black bird
label: betsucomi flower comics
publisher: shogakukan
phonebook: bessatsu shoujo comic
summary: misao isn’t really a complete airhead like everyone thinks.. she’s just too distracted by all these spirits and monsters surrounding her that other people can’t see. it was mostly a bother and an inconvenience (if tripping somebody doesn’t get more serious than an inconvenience, anyway) until her 16th birthday.. when the stakes were suddenly raised… because she is the senka no musume. prophecy has it that whoever should drink her blood will have their life prolonged, whoever should eat her flesh should live forever, and whoever should wed her (and get a child upon her) will have their clan prosper. or so it was explained after the reappearance of her childhood friend, kyo… who has moved back to the property next to her house and is now a teacher in her high school. he is now also the head of his tengu clan and has come to claim misao as his bride.. but, he’s not the only one… there are more monster clans out there than just the tengu. and they all want her.
commentary: based on the covers and the title, i, for some reason, thought it was going to be like a soap opera.. general hospital in manga format. i decided to check it out after finding out it was fantasy. the plot itself turns out to be the major factor.. tengu, shirohebi, kitsune, etc, all want to possess misao.. and, if you didn’t get it yet, take her by force if she won’t come willingly… playing into the whole smut appeal of the flower comics label. not quite smut yet by volume 5, but there is a promise that we’ll get at least one scene before the end of the series, lol. in any case, power struggles within clans and surrounding her seem to pretty much be the entire driving force. i labeled this “student teacher” mostly because of how they are set up in school, which she still has to regularly attend but we see less of. (it seems to really only take about 5% of the entire story.) as much as there is a veritable danger of discovery in school for a taboo relationship, i appreciate the focus on the two main plot issues. this really could stretch in every direction. funny, though, how school seems to be very important for a lot of the background.. that seems to be pretty much how she meets everyone (except for the retainers). she meets most of the contenders in her school – one by one – and even meets another significant character through the college her dad works in. in any case, interesting read so far… i hope it ends well.

If you’re in the corner and have got no cash to move out from that, you will need to take the personal loans. Because it should aid you emphatically. I take consolidation loans every year and feel myself good just because of this.
