Saint Beast series itself is alright. This particular selection of episodes put together had no real story plot and ended poorly. If writers wanted to have a better fan base they should have added more episodes and explained more of went on in the ending so the Saint Beast episodes would make sense. Watching this alone would confuse anyone. I fortunately found Tenshi no Shippo first which made watching the Saint Beast episode series easier to understand. I would not recommend watching any of the saint beast related episodes without watching Tenshi no Shippo first. For character development there wasn't really anything building other than ... jealousy, which is not even that of a main character. Those who have watched Tenshi no Shippo first understand the attractions of the Saint Beast characters better seeing as they have potential wives. I do like the connection between the two series but wish they would have connected them in more ways rather than only connect with saint beasts and goddess. Saint Beasts: Kouin Jojishi Tenshi tan should be followed by Tenshi No Shippo and all related before moving onto Saint Beasts which seems to connect as the second season to Saint Beast: Kouin Jojishi Tenshi Tan. Honestly I gave this anime a middle grade as well as all its connections as I believe it has potential, however it was either not given the chance to use it, or they wished not to expand on what this anime truly could be. I wouldn't say it is a complete waste of time, but to those who are unable to sit through an anime that has no true depth, this is an anime you might want to stay away from. Otherwise I would say try to enjoy it and connecting the dots is probably one of the better things about it. If you can be satisfied with that please enjoy.

Kaikan Phrase I found just delightful. This was my second series I read by Shinjou, Mayu. I have read so many of her books and each is different with its own unique story line. The artwork is great, and the story line is just as good. Falling for such a man whom is handsome and famous is another one of those girly dream. There is nothing wrong with dreaming. Everyone should keep dreaming. Mayu’s works tells us that and even though not all over them end with a happy ending, we still learn this is true.

Love celeb is I think my # 2 if not #1 favorite manga. Written by Shinjou, Mayu with a great story to boot. One thing I really love about this story was it introduced me to such a great artist and writer. Shinjou really does well with all of her works. She is well known for the way she draws her male character. The males contain long necks, fingers, legs, broad shoulders and narrowed eyes and pointy chins. With such a unique artistic talent it is very different from anything else in the manga world. Kirara is a character I can see myself connecting ... with. Everyone at some point in their lives wish to be successful and possibly famous. Kiara is just like us in her dreams in becoming an idol. Like many people she seems to have morals that cause her resist losing her virginity. Many woman/girls dream of finding a man like Gin who teats her well, truly loves her, and has the ability to hold back his desires even if he wishes not to.

Zettai Kareshi or Absolute Boyfriend is ranked one of my top five mangas to read. The story line is fresh and it make the reader wonder on the boundaries of love and just how far you can take it. Since Night is so human like and shows emotions and personality as such it is hard to remember he is an android. This is great for the story since it really pulls the reader into the book. The series is so sweet and I love all the character. Each character balances out the next. I do wish that the character Gaku Namikiri showed up in the ... manga just a bit more, but his presence was used enough for the story plot. Night’s character was just perfect. It was easy to imagine someone in his place acting so childlike but remain loving and romantic.

The story line hasn't been anything similar to what I have read in the past. It was very different from anything else. The ending was not something I was expecting. My favorite character was Hakuron. I rather enjoyed his character a lot. Shinjou's artwork is so amazing. Her male characters are the best I have seen by far. I would give to have such artistic talents. All of her works have similar story plots and art works, however I think this one is different from the other works I have read such as Kaikan(Sensual) Phrase, Love Celeb, After School Wedding, Ai wo Utau Yori Ore ... ni Oborero, Fiancée Shitai, or Sexy Guardian. All these works and many more contain similar female personalities and male dominance and lustful attitudes.

However, I did have one problem reading the series of books. After so many chapters I had to stop reading it. I felt overwhelmed with the amount of drama that happened all at once. Most of the action happens in the middle of the manga. I gave up reading it for a while and because I only had two volumes left to go I finished reading it today. I recommend reading this manga, even if it takes a while to finish.
