Disappointing ending…

by kyleatreides

Rating: N/A

…but I really enjoyed this manga, probably because of my personal interest in supernatural genre. The ending isn’t super rushed, but I wish it’s a different one because I really like the friendship between Ashiya and Itsuki. Someone somewhere said this manga maybe got axed, hence the ending, and I have to agree because otherwise, why would you end a multi-volume series this way? All in all, glad I read it, love this universe, but I’d like to forget the ending.

kind of weak

Rating: 7.0 / 10.0

I love mangas about yokais. This one remids me of XxXHoLic in theme, but it's actually not that good. I feel the author was lost in who the protagonist was, and what the story was supposed to be about. It's light-hearted and slice-of-life, but the slice-of-life adventures are few and not that terribly interesting, and the mangaka has difficulty upping the conflicts and emotions in the story. That lead us to a story that could be good, but it just ended up okay: it lacks meat and depth to be anything else. That said, there is a plot, the characters are lovable, and the art is good, so I'll give it a seven.

In the end I've read it but I can't recommend it in good faith, as it's a very weak story.

A good feel series

by Lalalady

Rating: 9.0 / 10.0

I've finally caught up until the probable ending chapter 92. I am still wishing for it to continue but as it stands now, it's already finished. It had a good run and I am surprised that they really went ahead to finish the plot point. I was hoping it would just be a one big arc but all good things comes at an end. It took me a while to process Barakamon's ending and Fukigen na Mononokean is also in my list to process as well. I love the feel of the atmosphere whenever they talked about Sakae. Unlike the mystery on Natsume Yuujinchou's, this one just pushed through the case and went directly where it should've been. I just wish it included some few more epilogues but this is the decision of both the author and the editor. I hope whatever they're planning on making next, would be fun as well. Really recommend to try out this series!

The time has come...

I've followed this manga for so many years. When the anime came out and there was only one chapter I was so excited that I immediately looked for the manga. I even dropped the anime lol
It was so nice having a story with two boys with whom I fell so in love <3 So many characters were introduced and there were so many things that I wanted to know about them.
Actually, there are still way too many things I'd like explained. Maybe they were explained but I chose to ignore them? There are also many characters I would have loved to see more of...
But just as life, everything is finite. This manga has come to an end and I will be gratefull for it every second of my life. It is my little treasure because no one else from my group fancied it so I was the only one to have come this far.
P.S.: YES, I DID think it may have some BL in it at the beginning but I actually find it so amazing that there's no explicit hint at any romantic relationship between the characters!!! I love them all and I hope they all live life happily (despite not being real lol)
It's been wonderfull to go through this journey with you all. Have a nice day <3

I was introduced to anime first then read the manga. The story is slow paced but I enjoy the character development. I love how Ashiya and Abeno friendship are drawn. Read it when you have lot of free time. I wish this is weekly not monthly release because it is slow and only 30 ish page im curious about the mystery behind it!

Nice stories

As others have said it is a light reading but fun. I like the mc's and the demons they need to 'exorcise'. I think exorcise is not exactly what he does but like I said it is a fun read. Haven't read all the books yet or the anime but so far I have enjoyed it.

Easy-going slice-of-life about demons with nothing serious going on

by Seregosa

Rating: 6.5 / 10.0

Just as my subject stated, this is just an easy-going light-hearted story with some light comedy and interesting parts. I actually liked it fairly much, but it wasn't to the point where I couldn't stop reading or felt that it was truly awesome.

It offers what it's supposed to. We have a lot of demons and for some reason, nothing truly bad ever happens. The peak of the drama would be one demon who threatens the mc and hates humans, but even then he wouldn't be killed and it's all just an empty farce, at least that's the way it feels.

Seriously, It's nice for light reading, but if you start to think, you notice so many flaws in the logic of this plot. I just ignored them even if I at times felt a bit fed-up with the stupidity going on, after all, this wasn't meant to be a serious work so one can expect fallacies such as this. Things such as 1: when bothered about a smell, they don't use anything to cover their noses despite it being proved that mere plastic can easily contain all the smell without leaking it, 2: They frequently complain or perhaps are just irritated about not being able to convince people of demons existing and that humans are annoying because they don't believe them and even look down on them as if they're lying, but everything it would take is using a small item or perhaps a cloth and cover the small fuzzy demon that always accompanies them, seriously, what better way to prove it than letting something float in the air and even move around? It was proven several times that people CAN see "mundane" items floating and moving when a demon interacts with them. 3: The world is excessively unrealistic, there are pretty much no evil demons and almost all of them seem to be perfectly happy interacting with humans, there are problem solving but just about never any true cases. The exorcism is actually just convincing demons to go into a portal to the underworld on their own. They care too much about killing even evil demons, it's stupid. We don't even get any real explanations on any of the powers in this manga, seems the author just goes with the flow and adds whatever he wants whenever he wants with zero explaining whatsoever.

There's also some background plot, mainly the mystery about the mc's father who disappeared or died, it was pretty cliché, but what can we expect? I felt it was a good addition nonetheless, it added at least a little bit of depth to a story which would otherwise have been a simple chapter-to-chapter monster pop-up story with comedy. There's also some random drama here and there where the mc struggles with his new life/job and whatever comes along with it, it makes him feel more alive than some other characters that just accept it all without even thinking about it.

Well, overall, it's pretty nice as a super light-hearted and fluffy, maybe even cute, manga, sometimes it manages to be amusing as well. Unrealistic and foolish, but it's pleasing nonetheless as long as you can ignore the flaws and take it for what it is, but I assume most of the veteran readers would be able to do that easily. Recommended, 6.5/10 in score.

for patient people

by celilah

noting that i had to painstakingly stop reading the series at around chapter forty due to the nature of the way the plot/story is laid out. not a negative thing of course, but it features the same sort of pace (that's slightly faster, though still slow) that you would find in stories like natsume yuujinchou, super lovers, oboreru knife, noragami, etc... *basically at a very relaxed pace, however all chapters contribute to the significant plot.
point is, because of its pace, you would find way more enjoyment reading this either: straight through in one go; or wait for it to collect at least more than twelve chapters. which is essentially the way i treat the aforementioned series--and yes there is a better balance in reading in chunks rather than in singular chapters.

all that said, it's a charming manga that's easy to read and also contains depth in its own way. if you're looking for a "natsume yuujinchou" in fukigen na mononokean you're in the wrong place for actual complexity. if you are here for a "natsume yuujinchou", you'd have better luck going to fruits basket or gakuen alice since they deal with similar tribulations.

tl;dr: solid plot, character development is great, comedy is heart-warming (esp. when you get absorbed into the story since it made me feel giddy), definitely is going to be long so hopefully 10+ volumes, and it's not tedious to read at all.

Cute stories

by CCheshire

Rating: 8.0 / 10.0

Recently watched the anime this season and picked up the manga out of curiosity and it's a entertaining and light read. It's not quite as sleepy as Natsume Yuujinchou but nothing really frightening about the demons either. Typically story follows the MC meeting new demons each chapter with a problem where he goes off and helps them using his knowledge.

Art is clean and characters have unique appearances esp some of the demons who appear in each chapter. Backgrounds are cheery and colorful in the different scenes.
