A lot better than book 1 led me to expect. I really enjoyed the characters and the developments, as well as the small side stories.

The art, of course, is divine.

Entretenido y con un dibujo precioso, pero un poco soso.

[Aitor · Rating 2 out of 5]

Meh, la verdad. Queda lejos del estilo del primer tomo, rindiéndose más a un argumento flojucho y a comedia slapstick que rehúye del absurdo anterior. Las dinámicas entre las protagonistas comienzan a hacerse repetitivas y, la verdad, prefiero cuando tienen historias individuales que les enseñan algo como seres sobrenaturales. El capítulo de la abuela y el gato, por ejemplo, es bastante decente; el resto se quedan a medias por tirar de clichés o, en su defecto, por confiar tanto en una comedia pochilla. Eso sí, jesús, qué dibujo se gasta Shirahama. Lo único que puedo decir enteramente positivo de esta serie es el increíble trazo de la autora.

Dibujo espectacular. Historietas reguleras sin pretensiones.

[Kim · Rating 4 out of 5]

These books aren't quite what I was expecting, a lot of individual stories. However one chapter in this left me in tears.

questo manga è bellissimo, sia divertente che commovente, mi sta piacendo tantissimo, peccato che il prossimo sia già l'ultimo volume💔

Eniale & Dewiela are back for world wide mischief once again!

If you are coming from the Witch Hat Atelier story (also created by Kamome Shirahama) and imaging this series about a set of frienemies consisting of an angel and demon will also have a rich over arching story abut the two of them then I fear you might be in for a bit of disappointment. In this series demons will be demons and angels will be angels as the main duo struggle to gather/save the souls of the dead for their team but it also contains stories within (because each book primarily deals with short lived antics involving Eniale and/or Dewiela) that can be fairly random in nature and can still manage to bring new characters to life and even give them time to develop as the titled duo are not necessarily important save to motivate the various stories into action.

Among the stories within these pages You will see the pair trying to collect wandering souls in Japan just to get a history lesson from the local deities for their troubles, a priest on the fast track to one day being a new angel discovers a new path when intrigue sweeps him off his feet...and the results are unexpected, Dewiela wins the right to a new soul from another demon and decided to collect but she discovers mixing pleasure and business is not always for the best, and finally Dewiela knows Eniale borrowed her earrings which are super important to her but the bubbly angel accidentally dropped one of them somewhere over the oceans of Earth starting a great quest to seek out something nearly impossible to find. All in all the stories are not bad and how each character reacts to another makes the stories even more fun but like Witch Hat Atelier one of the main attractions of this mangaka's books is the fantastic artwork that in this series can range from cute to sexy and even a little scary at times so you never know what might come up next as the series continues to randomly keeping you on your toes. :)

The art is gorgeous as always. Didn't really like the first story because I don't like the "young girl getting possessed by much older god" trope. The rest of the stories were fine, I think the cat one really stood out as the best though.

Historias cortas, unas mejores que otras. Un dibujo y edición preciosa. Mi historia favorita, la de la abuelita y el gato.

This volume is basically the same as the first one. More chapters filled with episodic comedy, and not a plot thread to be found. The chapters aren't really connected in the slightest. However, this volume got some actual chuckles out of me this time! There were some parts that I genuinely laughed at, even if they were standard comedy tropes. Also, if the artist ever wanted to make a hard pivot into horror manga, my god, she could. The one chapter was meant to be funny, but the way she drew some characters was so terrifying I didn't even want to look at the page. Another chapter was so incredibly bittersweet, it was very well done. I also liked the fact that it touched on the existence of other deities. God being represented as a six-winged pigeon with a halo is NOT something I expected, but it did get a giggle. Again, more amazing art and that's honestly the reason this keeps getting bumped up to a 4 star for me.

[H.P. Holo · Rating 5 out of 5]

A fantastic follow-up to the first volume! Less frenetic than its predecessor, this volume takes the time to tell some slightly more complicated stories, which vary from the morally intriguing to the heartwarming-while-simultaneously-heartbreaking.

Even so, it doesn't lack the ebullient absurdity that made the first so enjoyable. For every surprisingly complex chapter, there's one where a simple catalyst (like a lost earring) escalates into a(nother) divinely-inspired apocalypse, and as before, the art balances its beauty, drama, and comedy with aplomb. This series remains among my favorites!

[Jessika Hoover · Rating 5 out of 5]

Somehow, I loved this one even more than the first volume! Even though this follows the same episodic format, I think I’ve just become attached to Eni & Dewi. I will admit, however, that I could take or leave the side characters—although it was kinda fun seeing the exorcist again! This volume, in particular, did a really good job with pairing the touching & poignant storylines with the more light-hearted & silly ones. And, of course, the art is absolutely stunning in this one, as well. All in all, I had a lot of fun with this duo again, and Dewi is becoming a favorite for me.

[Aliks Pendragon · Rating 3 out of 5]

rien à redire sur le style -c'est toujours aussi incroyable, tous ces détails, on voit vraiment qu'elle sort des beaux arts-. mais je trouve toujours les cases brouillonnes (parfois j'ai dû faire demi-tour pour relire et comprendre); fait néanmoins pardonnable à mes yeux si l'on prend en compte que c'est son premier manga. très léger, beaucoup d'humour, j'aime toujours autant Dewi. beaucoup de symbolisme aussi.

[Maia · Rating 2 out of 5]

This comic is more visually beautiful than it is actually interesting to read. Eniale and Dewiela fight with each other over the soul of a child with a sick mother, then over a priest who feel in love with a criminal. One chapter is set in Japan and shows a conflict in which Japanese gods and spirits prove more powerful than Christian ones. I don't really have any emotional investment in any character or any story line but I'll probably read the last book in the series anyway.

Vol. 1 ★★★☆☆

Gonna be the outlier and say this is better than Witch Hat Atelier. Whereas Witch Hat suffers from pacing issues, Shirahama's writing really gets to shine in these hilarious, episodic stories. Chapter 8 is definitely my favorite from this series by far. It also made me realize I like Dewiela way more than Eniale.

[Dagmar Sola · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sinceramente, me fijo más en el dibujo que en la historia ^^''.
Sigue la misma fórmula que el tomo anterior: historias cortas contando las desventuras de Eniale y Dewiela, y comedia. Aún así, llega a tener su toque emotivo.

(¡He pillado una referencia! Y mira que me cuesta, pero aquí era tan obvio. Ha sido divertido xD).

3.5 stars

the art is gorgeous as always and i laughed out loud a few times, but this had a couple manga tropes i don't particularly care for that bumped it lower than the first volume

the art though, seriously. so much care put into every character + we got some great gore and gross-out art that i haven't seen from this mangaka before!

[Yaiza · Rating 5 out of 5]

Me ha gustado mucho más que el primero, el dibujo es espectacular como siempre. Creo que es el manga más bien dibujado que he leído, lo único que cambiaría son las ropas de las mujeres... Pero por todo lo demás un 10!

[Nicole · Rating 3 out of 5]

2.75 stars. Same as volume 1: beautiful art, eh comedy. The world building feels incompatible with the tone of the story, like if you look at the internal logic of any of the stories straight on instead of with the corner of your eye there's nothing actually there

Me encanta la traducción de este manga.

[MusokaSakebi · Rating 3 out of 5]

Molto carino. Brevi capitoli anche se volevo sapere di più

[Aurora · Rating 3 out of 5]

Still cute. But I’m having a bit of a hard time finding something to hang onto, emotionally, because I don’t really like the main characters and the side characters swap out so frequently?

[Loz · Rating 4 out of 5]

A slapstick romp!

[Ignacio Mazuecos · Rating 3 out of 5]

Once again the best of this is the art, while the story is just average comedy.

[Manmangaboy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interesting exorcist love story. Enjoyable short stories.
