Summary:


Abandoned outside an orphanage when he was just a baby, Yuki is a boy with no idea where he came from or who he really is. Now in high school, the teen is plagued by odd dreams, death threats and an ability to see the negativity that dwells within people's hearts. One night after being lured into a trap, a mysterious and handsome man named Zess saves Yuki from being killed before disappearing into the night. Then, with the sudden arrival of his long-lost brother, the orphan finds himself pulled into a new world where he can not only learn about his powers and how to control them, but also becomes aware of the evils that lurk in the darkness. Can Yuki finally find the place he truly belongs, and just why is Zess so protective over the young boy?


********


This is a shojo anime/manga so it is drawn with a flowery style. I only watched it because the name kept coming up and I thought the title sounded pretty cool. Toko Murasame is the only female in the show with a real part, but thats common for Shounen-ai and yaoi anime.


The show starts slow, but interesting. During the show Yuki gets new friends, finds out who he really is, why Luka is so important to him, a few magic fights, and a somewhat happy ending for the anime. The manga is ongoing. 


The weirdest thing about the anime besides the fangirl comments, is Sodom. Sodom was a winged bat/ cat monster thing that at some point turned into a cat-ear devil-tail little kid. He was also kinda treated like Yuki's and Luka's baby.


I give it a 4.5 out of 5.
