With the current release of this in the Anime version, I've gotten curious about the Manga, and I have to say, it's just as great as the Anime.

I feel so warm and cudddly with all the day to day stories about these two, fascinated by the world that the inchlings live in. There's always something for them to do and learn, while meeting characters with so much personality that aren't just one-off chracters; They will be seen again, which is a thing many stories forget about, and they don't need to put much effort into meeting up with them, all the side characters have ... their own lives that they live with so many activities of their own that aren't dependant on Hakumei and Mikochi.

The level of detail in each scene really surprises me; It's a small but gorgeous world they live in, and the end-of-chapter tidbits really helps build it for you. From every feather and wing to the small grains of wood, it's quite beautiful and captures everything you love about art.

My favorite part is how well the world's technology and magic even work together. There's Tsukumogami flying about, but there's also trains. There's a Necromancer, but there's also skyscrapers. It's so balanced and neat that it just blends well and you don't have it feel out of place. No one's slinging fireballs left and right while robots are walking about; It's more balanced between the two.

If you want a Manga that will heal your sorrow; Pick Hakumei to Mikochi. If you want a Manga with a beautiful world; Pick Hakumei to Mikochi. If you want a cute Manga, pick Hakumei to Moikochi! It's such a wonderful series of plentiful stories and well-written setting and characters, that the best way to describe it would be just to read it!

Manga about two female midgets (or as i first called them - wingless forest fairies) and their life and andvetures... When I started to read the manga, I was amazed from how detailed is the art. In the beginning the art was more cute than the latest chapters. Most noticeable change has Hakumei, back then Hakumei had a weird cute face and doesn't have many emotions, but with every next chapter her face bacome more emotional. I also was amazed from the fact almost every background character have a different desing from each other. It's rare to see that.

I prefer manga with little or no ... sexualisation and for that reason I like H&M. Mainly because the anatomy doesn't allow this. It would be weird to see character with a big breast. Second the topics are not sexuality related, more like to see them how they get drunk rather than how they kissing and doing some biological things.

The story was funny and interesting. But because i'm a slow reader and the manga took me an around THREE months to read it to last translated chapter, I forgot many details for the early chapters... Many stories about adventures and old days. Some of them are the reasons for some events to occur, like Honey Home conflict in beginning, wow that was remembarful :D
Something I couldn't found or notice was the message of the manga, most of the mangas have to tell a message for the readers, but this manga doesn't have or as I said earlier I didn't notice.
For now doesn't have feel to end soon at least up to 98th chapter.

The manga curently have a over hundred chapters and only 98 of them are translated, that's because the manga is NOT POPULAR (rating is good) and translators don't occupy to translate the latest chapters. The manga gets a new volume every year, but the official english publishing is with an year delay.

My raiting is 8.5 from 10 because i'm diviting between 9 and 8, the reason is that I couldn't find the message and forgot some parts.
