Hana to Akuma

HANA TO AKUMA is a very exciting and romantic manga. Watching it for the 6th time already now , i am totally hooked on the incredible work done by the mangaka. the story's concept is great and their is no place in the manga where you will feel bored or "why are they doing this...?!" "so annoying"...pure romance between a demon who has been taking care of a human girl all her life, except them everyone knows that they love each other,they go through many obstacles and hurdles together and the epic story end really made me cry , dont know about you but i really wishfor this manga to get anime adaptation :)

Hana to Akuma is a touching and beautifully written manga. As I was reading it, there were so many emotions as the characters experienced growth, change, and learned to overcome obstacles in their relationships. Although it has a good chunk of romance in it, it is not a cliche romance, and has an amazing plot full of twists and turns.

Story (9/10): The story itself was a beautiful one that it evoked a lot of emotion as I was reading it. It is about a demon who comes to earth and raises an abandoned child he finds. The child and the demon overcome the obstacles trying to separate them. Now before you think 'gross' or something of the like, the demon is not really portrayed as a father figure. Slowly but surely the child and demon come to realize that the feelings they have for each other are more than just the love of a family member.

Art (8/10): The art style of the manga is quite different from what I am used to. At first, it felt a bit strange, but as I kept on reading, I could appreciate the artwork. The art improves as the manga progresses, and the art really went well with the story.

Character (10/10): Character development and growth are really big in this manga. Their feelings for each other seem quite real as they slowly fall in love with each other. I love all the characters in this manga. Although their personalities differ from person to person, each plays a pretty important part in the story.

Enjoyment (10/10): I really enjoyed this manga, as I mentioned before, the feelings and emotions that occurred that I was reading it. It was so much fun to read the story; seeing the antics of the naive characters made me smile. I never even thought of quitting the manga, and I was hooked in the first chapter.

Overall (10/10): What more can I say? This manga really is a wonderfully written one. If you are even hesitating about reading it, I hope that you will at least give it a shot and be hooked into the world of Hana to Akuma.

I find in most shoujo manga the romance part is either too shallow or too childish. Hana to Akuma is an exception.
All I can say is that I thoroughly felt how much hana loves vivi and how much vivi loves her back. That's enough to make this shoujo manga a masterpiece.
The emotions in the manga are expressed just right. For those who have read Mars and felt how heavy the atmosphere is, Hana to Akuma is not that excessive. But it's not like your typical Boys Over Flowers either.

I really like the art and characters too. Vivi is hot and Hana is adorable. There aren't any major character development, but that is reasonable since they both love each other since the beginning. I won't spoil you the ending, but I think you'll find it just right. It's realistic yet heart warming at the same time.

When I first started Hana to Akuma, I was a little hesitant about it. The moment I finished the very first page though I was hooked, and wanted to read more! Honestly I couldn't stop. When I finished the whole series, I reread it and again and again.
The character development was very well thought of, and placed. Where as most Manga would introduce a character and then you would never see them again for the rest of the story, Hana to Akuma did a very good job on sticking with the plot, and introducing the characters and all of their backgrounds, without diving off on them and wandering around the general plot.
Most people who have read Hana to Akuma generally disagree with the ending. However that's what makes this manga so good. It tells you that impossible loves do work and are not entirely impossible.
For those of you who have not read Hana to Akuma, you are forewarned when reading the manga about what will happen at the end.
I found the ending real and beautiful.
It made me laugh, cry and wish for more.
Honestly I love this manga, its my favorite, definitely in my top ten. A beautiful love story between a demon and a human.

The reason I have this Hana to Akuma a 10 is because not many shoujos ever venture out to capture your heart. At the beginning, you may already be reluctant to keep on going because the manga starts out as the stereotype of a "typical shoujo manga." Hana to Akuma is about a demon (if you like vampires, well, this demon drinks blood) who picks up a human girl left in the cold and in the beginning, Vivi gives off the pretense that as soon as she gives him any trouble, she'll be disposed of.
Hana, the girl, is one of those brightening girls with a brilliant happy smile that people describe as a blossoming flower.


[A flower touched by a demon will wither and crumble.]


"A flower touched by a demon will crumble."


"If I touch Hana, she will crumble and wither, too."


These are the feelings of Vivi. If he touches her, he's afraid it will hurt that precious smile of hers.


I understand why you may not like this story. I mean, afterall, a 14 year old human girl and a 200 year-old demon? And Hana looks like a kid and a dwarf next to Vivi. Ah, but (SPOILER) (SPOILER) (SPOILER),
don't worry. Throughout the 58 chapters available, there is a potion that Hana sometimes digests for occasions in the demon world in which the potion makes her grown up. Also, the last few chapters are when Hana has grown up into a 17 year old girl, and she's no longer the baby she used to be. :) This story is amazingly funny yet tinged with sadness of the impossibility of the love and will keep you laughing, but as the end of the story nears, you will feel a pain as there are less and less chapters and less chapters until the end.

The story telling in this manga is just plain beautiful. I will not be able to forget this manga for a very long long time. Though the art took me a while to get used to, I've seen better drawn ones than this, but the ability of the mangaka to convey mixed emotions on the face of a character ( Vivi's face in the last chapter) was just brilliant.

EDIT: I just reread this manga for about the fourth time, and reading my original review made me realize I didn't give it the justice it deserves (and I never will be able to because I don't have that ultimate power). This series is one of the most beautiful and pure romance manga I have ever read.

You might say I'm crazy for giving this series a perfect score, a ten, but trust me when I say this series deservers even more. Could you imagine not wanting to touch the one you care about because you're scared you'll only do harm? Could you imagine knowing you will live while your loved one will eventually die? Could you imagine falling for someone you shouldn't have?

Hana to Akuma tells the tale of Vivi and Hana, a demon and a human. Vivi finds Hana alone in the snow as a baby and decides to take care of her "to pass the time". What Vivi didn't plan to do was become so attached to her. Throughout the entire manga you see their love for each other grow. They face obstacles in their journey, some trivial and simple, and other serious and life changing. One obstacle Vivi must face personally is a human boy fancying Hana, something I particularly enjoyed very much. A demon king also comes between the two, even going so far as to make Hana do something that results her experience pian in order to save Vivi's life.

The first couple chapters of Hana to Akuma are sweet and short one-shot like chapters that start to give you a taste of the relationship between Vivi and Hana. As the series moves on their relationship deepens and I know you will begin to understand why this series deserves a ten.

Hana to Akuma is full of sweet moments between the Viva and Hana, as well as very funny and witty comments exchanged from Vivi and his fellow demon friend Felton. True shoujo fans will not be disappointed by Hana to Akuma at all, and I believe those who just like a little bit of romance every now and then will find this to be worth their time.

And come on, have you seen Vivi? :D
~
ORIGINAL: Many people might see Hana to Akuma as your typical shoujo manga. However, I happen to enjoy this series very much. Granted the plot and story take a while to develop, but right now the manga is progressing fairly well. A big twist has just been revealed and I'm dying to know the ending.

The art of the manga isn't so bad either. I think the way the author draws Vivi at his different emotions really shows what kind of person he is. Hana is captured as a pure innocent happy-go-lucky girl. All the other character's appearances really do exemplify their nature.

The characters themselves are alright. Of course Hana and Vivi are my favorite because they are the lead roles. The other characters do have a chance to go through character development in the series, but sometimes I do get annoyed when they are dedicated a whole entire chapter. One of the hardest things to do in anime and manga is developing characters without over shadowing the main leads. Hana to Akuma is 'good' in developing characters, because I have seen worse.

Overall, this is one of my favorite manga series. I'm a shoujo fangirl period, and I feel like this manga shows a lot of shoujo characteristics. Vivi always ends up saving Hana. Hana yearns for Vivi, and later on he does too. Vivi tries do deny his feelings, as does Hana. They both get jealous when the other is with the opposite sex.. . and so on.

I recommend this manga to anyone who'd like to get a taste of shouja manga. It's a good way to start. Also, Vivi isn't half that bad XD

If I could have given this series a higher score than just 10, I would've. I have never written a review on any series before, but Hana to Akuma really impressed me!
I don't think my English is good enough in order for me to fully express just how fantastic I find this manga, which is such a shame, but I will try my best anyway!

What I love the most about Hana to Akuma is the way Vivi's so, so delicate and sweet love for Hana is presented. All his actions revolve around her and yet he dares not touch her in fear of tainting her purity. She's the only one he wants to protect, but he also sees himself as a great danger to her. Vivi never planned to get attached to Hana, but somehow it ended up happening and the way he keeps questioning himself and the way he keeps wanting Hana and then pushing her away show us just how confused he is. As for Hana, I was really pleased to witness her development! She slowly becomes more conscious of all these new emotions in her as she grows, and for every obstacles she has to overcome, she becomes more aware of things like responsibility, consideration and fear - which also becomes one of the reasons why she's reluctant to express her real feelings to Vivi. I don't want to reveal too much, so I'll just say, that the love between both main characters develops really naturally which I really like since lots of shoujo mangas tend to have those relationships that just happen too fast, thus making it impossible for me to actually understand it. But this love between Hana and Vivi really has depth. On the surface it seems fragile, as if it could just break any minute, but as the characters develop and I get further into the story, it soon becomes clear just how amazingly strong this love is. Their interaction with each other creates both super funny and sweet incidents but also hearbreakingly sad ones. I laughed, I squealed, I shed a tear or two and I cried my eyes out (well, I AM a little sentimental).

The artwork is absolutely stunning and very expressive, and the mangaka has really managed to show me every single character's feelings through her drawings. I really am amazed. Especially when the character is saying one thing but not meaning it - the "hidden" feelinga are then exposed anyway by the expression of the characters. Maybe I'm just blabbering now, but all in all I LOVE the art!

Since this is my first time doing a review I'm not exactly sure if I have done this right. Please do excuse my lack of order and everything seems to have just come out in one random flow (which it actually has xD).

But for now, this is what I had to say about Hana to Akuma. I bet I will someday read it once again, perceive everything differently and most likely edit this review ^_______^ But for now, I'm happy I got to write down my thoughts regarding this series!

I liked how the development of the story was paced. From the events that had lead to Hana's discoveries, to Vivi's ever-growing protectiveness, and Felten's little jokes. I loved how the characters had evolved during the story, and I love how the writers had beautifully fabricated a theme, and wove in that intricate pattern until the end.

Funny and lighthearted, but heartbreaking all the same, Hana to Akuma is certainly something worth reading.

I have completed this manga and I was disappointed when it was all over. The amount of romance was just right and fitted well into the story line. It is certainly one of my favorite manga's because it includes bits of all genres that make up a perfect romance.
It included some adventure, tragedy, comedy and drama as it made me cry! I would recommend this for anyone who loves supernatural, as it had a great balance of that genre. Although this manga is quite long, each chapter entertains you and I would call this one of the most unique manga's. You won't regret reading and rereading it time and time again.
There are a lot of characters with their own personalities which make the manga even more interesting, it would've been a bit better if the main character was shown growing up and how the interactions between her and other characters developed with her age although the child-like appearance did make the story appear more unique. Overall I really enjoyed the balance of all the genres and the art and story line really made this manga worthwhile.

I tried reading this manga a few years ago and dropped it after the first few chapters. Recently, I tried again and I'm so glad I finished it. The reason why I had dropped it previously was probably due to the art which isn't amazing but the story really does make up for it.

Story: Starts off fairly simple, almost boring, but really picks up the pace about a quarter of the way through. I adore how the love triangle isn't really a threat which is something that I love to see in shoujo manga (I despise love triangles) and the second male character values the friendship rather than becoming the 'nice guy'. The climax of the story is done so gracefully that you don't even notice it's happening until suddenly you're crying and the manga is over. Few stories have ever made me cry, the ending of Hana to Akuma was one of them. It's a happy ending -but of course Hana is a human. Beautiful story with just enough tension and just enough information to keep you reading.

Art: Honestly, the art is the only thing I can complain about but it's still *good*, it's just not amazing. The proportions can be a little off and sometimes the triangle chins make a return but honestly it's still such a beautiful manga.

Characters: Another shining point for this manga is its characters! Yes - they are based on shoujo tropes and cliches but they grow beyond them very soon and they all have very unique personalities which compliment each other. Their character design also is amazing - you'll never have trouble telling two characters apart and their looks really reflect their character. Kudos to the mangaka for not making Ayame the jealous ex because that would've made me drop the manga.

Enjoyment: I read it non-stop for a couple of days. I loved it so much I stayed up till 2am before my exam to read it - I just couldn't put it down! Also worth a few re-reads too.

Overall? If you like shoujo, read it because it's beautiful and emotional and builds on shoujo tropes. If you don't like shoujo - try it for a few chapters. ;)

I actually came across this manga many times before I decided to read it. The storyline of a girl falling in love with someone like a 'father figure' didn't appeal much to me. One day, I was bored and decided to read it. Let's just say the 'father figure'(Vivi, the one who picked her up) wasn't much as he seemed. It ended with his butler being the one taking care of Hana. So... I guess it's not that repulsive knowing that she fell in love with Vivi.

Story: Great storyline with slow progress but worth waiting as it has it's bit of fluff. There are little problems along the story as Hana starts to realise her love for Vivi but there was actually the ending problem/ the biggest one unfolding in the background. It was quite subtle.

Art: The art is simple in form of the background. The characters were really elaborate and different outfits so it's interesting to pause a while and look at its intricate drawings. The smiles in the story are really sweet and not many manga acheive that.

Character: The personality is simple. There's no underlying villian in the hero. Though some characters are a little mysterious in whether they approve of Hana's and Vivi's relationship. But all ends well.

Enjoyment: I was reading really fast, hoping to find out the storyline and yet still paused a while to view their clothing and those sweet scenes, especially their smiles. It's enjoyable whether you want to read it really fast or take your time. I would read it again, possibly one day.

Overall: I would recommend you to read it :) If you're worried about the fact that Hana is falling for a 'father figure' and it's a little repulse by that thought: trust me. Read it and you'll find out that it proceeds at a pace that makes the romance sweet.

P.S Vivi definitely looks older than the picture at Myanimelist.net. It made me misunderstand the story.

In general Hana to Akuma is just about the story of a cute girl and a 200 year old demon. Hana's still quite a little girl, and unlike many other shows that go down the old supernatural being + loli route, Hana actually acts rather kiddy rather than mature.

This threw me off for the first chapter, since the romance wasn't what I was expecting. But Hana quickly won me over with her cuteness. She's the epitome of innocence and easily triggers the "MUST. PROTECT." feeling. It's not hard to see why people would like her.

The romance is pretty innocent as well, which is great considering for most of the manga I can't imagine the two doing anything too mature. Their love is pretty cute to watch. Unlike the usual exciting or hard wrenching romance, this is pretty tame and adorable, being able to put a smile to my face easily.

Vivi's obvious soft spot for our little girl is adorable to watch. You'll expect Vivi to come running to save Hana from anything, since he can't let her out of his sights. Surprisingly, it's rather cute and I look forward to it rather than get annoyed about it. Vivi saving Hana is a recurring theme, so if you're looking for a strong female lead who doesn't need saving, you might be annoyed. (though personally, in this manga I think it's perfectly acceptable)

The art is alright and pleasant to look at, despite not having a huge range of facial expressions. Story wise it's pretty average. Not particularly creative or unpredictable. Things do progress the way I'd usually expect of such a manga, and I don't find myself getting drowned in feels either.

Despite all that, Hana to Akuma isn't boring. It's light and easy to read, and it's likeable and enjoyable. Things never get too annoying, and the story progresses easily and pretty satisfyingly. It's surprisingly funny at times too, which is a plus. The characters are generally likeable as well.

In short do adjust your expectations before reading. What you'll get is a pretty light and cute manga, perfect for shoujo fans who don't want to be disappointed. Don't expect too much dokidoki moments, but do expect cuteness and an overprotective guy. If you're like me, you'll be giggling at every cute thing, and enjoying the happenings as they come. If you're lookinn for something without too much investment and doesn't frustrate you, reading Hana to Akuma will be a great way to spend your time.

I read Hana to Akuma because many people seemed to think it was a good series. I don't even remember how many chapters I read, only that every chapter seemed to be as cliched as the other and dreadful to read...

Story: (5)
The story was one that has been over-used and already torn down to pieces. It's rather slow and filled with clichés. It seemed to me like the manga-ka just sew elements from different Shoujo series and turned into this series. Nothing about it is original at all, nor does it have any interesting twists.

Art: (7)
I'd call this the saving point of the series. The art is above average and was really pleasing to the eye. Each character design is different and very good; not once did I mistake a character for another. Backgrounds were rather nice, simple but kept the attention mostly on the character which is what I'm pretty sure the manga-ka wanted.

Character: (4)
One stereotype after another is what I felt as I looked at the characters on each panel. The main character, or "flower" of the series, is your typical childish girl for her age with overly exaggrated innoccense. We have the kind servants who adore the little girl, dot over her constantly, and are given no development at all. Then we have our male lead, which is also a very typical man for a shoujo series, with his attempts at being stoic but in fact he gushes over the girl every second. None of the characters are given much development, and this greatly disappoints me since this is a series that would actually be very good if it did.

Enjoyment: (3):
I had to force myself to read every chapter I did read, since I was hoping this would get better. I could only read so far before my patience ran out. This series is now put on my "dropped list" and will continue to be so.

Overall: (4)
I don't know what people see in this series, because I can hardly handle reading this. But if you like a series that has stereotypical character, corny romance, and good art this is something I recommend for you. I, for one, did not enjoy this manga and will now proceed to avoid it like a plague...

The story was like a fairytail where the princess is spoilt ~ tantrums and is stubborn because of lack of awareness about things in her life who happens to , by fate meet a devil who she transforms from a cold hearted, shrewd and an oblivious character into a man who dotes on a mere human and cares for her unreservedly . Thought he plot was interesting - about a devil adopting a kid , the story was bland with not a lot of exciting turns. The storyline became predictable after a few chapters which was a put off for me. as I really likes to be on my toes throughout the story. Emotional course of the story was of a girl in teens who is not that mature to understand and is naive to fall into traps because of which the story was not a shojou, but more like shojou-ai to me. The expressions of the character and the humour is light. The author beautifully wrapped the story with a happy ending and didn't stall it, which was commendable.

Hana to Akuma: The typical powerful and terrible bad guy whose heart is warmed by the protagonist's love. Not bad, but there are plenty of issues with this manga that might irritate or annoy anyone who's already wary of the shoujo genre.

Story: 6
Having read about half way through at the time I'm writing this, from what I've gathered, there's no big plot. Mr. Demon doesn't have any dark background or centuries-old curse that he must solve. Each chapter, consisting of 30-45 pages, is a story within itself; that is, the conflict is introduced and solved within 1-3 chapters. I will say that some of these conflicts I did not enjoy in the least. Most of them were shallow, trifle matters which spent an entire chapter or so getting solved. Basically, don't expect this manga to involve any action. There's no fighting, no set antagonist, no violence or psychological problems. The setting is not very realistic, and nor are the character's actions. It's obvious this manga was intended for younger audiences, what with the plot and all. Since I didn't absolutely loathe this

Art: 7
Keep in mind that I haven't read many mangas. That being said, the art didn't particularly annoy me or enchant me either. Shoujo mangas tend to emphasize on detail, but this one was more vague. I'm a stickler for character art though, and while I wasn't impressed, the character design was alright.

Character: 3
Ooh. This section really strikes a nerve. While the humor of the characters never failed to at least pull out a smile or two from me, they were extremely irritating.
Take the main character for instance. You would think a fifteen year old would be at least a bit mature, but the main protagonist Hana speaks in third person. Her drawings are as artistic as a two year old's, and she has about the equivalent IQ of one too. Most conflicts that pop up are due to Hana accepting some potion or pill from a complete stranger and getting some spell of some sort; or getting lost; or getting willingly captured; or whining about wanting something or other and having her caretaker lover-demon Vivi sacrifice himself to get it for her. Speaking of Vivi (what kind of name is that anyway? It's cringey af), he's the son of the demon king, heir to the throne. But since he was fed up with life, he decided to leave hell randomly for no reason and not come back ever. He's unaware of his feelings toward the protagonist but does whatever she wants anyway. And you think, aw isn't that sweet? But trust me, it won't be that sweet when she coos him to do this and that, buy her pretty dresses and then demand that he return them.

Enjoyment: 6
Hmm. I was a bit torn over this one. It's not like the manga was bland all the way through but more like it got worse and worse as it went along. The beginning made me excited; I thought I would see some character development from Vivi (cringe) because he seemed more dark and brooding. It was less of a character development though. Plus, as Hana became more and more like a whiny girl, you could say my "enjoyment" plummeted.

Overall: 5
Would I recommend this? Ehhh...not really. I'm a bit hesitant to recommend this manga but one of my mottos is that every manga is worth a try. Because while I may have hated the characters and lack of plot flow, it may be your cup of tea. Who knows?
And on an end note, I've decided to recommend some other mangas that I found much more well-executed but hold some of the same elements as this one (or lack some of the elements that may make you hesitate to read this manga). So if a particular part of this review stuck out at you as, "this is definitely a pass" or "but is there anything else with this element in it that's better written?" or you tried this manga and had one of those moments, then have a quick glance at my list.

Note: All mangas on this list are suited for the audiences of this manga and also have similar tags. Enjoy!
If you want more action/better plot execution/stronger female protagonist try:
-Noragami
Perhaps the best manga I've read ever (so far), it's not shoujo but I would absolutely recommend it for both male and female readers. Shoujo readers tend to lean more toward romance, and the romantic hints in this one are fangirl-worthy. The art is exquisite, and the non-romantic sections of the plot are still addicting enough that you can't flip the pages fast enough. The action in this one is superb, as it's the main protagonist's job to slay Ayakashi (monsters that come from tangled human emotions). Plus, it has an anime adaption of two seasons (so far) which is also well-done (and is perhaps my favorite anime as well).

If you want a stronger female protagonist/better or smoother plot execution/more action try:
-Yona of the Dawn
This is the shoujo manga with the strongest female protagonist I've read so far. Really, the character development is amazing too. In the beginning, she may act timid but if you keep reading you can see her grow stronger. The character development for all characters in this manga is also glorious.

If you want a better or more focused romance/higher quality art try:
-Kaichou wa maid sama
Really, there's none other like maid-sama. Honestly. This one is an absolute gem. The romance is slow (spanning around 50 of the 80 or so chapters) but it's there in every single chapter. I highly recommend for shoujo fans, because shoujo fans-male or female- will never fail to squeal and swoon. The protagonist is in denial of another boy's love toward her but it isn't frustrating that she keeps shoving him down; rather, her personality makes it all the more satisfying when she finally gives in. The art in this one is also beautiful; all the characters are gorgeous and that makes the romance even better. It also has an anime adaption.

This manga might probably be, no, it is one of the most amazing manga ive ever read so far.

Hana to akuma is a combination of supernatural,drama,comedy and most importantly romance genre. If you are looking for a great manga then you are most welcome to read this one. I would totally recommend this to you! I can ensure you that you will totally enjoy this manga if you dont skip a single page of it.

The art is fine. Its not super incredible or anything but rather normal. Storyline is interesting from the start although it is not completely genuine but later develops into something good that would make you wont able to stop reading and eventually love it. The two main characters are just lovable and cute in their own special way. My most favourite characters would be vivi and Lucifer.

When i first read this manga, (spoiler alert. Not really. It all depends on the reader. If you havent read this manga then its best if you dont continue reading this review) I knew that sooner or later .................................. But because I was just into it so much, I eventually forgot about it. When it really did happen, 'sigh' I seriously dont know whether I should be happy or sad. I guess, I felt both.

There are actually so many things about the story that Id like to say but am afraid of spoiling it for real.

Overall, it is worth your time. So hesitate no more and just read it.

Hana to Akuma (or Flower and Devil, for those who prefer) dosn't stray much from the safty of a formulated manga. Having said this, I still like it. Not as much as many of my manga tops but it's very readble but I don't ache for the next chapter with my entire heart. Nor does it make me excited when the main romance is shown.

Story:
Fairly basic one character trying to belong where she does not and vice versa. There are many manga which have pulled this off admirably well, for instance Ouran Highshool Host Club and Special A, both manga/anime where a 'poor' girl is thrown into a rich world (one slightly more belivable than the other, only slightly). Hana to Akuma however concerns the human and demon world. While this is a common mix, Hana to Akuma seems a bit too common. The ideas, themes, basic structure for the entire of the two worlds seems a little too basic, it's almost as if the writer/artist chose the two settings for the sake of custome, which there is no end to.

The plot also follows the basics of all shoujo manga that hits big, but not that big. The same 'steps' if you will. But what bothers me most is the length of these 'steps' or sagas. Some last up to only a chapter! I would except this sort of short lived sagas for fillers, jokes even, but even the most serious of eras finds it's self cut short by two chapters.

Art:
Basic, sometimes flat. Alot of the time the artist seems to have no idea of dimensions, nor do the characters faces match emotion. The eyes have hardly any emotion to them where there should be nothing but. I also found it hard as to where specific characters where aiming their speech at, unless directly facing the other with their full body.

Character:
Again, basic. Main girl is somewhat ditzy, new to love, hits all sorts of pitfalls that her stupid smile seems to get through, simeply because logic fails her. The main guy is cool, aloof and nearly perfect. Elenor is your local snob, I could go on but you get the idea. All formulated characters.

Overall, I enjoy hana to akuma but there are some blaring problems I just can't miss.

Pretty typical for a shoujo, but incredibly enjoyable nonetheless! I was pulled into this manga and barely stopped reading for hours on end. You can't help but fall in love with Hana's innocence, Vivi's suave and unwavering loyalty to Hana, and in the end, a really nice plot develops.

Art is really nice overall, though sometimes the characters seem to look a little skeletal, or something. But there are some really gorgeous scenes in this manga.

The plot is interesting and full of magic, driven by characters and their often hidden motivations. Lots of mystery. You're also always on tenterhooks about Hana and Vivi - it's obvious that they love each other, but when she's young, Vivi doesn't realize it, despite all their adorable moments together. Hana even comes through and isn't the typical little-girl-protected-by-her-man in a lot of places - she's really quite brave, and she does it all out of love.

A really fun manga to read, I promise. Funny and cute and often dramatic.

Well there is no need to tell what's the story about since this is already written.
I liked reading this manga but I have mixed feelings about it.
My first manga I read about "demonlove" was hanatsuki hime.
This is my second one.

What I liked about the manga is how the relationship between Hana & Vivi develops.
At the same time it was strange because you would expect it would only by a "father-daughter" relationship.

Sometimes I almost forget that most of the characters are demons.
This is because the author made the characters look more like humans ..the way they feel...think etc.
Even the demob king himself looked like a human !

I like how the artist payed attention to the design of some things.
She portrayed hana and her feelings very well.

Sometimes there are pretty examples or situations that at the same time refer to the feelings or relationship of Hana and vivi.
