There is a
world of myth and magic that intersects ours, and only a special few can
see it. Misao Harada is one such person, and she wants nothing to do
with magical realms. She just wants to have a normal high school life
and maybe get a boyfriend. But she is the bride of demon prophecy, and
her blood grants incredible powers, her flesh immortality. Now the demon
realm is fighting over the right to her hand...or her life!
Misao’s due date is rapidly
approaching, and while she knows giving birth to her child means her
death, she isn’t ready to give up on life. But can she and Kyo discover a
way to avert tragedy when countless Senka Maidens before her have
suffered the same fate?!
It’s the heartrending conclusion of this supernatural love story!

kabuki—and boys—but she's eager to learn about both. Her first encounter
with Ryusei doesn't go very well, but with the help of a cat named Mr.
Ken, the two teenagers quickly become prince AND princesses of kabuki.
Love was never so dramatic!

Personal View:
I couldn't help myself I found another series by Kanoko Sakurakoji that I just had to read. I completely adore her artwork. I believe this 2 volume series was one of her first manga. Which after this came Black Bird which started its print in the US back in 2007 - On going. The reason why I am recommending that you read it, is because it very much is a great opener to Black Bird. Though the stories aren't anywhere near the same. Don't get me wrong though, I can totally relate to this series in so many ways.
We've all seen that "Hot Guy" from back in high school that could totally be a model, that all the girls just want. In poor little Akari's case its more of a mishap that this opportunity happens or could you possibly call it fate all because of a little black cat called Mr. Ken. That she gets to spend time with this "Prince Like" Ryusei from school. But in the world of kabuki theatre he's known as Shonosuke Ichimura, the internationally famous actor.
Yes, their is a decent amount of drama will say in this series even though its some what about acting. It is written out very well, and also shows how some teens would be having problems in a new type age of trying to date. Facing struggles to balance their relationship, personal lives, careers, along with family that has its ways of traditions.
I've also listed below some other helpful information for you.
Book Description: Story & Art by Kanoko Sakurakoji
There's
trouble brewing behind the kabuki curtain. Ryusei's dad doesn't want
anything—or anyone!—distracting his son from his chosen profession. It's
no secret that he disapproves of Ryusei's romance with Akari. Now he's
determined to sabotage their relationship anyway he can!

Additional Information
Misanthropy is the general hatred, distrust, or disdain of the human species or human nature. A misanthrope, or misanthropist is someone who holds such views or feelings. The word's origin is from Greek words μῖσος (misos, "hatred") and ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos, "man, human"). The condition is often confused with asociality.
Literature
Misanthropy has been ascribed to a number of writers of satire, such as William S. Gilbert ("I hate my fellow-man") and William Shakespeare (Timon of Athens). Jonathan Swift is widely believed to be misanthropic (see A Tale of a Tub and, most especially, Book IV of Gulliver's Travels). Molière's character Alceste in Le Misanthrope (1666) states:
“
My hate is general, I detest all men;
Some because they are wicked and do evil,
Others because they tolerate the wicked,
Refusing them the active vigorous scorn
Which vice should stimulate in virtuous minds.
”
Kabuki(歌舞伎) is a classical Japanese dance-drama. Kabuki theatre is known for the stylization of its drama and for the elaborate make-up worn by some of its performers.
The individual kanji characters, from left to right, mean sing (歌), dance (舞), and skill (伎). Kabuki is therefore sometimes translated as "the art of singing and dancing". These are, however, ateji characters which do not reflect actual etymology. The kanji of 'skill' generally refers to a performer in kabuki theatre. Since the word kabuki is believed to derive from the verb kabuku, meaning "to lean" or "to be out of the ordinary", kabuki can be interpreted as "avant-garde" or "bizarre" theatre. The expression kabukimono (歌舞伎者) referred originally to those who were bizarrely dressed and swaggered on a street.

I'm very sorry to all my adoring fans whom keep tabs on my little blog. With the craziness of the holidays with family and friends. I'm back with some great new material, sadly though I'm stuck on a couch because I got hurt. So plenty of time to put my focus into this. Hopefully my personal views along with comments and information has been a great help to everyone whom pops in. Please start checking in more frequently again as of the new up coming Anime. Enjoy your wonderfully cold January. And please hope for summer to come soooner.
Exactly one year prior to the beginning of DearS, humanity
made unprecedented contact with extraterrestrial life. Forced to crash
land into Tokyo Bay when, en route to their home planet of Thanatos,
their spacecraft breaks down, 150 humanoid aliens are naturalized into Japanese society and affectionately nicknamed "DearS"; a portmanteau of the words "Dear" and "Friends".
Takeya Ikuhara is a temperamental seventeen-year-old Japanese student
attending the fictitious Koharu High School with a strong prejudice
against the DearS. Due to a childhood scare, he believes that the aliens
are fake, worthless beings that have generated nationwide overhype.
On his way home from school he discovers a homeless DearS who, after
fainting and much to his annoyance, he feeds and shelters in his
apartment. The girl, who he nicknames Ren, is infantile and friendly,
and grows obsequious and dependent upon Takeya, a responsibility he
tries to disassociate himself from. Her oblivious tenacity keeps her
around, however, and over time, realizing Ren's genuine care and empathy
for him, Takeya has a change of heart. Unfortunately, because Ren is
deemed defective, DearS headquarters orders her arrested.
DearS(ディアーズDiāz) is a manga series co-written and illustrated by Banri Sendo and Shibuko Ebara, credited under their pen name Peach-Pit. It was serialized monthly by Media Works in their magazine Dengeki Comic Gao!
from March 2002 to December 17, 2005 and was later published into a ten
volume set by the company. The manga was licensed and translated into
English by Tokyopop. A 13-episode anime was adapted by MSJ and a PlayStation 2 video game was produced by MediaWorks.
Personal View:
This was one of my most favorite Manga and Anime series growing up. Even now I enjoy going back and rewatching the Anime series. It's very entertaining, and funny. You can watch all the episodes on YouTube, I will gladly list a few below so you can check it out. Sadly though this series is now longer in print. Or available on DVD. If you'd like to buy it, you'll have to go online. Hopefully you'll enjoy this just as much as I did. I listed below the sites where you can read the Manga series, and find more information about it.

I'm extremely sorry that I haven't been posting anything. I've been extremely busy as of lately! So I'm sincerely apologizing now why I have the chance, also I've got some great news for you!! In my absence, I've decided to start adding release dates once a month for the books I've been posting about. Hopefully this will be of some help to many of you that have been asking, also with giving price information. As well as where you can possibly buy things. Along with the online websites for reading series.
I've also found a great new tool, or say device in which you can read Manga/ watch Anime on in great clarity. I myself even have one!! They are worth every penny you spend on them people. But I also have many other needs that this device helps with. So if all your buying it for is to watch or read etc and pure entertainment. I suggest you buy one of the lesser expensive models.
"Galaxy Note"
Hopefully you find this tool to be as helpful as I do! Enjoy! :) ♥

from Hollows and help the spirits themselves find peace. The paranormal

Tepes, has seen its share of conflict and turmoil. And yet there are
times of relative tranquility when the Bund is a popular tourist
destination during daylight hours.
When two teenage tourists, Garcia
Fujisaki and his reckless best friend Masaki, ditch their group to find
a vampire who will turn Masaki, it’s Garcia who accidentally pays the
price. The only hope for a cure to his newfound vampirism is for the
teens to team up with the stoic Akira Kaburagi, Princess Mina’s loyal
lycanthrope bodyguard, in pursuit of the one person who holds the key to
Garcia’s salvation.
