Opinion: Cute but forgettable.

To start the art is really unique but not for me personally. It’s really round and kind of dopey looking but it doesn’t really completely offset the basic storyline and characters.

I think this was a fun and cute read but overall didn’t leave a lasting impression. Every issue seems to resolve pretty quickly. It’s definitely a comedy but not that funny.

If you enjoy vampires and don’t mind cost or can read it for free this is a relaxing quick read. But with the cost of manga these days it’s not something I’d really re-read.

Genre: Adventure/Drama/Gender Bender/Fantasy

Summary:  
Ajin boys who show signs of special abilities are conscripted to serve in the imperial palace as beast-servants—status symbols and shields for their royal masters, to be kept or discarded on a whim. When they were children, Rangetsu’s twin brother Sogetsu was ripped from her arms and sent to the palace to attend Prince Tenyou as a beast-servant, where he quickly fell victim to bloody dynastic intrigues. Now in a world that promises only bitterness, Rangetsu’s one hope at avenging her brother is to disguise herself as a man and find a way into the palace!

Prince Tenyou is not what Rangetsu expected, and the political currents in the palace run deep and strange. Does Rangetsu have any chance of finding justice for her brother, or will she become just another Ajin casualty in the game of kings?
