Well, I think in Akuma De Sourou(the devil does exist) the way she drew the lips were so great. I hate Kayano and how she’s obsessed with Takeru, but if she wasn’t then she wouldn’t be Kayano^^… Overall I love the drama and everything!

Crimson Hero is GOOD but i got annoyed in the middle…But what I like about it is that its nothing like Akuma De Sourou! Sometimes the writer puts some similarities in her mangas, but those two are completely different. x]]

I think the story is really awesome! Takeru has the attitude…and of course (duh) the looks!! The story is great. The plot is nice and everything in the story is very cool. I think it really ROCKS!

The story The Devil Does Exist is really cool. I’m already finished with the first one and it was amazing. Right now, I’m still working on the second book. I hope all the other series will be as cool as this one.

What I’ve read of and about this title hasn’t won me over, but I do love the title… it nicely captures a feeling of adolescent melodrama.

At least, it does once you realize it’s not a horror manga.

Mely: I do like to see how the art develops over time. The work in Crimson Hero looked less “typical” somehow. Anyway, I’m glad to know that my first impressions seemed to hold for the first few volumes of Crimson Hero.

Bethany: Glad you got the manga
I don’t know, I wasn’t too crazy about Tokyo Boys & Girls, but I think it came out much much earlier in Aihara’s career, so there is no way it isn’t going to suffer greatly in comparison to Hot Gimmick.

I think I liked Crimson Hero better too…something about the delinquent club ground *thing* in DDE just got on my nerves after a while. But of course, Hot Gimmick does beat them both. =3 Oooh how I love Ryo!!
When I first read HG though, I had to reread it because it confused me a little…plus some of the chars have the tendency to look the same, or like other chars… ==_==

I read Tokyo Boys&Girls last night, and I must say I was sooo disappointed! The story jumped around a little, and the art is so different from Hot Gimmick. I was like =O
And my sister refused to read it because ‘it sucked so bad’. I thought the overall story was ok, but I don’t think I’ll be collecting that series…

Ps-I just checked the mail and the manga came! *huggles* Thankss, and I can’t wait to read them tonight! ^___^

Having finished The Devil Does Exist and read about three volumes of Crimson Hero in scanlations, I’d agree with you — Crimson Hero is much stronger. It’s got better character development and more interesting conflicts, whereas with The Devil Does Exist I felt pretty impatient with characters for getting worked up about problems that struck me as ridiculous. It didn’t help that I didn’t find Takeru at all convincing.

It’s nice to see the ways in which the mangaka developed over time, though.
