Rasetsu, Vol. 2

This is a nice magical-detective manga with a love triangle and a twist. The beautiful heroine comes on too strongly and pushes boys away, who otherwise might date her. Its not really her fault, she has to find her true love or she'll die! But she's pretty innocent about what love is supposed to be. And clueless, and cute.I don't give it 5 stars because the art is deja vu style and not up to the standards of the most brilliant mangaka. Still, I enjoy these stories as light entertainment. Its a lot better than TV! Ha ha.

This is a good series, but I'm not sure if I like it more than Yurara or not. Maybe so because Yako may finally get to find some love.

Very good manga. Love the way its written love the characters. I honestly can't wait to finish the series and buy more volumes!

Rasetsu continues work at the exorcist agency in the second volume of the manga, facing a variety of ghosts, some that hit closer to home than she'd like. Rasetsu is forced to confront her fear of death when she faces the ghost of a child, and a possessed man reminds her of her own weaknesses and fears. A lighter job involves an exorcism at an amusement park, where the whole office comes along.The character development is far more interesting in this volume, where we get to see Rasetsu facing some of her worst nightmares and surviving. We also get flashbacks to when Rasetsu was younger and fragile, when she first met Kuryu.Through this, we get a better look at Kuryu, who is clearly hiding something darker than his love for Rasetsu. Also, Yako reveals a more protective side, even if he does not know how it affects Rasetsu, who is confused by her feelings.As in the last volume, all is not serious. Rasetsu's love of cake and quest for a boyfriend brings laughs, as does the bickering between Kuryu and Yako.If you liked the first volume, you will love this one. If the first volume of Rasetsu left you wanting, try this one. You may just get hooked.

Amazon is a great place to get manga books. Even with shipping you can usually get it for either the same price as the store or cheaper. Books form amazon usually comes with some kind of protection around the book whether it is cardboard or bubble wrap. I have never had any problem with any of the books I have bought through amazon and I know at a glance whether the books is available. If you are a manga fan like me, sometimes it is easier and simpler to order the book you want online.Now if you want to know about the series, it is a supernatural story but not horror. I got into this series because I has read another series I think it is spelled Yura. To be brief, in that story line one of the main characters falls in love with a "guardian spirit". That character shows up in Rasetsu. It is not like it follows the first series which takes place in high school. The character that shows up in Rasetsu is older. Nor does the series focus on this one character but instead the main focus is on a girl named Rasetsu.Judy Smith
