For breaking the rules and lending a helping hand to his beloved Ryuka, who is en route to the moon, the Moon Spirit, Ixto, finds himself a jailbird, imprisoned by the powers that be! And far from being understanding of his lover's sacrifice, Ryuka is hopping mad that Ixto took it upon himself to make such a drastic decision without consulting him first! Though Ryuka stubbornly continues on his celestial destination, do caustic words await these enchanted lovers at the end of the quest instead of sweet kisses?!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Ryuka, in search of love, is trying to reach the Moon Spirit Ixto, and a series of chores have to be done before he can get there. Helping him, Ryuka has such things as a cat boy and someone who can transform back and forth between a human and a horse. This is a yaoi series, centering on erotic relationships between men, with a character named Widow the main exemplar, though his relationships are gratuitous and not based on love or affection. There are quite a few details and characters, causing some confusion those who did not read the first volume will have a hard go of it. Artwork for yaoi is often, though not always, drawn with finesse and beauty, so by comparison the art in this manga is quite basic. This is a light read and high fantasy mixed with some homoeroticism, and while parts can be confusing, the detail on folklore and spirits is fascinating.
