This one is a lot of fun! To Western readers it is also rather original, giving us a glimpse of Japanese folklore and a bit of the sauciness that some manga has in abundance. Cross dressing, people of one sex in bodies of the opposite sex, mistaken identity and lots of humor make this a very amusing and tangled tale indeed. There is nothing to shock however, and it is all done with the right light touch, putting me in mind a little of a few episodes of TV shows like Buffy and Xena. The illustrations make the story come to vibrant life, with some rather unusual school uniforms, some neat action shots and Lapan’s imagination being shown in a way mere words could not easily convey. This is my favorite of the first batch from Yen Press, and I look forward to seeing what on earth (or in the spirit realm) happens next.
