This is a beautiful BL story. I'm extremely picky with BL and it mostly has to do with art style for me. Meguru Hinohara's art style is absolutely gorgeous and very soft and that's one of the biggest reasons I fell for this series.
Art put to the side and onto the story, I really enjoy the story. The God and human romance concept is very interesting and I like how they portray the Gods as being formed by stories created by humans instead of your typical high-powered god.
It's a very sweet story and I look forward to volume three coming out. Highly recommend ... this if you want something with a Soft and pretty art style and interesting story.

As someone who grew up with a variety of Shoujo and romance manga in general, this manga was right up my ally. It has been on my list for a while and after one episode of the anime, I couldn't wait for the next episode. So, I went onto the manga and honestly read all 23 chapters in one night. I'm a sucker for a good romance and this definitely did it for me. Here is my personal breakdown of my opinion:

Story: 8/10
While I do understand its somewhat of a Cinderella story, it is still beautiful and well written. I love the historical Japanese vibe ... it gives and the mystery surrounding the Main character (Miyo) background is also Interesting and continuously made me curious. I love me a good story with some trauma in the mix and boy, Miyo gets a lot of it. The soft romance is very sweet and wholesome it just makes you happy there is a sense of healing going on in the development of Miyo herself. Kiyoka Kudou I really enjoy how he comes across in the beginning and as you continue reading it, you just see how much of a sweet and loving man he really is.

Art: 9/10
I absolutely love the art. It's a very soft art style and the covers for each chapter and volume is absolutely stunning. There are scenes that give off that sweet romance energy and then scenes that give you that heartbreaking traumatic feeling within Miyo's life. The artist did a beautiful job capturing the emotions of the characters in my opinion.

Characters: 8/10
I personally enjoyed all the characters! They all help bring the story to life. I will say my least favorite is probably Kouji Tatsuishi. He's not a bad character or anything it's just more of he feels like he's just kind of there; it's not a bad thing though. I do hope to see more development with him because I do feel like he could be a great ally later on. I am currently only 23 chapters in at the moment so things could change.

Final Opinion: Manga is an 8/10 for me!
Beautiful art and story! If you are a fan of historical drama, romance especially the sweet lovey-dovey ones, traumatic backstory, and mystery, please do give this a try!

My friend suggested the manga to me after she heard it was different than the anime series. I decided to give it a shot myself as I was very curious. The manga is really good, and I honestly prefer it over the anime.
The story feels a lot more developed and fleshed out to where I want to keep reading. Towa's character feels more developed as well. Also feel the art style is very fitting for a "modern" Inuyasha sequel story. The only reason I marked it as an 8 at the moment is due to only one volume being out right now. Volume one did ... fantastic bringing Yashahime to life, now its feeling how the rest goes.
While I did enjoy the anime, the story is more well developed. I highly recommend it and I personally look forward to volume 2.

I very much enjoy Junji Ito's work and slowly reading more and more of his manga's. Remina was quite an interesting mix of horror and sci fi and Junji Ito's art style really adds into it. Junji Ito's portrayal of humans obsessions and anger is really incredible and quite disturbing. I tended to forget that I was reading about a horrifying planet but was quite distracted with just how messed up humans can me in the story.

However, I personally wasn't latched onto it as much as his other manga, "Uzumaki." I feel Remina is worth a try, but for me it's not really a favorite ... or something I was glued onto.

It's very hard to rate this manga because I have a more personal love for this series. This series has honestly helped be through rough times in my personal life so it holds a very special place in my heart.

Does the art give off One Piece Vibes? Yes. But the story is very much different and has a variety of main characters. Even minor characters are very lovable.

There are a lot of way too overpowered characters, and certain story elements that don't get explained or deep into later one. But the world is very beautiful, mysterious and full of wonder. If you love your fantasy, ... this is definitely a read for you.

If you're a One Piece fan, you may not care for it. I only say that cause I have many friends who love One Piece and don't like Fairy Tail and friends who like Fairy Tail and not One Piece. I still recommend trying the series out though, especially for those fantasy lovers out there!
