house with an earth god trapped inside.  It was cute, but not a lot else.


Somebody license more Chika Shiomi manga.  Yurara's ok, but fairly normal shoujo, and the last volume of Canon is also already out and waiting to be read.  I need more like it a Night of the Beasts.

I finally got my copy of Night of the Beasts 6 last night, and read it this morning.

Yes.

I have all of Canon and most of Yurara now. I hope it's at least half as good.

Thank you for reccing this series!

YAY! Now you must pimp it out.

Canon and Yurara are both pretty decent, though not as good as NotB. The romance in Canon, though, makes the romance here look downright cute and fluffy.

I've been trying to pimp it out on my local friends. "Read this! I'll loan you the first volumes! YOU MUST READ THIS!"

Hrm.

I like the fictional screwed up relationships, too, as long as there's a good reason for them to be screwed up, instead of just angst and/or wrongness to be "interesting."

And you should definately read Basara.
